AGREEMENT
1. Accuracy of Recitals. Borrower hereby acknowledges the accuracy of the Recitals stated above.

3. Credit Agreement Amendment. The following provisions of the Credit Agreement are amended as follows:
a. The defined term “LIBOR Rate” in Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated as follows:
“LIBOR Rate” is the London Interbank Offered Rate, as determined by the ICE Benchmark Administration (or any successor or replacement therefore) for the applicable Reference Period as obtained by Lender from Xxxxxx’x, Bloomberg or another commercially reliable source, two (2) days before the beginning of each Interest Period (or in the event no such rate is stated on that date, the rate stated on the day most immediately preceding the date of determination on which a rate was stated), as adjusted from time to time in Lender’s sole discretion for then-applicable reserve requirements, deposit insurance assessment rates and other regulatory costs.

Each “Interest Period” shall be a period equal to the duration of the Reference Period; provided, however, if the last day of an Interest Period would not fall on a Business Day, then the Interest Period will end on the next following Business Day. The initial Interest Period shall commence on the date of the Note, and each succeeding Interest Period shall commence on the day immediately following the expiration of the preceding Interest Period. The “Reference Period” shall be thirty (30) days.
b. Section 7.6(a) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated as follows:
Debt to EBITDA Ratio.

The Debt to EBITDA Ratio shall be calculated by Borrower on the last day of the end of each semi-annual period, and shall be delivered to Lender within ninety (90) days after last day of each semi-annual period.
c. Section 7.6(b) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated as follows:
Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. As tested on a semi-annual basis, Borrower shall maintain, on a consolidated basis, a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of not less than 1.25:1.00.
