confirms that the security interests, and liens granted to Agent and Lenders in
the Collateral securing the Obligations (each of the foregoing capitalized terms
as defined in the Original Agreement) remain first and valid liens therein, (b)
acknowledges and agrees that any and all collateral security heretofore,
simultaneously herewith or hereafter granted to Agent and/or Lenders by Borrower
shall secure all of Borrower's present and future indebtedness (including the
Obligations) to Agent and Lenders, and (c) further represents and warrants that
as of the date hereof, there are no claims, set-offs or defenses to Agent and/or
Lenders' exercise of any rights or remedies available to Agent and each Lender
as a creditor in realizing upon the Collateral under the terms and conditions of
this Amendment, the Loan Documents and applicable law. Borrower has not assigned
any claim, set-off or defense to any person, individual, or entity. If there is
an express conflict between the terms of this Amendment and the terms of the
Loan Documents, the terms of this Amendment shall control.
B. RELATED EXPENSES. In addition to the fees and expenses required
under Section 8 of the Original Agreement, as amended hereby, Borrower also
agrees that Borrower's obligations and liabilities to Agent and Lenders shall
include all Related Expenses. For the purposes of this Amendment, "Related
Expenses" means any and all costs, liabilities, and expenses (including without
limitation, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, attorney's fees, legal
expenses, judgments, suits, and disbursements) incurred by, imposed upon, or
asserted against, Agent or Lenders in connection with the Obligations, the Loan
Documents or in any attempt by Agent or Lenders (subject to any limitations set
forth herein):
(a) to obtain, preserve, perfect, or enforce any security interest
evidenced by (i) this Amendment and the Loan Documents, or (ii)
any other pledge agreement, mortgage deed, hypothecation
agreement,
-14-
15
guaranty, security agreement, assignment, or security
instrument executed or given by Borrower or any Guarantor to or
in favor of Agent and/or Lenders;
(b) to obtain payment, performance, and observance of any and all
of Borrower's obligations and liabilities to Agent and Lenders,
including, without limitation, the Obligations;
(c) to maintain, insure, audit, collect, preserve, repossess, and
dispose of any of the Collateral, including, without
limitation, costs and expenses for appraisals, assessments, and
audits of Borrower or the Collateral;
(d) incidental or related to (a) through (c) above, including,
without limitation, interest thereupon from the date incurred,
imposed, or asserted until paid at the rate payable as set
forth in the Revolving Credit Note, but in no event greater
than the highest rate permitted by law.
C. SALE OF THE COLLATERAL. Upon and after the occurrence of an Event of
Default, Agent shall be permitted to sell, lease or otherwise dispose of the
Collateral in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and applicable
law. Borrower and Guarantors hereby consent and agree to such sale, lease or
other disposition of the Collateral by Agent. Borrower and the Guarantors hereby
waive, renounce and forever relinquish all rights to notice prior to disposition
of the Collateral required by the Loan Documents, and all rights that are
waivable under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code, as enacted in any
applicable state (and similar provisions of any applicable law of any other
jurisdiction), whether such rights are waivable before or after default,
including, without limitation, those rights with respect to the compulsory
disposition of collateral and with respect to redemption of collateral, and the
right to notice of any disposition of the Collateral. Borrower and Guarantors
further waive and forever relinquish any and every right of redemption,
including any statutory right of redemption, any equitable right of redemption,
and any other right of redemption that may exist. This paragraph and the
irrevocable waivers contained herein shall survive the termination of this
Amendment and the Loan Documents.
D. AGENT'S ACTIONS; COOPERATION. Upon surrender of the Collateral to
Agent, Agent will dispose of the Collateral in a commercially reasonable manner.
Borrower and the Guarantors agree to cooperate fully with Agent in facilitating
the disposition of the Collateral, including (i) granting Agent the right to
take possession of any premises operated by Borrower for purposes of changing
locks, securing the Collateral and conducting sale of the Collateral, and (ii)
providing any information and, upon Agent's request, executing any documents
necessary to place title to the Collateral or any portion thereof in Agent.
