Agreement
---------
Therefore, in consideration of the mutual execution of this First
Amendment and other good and valuable consideration, the parties to this First
Amendment agree as follows:
1. Definitions. Capitalized terms that are used in this First
Amendment but are not otherwise defined in this First Amendment shall have the
meanings ascribed to them in the Credit Agreement.
2. Modification. Section 3 of the Second Consent and Amendment is
amended to add the following additional subsection 3(c):
(c) The definition of "Capital Expenditures" is amended in
its entirety so that as amended, it reads as follows:
"Capital Expenditures" means all payments due (whether or
not paid during any fiscal period) in respect of the cost of any
fixed asset or improvement, or replacement, substitution, or addition
thereto, which has a useful life of more than one year, including,
without limitation, those costs arising in connection with the direct
or indirect acquisition of such asset by way of increased product or
service charges or in connection with a Capital Lease. Provided,
however, for the purpose of calculating the Fixed Charge Coverage
Ratio for a particular fiscal period, the amount of Capital
Expenditures subtracted from EBITDA shall be reduced by the following
amounts for the specified months:
Month: Reduction in amount of
Capital Expenditures for
calculations of the FCCR:
October, 2003 $169,000
November, 2003 $406,000
December, 2003 $1,038,000
January, 2004 $360,000

3. Miscellaneous. All references in the Second Consent and
Amendment to the "Consent and Amendment" or "Second Consent and
Amendment" will be deemed to include this First Amendment and the
terms contained in this First Amendment. Except as amended by this
First Amendment or otherwise inconsistent with the terms of this
First Amendment, all terms and conditions of the Second Consent and
Amendment remain in full force and effect in accordance with its
terms. This First Amendment may be executed in any number of
counterparts, all of which taken together will constitute one and the
same amendatory instrument. Any of the parties to this First
Amendment may execute this First Amendment by signing any such
counterpart and sending it by telecopier, mail messenger or courier
to the Agent or the Agent's counsel. The parties intend that this
First Amendment be interpreted, and the rights and liabilities of the
parties to this First Amendment be determined, under the internal
laws (as opposed to the conflict of laws provisions) of Illinois; but
the Agent and the Lenders retain all rights arising under federal
law.
