Amounts borrowed as Term Loans which are repaid or prepaid by the Company may not be reborrowed.

        (i)   after giving effect to any Borrowing of Revolving Loans, the Effective Amount of all Revolving Loans plus the Effective Amount of all L/C Obligations, shall not at any time exceed the lesser of (x) $5,000,000 (such amount, as the same may be reduced pursuant to Section 2.5 or 2.7 being herein called, the “Total Revolving Commitment”) and (y) an amount equal to 15% of Consolidated Accounts Receivable; and

        (ii)   the Effective Amount of the Revolving Loans of any Bank plus the participation of such Bank in the Effective Amount of all L/C Obligations shall not at any time exceed such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the Total Revolving Commitment.

        2.5   Voluntary Termination or Reduction of Commitments. The Company may, upon not less than five Business Days’ prior notice to the Agent, terminate the Total Revolving Commitment, or permanently reduce the Total Revolving Commitment (or the L/C Commitment) by an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 or any multiple of $250,000 in excess thereof; unless, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of Loans made on the effective date thereof, (a) the Effective Amount of all Revolving Loans and L/C Obligations together would exceed the amount of the Total Revolving Commitment then in effect, or (b) the Effective Amount of all L/C Obligations then outstanding would exceed the L/C Commitment.

        The optional prepayment provisions of this Section shall apply to both Revolving Loans and Term Loans in such order as the Company shall specify, it being understood, however, that (subject to Section 2.12(d)) any prepayment of the Term Loans shall be in the inverse order of maturity.

       (b)   Debt Issuance. If the Company or any Subsidiary shall issue any Indebtedness (other than $10,000,000 of Subordinated Debt permitted under Section 8.5(h)), the Company shall promptly notify Agent of the estimated Net Cash Proceeds to be received by the Company or such Subsidiary in respect thereof. Within three Business Days of the receipt by the Company or such Subsidiary of the Net Cash Proceeds of such issuance, the Company shall make a mandatory prepayment of the Loans in an amount equal to 100% of the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds; provided that to the extent the Company or any Subsidiary shall issue any Subordinated Debt the Net Cash Proceeds of which (together with any Net Cash Proceeds of any Equity Issuance pursuant to Section 2.7(c) below) shall exceed $10,000,000 then the prepayment in respect of such issue shall be limited to 50% of the Net Cash Proceeds in excess of $10,000,000 (except to the extent that the proceeds thereof are concurrently used to fund an Eligible Acquisition in which event no prepayment shall be required from such proceeds).

       (c)   Equity Issuance. If the Company or any Subsidiary shall make any Equity Issuance after January 31, 2002, the Company shall promptly notify the Agent of the estimated Net Cash Proceeds to be received by the Company or such Subsidiary in respect thereof.

If on any date the Effective Amount of L/C Obligations exceeds the L/C Commitment, the Company shall Cash Collateralize on such date the outstanding Letters of Credit in an amount equal to the excess of the maximum amount then available to be drawn under the Letters of Credit over the L/C Commitment.

       (e)  Excess Cash Flow. As soon as the necessary financial information is available to determine the amount, if any, of Excess Cash Flow generated by the Company and its Subsidiaries during the then-preceding fiscal year, but not later than each March 31, beginning March 31, 2003, the Company shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to 50% of such Excess Cash Flow, if any, for the then-preceding fiscal year of the Company, provided that no prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.7(e) shall be required if the Leverage Ratio (determined so that the numerator shall be exclusive of Subordinated Debt) is less than 1.25:1.

       (f)  Excess Revolving Exposure. If on any date (after giving effect to any Cash Collateralization made on such date pursuant to subsection 2.7(d)), the Effective Amount of all Revolving Loans then outstanding plus the Effective Amount of all L/C Obligations exceeds the Total Revolving Commitment (whether because of a reduction of the Total Revolving Commitment pursuant to Section 2.1 or this Section 2.7 or otherwise), the Company shall immediately, and without notice or demand, prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans and L/C Advances by an amount equal to the applicable excess.

       (g)   Applications. Each payment of the Loans and each reduction of the Commitments shall be applied to each Bank according to its Pro Rata Share. Any prepayments pursuant to this Section 2.7 shall be applied first to the Term Loans in the inverse order of maturity (subject to Section 2.12(d)) until the Term Loans have been repaid in full, and then to the Revolving Loans (it being understood that subject to the foregoing, Base Rate Loans shall be repaid before LIBO Rate Loans and that LIBO Rate Loans with the shortest Interest Periods shall be repaid prior to the repayment of other LIBO Rate Loans). The Company shall pay, together with each prepayment under this Section 2.7, accrued interest on the amount prepaid and any amounts required pursuant to Section 4.4.

       (a)   The Term Credit. The Company agrees that on (or within 45 days before) the last Business Day of each fiscal quarter (each, a “Principal Payment Date”) set forth below, the Company shall make a principal payment on the Term Loans in an amount equal to the amount applicable to such Principal Payment Date, as follows:
