                             PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS

          A. The Borrower, the Existing Conduit Lenders, the Existing Committed
Lenders, the Existing Funding Agents and the Administrative Agent are parties to
that certain Receivables Loan Agreement dated as of February 27, 2003 (the
"Receivables Loan Agreement"). Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined
herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Receivables Loan
Agreement.

          B. The parties hereto have agreed to add the New Conduit Lenders, the
New Committed Lenders and the New Funding Agents as parties to the Receivables
Loan Agreement as described herein. In connection therewith, the Existing
Conduit Lenders will assign a portion of the outstanding Loans held by them to
the Assignees (as defined below) such that, from and after such assignment, the
percentage of the outstanding Loans held by each Lender Group will be equal to
its Lender Group Percentage (determined after giving effect to the changes to
the Conduit Lending Limits contemplated herein).

          C. In addition, the parties hereto have agreed to amend the
Receivables Loan Agreement on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.



          NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises set forth above, and
other good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which is
hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

          SECTION 1. Addition of New Lender Groups.

          (a) Each of the parties hereto agrees that, effective as of the
Effective Date (as defined in Section 3 below), (i) Schedule I to the
Receivables Loan Agreement shall be amended in its entirety to read as set forth
on Schedule I attached hereto, (ii) each New Conduit Lender will be a party to
the Receivables Loan Agreement as a Conduit Lender having a Conduit Lending
Limit as set forth on such new Schedule I, (iii) each New Committed Lender will
be a party to the Receivables Loan Agreement as a Committed Lender having a
Commitment as set forth on such new Schedule I, (iv) each New Funding Agent will
be a party to the Receivables Loan Agreement as a Funding Agent for the new
Lender Group specified on such new Schedule I, (v) the Conduit Lending Limit of
each Existing Conduit Lender shall be reduced to the amount specified on such
new Schedule I and (vi) the Commitment of each Existing Committed Lender shall
be reduced to the amount specified on such new Schedule I.

          (b) Effective as of the Effective Date, each Existing Conduit Lender
hereby sells and assigns to each Assignee (as defined below), without recourse,
warranty, or representation of any kind, except as specifically provided herein,
an undivided percentage ownership interest in the Loans held by such Existing
Conduit Lender in the respective amounts and percentages necessary so that, from
and after such sale and assignment, the percentage of the outstanding Loans held
by the respective Lender Groups shall be equal to their respective Lender Group
Percentages (determined after giving effect to the changes to the Conduit
Lending Limits contemplated herein). The New Conduit Lenders may, in their sole
discretion, purchase and accept such assignment from the Existing Conduit
Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Conduit Lending Limits. In
the event the New Conduit Lender for any Lender Group elects not to accept its
ratable share of such assignment, the New Committed Lender in such Lender Group
shall purchase and accept from the Existing Conduit Lenders such share of the
assignment. Any New Conduit Lender or New Committed Lender that so purchases and
accepts an assignment from the Existing Conduit Lenders is referred to herein as
an "Assignee." The obligations of the Assignees hereunder shall be several and
not joint.

          (c) The amount payable by any Assignee to any Existing Conduit Lender
in respect of the assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) above (the "Assignment
Amount") shall be equal to the Principal Balance of the Loans so assigned to
such Assignee by such Existing Conduit Lender as set forth on Schedule II
attached hereto.

          (d) Each Assignee shall pay the Assignment Amount owing by it to an
Existing Conduit Lender on the Effective Date by wire transfer of immediately
available funds to the account specified by the Funding Agent for such Existing
Conduit Lender, such payment to be made by no later than 1:00 P.M. (New York
time) on such date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no
assignment from an Existing Conduit Lender to an Assignee pursuant to paragraph
(b) above shall become effective until such Assignee shall have paid in full the
Assignment Amount due from such Assignee in accordance with the terms hereof.


