1. Paragraph A on page one of the Loan Agreement entitled “THE LOAN OR LOANS” is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

Bank shall make available to PHI a secured revolving line of credit (the “Revolving Line of Credit”) in the principal amount of SEVENTY-FIVE MILLION ($75,000,000) DOLLARS, that may be drawn upon by PHI on any business day of Bank during the period hereof until and including September 1, 2011, on at least one day’s telephonic notice to Bank. The Revolving Line of Credit shall be evidenced by a commercial note, payable to Bank (the “Note”) and shall contain additional terms and conditions and be identified with this Agreement.

A sublimit of TWENTY MILLION ($20,000,000) DOLLARS is hereby established for the issuance of letters of credit with a maturity not exceeding that of the Note, which may be issued by Bank or any bank participating in the Revolving Line of Credit upon application by PHI.”

2. The first line of Subparagraph C(4) on page two of the Loan Agreement entitled “Litigation” is hereby amended and modified by adding the following clause after the words, “To the best of PHI’s knowledge”, “and except as disclosed in Forms 10-K and 10-Q”.

4. The seventh line of Subparagraph C(7) on page three of the Loan Agreement entitled “Insurance” is hereby amended by replacing the words “or certified copies” with the words “or certificates”.

“(c) Consolidated Net Worth. From and after August 5, 2009, PHI, shall not at any time, permit its consolidated net worth, to be less than FOUR HUNDRED TWENTY-FIVE MILLION ($425,000,000) DOLLARS.”

6. Paragraph D on page four of the Loan Agreement entitled “Collateral” is hereby amended and modified (a) by replacing the word “monthly” with the word “quarterly” in the fifth line of the first paragraph thereof and (b) by replacing the number “$50,000,000” with the number “75,000,000” in the third line of the second paragraph thereof.

7. Paragraph G on pages four and five of the Loan Agreement entitled “Rate of Interest and Applicable Fees” is hereby amended and restated as follows:

“G. RATE OF INTEREST AND APPLICABLE FEES. Borrowing made pursuant to the Note shall accrue interest at Wall Street Journal Prime rate plus one (1%) percent per annum and may be advanced or repaid at any time upon one day’s notice; interest shall be payable quarterly. As used in this Agreement the term “Wall Street Journal Prime” shall mean that rate of interest that is subject to increase or decrease from time to time based on corresponding increases or decreases in the Prime Rate as published in the Wall Street Journal. When a range of rates has been published, the higher of the rates will be used.

Unused fees on the daily amount undrawn under the Revolving Line of Credit shall accrue at the rate of 1/4 of 1% per annum payable quarterly. Any letters of credit issued pursuant to this Agreement shall bear interest at the rate of 1/2 of 1% per quarter on any part thereof, plus standard issuing fees.”
