                              PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

            A. The Seller, the Servicer, Jupiter, the Financial Institutions and
the Agent are parties to that certain Receivables Purchase Agreement dated as of
February 25, 2004 (as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto dated as of April 22,
2004 and as otherwise amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from

Agreement.

            B. The Seller, the Servicer, Jupiter, the Financial Institutions and
the Agent have agreed to amend the Purchase Agreement on the terms and subject
to the 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
are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

            SECTION 1. Amendment. Effective as of the date hereof and subject to
the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2 below, the
Purchase Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

            (a) The following new Section 4.6 is added to the Purchase Agreement
immediately following Section 4.5 of the Purchase Agreement:

                  "Section 4.6. Liquidity Agreement Fundings. The parties hereto
      acknowledge that Jupiter may put all or any portion of its Purchaser
      Interests to the Financial Institutions at any time pursuant to the
      Liquidity Agreement to finance or refinance the necessary portion of its
      Purchaser Interests through a funding under the Liquidity Agreement to the
      extent available. The fundings under the Liquidity Agreement will accrue
      interest at the Discount Rate in accordance with this Article IV.
      Regardless of whether a funding of Purchaser Interests by the Financial
      Institutions constitutes the direct purchase of a Purchaser Interest
      hereunder, an assignment under the Liquidity Agreement of a Purchaser
      Interest originally funded by Jupiter or the sale of one or more
      participations or other interests under the Liquidity Agreement in a
      Purchaser
<PAGE>
      Interest originally funded by Jupiter, each Financial Institution
      participating in a funding of a Purchaser Interest shall have the rights
      and obligations of a "Purchaser" hereunder with the same force and effect
      as if it had directly purchased such Purchaser Interest from Seller
      hereunder."

            (b) Clause (ii) of Section 8.5 of the Purchase Agreement is deleted
in its entirety and replaced with the following therefor:

      (ii) on January 15th of each year, an updated Schedule F setting forth the
      Foreign Excess Payable Amount for each Obligor and its Affiliates

            (c) The phrase ", its obligation to pay Jupiter its Acquisition
Amounts" is deleted from the first sentence of Section 12.2 of the Purchase
Agreement.

            (d) The following new Section 12.3 is added to the Purchase
Agreement immediately following Section 12.2 of the Purchase Agreement:

            whether such Financial Institution intends to renew its Commitment
            hereunder. If any Financial Institution fails to deliver such notice
            on or prior to the date that is 5 Business Days prior to the
            Liquidity Termination Date, such Financial Institution will be
            deemed to have declined to renew its Commitment (each Financial
            Institution which has declined or has been deemed to have declined
            to renew its Commitment hereunder, a "Non-Renewing Financial
            Institution"). The Agent shall promptly notify Jupiter of each
            Non-Renewing Financial Institution and Jupiter, in its sole
            discretion, may (A) to the extent of Commitment Availability,
            declare that such Non-Renewing Financial Institution's Commitment
            shall, to such extent, automatically terminate on a date specified
            by Jupiter on or before the Liquidity Termination Date or (B) upon
            one (1) Business Day's notice to such Non-Renewing Financial
            Institution assign to such Non-Renewing Financial Institution on a
            date specified by Jupiter its Pro Rata Share of the aggregate
            Purchaser Interests then held by Jupiter, subject to, and in
            accordance with, the Liquidity Agreement. In addition, Jupiter may,
            in its sole discretion, at any time (x) to the extent of Commitment
            Availability, declare that any Affected Financial Institution's
            Commitment shall automatically terminate on a date specified by
            Jupiter or (y) assign to any Affected Financial Institution on a
            date specified by Jupiter its Pro Rata Share of the aggregate
            Purchaser Interests then held by Jupiter, subject to, and in
            accordance with, the Liquidity Agreement (each Affected Financial
            Institution or each Non-Renewing Financial Institution is
            hereinafter referred to as a "Terminating Financial Institution").
            The parties hereto expressly acknowledge that any declaration of the
            termination of any Commitment, any assignment pursuant to this
            Section 12.3 and the order of priority of any such termination or
            assignment among Terminating Financial Institutions shall be made by
            Jupiter in its sole and absolute discretion.

            Upon reduction to zero of the Capital of all of the Purchaser
            Interests of a Terminating Financial Institution (after application
            of Collections thereto pursuant to Sections 2.2 and 2.3) all rights
            and obligations of such Terminating Financial Institution hereunder
            shall be terminated and such Terminating Financial Institution shall
            no longer be a "Financial Institution" hereunder; provided, however,
            that the provisions of Article X shall continue in effect for its
            benefit with respect to Purchaser Interests held by such Terminating
