The material amendments of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement:

(b)    allow voluntary prepayments of the entire principal amount of the term loan outstanding beginning on the second anniversary of the closing (December 17, 2014), provided the Company pays an early payment fee equal to (i) $525,000, if such prepayment is made after the second anniversary of the closing and up to the day immediately preceding the third anniversary of the closing, or (ii) $150,000, if such prepayment is made after the third anniversary of the closing and up to the day immediately preceding the fourth anniversary of the closing; and

(c)    delete the financial covenants requiring the Company to maintain a certain leverage ratio, a fixed charge coverage ratio, and a minimum cash balance.

The Company's obligations under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement continue to be guaranteed by the Guarantor, pursuant to an Amended and Restated Continuing Guaranty dated as of December 17, 2012, and will be guaranteed by any future domestic subsidiaries of the Company.
