WAIVER AND AMENDMENT
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We refer to the First Amended and Restated Financing Agreement between The CIT
Group/Business Credit ("Lender") and Pharmaceutical Formulations, Inc. and
Konsyl Pharmaceuticals, Inc., jointly and severally as borrower (collectively
herein referred to herein as "you" or "your") dated May 15, 2003, as
supplemented and amended from time to time (the "Financing Agreement").
Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the same
meanings given them in the Financing Agreement.
You have advised us that you are, or may be, in violation of the financial
covenants set forth in Section 7.10, Paragraphs (c), (d) and (e) of the
Financing Agreement for the fiscal period ended July 3, 2004.
This letter is to confirm our agreement that, solely with respect to said fiscal
period the foregoing violations and/or breaches of the Financing Agreement shall
not be deemed to be Defaults and/or Events of Default under the Financing
Agreement. On and after the date hereof you shall be in compliance with all of
the terms and provisions of the Financing Agreement, as amended hereby
(including, without limitation, the financial covenants referred to above).
In addition, this is to confirm that pursuant to mutual consent and
understanding, effective as of even date herewith (except with respect to

referred to as "Companies") before all (i) interest and tax
obligations, (ii) depreciation and (iii) amortization for said period,
all determined in accordance with GAAP on a consistent basis with the
latest audited financial statements of the Companies, but excluding
the effect of extraordinary and/or non-reoccurring gains or losses for
such period."
"FIXED CHARGE COVERAGE RATIO shall mean, for the relevant period,
the ratio determined by dividing the sum of EBITDA and cash infusions
from ICC Industries Inc. ("ICC") by the sum of (a) all interest
obligations paid or due, (b) the amount of principal repaid or
scheduled to be repaid on the Term Loan and Subordinated Debt, (c)
Capital Expenditures actually incurred, and (d) all federal, state and
local income tax expenses due and payable."

In consideration of the foregoing waivers and amendments you hereby agree to
comply with the Condition Subsequent (as hereinafter defined) to our

to us by no later than September 20, 2004 of an amendment to the Financing
Agreement amending Section 7.10 thereof to add an EBITDA covenant on a
consolidated, rolling three-month basis for Konsyl Pharmaceuticals, Inc and
Pharmaceutical Formulations, Inc., in form and substance and on terms and
conditions satisfactory to us. The failure by you to fulfill the Condition

under Section 10.1 of the Financing Agreement and we may exercise immediately
any and all rights and remedies granted to us under the Financing Agreement.
In consideration of (i) our execution of this Amendment Letter you agree to pay
us an Accommodation Fee of $30,000.00 and (ii) the preparation of this agreement

We reserve all our rights and remedies under the Financing Agreement which we
may exercise at any time against you and any guarantors or pledgors, including
without limitation the rights to terminate the Financing Agreement, demand
payment of all of your Obligations, commence legal action to enforce collection
thereof, and realize upon your Accounts and/or all other Collateral pledged to
us under or in connection with the Financing Agreement. Nothing contained herein
shall be construed as a waiver of our rights to exercise at any time any other
right or remedy available to us under the Financing Agreement, the guaranties or
applicable law.
Except as set forth herein, no other waiver of, or change in, any of the terms,
provisions or conditions of the Financing Agreement is intended or implied. This
agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other existing Defaults or Events
of Default under the Financing Agreement (whether or not we have knowledge
thereof), and shall not constitute a waiver of any future Defaults or Events of
Default whatsoever. If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding of
our agreement, please so indicate by signing and returning to us the enclosed
copy of this letter by no later than August 23, 2004.
In addition, we have asked the Guarantor to sign below to confirm that its
guarantee shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding this agreement
and the transactions contemplated hereby, and that the foregoing waivers shall
not affect, modify or diminish the Guarantor's Obligations under any instruments
of Guaranty and/or any related pledge security agreements executed in favor of
CIT.
