THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED AGREEMENT is made this 21st day of Decmeber, 2006 between Wells Fargo Retail Finance II, LLC (hereinafter, “Wells Fargo” or “Lender”), a Delaware limited liability company with its principal executive offices at One Boston Place, Boston, Massachusetts 02108, and iParty Retail Stores Corp., a Delaware corporation (hereinafter, “iParty Retail” or a “Borrower”) and iParty Corp., a Delaware corporation (hereinafter, “iParty Corp.” or a “Borrower” and together with iParty Retail, the “Borrowers”), each with its principal executive offices at 270 Bridge Street, Dedham, Massachusetts 02026, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and benefits to be derived herefrom.

WHEREAS, the Lender and Borrowers are party to the Existing Financing Agreements; and

WHEREAS, by this Agreement, each Borrower desires to acknowledge and reaffirm the Existing Obligations pursuant to the Existing Financing Agreements (as modified and restated hereby) and acknowledge their continuing liabilities to the Lender, and the Lender desires to continue to make loans, advances and financial accommodations to the Borrowers;

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual conditions and agreements set forth in this Agreement, and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Borrowers and Lender agree as follows:

WITNESSETH:

ARTICLE 1 - THE REVOLVING CREDIT

1-1.          Establishment of Revolving Credit.

(a)           The Lender continues in effect a revolving line of credit (the “Revolving Credit”) in the Borrowers’ favor pursuant to which the Lender, subject to, and in accordance with, this Agreement, shall make loans and advances and otherwise provide financial accommodations to and for the account of the Borrowers as provided herein. The amount of the Revolving Credit shall be determined by the Lender by reference to Availability, as calculated from time to time hereafter in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. All loans made by the Lender under this Agreement, and all of the Borrowers’ other Liabilities to the Lender under or pursuant to this Agreement, are payable as provided herein.

(b)           The Lender agrees, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to make loans to the Borrowers in an amount outstanding not to exceed Availability at any one time.

(c)           Availability shall be based upon Borrowing Base Certificates furnished as provided in Section 9-4, below.

(d)           Anything to the contrary in Section 1-1(b) above notwithstanding, Lender, in the exercise of its discretion, may reduce Advance Rates or create Reserves without declaring an Event of Default if it determines that (i) there has occurred a Material Adverse Change; or (ii) Borrowers are not in compliance with covenants set forth in EXHIBIT 9-l2(a).

(e)           The proceeds of loans and advances under the Revolving Credit shall be

1

used solely in accordance with the Business Plan for working capital purposes of the Borrowers and for its Capital Expenditures, all solely to the extent permitted by this Agreement.

1-2.          Availability.  The Lender does not have any obligation to make any loan or advance, or otherwise to provide any credit for the benefit of the Borrowers such that the outstanding principal balance of the Loan Account exceeds Availability. The making of loans, advances, and credits and the providing of financial accommodations in excess of Availability is for the benefit of the Borrowers and does not affect the obligations of the Borrowers hereunder; such loans, advances, credits, and financial accommodations constitute Liabilities. The making of any such loans, advances, and credits and the providing of financial accommodations, on anyone occasion such that Availability is exceeded shall not obligate the Lender to make any such loans, credits, or advances or to provide any financial accommodation on any other occasion nor to permit such loans, credits, or advances to remain outstanding.

1-3.          Risks of Value of Inventory.  The Lender’s reference to a given asset in connection with the making of loans and advances and the providing of financial accommodations under the Revolving Credit and/or the monitoring of compliance with the provisions hereof shall not be deemed a determination by the Lender relative to the actual value of the asset in question. All risks concerning the saleability of the Inventory are and remain upon the Borrowers. All Collateral secures the prompt, punctual, and faithful performance of the Liabilities whether or not relied upon by the Lender in connection with the making of loans, credits, and advances and the providing of financial accommodations under the Revolving Credit.

1-4.          Procedures Under Revolving Credit.

