execute and deliver this Loan Modification Agreement and the other documents
executed and/or delivered in connection herewith (collectively, the
"Modification Documents") and to perform its respective obligations hereunder
and thereunder, and under the Existing Loan Documents, as amended hereby. Each
of this Loan Modification Agreement and the other Modification Documents has
been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Borrower, and does not
contravene any law, rule or regulation applicable to Borrower or any of the
terms of its Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws, or any other indenture,
agreement or undertaking to which Borrower is a party. This Loan Modification
Agreement and the other Modification Documents effectively amend the Existing
Loan Documents in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof. Borrower's
obligations hereunder and under the other Modification Documents, and under the
Loan Agreement and the other Existing Loan Documents, each as amended hereby
and thereby, constitute legally valid and binding obligations of Borrower

as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium, or other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally
and by equitable principles.
(b) All of the representations and warranties made by Borrower in
the Loan Agreement and the other Existing Loan Documents are true and correct
on the date hereof as if made on and as of the date hereof and are so repeated

Agreement and the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section

Borrower in Section 6 hereof shall be true and correct; and

satisfactory to Bank, such other documents as Bank shall deem

and agreements, as set forth in the Existing Loan Documents and herein, and
Borrower hereby ratifies and affirms all such representations and warranties as
if fully restated herein. Except as expressly modified pursuant to this Loan
Modification Agreement, the terms of the Existing Loan Documents remain
unchanged and in full force and effect. Bank's agreement to modification of the
Existing Loan Documents pursuant to this Loan Modification Agreement in no way
shall obligate Bank to make any future amendments or modifications to the
Existing Loan Documents. Nothing in this Loan Modification Agreement shall
constitute a novation or satisfaction of the Borrower's Obligations to Bank. It
is the intention of Bank and Borrower to retain as liable parties all makers
and endorsers of Existing Loan Documents, unless the party is expressly
released by Bank in writing. No maker, endorser, or guarantor will be released
by virtue of this Loan Modification Agreement. The terms of this paragraph
apply not only to this Loan Modification Agreement, but also to all subsequent
loan modification agreements.
9. MISCELLANEOUS. This Loan Modification Agreement shall be considered a
"Loan Document" under and as defined in the Loan Agreement. TO THE FULLEST
EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BORROWER AND BANK EACH HEREBY WAIVE THEIR
RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OR ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR
ARISING OUT OF ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS
CONTEMPLATED THEREIN, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY
CLAIMS, AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW OR STATUTORY CLAIMS. EACH PARTY RECOGNIZES AND
AGREES THAT THE FOREGOING WAIVER CONSTITUTES A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR IT TO

TO ENFORCE ANY JUDGMENT OBTAINED AGAINST THE BORROWER IN CONNECTION WITH THIS
AGREEMENT OR SUCH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, MAY BE BROUGHT BY THE BANK OR BORROWER
IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT SITTING IN THE COUNTY OF THE STATE IN WHICH
BANK'S ADDRESS SHOWN IN SECTION 10 ABOVE IS LOCATED, OR IN ANY OTHER COURT TO
THE JURISDICTION OF WHICH SUCH BORROWER OR ANY OF ITS PROPERTY IS OR MAY BE
SUBJECT. EACH OF THE BORROWER AND THE BANK IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE

ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE OBJECTION TO VENUE IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND ANY PRESENT OR
FUTURE CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH COURT IS AN INCONVENIENT FORUM, IN CONNECTION WITH
