On March 31, 2000, Safelite Glass Corp. (the "Company") announced that it had
entered into a Waiver, Second Amendment and Agreement (the "Agreement") with its
existing senior bank lenders. Pursuant to the Agreement, the lenders have agreed
to waive certain technical defaults under the Company's $388 million senior bank
credit facility until June 9, 2000 (the "Waiver Period"). In connection with the
Agreement, the Company paid the lenders a restructuring fee and agreed that it
would make additional borrowings under the revolving loan portion of the credit
facility during the Waiver Period only with the approval of each of the lenders
and that, except in certain circumstances, it would not make voluntary
prepayments of its loans under the credit facility. The Company also agreed to
additional restrictions on its ability to sell assets; acquire assets or capital
stock; incur additional indebtedness; make investments, loans or advances;
redeem or purchase its own common or preferred stock; and engage in certain
transactions with affiliates. The foregoing description is qualified in its
entirety by reference to the Agreement which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1
and is incorporated herein by reference.

The Company also announced that it has commenced discussions with certain

          to receive such surplus.".

     2.17 Amendment to Article IX of the Security Agreement. Article IX of the
Security Agreement is hereby amended by deleting from the "Obligations"
definition of said Article each parenthetical immediately following the phrase
"all obligations" and inserting in lieu thereof each such time the following new
parenthetical:

          "(including interest accruing on or after the filing of any petition
          in bankruptcy or for reorganization relating to the Borrower or any
          Subsidiary of the Borrower whether or not a claim for post-filing
          interest is allowed in such proceedings)".

     SECTION 3. AGREEMENTS.

     3.1 Limitation on Extensions of Credit. (a) Unless the Required Banks and
all of the Revolving Banks under the Revolving Credit Facility otherwise agree,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Credit Agreement, the
Borrower shall not have the right to, and shall not, request a Borrowing of
Revolving Loans during the Second Amendment Period.

     (b) Any Letter of Credit issued during the Second Amendment Period for the
account of the Borrower shall have an expiry date occurring not later than 120
days after such Letter of Credit's date of issuance, provided that any such
Letter of Credit may be automatically


                                       7

<PAGE>


extendable for periods of up to 120 days so long as such Letter of Credit
provides that the Letter of Credit Issuer retains an option, satisfactory to the
Letter of Credit Issuer, to terminate such Letter of Credit by giving notice to
the Borrower and the beneficiary under any such Letter of Credit not less than
thirty (30) days prior to each scheduled extension date.

     3.2 Cash Flow Forecasts. During the Second Amendment Period, the Borrower
shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and each Bank on the Wednesday of
every second calendar week, commencing with the first Wednesday to occur during
the Second Amendment Period, a forecast of the cash flows, cash balances and
line availability of the Borrower for the period of four consecutive calendar
weeks beginning in the week in which the applicable Wednesday occurs together
with a comparison of the actual cash flows, cash balances and line availability
of the Borrower for the two week period immediately preceding the most recently
forecasted cash flows of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries for the
week in which such Wednesday occurs.

     3.3 Engagement of The Blackstone Group. During the Second Amendment Period,
the Borrower shall continue its engagement of The Blackstone Group L.P. as
financial consultants and review from time to time with the Administrative Agent
and the Banks the scope and terms of such engagement.

     3.4 Payment of Expenses. In addition to its obligations under Section 12.01
of the Credit Agreement (which obligations the Borrower hereby acknowledges and
confirms), the Borrower agrees:

     (a) to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the
     Administrative Agent incurred in connection with (i) the negotiation,
     preparation, execution and delivery of this Second Amendment and (ii) from
     and after the Second Amendment Effective Date, the consideration, analysis,
     review, negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of any
     recapitalization or restructuring proposals with respect to the obligations
     of the Borrower (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and
     expenses of counsel, investment bankers, and financial or other advisors
     retained by the Administrative Agent); and

     (b) to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of each Bank
     incurred in connection with (i) the negotiation, execution and delivery of
     this Second Amendment and (ii) from and after the Second Amendment
     Effective Date, the review and analysis of (but not litigation with respect
     to) the Credit Documents and the collateral security for the obligations
     thereunder, the consideration, analysis and review of any recapitalization
     or restructuring proposals with respect to the obligations of the Borrower
     and the negotiation, execution and delivery of any amendment, waiver or
     consent relating to the Credit Documents (including, without limitation,
     the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel), provided that the Borrower's
     obligation under this paragraph (b) shall be limited to an amount not to
     exceed the lesser of $10,000 for each Bank for each calendar quarter and
     $150,000 in the aggregate for all of the Banks (but not the Agents) per
     calendar quarter, with each Bank having such expenses during any


                                       8

<PAGE>


     calendar quarter receiving a ratable share of $150,000 in the event that
     the aggregate amount of expenses payable hereunder exceed $150,000 in such
     calendar quarter.

     3.5 Subsidiaries. The Borrower hereby agrees that, notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in the Credit Agreement, from and after the Second
Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower shall not have the right to, and shall
not, create or acquire any Subsidiaries.

     3.6 Limitation on Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrower hereby agrees that,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Credit Agreement, from
and after the Second Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower shall not have the
right to, and shall not, make any voluntary prepayments of the Loans except (i)
the Borrower shall have the right to prepay Revolving Loans (if any) first made
after the Second Amendment Effective and (ii) if there are no Letters of Credit
or Revolving Loans which were first issued or made, as applicable, after the
Second Amendment Effective outstanding, the Borrower shall have the right to
prepay the Loans so long as any prepayment of the Term Loans or Revolving Loans
is accompanied by a prepayment of the other, with such prepayments being in
amounts that reflect equal percentages of the outstanding Revolving Loans and
the outstanding Term Loans, respectively.

     SECTION 4. WAIVERS

     The Banks hereby waive, during the Second Amendment Period, any Default or
Event of Default (a) under Section 9.03 of the Credit Agreement arising as a
result of the Borrower's failure to (i) maintain the minimum Interest Coverage
Ratio and minimum Leverage Ratio required pursuant to Sections 8.11 and 8.12 of
the Credit Agreement, respectively, for the Test Period ending on or about March
31, 2000 and (ii) maintain the Interest Rate Protection Agreements required
pursuant to Section 7.12 of the Credit Agreement and (b) under Section 9.02 of
the Credit Agreement arising as a result of the inaccuracy of the representation
contained in Section 6.10(e) of the Credit Agreement.

     SECTION 5. MISCELLANEOUS.

     5.1 Effective Date. This Second Amendment will become effective on the date

Agreement and for which invoices have been submitted.

constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable
against it in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be
limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyances, reorganization,
moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally, by general
equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or
at law) and by an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing; (b) the
representations and warranties made by the Borrower in the Credit Documents are
true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof (except
to the extent that such representations and warranties are expressly stated to
relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties
shall have been true and correct in all material respects on and as of such
earlier date); (c) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing as of such date; and (d) the Borrower is truly and justly indebted to
each of the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent and the Banks pursuant
to the Credit Documents, without defense, counterclaim or offset of any kind.

     5.3 Limited Effect. Except as expressly waived or amended hereby, the
Credit Agreement shall continue to be and shall remain in full force and effect
in accordance with its terms, and this Second Amendment shall not constitute the
Banks' consent or indicate their willingness to consent to any other amendment,
modification or waiver of the Credit Agreement or any other Credit Documents.

CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
