which was amended pursuant to Amendment No. 1 to Third Amended
and Restated Loan Agreement dated as of May 27, 1998 (as so
amended, the "Original Loan Agreement"; the Original Loan
Agreement, as amended hereby, and as it may hereafter be further
amended, modified or supplemented, is hereinafter referred as the

(D) Simultaneously with the execution and delivery hereof,
each of The First National Bank of Chicago and NationsBank, N.A.

name on its signature page hereto and the Borrower desires to
accept the Total Commitment of each New Bank and to cause the New
Banks to be added as a "Bank" to the Original Loan Agreement as
amended hereby, and the Agent and the Banks are agreeable to the
addition of the New Banks;
(E) Certain of the Existing Banks desire to increase their
respective Total Commitment to the amount set forth opposite its
name on its signature page hereto and the Borrower desires to
accept such increased Total Commitment;
(F) Certain of the Existing Banks desire to reallocate

(G) All capitalized terms used herein which are not other
wise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed

amount shall supersede and be deemed to amend the amount of its

the Borrower, the Banks and the Agent that (i) it will abide by
the terms of the Original Loan Agreement as amended hereby, and
(ii) the Loan Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the
benefit of, and be enforceable by and against it.
Section 1.4 Adjustment of Outstanding Loans. If any
Loans are outstanding under the Original Loan Agreement on the
date hereof, the Banks shall on the date hereof, at the direction
of the Agent, make appropriate adjustments among themselves in
order to insure that the amount (and type) of the Loans
outstanding to the Borrower from each Bank under the Loan
Agreement (as of the date hereof) are proportionate to the
aggregate amount of all of the Total Commitments, after giving
effect to the additional Total Commitment of the New Banks, the
