FIRST AMENDMENT TO

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”), dated as of March 24, 2010 (the “Amendment Date”), is made by and between AUTOINFO, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Parent Company”) and its direct and indirect Subsidiaries, namely, SUNTECK TRANSPORT CO., INC. (“Sunteck”), ELEETS LOGISTICS, INC. (“ELEETS”), SUNTECK TRANSPORT CARRIERS, INC. (“STC”), SUNTECK GOVERNMENT LOGISTICS, INC. (“SGL”), SUNTECK TRANSPORT GROUP, INC., a Florida corporation (“STG”), RAILPORT SERVICES, INC., a Florida corporation (“RSI”) and AMERICAN SHIPPERS DISPATCH, INC. (“ASD”), all of which are Florida corporations (Parent Company, together with Sunteck, ELEETS, STC, SGL, RSI and ASD, herein called, collectively, the “Borrowers” and, individually, a “Borrower”), and REGIONS BANK (“Lender”), for the purpose of amending that certain Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of February 17, 2009, made between Borrowers and Lender (as amended hereby, the “Loan Agreement”), as an accommodation to Borrowers made at their request in reliance by Lender on the terms and conditions herein contained.

1.            Definitions, Etc.  Capitalized terms used in this Amendment, but not expressly defined herein, shall have the same meanings as given to such terms in the Loan Agreement.  Section references used in this Amendment shall mean Sections references in the Loan Agreement.

2.            Statement of Facts.  As of the Amendment Date, a certain Event of Default is known to have occurred and be continuing, namely, in respect of Section 8.2(b) (Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio) of the Loan Agreement as the Fiscal Month ended December 31, 2009 (the foregoing herein called the “Known Default”).  Borrowers have requested that Lender waive the Known Default and make certain other accommodations to Borrowers, which Lender has agreed to do subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein below.

3.            Waivers and Suspension.  Lender hereby waives the Known Default but solely in regard to the specific time and matter described above and with the understanding that the foregoing is not intended, and shall not be construed, to imply that any waiver has been, or will be, granted as to any other Event of Default, whether present or future, and whether in regard to said Section 8.2(b)of the Loan Agreement or otherwise, except solely as expressly set forth hereinabove.

4.            Amendments.  The Loan Agreement shall be amended as follows:

4.1           Applicable Margin.  The definition of “Applicable Margin,” appearing in Section 1.2 of the Loan Agreement, shall be amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows:

“Applicable Margin” means (i) as to any Revolving Loan made as a LIR Loan, one and 50/100ths of one percent (1.50%) per annum and (ii) as to any Revolving Loan made as a Base Rate Loan, one and 50/100ths of one percent (1.50%) per annum; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, effective beginning on March 1, 2010 the “Applicable Margin” shall be determined from time to time on each Determination Date (as defined below), by reference to the following pricing table:

	Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio	Applicable Margin LIR Loans	Base Rate Loan
Level I	Greater than 6.00 to 1.00	2.00%	1.00%
Level  II	Less than or equal to 6.00 to 1.00, but greater than 5.00 to 1.00	1.75%	.75%
Level  III	Less than or equal to 5.00 to 1.00	1.50%	.50%

The Applicable Margin shall be subject to reduction or increase, as applicable and as set forth in the table above, on a monthly basis as of each Determination Date (as defined below), according to the performance of the Borrowers as measured by the Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio as determined in the manner provided in Section 8.2(b) and reported in accordance with Section 6.6(d).  Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, any increase or reduction in the Applicable Margin provided for herein shall be effective on each Determination Date.  Without limiting Lender’s rights to invoke the Default Rate, if (i) the financial statements and the compliance certificate of the Borrowers setting forth the Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio are not received by Lender by the date required pursuant to Section 6.6(d) or (ii) an Event of Default occurs and Lender so elects, then, in each case, the Applicable Margin shall be at Level I until such time as such financial statements and compliance certificate are received and any Event of Default (whether resulting from a failure to timely deliver such financial statements or compliance certificate or otherwise) is waived in writing by Lender.  As used herein, “Determination Date” means the first day of the first calendar month after the date on which Borrower provides the monthly compliance certificate and financial statements under Section 6.6(d), for the Fiscal Month in question, beginning with the Fiscal Month ending January 31, 2010.  For avoidance of doubt, the Applicable margin as of March 1, 2010 is at Level I above.

In the event that any financial statement or certificate required by Section 6.6(c) is shown to be inaccurate (regardless of whether this Agreement or the Commitment is in effect when such inaccuracy is discovered), and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to the application of a higher Applicable Margin for any period (an “Applicable Period”) than the Applicable Margin applied for such Applicable Period, then (i) Borrowers shall immediately deliver to Lender a correct certificate for such Applicable Period, (ii) the Applicable Margin for such Applicable Period shall be determined by reference to such certificate, and (iii) Borrower shall promptly pay Lender, on demand, the accrued additional interest owing as a result of such increased Applicable Margin for such Applicable Period, which payment shall be promptly applied by Lender in accordance with the terms hereof.

2

4.2           The definition of “Flat Rate” appearing in Section 1.2 of the Loan Agreement shall be amended and restated, in its entirety, to read as follows:

“Flat Rate” shall mean a simpler interest rate equal to three percent (3.0%) per annum; provided, however, that, effective on March 1, 2010, and continuing at all times thereafter, the Flat Rate shall be determined by Lender instead based upon the Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio; that is, if the Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio for the Fiscal Month then most recently ended as determined by Lender is greater than 6.00 to 1.00, then, the Flat Rate shall be three and 50/100ths of one percent (3.50%) per annum; if the Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio for such Fiscal Month is less than or equal to 6.00 to 1.00 but greater than 5.00 to 1.00, then, the Flat Rate shall be three and 25/100ths of one percent (3.25%) per annum and if the Funded Bet to EBITDA Ratio is less than or equal to 3.00 to 1.00, then, the Flat Rate shall be three percent (3.0%) per annum.  For avoidance of doubt, the Flat Rate as of March 1, 2010, is three and 50/100ths of one percent (3.50%) per annum. The Flat Rate shall also be subject to review and adjustment by Lender from time to time in the same manner and to the same extent as provided in the definition of “Applicable Margin” for the periodic determination thereof.

4.3           Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio.  Section 8.2(b) of the Loan Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety, to read as follows:

(b) Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio.  The Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio for each Fiscal Month, beginning with the Fiscal Month ending January 31, 2009 shall be not more than 5.00 to1; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the forgoing,  beginning with the Fiscal Month ending January 31, 2010, and continuing through the Fiscal Month ending December 31, 2010, the Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio for each Fiscal Month shall be not more than 7.50 to 1, and beginning with the Fiscal Month ending January 31, 2011 and continuing thereafter, the Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio shall be not more than 6.00 to 1.

5.            Conditions Precedent.  Completion of the following to Lender’s satisfaction shall constitute express conditions precedent to the effectiveness of the amendments set forth in Section 4 above:  (i) Lender and Borrowers shall have executed and delivered this Amendment.
