The Consent Agreement further extends, until July 15, 2006, the date by which the Company is required to deliver to the Lenders the Company’s audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005 and other related deliveries, which are required to be delivered pursuant to the terms of the DIP Facility. In addition, the Consent Agreement also further extends, until the earlier of (a) July 15, 2006 and (b) the occurrence of any new default or event of default under the DIP Facility, the forbearance period related to the Company’s previously disclosed defaults under the DIP Facility with respect to certain financial covenants.

     Except with respect to the extension of the forbearance discussed above, the Consent Agreement does not affect the Company’s previously disclosed defaults under the DIP Facility, which defaults remain outstanding, and all other terms and conditions of the DIP Facility, as amended, remain in full force and effect.