(a)           The Borrowers may request loans and advances under the Revolving Credit, each in an amount specified by the Borrowers.  Each such request shall be in such manner as may from time to time be acceptable to the Lender and shall specify the Type of loan or advance to be made under the Revolving Credit.  In the event that the Borrowers do not specify the Type of loan or advance to be made under the Revolving Credit, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested a Base Rate Loan.

(b)           The Lender, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, will provide the Borrowers with the loan or advance so requested, if such request is received by Noon, Boston time on a Banking Day, by the end of business on that Banking Day; otherwise, by the end of the then next Banking Day. The Lender may revise such schedule, from time to time, by giving notice to Borrowers at least one day in advance.

(c)           Provided that Availability will not be exceeded (but subject, however, to Subsection 1-4(i), below (which deals with the effect of a Suspension Event)), a loan or advance under the Revolving Credit so requested by the Borrowers shall be made by the transfer of the proceeds of such loan or advance to the Funding Account.

(d)           A loan or advance shall be deemed to have been made under the Revolving Credit upon:

(i)            The Lender’s initiation of the transfer of the proceeds of such loan

2

or advance in accordance with the Borrowers’ instructions (if such loan or advance is of funds requested by the Borrowers).

(ii)           The charging of the amount of such loan or advance to the Loan Account (in all other circumstances).

(e)           In the absence of willful neglect or bad faith on the part of the Lender, there shall not be any recourse to, nor liability of, the Lender on account of:

(i)            Any delay in the making of any loan or advance requested under the Revolving Credit.

(ii)           Any delay in the proceeds of any such loan or advance constituting collected funds.

(iii)          Any delay in the receipt, and/or any loss, of funds which constitute a loan or advance under the Revolving Credit, the wire transfer of which was initiated by the Lender in accordance with wire instructions provided to the Lender by the Borrowers.

(f)            The Lender may rely on any request for a loan or advance or financial accommodation which the Lender, in good faith, believes to have been made by a person duly authorized to act on behalf of the Borrowers and may decline to make any such requested loan or advance or to provide any such financial accommodation until the Lender is furnished with such documentation concerning that Person’s authority to act as may be satisfactory to the Lender.

(g)           A request by the Borrowers for any loan or advance or financial accommodation under the Revolving Credit or of the issuance of an L/C shall be irrevocable and shall constitute certification by the Borrowers that as of the date of such request, each of the following is true and correct:

(i)            There has been no Material Adverse Change.

(ii)           The Borrowers are in compliance with, and have not breached any of, the covenants contained in this Agreement.

(iii)          Each representation which is made herein or in any of the Loan Documents is then true and complete as of and as if made on the date of such request, except for any representation which refers to a specific date, which representation shall be true and correct as of such date.

(iv)          No Suspension Event is then in existence.

(h)           The Borrowers shall immediately become indebted to the Lender for the amount of each loan or advance under or pursuant to this Agreement when such loan or advance is deemed to have been made.

(i)            Upon the occurrence from time to time of any Suspension Event, the Lender may suspend the Revolving Credit immediately and shall not be obligated, during such

3

suspension, to make any loan or advance or to provide any financial accommodation hereunder.

(j)            The Borrowers may request that the Lender cause the issuance of L/C’s for the account of the Borrowers.

(i)            Each such request shall be in such manner as may from time to time be reasonably acceptable to the Lender.

(ii)           The Lender will endeavor to cause the issuance of any L/C so requested by the Borrowers, provided that the requested L/C is in form reasonably satisfactory to the Lender and if so issued:

(A)                              The aggregate Stated Amount of all L/C’s then outstanding, does not exceed Two Million ($2,000,000.00) Dollars.

(B)                                The expiry of the L/C is not later than the earlier of thirty (30) days prior to the Maturity Date or the following:

(I)                                    L/C’s other than Documentary L/C’s: One (1) year from initial issuance.

(II)                                Documentary L/C’s: forty five (45) days from issuance; and

(C)                                Availability would not be exceeded.

(iii)          The Borrowers shall execute such documentation to apply for and support the issuance of an L/C as may be required by the Issuer.

