The Borrower and Lender are parties to Credit Agreement Number 18462590SLA dated as of December 28, 2016 (such agreement, as may be amended, is hereinafter referred to as the "Agreement"). The Borrower and Lender now desire to amend the Agreement. For that reason, and for valuable consideration (the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged), the Borrower and Lender agree as follows:

7.2 Debt Service Coverage Ratio. The Borrower will have at the end of each fiscal year of the Borrower a Debt Service Coverage Ratio (as defined below) for such year of not less than 1.20 to 1.00. For purposes hereof, "Debt Service Coverage Ratio" means: (a) consolidated net income (after taxes), plus depreciation and amortization, minus non-cash patronage income, minus extraordinary gains (plus losses), minus gain (plus loss) on asset sale; divided by (b) $4,000,000.00 (all as determined in accordance with the Accounting Standards).
2.Except as expressly amended hereby, all of the representations, warranties, terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Agreement and each other Loan Document shall remain unamended and otherwise unmodified and in full force and effect.
3.This Amendment, each Promissory Note and any other Loan Document may be executed in counterparts, each of which will constitute an original, but all of which when taken together will constitute a single contract.
