provided, further, that (i) no such reduction in the Floating Rate
will be made if a Default Period exists at the time that such reduction would
otherwise be made and (ii) if such financial statements are amended or restated
and such amended or restated financial statements do not indicate that the
Borrowers’ Net Income for the fiscal year ending on or about December 31, 2007
exceeded One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), the Floating Rate shall be increased
to the Prime Rate minus one-quarter of one percent (¼ of 1%) effective as
of the date on which the Floating Rate was previously reduced and the Borrowers

reduction shall become effective, retroactive, as of the first calendar day
of
the month of receipt by the Lender of such financial statements, if such
financial statements are received by the Lender prior to the 25th day of
such month;
provided, further, that (i) no such reduction in the LIBOR Advance
Rate will be made if a Default Period exists at the time that such reduction

-

(vi)

the Credit Agreement is amended and restated as follows:
Section
2.9 Computation of Interest and Fees; When Interest Due and
Payable. Interest accruing on the outstanding principal balance
of the Advances and fees hereunder outstanding from time to time shall be
computed on the basis of actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360
days. Interest shall be payable in arrears on the first day of each
month and on the Termination Date (each an “Interest Payment Date”), or if any
such day is not a Banking Day, on the next succeeding Banking
Day. Interest will accrue from the most recent date to which interest
has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of advance to
the
Interest Payment Date. If an Interest Payment Date is not a Banking
Day, payment shall be made on the next succeeding Banking
Day. Interest accruing on each LIBOR Advance shall be due
and payable on the last day of the applicable Interest Period; provided,
however, for Interest Periods that are longer than one month, interest
shall nevertheless be due and payable monthly on the last day of each month,
and
on the last day of the Interest Period.
(vii) Section
2.11. Prepayment;
Termination of Credit Facility by the Borrowers; Termination Fees; Breakage
Fees. Section 2.11 of the Credit
Agreement is amended by (i) amending and restating paragraph (a) and (ii) adding
a new paragraph (d) to the end thereof as follows:
(a)
Termination by the Borrowers. Upon
termination of the Credit Facility on the Maturity Date, the Borrowers shall
provide the Lender with an executed release, in form and substance satisfactory
to the Lender, of any and all claims which each Borrower may have or thereafter
have under this Agreement, any Loan Document or otherwise. The
Borrowers may terminate the Credit Facility at any time by: (A) giving at least
thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Lender of their intention to
terminate the Credit Facility; (B) paying the Lender termination fees and
contracted funds breakage fees in accordance with subsections (b) and (d),
respectively, below if the Borrowers terminate the Credit Facility effective
as
of any date other than the Maturity Date; and (C) providing the Lender with
an
executed release in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender, of any and
all claims which each Borrower may have or thereafter have under this Agreement,
any Loan Document or otherwise.
(d)
Breakage Fees. The Borrowers may prepay the
principal amount of the Revolving Note at any time in any amount, whether
voluntarily or by acceleration, provided, however, that if the
principal amount of any LIBOR Advance is prepaid, the Borrowers shall pay to
the
Lender immediately upon demand a contracted funds breakage fee equal to the
sum
of the discounted monthly differences for each month from the month of
prepayment through the month in which the related Interest Period ends,
calculated as follows for each such month:
-
10 -
(i)
Determine
the amount of interest which would have accrued each month on the amount prepaid
at the interest rate applicable to such amount had it remained outstanding
until
the last day of the applicable Interest Period.
(ii) Subtract
from the amount determined in (i) above the amount of interest which would
have
accrued for the same month on the amount prepaid for the remaining term of
such
Interest Period at LIBOR in effect on the date of prepayment for new loans
made
for such term in a principal amount equal to the amount prepaid.
(iii) If
the result obtained in (ii) for any month is greater than zero, discount that
difference by LIBOR used in (ii) above.
The
Borrowers acknowledge that prepayment of the Revolving Note and any LIBOR
Advance may result in the Lender incurring additional costs, expenses or
liabilities, and that it is difficult to ascertain the full extent of such
costs, expenses or liabilities. The Borrowers therefore agree to pay
the above-described contracted funds breakage fee and agrees that said amount
represents a reasonable estimate of the contracted funds breakage costs,
expenses and/or liabilities of the Lender.
