PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS:
(1) The Borrower, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent have entered
into a Credit Agreement dated as of September 6, 2000, as amended by
Amendment No. 1 and Waiver to the Credit Agreement dated as of January 26,
2001 and Amendment No. 2 dated as of April 2, 2001 (such agreement as so

this Amendment have the same meanings as specified in the Credit Agreement.
(2) The Borrower and the Lenders have agreed to amend the Credit
Agreement as hereinafter set forth.
SECTION 1. Amendments to Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement is,
effective as of the date hereof and subject to the satisfaction of the
conditions precedent set forth in Section 2, hereby amended as follows:
(a) Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is amended by inserting
the following definition:
"Post-Closing Mortgages" has the meaning specified in
Section 5.01(x)(i)."
(b) Section 5.01(x)(i) of the Credit Agreement is amended by:
(i) deleting the phrase "No later than August 31, 2001,
furnish to the Administrative Agent deeds of trust, trust
deeds and mortgages in substantially the form of Exhibit F
and covering the all fee simple properties of the Borrower
and its Subsidiaries listed on Schedule 5.01(x)(i), duly
executed by the Borrower" at the beginning thereof and
substituting for such words the following:
"(i) As of August 31, 2001, commence preparation of deeds of
trust, trust deeds and mortgages in substantially the form
of Exhibit F and covering all the fee simple properties of
the Borrower and its Subsidiaries listed on Schedule
5.01(x)(i) (the "Post-Closing Mortgages"); (ii) deliver to
the Administrative Agent
2
no less frequently than bi-weekly those Post-Closing
Mortgages, that are at that time completed and duly executed
by the Borrower, together with a status report with respect
to the preparation and completion of the Post-Closing
Mortgages; and (iii) deliver to the Administrative Agent no
later than November 15, 2001 all of the Post-Closing
Mortgages not previously delivered to the Administrative
Agent";
(ii) deleting the proviso at the end thereof and
substituting for such proviso the following:
"provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be required
to comply with the requirements of clauses (A), (B) and (D)
of this Section 5.01(x)(i) unless requested to do so by the
Administrative Agent in conjunction with or subsequent to
the filing and recordation of the Post-Closing Mortgages
pursuant to this Section 5.01(x); provided, further,
however, that the Administrative Agent shall commence
filing and recordation of the Post-Closing Mortgages on
November 30, 2001 unless the Borrower (1) obtains and
accepts one or more financing commitments on or before
November 30, 2001 for the refinancing and payment in full of
the Facilities on or prior to December 31, 2001, or (2)
enters into a definitive agreement on or before November 30,
2001 for a business transaction that would result in the
prepayment in full of the Facilities on or prior to December
31, 2001, in each case, in form and substance, and from
parties, reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent."
SECTION 2. Conditions of Effectiveness. This Amendment shall become
effective as of the date first above written when, and only when, the
Administrative Agent shall have received (i) counterparts of this Amendment
executed by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or, as to any of the
Lenders, advice satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that such Lender has
executed this Amendment, (ii) the consent attached hereto executed by each of
the parties thereto and (iii) an amendment fee equal to 0.125% of the
Commitment of each Lender party hereto. The effectiveness of this Amendment
is conditioned on the accuracy of the factual matters described herein. This
Amendment is subject to the provisions of Section 8.01 of the Credit
Agreement.
SECTION 3. Reference to and Effect on the Credit Agreement and the
Notes. (a) On and after the effectiveness of this Amendment, each reference
in the Credit Agreement to "this Agreement", "hereunder", "hereof" or words
of like import referring to the Credit Agreement, and each reference in the
Notes and each of the other Loan Documents to "the Credit Agreement",
"thereunder", "thereof" or words of like import referring to the Credit
Agreement, shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement, as amended
by this Amendment.
(b) The Credit Agreement, the Notes and each of the other Loan
Documents, as specifically amended by this Amendment, are and shall continue
to be in full force and effect and are hereby in all respects ratified and
confirmed. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral
Documents and all of the Collateral described therein do and shall continue
to secure the payment of all Obligations of the Loan Parties under the Loan
Documents, in each case as amended by this Amendment.
3
(c) The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment
shall not, except as expressly provided herein, operate as a waiver of any
right, power or remedy of any Lender or the Administrative Agent under any of
the Loan Documents, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of any of the
Loan Documents.
SECTION 4.Costs and Expenses . The Borrower agrees to pay on demand all
costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent in connection with the
preparation, execution, delivery and administration, modification and
amendment of this Amendment and the other instruments and documents to be
delivered hereunder (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and
expenses of counsel for the Administrative Agent) in accordance with the
terms of Section 8.04 of the Credit Agreement.
SECTION 5.Execution in Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in
any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate
counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an
original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the
same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to
this Amendment by telecopier shall be effective as delivery of a manually
executed counterpart of this Amendment.
SECTION 6.Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by, and
construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Amendment to be
executed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized, as of the
date first above written.
