     (v)  Concorde and CenCor wish to amend the Agreement to provide for such
payment of the Accrued Interest.

Concorde will deliver to CenCor all relevant documentation underlying each of
the Receivables, including copies of ledger cards, enrollment agreements,
promissory notes (if existing), and any documentation, available to either
Concorde or the Guarantors, concerning prior collection efforts on the part of
any of them or their agents.  In order to facilitate the efficient and orderly
recording and processing of this documentation, itemized deliveries will be made
weekly, each such delivery covering groups of Receivables aggregating $750,000
to $1,000,000 in face value, until the documentation for all the Receivables has
been delivered.  Deliveries shall be made to CenCor at its offices at City
Center Square, 1100 Main Street, Suite 2350, Kansas City, Missouri 64105, or
such other location that CenCor shall designate in writing.

     3.2  COLLECTION EFFORTS.  In consideration of the Right of Substitution
afforded to CenCor and in light of the Right of Credit, CenCor agrees that it
will take reasonable steps to collect, in full or part, in a lump sum or in
installment payments, each of the Receivables (the "Collection Efforts"),
including, but not necessarily limited to reasonable search efforts to locate
the Student (if necessary) and if the Student's location is known or determined:

          (a)  initial telephone contact with the Student and, if collection is
     not obtained as a result thereof;

          (b)  the sending of a default letter, outlining liability and
     penalties for failure to pay or settle the Receivable, by certified mail to
     Student and, if collection is not obtained as a result thereof;

          (c)  reasonable follow-up telephone contact with the Student and, if
     collection is not obtained as a result thereof;

          (d)  management review as to feasibility of legal action to collect.

These Collection Efforts shall be made by a Collection Agent or Agents hired by
CenCor, subject to Concorde's reasonable approval as to such employment and the
terms of engagement (including fee schedules, acceptable collection procedures
and settlement parameters, and provision of adequate indemnification of Concorde
for any liability resulting from such agent's collection or settlement
activities, which is secured by adequate insurance coverage).  Furthermore,
Concorde shall have the right to reasonably request that CenCor terminate its



                                        4


engagement with a given Collection Agent within 30 days of such written request.
In addition to the Collection Efforts, CenCor may elect to (i) settle a
Receivable for a partial payment, in cash or in installments, (ii) turn a
Receivable over to legal counsel for collection, or (iii) make such other
efforts through a Collection Agent to obtain collection as CenCor deems
appropriate.

     3.3  RECORD KEEPING AND REPORTS.  CenCor shall maintain, or cause its
Collection Agents to maintain, a record on each Receivable as to efforts made to
collect each such Receivable; the terms of any settlement entered into with
respect to each such Receivable; all amounts received by CenCor in connection
with each such Receivable; and the amount, if any, of Allowable Collection
Expenses actually paid with respect to each such Receivable.  CenCor shall
provide, or cause its Collection Agents to provide, to Concorde (with copies to
Mark Twain Kansas City Bank, a Missouri banking corporation ["Mark Twain"])
reports, at least quarterly, which set forth the foregoing and report, in
aggregate:

          (a)  the amount of Gross Collections, in the preceding period and from
     contract inception to date; and

          (b)  the amount of Allowable Collection Expenses paid by CenCor (and
     to whom) on the Receivables, in the preceding period and from contract
     inception to date.

                                   ARTICLE IV
                        RIGHTS OF SUBSTITUTION AND CREDIT

     4.1  RIGHT OF SUBSTITUTION.  Subject to the provisions set forth herein,
provided that CenCor has not yet recouped an amount equal to one hundred percent
(100%) of the Accrued Interest, and a Remainder of Accrued Interest exists,
CenCor shall have a limited right of substitution as to the Receivables (the
"Right of Substitution"), and may elect to reassign certain Worked Receivables
to Concorde in exchange for the assignment from Concorde or the Guarantors of
additional receivables of equal face value ("Substituted Receivables").

