other Loan Document is true and correct in all material respects on and as of
the Amendment No. 4 Effective Date, as if made on and as of such date and except
to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically relate to a
specific date, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true

however, that references therein to the "Credit Agreement" shall be deemed to
refer to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby and after giving effect to the
consents and waivers set forth herein; and

            (c)   no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

      SECTION 4.  FEES AND EXPENSES

words of like import, and each reference in the other Loan Documents to the

"thereunder", "thereof" and words of like import), shall mean and be a reference
to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby, and this Amendment and the Credit
Agreement shall be read together and construed as a single instrument. Each of
the table of contents and lists of Exhibits and Schedules of the Credit
Agreement shall be amended to reflect the changes made in this Amendment as of
the Amendment No. 4 Effective Date.

Loan Documents are and shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby
ratified and confirmed.

            (c)   The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment
shall not, except as expressly provided herein, operate as a waiver of any
right, power or remedy of the Lenders, the U.S. Borrower, Lead Arranger or the
Administrative Agent under any of the Loan Documents, nor constitute a waiver or
amendment of any other provision of any of the Loan Documents or for any purpose
except as expressly set forth herein.

      SECTION 6.  EXECUTION IN COUNTERPARTS

            This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by
different parties in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall
be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one
and the same agreement. Signature pages may be detached from multiple separate
counterparts and attached to a single counterpart so that all signature pages
are attached to the same document. Delivery of an executed counterpart by
telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of
this Amendment.

      SECTION 7.  GOVERNING LAW

              This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the law of the State of New York.

      SECTION 8.  SECTION TITLES

            The section titles contained in this Amendment are and shall be
without substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are not a part
of the agreement between the parties hereto, except when used to reference a
section. Any reference to the number of a clause, sub-clause or subsection of
any Loan Document immediately followed by a reference in parenthesis to the
title of the section of such Loan Document containing such clause, sub-clause or
subsection is a reference to such clause, sub-clause or subsection and not to
the entire section; provided, however, that, in case of direct conflict between
the reference to the title and the reference to the number of such section, the
reference to the title shall govern absent manifest error. If any reference to
the number of a section (but not to any clause, sub-clause or subsection
thereof) of any Loan Document is followed immediately by a reference in
parenthesis to the title of a section of any Loan Document, the title reference
shall govern in case of direct conflict absent manifest error.

      SECTION 9.  NOTICES

              All communications and notices hereunder shall be given as
provided in the Credit Agreement.

      SECTION 10. SEVERABILITY

            The fact that any term or provision of this Agreement is held
invalid, illegal or unenforceable as to any person in any situation in any
jurisdiction shall not affect the validity, enforceability or legality of the
remaining terms or provisions hereof or the validity, enforceability or legality
of such offending term or provision in any other situation or jurisdiction or as
applied to any person.

      SECTION 11. SUCCESSORS

            The terms of this Amendment shall be binding upon, and shall inure
to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns.

      SECTION 12. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL

            EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AMENDMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT.

                            [SIGNATURE PAGES FOLLOW]

            IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Amendment to
be executed by their respective officers and general partners thereunto duly
authorized, as of the date first written above.
