WHEREAS, the Borrowers, the Agent and the Lenders are parties to the Amended and Restated Financing Agreement dated as of April 1, 2005 (as amended to date, the “Financing Agreement”), pursuant to which the Lenders have agreed to make certain term loans and revolving loans to the Borrowers from time to time in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not to exceed the aggregate amount set forth in the Financing Agreement;

WHEREAS, the Borrowers have (a) notified the Lenders that the Tudor Notes and the EFG Notes have been amended and restated in their entirety and were replaced with new notes, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “New Subordinate Notes”) and (b) requested that the Lenders (i) waive any Event of Default that might otherwise arise under Section 8.01(d) of the Financing Agreement as a result of the Borrowers’ amending and restating the Tudor Notes and the EFG Note in violation of Section 6.02(r) of the Financing Agreement and (ii) amend Section 6.03(a) of the Financing Agreement; and based upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Lenders have agreed to such waiver;

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1.1 Definitions in Third Amendment. Any capitalized term used herein and not defined shall have the meaning assigned to it in the Financing Agreement.

1.2 Amendment to the Financing Agreement. Section 6.03(a) of the Financing Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

2. Waiver and Consent.

(a) Subject to Section 3 hereof, the Lenders consent to, and waive any Event of Default that would otherwise arise under Section 8.01(d) the Financing Agreement as a result of the Borrowers’ failure to comply with Section 6.02(r) of the Financing Agreement due to the amendment and restatement of the Tudor Note and the EFG Notes and the replacement of such notes with the New Subordinated Notes.
