     as follows:

               (i) First, to the payment of all costs, expenses, liabilities and
          advances made or incurred by the Collateral Agent (in its capacity as
          Collateral Agent and not as Bank Agent or a Bank) in connection with
          such proceedings, adjustments, sale, foreclosure or other disposition
          and in performing its duties hereunder, including compensation payable
          to the Collateral Agent and the costs, expenses and compensation of

          remaining Senior Obligations are paid in full; and



                                      -4-

               (iv) Fourth, to the extent any Cash Management Funds or proceeds
          remain after payment in full of those items specified in clauses (i),
          (ii) and (iii) above, such proceeds shall be paid to or at the

     Noteholder signatory hereto, and each Additional Senior Creditor hereby
     agrees that (i) if at any time it shall receive Cash Management Funds or

     Collateral Agent for application in accordance with said clauses (a) and
     (b) and (ii) it will not take or cause to be taken any action, including,
     without limitation, the commencement of any legal or equitable proceedings,

     hereof."

     5. Addition of Section 5A of the Intercreditor Agreement. The Intercreditor
        -----------------------------------------------------
Agreement is hereby amended by inserting the following new Section 5A in proper
numerical order therein:

     "SECTION 5A. TRUE UP.



                                      -5-

          (a) If, on the True Up Date, the Base Percentage of any Senior
     Creditor varies from the True Up Date Risk Percentage of such Senior
     Creditor, the Senior Creditor s, on the True Up Date, will make such
     acquisitions, dispositions and other arrangements with one another, whether
     by way of purchase, sale, participation, contribution, distribution, pro
                                                                          ---
     tanto assumption or assignment of claims, subrogation or otherwise, as
     -----
     shall result in each Senior Creditor's True Up Date Risk Percentage being
     equal (as nearly as may be) to such Senior Creditor's Base Percentage.

          (b) The Collateral Agent shall establish reasonable procedures to
     implement such arrangements among the Senior Creditors. Such procedures may
     include requiring the Senior Creditors whose True Up Date Risk Percentages
     are less than their Base Percentages on the True Up Date to make payments
     to the Collateral Agent for distribution to the Senior Creditors whose True
     Up Date Risk Percentages are greater than their Base Percentages on the
     True Up Date. The Borrower agrees to cooperate with the Collateral Agent
     and the Senior Creditors by issuing such promissory notes and other
     evidences of indebtedness to confirm the amounts owed to each Senior
     Creditor after giving effect to such arrangements.

          (c) No assignment by any Senior Creditor made pursuant to the relevant
     provisions of the Loan Agreement or the Note Purchase Agreements of any of
     the Senior Obligations owed to such Senior Creditor shall release such
     Senior Creditor from its obligations to the other Senior Creditors under
     this Section 5A.

          (d) From and after the True Up Date, the following provisions shall
     apply:

               (1) The Collateral Agent will distribute all payments to be
          applied to the payment of Senior Obligations consisting of principal
          and interest (excluding default-rate interest), so that, after giving
          effect to such payments, the percentage which the Specified
          Obligations owed to each Senior Creditor bears to the Specified
          Obligations owed all of the Senior Creditors equals (as nearly as may
          be) such Senior Creditor's Base Percentage.

               (2) Any expense reimbursement or indemnification obligations of
          the Senior Creditors in favor of the Collateral Agent pursuant to
          Section 5 of the Intercreditor Agreement or any other provisions of
          any of the Note Documents or the Loan Documents shall be allocated
          among the Senior Creditors in accordance with their Base Percentages.

               (3) Any sharing of payments among the Senior Creditors pursuant
          to Section 5(a)(iii) shall be made in accordance with the Senior
          Creditors' Base Percentages.

               (4) The provisions of this Section 5A(d) shall control over other
          provisions of this Intercreditor Agreement that would otherwise
          require such payments to be made or obligations to be allocated among
          the Senior Creditors other than in accordance with their Base
          Percentages.



                                      -6-

          (e) Each of the Senior Creditors agrees with each other Senior
     Creditor that if, after the True Up Date, such Senior Creditor shall
     receive from the Borrower, whether by voluntary payment, counterclaim,
     cross action, enforcement of the claim constituting Senior Obligations owed
     to such Senior Creditor, by proceedings against the Borrower at law or in
     equity or by proof thereof in bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation,
     receivership or similar proceedings, or otherwise, and shall retain and
     apply to the payment of the Senior Obligations owing to such Senior
     Creditor, any amount in excess of its Base Percentage of the Specified
     Obligations, such Senior Creditor will make such disposition and
     arrangements with the other Senior Creditors with respect to such excess,
     either by way of distribution, pro tanto assignment of claims, subrogation
                                    --- -----
     or otherwise as shall result in each Senior Creditor receiving its Base
     Percentage of the Specified Obligations owing to it; provided that if all
                                                          --------
     or any part of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such Senior
     Creditor, such disposition and arrangements shall be rescinded and the
     amount restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

          (f) To the extent that any Senior Creditor's claim in respect of
     Specified Obligations is subordinated to the claims of general unsecured
     creditors as a class under principles of equitable subordination, such
     Senior Creditor is not entitled to receive any payment under this Section
     5A from any other Senior Creditor to the extent that the other Senior
     Creditor's claim in respect of Specified Obligations is not likewise
     subordinated. To the extent that any Senior Creditor's claim in respect of
     Specified Obligations is subordinated to the claim of any other Senior
     Creditor in respect of Specified Obligations under principles of equitable
     subordination, such subordinated Senior Creditor is not entitled to receive
     any payment under this Section 5A from such other Senior Creditor to the
     extent of the subordination. If any Senior Creditor does receive a payment
     under this Section 5A and such Senior Creditor's claim is thereafter
     subordinated, as contemplated by either of the foregoing sentences, to any
     extent, the subordinated Senior Creditor shall, to the extent that such
     subordinated Senior Creditor was not entitled to such payment under either
     of the foregoing sentences, rescind the amount of the payment and restore
     such payment to the paying Senior Creditor, but without interest.

          (g) If any Senior Creditor fails to make any payment to any other
     Senior Creditor required to be made by this Section 5A within five (5) days
     following demand by the other Senior Creditor, the amount owing by the
     other Senior Creditor to the demanding Senior Creditor shall bear interest
     at the Collateral Agent's prime rate and shall be payable on demand,
     whether before or after judgment. The Collateral Agent's prime rate shall
     be the variable annual rate of interest so designated from time to time by
     the Collateral Agent as its "prime rate," such rate being a reference rate
     and not necessarily representing the lowest or best rate being charged to
     any customer. In addition, if the demanding Senior Creditor institutes
     litigation to recover from the other Senior Creditor any amounts owing to
     the demanding Senior Creditor and not paid by the other Senior Creditor,
     and if the demanding Senior Creditor is the prevailing party in the
     litigation, the other Senior



                                      -7-

     Creditor shall reimburse the demanding Senior Creditor for the demanding
     Senior Creditor's reasonable attorneys' fees and other reasonable costs of
     collection.

          (h) For purposes of this Section 5A, the following terms shall have
     the following meanings:

               (i) "Base Percentage" means, with respect to any Senior Creditor,
          the percentage which the Specified Obligations owed to such Senior
          Creditor on June 29, 2001, bears to the Specified Obligations owed to
          all of the Senior Creditors on June 29, 2001. The Base Percentage of
          each Senior Creditor is set forth in the table below opposite the name
          of such Senior Creditor.
