17. Amendments and Waivers.

its entirety and the following substituted therefor:
"(b) Neither this Agreement nor any other Financing Agreement
nor any terms hereof or thereof may be changed, waived, discharged or
terminated unless such change, waiver, discharge or termination is in
writing signed by Agent and the Required Lenders, and as to amendments

change, waiver, discharge or termination shall:

consent of Agent and all Lenders,
(ii) reduce the interest rate or any fees or the
extension of the time of payment of interest or any fees or
reduction in the principal amount of any Loan or Letter of
Credit Accommodations, in case without the consent of each
Lender directly affected thereby,
(iii) increase the Commitment of any Lender over the
amount thereof then in effect or provided hereunder (it being
understood that a waiver of any Event of Default shall not
constitute a change in the terms of any Commitment of any
Lender), in each case without the consent of each Lender
directly affected thereby,
(iv) release any Collateral (except as expressly
required by the Financing Agreements and except as permitted
under Section 12.11(b) hereof) or subordinate the liens of

(ix) increase the advance rates constituting part of
any Borrowing Base without the consent of all Lenders, except
that the consent of Term Loan Lender shall not be required in
the case of any increase in the advance rates constituting
part of any Borrowing Base, which increase is the result of an
improvement in the valuation of Inventory reflected in any
appraisal of Inventory obtained by or provided to Agent
pursuant to this Agreement.
18. Collateral Matters. Section 12.11(b)(iv) of the Loan Agreement is
deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
1.
"(iv) having a value of less than $2,000,000 and which does
not include any Term Loan Priority Collateral"
19. The Agent. Section 12 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended by
adding the following Section 12.14 at the end thereof:
"12.14 Term Loan Lender as Successor Agent. In the event that
all Obligations other than in respect of the Term Loan are
fully and finally paid and satisfied, Agent may, and agrees
that it shall, promptly appoint Term Loan Lender as successor
agent hereunder; provided, that, Term Loan Lender shall have
provided to Agent an indemnity with respect to claims and
liabilities arising after Term Loan Lender becomes the Agent,
in form and substance satisfactory to Agent and its counsel".

adding the clause "of the Maximum Credit" after each reference to "percent" in
such Section.
21. Assignments, Participations. Section 13.6(a)(i) of the Loan
Agreement is hereby amended by adding the clause "to a fund or account managed
by a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender" at the end thereof.
22. Rights of Use of Term Loan Priority Collateral. Term Loan Lender
agrees that Agent may use (but not sell or otherwise dispose of) the Term Loan
Priority Collateral to the extent Agent deems it necessary or desirable in
connection with the exercise of its rights and remedies pursuant to the Loan
Agreement, the Uniform Commercial Code or applicable law, for the purpose of
selling or otherwise disposing of, or dealing with, any assets of any Obligor.
The use by Agent of the Term Loan Priority Collateral shall not constitute an
assumption by Agent or any Revolving Loan Lender of any obligations of any
Obligor to Term Loan Lender or to any other person. The rights granted by Term
Loan Lender to Agent hereunder shall be irrevocable and shall continue without
charge until the earlier of the final payment and satisfaction in full of the
Obligations in respect of the Revolving Loans and 180 days after the first to
occur of the exercise of any Enforcement Action by Agent for and on behalf of
Term Loan Lender or the acceleration by Agent of the payment of all or any
portion of the Obligations.
23. Special Availability Reserve. Without limiting any other rights or
remedies of Agent under the Loan Agreement or any of the other Financing
Agreements with respect to the establishment of reserves or otherwise, Agent may