                                       2


          (e) All accrued and unpaid Interest with respect to the Loans assigned
by any Existing Conduit Lender to any Assignee hereunder shall be payable as
follows: (i) with respect to that portion of such Interest accrued up to but not
including the effective date of such assignment, to the Funding Agent for such
Existing Conduit Lender and (ii) with respect to that portion of such Interest
accrued from and including the effective date of such assignment, to the Funding
Agent for the relevant Assignee. All such Interest shall be paid on the last day
of the related Tranche Period(s) for such Loans (as such Tranche Periods were in
effect immediately prior to such assignment).

          (f) Each Existing Conduit Lender:

          (i) represents and warrants that it is the legal and beneficial owner
     of the interest being assigned by it hereunder and that such interest is
     free and clear of any adverse claim;

          (ii) makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility
     with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in
     connection with any Transaction Document or any other instrument or
     document furnished pursuant thereto or the execution, legality, validity,
     enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of any Transaction
     Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto;
     and

          (iii) makes no representation or warranty and assumes no
     responsibility with respect to the financial condition of any Transaction
     Party or the performance or observance by any Transaction Party of any of
     its respective obligations under the Transaction Documents or any other
     instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto.

          (g) Each New Conduit Lender and New Committed Lender:

          (i) confirms that it has received a copy of the Receivables Loan
     Agreement and such other documents and information as it has deemed
     appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this
     Amendment;

          (ii) agrees that it will, independently and without reliance upon the
     Administrative Agent, any Funding Agent or any other Lender and based on
     such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time,
     continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action
     under the Receivables Loan Agreement;

          (iii) appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent and its related
     New Funding Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to
     exercise such powers under the Receivables Loan Agreement and the other
     Transaction Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent and such
     New Funding Agent, respectively, by the terms thereof, together with such
     powers as are reasonably incidental thereto;

          (iv) agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of
     the obligations which by the terms of the Receivables Loan Agreement and
     this Amendment


                                       3


     are required to be performed by it as a Conduit Lender or Committed Lender,
     as the case may be;

          (v) specifies as its address for notices the office set forth on
     Schedule I hereto;

          (vi) represents that this Amendment has been duly authorized, executed
     and delivered by it pursuant to its corporate powers and constitutes its
     legal, valid and binding obligation; and

          (vii) if such New Conduit Lender or New Committed Lender is organized
     under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, (A) confirms
     that it has delivered to the Administrative Agent, the Funding Agent and
     the Borrower the forms prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service of the
     United States certifying as to its status for purposes of determining
     exemption from United States withholding taxes with respect to all payments
     to be made to it under the Receivables Loan Agreement or such other
     documents as are necessary to indicate that all such payments are subject
     to such taxes at a rate reduced by an applicable tax treaty and (B) agrees
     to provide the Administrative Agent, the Funding Agent and the Borrower (to
     the extent permitted by applicable law) with similar forms for each
     subsequent tax year in which payments are to be made to it under the
     Receivables Loan Agreement.

          (h) This Amendment, in so far as it relates to the addition of the New
Conduit Lenders, the New Committed Lenders and the New Funding Agents as parties
to the Receivables Loan Agreement and the establishment of their respective new
Lender Groups, shall be deemed to be a "Joinder Agreement" within the meaning
of, and entered into pursuant to, the Receivables Loan Agreement in accordance
with Section 11.03(i) thereof and shall be effective as such for all purposes
thereunder.

          (i) On or prior to the Effective Date, the Borrower shall deliver (i)
to each New Funding Agent a Note payable to such New Funding Agent with a stated
principal amount equal to the Lender Group Limit for its Lender Group and (ii)
to each Existing Funding Agent a new Note reflecting the reduction in the Lender
Group Limit for its Lender Group. Upon its receipt of such new Note, each
Existing Funding Agent shall return its old Note to the Borrower for
cancellation.

          (j) The Administrative Agent hereby waives the requirement, pursuant
to Section 11.03(c)(iii) of the Receivables Loan Agreement, of a processing and
recordation fee.

          (k) On or promptly after the Effective Date, the Administrative Agent
will register each sale, transfer and assignment contemplated hereby in the
Register.
