incorporation from  the state of Delaware to the state of

     B.    Borrower has requested, and Lenders and Agent  have

     NOW,  THEREFORE,  Lenders, Agent and  Borrower  agree  as

                           AMENDMENT

     "Commitment"  means  (a) subject  to  clause  (c)  below,
between  the  date of this Agreement and the  earlier  of  the

Agreement  shall  remain in full force  and  effect.   Without
limiting  the  generality  of  the  foregoing  sentence,   all
Quarterly  Compliance  Certificates  other  than  the  Amended

accordance  with  the laws of the state of Washington  without
regard to principles of conflicts of laws.
