NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The  condensed  consolidated  financial  statements of PSS World  Medical,  Inc.
("PSS" or the "Company") reflect, in the opinion of management,  all adjustments
necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations for
the periods indicated.

The accompanying  condensed  consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction  with the  financial  statements  and related notes in the Company's
1999 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A.  Certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in financial  statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting  principles have been omitted pursuant to the Securities and
Exchange Commission rules and regulations.

Financial  statements for the Company's  subsidiaries  outside the United States
are  translated  into U.S.  dollars at  year-end  exchange  rates for assets and
liabilities  and weighted  average  exchange rates for income and expenses.  The
resulting translation adjustments are recorded in the other comprehensive income
component of shareholders' equity.

The Company operates on a thirteen week quarter which ends on the Friday closest
to each calendar quarter end. For purposes of presentation and clarity, calendar
quarter dates will be used for discussion and tables in this filing.

The results of operations for the interim periods covered by this report may not
necessarily be indicative of operating results for the full fiscal year.


NOTE 2 - BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

Purchase Acquisitions

During the three months ended  December 31, 1999, the Company  acquired  certain
assets and assumed  certain  liabilities  of four imaging  supply and  equipment
distributors. A summary of the details of the transactions follows:

                                                December 31, 1999

              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
       FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS DECEMBER 31, 1999 AND 1998 -Continued
                                   (Unaudited)
      (Dollars in Thousands, Except Per Share Data, Unless Otherwise Noted)


The  operations  of the acquired  companies  have been included in the Company's
results of operations  subsequent to the dates of acquisition.  Supplemental pro
forma information, assuming these acquisitions had been made at the beginning of
the year, is not provided, as the results would not be materially different from
the Company's reported results of operations.

These  acquisitions  were accounted for under the purchase method of accounting,
and  accordingly,  the assets of the acquired  companies  have been  recorded at
their estimated fair values at the dates of the acquisitions.  The excess of the
purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired has been
recorded as goodwill and is amortized over 30 years.

The  accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements  reflect the  preliminary
allocation  of  the  purchase  price.  The  allocation  of the  purchase  price,
performed  using values and estimates  available as of the date of the financial
statements, has not been finalized due to certain pre-acquisition  contingencies
identified  by the  Company  and the  nature of the  estimates  required  in the
establishment of the Company's merger integration plans.  Accordingly,  goodwill
associated with these  acquisitions  may increase or decrease in the next twelve
months.

In addition, the terms of certain of the Company's recent acquisition agreements
provide for additional consideration to be paid if the acquired entity's results
of operations exceed certain targeted levels.  Targeted levels are generally set
above  the  historical  experience  of  the  acquired  entity  at  the  time  of
acquisition.  Such  additional  consideration  is to be paid in cash or with the
Company's common stock and is recorded when earned as additional purchase price.
The maximum amount of remaining contingent  consideration is approximately $13.5
million (payable  through fiscal 2003). The first potential  earn-out payment is
payable during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2000.

The following table summarizes the adjustments  recorded against goodwill during
the three months ended December 31, 1999:

costs were  contemplated  at the time of acquisition.  In addition,  the Company
reversed $61 of the  relocation  accrual.  Refer to Note 4,  Accrued  Merger and
Restructuring  Costs and Expenses,  for further discussion  regarding the merger
plan.

Merger Costs and Expenses

The Company's  policy is to accrue  merger costs and expenses at the  commitment
date of an  integration  plan if certain  criteria  under  EITF 94-3,  Liability
Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an
Activity ("EITF 94-3") or 95-14, Recognition of Liabilities in Anticipation of a
Business Combination ("EITF 95-14"), are met. Merger costs and expenses recorded
at the  commitment  date  primarily  include  charges for  involuntary  employee
termination  costs,  branch shut-down costs,  lease termination costs, and other
exit costs.

If the  criteria  described  in EITF 94-3 or EITF 95-14 are not met, the Company
records merger costs and expenses as incurred. Merger costs expensed as incurred
include the following: (1) costs to pack and move inventory from one facility to
another or within a facility in a  consolidation  of facilities,  (2) relocation
costs paid to employees in relation to an  acquisition  accounted  for under the
pooling-of-interests  method of  accounting,  (3) systems or  training  costs to
convert the acquired companies to the current existing  information  system, (4)
training costs related to conforming the acquired companies operational policies
to that of the Company's operational policies,  and (5) direct transaction costs
primarily consisting of investment banking, legal,  accounting,  and filing fees
related to mergers with the Company. In addition,  amounts incurred in excess of
the original amount accrued at the commitment date are expensed as incurred.

Merger costs and expenses for the three months ended  December 31, 1999 included
$399 of merger charges expensed as incurred,  which primarily  related to branch
shutdown  costs.  In  addition,  the company  reversed  $413 of merger costs and
expenses  into income,  which  related to an over accrual for lease  termination
costs and an over accrual for employee  termination  benefits.  Refer to Note 4,
Accrued  Merger and  Restructuring  Costs and Expenses,  for further  discussion
regarding the merger plan.

Restructuring Costs and Expenses

Restructuring  costs and expenses  for the three months ended  December 31, 1999
included  $2,590 of charges  that were  expensed as  incurred,  which  primarily
relate to other exit  costs.  Other exit  costs  include  costs to pack and move
inventory, costs to set up new facilities,  employee relocation costs, and other
related  facility  closure costs.  In addition,  the company  reversed $1,001 of
restructuring  costs  into  income,  which  related to over  accruals  for lease
termination costs and involuntary  employee  termination costs. Refer to Note 4,
Accrued  Merger and  Restructuring  Costs and Expenses,  for further  discussion
regarding the restructuring plan.

Other

During the three  months  ended  December  31,  1999,  the Company  performed an
analysis  and  reversed  $1,221 of a previously  recorded  operating  tax charge
reserve.


NOTE 4 - ACCRUED MERGER AND RESTRUCTURING COSTS AND EXPENSES

Summary of Accrued Merger Costs and Expenses

In connection with the consummation of business  combinations,  management often
develops  formal  plans  to exit  certain  activities,  involuntarily  terminate
employees, and relocate employees of the acquired companies.  Management's plans
to exit an activity  often include  identification  of duplicate  facilities for
closure  and   identification  of  facilities  for   consolidation   into  other
facilities.

Generally,  completion of the integration  plans will occur within one year from
the date in which the plans were formalized and adopted by management.  However,
intervening events occurring prior to completion of the plan, such as subsequent
acquisitions or system conversion issues,  can significantly  impact a plan that
had been previously established. Such intervening events may cause modifications
to the plans and are accounted for on a  prospective  basis.  At the end of each
quarter,  management  reevaluates  its  integration  plans and adjusts  previous
estimates.

As part of the  integration  plans,  certain costs are recognized at the date in
which the plan is formalized and adopted by management  (commitment date). These
costs are  generally  related to employee  terminations  and  relocation,  lease
terminations,  and branch shutdown. In addition, there are certain costs that do
not meet the criteria for accrual at the commitment date and are expensed as the
plan  is  implemented  (refer  to  Note  3,  Charges  Included  in  General  and
Administrative  Expenses).  Involuntary  employee termination costs are employee
severance  costs and termination  benefits.  Lease  termination  costs are lease
cancellation  fees and forfeited  deposits.  Branch shutdown costs include costs
related to facility closure costs. Employee relocation costs are moving costs of
employees  of an  acquired  company  in  transactions  accounted  for  under the
purchase method of accounting.

Accrued  merger  costs and  expenses,  classified  as  accrued  expenses  in the
accompanying  consolidated  balance sheet, were $1,951 at December 31, 1999. The
discussion  and roll  forward of the accrued  merger  costs and  expenses  below
summarize  the  significant  and  nonsignificant  integration  plans  adopted by
management for business combinations  accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting and pooling-of-interests method of accounting.  Integration plans are
considered to be significant if the charge  recorded to establish the accrual is
in excess of 5% of consolidated pretax income.

Significant Pooling-of-Interests Business Combination Plan

The Company  formalized  and  adopted an  integration  plan in December  1997 to
integrate the operations of S&W X-Ray,  Inc. ("S&W") with the Imaging  Business.
The  following  accrued  merger  costs  and  expenses  were  recognized  in  the
accompanying  consolidated  statements of operations at the  commitment  date. A

As of December 31, 1999, all of the employees have been  terminated,  and all of
the seven  identified  distribution  facilities  had been shut down.  During the
three months  ended  December 31,  1999,  management  determined  that all costs
related to the merger plan had been incurred except for lease  termination costs
for one location that will be paid through  fiscal 2002.  Management was able to
renegotiate   lease  buy  outs  for  all  locations  except  one.  In  addition,
settlements were made with several  employees for involuntary  termination costs
which  caused  actual  costs to be less  than  management's  original  estimate.
Therefore,  an  adjustment  of $413 was made to  reverse  the  over  accrual  of
involuntary  employee  termination costs and lease termination  costs.  Refer to
Note 3, Charges Included in General and Administrative Expenses.

</TABLE>

The  Imaging  Business  acquired  Gilbert  X-Ray,  Inc.  in  September  1998 and
management  formalized and adopted two separate integration plans in fiscal 1999
to integrate the operations of the acquired company.  Approximately  $670 of the
$1,040  accrued  merger  costs and expenses at December 31, 1999 relate to these
integration  plans.  Relocation  costs are for five employees of which three had
been  relocated as of December 31, 1999.  During the three months ended December
31, 1999,  management  determined that the remaining other people  identified in
the integration plans would not be relocated.  Therefore,  a goodwill adjustment
of $61 was made to reverse the accrual for  relocation  for these two employees.
Management expects to pay out the remaining  relocation costs accrual during the
fourth quarter of fiscal 2000.  Involuntary employee termination costs are costs
for  twenty-six  employees,  including  severance  and  benefits,  who represent
duplicative functions in the accounting,  purchasing,  human resource, warehouse
and computer  support  departments at locations  where  facilities were combined
into existing  facilities.  As of December 31, 1999,  nine  employees  have been
terminated.  Management identified eight distribution facilities to be closed in
which all operations would be ceased due to duplicative functions,  all of which
had been shut down by December 31, 1999.  Included in branch  shutdown costs are
costs related to contractual  obligations  that existed prior to the merger date
but will provide no ongoing value to the Company.  Management  anticipates these
integration  plans  will  be  completed  during  fiscal  2000;  however,   lease
termination payments will extend through fiscal 2003.

In addition,  the Imaging Business  acquired South Jersey X-Ray, Inc. in October
1998, and management formalized and adopted an integration plan during the three
months ended June 30, 1999 to integrate the operations of the acquired  company.
Approximately  $370 of the $1,040  accrued merger costs and expenses at December
31, 1999 relate to this integration plan. As of December 31, 1999, all locations
have been shut down and all employees  were  terminated as a result of the plan.
However, lease termination payments will extend through fiscal 2004.

Summary of Accrued Restructuring Costs and Expenses

Primarily  as a result  of the  impact  of the Gulf  South  merger,  in order to
improve  customer  service,  reduce costs,  and improve  productivity  and asset
utilization,  the Company  decided to realign and  consolidate  its  operations.
Accordingly,  the Company began  implementing  a  restructuring  plan during the
fourth  quarter  of  fiscal  1998  which  impacted  all  divisions  ("Plan  A").
Subsequently,  the Company adopted a second  restructuring plan during the first
quarter of fiscal 1999 related to the Gulf South division  ("Plan B") to further
consolidate its operations.

During fiscal 1999, information system programming delays occurred that were not
anticipated  at the time the  integration  plan was  finalized  and  adopted  by
management.  As a  result,  the  information  system  conversion  dates  for all
locations were delayed.  The accruals for involuntary  employee  termination and
branch shutdown costs have not been paid in full as of December 31, 1999 because
the  information  system  conversion  must be completed  prior to  consolidating
distribution facilities. The lease termination costs will be paid through fiscal
2002.

During the three  months  ended  December  31,  1999,  management  negotiated  a
settlement on one lease which caused actual lease  termination  costs to be less
than management's  original  estimate.  In addition,  settlements were made with
several employees for involuntary  employee termination costs that caused actual
costs to be less than management's original estimate.  Therefore,  an adjustment
of $85 was made to the lease termination costs accrual and an adjustment of $892
was made to the involuntary  employee  termination  costs accrual to reflect the
change in estimated  costs and expenses.  Although all  locations  identified in
Plan A and Plan B have been shutdown, costs are still being incurred relating to
these branch shutdowns.  Management will review the branch shutdown costs during
the fourth  quarter of fiscal 200 to determine if an adjustment  should be made.
Refer to Note 3, Charges Included in General and Administrative Expenses.