24. Amendment Fee. In addition to all other fees, charges, interest and
expenses payable by Borrowers to Agent, Borrowers shall pay to Agent for the
ratable benefit of Revolving Loan Lenders a fee for entering into this Amendment
in an amount equal to $200,000, which fee is fully earned as of the date hereof
and due and payable on the date hereof, and which Agent may, at its option,
charge directly to the loan account(s) of Borrowers.
25. Representations and Warranties. In addition to the continuing
representations, warranties and covenants hereafter made by Borrowers or
Guarantors to Agent and Lenders pursuant to the other Financing Agreements,
Borrowers and Guarantors, jointly and severally,
hereby represent, warrant and covenant with and to Agent and Lenders as follows,
which representations, warranties and covenants are continuing and shall survive
the execution and delivery hereof, the truth and accuracy of, or compliance with
each, together with the representations, warranties and covenants in the other
Financing Agreements, being a continuing condition of the making of any Loans by
Agent or any Lender to Borrowers:
(a) This Amendment No. 4 has been duly authorized, executed
and delivered by each Borrower and Guarantor and is in full force and effect as
of the date hereof and the agreements and obligations of each Borrower and
Guarantor contained herein constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of
each Borrower and Guarantor enforceable against each of them in accordance with
their terms.
(b) No action of, or filing with, or consent of any
Governmental Authority, and no approval or consent of any other party, is or
will be required to authorize, or is or will be otherwise required in connection
with, the execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment No. 4.
(c) None of the transactions contemplated by this Amendment
No. 4 violate or will violate any applicable law or regulation, or do or will
give rise to a default or breach under any agreement to which any Borrower or
Guarantor is a party or by which any property of any Borrower or Guarantor is
bound.
(d) No Event of Default exists or has occurred as of the date
of this Amendment No. 4.
(e) The security interests in and liens of Agent and Lenders
upon all assets and properties of Borrowers and Guarantors are and shall
continue to be in full force and effect.
26. Conditions Precedent. The effectiveness of the amendments contained
herein shall only be effective upon the satisfaction of each of the following
conditions precedent in a manner satisfactory to Agent:
(a) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing
and no event shall have occurred or condition be existing and continuing which,
with notice or passage of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default;
(b) Agent shall have received an original of this Amendment
No. 4 and the Term Loan Fee Letter, each duly authorized, executed and delivered
by Borrowers and Guarantors; and
(c) after giving effect to this Amendment No. 4 and the
transactions contemplated hereby (including, without limitation, the payment of
fees and expenses associated herewith and the WIS Payments made on or about the
date hereof) the aggregate Excess Availability of Borrowers shall be not less
than $10,000,000.
27. Term Loan Lender Purchase Option.
(a) On or after the occurrence of an Event of Default, and for
so long as the same is continuing, Agent shall give Term Loan Lender and Huffy
three (3) Business Days prior notice of the intent of Agent and Required Lenders
to approve or consent to the acceleration of the Obligations or the commencement
of foreclosure on a material portion of the Collateral or the exercise by Agent
of any of its rights to sell or otherwise dispose of any material portion of the
Collateral (the "Acceleration Notice") unless, in the good faith judgment of
Agent, the giving of such Acceleration Notice will have an adverse effect upon
the Collateral or the collection of the Obligations ("Exigent Circumstances") in
which case the Acceleration Notice shall be given concurrently with such
acceleration or other action. Term Loan Lender shall have the option at any time
after the receipt of the Acceleration Notice, upon five (5) Business Days' prior
written notice to Agent (or, in Exigent Circumstances, immediately upon Term
Loan Lender's receipt of such Acceleration Notice) to purchase from Agent and
Lenders all of the Obligations other than Obligations in respect of the Term
Loan (the "Purchased Obligations"). Such notice from Term Loan Lender to Agent
with respect to the purchase of the Purchased Obligations shall be irrevocable.
(b) On the date specified by Term Loan Lender in such notice
(which shall not be less than five (5) Business Days, nor more than twenty (20)
days, after the receipt by Agent of the notice from Term Loan Lender of its
election to exercise such option, the "Closing Date"), Agent and Lenders shall,
subject to any required approval of any court or other regulatory or
governmental authority then in effect, if any, and sell to Term Loan Lender and
Term Loan Lender shall purchase from Revolving Loan Lenders the Purchased
Obligations pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance. Each Revolving Loan Lender
hereby represents and warrants that, as of the date hereof, no such approval of
any court or other regulatory or governmental authority is required for such
sale to Term Loan Lender of the Purchased Obligations owing to it. In the event
that Term Loan Lender shall send to Agent the irrevocable notice of Term Loan
Lender's intention to exercise the purchase option given by Agent to Term Loan
Lender under this Section 27, Agent and Lenders shall not approve or consent to
commence any foreclosure or other action to sell or otherwise realize upon the
Collateral; provided, that, the purchase and sale with respect to the Purchased
Obligations provided for herein shall have closed on or before the Closing Date
and Agent and Lenders shall have received final payment in full of the
Obligations as provided for herein on or before the Closing Date.
(c) Upon the date of such purchase and sale, Term Loan Lender
shall (i) pay to Agent for the account of Agent and Revolving Loan Lenders as
the purchase price therefor the full amount of all the Obligations (excluding
all amounts attributable to the Term Loan) then outstanding and unpaid,
including principal, interest, fees and expenses and shall furnish cash
