herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such
terms in the Note Agreement.

         Pursuant to the request of the Company and in accordance with the
provisions of paragraph 11C of the Note Agreement, the Company and the
undersigned holders of the Notes executing this letter agree as follows:

         SECTION 1. AMENDMENTS TO NOTE AGREEMENT. From and after the date this
Section 1 becomes effective in accordance with the terms of Section 3 hereof,
the Note Agreement is amended as follows:

         1.1. Paragraph 5 of the Note Agreement is amended by adding new
paragraphs 5I and 5J thereto, such paragraphs to read as follows:

                  "5I. SUBSEQUENT GUARANTORS. The Company covenants that if at
         any time any Person, which is not a Significant Subsidiary as of the
         Effective Date, shall become a Significant Subsidiary (other than a
         Foreign Subsidiary or a Subsidiary owned by a Foreign Subsidiary), the
         Company will cause such Person to execute and deliver to the holders of
         the Notes a Guaranty substantially in the form of the Guaranty
         delivered pursuant to the June 2000 Modification and will cause such
         Person to comply with the provisions of paragraph 5J hereof.

         Notes or the Collateral Agent, in due form for filing or recording (the
         Company hereby agrees to pay the cost of filing or recording the same
         (including without limitation any and all filing fees and recording
         taxes)) in all public offices necessary or deemed necessary by the
         Required Holder(s) or the Collateral Agent, such collateral
         assignments, security agreements, pledge agreements, mortgages,
         leasehold mortgages, warehouse receipts, bailee letters, consents,
         waivers, financing statements and other instruments and documents, and
         do such other acts and things, including, without limitation, all acts
         and things as the Required Holder(s) or the Collateral Agent may from
         time to time reasonably request, to establish and maintain to the
         satisfaction of the Required Holder(s) and the Collateral Agent a valid
         and perfected first priority security interest in favor of the
         Collateral Agent in all of the present and/or future Collateral free of
         all other Liens whatsoever (subject only to Permitted Liens), and to
         deliver to the Collateral Agent or the holders of the Notes such
         certificates, documents, instruments and opinions in connection
         therewith as may be reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent or the
         Required Holder(s), each in form and substance reasonably satisfactory

         neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall be required to pledge more
         than 65% of the stock of any Foreign Subsidiary. In the event that the
         Company or any Subsidiary hereafter acquires any real property or
         interest in real property on which a Lien is required to be granted to
         the Collateral Agent pursuant to this paragraph, then the Company shall
         also supply to the Collateral Agent and the holders of the Notes, at
         the Company's sole cost and expense, a survey, environmental report,
         hazard insurance policy and a mortgagee's policy of title insurance
         from a title insurer reasonably acceptable to the Required Holder(s)
         insuring the validity of such Lien on the real property or interest in
         real property encumbered thereby, each in form and substance reasonably
         satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and the Required Holder(s). The
         Company hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the
         Collateral Agent (and all other persons designated by the Collateral
         Agent for that purpose) as the Company's true and lawful agent and
         attorney-in-fact to, if the Company fails to do so as required upon the
         request of the Required Holder(s) or the Collateral Agent, sign the
         Company's name on any such agreements, instruments and documents
         referred to in the preceding sentences and to deliver such agreements,
         instruments and documents to such Persons as the Required Holder(s) or
         the Collateral Agent in their sole discretion may elect."

         Notes, whereby such financial or negative covenants or events of
         default are added to this Agreement for the benefit of the Notes, and
         any conditions precedent to the effectiveness of such agreement have
         been satisfied; provided, however, that the foregoing provisions shall
         not require the Company to cause the provisions of Section 6.19.3 of

         1.13. In addition to interest accruing on the Notes, the Company agrees

each fiscal quarter, beginning with the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2000,
during which the Debt Coverage Ratio equaled or exceeded 2.75 to 1.00 at any
time (a "Leverage Event"). The Leverage Fee payable with respect to each Note
shall be a dollar amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying (a)
Applicable Factor times (b) the "Weighted Dollar Average" of outstanding

Leverage Event occurred. The Leverage Fee shall be payable in arrears and due on
the next interest payment due date which falls on or after the last day of the
fiscal quarter in which the Leverage Event occurred. With respect to any fiscal
quarter, the Leverage Fee shall only be payable for the first Leverage Event to
occur in such fiscal quarter (but the Applicable Factor for such fiscal quarter
shall be determined as provided below based upon all Leverage Events which
occurred during such fiscal quarter). The acceptance of the Leverage Fee by any
holder of a Note shall not constitute a waiver of any Default or Event of
Default. The "Applicable Factor" for any fiscal quarter shall be equal to (a)
 .0025 if at any time during such fiscal quarter the Debt Coverage Ratio equaled
or exceeded 4.00 to 1.00, (b) .001875 if at any time during such fiscal quarter
the Debt Coverage Ratio equaled or exceeded 3.50, but at no time during such
fiscal quarter did the Debt Coverage Ratio equal or exceed 4.00 to 1.00, and (c)
 .00125 if at no time during such fiscal quarter did the Debt Coverage Ratio
equal or exceed 3.50 to 1.00. As used herein, the term "Weighted Dollar Average"
shall mean, with respect to any Note, during any fiscal quarter of the Company,
a dollar amount determined by adding together the daily outstanding principal
balance of such Note during such
