     WHEREAS, the Note Indenture, as amended by the Third Supplemental

Loan Agreement set forth in Amendment No. 13 to Loan Agreement;

     NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual benefits accruing to
Creditors hereunder and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto do hereby agree
as follows:

     1. DEFINITIONS
        -----------

         Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein are

     2. AMENDMENT
        ---------

     Section 1.27 of the Intercreditor Agreement is hereby amended to increase
the reference to $23,000,000 in such section by $10,000,000 to $33,000,000, so
that, as amended hereby, such section reads in its entirety as follows:

     1.27 "Revolving Loan Priority Amount" shall mean the sum of (a) (i) the
outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loan Debt not to exceed $33,000,000 in

     3. OTHER
        -----

     3.1 Governing Law. The validity, interpretation and enforcement of this
First Amendment and any dispute arising out of the relationship between the
parties hereto whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise, shall be governed
by the internal laws of the State of New York but excluding any principles of
conflicts of law or other rule of law that would cause the application of the
law of any jurisdiction other than the laws of the State of New York.

     3.2 Effect of this First Amendment. Except as expressly set forth herein,
no other amendments, consents, changes or modifications to the Intercreditor
Agreement are intended or implied, and in all other respects the Intercreditor
Agreement is hereby specifically ratified and confirmed by all parties hereto as
of the effective date hereof. To the extent of conflict between the terms of
this First Amendment and the Intercreditor Agreement, the terms of this First
Amendment shall control. The Intercreditor Agreement and this First Amendment
shall be read and construed as one agreement.

     3.3 Severability. The parties hereto agree that this First Amendment is an
amendment of the Intercreditor Agreement; provided, however, that if in
contravention of the intention of parties hereto, any provision of this First
Amendment is rendered invalid or unenforceable as a matter of law, the parties
agree that such provision shall be inapplicable to the extent of such invalidity
without affecting the validity or enforceability of the remainder of the
Intercreditor Agreement, as amended by this First Amendment, which shall be
given effect so far as possible.

                [REMAINDER OF THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK]
