Ladies
and Gentlemen:
Reference
is made to the Credit Agreement Dated as of May 11, 2009 (the “Credit
Agreement”), between Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Group Inc. (“Borrower”) and
Prosperity Bank (“Lender”), pursuant to which Xxxxxx made a $25,000,000 term

Terms used herein with their initial letter capitalized shall have the meaning
assigned to them in the Credit Agreement unless otherwise defined

The

In
consideration of the foregoing and the following mutual agreements, the Lender
and Xxxxxxxx agree as follows:
1. The
final sentence of Section 2.04 of the Credit Agreement is deleted and the
following substituted in place thereof:
Each
prepayment of the Loan pursuant to this Section 2.04 shall be
applied to the principal repayment installments thereof in inverse order of
maturity; provided,
however, notwithstanding and in addition to the foregoing, the Borrower
may prepay a maximum of three regularly scheduled monthly principal payments in
any calendar quarter, and such prepayments if made shall be applied to the
principal repayment installments thereof in the direct order of
maturity.
2. Except
as modified by the foregoing amendment, all terms, conditions, and provisions of
the Credit Agreement are and shall remain in full force and effect.
