permit the delivery of the audited financial statements for Borrowers' fiscal
years ending December 31, 2003, December 31, 2002, December 31, 2001 and
December 31, 2000 on or before April 18, 2005 instead of on or before April 1,

Subject to the conditions of this letter, Borrowers and Bank hereby agree
