(b)

up to eighty-five percent (85%) of Eligible Accounts

(the “GEE Advance Formula”).

The aggregate of the TPS Maximum Amount and the GEE Maximum Amount may sometimes be collectively referred to as the “Maximum Amount” or the “Maximum Facility.”

Crestmark shall not allow any advances against (A) Accounts not previously approved by Crestmark where the expected dollar value for such Account Debtor is greater than ten (10%) percent of Borrower's existing Accounts, subject to review and change by Crestmark from time to time; provided, however, as to SunGard Higher Education, Inc., only, the lesser of (i) twenty-five (25%) percent of Borrower's existing Accounts, or (ii) $300,000.00, subject to review and change by Crestmark from time to time thereafter; and provided, however, as to Uranium Disposition Services, LLC, only, the lesser of (i) fifteen (15%) percent of Borrower's existing Accounts, or (ii) $150,000.00, subject to review and change by Crestmark from time to time thereafter; or (B) all of the Accounts owed by an Account Debtor where 25% or more of all of the Accounts owed by that Account Debtor are unpaid more than (a) as to GEE, 30 days from the invoice date; and (b) as to TPS, 90 days from the invoice date.

Crestmark may in its sole discretion raise or lower the advance rate with respect to the Advance Formula.

The Dilution Percentage is defined as: (i) uncollectable sales (as determined by Crestmark in its sole discretion, exercised in a commercially reasonable manner, and including all sales subject to a customer dispute) excluding Accounts that remain unpaid but are collectable, divided by (ii) total sales and (iii) stated as a percentage, as determined by Crestmark. Base Dilution means: (a) as to GEE, one percent (1%); and (b) at to TPS five percent (5%). Crestmark shall reduce the advance rate for Eligible Accounts by one percent (1%) for each percentage point that Base Dilution exceeds: (a) as to GEE, 1%; (b) as to TPS, 5%.

Eligible Accounts are accounts that arise in the ordinary course of business, are represented by an invoice, are presently due, are free from any dispute, are not from any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of Borrower, and are acceptable to Crestmark in its sole discretion. Excluded from Eligible Accounts are accounts that: (i) are more than (a) 30 days from employee start date as to GEE; and (b) 90 days from invoice date as to TPS; (ii) are from an Account Debtor that is located outside the United States; (iii) are from an Account Debtor on a xxxx and hold, guaranteed sale, C.O.D. sale, return sale of any kind, sale on approval, consignment or other conditional sale; (iv) are for tooling; or (v) are contra accounts or are from an Account Debtor who is owed money by Borrower; or are deemed unacceptable by Crestmark in its sole discretion.

Each month Borrower will pay Crestmark a monthly maintenance fee (the "Maintenance Fee") of Three Thousand Five Hundred and 00/100 Dollars ($3,500.00) commencing on the first (1st) day of November, 2009 and continuing on the first (1st) day of each month thereafter until Borrower has no Indebtedness outstanding and this Agreement is terminated.

“In the event that Advances are made in excess of Availability and the Borrower does not repay such overage immediately, Crestmark, in addition to its other rights herein, may charge a fee of 0.0493% per day on the amount of such overage.”

b. Section 4., subsections A., B. and C are deleted in their entirety and the following are substituted in their place:

“A. Before Crestmark makes any Advance to the Borrower, the Borrower must give Crestmark security for repayment of the Indebtedness. This security is known as a “Security Interest”. Borrower, by signing this Agreement, grants to Crestmark a Security Interest in all of its assets, now existing and hereafter arising, wherever located, including, without limitation, all accounts, goods, inventory, equipment, chattel paper, instruments, investment property, specifically identified commercial tort claims, documents, deposit accounts, letter of credit rights, general intangibles and supporting obligations for any of the foregoing (the “Collateral”), to secure repayment of the Indebtedness. The Collateral also includes all monies on deposit with Crestmark, or on deposit in the Lockbox Account which is described later. If any of the foregoing is at any time disposed of or sold, Crestmark also has a Security Interest in all of the proceeds of any of the foregoing.

