SECTION 7.  ADJUSTMENT OF PRO RATA SHARES.

         7.1     Pursuant to the provisions of the Credit Agreement,  Advances
made by the Banks (excluding  Swing Line Advances)  consist of Loans made by the
several  Banks  ratably  in  proportion  to  the  ratio  that  their  respective
Commitments bear to the Aggregate Commitment. As a result of the increase in the
Commitment of Sanwa Bank California and KeyBank, and the resulting increasing in
the Aggregate Commitment, such ratio has been changed. As of the Effective Date,
each Bank whose  proportionate  share of such Advances  decreased as a result of
the change in such ratio (an  "Assignor  Bank") hereby sells and assigns to each
Bank whose  proportionate  share of Advances increased as a result of the change
in such ratio (an "Assignee Bank"),  and each Assignee Bank hereby purchases and
assumes,  without  recourse,  from each Assignor  Bank,  all of Assignor  Bank's
rights  and  obligations  in respect of the  portion of its  Commitment  and the
portion of all Advances  owing to the Assignor that are  outstanding on the date
hereof,   to  the  extent  required  in  order  to   appropriately   adjust  the
proportionate  shares  and  the  Advances.  In  connection  with  the  foregoing
assignment,  on or before 11:00 a.m.,  Phoenix time, on the Effective Date, each
Assignee Bank shall wire transfer to Agent the  applicable  amount  necessary to
make the  foregoing  adjustment,  and Agent shall wire  transfer the  respective
amount to each Assignor Bank on the Effective Date.

SECTION 8.  GENERAL.

         8.1     The Loan  Documents  as  modified  herein  contain  the  
complete understanding  and  agreement  of  Borrowers,  Banks and Agent in 
respect of the Credit Facility and supersede all prior representations, 
warranties, agreements, arrangements,  understandings,  and  negotiations.  
No  provision  of  the  Loan Documents  as  modified  herein  may  be  changed,
discharged,   supplemented, terminated, or waived except in a writing signed by
the parties thereto.

         8.2     The Loan Documents  as modified  herein shall be binding upon
and shall inure to the benefit of  Borrowers,  Banks and Agent and their  
successors and assigns; provided,  however, Borrowers may not assign any of 
their rights or delegate any of their  obligations  under the Loan  Documents  
and any purported assignment or delegation shall be void.
