SECTION 4. Exclusion of TaxLLC from Pledged Collateral. It is
hereby acknowledged and agreed by the parties hereto that TaxLLC (as defined in

Amendment, all of the "Collateral" described therein does and shall continue to
secure the payment of all Obligations.

Fundamental Documents.

no obligation to enter into this Amendment. The Agent and the Required Lenders
entering into this Amendment shall not be deemed to limit or hinder any rights
of the Agent or any Lender under the Credit Agreement, nor shall it be deemed to

executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in
separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be
deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute but
