Ladies and Gentlemen:
Reference is made to the Note Agreement dated as of December
11, 1992, as amended (the "Agreement) between Intermet
Corporation and The Prudential Insurance Company of America
("Prudential"). Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized
terms used herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the
Agreement.
1. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein,
Prudential hereby agrees that (1) paragraph 6B(2)(2) is hereby
amended and restated as of December 31, 1994 as follows:
(2) as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, Senior
Debt to exceed the following percentage of Total
Capitalization as at each fiscal quarter ending during the
stated periods:
Period Ratio
------ -----
Fourth Fiscal Quarter End 1994 51%
First Fiscal Quarter End 1995 49%
Second Fiscal Quarter End 1995 48%
Third Fiscal Quarter End 1995
and thereafter 45%
and (ii) the items set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto and
incorporated herein by reference were not incurred in the
ordinary course of business and are therefore properly added to
Consolidated Net Income (Loss) of the Company for the fourth
fiscal quarter of 1994 in determining Consolidated EBITDAR;
provided, however, that the nature of the items listed on Exhibit
A shall not be dispositive of an appropriate determination of
whether any future gain or loss is incurred in the ordinary
course of business of the Company.

Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B.

Agreement shall not be deemed to be a waiver or modification of
any provisions of the Agreement and shall not preclude the future
exercise of any right, power or privilege available to any holder
of a Note.
4. This Amendment and Agreement may be signed in any number of
counterparts each of which shall be an original and all of which
together shall constitute one and same instrument.
