     guaranteeing or intended to guarantee (whether guaranteed, endorsed, co-
     made, discounted, or sold with recourse to such Person) any lease,
     sublease, dividend, letter of credit, or other obligation ("primary
     obligation") of any other Person ("primary obligor") in any manner, whether
     directly or indirectly, including any obligation of such Person
     (irrespective of whether contingent) (a) to purchase any such primary
     obligation or any Asset constituting direct or indirect security therefor,
     (b) to advance or supply funds (whether in the form of a loan, advance,
     stock purchase, capital contribution, or otherwise) (i) for the purchase,
     repurchase, or payment of any such primary obligation or any Asset
     constituting direct or indirect security therefor, or (ii) to maintain
     working capital or equity capital of the primary obligor, or to otherwise

     primary obligor, (c) to purchase or make payment for any Asset, security,
     service, or lease if primarily for the purpose of assuring the owner of any
     such primary obligation of the ability of the primary obligor to make
     payment of such primary obligation, or (d) to otherwise assure or hold
     harmless the owner of such primary obligation against loss in respect
     thereof; provided, however, that the term "Accommodation Obligation" shall
              --------  -------
     not include (i) endorsements of instruments for deposit or collection in
     the ordinary course of such Person's business, (ii) indemnities arising in
     the ordinary course of business, including indemnities arising in
     connection with the sale or other disposition of a Person's Assets or in
     connection with the incurrence of Debt, or (iii) guarantees of debt. The
     amount of any Accommodation Obligation shall be deemed to be an amount
     equal to the maximum amount of a Person's liability with respect to the
     stated or determinable amount of the primary obligation for which such
     Accommodation Obligation is incurred, or, if not stated or

                                       3

     determinable, the maximum reasonably anticipated liability in respect
     thereof (assuming such Person is required to perform thereunder) as
     determined by Agents."

          6.   Amendment to Section 1.1. Section 1.1 of the Agreement is hereby

     of, without duplication: (a) all obligations of such Person for borrowed
     money; (b) all obligations of such Person evidenced by bonds, debentures,
     notes, or other similar instruments and all reimbursement or other
     obligations of such Person in respect of letters of credit, bankers
     acceptances, or interest rate swaps; (c) all obligations of such Person to
     pay the deferred purchase price of Assets or services, exclusive of trade
     payables which are incurred in the ordinary course of such Person's
     business consistent with past practices; (d) all Capitalized Lease
     Obligations of such Person; (e) all obligations or liabilities of others
     secured by a Lien on any Asset owned by such Person, irrespective of
     whether such obligation or liability is assumed, to the extent of the
     lesser of such obligation or liability or the fair market value of such
     Asset; (f) all Accommodation Obligations with respect to Debt of another
     Person; and (g) guarantees of debt."

          7.   Amendment to Section 6.25. Section 6.25 of the Agreement is
               --------------------------
hereby amended by adding the following subsection (m) at the end of such
Section:

     "         (m) Borrower may incur Debt comprised of guarantees of debt 
     so long as such Debt does not violate any term of this Agreement and such
     Debt comports with the covenants under Section 6.13 of this Agreement with
     regard to the Funded Debt Ratio."

          8.   Amendment to Schedule 6.27(a). Schedule 6.27(a) of the Agreement