Plan A

As of December 31, 1999, all employees were  terminated as a result of the plan,
with the related  severance  payments to be made in the fourth quarter of fiscal
2000. As of December 31, 1999,  all of the  locations  were merged into existing
locations.

Plan B

As of December  31, 1999,  all of the six  locations  had been shut down.  As of
September 30, 1999, all employees were  terminated as a result of the plan, with
the related severance payments to be made in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2000.

During the second  quarter of fiscal 2000,  management  evaluated  the Company's
overall cost structure and implemented cost reductions in order to meet internal
profitability   targets.   In  addition,   management  decided  to  improve  its
distribution  model and relocate the  corporate  office for the GSMS division to
Jacksonville,  Florida where the corporate  offices for the DI and PSS divisions
exist. The Company began  implementing the restructuring  plan during the second
quarter of fiscal 2000, which impacted all divisions ("Plan C").
Accrued  restructuring  costs  and  expenses  related  to Plan C were  $1,950 at
December 31, 1999.

Plan C

Plan C involved the shutdown of the Jackson, MS, corporate office of Gulf South,
merging  14  operating  locations  into  existing  locations,   and  eliminating
overlapping  regional  operations and management  functions.  As of December 31,
1999,  11  locations  were merged  into  existing  locations  and the Gulf South
corporate office had been integrated with the Jacksonville corporate office. The
plan  also  included  the  termination  of  approximately   250  employees  from
operations,  administration,  and  management.  As of  December  31,  1999,  209
employees were terminated as a result of the plan.

During the three  months  ended  December  31,  1999,  management  negotiated  a
settlement on one lease which caused actual lease  termination  costs to be less
than management's original estimate. In addition, settlements were made with two
employees for involuntary  employee  termination costs which caused actual costs
to be less than management's original estimate.  Therefore, an adjustment of $22
was made to the lease termination costs accrual and an adjustment of $2 was made
to the involuntary  employee termination costs accrual to reflect the changes in
estimated costs and expenses.  Refer to Note 3, Charges  Included in General and
Administrative Expenses.

NOTE 8 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company has  employment  agreements  with certain  executive  officers which
provide that in the event of their  termination  or  resignation,  under certain
conditions,  the Company may be required to continue salary payments and provide
insurance  for a period  ranging  from 12 to 36 months  for the Chief  Executive
Officer and from 3 to 12 months for other executives and to repurchase a portion
or all of the shares of common stock held by the executives upon their demand at
the fair  market  value at the time of  repurchase.  The  period of  salary  and
insurance  continuation  and the  level of stock  repurchases  are  based on the
conditions of the termination or resignation.

PSS and certain of its current  officers and directors  were named as defendants
in a purported  securities  class action lawsuit filed on or about May 28, 1998.
The  allegations  are based  upon a decline  in the PSS  stock  price  following
announcements  by PSS in May 1998  regarding the Gulf South merger that resulted
in  earnings  below  analyst's  expectations.  The  Company  believes  that  the
allegations  contained in the complaints are without merit and intends to defend
vigorously against the claims.  However,  the lawsuit is in the earliest stages,
and there can be no assurances  that this litigation will ultimately be resolved
on terms that are favorable to the Company.

Although the Company does not manufacture products,  the distribution of medical
supplies and equipment entails inherent risks of product liability.  The Company
has not  experienced  any  significant  product  liability  claims and maintains
product  liability  insurance  coverage.  In  addition,  the Company is party to
various legal and  administrative  proceedings  and claims arising in the normal
course of business.  While any  litigation  contains an element of  uncertainty,
management  believes  that the outcome of any  proceedings  or claims  which are
pending or known to be threatened will not have a material adverse effect on the
Company's consolidated financial position, liquidity, or results of operations.

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

38  imaging   distribution   service  centers  with  approximately  900  service
specialists  and 250 sales  representatives  ("Imaging  Business")  serving over
17,000 customer sites in 42 states.  The Imaging Business' primary market is the
approximately  10,000  hospitals  and  other  alternate-site  imaging  companies
operating approximately 40,000 office sites throughout the United States.

Through its wholly owned  subsidiary Gulf South Medical Supply,  Inc.  ("GSMS"),
the Company is a leading  national  distributor of medical  supplies and related
products to the long-term  care industry in the United States based on revenues,
number of sales  representatives,  and number of service centers. GSMS currently

products  to the  physician  office and  hospital  markets in  Belgium,  France,
Germany, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands.


INDUSTRY

According to industry estimates,  the United States medical supply and equipment
segment of the health care industry represents a $34 billion market comprised of
distribution  of medical  products to  hospitals,  home  health  care  agencies,
imaging  centers,   physician  offices,   dental  offices,  and  long-term  care
facilities.  The Company's primary focus includes  distribution to the physician
office,  providers of imaging  services,  and  long-term  care  facilities  that
comprise $14 billion or approximately 40% of the overall market.

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                     AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued)

Revenues of the medical  products  distribution  industry  are  estimated  to be
growing as a result of a growing  and aging  population,  increased  health care
awareness,  proliferation  of medical  technology  and  testing,  and  expanding
third-party insurance coverage. In addition,  the physician market is benefiting
from the shift of procedures and diagnostic  testing from hospitals to alternate
sites,  particularly  physician  offices,  despite a migration of  significantly
lower hospital medical product pricing into the physician office market.

The  health  care  industry  is  subject  to  extensive  government  regulation,
licensure,  and operating  procedures.  National health care reform has been the
subject of a number of legislative  initiatives by Congress.  Additionally,  the
cost of a significant  portion of medical care in the United States is funded by
government and private insurance programs.  In recent years,  government-imposed
limits on  reimbursement  of hospitals,  long-term  care  facilities,  and other
health care providers have impacted  spending  budgets in certain markets within
the medical products industry.  Recently, Congress has passed radical changes to
reimbursements  for nursing  homes and home care  providers.  The  industry  has
struggled  with these  changes and the ability of providers,  distributors,  and
manufacturers to adopt to the changes is not yet determined.  These changes also
effect some distributors who directly bill the government for these providers.

Over the past few years,  the health care  industry  has  undergone  significant
consolidation.  Physician provider groups, long-term care facilities,  and other
alternate-site  providers along with the hospitals continue to consolidate.  The
consolidation  creates new and larger  customers.  However,  the majority of the
market serviced by the Company remains a large number of small customers with no
single customer exceeding 10% of the consolidated  Company's revenues.  However,
the Long-Term Care Business depends on a limited number of large customers for a
significant  portion of its net sales and  approximately  37.1% of the Long-Term
Care Business  revenues for the three months ended December 31, 1999 represented
sales to its top five customers.  Growth in the Long-Term Care Business, as well
as  consolidation  of the health  care  industry,  may  increase  the  Company's
dependence on large customers.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The  following  is  management's  discussion  and  analysis  of the  results  of
operations for the three and nine months ended December 31, 1999 and 1998.


tHREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED December 31, 1999 VersUs three AND NINE months ended
December 31, 1998

Net Sales. Net sales for the three months ended December 31, 1999 totaled $462.1
million,  an increase of $62.6  million,  or 15.7%,  over the three months ended
December 31, 1998 total of $399.5  million.  Net sales for the nine months ended
December 31, 1999 totaled $1,351.1  million,  an increase of $196.6 million,  or
17.0%,  over the nine months ended December 31, 1998 total of $1,154.5  million.
The increase in sales can be attributed to (i) net sales from the acquisition of
companies  during fiscal years 1999 and 2000  accounted  for as purchases;  (ii)
internal  sales  growth  of  centers  operating  at least two  years;  (iii) the
Company's  focus on  diagnostic  equipment  sales;  and (iv)  incremental  sales
generated in connection with exclusive and semi-exclusive vendor relationships.

                    PSS WORLD MEDICAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                     AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued)

For the three months ended December 31, 1999, net sales contribution from
acquisitions totaled approximately $1.9 million, $36.3 million, and $9.3 million
for the Physician Supply, Imaging, and Long-Term Care Businesses,  respectively.
For the nine months ended December 31, 1999, net sales  contribution  from
acquisitions totaled approximately $6.1 million,  $133.7 million, and
$25.7 million for the Physician Supply, Imaging, and Long-Term Care  Businesses,
respectively. These amounts reflect the incremental  impact of acquisitions
completed  during fiscal years 1999 and 2000 on the comparable three and nine
month results.

Gross Profit.  Gross profit for the three months ended December 31, 1999 totaled
$124.1 million,  an increase of $14.4 million,  or 13.1%,  over the three months
December  31,  1998 total of $109.7  million.  Gross  profit for the nine months
ended December 31, 1999 totaled $362.2 million, an increase of $50.4 million, or
16.2%, over the nine months ended December 31, 1998 total of $311.8 million. The
increase in gross profit dollars is primarily  attributable  to the sales growth
described  above.  Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 26.9% and 27.4%
for the three months ended December 31, 1999 and 1998,  respectively,  and 26.8%
and 27.0% for the nine months ended  December  31, 1999 and 1998,  respectively.
Although there has been considerable gross margin pressure from several industry
environmental  factors,  as well as internal  pressure from an increasing mix of
Imaging  Business  revenues  at lower  margins,  the  Company  has  successfully
maintained  its  overall  gross  margins.  Gross  margin  as a percentage  of
sales increased due to (i) an  increase  in the  sales mix of higher margin
diagnostic  equipment  and service,  (ii) an increase in sales of higher margin
private  label  products,  (iii) the effect of  negotiated  lower product
purchasing  costs which  resulted,  and (iv) the  elimination  of lower margin
acquired  Imaging Business  revenues. This is offset by the expansion of imaging
revenues with lower gross profit margins and lower sequential margins in the
Long-Term Care Business.

Beginning  in fiscal  1999 and  continuing  into  fiscal  2000,  the Company has
experienced  margin  pressures in the Long-Term Care Business as a result of its
large chain customers renegotiating prices due to the implementation of PPS. The
Company  expects  this trend to continue in the  Long-Term  Care  Business.  The
Company added a net addition of approximately 50 sales representatives in fiscal
1999 to develop sales to independent and regional customers to offset the impact
of decreased margins in its chain customer sales.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses for the
three months ended December 31, 1999 totaled $62.3 million,  an increase of $8.4
million,  or 15.6%, from the three months ended December 31, 1998 total of $53.9
million.  General and  administrative  expense as a percentage  of net sales was
13.5% for the comparable three-month period. General and administrative expenses
for the nine months ended December 31, 1999 totaled $187.0 million,  an increase
of $26.3 million,  or 16.4%,  from the nine months ended December 31, 1998 total
of $160.7  million.  General and  administrative  expense as a percentage of net
sales was 13.8% and 13.9% for the comparable nine-month period.

In  addition  to  typical  general  and  administrative  expenses,  this  income
statement  caption includes  charges related to merger  activity,  restructuring
activity, and other special items (refer to Note 3 of the accompanying condensed
consolidated  financial statements for further discussion of these charges). The

                     AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued)

Selling Expenses.  Selling expenses for the three months ended December 31, 1999
totaled $38.8  million,  an increase of $6.3 million,  or 19.4 %, over the three
months ended  December  31, 1998 total of $32.5  million.  Selling  expense as a
percentage  of net sales was  approximately  8.4% and 8.1% for the three  months
ended December 31, 1999 and 1998,  respectively.  Selling  expenses for the nine
months  ended  December 31, 1999 totaled  $109.6  million,  an increase of $20.6
million,  or 23.1%,  over the nine months ended December 31, 1998 total of $89.0
million. Selling expense as a percentage of net sales was approximately 8.1% and
7.7% for the nine months  ended  December 31, 1999 and 1998,  respectively.  The
Company utilizes a variable  commission  plan,  which pays commissions  based on
gross profit as a percentage of net sales. During the later part of fiscal 1999,
sales commissions as a percent of net sales increased due (i) to the addition of
new sales representatives which are currently paid salary but in the future will
convert to a variable commission to increase or replace existing low performance
sales representatives,  (ii) acquisition of sales representatives at the Imaging
Business that are in transition to the Company's  commission plan, and (iii) the
short-term  impact of the Long-Term Care Business  changing of its  compensation
plan for its sales representatives.

Operating Income.  Operating income for the three months ended December 31, 1999
totaled $22.9 million, a decrease of $0.4million, or 1.7%, over the three months
ended  December 31, 1998 total of 23.3  million.  As a percentage  of net sales,
operating  income  decreased  to 5.0% from 5.8% from the  comparable  prior year
period primarily due to the impact of the factores described above. Operating
income for the nine months  ended  December 31, 1999 totaled $65.6 million,  an
increase of $3.5 million, or 5.6%, over the nine months ended December  31,
1998  total of  $62.1  million.  As a  percentage  of net  sales, operating
income  decreased  to 4.9% from 5.4% from the  comparable prior year period
primarily due to the factors described above.

Interest Expense.  Interest expense for the three months ended December 31, 1999
totaled $4.1  million,  an increase of $1.4  million,  or 51.9%,  over the three
months ended December 31, 1998 total of $2.7 million.  Interest  expense for the
nine months ended December 31, 1999 totaled $10.4  million,  an increase of $1.6
million,  or 18.2%,  over the nine months ended  December 31, 1998 total of $8.8
million.  The increase in interest  expense for the three and nine month periods
is primarily attributable to an increase of outstanding debt under the revolving
credit facility.

Interest and Investment  Income.  Interest and  investment  income for the three
months ended December 31, 1999 totaled $0.4 million, a decrease of $0.1 million,
or 20%,  over the three  months ended  December 31, 1998 total of $0.5  million.
Interest  and  investment  income for the nine months  ended  December  31, 1999
totaled $1.3 million, a decrease of $2.4 million, or 64.9%, over the nine months
ended  December  31,  1998  total of $3.7  million.  These  decreases  primarily
resulted  from  lower  levels  of  invested  capital  due to the use of cash and
investments to fund capital expenditures and business acquisitions during fiscal
1999.

Other Income.  Other income for the three months ended December 31, 1999 totaled
$1.6 million, an decrease of $0.2 million, or 11.1%, over the three months ended
December 31, 1998 total of $1.8 million.  Other income for the nine months ended
December 31, 1999 totaled $9.9 million,  an increase of $6.1 million, or 160.5%,
over the nine months ended  December 31, 1998 total of $3.8  million.  Normally,
other  income  primarily  consists of finance  charges on customer  accounts and
financing performance  incentives.  Included in other income for the nine months
ended December 31, 1999 was  approximately  $6.5 million relating to a favorable
medical x-ray film antitrust settlement claim.

Provision  for Income  Taxes.  Provision  for income  taxes for the three months
ended  December 31, 1999 totaled $8.9 million,  a decrease of $0.2  million,  or
2.2%,  over the three months ended December 31, 1998 total of $9.1 million.  The
effective  income  tax rate was  42.8% and  39.7%  for the  three  months  ended
December 31, 1999 and 1998,  respectively.  Provision  for income taxes for nine
months  ended  December  31, 1999  totaled  $27.3  million,  an increase of $2.6
million,  or 10.5%,  over the nine months ended December 31, 1998 total of $24.7
million. The

effective income tax rate was 41.1% and 40.6% for the nine months ended December
31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The effective tax rate is generally higher than
the Company's  statutory rate due to the to the nondeductible  nature of certain
merger related costs and the impact of the Company's foreign subsidiary.

Net Income.  Net income for the three  months  ended  December  31, 1999 totaled
$11.9 million, a decrease of $1.9 million, or 13.8%, over the three months ended
December  31, 1998 total of $13.8  million.  As a percentage  of net sales,  net
income  decreased  to 2.6%  from  3.5%  for the  comparable  prior  year  period
primarily  due to the factors  described  above.  Net income for the nine months
ended December 31, 1999 totaled $39.0 million,  an increase of $3.0 million,  or
8.3%, over the nine months ended December 31, 1998 total of $36.0 million.  As a
percentage  of net  sales,  net  income  decreased  to 2.9%  from  3.1%  for the
comparable prior year period primarily due to the factors described above.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As the Company's business grows, its cash and working capital  requirements will
also  continue to increase as a result of the need to finance  acquisitions  and
anticipated  growth of the  Company's  operations.  This  growth  will be funded
through a combination of cash flow from operations,  revolving credit borrowings
and proceeds from any future public offerings.

Net cash  used in  operating  activities was $(7.8) million and $(10.6) million
for  the  nine  months  ended  December  31,  1999  and  1998, respectively.
Cash flows from operations  during the three months ended December
31, 1999 were impacted by approximately $40.0 million of additional  inventory
carried by PSS, DI and  GSMS  due to  Year  2000  build-up.  In  addition,
accounts  receivable increased  approximately $20 million primarily due to
disruptions  caused by the transition   of  the  Gulf  South   administrative
offices  and  functions  to Jacksonville, FL. The Company expects normalization
of these balances by March 31, 2000.

Net cash used in investing  activities was $(77.6)  million and $0.2 million
for the three months ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. These funds
were primarily  utilized to finance the  acquisition of new service  centers and
capital  expenditures.  Cash flows from investing activities for the nine months
ended  December 31, 1998,  include  approximately $74.6 million of net proceeds
from sales and  maturities  of  marketable  securities.  The increase in capital
expenditures  in fiscal years 1999 and 2000 over prior fiscal years is primarily
attributable to new computer systems being implemented  across all the Company's
divisions.

Net cash  provided  by (used in)  financing  activities  was $75.8 million  and
$(12.5)  million  for  the  nine  months  ended  December  31,  1999  and  1998,
respectively.  During the nine  months  ended  December  31,  1999,  the Company
borrowed  $46.0  million from its  revolving  credit  facility to fund  business
acquisitions and $30.0 million for working capital purposes described above in
cash used in operating activities.

The  Company  had working  capital of $420.2  million  and $356.6  million as of
December 31, 1999 and April 2, 1999, respectively.  Accounts receivable,  net of
allowances,  were  $322.3  million and $273.0  million at December  31, 1999 and
April 2,  1999,  respectively.  The  average  number of days  sales in  accounts
receivable  outstanding was approximately 59.5 and 56.0 days for the nine months
ended  December  31,  1999  (annualized)  and the  year  ended  April  2,  1999,
respectively.  For the nine  months  ended  December  31,  1999,  the  Company's
Physician  Supply,  Imaging,  and Long-Term Care  Businesses had annualized days
sales in  accounts  receivable  of  approximately  55.7,  52.7,  and 77.6  days,
respectively.

Inventories  were $198.2  million and $153.6 million as of December 31, 1999 and
April 2, 1999,  respectively.  The Company had inventory  turnover of 7.5x and
8.1x times for the nine months ended  December 31, 1999  (annualized)  and the
year ended April 2, 1999,  respectively.  For the nine months ended December 31,
1999, the Company's Physician Supply, Imaging, and Long-Term Care Businesses had
annualized inventory turnover of 7.6x, 7.7x, and 7.2, respectively.

(a)  EBIT represents income before income taxes plus interest expense.
(b)  EBITDA represents EBIT plus depreciation and amortization.  EBITDA is not a
     measure of  performance or financial  condition  under  generally  accepted
     accounting  principles  ("GAAP").  EBITDA is not intended to represent cash
     flow from operations and should not be considered as an alternative measure
     to income from  operations or net income  computed in accordance with GAAP,
     as an indicator of the Company's operating  performance,  as an alternative
     to cash flow from operating  activities,  or as a measure of liquidity.  In
     addition,  EBITDA does not provide  information  regarding  cash flows from
     investing  and  financing  activities  which are integral to assessing  the
     effects  on the  Company's  financial  position  and  liquidity  as well as
     understanding the Company's  historical  growth.  The Company believes that
     EBITDA is a standard measure of liquidity commonly reported and widely used
     by  analysts,  investors,  and other  interested  parties in the  financial
     markets.  However, not all companies calculate EBITDA using the same method
     and the EBITDA  numbers  set forth  above may not be  comparable  to EBITDA
     reported by other companies.
(c)  Adjusted  EBITDA   represents  EBITDA  plus  unusual  charges  included  in
     continuing  operations  less  cash paid for  unusual  charges  included  in
     continuing operations.
(d)  EBITDA coverage represents the ratio of EBITDA to interest expense.
(e)  EBITDA margin represents the ratio of EBITDA to net sales.
(f)  Adjusted  EBITDA  coverage  represents  the  ratio of  Adjusted  EBITDA  to
     interest expense.
(g)  Adjusted  EBITDA  margin  represents  the ratio of  Adjusted  EBITDA to net
     sales.
(h)  The three and nine  months  ended  December  31,  1998  exclude  $1,814 and
     $4,323, respectively, of information systems accelerated depreciation.

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                     AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued)

On October 7, 1997, the Company issued, in a private offering under Rule 144A of
the Securities Act of 1933, an aggregate  principal  amount of $125.0 million of
its 8.5% senior  subordinated  notes due in 2007 (the "Private  Notes") with net
proceeds to the Company of $119.5  million after  deduction for offering  costs.
The Private Notes are unconditionally  guaranteed on a senior subordinated basis
by all of the Company's domestic subsidiaries. On February 10, 1998, the Company
closed its offer to exchange  the Private  Notes for senior  subordinated  notes
(the "Notes") of the Company with  substantially  identical terms to the Private
Notes  (except  that the Notes do not  contain  terms with  respect to  transfer
restrictions).  Interest on the Notes accrues from the date of original issuance
and is payable semiannually on April 1 and October 1 of each year, commencing on
April  1,  1998,  at a rate  of 8.5%  per  annum.  The  semiannual  payments  of
approximately  $5.3  million  will be funded by the  operating  cash flow of the
Company.  No other  principal  payments on the Notes are required  over the next
five years.  The Notes contain certain  restrictive  covenants that, among other
things, limit the Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness.  Provided,
however, that no event of default exist, additional indebtedness may be incurred
if the Company  maintains a  consolidated  fixed charge  coverage  ratio,  after
giving effect to such additional indebtedness, of greater than 2.0 to 1.0.

On February 11, 1999, the Company entered into a $140.0 million senior revolving
credit  facility with a syndicate of financial  institutions  with  NationsBank,
N.A. as principal agent.  Borrowings under the credit facility are available for
working capital, capital expenditures,  and acquisitions, and are secured by the
common stock and assets of the Company and its subsidiaries. The credit facility
expires February 10, 2004 and borrowings bear interest at certain floating rates
selected by the Company at the time of borrowing.  The credit facility  contains
certain  affirmative  and  negative  covenants,  the most  restrictive  of which
require  maintenance of a maximum  leverage ratio of 3.5 to 1.0,  maintenance of
consolidated  net worth of $337.0  million,  and  maintenance of a minimum fixed
charge coverage ratio of 2.0 to 1.0. In addition, the covenants limit additional
indebtedness  and  asset  dispositions,  require  majority  lender  approval  on
acquisitions  with a total  purchase  price  greater  than  $75.0  million,  and
restrict payments of dividends.

On October 20, 1999, the Company  amended its $140.0  million  senior  revolving
credit facility to allow for repurchases of up to $50.0 million of the Company's
common stock through October 31, 2000. In addition,  the amendment  modified the
consolidated net worth maintenance covenant to reduce the $337.0 million minimum
compliance level by any repurchases made by the Company of its common stock.

The Company was in compliance with the debt covenants under the Notes and credit
facility as of December 31, 1999.

As of December 31, 1999,  the Company has not entered into any material  working
capital commitments that require funding. The Company believes that the expected
cash flows from operations,  available borrowing under the credit facility,  and
capital  markets  are  sufficient  to  meet  the  Company's  anticipated  future
requirements for working capital, capital expenditures, and acquisitions for the
foreseeable future.


Quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk

As of December 31, 1999,  the Company did not hold any  derivative  financial or
commodity instruments.  The Company is subject to interest rate risk and certain
foreign currency risk relating to its operations in Europe; however, the Company
does not  consider  its  exposure in such areas to be  material.  The  Company's
interest  rate risk is  related  to its Senior  Subordinated  Notes,  which bear
interest  at a fixed rate of 8.5%,  and  borrowings  under its Credit  Facility,
which bear interest at variable  rates, at the Company's  option,  at either the
lender's base rate plus 0.25% (8.5% at December 31, 1999) or LIBOR plus 1.25% (a
weighted average of 7.3% at December 31, 1999).

to identify a year in a date field within a program (e.g., "98" or "02").  These
programs or hardware may fail to distinguish  dates in the "2000s" from dates in
the "1900s" due to the two digit date fields. If uncorrected,  such programs and
hardware with date sensitive operations may malfunction or fail to operate after
1999 (and possibly before the year 2000 in some instances).

Company's Year 2000 Program and Systems

The Company has developed, and implemented,  a Year 2000 program to address both
information  technology  ("IT")  and  non-IT  systems.  The  Company's  business
applications  reside  on  a  group  of  mini  computers,  servers  and  personal
computers.  The Company also uses laptop computers that serve as sales force and
service  technician  automation tools. The Company's IT systems include computer
and data network hardware, internally developed software, and software purchased
or  licensed  from  external  vendors.  The  Company's  non-IT  systems  include
equipment  which  uses  date-sensitive  embedded  technology.  Principal  non-IT
systems  include   telecommunications  and  warehouse  equipment.   The  Company
initiated a Year 2000  compliance  program  during May 1998, and the progress of
this  program has been  communicated  regularly  to the Audit  Committee  of the
Company's  Board of Directors.  The Company's  approach to address the Year 2000
compliance  program  included  the  following  phases:  inventory,   assessment,
planning, remediation, testing, and implementation, third party risk management,
and business continuity planning.

Company's State of Year 2000 Readiness

The Company  believes  that its  existing  systems are  substantially  Year 2000
compliant. The Company substantially completed inventory,  assessment, and plans
for  remediation  of its critical IT systems  during the quarter ended  December
1998.  Remediation  and testing of these critical  systems  included  upgrading,
replacing,  or  modifying  non-compliant   components,   and  was  substantially
completed  during  the  quarter  ended  March  1999.   Implementation  of  these
remediation  efforts is now substantially  complete,  and has been substantially
complete  since the quarter  ended June 1999. As a precaution  against  possible
errors or omissions to our remediation efforts, the Company tested substantially
all systems, critical and non-critical. These tests were substantially completed
in the quarter ended September 1999.

The Company has completed an inventory and assessment of its non-critical IT and
all non-IT systems.  Remediation  efforts of non-critical  systems have included
the development and  implementation  of ICONWeb,  a new enhanced  version of the
Physician Supply Business sales force automation  software,  and the remediation
of the Accuscan  software that Gulf South  provides its customers to monitor and
order   inventory.   The  new  ICONWeb   software,   which   includes   enhanced
functionality,  has been successfully implemented.  Remediated software has been
implemented  for  the  customers  currently  using  Accuscan.  The  Company  has
substantially completed inventories,  assessments,  planning , remediation,  and
testing of all other non-critical IT and all non-IT systems.

Costs for Company's Year 2000 Program

The total costs of addressing the Company's  Year 2000 readiness  issues are not
expected to be  material  to the  Company's  financial  condition  or results of
operations.  Since  initiation of its program in calendar year 1998, the Company
has  expensed  approximately  $2.0  million on a  worldwide  basis in costs on a
pretax  basis to address  its Year 2000  readiness  issues.  These  expenditures
include  information system replacement and embedded technology upgrade costs of
$0.4  million,  supplier and customer  compliance  costs of $0.2 million and all
other  costs  of  $1.4  million.  As of the  time of this  filing,  the  Company
currently  estimates  that all costs  necessary for addressing its internal Year
2000 readiness,  on a worldwide basis have been incurred and have not materially
changed from  original  estimates.  These costs have been  expensed as incurred,
except for  purchases  of  computer  hardware  and other  equipment,  which were
capitalized  as property and  equipment  and  depreciated  over the  equipment's
estimated  useful  lives in  accordance  with the  Company's  normal  accounting
policies.  All costs are being funded through  operating cash flows. No projects
material to the financial condition or results of operations of the Company have
been deferred or delayed as a result of the Year 2000  program.  A large part of
the Year 2000 effort has been accomplished  through the redeployment of existing
resources.  The cost of such redeployment or of internal management time has not
been specifically quantified.

Both internal and external resources were used to identify, correct and test the
Company's  systems for Year 2000  compliance.  A Year 2000  program  manager was
assigned to coordinate the Company's Year 2000 compliance  program at all of the
Company's   divisions.   To  assist  the   Company  in  meeting  its  Year  2000
responsibilities,   the  Company  has  contracted   with  external   consultants
specializing in Year 2000 readiness  assessments.  The goal of these consultants
was to assist the Company in evaluating  the Year 2000  programs,  processes and
progress of its U.S.  divisions,  and to help  identify any  remaining  areas of
effort advisable. The Company's original cost estimates for testing, third party
Year 2000  risks,  and  contingency  planning  were  revised  as a result of the
consultant's independent assessment of the scope of the Company's program. These
consultants  were engaged  through the end of calendar year 1999.  The Company's
Year 2000 efforts were assessed and reported to executive  management as part of
this ongoing  engagement.  In addition,  the Company  engaged its  attorneys and
other outside  consultants to assist or examine  selected  critical  areas.  The
Company  has  consulted  insurance   professionals  and  has  explored  possible
mitigation of Year 2000 risks through purchasing insurance.

Third Party Year 2000 Risks and Potential Worst Case Scenario

The  Company  could have been  adversely  affected  if  critical  manufacturers,
suppliers,  customers,  banks, payers,  utilities,  transportation companies, or
other business  partners  failed to properly  remediate their systems to achieve
Year 2000  compliance.  The Company  initiated  communications,  which  included
soliciting  written  responses  to   questionnaires,   inquiries  and  follow-up
meetings, with critical manufacturers,  suppliers,  customers and other business
partners to determine  the extent to which any Year 2000 issues  affecting  such
third  parties  would affect the  Company.  The Company  established  a plan for
ongoing monitoring of critical manufacturers,  suppliers,  customers,  and other
business partners during calendar year 1999.

The Company  was  subject to risk if  Government  or private  payers  (including
insurers) failed to become Year 2000 compliant and, therefore, be unable to make
full or timely  reimbursement  to the Company's  customers.  Since the Company's
Year 2000 plan is dependent in part upon these  suppliers,  customers  and other
key third parties being Year 2000 compliant,  there can be no assurance that the
Company's  efforts to assess third  parties'  Year 2000  readiness  were able to
prevent a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial position,
or results of operations in future periods should a significant  number of third
parties experience  business  disruptions as a result of their lack of Year 2000
compliance.  Additionally,  third party failures to adequately  address the Year
2000 issue could  significantly  disrupt the Company's  operations  and possibly
lead to litigation against the Company.  The costs and expenses  associated with
any such  failure  or  litigation,  or with any  disruptions  in the  economy in
general as a result of the Year 2000, are not presently estimable but could have
a material adverse effect on the Company's

business and results of operations.  Based on the  information  available at the
time of this filing, the Company does not know of any adverse affects or of Year
2000 failures of critical third parties.

Other Year 2000 Risks and Contingency Planing

Management  of the Company  believes that its Year 2000  compliance  program has
been effective in avoiding  significant  adverse  consequences  due to Year 2000
problems with its systems.  The Company  developed  contingency plans to address
potential  Year 2000  problems.  The Company  developed  and  executed  employee
awareness  plans to assist with the  implementation  of the Company's  Year 2000
efforts.  The  Company  alerted  customers  of their need to  address  Year 2000
problems, specifically their need to address risks associated with non-compliant
IT and  non-IT  equipment  that they may have been  relying  on. If the  Company
experienced  significant Year 2000 problems due to a failure in its systems or a
third party's systems, the Company would have reverted to interim manual methods
of conducting business.  It was not necessary for the Company to exercise any of
its contingency or disaster recovery plans.

Based on the information  available at the time of this filing,  the Company has
not  experienced  any  significant  Year 2000 related  issues that would have an
adverse effect on the Company's  business  operations  and financial  condition.
There can be no assurance,  however, that all potential Year 2000 related issues
have been discovered.

                            PART II OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1.       LEGAL PROCEEDINGS


PSS and certain of its current officers and directors are named as defendants in
a purported  securities  class action lawsuit  entitled Jack Hirsch v. PSS World
Medical,  Inc., et al., Civil Action No. 98-CV-502.  The action, which was filed
on or about May 28, 1998, is pending in the United States District Court for the
Middle  District of Florida,  Jacksonville  Division.  An amended  complaint was
filed on  December  11,  1998.  The  plaintiff  alleges,  for  himself and for a
purported class of similarly situated  stockholders who allegedly  purchased the
Company's  stock between  December 23, 1997 and May 8, 1998, that the defendants
engaged in violations of certain  provisions of the Exchange Act, and Rule 10b-5
promulgated  thereunder.  The  allegations  are based  upon a decline in the PSS
stock price  following  announcement by PSS in May 1998 regarding the Gulf South
merger that resulted in earnings  below  analyst's  expectations.  The plaintiff
seeks indeterminate damages, including costs and expenses. PSS believes that the
allegations  contained in the  complaint are without merit and intends to defend
vigorously  against the claims. The defendants filed their motions to dismiss on
January 25,  1999,  which are pending.  However,  the lawsuit is in the earliest
stages,  and there can be no assurance that this  litigation  will be ultimately
resolved on terms that are favorable to PSS.

Although PSS does not manufacture products, the distribution of medical supplies
and equipment  entails  inherent risks of product  liability.  PSS is a party to
various legal and  administrative  legal  proceedings  and claims arising in the
normal course of business.  However,  PSS has not  experienced  any  significant
product  liability claims and maintains product  liability  insurance  coverage.
While any litigation  contains an element of  uncertainty,  management  believes
that,  other than as discussed  above,  the outcome of any proceedings or claims
which are  pending or known to be  threatened  will not have a material  adverse
effect on the Company's consolidated financial position,  liquidity,  or results
of operations.

EXHIBIT 10.21

EXECUTION COPY

FIRST  AMENDMENT dated as of October 20, 1999 (this "First  Amendment"),  to the
Credit Agreement dated as of February 11, 1999 (the "Credit  Agreement"),  among
PSS World Medical,  Inc., a Florida  corporation (the  "Borrower"),  the several
lenders party to the Credit Agreement (the "Lenders") and Bank of America, N.A.,
formerly known as NationsBank,  N.A., as agent for the Lenders (the "Agent") and
as issuing lender.


         The  Borrower has  requested  the Agent and the Lenders to make certain
changes to the Credit Agreement.  The parties hereto have agreed, subject to the
terms and conditions hereof, to amend the Credit Agreement as provided herein.

         Capitalized  terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the
meanings  assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement (the Credit  Agreement,
as amended by, and  together  with,  this First  Amendment,  and as  hereinafter
amended,  modified,  extended or restated  from time to time,  being  called the
"Amended Agreement").

         Accordingly, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

         SECTION 1.01. Amendment to Section 1.1. The definition of "Consolidated
Net Worth" in Section 1.1 of the Credit  Agreement is hereby amended by deleting
the  period  at the end  thereof  and  adding  the  following  phrase to the end
thereof:

         ", but adding  thereto  amounts  paid by the  Borrower  with respect to
repurchases of common stock of the Borrower from any Person  pursuant to Section
7.7(d)."

         SECTION  1.02.  Amendment  to Section  7.7.  Section  7.7 of the Credit
Agreement  is hereby  amended  by  deleting  the period at the end of clause (c)
thereof and adding the following clause (d) to the end thereof:

         "and (d)  repurchases  of common stock of the Borrower from any Person,
other than  repurchases of common stock of the Borrower made pursuant to Section
7.7(c),  provided  (i) that the  aggregate  amount paid in all such  repurchases
pursuant to this clause (d) shall not exceed  $50,000,000 and (ii) that all such
repurchases shall occur no later than October 31, 2000."

         SECTION  1.03.  Representations  and  Warranties.  The Borrower  hereby
represents  and  warrants  to each  Lender and the Agent,  as  follows:  (a) The
representations  and warranties set forth in Section 5 of the Amended Agreement,
and in each other Credit Document, are true and correct in all material respects
on and as of the date hereof and on and as of the First Amendment Effective Date
(as  hereinafter  defined) with the same effect as if made on and as of the date
hereof or the First Amendment  Effective Date, as the case may be, except to the
extent such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier
date.

                  (b) Each of the Borrower  and the other  Credit  Parties is in
compliance  with all the terms and  conditions of the Amended  Agreement and the
other Credit  Documents on its part to be observed or performed  and no Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing.

                  (c) The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of
this First Amendment have been duly authorized by the Borrower.

                  (d) This First  Amendment  constitutes  the  legal,  valid and
binding  obligation of the Borrower,  enforceable  against it in accordance with
its terms.

                                       1
<PAGE>

(e) The  execution,  delivery  and  performance  by the  Borrower  of this First
Amendment  (i) do not (A) violate or conflict with any provision of its articles
or certificate of incorporation or bylaws or other  organizational  or governing
documents  of the  Borrower,  (B)  violate,  contravene  or  conflict  with  any
Requirement  of Law applicable to the Borrower or its  Properties,  (C) violate,
contravene or conflict with contractual provisions of, cause an event of default
under, or give rise to material increased, additional, accelerated or guaranteed
rights of the Borrower under, any indenture,  loan agreement,  mortgage, deed of

which it may be bound,  or (D) result in or  require  the  creation  of any Lien
(other than the Lien of the  Collateral  Documents)  upon or with respect to the
Borrower's  Properties and (ii) do not require any consents  under,  result in a
breach  of or  constitute  (alone  or with  notice  or  lapse of time or both) a
default or give rise to increased, additional,  accelerated or guaranteed rights
of any person under any such indenture, agreement or instrument.

         SECTION  1.04.   Effectiveness.   This  First  Amendment  shall  become
effective  only upon  satisfaction  of the following  conditions  precedent (the
first date upon which each such condition has been satisfied being herein called
