WHEREAS, by this Amendment, Borrower and Lender intend to evidence such
amendments.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and the agreements
and covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Definitions.
(a) Additional Definition. Section 1 of the Loan Agreement is
hereby amended to include, in addition and not in imitation, the following
definition:
"Monthly Average Excess Availability" shall mean, at any time,
the average of the amount of the Excess Availability for the
immediately preceding thirty (30) days as calculated by Lender
based on the amount of the Excess Availability on each date
during such period."
(b) Interpretation. For purposes of this Amendment, unless
otherwise defined herein, all terms used herein, including, but not limited to,
those terms used and/or defined in the recitals above, shall have the respective
meanings assigned to such terms in the Loan Agreement.
2. Amendments.
(a) Collection of Accounts. Section 6.3(a) is hereby amended to
add the following before the last sentence thereof:
"Lender shall instruct the depository banks at which the
Blocked Accounts are maintained to transfer the funds on
deposit in the Blocked Accounts to such operating bank account
of Borrower as Borrower may specify in writing to Lender until
such time as Lender shall notify the depository bank
otherwise. Lender may notify the depository banks at which the
Blocked Accounts are maintained that the Blocked Account
Agreements are effective and may instruct such banks to
transfer all funds received or deposited into the Blocked
Accounts to the Payment Account at any time that either: (i)
an Event of Default, or act, condition or event which with
notice or passage of time or both would constitute an Event of
Default, shall exist or have occurred, or (ii) Monthly Average
Excess Availability shall at any time be less than
$7,500,000."
(b) Inventory Covenants. The reference to "twice" in the second
line of Section 7.3(d) of the Loan Agreement is hereby deleted and "once" is
substituted therefor.

12.1(c) of the Loan Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and the
following substituted therefor:

end of the then current term or renewal term of this
Agreement, in view of the impracticality and extreme
difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual
agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of
Lender's lost profits as a result thereof, Borrower agrees to
pay to Lender, upon the effective date of such termination, an
early termination fee in the amount equal to one (1%) percent
of the Maximum Credit plus $75,000."
(ii) Section 12.1(d) of the Loan Agreement is hereby deleted in its
entirety and the following substituted therefor:

Agreement at the request of Borrower prior to the end of the
term of this Agreement and the full and final repayment of all
Obligations and the receipt by Lender of cash collateral all
as provided in Section 12.1(a) above, Borrower shall only be
required to pay to Lender an early termination fee of $75,000
if such payments are made to Lender with the initial proceeds
of a financing transaction provided or underwritten by
Wachovia Bank, National Association to Borrower."
3. Amendment Fee. In addition to all other fees, charges,
interest and expenses payable by Borrower to Lender, Borrower shall pay to
