In further consideration of the additional forbearance referred to herein, the parties hereto agree that the Loan Agreement shall be amended, effective the date hereof, by amending the definition of “Maximum Credit Line” to mean $10,000,000.

The Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Capital that, after giving effect to this letter agreement, no Default or Event of Default other than the Designated Defaults has occurred and is continuing. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that

This letter agreement shall not be deemed to be a waiver, amendment or modification of, or consent to or departure from, any provisions of the Loan Agreement, the Forbearance Agreement or any other Loan Document or to be a waiver of any Forbearance Default under the Forbearance Agreement or Default or Event of Default under the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document whether arising before or after the date hereof (except for the specific amendment referenced above in this letter agreement), and this letter agreement shall not preclude the future exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege available to Capital whether under the Forbearance Agreement, the Loan Agreement, the other Loan Documents or otherwise. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Forbearance Agreement.

This letter agreement shall be deemed to be a Loan Document for all purposes.