(iv)          There shall not be any recourse to, nor liability of, the Lender on account of:

(A)                              Any delay or refusal by an Issuer to issue an L/C.

(B)                                Any action or inaction of an Issuer on account of or in respect to, any L/C.

(v)           The Borrowers shall reimburse the Issuer, immediately upon the drawing under any L/C, for the amount of such drawing. In the event that the Borrowers fail to so reimburse the Issuer, the Borrowers immediately shall reimburse the Lender for the amount of such drawing. To the extent which the Borrowers fail to so reimburse the Issuer or the Lender, the Lender, without the request of the Borrowers, may advance under the Revolving Credit any amount which the Borrowers are so obligated to pay to the Lender or the Issuer, or for which the Borrowers, the Issuer, or the Lender becomes obligated on account of, or in respect to, any L/C. Such advance shall be made whether or not a Suspension Event is then in existence or such advance would result in Availability being exceeded. Such action shall not constitute a waiver of the Lender’s rights under Section 1-7(b), below.

4

1-5.          The Loan Account.

(a)           An account (“Loan Account”) shall be opened on the books of the Lender in which Loan Account a record may be kept of all loans made under or pursuant to this Agreement and of all payments thereon.

(b)           The Lender may also keep a record (either in the Loan Account or elsewhere, as the Lender may from time to time elect) of all interest, fees, service charges, costs, expenses, and other debits owed the Lender on account of the Liabilities and of all credits against such amounts so owed.

(c)           All credits against the Liabilities shall be conditional upon final payment to the Lender of the items giving rise to such credits. The amount of any item credited against the Liabilities which is charged back against the Lender for any reason or is not so paid shall be a Liability and shall be added to the Loan Account, whether or not the item so charged back or not so paid is returned.

(d)           Except as otherwise provided herein, all fees, service charges, costs, and expenses for which the Borrowers are obligated hereunder are payable on demand. In the determination of Availability, the Lender may deem fees, service charges, accrued interest, and other payments or deposits as having been advanced under the Revolving Credit if such amounts are then due and payable inclusive of deposits for fees whether incurred at the time of deposit or as duly accounted for in accordance with the terms set forth herein (provided, however, that fees which are earned hereunder but not yet due and payable shall not be deemed as having been advanced under the Revolving Credit).

(e)           The Lender, without the request of the Borrowers, may advance under the Revolving Credit any interest, fee, service charge, or other payment to which the Lender is entitled from the Borrowers pursuant hereto and may charge the same to the Loan Account notwithstanding that such amount so advanced may result in an Overadvance. Such action on the part of the Lender shall not constitute a waiver of the Lender’s rights under Section 1-7(b), below. Any amount which is added to the principal balance of the Loan Account as provided in this Section shall bear interest at the interest rate applicable from time to time to the unpaid principal balance of the Loan Account.

(f)            Any statement rendered by the Lender to the Borrowers concerning the Liabilities shall be considered correct and accepted by the Borrowers and shall be conclusively binding upon the Borrowers unless the Borrowers provide the Lender with written objection thereto within twenty (20) days from the mailing of such statement, which written objection shall indicate, with particularity, the reason for such objection. The Loan Account and the Lender’s books and records concerning the loan arrangement contemplated herein and the Liabilities shall be prima facie evidence and proof of the items described therein.

1-6.          The Master Note.  The obligation to repay loans and advances under the Revolving Credit, with interest as provided herein, may be evidenced by a note (the “Amended and Restated Master Note”) in the form of EXHIBIT 1-6, annexed hereto, executed by the Borrowers.  Neither the original nor a copy of the Master note shall be required, however, to

5

establish or prove any Liability.  In the event that the Master Note is ever lost, mutilated, or destroyed, the Borrowers shall execute a replacement thereof and deliver such replacement to the Lender.

1-7.          Payment of Loan Account.

(a)           The Borrowers may repay all or any portion of the principal balance of the Loan Account from time to time until the Termination Date.

(b)           The Borrowers, without notice or demand from the Lender, shall pay the Lender that amount, from time to time, which is necessary so that the balance of the Loan Account does not exceed Availability.

(c)           The Borrowers shall pay the then entire unpaid balance of the Loan Account and all other Liabilities on the Termination Date.

1-8.          Interest.

(a)           The unpaid principal balance of the Revolving Credit  Loans that constitute Base Rate Loans shall bear interest, until repaid (calculated based upon a 360-day year and actual days elapsed), at an annual rate equal to the aggregate of Base plus the Applicable Margin (for Base Rate Loans), provided, further that in no event shall interest be in excess of the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.

(b)           Following the occurrence of any Event of Default (and whether or not the Lender exercises any of the Lender’s rights on account of such Event of Default), all loans and advances made under the Revolving Credit shall bear interest, through the End Date, at a rate which is the aggregate of that provided for in Section 1-8(a), above, plus two (2%) percent per annum.

(c)           Accrued interest on Base Rate Loans shall be payable:

(i)            Monthly in arrears on the first day of the month next following that during which such interest accrued.

(ii)           On the Termination Date.

(iii)          On the End Date.

1-9.          Fees.  Borrowers shall pay to the Lender the following fees:

(a)           Collateral Monitoring Fees. On the execution date hereof and on the first day of each month thereafter during the term hereof, a collateral monitoring fee in the amount of Two Thousand ($2,000) Dollars.

(b)           Unused Line Fee. On the first day of each month during the term of this Agreement, an “Unused Line Fee” in an amount equal to one quarter of one (0.25%) percent of the Average Unused Portion of the Credit Limit.

6

(c)           Financial Examination, Legal Investigation, Documentation, and Appraisal Fees. Subject to the provisions of Article 9-9, Lender’s actual charges paid or incurred for each financial analysis and examination (i.e., audits) of Borrowers performed by personnel employed by Lender; Lender’s actual charges paid or incurred for each appraisal of the Collateral performed by personnel employed by Lender; and, the actual charges paid or incurred by Lender if it elects to employ the services of one or more third Persons to perform legal investigation, documentation financial analysis and examinations (i.e., audits) of Borrowers or to appraise the Collateral.

(d)           In addition to any other right to which the Lender is then entitled on account thereof, the Lender may assess an additional fee payable by the Borrowers on account of the accommodation of Lender to the Borrowers’ request that the Lender depart or dispense with one or more of the administrative provisions of this Agreement and/or the Borrowers’ failure to comply with any of such provisions.

(i)            By way of non-exclusive example, the Lender may assess a fee on account of any of the following:

(A)                              The Borrowers’ failure to pay that amount which is necessary so that the principal balance of the Loan Account does not exceed Availability (as required under Section l-7(b ), above).

(B)                                The providing of a loan or advance under the Revolving Credit such that Availability would be exceeded.

(C)                                The providing of a same Banking Day loan requested after the time set forth in Section l-4(b )(i), above.

(D)                               The Borrowers’ failure to provide a financial statement or report within the applicable time-frame provided for such report under Article 9, below.

(ii)           The inclusion of the foregoing right on the part of the Lender to assess a fee does not constitute an obligation, on the part of the Lender, to waive any provision of this Agreement under any circumstances. The assessment of any such fee in any particular circumstance shall not constitute the Lender’s waiver of any breach of this Agreement on account of which such fee was assessed nor a course of action on which the Borrowers may rely.

(e)           The Borrowers shall not be entitled to any credit, rebate or repayment of any Collateral Maintenance Fee, Commitment Fee or other fee previously earned by the Lender pursuant to this Section notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement or suspension or termination of the Lender’s obligation to make loans and advances hereunder.

1-10.        Lender’s Discretion.

(a)           Each reference in the Loan Documents to the exercise of discretion or the like by the Lender shall be to the Lender’s exercise of its judgment, in good faith, based upon the

7

Lender’s consideration of any such factor as the Lender, taking into account information of which the Lender then has actual knowledge, believes:

(i)            Will or reasonably could be expected to affect the value of the Collateral, the enforceability of the Lender’s security and collateral interests therein, or the amount which the Lender would likely realize therefrom (taking into account delays which may possibly be encountered in the Lender’s realizing upon the Collateral and likely Costs of Collection).