          (a)  This Right of Substitution may be exercised once every six
     months, commencing six months after the date of the first delivery of
     Receivables, pursuant to Section 3.1, by CenCor giving written notice of
     its election to exercise its Right of Substitution to Concorde.  This Right
     of Substitution shall terminate at such time as CenCor has recouped an
     amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Accrued Interest.



                                        5


          (b)  The amount of Receivables as to which CenCor may exercise this
     Right of Substitution shall be limited to the amount of Receivables that
     constitute Worked Receivables on the date of exercise of the right, up to a
     maximum face amount equal to the then current Remainder of Accrued Interest
     multiplied by fifteen.

          (c)  The amount of Worked Receivables to be Substituted may only be
     exercised as to $100,000 (one hundred thousand dollar) blocks, based on
     face value (unless Concorde's total receivables available for substitution
     at such time are less than $100,000, in which case the total amount of such
     receivables shall be the cap).

          (d)  Substituted Receivables shall be selected at the discretion of
     Concorde and limited to its then outstanding receivables which have been
     written off by Concorde or the Guarantors for financial statement purposes
     pursuant to Concorde's historical accounting practices and which comply
     with the representations and warranties set forth in Section 8.1.

     4.2  RIGHT OF CREDIT.  In the event the amount of CenCor's Gross
Collections, less Allowable Collection Expenses, exceeds the amount of the
Accrued Interest, the amount of such excess (the "Overage") shall be:

          (a)  paid to Concorde as reimbursement of amounts paid by Concorde in
     legal fees and expenses, either to Concorde's legal counsel or CenCor's
     legal counsel (pursuant to Section 9.1) in connection with the negotiation,
     preparation and implementation of this First Amendment; and

          (b)  to the extent the Overage exceeds such reimbursement, retained by
     CenCor but applied as a credit to any amounts owing from Concorde to CenCor
     under the Debenture, first to interest which has accrued since December 31,
     1993 and then, to the extent of any excess Overage, either to prepayment of
     principal or to prepayment of future interest payments due, at the option
     of Concorde.

In the event of an Overage, and in lieu of creating additional Overages, CenCor
may elect to cease its Collection Efforts on Outstanding Unworked Receivables by
reassigning those remaining Outstanding Unworked Receivables to Concorde and/or
may assign any outstanding installment payments on settlement agreements with
Students to Concorde.

     "(e)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the interest accrued from the date of
     issuance of the Debenture through and including December 31, 1993 shall be
     prepaid by Concorde through the Assignment of the Receivables.  In the
     event the Collection Efforts of CenCor, pursuant to the terms of the First
     Amendment, yield an Overage, the amount of such Overage shall be (a) paid
     to Concorde as reimbursement of amounts paid by Concorde in legal fees and
     expenses, either to Concorde's legal counsel or CenCor's legal counsel
     (pursuant to Section 9.1 of the First Amendment) in connection with the
     negotiation, preparation and implementation of the First Amendment; and (b)
     to the extent the Overage exceeds such reimbursement, retained by CenCor
     but applied as a credit first against the interest on the Debenture then
     accrued but unpaid, and then, to the extent of any excess Overage, either
     to prepayment of principal or to prepayment of future interest payments
     due, at the option of Concorde.  Additionally, subject to the written
     consent of CenCor's Board of Directors, Concorde and Mark Twain, interest
     on the Debenture accrued after December 31, 1993 may be paid or prepaid by
     the future assignment of additional receivables, on the same terms as set
     forth in the First Amendment, as evidenced by the execution of subsequent
     assignments, substantially in the form of Exhibit A, hereto."

     5.2  INTEREST: RATE AND TERMS.  Section 2.4 of the Agreement is hereby

     such debt are not enforceable.  To protect the debtor and creditor from
     misunderstanding or disappointment, any agreements we reach covering such
     matters are contained in this writing, which is the complete and exclusive
     statement of the agreement between us, except as we may later agree in
     writing to modify it.
