contained herein and for other valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as
follows:
1. The maturity of the Notes is hereby extended to a date
which shall not exceed January 31, 2002. The liens, security interests and
other rights evidenced by the Deeds of Trust and other Loan Documents are
hereby renewed and extended to secure payment of the Notes as extended hereby.

the First Amendment to DOT and the replacement thereof with Exhibit "B" to

is the sole legal and beneficial owner of the Mortgaged Property; (b)
Borrower is duly organized and legally existing under the General Corporation
Law of the State of Delaware; (c) the execution and delivery of, and

or the powers of Borrower's Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws; (d) this
Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Borrower

this Agreement by Borrower do not contravene, result in a breach of or
constitute a default under any deed of trust, loan agreement, indenture or
other contract, agreement or undertaking to which Borrower is a party or by
which Borrower or any of its properties may be bound (nor would such
execution and delivery constitute such a default with the passage of time or
the giving of notice or both) and do not violate or contravene any law,
order, decree, rule or regulation to which Borrower is subject; and (f) to
the best of Borrower's knowledge there exists no uncured default under the
Notes, the Deed of Trust or any other Loan Document. Borrower agrees to
indemnify and hold Lender harmless against any loss, claim, damage, liability
or expense (including without limitation attorneys' fees) incurred as a
result of any representation or warranty made by it herein proving to be
untrue in any respect.
4. Borrower, upon request from Majority Lenders, agrees to
execute such other and further documents as may be reasonably necessary or
appropriate to consummate the transactions contemplated herein or to perfect
the liens and security interests intended to secure the payment of the loan
evidenced by the Notes.
5. If Borrower shall fail to keep or perform any of the
covenants or agreements contained herein or if any statement, representation
or warranty contained herein is false, misleading or erroneous in any
material respect, Borrower shall be deemed to be in default under the Deed of
Trust and Lenders shall be entitled at their option to exercise any and all
of the rights and remedies granted pursuant to the Deed of Trust or any other
Loan Document or to which Lenders may otherwise be entitled, whether at law
or in equity.
6. Except as provided herein, the terms and provisions of the
Deed of Trust shall remain unchanged and shall remain in full force and
effect. Any modIfication herein of the Deed of Trust shall in no way affect
the security of the Deed of Trust for the payment of the Notes. The Deed of
Trust as modIfied and amended hereby is hereby ratIfied and confirmed in all
respects. All liens, security interests, mortgages and assignments granted or
created by or existing under the Deed of Trust remain unchanged and continue,
unabated, in full force and effect, to secure Borrower's obligation to repay
the Notes.
7. Borrower hereby acknowledges that the liens, security
interests and assignments created and evidenced by the Deed of Trust are
valid and subsisting and further acknowledges and agrees that there are no
offsets, claims or defenses to the Notes or the Deed of Trust or any other
Loan Documents.
8. Borrower specifically acknowledges that any future grace or
forgiveness of default by Lenders shall not constitute a waiver or
diminishment of any right of
Lenders with respect to any future default of Borrower, whether or not
similar to any default with respect to which Lenders have in the past chosen,
or may in the future choose, not to exercise all of the rights and remedies
granted to them under the Notes, the Deed of Trust and the other Loan
Documents.
9. This Agreement supersedes and merges all prior and
contemporaneous promises, representations and agreements. No modIfication of

any waiver of rights under any of the foregoing, shall be effective unless
made by supplemental agreement, in writing, executed Borrower and either
Majority Lenders or Lenders, as applicable. Majority Lenders and Borrower
further agree that this Agreement may not in any way be explained or
supplemented by a prior, existing or future course of dealings between the
parties or by any prior, existing, or future performance between the parties
pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise.
10. Any notice or communication required or permitted hereunder
shall be given as provided in the Deed of Trust.
11. Borrower acknowledges that the execution of this Agreement
by Majority Lenders is not intended nor shall it be construed as (i) an
actual or implied waiver of any default under the Notes, the Deed of Trust or
any other Loan Document or (ii) an actual or implied waiver of any condition
or obligation imposed upon Borrower pursuant to the Notes, the Deed of Trust
or any other Loan Document, except to the extent expressly set forth herein.
12. Contemporaneously with the execution and delivery hereof,
Borrower shall pay, or cause to be paid, all costs and expenses incident to
the preparation hereof and the consummation of the transactions specified
herein, including without limitation, recording fees and fees and expenses of
legal counsel to Majority Lenders.
13. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts with the same effect as if all parties hereto had signed the
same document. All such counterparts shall be construed together and shall
constitute one instrument, but in making proof hereof it shall only be
necessary to produce one such counterpart.
14. If any covenant, condition, or provision herein contained
is held to be invalid by final judgment of any court of competent
jurisdiction, the invalidity of such covenant, condition, or provision shall
not in any way affect any other covenant, condition or provision herein
contained.
15. It is expressly agreed by the parties hereto that time is
of the essence with respect to this Agreement.
16. The parties acknowledge and confirm that each of their
respective attorneys have participated jointly in the review and revision of
this Agreement and that it has not been written solely by counsel for one
party. The parties hereto therefore stipulate and agree that the rule of
construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to or may be resolved
against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of
this Agreement to favor either party against the other.

hereunder shall be governed for all purposes by the law of the State of Texas
and the law of the United States applicable to transactions within said State.
