14. The second sentence of Section 8.10 is hereby deleted
in its entirety and the following is substituted in lieu thereof:
The Borrower will, and will cause the Partnership to,

on its own behalf and to cause any Subsidiary (other than the
Partnership, as to a security agreement) to provide to the Agent for
the benefit of the Lenders a guaranty and/or a security agreement, is
