· the letter of credit provision was deleted; 
· the Bank provided a term loan in the amount of $3 million, available to the Company in no more than six advances, each in an a minimum amount of $500,000 or a lesser amount which remains unadvanced if such advance is the third and final term loan advance. The advance will be available subject to certain conditions and will bear interest at a floating per annum rate equal to the sum of 0.25% plus the prime rate determined under the Agreement; 
· the parties modified the financial covenants to provide: 
· a quick ratio of 1.40 to 1.00 
· minimum tangible net worth ranging from $7 million plus adjustments from November 2011 to January 2012 to $4 million plus adjustments for August 2012 and each month thereafter; 
· the borrowing base is $2 million if the Company maintains at least $5 million in unrestricted cash with or through the Bank plus 80% of eligible accounts, as determined by the Bank; and   
· the maturity for each advance is 36 months after the advance but no later than April 1, 2015.
