has been entered into on or before the date of the compliance
certificate demonstrating compliance with such covenant for such
period, with a closing scheduled not later than the last day of the

chattel paper" from the parenthetical phrase contained therein.
(e) Section 2.5 of the Credit Agreement shall be amended by adding
the following new Sections 2.5(D):
"(D) Other Mandatory Prepayments
(i) The Company shall prepay the Revolving Credit
Obligations and Term Loans and the "Loans" under the 364-Day Credit
Agreement in an amount equal to 100% of (A) the Net Proceeds realized
upon any Asset Sale made by the Company or its Subsidiaries (B) any
insurance proceeds received by the Company or its Subsidiaries in
respect of any casualty involving such Person's property and (C) any
payments received by the Company or its Subsidiaries from a
condemnation of such Person's property, to the extent any of the
foregoing Net Proceeds are not applied (or committed to be applied)
within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the consummation or
receipt thereof, as applicable, to the purchase of similar assets used
or useful in the business of the Company or its Subsidiaries or to the
repair or restoration of the Borrowers' property. If the aggregate Net
Proceeds under clause (B) during any fiscal quarter exceed $5,000,000,
the Company shall give notice of its intent to reinvest any such
amounts (and the amount intended to be reinvested) to the
Administrative Agent upon receipt of such proceeds. Pending such
reinvestment, the Company shall use such Net Proceeds to pay down the
principal amount of the Revolving Loans and the "Loans" made under the
364-Day Credit Agreement to the extent thereof (but without a permanent
reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitments). If the Company does not
intend to so reinvest such Net Proceeds or if the period set forth in
the first sentence of this Section 2.5(D)(i) expires without the
Company having reinvested such Net Proceeds, the Company shall prepay
the Revolving Credit Obligations and Term Loans and the "Loans" made
under the 364-Day Credit Agreement (within one (1) Business Day of the
expiration of said one hundred and twenty (120) day period) in an
amount equal to the Net Proceeds of such Asset Disposition after giving
effect to all reinvestments permitted by this subsection.
(ii) If the Company or any Subsidiary shall issue new
Equity Interests or receive any capital contributions other than Equity
Interests issued to the Company or another Subsidiary, Equity Interests
issued in connection with employee stock option plans, employee stock
purchase plans, 401(k) plans and directors' deferred compensation plans
not to exceed an aggregate of 9,000,000 shares, and capital
contributions received from the Company or another Subsidiary, the
Company shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of the estimated
Net Proceeds of such issuance to be received in respect thereof.
Promptly upon, and in no event later than one (1) Business Day after,
receipt by the Company or such Subsidiary of Net Proceeds of such
issuance, the Company shall prepay the "Revolving Credit Obligations"
and "Term Loans" under the 5-Year Credit Agreement in the amount of
such Net Proceeds.
(iii) After the payment or repayment in full of the Term
Loan, promptly upon, and in no event later than one (1) Business Day
after, the receipt by any Borrower of (1)
3
<PAGE> 4
the Net Proceeds from any sale of United States domestic Receivables
arising through an increase in advances made under the applicable
receivable securitization but limited to the amount of that increase or
(2) the Net Proceeds from the incurrence of any single issue of
Indebtedness in excess of $50,000,000 which is not permitted by Section
7.3(D)(i)-(iv) hereof, the Company shall prepay the Revolving Credit
Obligations and "Revolving Credit Obligations" under the 364-Day Credit
Agreement in the amount of such Net Proceeds.
(iv) Notwithstanding Sections 2.5(D)(i) through (iii), the
Company shall be required to make prepayments only after and to the
extent that the aggregate Net Proceeds otherwise required to be paid
under all such Sections exceed $75,000,000. The Aggregate Revolving
Loan Commitment and the "Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment" under the
364-Day Credit Agreement shall be permanently reduced, and the
outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans shall be repaid, pro
rata (relative to the amount of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment
and the "Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment" under the 364-Day
Credit Agreement and the outstanding principal amount of the Term
Loans) by the amount of the prepayments required by this Section
2.5(D). The prepayments not applied to the Term Loan pursuant to the
immediately preceding sentence shall be applied first to the "Revolving
Credit Obligations" under the 364-Day Credit Agreement and then to the
Revolving Credit Obligations hereunder; provided that if prepayment of
all of the "Revolving Credit Obligations" under the 364-Day Credit
Agreement before any of the Revolving Credit Obligations hereunder,
together with the required reduction in the Aggregate Revolving Loan
Commitment, would cause the aggregate principal Dollar Amount of the
Revolving Credit Obligations to exceed the amount of the Aggregate
Revolving Loan Commitment, the prepayment shall be applied to the
Revolving Credit Obligations in an amount such that, after giving
effect to such prepayment and the required reduction in the Aggregate
Revolving Loan Commitment, the Revolving Credit Obligations equals the
Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment and the amount of the prepayment to
be applied to the "Revolving Credit Obligations" under the 364-Day
Credit Agreement shall be reduced accordingly."
(f) Section 2.15(D)(ii) of the Credit Agreement shall be amended
by deleting the last sentence of such subsection, deleting the table contained
in such subsection and replacing such table with the following table:
