as follows:

     Section 1.  Amendment and Restatement.  The Existing Term Loan Agreement is
                 -------------------------

     Property Assets Under Construction, but only to the extent that an interest
     reserve has been established in connection therewith which is acceptable to
     the Administrative Agent) and interest expense attributable to Capitalized

     interest expense with respect to any Indebtedness in respect of which such
