For those of the foregoing determinations made during fiscal periods 2009 and 2010 only which will be determined on a rolling twelve month basis, cash received by Borrower from convertible debt offerings and associated warrants will be applied to offset cash capital expenditures together with the payments made to PNC Equipment Finance LLC/PNC Leasing pursuant to paragraph 5 of the Third Amendment.

8.         Except as otherwise provided herein, the Loan Documents continue in full force and effect, in accordance with their respective terms.

11.       To the extent that any provision of this Fourth Amendment is determined by any court or legislature to be invalid or unenforceable in whole or part either in a particular case or in all cases, such provision or part thereof is to be deemed surplusage. If that occurs, it does not have the effect of rendering any other provision of this Fourth Amendment invalid or unenforceable. This Fourth Amendment is to be construed and enforced as if such invalid or unenforceable provision or part thereof were omitted.

12.        This Fourth Amendment may only be changed or amended by a written agreement signed by all of the parties. By the execution of this Fourth Amendment, Lender is not to be deemed to consent to any future renewal or extension of the loan.

14.       The parties to this Fourth Amendment acknowledge that each has had the opportunity to consult independent counsel of their own choice, and that each has relied upon such counsel's advice concerning this Fourth Amendment, the enforceability and interpretation of the terms contained in this Fourth Amendment and the consummation of the transactions and matters covered by this Fourth Amendment.

15.       Obligors are to reimburse Lender for its costs, expenses, and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in connection with this Fourth Amendment, upon execution of this Fourth Amendment.

THE OBLIGORS, FOR THEMSELVES, THEIR SUBSIDIARIES (IF ANY) AND LENDER HEREBY WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION RELATING TO THIS FOURTH AMENDMENT OR THE DEBT AS AN INDUCEMENT TO THE EXECUTION OF THIS FOURTH AMENDMENT.
