“‘Revolving Credit Maturity Date’ shall mean April 15, 2012, or such earlier date on which the entire unpaid principal amount of all Revolving Loans becomes due and payable pursuant to the terms hereof; provided, however, if any such date is not a business day, then the Revolving Credit Maturity Date shall be the next succeeding business day.”
2. The Revolving Credit Note is amended to extend the Maturity Date to April 15, 2012.
3.

Bank’s failure at any time to require strict performance by a Borrower of any provision shall not affect any right of Bank thereafter to demand strict compliance and performance. Any suspension or waiver of a right must be in writing signed by an officer of Bank.

Each Borrower represents and warrants that the representations and warranties contained in the Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects as of the date of this Amendment, other than any exceptions and qualifications to such representations and warranties as have been disclosed to the Bank in writing prior to the date of this Amendment, and that no Event of Default has occurred or is continuing.
