Recitals
A. Bank and Borrower have entered into that certain Loan and Security Agreement dated as of July 31, 2004, as amended by that certain First Loan Modification Agreement by and between Bank and Borrower dated as of November 13, 2004, and as further amended by that certain Second Loan Modification Agreement by and between Bank and Borrower dated as of January 1, 2005 (as the same may from time to time be further amended, modified, supplemented or restated, the “Loan Agreement”).
B. Bank has extended credit to Borrower for the purposes permitted in the Loan Agreement.
C. Borrower has failed to comply with the covenant set forth in Section 6.2(a)(iii) of the Loan Agreement for the fiscal year 2005, which failure, if not cured or waived by Bank, would constitute an Event of Default.
D. Borrower has requested that Bank waive compliance with such covenant and Bank has agreed to so waive such covenant, in accordance with the terms, subject to the conditions and in reliance upon the representations and warranties set forth below.
Agreement
Now, Therefore, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings given to them in the Loan Agreement.
2. Waiver of Potential Default. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that it will not be able to deliver an unqualified opinion on its financial statements from an independent certified public accounting firm, as required by Section 6.2(a)(iii) of the Loan Agreement for the fiscal year 2005 (the “Potential Default”). Borrower further acknowledges and agrees that unless the foregoing Potential Default is waived by Bank, such Potential Default would constitute an Event of Default under the Loan Documents. Bank hereby waives the Potential Default, and agrees to accept a qualified opinion on Borrower’s annual financial statements for fiscal year 2005, consistent with Exhibit A attached hereto. Bank’s agreement to waive the Potential
Default shall in no way obligate Bank to make any modifications to the Loan Agreement or to waive Borrower’s compliance with any other terms of the Loan Documents, and shall not limit or impair Bank’s right to demand strict performance of all other terms and covenants as of any date.
