2.       Section 6.4 of the Agreement is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

6.4 Audits. Bank shall have a right from time to time hereafter to audit Borrower’s Accounts and appraise Collateral at Borrower’s expense, provided that such audits will be conducted no more often than every six (6) months (during May and November of each calendar year, unless such other schedule may be agreed to by Bank and Borrower) unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

3. Section 6.10 of the Agreement is amended in its entirety to read as follows:

6.10 Adjusted EBITDA. Borrower shall achieve a minimum Adjusted EBITDA, measured on a quarterly basis, in the following amounts:

Fiscal Quarter	Minimum Adjusted EBITDA

4. Exhibit D to the Agreement is replaced in its entirety with Exhibit D attached hereto.

5.       Unless otherwise defined, all initially capitalized terms in this Amendment shall be as defined in the Agreement. The Agreement, as amended hereby, shall be and remain in full force and effect in accordance with its respective terms and hereby is ratified and confirmed in all respects. Except as expressly set forth herein, the execution, delivery, and performance of this Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of, or as an amendment of, any right, power, or remedy of Bank under the Agreement, as in effect prior to the date hereof. Borrower ratifies and reaffirms the continuing effectiveness of all agreements entered into in connection with the Agreement.

6.       Borrower represents and warrants that the representations and warranties contained in the Agreement are true and correct as of the date of this Amendment, and that no Event of Default (other than the Covenant Defaults) has occurred and is continuing.

7.       This Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall deliver all original signed documents no later than ten (10) Business Days following the date of execution.

8.       As a condition to the effectiveness of this Amendment, Bank shall have received, in form and substance satisfactory to Bank, the following:
