3. The Junior Creditor hereby subordinates, to the extent and in the manner set forth herein, all Subordinated Indebtedness howsoever evidenced and whether now existing or hereafter incurred to all Senior Indebtedness until all the Senior Indebtedness (other than the Remaining Obligations) shall be fully paid and satisfied.  The Junior Creditor and the Borrower covenant and agree that the Subordinated Indebtedness shall be junior in right of repayment or payment to the prior repayment in full of all Senior Indebtedness to the extent and in the manner set forth herein.  The Junior Creditor and the Borrower further covenant and agree that until all of the Senior Indebtedness (other than the Remaining Obligations) have been fully paid and satisfied, no payment of principal and/or interest on account of the Subordinated Indebtedness, or guaranty of any nature, shall be made or given, by or on behalf of the Borrower, nor be demanded, accepted, received or applied by the Junior Creditors for or on account of the Subordinated Indebtedness except (A) when (i) no Default and/or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing prior to and after making such payment, (ii) the Borrower provides to the Bank evidence that the Borrower is and will be in pro forma compliance with the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as of the then most recently completed fiscal quarter) set forth in Section 6.5 of the Loan Agreement prior to and immediately after making such payment, and (iii) the Borrower provides to the Bank evidence that the Borrower has and will have Undrawn Availability of not less than $1,000,000 prior to and after making such payment, then the Borrower may pay and the Junior Creditor shall have the right to receive cash interest and any and all accrued and unpaid interest, except to the extent that Borrower is otherwise limited or restricted from making such payments under the Loan Agreement and (B) the Borrower may pay and the Junior Creditor shall have the right to receive payments of principal solely with regard to the Subordinated Liquidity Note upon (i) the repayment or prepayment of the principal amount of the Term Loan in an amount of not less than $1,000,000, (ii) receipt and satisfactory review by the Bank of the Borrower’s annual financial statements deliverable pursuant to Section 9.7 of the Loan Agreement for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2013 which shall reflect, among other things, a calculation of EBITDA of the Borrower of not less than $1,500,000 for such fiscal period, (iii) receipt by the Bank of evidence that no Default and/or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at such time, (iv) receipt by the Bank of evidence that the Borrower has an Undrawn Availability of not less than $1,750,000 prior to and immediately after giving effect to any such payment of principal with regard to the Subordinated Liquidity Note, and (v) receipt by the Bank of evidence that the aggregate amount of any such payment of principal with regard to the Subordinated Liquidity Note, in full or in part, does not exceed an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of Excess Cash Flow of the Borrower for such fiscal year.

4. Notwithstanding the terms of any Security Agreement heretofore or hereafter entered into between the Junior Creditor or the Bank, and the Borrower, or the date of the filing of any financing statements heretofore or hereafter filed by the Junior Creditor or the Bank against Borrower, or any other action by the Junior Creditor or the Bank with regard to perfection of a security interest or lien, any security interest, lien, claim or right now or hereafter asserted by the Junior Creditor with respect to the Collateral shall be subject, junior and subordinate in all respects to the security interest, lien, claim or right now or hereafter asserted by the Bank with respect thereto.  As between the Bank and the Junior Creditor, the first priority of the Bank’s security interest in the Collateral shall not be affected by any failure to perfect any security interest or any lapse in perfection thereof.

5. The Junior Creditor covenants to the Bank that the Subordinated Indebtedness now existing or hereafter arising shall not be assigned to any other person, firm or corporation unless said person, firm or corporation executes a subordination agreement substantially in the form of this Subordination Agreement.

6. The Junior Creditor covenants to the Bank to not take any action which interferes with the Bank’s exercise of its superior security interest in, or lien on, the Collateral.   The Junior Creditor hereby waives any right to challenge the actions of the Bank in liquidating the Collateral whether such challenge is in the form of attacking manner of liquidation, timing of liquidation or otherwise.  The Junior Creditor and the Bank waive their right to require a marshalling of assets.

7. So long as any Senior Indebtedness shall remain unpaid, the Junior Creditor shall forthwith deliver to the Bank any payment or collateral security or the proceeds thereof received by the Junior Creditor in violation of the terms of this Subordination Agreement, in precisely the form received (except for endorsement by the appropriate Junior Creditor) for application on account of the Senior Indebtedness and, until so delivered, the same shall be held in trust by the Junior Creditor as the property of the Bank.

8. In order to carry out the terms and the intent of this Subordination Agreement more effectively, the Junior Creditor and Bank agree to do all reasonable acts and execute all further instruments reasonably necessary or convenient to preserve for the Bank and the Junior Creditor the benefit of this Subordination Agreement.

9. The Junior Creditor agrees that this Subordination Agreement shall constitute a continuing agreement of subordination and no action which the Bank, any other Lender or the Borrower may take or refrain from taking with respect to the Senior Indebtedness, or any note or notes representing the same, or any collateral therefor, including a waiver or release thereof, or any agreement or agreements in connection therewith, shall affect this Subordination Agreement or the obligations of the Junior Creditor hereunder until the complete repayment and satisfaction of the Senior Indebtedness (other than the Remaining Obligations).

10. No waiver shall be deemed to be made by the Bank of any of its rights hereunder unless the same shall be in writing and any waiver granted by the Bank shall be a waiver only with respect to the specific instance involved and it shall in no way impair the Bank’s rights or the Junior Creditor's obligations to the Bank in any other respect or at any other time.

11. The Junior Creditor agrees that the Junior Creditor shall take no steps, directly or indirectly, to enforce or seek to enforce any of its rights with respect to the Subordinated Indebtedness or any collateral security therefor, nor shall the Junior Creditor directly or indirectly take any action that shall interfere in any nature whatsoever with the rights of the Bank with respect to the Bank’s senior interests, whether by virtue of this Subordination Agreement or otherwise, except that the Junior Creditor shall have the right to take action or institute proceedings with respect to the Subordinated Indebtedness or any collateral security at any time after one hundred fifty (150) days (the “Standstill Period”) after the receipt by Bank of a notice from the Junior Creditor setting forth an event of default under the Subordinated Loan Documentation, provided that as of the expiration of the Standstill Period (such date being referred to as the “Collateral Enforcement Date”), such event of default remains uncured and is continuing; and so long as the Senior Indebtedness remains outstanding, the Junior Creditor agrees that any proceeds which it receives with respect to any collateral security shall be held by the Junior Creditor in trust for the Bank, and shall be promptly remitted to the Bank for application to the Senior Indebtedness, and in the event that the Bank institutes any action or proceedings with respect to any collateral security after the commencement by the Junior Creditor of any action or proceeding against the collateral security, the Junior Creditor shall desist from such enforcement efforts against such collateral security promptly upon being advised in writing by the Bank of the commencement of foreclosure or other enforcement efforts by the Bank against such collateral security..

12. The Junior Creditor and the Borrower agree to make proper notations in their respective books, records or other statements which evidence or record any Subordinated Indebtedness, specifically indicating that the Subordinated Indebtedness is subject to this Agreement.

13. The Bank and the Junior Creditor (each a “Secured Creditor”) shall (a) give the other written notice of: (i) sending any written notice to the Borrower of an event of default of the Subordinated Indebtedness or Senior Indebtedness, as applicable, which has not been waived or cured; (ii) any demand of payment of any of the Subordinated Indebtedness or the Senior Indebtedness, as applicable, (iii) any commencement of a foreclosure or other lien enforcement proceeding by the Junior Creditor or the Bank against the Borrower or any collateral security, in each case concurrently with the sending of such notice to the Borrower, and (iv) provide to the other Secured Creditor a copy of any written notice received by such Secured Creditor from a landlord or other third party of a default by Borrower under any lease or other agreement of the Borrower with such third party promptly after the receipt thereof by such Secured Creditor; provided that the failure of either Secured Creditor to send any such notices or provide such copy, as the case may be, shall not create a cause of action against such Secured Creditor or create any claim against it or effect the relative rights, duties or priorities established by this Subordination Agreement.  The failure by either Secured Creditor to send a copy of any such notice to the other shall not affect the validity of such notice as against Borrower. Borrower hereby authorizes and consents to each Secured Creditor sending to the other such notices or any other information with respect thereto.

14. All notices, requests and other communications pursuant to this Subordination Agreement shall be in writing, either by letter (delivered by hand or sent certified mail, return receipt requested) or facsimile (sending confirmed) or by overnight delivery addressed to the Bank at PNC Business Credit, 340 Madison Avenue, 11th Floor, New York, New York  10173, Attention: Brian Conway, Vice President, or to Borrower at its principal place of business as described in the Loan Agreement, Attention: Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, or to the Junior Creditor, Attention: William H. Milmoe at its address stated above, or such other address as any party may give notice to the others as herein provided.  Any notice, request or communication hereunder shall be deemed to have been given two days after being deposited in the mails, postage prepaid, or in the case of hand delivery, when delivered, or in the case of overnight delivery, the next Business Day, or in the case of telegraphic notice, upon delivery to the telegraph company, addressed as aforesaid except where otherwise provided in Subordination Agreement, provided, however, that notice of a change of address, as hereinabove provided, shall be deemed to have been given only when actually received by the party to which it is addressed.
