Agreement hereby is deleted, and the following is substituted therefor:
(a) "Applicable Margin" means, from and after the Third
Amendment Effective Date (including for Loans outstanding on such
date): (i) for any Term Loan which is a Base Rate Loan, 1.75%; (ii) for
any Term Loan which is a Euro-Dollar Loan, 3.75%; (iii) (A) until the
first Performance Pricing
Determination Date, for any Revolver Loan which is a Base Rate Loan,

In determining interest for purposes of this Section 2.05 and
fees pursuant to Section 2.06(a) (except for the period from the Third

Determination Date), the Borrower and the Banks shall refer to the
Borrower's most recent consolidated quarterly and annual (as the case
may be) financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or
(b), as the case may be. If such financial statements require a change
in interest pursuant to this Section 2.05 or fees pursuant to Section
2.06(a), the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent, along with such
financial statements, a notice to that effect, which notice shall set
forth in reasonable detail the calculations establishing the required
change. The date which is 10 Domestic Business Days after receipt by
the Agent of such financial statements and notice, commencing with the
financial statements for the third Fiscal Quarter of the 2002 Fiscal
Year, is the "Performance Pricing Determination Date." Any such
required change in interest and fees shall become effective on such
Performance Pricing Determination Date, and shall be in effect until
the next Performance Pricing Determination Date, provided, however,
that: (i) for Euro-Dollar Loans, changes in interest shall only be
effective for Interest Periods commencing on or after the Performance
Pricing Determination Date; and (ii) no interest or fees shall be
decreased pursuant to this Section 2.05 or Section 2.06(a) if, on the
Performance Pricing Determination Date, (A) an Event of Default is in
existence, or (B) a Default is in existence which on such date is not
an Event of Default but which becomes an Event of Default; provided,
however, that if an Event of Default exists on the Performance Pricing
Determination Date, or a Default exists and subsequently becomes an
Event of Default, any such decrease shall take effect upon the cure of
any such Event of Default.
4. Amendment of Section 2.06(a). Section 2.06(a) of the Credit
Agreement hereby is deleted, and the following is substituted therefor:
(a) The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the ratable
account of each Bank, a commitment fee, which shall accrue from and
including the Third Amendment Effective Date to but excluding the
Termination Date and shall be payable on each April 1, July 1, October
1 and January 1 and on the Termination Date, commencing April 1, 2002,
for the quarterly period ending immediately prior to such date (except
that the payment on April 1, 2002 shall be for the period from the
Third Amendment Effective Date through March 31, 2002 and the Borrower
also shall pay on such date the commitment fee payable under the Credit
Agreement for the period from January 1, 2002 through the Third
Amendment Effective

Date, 0.625%, and (B) thereafter, with respect to each Performance
Pricing Determination Date, the percentage determined as of the end of
the Fiscal Quarter or Fiscal Year just ended by reference to the
percentage shown in the following schedule, depending on the level of
the Total Debt to Cash Flow Ratio as of the end of such Fiscal Quarter
or Fiscal Year, as determined pursuant hereto; provided, however, that

(whether or not any Term Loans remain outstanding) the maximum Total
Debt to Cash Flow Ratio permitted by Section 5.06 is equal to or
greater than 4.50 to 1.00, the commitment fee shall not go below Level
4 below (but the Borrower may voluntarily agree at any time when no
Term Loans remain outstanding to reduce the maximum Total Debt to Cash
Flow Ratio permitted by Section 5.06 below 4.50 to 1.0, and in such
event this proviso shall no longer be effective).
