Agreement is, effective as of the date hereof and subject to the satisfaction of
the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2 below, hereby amended as
follows:
(a) Section 2.03(a) is hereby amended by deleting all of the
first proviso through the number "$50,000,000." and substituting therefor a new
proviso to read as follows:
"PROVIDED that (x) such Competitive Bid Borrowing shall not
exceed an amount equal to the aggregate Unused Working Capital
Commitments of the Lenders in effect immediately prior to
giving effect to such Competitive Bid Borrowing LESS (I) the
Documentary L/C Amount at such time and (II) the aggregate
amount of outstanding commercial paper permitted pursuant to
Section 5.02(b)(i)(F) and (y) following the making of each
Competitive Bid Borrowing, the aggregate amount of the
Competitive Bid Advances of all Lenders then outstanding plus
the aggregate amount of outstanding commercial paper permitted
pursuant to Section 5.02(b)(i)(F) shall not exceed
$1,000,000,000.".
(b) Section 2.03(a)(ii) is hereby amended by deleting the
phrase ", subject to the proviso to the first sentence of this Section

(c) Section 2.03 is hereby further amended by adding,
immediately following each occurrence of the phrase "Competitive Bid Note" the
phrase ", if any,".
(d) Section 2.08(a) is amended by deleting the phrase "and,
thereafter, quarterly on the last Business Day of each March, June, September
and December, and on the Termination Date;" occurring immediately before the
first proviso, and substituting therefor the following:
"and thereafter calculated for the quarterly period ending on
the last Business
2
Day of each March, June, September and December and payable in
arrears on the fifth Business Day following each such period,
and payable in arrears on the Termination Date;".
(e) Section 2.08(b) is amended in full to read as
follows:
"(b) UTILIZATION FEE. During each Non-Investment
Grade Period, for each day on which the sum of the aggregate
outstanding Advances PLUS the aggregate Available Amount of
outstanding Letters of Credit PLUS the aggregate Available
Amount of outstanding Documentary L/Cs PLUS the aggregate
amount of outstanding commercial paper permitted pursuant to
Section 5.02(b)(i)(F) exceeds 50% of the sum of (i) the Term
Commitments on such day PLUS (ii) the Working Capital
Commitments on such day, the Borrower shall pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender (other
than the Designated Bidders) a utilization fee on the sum of
such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the aggregate amount of the
Advances outstanding PLUS such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the
aggregate Available Amount of all outstanding Standby Letters
of Credit at the rate of 0.25% per annum, payable in arrears
on March 31, 1995, and thereafter calculated for the quarterly
period ending on the last Business Day of each March, June,
September and December and payable in arrears on the fifth
Business Day following each such period, and payable in
arrears on the Termination Date; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any
utilization fee accrued with respect to any Defaulting
Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Advances during the period
prior to the time such Lender became a Defaulting Lender and
unpaid at such time shall not be payable by the Borrower so
long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender except to the
extent that such utilization fee shall otherwise have been due
and payable by the Borrower prior to such time; and PROVIDED
FURTHER that no utilization fee shall accrue with respect to
any Defaulting Lenders' Pro Rata Share of the Advances of so
long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender."
(f) Section 2.14(f)(i) is amended by deleting from the end
thereof the phrase "in each case payable in arrears quarterly on the last
Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing March 31,
1995, and on the Termination Date." and substituting for such phrase the
following:
"payable in arrears on March 31, 1995, and thereafter
calculated for the quarterly period ending on the last
Business Day of each March, June, September and December and
payable in arrears on the fifth Business Day following each
such period, and payable in arrears on the Termination Date;".
(g) Article II is further amended by adding thereto a
new Section 2.17, to read as follows:
"SECTION 2.17. EVIDENCE OF DEBT. (a) Each Lender
shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts
evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each
Advance owing to such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of
principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time
hereunder. The Borrower agrees that upon notice by any Lender to the Borrower
(with a copy of such notice to the Administrative Agent) to the effect that a
promissory note or other evidence of indebtedness is required or appropriate in
order for such Lender to evidence (whether for purposes of pledge, enforcement
or otherwise) the Advances owing to, or to be made by, such Lender, the Borrower
shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a Note, payable to the order
of such Lender in a principal amount equal to the Commitment of
3
