Section 3. Amendments to Loan Agreement.
(a) The first Whereas clause of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its
entirety to read as follows:
“WHEREAS, Borrower has requested that Lenders make available to Borrower a
revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) in a maximum principal
amount at any time outstanding of up to Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000)
(the “Closing Date Facility Cap”) plus up to an additional Twenty Million
Dollars ($20,000,000) if all Additional Tranches (as defined herein) are
activated in accordance with the terms hereof, plus and within the Current
Facility Cap, a sublimit of Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000) (the “L/C
Sublimit”), the proceeds of such Revolving Facility shall be used by
Borrower for general corporate matters and purposes, and working capital
needs in connection with its provision of medical and related services to
correctional facilities;”
(b) Section 2.1(a) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its

“(a) Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, each Lender agrees to make
available its Pro Rata Share of Advances, including Advances in connection
with the issuance or collateralization of Letters of Credit, to Borrower
under the Revolving Facility from time to time during the Term;
provided, that (i) the Pro Rata Share of the Advances of any Lender
shall not at any time exceed its separate Commitment, and (ii) the aggregate
amount of all Advances at any time outstanding under the Revolving Facility,
together with the then aggregate amount of L/C Exposure, shall not exceed
the lesser of (A) the Current Facility Cap and (B) the Availability. After
the Closing Date, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists and
subject to the terms of this Agreement, with the prior written consent of
Agent and Lenders in their sole discretion, the Closing Date Facility Cap
may be increased upon the written request of Borrower (which such request
shall be made at least fifteen (15) days prior to the proposed effective
date of such Additional Tranche) to Agent and Lenders to activate up to four
(4) Additional Tranches; provided that Borrower shall not make more
than four (4) such requests during the term hereof and provided further that
neither Agent nor Lenders shall have any obligation to consent to any
requested activation of an Additional Tranche. The obligations of Lenders
hereunder shall be several and not joint up to the amount of the
Commitments. The Revolving Facility is a revolving credit facility, which
may be drawn, repaid and redrawn, from time to time as permitted under this
Agreement. Any determination as to whether there is availability within the
Borrowing Base for Advances shall be made by Agent in its Permitted
Discretion and is final and binding upon Borrower. Unless otherwise
permitted by Agent, each Advance shall be in an amount of at least $100,000.
Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, Borrower may request Advances
under the Revolving Facility up to and including the value, in Dollars, of
85% of the Borrowing Base (such calculated amount being referred to herein
as the “Availability”). Advances under the Revolving Facility automatically
shall be made for the payment of interest on the Loans and other Obligations
on the date when due to the extent available and as provided for herein.
