   (a)  The definition of "Applicable Margin" set forth in Section 1.1 of the
Credit Agreement is hereby amended to read as follows:

     "Applicable Margin" means the following per annum percentages, applicable
in the following situations:
                                                            LIBOR Basis for
                                                            Advances of seven
                                                            or fourteen days or

_____________________________________  _________           ___________________

(a)  If the Leverage Ratio is greater
     than or equal to 2.75 to 1           0.500                     2.500

(b)  If the Leverage Ratio is greater
     than or equal to 2.50 to 1 but
     less than 2.75 to 1                  0.375                     2.125

(c)  If the Leverage Ratio is greater
     than or equal to 2.25 to 1 but
     less than 2.50 to 1                  0.000                     1.750

(d)  If the Leverage Ratio is less
     than 2.25 to 1                       0.000                     1.250

The Applicable Margin payable by the Borrower on the Revolving Credit Advances
hereunder shall be subject to reduction or increase, as applicable, and as set
forth in the table above, on a quarterly basis according to the performance of
the Borrower as tested by using the Leverage Ratio for the most recent fiscal
quarter.  Each adjustment in the LIBOR Basis shall be effective on the date of
receipt by the Administrative Lender of the financial statements (and related
Officer's Certificate) required pursuant to Section 6.1(a) or 6.1(b) hereof, as
applicable, provided that from October 27, 2000, until the Administrative
Lender shall have received the financial statements (and related Officer's
Certificate) required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(b) hereof for the
fiscal quarter ending November 30, 2000, the Applicable Margin with respect to
the LIBOR Basis and Base Rate Basis shall be determined as if the Leverage
Ratio is greater than or equal to 2.50 to 1 but less than 2.75 to 1.  If the
financial statements (and related Officer's Certificate) of the Borrower
setting forth the Leverage Ratio are not received by the date required pursuant
to Section 6.1(a) or 6.1(b) hereof, as applicable, the Applicable Margin shall
be determined as if the Leverage Ratio is greater than or equal to 2.75 to 1
until such time as such financial statements (and related Officer's
Certificate) are received.

     (b) The definition of "Applicable Law" set forth in Section 1.1 of the
Credit Agreement is hereby amended to read as follows:

     "Applicable Law" means (a) in respect of any Person, all provisions of
Laws applicable to such Person, and all orders and decrees of all courts and
arbitrators in proceedings or actions to which the Person in question is a
party and (b) in respect of contracts made or performed in the State of Texas,
"Applicable Law" shall also mean the laws of the United States of America,
including, without limiting the foregoing, 12 USC Sections 85 and 86, as
amended to the date hereof and as the same may be amended at any time and from
time to time hereafter, and any other statute of the United States of America
now or at any time hereafter prescribing the maximum rates of interest on loans
and extensions of credit, and the laws of the State of Texas.  The Borrower
agrees that the provisions of Chapter 303 of the Texas Finance Code, as
amended, shall not apply to the Advances hereunder.

     (c) The definition of "Highest Lawful Rate" set forth in Section 1.1 of
the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to read as follows:

     "Highest Lawful Rate" at the particular time in question the maximum rate
of interest which, under Applicable Law, any Lender is then permitted to charge
on the Obligations.  If the maximum rate of interest which, under Applicable
Law, any Lender is permitted to charge on the Obligations shall change after
the date hereof, the Highest Lawful Rate shall be automatically increased or
decreased, as the case may be, from time to time as of the effective time of
each change in the Highest Lawful Rate without notice to the Borrower.  For
purposes of determining the Highest Lawful Rate under Applicable Law, the
indicated rate ceiling shall be the lesser of (a)(i) the "weekly ceiling", as
that expression is defined in Section 303.003 of the Texas Finance Code, as
amended, or (ii) if available in accordance with the terms thereof and at
Administrative Agent's option after notice to the Borrower and otherwise in
accordance with the terms of Section 303.103 of the Texas Finance Code, as
amended, the "annualized ceiling" and (b)(i) if the amount outstanding under
this Agreement is less than $250,000, twenty-four percent (24%) per annum, or
(ii) if the amount under this Agreement is equal to or greater than $250,000,
twenty-eight percent (28%) per annum.

     (d) The definition of "Permitted Liens" set forth in Section 1.1 of the
Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting "$50,000,000" in clause (f)
thereof and inserting "$10,000,000" in lieu thereof.

     (e) Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding the
following defined terms thereto in proper alphabetical order to read as
follows:

     "Capital Expenditures" means, for any period, expenditures made by the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries to acquire or construct fixed assets, plant,
equipment and leasehold improvements (including renewals, improvements and
replacements during such period and the aggregate amount of items leased or
acquired in respect of Capitalized Lease Obligations).

     "Earnings Available for Fixed Charges" means, for any period, calculated

all interest, premium payments, fees, charges and related expenses (including,

however, notwithstanding the above to the contrary, for the purpose of
calculating (i) Net Earnings Available for Fixed Charges for (A) the period
from and including September 1, 2000 through and including August 31, 2001,
Capital Expenditures will be deemed to be the greater of (1) $20,000,000 or (2)

fiscal quarters, and (ii) Fixed Charges for each fiscal quarter through and
including August 31, 2001, dividends will be calculated on an annualized pro
forma basis utilizing the Borrower's current dividend payment schedule
disclosed to the Lenders; provided, further, however, notwithstanding the
above, in the event that the Board of Directors of the Borrower at its October
2000 board meeting votes to discontinue all payments of dividends (and such

                 SECTION 10.16  ARBITRATION AND WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

     (a)  THIS SECTION CONCERNS THE RESOLUTION OF ANY CONTROVERSIES OR CLAIMS
   BETWEEN BORROWER AND ADMINISTRATIVE LENDER AND LENDERS, WHETHER ARISING IN
   CONTRACT, TORT OR BY STATUTE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO CONTROVERSIES OR
   CLAIMS THAT ARISE OUT OF OR RELATE TO:  (i) THIS AGREEMENT (INCLUDING ANY
   RENEWALS, EXTENSIONS OR MODIFICATIONS); OR (ii) ANY LOAN PAPER AND ANY OTHER
   DOCUMENT RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY LOAN PAPER (COLLECTIVELY A
   "CLAIM").

