(b)     The defined terms "Intercreditor Agreements", "Senior Debt", "Senior Lender" and "Union Bank" are deleted.

 

(c)     Section 2 is deleted and replaced with the following:

(d)     The following part of Section 3(a) is deleted in its entirety:

 

"provided, however that Loan Parties shall not be required to delivery any such certificates, notes or other instruments to Secured Party to the extent they have previously been delivered to the Senior Lender as collateral for the Senior Debt;"

 

(e)     The reference to "Section 11 of the Loan Agreement" in Section 12 is changed to "Section 11.12 of the Loan Agreement".
