SECOND AMENDMENT TO REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT
THIS SECOND AMENDMENT TO REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT (this "Amendment") is
entered into as of February 20, 1998 between UNITED DENTAL CARE, INC., a
Delaware corporation ("Borrower"), each lender which is a signatory to this
Amendment (collectively, the "Lenders"), and NATIONSBANK OF TEXAS, N.A., a
national banking association, as agent for Lenders ("Agent").
Borrower, Agent, and Lenders are parties to the Revolving Credit Agreement
(as modified, amended, renewed, and extended from time-to-time, the "Credit