such Lender; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Agreement, the execution and delivery of such Note shall not
be a condition precedent to the making of any Advance under this Agreement.
(b) The Register maintained by the Administrative
Agent pursuant to Section 8.07 shall include a control account, and a subsidiary
account for each Lender, in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded
(i) the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder, the Type of Advances
comprising such Borrowing and, if appropriate, the Interest Period applicable
thereto, (ii) the terms of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and
accepted by it, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or
to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder, and (iv)
the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower
hereunder and each Lender's share thereof.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Agreement, entries made in good faith by the Administrative
Agent in the Register pursuant to subsection (b) above, and by each Lender in
its account or accounts pursuant to subsection (a) above, shall be prima facie
evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become
due and payable from the Borrower to, in the case of the Register, each Lender
and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender, under this Agreement,
absent manifest error; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the failure of the Administrative
Agent or such Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is
incorrect, in the Register or such account or accounts shall not limit or
otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement.".
(h) Section 3.02(a)(iii) is hereby amended by
deleting the semicolon at the end thereof and substituting therefor the
following:
"and LESS the aggregate amount of outstanding commercial paper
permitted pursuant to Section 5.02(b)(i)(F);".
(i) Section 3.03(d) is hereby amended by deleting the period
at the end thereof and substituting therefor the following:
"and LESS the aggregate amount of outstanding commercial paper
permitted pursuant to Section 5.02(b)(i)(F).".
(j) Section 5.02(b)(i) is hereby amended by (x) deleting the
word "and" at the end of clause (E) thereof and (y) adding to the end
thereof new subsections (F) and (G) to read as follows:
"(F) unsecured Debt consisting of commercial paper
issued in the ordinary course of business and aggregating at
any time outstanding not more than the lesser of $400,000,000
and the amount of Unused Working Capital Commitments of the
Working Capital Lenders at such time; and
(G) any Debt extending the maturity of, or refunding
or refinancing, in whole or in part, (I) any Debt permitted
pursuant to subsection (C), (D) or (E) of this Section
5.02(b)(i) or (II) any extension, refunding or refinancing of
such Debt permitted pursuant to this subsection (G); PROVIDED
that the terms (including, without limitation, principal
amount, interest rate, limitations on liens, if any and
subordination terms, if any) taken as a whole of any such
extending, refunding or refinancing Debt, and of any agreement
entered into and of any instrument issued in connection
therewith, are no less favorable to the
4
Loan Parties or the Lender Parties, as determined by the
Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion, than the
terms governing the Debt so extended, refunded or refinanced
(PROVIDED that no unsecured Debt shall be refunded or
refinanced by secured Debt); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any such
refunding or refinancing Debt may provide for an earlier
maturity than the Debt being so refunded or refinanced so long
as such earlier maturity is no earlier than six months after
the Termination Date; PROVIDED FURTHER that the principal
amount of such Debt permitted pursuant to this Section
5.02(b)(i)(G) shall not be increased above the principal
amount of Debt outstanding immediately prior to such
extension, refunding or refinancing, and the direct and
contingent obligors therefor shall not be changed, as a result
of or in connection with such extension, refunding or
refinancing; and".
(k) Section 5.02(b)(iii)(D) is amended by deleting the phrase
"any Surviving Debt;" immediately before the first proviso and
substituting for such phrase the following:
"(I) any Surviving Debt or (II) any extension, refunding or
refinancing of such Surviving Debt which extension, refunding
or refinancing was effected in accordance with this subsection
(D);".
(l) Section 8.07(e) is amended by deleting the third and
fourth sentences thereof in full.
SECTION 2. CONDITIONS OF EFFECTIVENESS. This Amendment shall
become effective as of the date first above written when, and only when, on or

Borrower shall agree), the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts

the consents attached hereto executed by each Guarantor and each Pledgor, as
applicable. This Amendment is subject to the provisions of Section 8.01 of the
Credit Agreement.

THE LOAN DOCUMENTS. (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
any outstanding 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.

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.
(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.
