WHEREAS, at the present time the Company requests and the Bank is agreeable to amending the Agreement pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual agreements hereinafter set forth, it is agreed by the parties hereto as follows:

A G R E E M E N T S:

1. RECITALS. The foregoing Recitals are hereby made a part of this Amendment.

2. DEFINITIONS. All capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Agreement.

3. AMENDMENTS TO AGREEMENT.

3.1. Maturity Date. Section 1 of the Agreement is hereby amended by changing the maturity date of the Bank’s commitment for the Revolving Credit Loan to be “April 1, 2007.”

3.2. Revolving Note. All references in the Agreement to the term “Revolving Note” shall be deemed to be references to the Extension Revolving Note of even date herewith in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof.

3.3. Interest Payments on Floating Rate Loans. The fourth sentence of Section 3.B.(1) is hereby deleted and the following is substituted in lieu thereof:

“Interest on borrowings under this option shall be payable quarterly beginning on July 1, 2006, and continuing on the first day of each October, January, April, and July thereafter.”

3.4. LIBOR Rate. The first paragraph of Section 3.B.(2) is hereby deleted and the following is substituted in lieu thereof:

“(2) LIBOR (as defined below) plus 70 basis points (0.70%) (the “LIBOR Rate”). Borrowings under this option shall be on an “as available” basis for periods of three months each (each an “Interest Period”). Interest on borrowings under this option shall be payable quarterly beginning on July 1, 2006, and continuing on the first day of each October, January, April, and July thereafter. Borrowings under this Section (2) will be referred to as “Eurodollar Loans”.

For purposes hereof, “LIBOR” shall mean a rate of interest equal to (a) the per annum rate of interest at which United States dollar deposits for a period equal to the relevant Interest Period are offered in the London Interbank Eurodollar market at 11:00 a.m. (London time) two Business Days prior to the commencement of such Interest Period (or three Business Days prior to the commencement of such Interest Period if banks in London, England were not open and dealing in offshore United States dollars on such second preceding Business Day), as displayed in the Bloomberg Financial Markets system (or other authoritative source selected by the Bank in its sole discretion), divided by (b) a number determined by subtracting from 1.00 the then stated maximum reserve percentage for determining reserves to be maintained by member banks of the Federal Reserve System for Eurocurrency funding or liabilities as defined in Regulation D (or any successor category of liabilities under Regulation D), or as LIBOR is otherwise determined by the Bank in its sole and absolute discretion. The Bank’s determination of LIBOR shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. “Business Day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a legal holiday on which banks are authorized or required to be closed for the conduct of commercial banking business in Chicago, Illinois.”

3.5. LIBOR Automatic Rollover. A new Section 4.B. is hereby added to the Agreement to read as follows:

“B. LIBOR Conversion and Continuation. If pursuant to the notice received by the Bank the initial Interest Period of any Eurodollar Loan commences on any day other than the first Business Day of any month, then the initial Interest Period of such Eurodollar Loan shall end on the first Business Day of the following calendar month, notwithstanding the Interest Period specified in such notice, and the LIBOR Rate for such Eurodollar Loan shall be equal to the LIBOR Rate for an Interest Period equal to the length of such partial month. Thereafter, each Eurodollar Loan shall automatically renew for the Interest Period specified in the initial request received by the Bank, at the then current LIBOR Rate, unless the Company, pursuant to a subsequent written notice received by the Bank, shall elect the conversion of all or a portion of such Eurodollar Loan to a Floating Rate Loan. Each Interest Period occurring after the initial Interest Period with respect to any LIBOR Loan shall commence on the same day of each applicable month as the first day of the initial Interest Period. Whenever the last day of any Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Loan would otherwise occur on a day other than a Business Day, the last day of such Interest Period shall be extended to occur on the next succeeding Business Day. Whenever an Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Loan would otherwise end on a day of a month for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month, such Interest Period shall end on the last day of such calendar month, unless such day is not a Business Day, in which event such Interest Period shall be extended to end on the next Business Day. Upon receipt by the Bank of such subsequent notice, the Company may, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, elect, as of the last day of the applicable Interest Period, to convert any such Eurodollar Loan to a Floating Rate Loan.

Such notice shall be given before 11:00 a.m., Chicago time, on the proposed date of such conversion, specifying: (i) the proposed date of conversion; (ii) the aggregate amount of loans to be converted; and (iii) the type of loans resulting from the proposed conversion. The Company may not elect a LIBOR Rate, and an Interest Period for a Eurodollar Loan shall not automatically renew, with respect to any principal amount which is scheduled to be repaid before the last day of the applicable Interest Period, and any such amounts shall bear interest at the Prime Rate until repaid.”

4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. To induce the Bank to enter into this Amendment, the Company warrants that:

4.1. Authorization. The Company is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Amendment and is and will continue to be duly authorized to borrow monies under the Agreement, as amended hereby, and to perform its obligations under the Agreement, as amended hereby.
