agrees that its failure to comply with the previous sentence is an Event of Default under the

commitment fee of $72,000 (which fee of 45 bps on the Total Availability Amount includes the
amendment fee) plus all fees and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by Lender in
connection with the negotiation and preparation of this Amendment and all documents related
thereto.
5. Continued Validity of Agreement. Except as modified by this Amendment, the
Agreement and all Loan Documents will continue in full force and effect as originally
constituted and are ratified and affirmed by the parties hereto. Each reference in the
Agreement
or the other Loan Documents to the Agreement means the Agreement, together with this
Amendment, unless the context otherwise requires. This Amendment and the Agreement must
be read as one document.

as follows: (a) as of the effective date of this Amendment, Borrower has complied, and is in
compliance with, all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Agreement and the other
Loan
Documents; (b) as of the effective date of this Amendment, there exists no Event of Default

other Loan Documents are true and with the same effect as of the date hereof; and (d) Borrower will
continue to be in compliance with all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Agreement and
the other Loan Documents, and all representation and warranties will continue to be true, upon this
Amendment becoming effective.

to create, a novation or accord and satisfaction, and, except as otherwise provided herein,
the
Agreement will remain in full force and effect.
10. Entire Agreement. This document constitutes the entire agreement by and
between Borrower and Lender with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior
and contemporaneous negotiations, communications, discussions and agreements concerning
such subject matter.