B. Crestmark has the right to perfect its Security Interest by filing what is known as a financing statement or by taking possession of certain Collateral. In connection with the Security Interest, Borrower gives Crestmark all of the rights of a secured creditor under the Uniform Commercial Code (the “UCC”). All expenses of Crestmark relating to the Security Interest are part of the Indebtedness. In addition, the Borrower grants Crestmark the authority to file all appropriate documentation in order for Crestmark to perfect its security interest in the Collateral, including, without limitation, a UCC-1 financing statements that lists the collateral as “All assets of the Debtor, now existing and hereafter arising, wherever located,” or similar terms.

C. In connection with the Security Interest, Borrower must notify all persons who owe it on account (“Account Debtor”) of the Crestmark Security Interest on a form approved by Crestmark and all Account Debtors must be instructed to make all payments on the account, whether by credit cards, check or electronic transfer, to the Lockbox Bank, or as instructed by Crestmark in its sole discretion.”

c. Section 5. subsections A. and B. are deleted in their entirety and the following are substituted in their place:

“A. Advances with respect to the Loan are always discretionary with Crestmark. In connection with any request for an Advance, if the request is based upon specific Eligible Accounts, the Borrower must also furnish to Crestmark at the same time invoices, credit memos, purchase orders, evidence of delivery, proof of shipment, timesheets, a cash receipts journal or summary thereof, and any other documents Crestmark requests, in its sole discretion, with respect to the accounts that Borrower is tendering to Crestmark to support the Advance (“Account Documents”). At the request of Crestmark Borrower will provide a Borrowing Certificate in form approved by Crestmark before the Advance is made. Crestmark will endeavor to provide the requested funds by the end of the business day on the date that it receives the request so long as the complete package of information for the request has been received by 10:30 a.m. Eastern Time. All requests for funding will be subject to Crestmark’s then standard fees for electronic funds transfer, wire transfers and check services.

B. Borrower must instruct all Account Debtors to remit all collateral proceeds to the Lockbox Bank. At Crestmark’s request, all documents related to the accounts must be marked by Borrower to show assignment to Crestmark and the Borrower must notify each Account Debtor by mail, in accordance with a form approved by Crestmark that the account has been assigned to Crestmark and that all payments on the account whether made by mail or electronically or otherwise must be made payable to the Borrower at the address provided in the letter, which is the Lockbox Account. The address for payments will be the Lockbox Bank specified in the Schedule. All expenses for notification of each Account Debtor will be paid by the Borrower. All expenses plus any applicable administration fees of the Lockbox will be paid by Borrower. All accounts specifically submitted to Crestmark with Account Documents for which an Advance is made will be known as Crestmark Accounts (the “Crestmark Accounts”). Crestmark may at any time and from time to time, and at its sole discretion, notify any Account Debtor of Borrower or any third party payer to make payments directly to Crestmark. ”

a. Section 8 is deleted and the following is substituted in its place:

“8. MINIMUM BALANCE. Borrower agrees that it will maintain a minimum Loan balance in the amount shown on the Schedule for the period shown and Borrower understands that the Interest Rate and the Maintenance Fee will be calculated on the greater of the Minimum Loan Balance or the Actual Loan Balance.”

b. Section 13. is amended by the addition of subsection J. to provide as follows:

“J. That all Accounts assigned to Crestmark are bonafide accounts arising from the sale of inventory or providing services, and are not subject to offset or counterclaim and are free and clear of all encumbrances of any kind whatsoever.”

c. Section 15.G. is deleted in its entirety and the following is substituted in its place:

“G. Suffer or permit any judgment, lien, tax lien, decree or order not fully covered by insurance or cash reserve maintained by Crestmark to be entered against the Borrower or a Guarantor, or permit or suffer any warrant or attachment to be filed against Borrower, any Guarantor, or against any property or asset of Borrower or Guarantor.

“25. INDEMNIFICATION: Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds Crestmark and its executive committees, parent, affiliates, subsidiaries, agents, directors, officers, participants, employees, agents, and their successors and assigns (collectively the “Indemnified Parties”) harmless against any damages or claims arising from Crestmark collecting or attempting to collect any Accounts and from any and all costs, claims, expenses, actions and liabilities, including fees of attorneys and other professionals and experts, costs of suit and interest, arising out of any failure by Borrower or Borrower's documentation to comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations.

