NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the terms and
conditions contained in the Loan Agreement and this Amendment, and of any loans
or extensions of credit or other financial accommodations heretofore, now or
hereafter made to or for the benefit of the Borrower by Bank, the Borrower and

that no such Line of Credit Advance will be made in any amount which, after
giving effect to such Line of Credit Advance, would cause Total Revolving
Outstandings to exceed the Revolving Loan Commitment. ("Line of Credit"). The
Line of Credit Advances shall be evidenced by and repayable in accordance with
the terms of Borrower's promissory note ("Line of Credit Note"), the form of
which is attached as Exhibit 2C. Bank, in its sole and absolute discretion, may
elect to make Line of Credit Advances to Borrower in excess of the amounts

Advances shall also be governed by the terms hereof. Bank shall also have the
option, in its sole discretion and without any obligation to do so, to extend
the Termination Date for the making of Line of Credit Advances. In the event
that Bank elects to extend such Termination Date, Bank shall give notice to
Borrower pursuant to Section 10.19.
4. Subsection 2.1.2 of the Loan Agreement, Letters of Credit, shall be
amended to read in full as follows:

letters of credit (collectively "Letters" and individually, a "Letter") for the
account of Borrower for the benefit of one or more beneficiaries to be named by
Borrower (the "Beneficiary"), whether one or more, in form and substance

in any amount which, after giving effect to such issuance, would cause (a) Total
Revolving Outstandings to exceed the Revolving Loan Commitment, or (b) the
Letter of Credit Usage to exceed $500,000. If Bank has received documents
purporting to draw under a Letter that Bank believes conform to the requirements
of the Letter, or if Bank has decided that it will comply with Borrower's
written or oral request of authorization to pay a drawing on any Letter that
Bank does not believe conforms to the requirements of the Letter, Bank will
notify Borrower of that fact. Borrower shall reimburse Bank by 9:30 a.m.
(mountain time) on the day on which such drawing is to be paid in an amount
equal to the amount of such drawing. Any amount by which Borrower has failed to
reimburse Bank for the full amount of such drawing by 10:00 a.m. on the date on
which such drawing is to be paid ("Unpaid Drawing"), may be paid by an Bank
initiated Line of Credit Advance. The obligation of Borrower to reimburse Bank
for any amount drawn on any Letter, and the obligation of Borrower to repay Bank
for any Line of Credit Advance made to fund such reimbursement, shall be
absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, shall continue for so long as any
Letter is outstanding notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, and
shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement,
notwithstanding any of the following:
(a) Any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter;
(b) The existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other
right which Borrower may have or claim at any time
against any beneficiary, transferee or holder of any
Letter (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary,
transferee or holder may be acting), Bank or any
other Person, whether in connection with a Letter,
this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby,
or any unrelated transaction; or
(c) Any statement or any other document presented under
any Letter proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid
or insufficient in any respect or any statement
therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect
whatever.
None of Bank or any of the officers, directors or employees
of either of them shall be liable or responsible for, and the
obligations of Borrower to Bank shall not be impaired by:
(d) The use which may be made of any Letter or for any
acts or omissions of any beneficiary, transferee or
holder thereof in connection therewith;
(e) The validity, sufficiency or genuineness of
documents, or of any endorsements thereon, even if
such documents or endorsements should in fact prove
to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient,
fraudulent or forged;
(f) The acceptance by Bank of documents that appear on
their face to be in order, without responsibility for
further investigation, regardless of any notice or
information to the contrary; or
(g) Any other action of Bank in making or failing to make
payment under any Letter if in good faith and in
conformity with applicable U.S. or foreign laws,
regulations or customs.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall have a claim against Bank,
and Bank shall be liable to Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of
any direct, as opposed to consequential, damages suffered by Borrower which
Borrower proves were caused by Bank's willful misconduct or gross negligence in
determining whether documents presented under any Letter comply with the terms
thereof.

hereunder; and (b) a fee in connection with the issuance and in connection with
the renewal of each Letter, in the amount of Three and One Half percent (3.5%)
of the face amount of each such Letter, payable in advance upon the issuance and
upon the renewal of each such Letter. Each of the foregoing fees shall be fully
earned on the date it becomes payable and shall be paid by a Bank initiated
Advance pursuant to Section 2.1, without prior demand by Bank.

shall no longer be applicable and is deleted.

shall be amended to read in full as follows:
