All capitalized terms used in this Letter Amendment, but not otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement.
 
Borrower hereby requests that the Lenders unanimously extend the Maturity Date to January 9, 2012 from December 23, 2011 in accordance with Section 11.4(a)(iii) of the Agreement. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of a fully-executed copy of this Letter Amendment, the definition of “Maturity Date” as set forth in the Agreement shall be amended hereby to state “January 9, 2012.”
 
In connection herewith, Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Lenders that (a) the representations and warranties contained in the Loan Documents are true and complete in all material respects as of the date hereof (except to the extent such representations and warranties relate to an earlier date, in which case they are true and complete as of such date) and will continue to be so true and complete in all material respects immediately after giving effect to this Letter Amendment, and (b) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing as of the date hereof and none will occur immediately after giving effect to this Letter Amendment.
 
Except as expressly amended by this Letter Amendment, the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects. This Letter Amendment constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior oral or written understandings and agreements between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Letter Amendment may be executed and delivered (by facsimile, e-mail or other electronic transmission) in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement. Section 13.1 (Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Service of Process; Venue) of the Agreement is hereby incorporated by reference herein and made a part hereof as if fully set forth herein.
