waive an Event of Default arising out of Borrowers violation of the Fixed Charge
Coverage Ratio for quarter ending April 30, 2005. The Lender is willing to do so
on the terms and conditions hereafter set forth.

the Excess Availability shall not be less than $250,000."
3. WAIVER. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set

binding obligations of the Borrowers and are enforceable against the Borrowers
in accordance with their respective terms.

Agreement to the extent the same are not amended hereby and agree that all such
