BACKGROUND

A. Borrowers, Lenders and Agent are parties to a certain Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated as of August 25, 2008 (as amended or modified from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”).  Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings respectively ascribed to them in the Loan Agreement.

B. Borrowers have requested and Agent and Lenders have agreed to amend the Loan Agreement in certain respects, all on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby promise and agree as follows:

1. Amendments.  Upon the effectiveness of this Amendment, the Loan Agreement shall be amended as follows:

(a) Definitions.  The following definitions contained in Section 1.1 of the Loan Agreement are amended and restated as follows:

“Applicable Margin” means the following percentage as set forth in the matrix below (no downward rate adjustment being permitted if an Event of Default or Default is outstanding):

EBITDA Ratio	Applicable Margin
Less than 1.75 to 1.0	2.25%
Greater than or equal to 1.75 to 1.0	2.00%

For purposes of the foregoing (i) the Applicable Margin shall be adjusted monthly in accordance with the matrix above, based upon Agent’s receipt of monthly financial statements and other documentation and reports required pursuant to Section 6.2, and effective the 1st day of the month of the delivery of such financial statements and other documentation and reports and (ii) if Borrowers fail to timely deliver the applicable financial statements, documentation and reports or any other Event of Default then exists, then at Agent’s option, the Applicable Margin will be increased to the highest rate of interest pursuant to the above matrix, which rate of interest shall

continue in effect until the applicable financial statements are delivered.  In the event that any financial statement, covenant compliance certificate, documentation and reports delivered pursuant to Section 6.2 is shown to be inaccurate (regardless of whether this Agreement is in effect when such inaccuracy is discovered), and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to the application of a higher Applicable Margin for any period (an “Applicable Period”) than the Applicable Margin applied for such Applicable Period, and only in such case, then Borrowers shall immediately (i) deliver to Agent a corrected covenant compliance certificate for such Applicable Period, (ii) determine the Applicable Margin for such Applicable Period based upon the corrected covenant compliance certificate, and (iii) immediately pay to Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, the accrued additional interest owing as a result of such increased Applicable Margin for such Applicable Period.  In addition, the Applicable Margin shall be increased to by an additional 0.25% for each month that Excess Availability is less than 20%  as of the last day of such month (as determined by Agent).

“Eligible Receivables” means, as of the date of determination, Receivables (net of unearned interest, fees, unearned discounts, reserves and commissions thereon) which are Chattel Paper, which conform to the warranties set forth in Section 4.1 hereof, in which Agent has a validly perfected first priority Lien, and which are not any of the following: (i) Receivables for which a payment is 61 or more days past due on a contractual basis; (ii) Receivables subject to litigation, foreclosure, repossession or bankruptcy proceedings or the account debtor with respect to which is a debtor under the Bankruptcy Code unless they are contractually current; (iii) Receivables from officers, employees or shareholders of any Borrower or any Affiliate; (iv) Receivables which have been deferred or extended more than twice during any rolling 12 month period; (v) Receivables which have been restructured or modified as a result the account debtor’s delinquencies;  (vi) Interest Only Accounts; (vii) Real Estate Related Accounts; (viii) Receivables arising from deficiency balance accounts; (ix) Receivables for which Custodian or Agent has not received the corresponding original certificate of title within 120 days from the origination of such Receivable; (x) Receivables with balloon payments; (xi) Receivables purchased from a dealer to the extent such Receivables exceed an amount equal to 15% of gross Receivables; (xii) Receivables serviced, collected or enforced by a Person other than a Borrower without prior written consent of Agent; (xiii) for Receivables originated on or after December _21, 2017, Receivables with a contractual term in excess of 75 months; (xiv) for Receivables originated on or after December _21_, 2017, Receivables with a principal balance in excess of $40,000;
