         In consideration of the premises and of the mutual agreements herein

Article III hereof, the Loan Agreement shall be amended as follows:

         1.1 Section 1.1 is amended as follows:

         (a) The definitions of "FACILITY TERMINATION DATE" and "MATURITY DATE"
are restated as follows:

                  "FACILITY TERMINATION DATE" means the earlier to occur of (a)
         February 28, 2001 or (b) the date on which the Revolving Credit
         Commitments are terminated pursuant to Article VIII.

                  "MATURITY DATE" means the earlier to occur of (a) the date two
         years after the Facility Termination Date or (b) the date on which the
         maturity of the Term Loans are accelerated pursuant to Article VIII.

         (b) The definition of "INTEREST PERIOD" is amended by restating clause

         Loan that would otherwise extend beyond (A) with respect to any Term
         Loan, the Maturity Date, shall end on the Maturity Date or (B) with
         respect to any other Loan, the Facility Termination Date, may be
         elected but shall end on the Facility Termination Date (and such Loan
         shall be due and payable on the Facility Termination Date and any
         amounts due under Section 3.4 shall be payable) unless the Facility
         Termination Date is extended on or before the last day of such Interest
         Period to a date beyond the end of such Interest Period; and