Should any excise, sales, documentary stamp, intangible, service or other tax be imposed by state, federal or local authorities with respect to any of the transactions hereunder in such form that Crestmark is required to withhold, collect or pay such taxes, Borrower agrees to disclose such requirement to Crestmark and to indemnify the Indemnified Parties with respect to such payments, and Crestmark shall be entitled to charge and collect such payments from Borrower's account. In addition, Borrower agrees that if any taxing authority, at any time hereafter, including after the termination of this Agreement, takes the position that stamp or other taxes are applicable to this Agreement, or any renewals or extensions thereof, or Crestmark make such determination, Crestmark will pay all such taxes, and any interest and penalties or other liabilities in connection therewith, and will collect such amounts from the Borrower. Crestmark expressly disclaims any obligation to Borrower with respect to state, local or Federal income taxation and the preparation of income tax reports or returns, except as agreed to between the parties herein. It is agreed that Crestmark shall not in any way be considered a “responsible party” in connection with the payment of any taxes on behalf of Borrower.

Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds Indemnified Parties harmless from any and all liability, claims and damages, including fees of attorneys (including in-house counsel for the Indemnified Parties) and other professionals and experts, costs of suit and interest which any of the Indemnified Parties may incur as a result of the failure of Borrower to pay any taxes due and payable to any taxing authority. Borrower does further agree to immediately notify Crestmark of any failure to pay federal, state or local taxes due in connection with any of its business enterprises. Borrower further agrees to provide to Crestmark true and accurate copies of any tax liens or warning notices received by Borrower in connection with its business enterprises whether related to this Agreement or not.

Borrower hereby releases, discharges and holds harmless Indemnified Parties from all liabilities, actions, suits, causes of action, costs, expenses, fines, penalties, claims, judgments and demands whatsoever which the Borrower or any other person or entity had or may have now or in the future against one or more of them under or arising out of this Agreement between Borrower and Crestmark, or any acts or omissions in connection herewith; provided, however, that nothing herein shall preclude the enforcement by Borrower and Crestmark of all rights and benefits conferred in this Agreement.

Borrower does hereby warrant that there has been no mortgage or loan broker involved in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, and Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from any and all liability, claims and damages, including fees of attorneys (including in-house counsel for Crestmark) and other professionals and experts, costs of suit and interest which Crestmark may incur as a result of any claim of compensation payable to any mortgage or loan broker in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

The indemnifications set forth herein shall survive the termination of this Agreement.”

h. By the addition of Section 26 to provide as follows:

26. TERM This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until demand, but if not sooner demanded then for three (3) years from the date hereof (the “Term”), and shall be automatically renewed for consecutive two (2) year terms unless terminated by written notice of either party sixty (60) days prior to the end of the initial Term or any renewal Term. In the event of termination by Borrower of this Agreement or repayment in full of the Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the Term or any renewal Term, Borrower shall pay to Crestmark, as an early termination fee: (i) an amount equal to three percent (3%) of the Maximum Facility if such repayment is during the initial year of the Term or renewal Term; two percent (2%) of the Maximum Facility if such repayment is during the second year of the Term or renewal Term; and one percent (1%) of the Maximum Facility if such repayment is during the final year of the Term; plus, in any event, any unpaid Loan Fees due under the remaining Term of the Agreement (the “Early Termination Fee”) . In the event that payment of the Indebtedness shall be accelerated for any reason whatsoever by Crestmark, the Early Termination Fee in effect as of the date of such acceleration shall be paid and such Early Termination Fee shall also be added to the outstanding balance of the Indebtedness in determining the debt for the purposes of any judgment of foreclosure of any loan documents given to secure the Indebtedness.

After termination Borrower shall continue to be liable to Crestmark for the full and prompt performance and payment of the full amount of all Indebtedness to Crestmark which for any reason remain, or otherwise are, then outstanding and unpaid, whether disputed or undisputed. Crestmark will continue to have a security interest in the Collateral of Borrower until any and all Indebtedness are paid in full. When Crestmark has received payment and performance in full of all Indebtedness and an acknowledgment from Borrower that it is no longer entitled to request any advances from Crestmark under this Agreement, Crestmark shall execute a termination of all security interests given by Borrower to Crestmark, upon the execution and delivery of general releases by Borrower, any guarantor or surety of Borrower's Indebtedness to Crestmark.”