-15-
16
E. COOPERATION OF BORROWER AND GUARANTORS. Borrower and Guarantors
shall take any and all actions of any kind or nature whatsoever, either directly
or indirectly, that are necessary to prevent Agent and each Lender from
suffering a loss with respect to the Obligations, the Collateral or of any
rights or remedies of Agent or any Lender with respect to the Obligations, the
Loan Documents or this Amendment in the Event of a Default. Borrower nor any
Guarantor shall enter into any agreements with any creditors other than Agent
that might impair Borrower's ability to perform under this Amendment or the Loan
Documents, it being specifically agreed by Borrower that Borrower shall promptly
provide Agent with copies of any and all such agreements that Borrower has
entered into before the date of this Amendment and any agreements with any other
creditor that may constitute an agreement that Borrower may enter into during
the term hereof.
F. REMEDIES. In addition to any and all remedies available under the
Loan Documents, Borrower and each Guarantor agrees that immediately upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary
set forth herein, Agent shall have the rights and remedies set forth in the Loan
Documents and in any other document previously, now or hereafter executed and
delivered to Agent by Borrower in connection with the Loan Documents, the rights
and remedies contained in this Amendment, and all rights and remedies existing
under applicable law. All rights and remedies shall be cumulative and not
exclusive, and Agent shall have the right to exercise any and all other rights
and remedies which may be available. Any action by Agent against any property or
party shall not serve to release or discharge any other security, property or
person in connection with this transaction. In addition to any other rights and
remedies which may be available, Agent may, in its sole discretion: (i) enter,
with or without process of law, any premises where the Collateral or the books
and records of Borrower related thereto are or may be located, and without
charge or liability to Agent therefore, seize and remove the Collateral and
books and records in any way relating to the Collateral from such premises
and/or remain upon the premises and use the same (together with said books and
records) for the purpose of collecting, preparing and/or disposing of the
Collateral; (ii) sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral at public or
private sale for cash or credit; (iii) in the event that Borrower fails to
perform, observe or discharge any of its obligations or liabilities under this
Amendment or the Loan Documents, obtain temporary and permanent injunctive
relief without the necessity of proving irreparable injury, and without the
necessity of posting a bond or other security, it being expressly recognized and
agreed that no remedy at law will provide adequate relief to Lender under such
circumstances.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and at all times thereafter,
Agent, without the necessity of obtaining any prior approval of any court, shall
be entitled to (a) terminate all advances or other extensions of credit; (b)
return any and all checks drawn against Borrower's account at Agent or any
Lender, upon payment of all checks issued prior to the occurrence of such Event
of Default; (c) apply all funds in Borrower's account at Agent, any Lender or
any other financial institution that has executed a Blocked Account Agreement in
favor of Agent to liability; and (d) exercise in respect of any Collateral it
may hold all rights and remedies of the secured creditor available to it under
applicable laws, and Agent shall also be entitled to exercise all rights and
remedies available to Agent as a creditor generally, including, without
limitation, all remedies available to Agent under the Loan Documents, as well as
rights and remedies available to Agent at
-16-
17
law or in equity. All of its rights and remedies shall be cumulative. No failure
or delay on the part of Agent in exercising the power, right or remedy under any
of the Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or
partial release of any such power, right or remedy shall preclude any further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other party, right or remedy.
No provision of or exercise of any rights under this Section shall
limit the right of any party to exercise self help remedies such as setoff,
collection of rents, to foreclose against any real or personal property
collateral, or to obtain provisional or ancillary remedies such as injunctive
relief or the appointment of a receiver from a court having jurisdiction before,
during or after the pendency of any arbitration. At Agent's option, foreclosure
under a deed of trust or mortgage may be accomplished either by exercise of
power of sale under the deed of trust or mortgage or by judicial foreclosure.
The institution and maintenance of an action for judicial relief or pursuit of
provisional ancillary remedies or exercise of self help remedies shall not
constitute a waiver of the controversy or claim to arbitration.
