The Company confirms that the Obligations remain outstanding without defense, set off, counterclaim, discount or charge of any kind as of the date of this Amendment.

3.           The Company hereby confirms that any collateral for the Obligations, including liens, security interests, mortgages, and pledges granted by the Company or third parties (if applicable), shall continue unimpaired and in full force and effect, and shall cover and secure all of the Company's existing and future Obligations to the Bank, as modified by this Amendment

4.           As a condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Amendment, the Company shall comply with the terms and conditions (if any) specified in Exhibit A.

5.           To induce the Bank to enter into this Amendment, the Company (a) acknowledges and consents to the termination of that certain Revolving Loan Agreement dated October 31, 2011 between the Company and the Bank (the "Revolving Loan Agreement") and (b) waives and releases and forever discharges the Bank and its officers, directors, attorneys, agents, and employees from any liability, damage, claim, loss or expense of any kind that it may have against the Bank or any of them arising out of or relating to the Obligations and the Revolving Loan Agreement. The Company further agrees to indemnify and hold the Bank and its officers, directors, attorneys, agents and employees harmless from any loss, damage, judgment, liability or expense (including attorneys' fees) suffered by or rendered against the Bank or any of them on account of any claims arising out of or relating to the Obligations and the Revolving Loan Agreement. The Company further states that it has carefully read the foregoing release and indemnity, knows the contents thereof and grants the same as its own free act and deed.

6.           This Amendment may be signed in any number of counterpart copies and by the parties to this Amendment on separate counterparts, but all such copies shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Amendment by facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart. Any party so executing this Amendment by facsimile transmission shall promptly deliver a manually executed counterpart, provided that any failure to do so shall not affect the validity of the counterpart executed by facsimile transmission.

7.           This Amendment will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and the Bank and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns.

8.           This Amendment has been delivered to and accepted by the Bank and will be deemed to be made in the State where the Bank's office indicated in the Credit Documents is located. This Amendment will be interpreted and the rights and liabilities of the parties hereto determined in accordance with the laws of the State where the Bank's office indicated in the Credit Documents is located, excluding its conflict of laws rules.
