                                       TO
              AMENDED AND RESTATED AGREEMENT OF LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
                                       OF
                            HERITAGE OPERATING, L.P.


         This Amendment (this "Amendment") to the Amended and Restated Agreement
of Limited Partnership of Heritage Operating, L.P. (the "Partnership") , dated
as of June 27, 1996 (the "Partnership Agreement" ) is entered into effect as of
August 10, 2000 by Heritage Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "General
Partner"), as the general partner of the Partnership, on behalf of itself and
the Limited Partner of the Partnership. Capitalized terms used but not defined
herein are used as defined in the Partnership Agreement.

                                    RECITALS

                  WHEREAS, Article XIII of the Partnership Agreement provides
         that the General Partner, without the approval of any Limited Partner,
         may amend the Partnership Agreement in a manner that does not adversely
         affect the Limited Partners; and

                  WHEREAS, a provision in the Partnership Agreement is necessary
         to accommodate additional limited partners' capital contributions and
         reflect that ownership in the accounts of the Partnership.

         NOW, THEREFORE, the General Partner hereby amends the definition of
"Percentage Interest" as set forth in Section 1.1 of the Partnership Agreement
to read as follows:

                  "Percentage Interest" means the percentage interest in the
         Partnership held by each Partner upon completion of the transactions in
         Section 5.2 and thereafter shall mean (a) as to the General Partner (in
         its capacity as general partner of the Partnership), 1.010%, and (b) as
         to any Limited Partner from time to time, the percentage equivalent to
         the aggregate Capital Contributions made to the Partnership related to
         the Partnership Interest then held by that Limited Partner (in its
         capacity as a Limited Partner) divided by the aggregate Capital
         Contributions made to the Partnership related to the Partnership
         Interest then held by all Limited Partners (in their capacity as
         Limited Partners)."

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Amendment has been executed as of the date
first above written.
