As used herein, the term “Loan Agreement” means, individually and collectively, the Non-Exim Loan Agreement and the Exim Loan Agreement. Each of the terms “January 2011 Amendment” and “January 2011 Amendment Date,” as respectively defined above, hereby is incorporated into the Loan Agreement.

B. Bank has extended credit to Borrower for the purposes permitted in the Loan Agreement.

C. Borrower has requested that Bank amend the Loan Agreement to waive the Designated Defaults (as defined in Section 2.1 below) as more fully set forth herein.

D. Bank has agreed to so amend the Loan Agreement, but only to the extent, in accordance with the terms, subject to the conditions and in reliance upon the representations and warranties set forth below.

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings given to them in the Loan Agreement.

2. Amendments to Loan Documents.

2.1 Limited Waiver of Designated Defaults. Borrower has advised Bank that Borrower anticipates that it will fail to comply with the Required EBITDA for any Fiscal Quarter Financial Covenant set forth in Section 6.9(b) of the Non-Exim Loan Agreement for the compliance period ending December 31, 2010 (the “Non-Exim Designated Default”). Borrower has also advised Bank that Borrower anticipates that it will fail to comply with the Required EBITDA for any Fiscal Quarter Financial Covenant set forth in Section 6.9(b) of the Exim Loan Agreement for the compliance period ending December 31, 2010 (the “Exim Designated Default” and together with the Non-Exim Designated Default, the “Designated Defaults”). Bank and Borrower agree that the Designated Defaults are hereby waived. It is understood by the parties hereto, however, that such waiver does not constitute a waiver of any other provision or term of either the Non-Exim Loan Agreement, the Exim Loan Agreement or any related document, nor a waiver of this covenant as of any other date, nor an agreement to waive in the future this covenant or any other provision or term of the Non-Exim Loan Agreement, the Exim Loan Agreement or any related document.

5. Release by Borrower and Guarantor. Each of Borrower and Guarantor (individually and collectively, “Obligor”) hereby agree as follows:

5.1 FOR GOOD AND VALUABLE CONSIDERATION, Obligor hereby forever relieves, releases, and discharges Bank and its present or former employees, officers, directors, agents, representatives, attorneys, and each of them, from any and all claims, debts, liabilities, demands, obligations, promises, acts, agreements, costs and expenses, actions and causes of action, of every type, kind, nature, description or character whatsoever, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, absolute or contingent, arising out of or in any manner whatsoever connected with or related to facts, circumstances, issues, controversies or claims existing or arising from the beginning of time through and including the date of execution of this Amendment (collectively “Released Claims”). Without limiting the foregoing, the Released Claims shall include any and all liabilities or claims arising out of or in any manner whatsoever connected with or related to the Loan Documents, the Recitals hereto, any instruments, agreements or documents executed in connection with any of the foregoing or the origination, negotiation, administration, servicing and/or enforcement of any of the foregoing.

5.2 In furtherance of this release, Obligor expressly acknowledges and waives any and all rights under Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, which provides as follows:

“A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR EXPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER

3

MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.” (Emphasis added.)

5.3 By entering into this release, Obligor recognizes that no facts or representations are ever absolutely certain and it may hereafter discover facts in addition to or different from those which it presently knows or believes to be true, but that it is the intention of Obligor hereby to fully, finally and forever settle and release all matters, disputes and differences, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected; accordingly, if Obligor should subsequently discover that any fact that it relied upon in entering into this release was untrue, or that any understanding of the facts was incorrect, Obligor shall not be entitled to set aside this release by reason thereof, regardless of any claim of mistake of fact or law or any other circumstances whatsoever. Obligor acknowledges that it is not relying upon and has not relied upon any representation or statement made by Bank with respect to the facts underlying this release or with regard to any of such party’s rights or asserted rights.

5.4 This release may be pleaded as a full and complete defense and/or as a cross-complaint or counterclaim against any action, suit, or other proceeding that may be instituted, prosecuted or attempted in breach of this release. Obligor acknowledges that the release contained herein constitutes a material inducement to Bank to enter into this Amendment, and that Bank would not have done so but for Bank’s expectation that such release is valid and enforceable in all events.

5.5 Obligor hereby represents and warrants to Bank, and Bank is relying thereon, as follows:

(a) Except as expressly stated in this Amendment, neither Bank nor any agent, employee or representative of Bank has made any statement or representation to Obligor regarding any fact relied upon by Obligor in entering into this Amendment.

(b) Obligor has made such investigation of the facts pertaining to this Amendment and all of the matters appertaining thereto, as it deems necessary.

(c) The terms of this Amendment are contractual and not a mere recital.

(d) This Amendment has been carefully read by Obligor, the contents hereof are known and understood by Obligor, and this Amendment is signed freely, and without duress, by Obligor.

(e) Obligor represents and warrants that it is the sole and lawful owner of all right, title and interest in and to every claim and every other matter which it releases herein, and that it has not heretofore assigned or transferred, or purported to assign or transfer, to any person, firm or entity any claims or other matters herein released. Obligor shall indemnify Bank, defend and hold it harmless from and

4

against all claims based upon or arising in connection with prior assignments or purported assignments or transfers of any claims or matters released herein.

6. Fee. In consideration for Bank entering into this Amendment, Borrower shall pay Bank a fee in the mutually agreed amount of $10,000.00, which fee shall be earned in full and payable concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Amendment. Such fee shall be non-refundable and in addition to all interest and other fees payable to Bank under the Loan Documents. Bank is authorized to charge such fee to Borrower’s loan account.

7. Bank Expenses. Borrower shall pay to Bank, when due, all Bank Expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), when due, incurred in connection with or pursuant to this Amendment.

8. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and all of such counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.