G. WAIVER AND RELEASE OF ALL CLAIMS AND DEFENSES. All defenses and
claims of every kind or nature, whether existing by virtue of state, federal, or
local law, by agreement or otherwise, against Agent or any Lender, the
Obligations, or the Collateral, whether previously or now existing or arising
out of or related to any transaction or dealings between Agent, Lenders and
Borrower or Agent, Lenders and any Guarantor or any of them, which Borrower or
Guarantors or any of them may have or may have made at any time up through and
including the date of this Amendment, are hereby forever waived, relinquished,
discharged and released against the Obligations, the Collateral, and Agent,
Lenders, their successors, assigns, directors, officers, shareholders, agents,
employees and attorneys, including, without limitation, any affirmative
defenses, counterclaims, setoffs, deductions or recoupments, by Borrower,
Guarantors and all of their representatives, successors, assigns, agents,
employees, officers, directors and heirs. All defenses and claims of every kind
or nature, whether existing by virtue of state, federal, or local law, by
agreement or otherwise, against Agent, whether previously or now existing or
arising out of or related to any transaction or dealings between Agent, Lenders
and Borrower or Agent, Lenders and any Guarantor or any of them, which any
Lender may have or may have made at any time up through and including the date
of this Amendment, are hereby forever waived, relinquished, discharged and
released against the Agent and its successors, assigns, directors, officers,
shareholders, agents, employees and attorneys, including, without limitation,
any affirmative defenses, counterclaims, setoffs, deductions or recoupments, by
any Lender and all of its representatives, successors, assigns, agents,
employees, officers, directors and heirs. By way of illustration but not
limitation, "Claims" includes all debts, demands, actions, causes of action,
suits, dues, sums of money, accounts, bonds, warranties, covenants, contracts,
controversies, promises, agreements or obligations of any kind, type or
description, and any other claim or demand of any nature whatsoever, whether
known or unknown, accrued or unaccrued, disputed or undisputed, liquidated or
contingent, in contract, tort, at law or in equity, any of them ever had,
claimed to have, now has, or shall or may have. Nothing contained in this
Amendment prevents enforcement of this release.
-17-
18
H. INDEMNIFICATION. In addition to any other obligations of
indemnification, Borrower and Guarantors hereby jointly and severally assume
responsibility and liability for, and hereby hold harmless and indemnify Agent
and Lenders from and against, any and all, by way of example but without
limitation, liabilities, demands, obligations, injuries, costs, damages (direct,
indirect or consequential), awards, loss of interest, principal or any portion
of the Indebtedness, charges, expenses, payments of money and reasonable
attorneys, fees, incurred or suffered, directly or indirectly, by Agent or
Lenders or asserted against Agent or Lenders, by any person or entity
whatsoever, including Borrower and Guarantors or any of them, arising out of
this Amendment, or any document executed in connection herewith, or the
relationship between or among the parties hereto, or the exercise of any right
or remedy, including the realization, disposition or sale of the Collateral, or
any portion thereof, or the exercise of any right in connection therewith, for
which Agent or Lenders may be liable, for any reason whatsoever except for
Agents or Lenders own acts of gross negligence.
I. WAIVER OF CONTRIBUTION RIGHTS. Borrower and each Guarantor waives
any claim or other right which any of them may have or hereafter acquire against
one another or any other person that is primarily or contingently liable on the
Obligations, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation,
reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification and any right to
participation in any claim or remedy of Agent or Lenders against Borrower, any
Guarantor or any collateral security therefore.
