See attached.

Page - 31

REAFFIRMATION OF SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT

In satisfaction of the condition set forth in the above Forbearance and Reaffirmation Agreement (the “Agreement”), each of the undersigned (each, a “Junior Lender”), hereby: (i) ratifies and reaffirms his, her or its Subordination Agreement dated as of March 30, 2007 (each, a “Subordination Agreement”) between such Junior Lender and Fifth Third Bank, an Ohio banking corporation (“Fifth Third”), (ii) reaffirms the subordination of his, her or its right of payment under the applicable Junior Debt Documents to the prior payment in full of all Fifth Third Debt, (iii) acknowledges and agrees that no Junior Lender is released from his, her or its obligations and agreements under the respective Subordination Agreement by reason of the Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby and that each Junior Lender’s obligations under his, her or its respective Subordination Agreement extend, among other Obligations (as defined in the Fifth Third Loan Agreement) to the Fifth Third Loan Agreement and the other Fifth Third Documents as amended by, or amended and restated in connection with, the Agreement, and (iv) as a result of the continuance of the Existing Defaults (a) a payment blockage has been instituted and (b) otherwise Permitted Payments (as defined in each of the applicable Subordination Agreements) are no longer permitted to be made. Each Junior Lender acknowledges receipt of an executed copy of the Agreement. All references in the Subordination Agreements to the Fifth Third Loan Agreement shall be deemed to be references to the Fifth Third Loan Agreement as amended by the Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the applicable Subordination Agreement or Junior Debt Documents, each Junior Lender, as applicable, hereby acknowledges and agrees that, as of the Effective Date (as defined in the Agreement), (i) Annex I attached hereto and made a part hereof accurately sets forth all of the Junior Debt made by any Borrower in favor of such Junior Lender and (ii) except as described on Annex I, there are no instruments or documents that evidence any Indebtedness for borrowed money owing by any Borrower to such Junior Lender.

This Reaffirmation of Subordination Agreement shall not be construed, by implication or otherwise, as imposing any requirement that Fifth Third notify or seek the consent of any Junior Lender relative to any past or future extension of credit, or modification, extension or other action with respect thereto, in order for any such extension of credit or modification, extension or other action with respect thereto to be subject to the Subordination Agreements, it being expressly acknowledged and reaffirmed that each Junior Lender has under his, her or its Subordination Agreement consented, among others things, to modifications, extensions and other actions with respect thereto without any notice thereof or further consent thereto. This Reaffirmation of Subordination Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
