| D. | The Borrower and Guarantors have now asked the Bank to extend the Maturity Date from February 15, 2009 to May 1, 2009 (the “Extended Maturity Date”). The Bank has agreed to this extension, subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions stated in this Amendment. |
| E. | The Borrower, the Guarantors, and the Lender have agreed to execute this Amendment in order to recognize the extension of the Maturity Date to the Extended Maturity Date. |

The principal balance of this Note shall be payable in monthly installments of outstanding principal and interest in the amount of Eighteen Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($18,000.00) each, all of which will be due and payable on or before the first day of each and every month until all sums called for hereunder have been paid in full, beginning on March 1, 2009, said installments to be made until the final date of maturity, May 1, 2009, at which point all of the outstanding principal and accrued interest will be due and payable in full.
3. Effectiveness.

| B. | All references to the Existing Loan Agreement herein or in any other document or instrument among Borrower, Guarantors, and Lender shall hereafter be construed to be references to the Existing Loan Agreement, as modified by this Amendment (as so modified, the “Loan Agreement”). |
| C. | Borrower and Guarantors expressly acknowledge and agree that until such time as they have tendered full and final payment of all fees and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Bank down to the date of this Amendment, the extension granted by the Bank under this Amendment shall be invalid and of no force and effect. |
