("BORROWER") and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (successor to Wells Fargo Bank (Texas), National Association, herein "BANK"). All terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Loan Agreement. Ladies and Gentlemen: Reference is made to that certain letter dated December 27, 2004, sent by you to Bank notifying Bank of a Change of Control resulting from Ronald Parker ceasing to be the Chief Executive Officer of Borrower (the "PARKER CHANGE OF CONTROL") and, in accordance with Section 10.12 of the Loan Agreement, offering ------------- to accelerate payment of the obligations (the "NOTICE AND OFFER"). In addition, you are hereby notified that an Event of Default currently exists under the Loan Agreement. As disclosed in the most recent draft 10Q statement of Borrower received by Bank, Bank is aware that Borrower repurchased certain of its capital stock for a purchase price of approximately $117,000. Section 11.4 ------------ of the Loan Agreement prohibits Borrower's repurchase of its capital stock without Bank's consent (the "CURRENT DEFAULT"). Without waiving any Default or Event of Default now existing or hereafter arising under the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents, other than the Current Default, or any of Bank's rights and remedies under the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents resulting therefrom, Bank agrees (a) not to accelerate payment of the Obligations based on the Notice and Offer and (b) to waive the Current Default, subject to the following conditions precedent: 1. Borrower acknowledges the terms of this letter by executing it in the space indicated below. 2. On or before the close of business on February 11, 2005, Borrower enters into a Second Amendment to Third Amended and Restated Loan Agreement and such other documents, instruments, promissory notes and agreements Bank deems necessary in connection therewith (the "SECOND AMENDMENT") pursuant to which the Loan Agreement is amended in accordance with the terms set forth below and such other terms, covenants and agreements which are in form and substance satisfactory to Bank; a. The Revolving Credit Commitment shall be reduced to $3,000,000; b. The definition of "Termination Date" shall be modified to December 23, 2005; c. The interest rate for the Real Estate Loan shall be modified to LIBOR + 2.25%; d. The interest rate for the Revolving Credit Loan shall be modified to LIBOR + 2.75% or Prime + 0.50%; e. The Commitment Fee set forth in Section 2.7 of the Loan Agreement shall ----------- be terminated; f. The definition of "Change of Control" and the Change of Control provisions in the Loan Agreement shall be modified; g. Borrower shall be prohibited from making non-financed capital expenditures in excess of $500,000 in the aggregate during any given fiscal year without Bank's consent; h. Included with existing reporting requirements, Borrower shall be required to deliver an aged listing of accounts receivable, accounts payable and a reconciliation of accounts, and, at any time requested by Bank, a listing of all account debtors that includes names, addresses and phone numbers of the account debtors; i. The Tangible Net Worth covenant contained in Section 12.2 of the Loan ------------ Agreement shall be deleted; j. A new financial covenant shall be added that requires Borrower to maintain total liabilities less subordinated debt divided by Tangible Net Worth of not more than 1.50 to 1.00; and k. A new covenant shall be added that prohibits the outstanding principal and interest amount of the Revolving Credit Loan plus all Letter of Credit Liabilities to exceed 80% of Eligible Accounts (as defined in EXHIBIT A attached hereto); 3. No Event of Default, other than the Current Default, shall have occurred and be continuing, or would result from the Second Amendment; and 4. All of the representations and warranties contained in the Loan Agreement and in the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct on and as of the date of the Second Amendment. Failure by you to execute the Second Amendment and such other documents, instruments, promissory notes and agreements Bank deems necessary in connection therewith on or before February 11, 2005, shall constitute an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement. This letter shall constitute a Loan Document. Notwithstanding Bank's agreement (a) not to accelerate payment of the Obligations based on the Notice and Offer and (b) to waive the Current Default, subject to the foregoing conditions, you are hereby notified that Bank requires strict compliance with the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents. The execution by Bank of this letter, or any other act or omission by Bank, or its officers in connection herewith, shall not be deemed a waiver by Bank of any Default or Event of Default, other than the Current Default, which may exist or which may occur in the future under the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any future Default or Event of Default of the same provision waived under the Current Default (collectively "OTHER VIOLATIONS"). No waiver of any provision of the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Bank, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance to which it relates and for the purpose for which it is given. Similarly, nothing contained in this letter shall directly or indirectly in any way whatsoever either (i) impair, prejudice or otherwise adversely affect Bank's right at any time to exercise any right, privilege or remedy in connection with the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document with respect to any Other Violations, (ii) amend or alter any provision of the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document, or (iii) constitute any course of dealing or other basis for altering any obligation of Borrower or any right, privilege or remedy of Bank under the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document. Nothing in this letter shall be construed to be a consent or waiver by Bank of any Other Violations. The rights provided for in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and not intended to be exclusive of any other right given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise. This letter may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument. The parties agree that this letter may be executed and delivered via facsimile and any such facsimile copy of any such document shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as an original copy and each party hereby agrees that it shall not raise the use of a facsimile copy as a defense to this letter and forever waives any such defense. Furthermore, at the request of any party, a party executing and delivering this letter by facsimile copy shall re-execute an original copy in replacement. Bank intends this letter to supercede and replace, in its entirety, correspondence dated February 4, 2005, issued by Bank to Borrower.
