Company exceed the limit in such covenant of $2,500,000); (ii) 6.06(b)(i) (in
that the ratio of 0.95 to 1.00 of Consolidated Current Assets to Consolidated
Current Liabilities for the fiscal quarter ended August 31, 1997 reported to the
Lender by the Borrowers and the Company was less than the ratio of 1.10 to 1.00

(in that the Consolidated Debt Service Coverage Ratio of 0.56 to 1.00 for the
fiscal year ended August 31, 1997 reported to the Lender by the Borrowers and
the Company was less than the ratio of 1.25 to 1.00 for such period as required
by such covenant); and
WHEREAS, the Lender is willing to waiver such violation or violations
subject to the terms and conditions hereof;
NOW, THEREFORE, WITNESSETH, that for good and valuable consideration, the
receipt of which the parties hereby acknowledge, the parties hereto agree as
follows:
1. The Lender hereby waives the aforesaid violations of the aforesaid
covenants of the Credit Agreement by the Borrowers and the Company (but such
waiver shall extend solely to the violation of such covenants for the periods
hereinabove described and not to any subsequent fiscal year or fiscal quarter as
appropriate).
2. The Company and the Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to pay to
the Lender within 30 days from the date hereof, a waiver fee of $10,000, which
amount shall not be a credit against any other amounts now or hereafter owing by
any of them to Lender. Each of the Borrowers and the Company hereby consents to
debits or charges by the Lender of such amount in the aggregate from any of
their accounts with Lender which Lender may select in its sole discretion (but
Lender's failure to make any such charges or debits shall not constitute a
defense to, or otherwise excuse the liability of Borrowers and the Company to
pay such fee within such 30 day period).
3. This Waiver Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which
when so executed and delivered (including by facsimile transmission of a signed
counterpart), shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together
shall constitute but one and the same instrument.
4. The Credit Agreement as heretofore amended shall remain in full force
and effect, and the Credit Agreement as so amended is hereby ratified an
confirmed by the Borrowers and the Company.
5. This Waiver Agreement shall constitute an additional Loan Document.
6. Each Borrower and the Company hereby represents and warrants to the
Lender that, after given effect to this Waiver, no Default or Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing as of the date hereof under the Credit Agreement.
7. Each of the Borrowers and the Company hereby warrants and represents to
the Lender that this Waiver Agreement has been authorized by all necessary
corporate and shareholder action and will not conflict with, violate or
constitute a default under their any of charters, by-laws or any agreements,
instruments or other documents to which they or any one of them is a party or by
which any of their assets are bound and that the same does not and will not
violate any applicable laws or regulations.
8. Without limiting or being limited by Section 8.03(b) of the Credit
Agreement, the Borrowers, jointly and severally, indemnify the Lender and each
Related Party of the Lender (each such person being called an "Indemnitee")
against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims,
damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and
disbursements of counsel for any Indemnitee, arising out of, in connection with,
or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Wavier Agreement or any
other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or
thereby, or the performance by the parties hereto or thereto of their respective
obligations hereunder or thereunder, or the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby, or (ii) any actual or prospective claim,
litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing,
whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether
any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided, that such indemnity shall not, as
to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction by any final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Waiver Agreement to
be executed and delivered in the City of New York as of the date fist
hereinabove written.
