NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto do
hereby agree, each with the other, as follows:
1. Unless otherwise defined herein or unless the context shall
expressly indicate otherwise, all capitalized terms which are used herein shall

2. Schedule I of the Agreement is hereby amended to amend and
restate the definition of "Loan Termination Date" in its entirety as follows:
"Loan Termination Date" means, (i) with respect to the

3. As conditions to the effectiveness of this Amendment,
Borrowers shall have delivered to Lender such documentation as may be requested
by Lender, or its counsel, to satisfy Lender that this Amendment has been duly
authorized, executed and delivered on behalf of each Borrower, constitutes the
valid and binding obligations of each Borrower, and is entitled to the security
of the Agreement and the Security Documents.
4. Notwithstanding the execution of this Amendment, all of the
indebtedness evidenced by each of the Notes shall remain in full force and
effect, and any Collateral described in any agreement providing security for any
Obligation of the Borrowers or any of them so defined to include the Notes, or
any of them, shall remain subject to the liens, pledges, security interests and
assignments of any such agreements as security for the indebtedness evidenced by
each of the Notes, the Obligations, and all other indebtedness described
therein; nothing contained in this Amendment shall be construed to constitute a
novation of any of the indebtedness evidenced by the Notes or to release,
satisfy, discharge or otherwise affect or impair in any manner whatsoever (a)
the validity or enforceability of any of the indebtedness evidenced by the
Notes; (b) the liens, pledges, security interests, assignments and conveyances
effected by the Agreement, the Security Documents and any other agreement
securing any of the Notes, or the priority thereof; (c) the liability of any
maker, endorser, surety, guarantor or other Person that may now or hereafter be

all of the Notes; or (d) any other security or instrument now or hereafter held
by Lender as security for or as evidence of any of the above-described
indebtedness. Without in any way limiting the foregoing, (i) each Borrower
acknowledges and agrees that the indebtedness evidenced by each of the Notes is
and shall remain secured by the Collateral described in the Agreement and in the
Security Documents and (ii) Cavalier Homes specifically, in its capacity as
guarantor under those certain Continuing Guaranty Agreements dated February 17,
1994, March 14, 1996, June 1, 1998 and March 31, 2000, by Cavalier Homes in
favor of Lender (the "Guaranty Agreements"), acknowledges and agrees that the
"Liabilities" (as defined in the Guaranty Agreements) of CIS Financial which are
unconditionally guaranteed by Cavalier Homes shall in no way be modified,
altered or impaired by this Amendment.
5. Borrowers, jointly and severally, hereby represent and
warrant to Lender that (a) the officers of each Borrower executing this
Amendment have been duly authorized to do so and such amendment and the
Agreement are valid and binding upon each Borrower which is a party thereto in
every respect, enforceable in accordance with their terms, (b) each and every
representation and warranty set forth in Article VI of the Agreement is true and
correct as of the date hereof, and (c) no Event of Default, nor any event that,
upon notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default, has
occurred and is continuing.
6. Unless otherwise expressly modified or amended hereby, all
terms and conditions of the Agreement as heretofore amended shall remain in full
force and effect, and the same, as amended hereby, are hereby ratified and
confirmed in all respects.
7. This Amendment shall inure to and be binding upon and
enforceable by Borrowers and Lender and their respective successors and
assigns.
8. This Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts,
each of which when executed and delivered shall constitute an original. All such
counterparts shall together be deemed to be one and the same instrument. The
parties agree that any facsimile signature of any party on any counterpart
original of this Amendment shall be deemed to be an original signature of such
party for all purposes and shall fully bind the party whose facsimile signature
appears on the counterpart original.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have duly executed this
Amendment, by and through their respective duly authorized officers, as of the
