F. Lender is willing to consent to and approve the request of Borrower on the terms and conditions set forth below.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:
1. MODIFICATION
1.1 Lender hereby consents to the Modification in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and subject to the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents; however, in no event shall such consent be deemed or construed as a waiver of Lender’s right to withhold its consent to any other transaction.
2. AMENDMENT TO LOAN DOCUMENTS.
2.1 The amount of the Loan is hereby increased to $300,000.00. Accordingly, all references in the Loan Documents to “TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS” and “200,000” are hereby replaced with “THREE THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS” and “300,000,” respectively.
2.2 The following new Section 5.5 is hereby added to the Loan Agreement:

Notify Lender of any and all payments or funds received by Borrower or that are available for use by Borrower from Borrower’s factoring/funding partners, whoever they may be from time to time, by identifying the respective factoring/funding partner, the amount of funds received or available for use, and the date such funds were received, will be received, or are available for use by Borrower. As used herein, “Borrower’s factoring/funding partners” shall mean all factoring or other companies or individuals providing financing or other money to Borrower, including but not limited to SLS Government Factoring. Borrower shall immediately use all funds received from or that are available for use from Borrower’s factoring/funding partners to pay down the principal and interest due on the Loan and to pay all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, including but not limited to all costs Borrower is obligated to pay under the Loan Documents.”
