(i) “Amendment No. 4” shall mean Amendment No. 4 to Loan and Security Agreement, dated August 31, 2010, by and among Lender, Borrowers and Guarantors, as the same now exists or may hereafter be amended, modified, supplemented, extended, renewed, restated or replaced.

(b) Amendments to Definitions.

(i) From and after September 1, 2010, the definition of “Adjusted Eurodollar Rate” in Section 1.4 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the reference to “one and one quarter (1.25%) percent per annum” and replacing it with “one (1.00%) percent per annum”.

2

provided, that, (i) the Applicable Margin shall be calculated and established once each calendar month (commencing with the month beginning September 1, 2010) based on the Monthly Average Excess Availability and shall remain in effect until adjusted thereafter after the end of the next calendar month, (ii) each adjustment of the Applicable Margin shall be effective as of the first day of each such calendar month based on the Monthly Average Excess Availability for the immediately preceding calendar month, and (iii) in the event that Borrowers fail to provide any Borrowing Base Certificate or other information with respect thereto for any period on the date required hereunder, effective as of the date on which such Borrowing Base Certificate or other information was otherwise required, at Lender’s option, the Applicable Margin shall be based on the highest rate above until the next Business Day after the Borrowing Base Certificate or other information is provided for the applicable period at which time the Applicable Margin shall be adjusted as otherwise provided herein. In the event that at any time after the end of any calendar month the Monthly Average Excess Availability for such calendar month used for the determination of the Applicable Margin was greater than the actual amount of the Monthly Average Excess Availability for such calendar month as a result of the inaccuracy of information provided by or on behalf of Borrowers to Lender for the calculation of Excess Availability, the Applicable Margin for such prior period shall be adjusted to the applicable percentage based on such actual Monthly Average Excess Availability and any additional interest for the applicable period as a result of such recalculation shall be promptly paid to Lender. The foregoing shall not be construed to limit the rights of Lender with respect to the amount of interest payable after a Default or Event of Default whether based on such recalculated percentage or otherwise.

3

guarantees in favor of Lender of the Obligations of the other Borrowers or any outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations), plus (ii) the amount of all Reserves then established in respect of Letter of Credit Obligations, plus (iii) the aggregate amount of all then outstanding and unpaid trade payables and other obligations of such Borrower which are outstanding more than thirty (30) days past due as of the end of the immediately preceding month (other than trade payables or other obligations being contested or disputed by such Borrower in good faith), plus (iv) without duplication, the amount of checks issued by such Borrower to pay trade payables and other obligations which are more than thirty (30) days past due as of the end of the immediately preceding month (other than trade payables or other obligations being contested or disputed by such Borrower in good faith), but not yet sent.”