(ii)           Indicates that any report or financial information delivered to the Lender by or on behalf of the Borrowers are incomplete, inaccurate, or misleading in any material manner or was not prepared in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement.

(iii)          Suggests the likelihood that the Borrowers will become the subject of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding.

(iv)          Constitutes a Suspension Event.

(b)           In the exercise of such judgment, the Lender also may take into account any of the following factors:

(i)            Those included in, or tested by, the definitions of “Acceptable Inventory”, “Retail”, and “Cost”.

(ii)           The current financial and business climate of the industry in which the Borrowers compete (having regard for the Borrowers’ position in that industry).

(iii)          Material changes in or to the mix of the Borrowers’ Inventory.

(iv)          Seasonality with respect to the Borrowers’ Inventory and pattern of the Borrowers’ retail sales versus that which was projected.

(v)           Material changes in Availability versus that which was projected.

(vi)          Such other factors relating to the Borrowers as the Lender determines as having a material bearing on credit risks associated with the providing of loans and financial accommodations to the Borrowers.

(c)           The burden of establishing the failure of the Lender to have acted in a reasonable manner in such Lender’s exercise of discretion shall be the Borrowers’.

1-11.        Fees for L/C’s.

(a)           On the first day of each month during the term hereof, Borrowers shall pay to Lender the amount (in Dollars) that is equal to the result of one (1.0%) percent per annum times the aggregate Stated Amount of all L/C’s outstanding at any time during the previous month.

8

(b)           In addition to the fee to be paid as provided in Subsection 1-11 (a), above, the Borrowers shall pay to the Lender (or to the Issuer, if so requested by the Lender), on demand, all customary and commercially reasonable issuance, processing, negotiation, amendment, and administrative fees and other amounts charged by the Issuer on account of, or in respect to, any L/C.

1-12.        Concerning L/C’s.

(a)           None of the Issuer, the Issuer’s correspondents, or any advising, negotiating, or paying bank with respect to any L/C shall be responsible in any way for:

(i)            The performance by any beneficiary under any L/C of that beneficiary’s obligations to the Borrowers.

(ii)           The form, sufficiency, correctness, genuineness, authority of any person signing; falsification; or the legal effect of; any documents called for under any L/C if such documents on their face appear to be in order.

(b)           The Issuer may honor, as complying with the terms of any L/C and of any drawing thereunder, any drafts or other documents otherwise in order, but signed or issued by an administrator, executor, conservator, trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver, or other legal representative of the party authorized under such L/C to draw or issue such drafts or other documents.

(c)           Unless otherwise agreed to, in the particular instance, the Borrowers hereby authorize any Issuer to:

(i)            Select an advising bank, if any.

(ii)           Select a paying bank, if any.

(iii)          Select a negotiating bank.

(d)           All directions, correspondence, and funds transfers relating to any L/C are at the risk of the Borrowers. The Issuer shall have discharged the Issuer’s obligations under any L/C which, or the drawing under which, includes payment instructions, by the initiation of the method of payment called for in, and in accordance with, such instructions (or by any other commercially reasonable and comparable method). Neither the Lender nor the Issuer shall have any responsibility for any inaccuracy, interruption, error, or delay in transmission or delivery by post, telegraph or cable, or for any inaccuracy of translation.

(e)           The Lender’s and the Issuer’s rights, powers, privileges and immunities specified in or arising under this Agreement are in addition to any heretofore or at any time hereafter otherwise created or arising, whether by statute or rule of law or contract.

(f)            Except to the extent otherwise expressly provided hereunder or agreed to in writing by the Issuer and the Borrowers, the L/C will be governed by the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (1993 Revision), International Chamber of Commerce, Publication No. 500, and any subsequent revisions thereof.