collateral to Agent, for the ratable benefit of Revolving Loan Lenders, in such
amounts as Agent determines are reasonably necessary to secure Agent and
Revolving Loan Lenders from loss, cost, damage or expense, including attorneys'
fees and legal expenses, in connection with any contingent Obligations,
including issued and outstanding Letter of Credit Accommodations and checks or
other payments provisionally credited to the Obligations and/or as to which
Agent and Revolving Loan Lenders have not yet received final and indefeasible
payment, but not including the early termination fee which shall be subject to
clause (ii) below, and (ii) agree to pay to Agent for the account of the
Revolving Loan Lenders the share of the early termination fee that would
otherwise have been payable to each Lender based on its Pro Rata Share of the
Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 13.1(b) of the Loan Agreement within three
(3) Business Days after
the receipt thereof, provided, that, (A) the effective date of termination
occurs within one-hundred eighty (180) days after the effective date of the
purchase of the Obligations by Term Loan Lender and (B) all other Obligations
owing to Term Loan Lender have been paid to Term Loan Lender. Term Loan Lender
acknowledges, confirms and agrees that it will not consent to or approve any
amendment, modification or waiver of the provisions of Section 13.1(b) of the
Loan Agreement relating to the payment of the early termination fee during the
one-hundred eighty (180) day period referred to in clause (A) above without
first obtaining the prior written consent of Agent (which provision shall
survive the termination hereof).
(d) Such purchase price and cash collateral shall be remitted
by wire transfer in federal funds to such bank account of Agent as Agent may
designate in writing to Term Loan Lender for such purpose. Interest shall be
calculated to but excluding the Business Day on which such purchase and sale
shall occur if the amounts so paid by Term Loan Lender to the bank account
designated by Agent are received in such bank account prior to 12:00 noon,
Chicago time and interest shall be calculated to and including such Business Day
if the amounts so paid by Term Loan Lender to the bank account designated by
Agent are received in such bank account later than 12:00 noon, Chicago time.
(e) Such purchase shall be expressly made without
representation or warranty of any kind by Agent or any other Lender as to the
Obligations, the Collateral or otherwise and without recourse to Agent or any
other Lender, except that each Lender shall represent and warrant to Term Loan
Lender, severally and not jointly, as to the Obligations owing to such Lender:
(i) the amount of the Obligations owing to such Lender being purchased as
reflected in the books and records of such Lender (but without representation or
warranty as to the collectibility, validity or enforceability thereof), (ii)
that such Lender owns the Obligations owing to it free and clear of any liens or
encumbrances and (iii) the assignment is duly authorized by such Lender. Upon
the purchase by Term Loan Lender of the Obligations, Term Loan Lender agrees to
indemnify and hold Agent and Lenders harmless from and against all loss, cost,
damage or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses)
suffered or incurred by Agent and Lenders arising from or in any way relating to
acts or omissions of Term Loan Lender after the purchase. Upon the purchase by
Term Loan Lender of the Obligations, Agent may, at its option, resign as Agent
and Term Loan Lender shall become Agent.
28. Effect of this Amendment. Except as expressly set forth herein, no
other amendments, consents, changes or modifications to the Financing Agreements
are intended or implied, and in all other respects the Financing Agreements are
hereby specifically ratified, restated and confirmed by all parties hereto as of
the effective date hereof and Borrowers and Guarantors shall not be entitled to
any other or further amendment or consent by virtue of the provisions of this
Amendment No. 4 or with respect to the subject matter of this Amendment No. 4.
To the extent that any provision of the Loan Agreement or any of the other
Financing Agreements are inconsistent with the provisions of this Amendment No.
4, the provisions of this Amendment No. 4 shall control. The Loan Agreement and
this Amendment No. 4 shall be read and construed as one agreement.
29. Further Assurances; Deliveries. Borrowers, Guarantors and Term Loan
Lender shall execute and deliver such additional documents and take such
additional action as may be reasonably requested by Agent to effectuate the
provisions and purposes of this Amendment
No. 4. Huffy hereby authorizes Term Loan Lender to conduct within thirty (30)
days following the date hereof, a valuation of the tangible and intangible
assets of Borrowers and Guarantors at Canadian Borrower's expense not to
exceed $35,000.
30. Governing Law. The validity, interpretation and enforcement of this
Amendment No. 4 and the other Financing Agreements and any dispute arising out
of the relationship between the parties hereto whether in contract, tort, equity
or otherwise, shall be governed by and interpreted and determined in accordance
with the internal laws of the State of Illinois but excluding any principles of
conflicts of law or other rule of law that would cause the application of the
law of any jurisdiction other than the laws of the State of Illinois.
31. Binding Effect. This Amendment No. 4 shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of each of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns.
32. Counterparts. This Amendment No. 4 may be executed in any number of
counterparts, but all of such counterparts shall together constitute but one and
the same agreement. In making proof of this Amendment No. 4, it shall not be
necessary to produce or account for more than one counterpart thereof signed by
each of the parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this
Amendment No. 4 by telefacsimile shall have the same force and effect as
delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Amendment No. 4. Any party
delivering an executed counterpart of this Amendment No. 4 by telefacsimile also
shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Amendment No. 4, but the
failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the
validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Amendment No. 4 as to such
party or any other party.
