shall have the meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement.
An Event of Default has occurred under the Credit Agreement as a result
of Borrowers' non-compliance with (i) Section 12(o) of the Credit Agreement with
respect to the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2005 due to Borrowers' failure
to maintain its required Net Worth at the end of such fiscal quarter and (ii)
Section 12(p) and Section 12(r) of the Credit Agreement with respect to the
fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2005 due to Borrowers' failure to maintain
the requisite Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio and EBITDA level for the four fiscal
quarters then ended. Borrowers have requested that such Events of Default be
waived. By its signature below, Lender hereby waives such Event of Default
solely for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2005.

other documents, instruments and agreements executed and/or delivered in
connection therewith, shall remain in full force and effect, and are hereby
ratified and confirmed. The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this letter
agreement shall not, except as expressly provided herein, operate as a waiver of
any right, power or remedy of Lender, nor constitute a waiver of any provision
of the Credit Agreement or any other documents, instruments or agreements
executed and/or delivered under or in connection therewith.
Very truly yours,
