Capitalized terms used but not defined in this letter shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Financing Agreement.

 

The Credit Parties, Agent and Lenders hereby agree that the Forbearance Agreement is hereby amended by deleting clauses (a) and (b) set forth in Section 6 thereof in their entirety and replacing them with the following, respectively:

 

“(a)     IPO. On or prior to February 11, 2011, the Companies shall consummate an IPO, pursuant to which Borrower will issue at least 1,700,000 units (collectively, the “Units”), each consisting of one share of Common Stock and a warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock for a purchase price equal to or greater than $4.25 per Unit (the “February IPO”).”



“(b)     IPO Prepayment. On or prior to February 16, 2011, the Companies shall pay to Agent in cash in immediately available funds an amount equal to $2,000,000 from the proceeds of the February IPO, which amount shall be applied to reduce the principal balance of the Term Note; provided however, if, upon exercise of the underwriter’s overallotment option, Borrower issues greater than 1,700,000 Units in connection with the February IPO, such amount shall be increased on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the cash proceeds (net of all underwriting, dealer, and brokerage fees, discounts and commissions) received in connection with such additional issuance (up to an aggregate amount not to exceed $2,700,000).”

 

Except as specifically amended hereby, all terms, conditions, covenants, representations and warranties contained in the Forbearance Agreement, the Financing Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, and all rights of the Lenders and the Agent and all of the obligations under the Forbearance Agreement, the Financing Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, shall remain in full force and effect.