J. CONSENT TO RELIEF FROM AUTOMATIC STAY. Borrower and each Guarantor
hereby agrees that if they, individually or jointly, shall (i) file with any
bankruptcy court of competent jurisdiction or be the subject of any petition
under Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended, (ii) be the subject of any
order for relief issued under such Title 11 of the U.S. Code, as amended, (iii)
file or be the subject of any petition seeking any reorganization, arrangement,
composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution, or similar relief under any
present or future federal or state act or law relating to bankruptcy,
insolvency, or other relief for debtors, (iv) seek consent to or acquiesce in
the appointment of any trustee, receiver, conservator, or liquidator, (v) be the
subject of any order, judgment or decree entered by any court of competent
jurisdiction approving a petition filed against Borrower or any of Guarantor for
any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation,
dissolutionment, or similar relief under any present or future federal or state
act or law relating to bankruptcy and insolvency, or relief for debtors, Agent
shall thereupon be entitled to relief from any automatic stay imposed by Section
362 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended, or from any other stay or
suspension of remedies imposed in any other manner with respect to the exercise
of the rights and remedies otherwise available to Agent under the terms of this
Amendment and the Loan Documents. Borrower agrees that upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default hereunder or under the Loan Documents Agent shall be entitled
to and Borrower hereby consents to the appointment of a receiver for the
Collateral under Ohio law or under any other applicable law in any other court
of appropriate jurisdiction.
K. INDULGENCE; MODIFICATIONS. No delay or failure of Agent or Lenders
to exercise any right, power or privilege hereunder shall affect such right,
power or privilege nor shall any single or
-18-
19
partial exercise thereof preclude any further exercise thereof, nor the exercise
of any other right, power or privilege. The rights of Agent and Lenders
hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies which
Lender would otherwise have except as modified herein. No amendment,
modification, supplement, termination, consent or waiver of or to any provision
of this Amendment or the Loan Documents, nor any consent to any departure
therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing
and signed by or on behalf of Agent.
L. POWER OF ATTORNEY. Borrower and Guarantors do hereby irrevocably
constitute and appoint Agent its or his true and lawful attorney-in-fact for it
or him, in its or his name, place and xxxxx, with full power of delegation and
substitution, to make, execute, deliver any and all instruments, papers and
documents, which shall become necessary, proper, convenient or desirable to
further evidence perfection of Agent's liens against, or to liquidate any of,
the Collateral, including, without limitation, the right to supply any necessary
endorsement for any instrument or in connection with the Warrant Agreement.
M. REVERSAL OF PAYMENTS. If Agent or any Lender receives any payments
or proceeds of Collateral which are subsequently invalidated, declared to be
fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be paid to a trustee,
debtor-in-possession, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law,
common law, equitable cause or otherwise, then, to such extent, the obligations
or part thereof intended to be satisfied by such payments or proceeds shall be
reserved and continue as if such payments or proceeds had not been received by
Agent or such Lender.
SECTION 20. MISCELLANEOUS.
A. In consideration of this Amendment, Borrower hereby releases and
discharges Agent and Lenders and their shareholders, directors, officers,
employees, attorneys, affiliates and subsidiaries from any and all claims,
demands, liability and causes of action whatsoever, now known or unknown,

mortgage or security interest related thereto or any other Loan Document.
B. Borrower, Agent and Lenders hereby agree to extend all liens and

agreements, stipulations and conditions on its part to be performed hereunder or
under the Original Agreement as amended by this Agreement and all other related
Loan Documents executed in connection herewith or therewith.
D. Borrower hereby declares and certifies to Lenders that as of the
Effective Date of this Amendment, no Event of Default exists under the Original
Agreement, as amended by this Amendment, nor shall any event have occurred
which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would
constitute an Event of Default.
E. Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Agent and Lenders that
(a) Borrower has the legal power and authority to execute and deliver this
Amendment; (b) the officials executing this Amendment have been duly authorized
to execute and deliver the same and bind Borrower with respect to the provisions
hereof; (c) the execution and delivery hereof by Borrower and the performance
and observance by Borrower of the provisions hereof do not violate or conflict
with the organizational agreements of Borrower or any law applicable to Borrower
or result in a breach of any provisions of or constitute a default under any
other agreement, instrument or document binding upon or enforceable against
Borrower; and (d) this Amendment constitutes a valid and binding obligation upon
Borrower in every respect.
