     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of these premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

     1. Same Terms. All terms used herein which are defined in the Original Credit Agreement shall have the same meanings when used herein, unless the context hereof otherwise requires or provides. In addition, all references in the Loan Documents to the “Agreement” shall mean the Original Credit Agreement, as amended by this Second Amendment to Credit Agreement, as the same shall hereafter be amended from time to time. In addition, the following term has the meaning set forth below:

     “Effective Date” means November 24, 2010.

     2. Amendment to Original Credit Agreement. On the Effective Date, the definition of “Maturity Date” set forth in the Original Credit Agreement shall be amended as follows:

               “Maturity Date” means November 23, 2011.

     3. Certain Representations. Each Borrower represents and warrants that, as of the Effective Date: (a) each Loan Party has full power and authority to execute this Amendment, and this Amendment executed by each Loan Party constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, and other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally; (b) each Security Document remains in full force and effect; and (c) no authorization, approval, consent or other action by, notice to, or filing with, any governmental authority or other person is required for the execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party thereof except for the approvals, consents, and authorizations, which have been duly obtained, taken, given, or made and are in full force and effect. In addition, each Borrower represents that all representations and warranties contained in the Original Credit Agreement are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Effective Date except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they shall be true and correct as of such earlier date.

     4. Limitation on Agreements. The modifications set forth herein are limited precisely as written and shall not be deemed (a) to be a consent under or a waiver of or an amendment to any other term or condition in the Original Credit Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, or (b) to prejudice any right or rights which Lender now has or may have in the future under or in connection with the Original Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents, each as amended hereby, or any of the other documents referred to herein or therein. This Amendment shall constitute a Loan Document for all purposes.

     5. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all of which constitute one instrument. In making proof of this Amendment, it shall not be necessary to produce or account for more than one counterpart thereof signed by each of the parties hereto.

     6. Incorporation of Certain Provisions by Reference. The provisions of Section 9.13 of the Original Credit Agreement captioned “Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Etc.” and the provisions of Section 9.14 of the Original Credit Agreement captioned “Dispute Resolution Provision” are incorporated herein by reference for all purposes.