(viii)
Section 2.12. Section 2.12 of the
Credit Agreement is amended and restated as follows:
Section
2.12 Mandatory
Prepayments. Without notice or demand, if the outstanding
principal balance of the Advances made to any Borrower, plus the L/C Amount
allocable to such Borrower, shall at any time exceed such Borrower’s Borrowing
Base, the Borrowers shall immediately repay the Advances to the extent necessary
to eliminate such excess. Any payment received by the Lender under
this Section 2.12 or under Section 2.11 may be applied to the
Advances, including interest thereon and any fees, commissions, costs and
expenses hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, in such order and in
such
amounts as the Lender, in its discretion, may from time to time
determine. In furtherance and not in limitation of Section 2.3, the
Borrowers jointly and severally agree to permanently repay the aggregate
principal balance of the Structural Sublimit Advances (i) on the first Banking
Day of each month, beginning with the month of November 2007, by an
amount equal to Forty-One Thousand Six Hundred Sixty-Six Dollars and Sixty-Seven
Cents ($41,666.67), until the aggregate principal balance of the Structural
Sublimit Advances shall be reduced to zero (-0-). In furtherance and
not in limitation of Section 2.3, the Borrowers jointly and severally agree
to
repay the aggregate principal balance of the outstanding Overadvances, if any,
weekly by an amount equal to One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00)
beginning on August 1 of each year and on the corresponding day of each week
thereafter, until the aggregate principal balance of the Overadvances shall
be
reduced to zero (-0-).
-
11 -
(ix) Section
2.13. Payments. Section
2.13 of the Credit Agreement is amended and restated as follows:
Section
2.13 Payments. Any
payments of principal, interest, fees or any other amounts payable hereunder
or
under any other Loan Document shall be made to the Lender prior to 12:00 noon
New York time on the due date thereof in immediately available
funds. All payments to the Lender shall be made in immediately
available funds. For purposes of determining the balance of the Advances
outstanding, the Lender will credit (conditional upon final collection) all
such
payments to the account of the Borrowers upon receipt by the Lender
of good funds in dollars of the United States of America in the Lender’s
account, provided, however, for purposes of computing interest on the
Obligations, the Lender will credit (conditional upon final collection) all
such
payments to the Borrowers’ account one (1) day after receipt by Lender of such
immediately available funds in dollars of the United States of America in the
Lender’s account. Any amount received by the Lender after 12:00 noon
New York time on any Banking Day shall be deemed received on the next Banking
Day. The Lender may hold all payments not constituting immediately
available funds for one (1) additional day before applying them to the
Obligations. Notwithstanding anything in Section 2.1, the Borrowers hereby
authorize the Lender, in its discretion at any time or from time to time,
without the request of any Borrower or the Borrowing Agent and even if the
conditions set forth in Section 4.2 would not be satisfied, to make an Advance
in an amount equal to the portion of the Obligations from time to time due
and
payable. Any sums expended by the Lender due to the failure of any Borrower
to
perform or comply with its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, including, but not limited to the payment of taxes, Liens, insurance
premiums or leasehold obligations, shall be charged to the account of the
Borrowers as an Advance and added to the Obligations; provided, that the Lender
shall have no obligation to make any such payment and shall not by so doing
be
deemed to have assumed any obligation or liability of any Borrower.
(x) Article
II. Amount and Terms of the
Credit Facility. Article II of the
Credit Agreement is amended by adding a new Section 2.21 thereto as
follows:
Section
2.21 LIBOR
Advances.