     (b)  AT THE REQUEST OF BORROWER, ADMINISTRATIVE LENDER OR ANY LENDER, ANY
   CLAIM SHALL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
   FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT (TITLE 9, U. S. CODE) (THE "ACT").  THE ACT WILL
   APPLY EVEN THOUGH THIS AGREEMENT PROVIDES THAT IT IS GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF
   A SPECIFIED STATE.

     (c)  ARBITRATION PROCEEDINGS WILL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
   ACT, THE APPLICABLE RULES AND PROCEDURES FOR THE ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES OF
   JAMS OR ANY SUCCESSOR THEREOF ("JAMS"), AND THE TERMS OF THIS SECTION.  IN
   THE EVENT OF ANY INCONSISTENCY, THE TERMS OF THIS SECTION SHALL CONTROL.


     (d)  THE ARBITRATION SHALL BE ADMINISTERED BY JAMS AND CONDUCTED IN TEXAS.
   ALL CLAIMS SHALL BE DETERMINED BY ONE ARBITRATOR; HOWEVER, IF CLAIMS EXCEED
   $5,000,000, UPON THE REQUEST OF ANY PARTY, THE CLAIMS SHALL BE DECIDED BY
   THREE ARBITRATORS.  ALL ARBITRATION HEARINGS SHALL COMMENCE WITHIN 90 DAYS
   OF THE DEMAND FOR ARBITRATION AND CLOSE WITHIN 90 DAYS OF COMMENCEMENT AND
   THE AWARD OF THE ARBITRATOR(S) SHALL BE ISSUED WITHIN 30 DAYS OF THE CLOSE
   OF THE HEARING.  HOWEVER, THE ARBITRATOR(S), UPON A SHOWING OF GOOD CAUSE,
   MAY EXTEND THE COMMENCEMENT OF THE HEARING FOR UP TO AN ADDITIONAL 60 DAYS.
   THE ARBITRATOR(S) SHALL PROVIDE A CONCISE WRITTEN STATEMENT OF REASONS FOR
   THE AWARD.  THE ARBITRATION AWARD MAY BE SUBMITTED TO ANY COURT HAVING
   JURISDICTION TO BE CONFIRMED AND ENFORCED.

     (e)  THE ARBITRATOR(S) WILL HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO DECIDE WHETHER ANY CLAIM
   IS BARRED BY THE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS AND, IF SO, TO DISMISS THE
   ARBITRATION ON THAT BASIS. FOR PURPOSES OF THE APPLICATION OF THE STATUTE OF
   LIMITATIONS, THE SERVICE ON JAMS UNDER APPLICABLE JAMS RULES OF A NOTICE OF
   CLAIM IS THE EQUIVALENT OF THE FILING OF A LAWSUIT.  ANY DISPUTE CONCERNING
   THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION OR WHETHER A CLAIM IS ARBITRABLE SHALL BE
   DETERMINED BY THE ARBITRATOR(S).  THE ARBITRATOR(S) SHALL HAVE THE POWER TO
   AWARD LEGAL FEES PURSUANT TO THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT.

     (f)  THIS SECTION DOES NOT LIMIT THE RIGHT OF BORROWER, ADMINISTRATIVE
   LENDER OR ANY LENDER TO:  (i) EXERCISE SELF-HELP REMEDIES, SUCH AS BUT NOT
   LIMITED TO, SETOFF; (ii) INITIATE JUDICIAL OR NONJUDICIAL FORECLOSURE
   AGAINST ANY REAL OR PERSONAL PROPERTY COLLATERAL; (iii) EXERCISE ANY
   JUDICIAL OR POWER OF SALE RIGHTS, OR (iv) ACT IN A COURT OF LAW TO OBTAIN AN
   INTERIM  REMEDY, SUCH AS BUT NOT LIMITED TO, INJUNCTIVE RELIEF, WRIT OF
   POSSESSION OR APPOINTMENT OF A RECEIVER, OR ADDITIONAL OR SUPPLEMENTARY
   REMEDIES.

     (g)  THE FILING OF A COURT ACTION IS NOT INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE A WAIVER
   OF THE RIGHT OF BORROWER, ADMINISTRATIVE LENDER OR ANY LENDER, INCLUDING THE
   SUING PARTY, THEREAFTER TO REQUIRE SUBMITTAL OF THE CLAIM TO ARBITRATION.

     (h)  BY AGREEING TO BINDING ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY AND
   VOLUNTARILY WAIVE ANY RIGHT THEY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF
   ANY CLAIM.  FURTHERMORE, WITHOUT INTENDING IN ANY WAY TO LIMIT THIS
   AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE, TO THE EXTENT ANY CLAIM IS NOT ARBITRATED, THE
   PARTIES IRREVOCABLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVE ANY RIGHT THEY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL
   BY JURY IN RESPECT OF SUCH CLAIM.  THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT
   FOR THE PARTIES ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT.

     2. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES TRUE; NO EVENT OF DEFAULT.  By its
execution and delivery hereof, the Borrower represents and warrants that, as of
