"Excess Availability" means the amount, as of the date any determination thereof is to be made, the difference between the Borrowing Base and the sum of all Advances plus Letter of Credit Usage, provided, however, that for purposes of determining Excess Availability the Maximum Revolver Amount shall be disregarded.

2. Modified Definitions. The following definitions contained in Article 1 of the Loan Agreement shall be modified as set forth below:

The definition of "Base Rate Margin" in Section 1.1 of the Loan Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and the following definition shall be substituted therefor: "'Base Rate Margin' means, as of any date of determination, the margin specified in the Margin Pricing Grid based on the Borrower's maintenance of the corresponding Average Excess Availability as specified in the Margin Pricing Grid, as measured on the last day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter (it being understood that the applicable margins will be adjusted quarterly on the first day of each calendar quarter based upon the aforementioned measurements made on the last day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter). Between October 1, 2006 and December 31, 2006, the Base Rate Margin shall be set at Level I, notwithstanding what the applicable Level might be based upon reference to the Margin Pricing Grid. On January 1, 2007, and on the first day of each calendar quarter thereafter, the applicable margins shall be adjusted in accordance with the Margin Pricing Grid."

The definition of "LIBOR Rate Margin" in Section 1.1 of the Loan Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and the following definition shall be substituted therefor: "'LIBOR Rate Margin' means, as of any date of determination, the margin specified in the Margin Pricing Grid based on the Borrower's maintenance of the corresponding Average Excess Availability as specified in the Margin Pricing Grid, as measured on the last day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter (it being understood that the applicable margins will be adjusted quarterly on the first day of each calendar quarter based upon the aforementioned measurements made on the last day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter). Between October 1, 2006 and December 31, 2006, the Base Rate Margin shall be set at Level I, notwithstanding what the applicable Level might be based upon reference to the Margin Pricing Grid. On January 1, 2007, and on the first day of each calendar quarter thereafter, the applicable margins shall be adjusted in accordance with the Margin Pricing Grid."

The definition of "Margin Pricing Grid" shall be deleted and the following substituted therefor: "'Margin Pricing Grid' means the pricing grid set forth below:

Margin Pricing Grid

Level	Average Excess Availability	Base Rate Margin	LIBOR Rate Margin
I	Greater than or equal to $12,000,000	0.00%	1.25%