(a)
Converting Floating Rate Advances to LIBOR Advances;
Procedures. So long as no Default Period is in effect,
the Borrowers may convert all or any part of the principal amount of any
outstanding Floating Rate Advance into a LIBOR Advance by requesting that the
Lender convert the same no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the Banking
Day on which the Borrowers wish the conversion to become effective;
provided that the Borrowers may not convert any outstanding Floating Rate
Advance into a LIBOR Advance (i) if after giving effect thereto the aggregate
principal amount of outstanding LIBOR Advances would exceed seventy-five percent
(75%) of the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Advances or
(ii) during Default Periods. Each request that conforms to
the terms of this Agreement shall be effective upon receipt by the Lender and
shall be confirmed in writing if the Lender so requests by any Officer or
designated agent identified in Section 2.1(b) or a Person reasonably believed
by
the Lender to be such an Officer or designated agent, which request shall
specify the Banking Day on which the conversion is to occur, the total amount
of
the Floating Rate Advance to be converted, and the applicable Interest
Period. Each such conversion shall occur on a Banking Day, and the
aggregate amount of Floating Rate Advances converted to LIBOR Advances shall
be
in multiples of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), with a
minimum conversion amount of at least Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
($500,000).
-
12 -
(b)
Procedures at End of an Interest
Period. Unless the Borrowers request a new LIBOR
Advance in accordance with the procedures set forth below, or prepay the
principal of an outstanding LIBOR Advance at the expiration of an Interest
Period, the Lender shall automatically and without request of the Borrowers
convert each LIBOR Advance to a Floating Rate Advance on the last day of the
relevant Interest Period. So long as no Default exists, the Borrowers
may cause all or any part of any maturing LIBOR Advance to be renewed as a
new
LIBOR Advance by requesting that the Lender continue the maturing Advance as
a
LIBOR Advance no later than the Cut-off Time on the Banking Day constituting
the
first day of the new Interest Period; provided that the Borrowers may not
continue a LIBOR Advance as such (i) if after giving effect thereto the
aggregate principal amount of outstanding LIBOR Advances would exceed
seventy-five percent (75%) of the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding
Advances or (ii) during Default Periods. Each such request shall be
confirmed in writing upon the Lender’s request by any Officer or designated
agent identified in Section 2.1(b) or a Person reasonably believed by the Lender
to be such an Officer or designated agent, which confirmation shall specify
the
amount of the expiring LIBOR Advance to be continued and the applicable Interest
Period. Each new Interest Period shall begin on a Banking Day and the
amount of each LIBOR Advance shall be in multiples of One Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($100,000), with a minimum Advance of at least Five Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($500,000).
(c)
Setting and Notice of Rates. The Lender
shall, with respect to any request for a LIBOR Advance under Section 2.1 or
a
conversion or renewal of a LIBOR Advance under this Section 2.21, provide the
Borrowers with a LIBOR quote for each Interest Period identified by the
Borrowers on the Banking Day on which the request was made, if the request
is
received by the Lender prior 11:00 a.m. (New York time), or for requests
received by the Lender after 11:00 a.m. (New York time), on the next Banking
Day
or on the Banking Day on which the Borrowers have requested that the LIBOR
Advance be made effective. If the Borrowers do not immediately accept a LIBOR
quote, the quoted rate shall expire and any subsequent request from the
Borrowers for a LIBOR quote shall be subject to redetermination by the Lender
of
the applicable LIBOR for the LIBOR Advance.
-
13 -
(d)
Taxes and Regulatory Costs. The Borrowers
shall pay the Lender with respect to any LIBOR Advance, upon demand and in
addition to any other amounts due or to become due hereunder, any and all (i)
withholdings, interest equalization taxes, stamp taxes or other taxes (except
income and franchise taxes) imposed by any domestic or foreign governmental
authority and related in any manner to LIBOR, and (ii) future, supplemental,
emergency or other changes in the LIBOR Reserve Percentage, assessment rates
imposed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or similar requirements
or
costs imposed by any domestic or foreign governmental authority or resulting
from compliance by the Lender with any request or directive (whether or not
having the force of law) from any central bank or other governmental authority
and related in any manner to LIBOR to the extent they are not included in the
calculation of LIBOR. In determining which of the foregoing are
attributable to any LIBOR option available to the Borrowers hereunder, any
reasonable allocation made by the Lender among its operations shall be
conclusive and binding upon the Borrowers.
(xi) Schedules
to Credit Agreement. Schedule
5.1, Schedule 5.4, Schedule 5.6, Schedule 5.12,
Schedule 5.16, Schedule 7.1, Schedule 7.2, Schedule
