In consideration of the foregoing, the mutual agreements and covenants

be deleted in its entirety, effective as of September 30, 1998.

as previously amended, shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the

consolidated basis with its subsidiaries, Adjusted Net Worth of not less than
$20,000,000."
2. Conditions Precedent. The effectiveness of the other terms and
conditions contained herein shall be subject to:
(a) the receipt by Lender of an original of this Amendment, duly
authorized, executed and delivered by Borrower and consented and agreed to by
the other Obligors; and
(b) after giving effect to the amendments set forth in Section 1
hereof, no Event of Default shall exist or have occurred and be continuing, and
no event or condition, which with the giving of notice or passage of time, or
both, would constitute an Event of Default, shall exist or have occurred and be
continuing.

writing signed by the party against whom such modification or waiver is sought
to be enforced. Except as specifically modified pursuant hereto, the Loan
Agreement and the other Financing Agreements are hereby ratified, restated and
confirmed by the parties hereto as of the effective date hereof. To the extent
of conflict between the terms of this Amendment, the Loan Agreement and the
other Financing Agreements, the terms of this Amendment shall control.

hereunder of each of the parties hereto shall be governed by and interpreted and