9

(g)           If any change in any law, executive order or regulation, or any directive of any administrative or governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law), or in the interpretation thereof by any court or administrative or governmental authority charged with the administration thereof, shall either:

(i)            Impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements against letters of credit heretofore or hereafter issued by any Issuer or with respect to which the Lender or any Issuer has an obligation to lend to fund drawings under any L/C.

(ii)           Impose on any Issuer any other condition or requirements relating to any such letters of credit; and the result of any event referred to in Section 1-12(g)(i) or 1-12(g)(ii), above, shall be to increase the cost to any Issuer of issuing or maintaining any L/C (which increase in cost shall be the result of such Issuer’s reasonable allocation among that Issuer’s letter of credit customers of the aggregate of such cost increases resulting from such events), then, upon demand by the Lender and delivery by the Lender to the Borrowers of a certificate of an officer of the subject Issuer describing such change in law, executive order, regulation, directive, or interpretation thereof, its effect on such Issuer, and the basis for determining such increased costs and their allocation, the Borrowers shall immediately pay to the Lender, from time to time as specified by the Lender, such amounts as shall be sufficient to compensate such Issuer for such increased cost. Any Issuer’s determination of costs incurred under Section 1-12(g)(i) or 1-12(g)(ii), above, and the allocation, if any, of such costs among the Borrowers and other letter of credit customers of such Issuer, if done in good faith and made on an equitable basis and in accordance with the officer’s certificate, shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers.

(h)           The obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement with respect to L/C’s are absolute, unconditional, and irrevocable and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms hereof under all circumstances whatsoever including, without limitation, the following:

(i)            Any lack of validity or enforceability or restriction, restraint, or stay in the enforcement of this Agreement, any L/C, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto.

(ii)           Any amendment or waiver of, or consent to the departure from, any L/C.

(iii)          The existence of any claim, set-off, defense, or other right which the Borrowers may have at any time against the beneficiary of any L/C.

(iv)          Any honoring of a drawing under any L/C, which drawing possibly could have been dishonored based upon a strict construction of the terms of the L/C.

(v)           The Borrowers shall not present to Lender or cause the amendment of an L/C without satisfactory evidence of one or more of the following: (a) change in delivery

10

date; (b) Borrowers’ receipt of partial shipment; or (c) change to original order reflected in OTB (open to Buy) or other information which may be so reasonably requested by the Lender.

(i)            In no event, shall Lender or Issuer have any obligation to honor any L/C presented for payment after its expiration. In the event no payment has been made, the Stated Amount of such L/C shall continue to be deducted from Availability for thirty (30) business days beyond expiration of said L/C.

1-13.        LIBO Option.  In lieu of having interest charged at the rate based upon the Base, Borrowers shall have the option (the “LIBO Option”) to have interest on all or a portion of the loans and advances under the Revolving Credit be charged at a rate of interest based upon the LIBO Rate.  Interest on LIBO Rate Loans shall be payable on the Interest Payment Date.  On the last day of each applicable Interest Period in respect of a LIBO Rate Loan, unless Borrowers properly have exercised the LIBO Option with respect thereto, the interest rate applicable to such LIBO Rate Loan automatically shall convert to the rate of interest then applicable to Base Rate Loans of the same Type hereunder.  At any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrowers no longer shall have the option to request that loans and advances under the Revolving Credit bear interest at the LIBO Rate and Lender shall have the right to convert the interest rate on all outstanding LIBO Rate Loans to the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans hereunder.

1-14.        LIBO Election.

(a)           Borrowers may, at any time and from time to time, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, elect to exercise the LIBO Option by notifying Lender prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York time) at least 3 Business Days prior to the commencement of the proposed Interest Period (the “LIBOR Deadline”).  Notice of Borrowers’ election of the LIBO Option for a permitted portion of the loans and advances under the Revolving Credit and an Interest Period pursuant to this Section shall be made by delivery to Lender of a LIBO Notice received by Lender before the LIBOR Deadline, or by telephonic notice received by Lender before the LIBOR Deadline (to be confirmed by delivery to Lender of a LIBO Notice received by Lender prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the same day).

