         and December 1, 2002 (each such date, a "Step-up  Date") (each such increase in the Applicable  Margin,  a
         "Step-Up");  and provided,  further, if the Senior Leverage Ratio is less than 5.00:1.00 for any period of
         two (2) consecutive  fiscal  quarters  ending after the Third Amendment  Effective Date as demonstrated in
         the financial statements and the Compliance  Certificate  delivered pursuant to §10.4 for each such fiscal
         quarter,  the Applicable  Margin shall  thenceforth be determined by reference to the Total Leverage Ratio
         as set forth in the above table without regard to any Step-Up.

         upon delivery,  such Compliance  Certificate shows the Applicable Margin should have increased during such
         period,  the Applicable  Margin will be increased  retroactively  to such Adjustment Date. If the Borrower
         fails to deliver a Compliance  Certificate  pursuant to §10.4(c) and such  Compliance  Certificate has not
         been  delivered  on or  prior  to the  10th  Business  Day  following  the day on  which  such  Compliance
         Certificate  was required to be delivered,  then  commencing on the 11th Business Day following the day on
         which such Compliance  Certificate was required to be delivered,  and continuing through the date on which
         Compliance  Certificate is delivered,  then the Applicable  Margin shall be the highest  Applicable Margin
         set forth above."

         (b)      Section 1.1 of the Credit  Agreement  is hereby  further  amended by deleting the  definition  of
"Tranche B Term Loan" set forth in such §1.1 in its entirety and  substituting  in lieu thereof the  following  new
definition:
