Attention: Chief Financial Officer
Dear Sirs:
Reference is made to the Loan Agreements (as amended, the

("MetLife") and Metropolitan Insurance and Annuity Company
("MIAC"), respectively, and the Company's 8.15% Notes due
October 22, 1998 issued thereunder (as amended, the
"Notes"). Unless otherwise defined, capitalized terms used
herein shall have the meanings specified in the Notes.
The Company has requested in its letters dated October 14
and 17, 1996, the MetLife and MIAC agree to waive, for the
fiscal quarter ended September 30, 1996, compliance with
Section 4.06 of the Notes.
As holders of the Notes, as parties to the respective
Agreements and subject to the Company's agreement herewith
as evidenced by its signature at the foot hereof, MetLife
and MIAC hereby agree to waive any Event of Default
resulting from noncompliance with Section 4.06 of the Notes
for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 1996.
It is understood that, notwithstanding the waiver in the
previous paragraph, the provisions of Section 4.06 of the
Notes shall once again apply after September 30, 1996. It
is further understood that, if any fees or other
consideration shall be received by any senior lender of the
Company, including but not limited to Prudential Capital
Group, in connection with any default or event of default
resulting from noncompliance with any fixed charge ratio or
similar requirement for the fiscal quarter ended September
30, 1996, MetLife, MIAC and any other holder of the Notes
shall receive a fee in an amount equal to that received by
such senior lender.
This agreement shall not become effective unless and until
all senior lenders of the Company have agreed in writing to
waive any default or event of default resulting from
noncompliance with any fixed charge ratio or similar
requirement for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 1996,
and the Company has notified MetLife and MIAC in writing of
that fact.
If the Company is in agreement with the foregoing, please
evidence the Company's acceptance by signing the enclosed
counterpart hereof and returning the same to MetLife,
whereupon this letter will become a binding agreement among
the Company, MetLife and MIAC as of the date hereof.