(b)           Each LIBO Notice shall be irrevocable and binding on Borrowers.  In connection with each LIBO Rate Loan, Borrowers shall indemnify, defend, and hold Lender harmless against any loss, cost, or expense incurred by Lender as a result of (a) the payment of any principal of any LIBO Rate Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any LIBO Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any LIBO Rate Loan on the date specified in any LIBO Notice delivered pursuant hereto (such losses, costs, and expenses, collectively, “Funding Losses”).  Funding Losses shall, with respect to Lender , be deemed to equal the amount determined by Lender  to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such LIBO Rate Loan had such event not occurred, at the LIBO Rate that would have been applicable thereto, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert, or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period therefor), minus (ii) the amount

11

of interest that would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which Lender  would be offered were it to be offered, at the commencement of such period, Dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period in the London interbank market.  A certificate of Lender delivered to Borrowers setting forth any amount or amounts that Lender  is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 1-14(b) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(c)           Borrowers shall have not more than 3 LIBO Rate Loans in effect at any given time.  Borrowers only may exercise the LIBO Option for LIBO Rate Loans of at least $500,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof.

1-15.        Prepayment of LIBO Loans.

(a)           Borrowers may prepay LIBO Rate Loans at any time; provided, however, that in the event that LIBO Rate Loans are prepaid on any date that is not the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, including as a result of any automatic prepayment through the required application by Lender of proceeds of Borrowers’ collections in accordance with this Agreement or for any other reason, including early termination of the term of this Agreement or acceleration of all or any portion of the Liabilities pursuant to the terms hereof, Borrowers shall indemnify, defend, and hold the Lender and its Participants harmless against any and all Funding Losses in accordance with Section 1-14(b) above.

(b)           Any partial prepayment of LIBO Rate Loans shall be prepaid in the chronological order of their Interest Payment Dates.

(c)           The LIBO Rate may be adjusted by Lender on a prospective and non-discriminatory basis to take into account any additional or increased costs to the Lender of maintaining or obtaining any eurodollar deposits or increased costs due to changes in applicable law occurring subsequent to the commencement of the then applicable Interest Period, including changes in tax laws (except changes of general applicability in corporate income tax laws) and changes in the reserve requirements imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor), excluding the Reserve Percentage, which additional or increased costs would increase the cost of funding loans bearing interest at the LIBO Rate.  In any such event, the Lender shall give Borrowers notice of such a determination and adjustment and, upon its receipt of the notice from the Lender, Borrowers may, by notice to the Lender (y) require the Lender to furnish to Borrowers a statement setting forth the basis for adjusting such LIBO Rate and the method for determining the amount of such adjustment, or (z) repay the LIBO Rate Loans with respect to which such adjustment is made (together with any amounts due under Section 1-14 (b) above).

(d)           In the event that any change in market conditions or any law, regulation, treaty, or directive, or any change therein or in the interpretation of application thereof, shall at any time after the date hereof, in the reasonable opinion of the Lender, make it unlawful or impractical for the Lender to fund or maintain LIBO Rate Loans or to continue such funding or maintaining, or to determine or charge interest rates at the LIBO Rate, the Lender shall give notice of such changed circumstances to  Borrowers and (y) in the case of any LIBO Rate Loans that are outstanding, the date specified in the Lender’s notice shall be deemed to be the last day of the Interest Period of such LIBO Rate Loans, and interest upon the LIBO Rate Loans of the

(iii)          Deliver to Lender an agreement (in form satisfactory to the Lender) with any depository institution at which a Blocked Account is maintained.

(c)           The Borrowers will not establish any DDA hereafter (other than a Local DDA) unless Borrowers, contemporaneous with such establishment, the Borrowers deliver to the Lender proof of mailing to any such institution, a notification (in form satisfactory to the Lender) of the Lender’s interest in such DDA.

Borrowers shall obtain and deliver to Lender the acknowledgment and consent of any Credit Card Processor to the terms of such notice. The Borrowers shall not change such direction or designation except upon and with the prior written consent of the Lender.
