                                 FIRST AMENDMENT
                                       TO
                            SERIES 2001-1 SUPPLEMENT

        THIS FIRST AMENDMENT, dated as of December 21, 2001, is by and among
GENERAL CABLE CAPITAL FUNDING, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer");
GENERAL CABLE INDUSTRIES, INC. (the "GCC"), a Delaware corporation; and JPMORGAN
CHASE BANK, formerly known as The Chase Manahttan Bank, solely in its capacity
as trustee (the "Trustee").

                                   BACKGROUND

        A.      The Issuer, GCC and the Trustee entered into a certain Master
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of May 9, 2001 (the "Pooling
Agreement"), with respect to the securitization of trade receivables.
Capitalized terms used in this First Amendment and not otherwise defined in this
First Amendment have the meanings ascribed to them in the Pooling Agreement.

        B.      The Pooling Agreement was supplemented by the Series 2001-VFC
Supplement and the Series 2001-1 Supplement, each dated as of May 9, 2001.

        C.      In accordance with Section 8.5 of the Series 2001-1 Supplement
and Section 11.1 of the Pooling Agreement, the parties have determined to amend
the Series 2001-1 Supplement as provided in this First Amendment.

        D.      Pursuant to Section 11.1(d) of the Pooling Agreement, the Issuer
has delivered a copy of this First Amendment to each Agent identified therein at
least five days prior to the execution and delivery of this First Amendment.

        E.      Effectiveness of this First Amendment is conditioned upon (i)
consent of Investor Certificateholders in accordance with Section 11.1(b) of the
Pooling Agreement and (ii) satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition in
accordance with Section 11.1(f) of the Pooling Agreement.

                                   AMENDMENTS

        Now, therefore, with the intention of being legally bound by this First
Amendment, the parties hereby agree as follows:

        1.      Section 2.6 of the Series 2001-1 is hereby amended to replace
the dollar amount $100,000,000 in both places at which it appears in Section 2.6
with the dollar amount $80,000,000, such that Section 2.6 shall read as follows:

                If as of the last day of any period of three consecutive
        Settlement Periods the daily average excess during such period of the
        Series 2001-1 Invested Amount over the Series 2001-1 Adjusted

<PAGE>

        Invested Amount equals or exceeds the Reduction Threshold as determined
        by the Master Servicer, a portion of the Class A Invested Amount and the
        Class B Invested Amount shall be repaid (a "Reduction"), by causing the
        Trustee to distribute to the Term Certificateholders an amount (the
        "Reduction Amount") equal to the lesser of: the smallest amount of such
        excess existing during all three such Settlement Periods rounded down to
        the nearest $1,000,000, or the amount which would reduce the Series
        2001-1 Invested Amount to $80,000,000. In no event shall a Reduction be
        made in an amount which would cause the Series 2001-1 Invested Amount to
        be reduced below $80,000,000. The Master Servicer shall direct the
        Trustee in writing to make such distribution and shall specify the
        amount of the Reduction to be distributed as specified below. The
        distribution of the Reduction Amount shall be made to the Term
        Certificateholders pro rata based on the Initial Invested Amount of each
        Class, from the funds on deposit in the Series 2001-1 Principal
        Collection Sub-subaccount on the immediately succeeding Distribution
        Date (a "Special Distribution Date"); provided that no Early
        Amortization Event or Potential Early Amortization Event (other than
        pursuant to clauses (b), (c) and (d) of Section 5.1 hereof) has occurred
        and is continuing and the Master Servicer shall have given the Trustee
        written notice of such Reduction and the related Reduction Amount (which
        amount shall not exceed the available funds on deposit in the Series
        2001-1 Principal Collection Sub-subaccount as of the date of such
        notice) at least five Business Days prior to the related Special
        Distribution Date setting forth the amount of such Reduction and, in the
        case of such notice to the Trustee, instructions not to distribute to
        the Company any amounts pursuant to subsection 3.3(c)(i) until the
        condition set forth in the second proviso in such subsection is
        satisfied.

        2.      This First Amendment shall be construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to principles of conflicts
of law, and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties hereunder shall
be determined in accordance with such laws.

                   {SIGNATURE PAGE TO FIRST AMENDMENT FOLLOWS}

        IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company, the Master Servicer and the Trustee
have caused this Agreement to be duly executed by their respective officers as
of the day and year first above written.

         (2) The parties hereto desire to modify certain provisions of the

         NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereby agree as follows:

         SECTION 1. AMENDMENTS.

         1.1. AMENDMENT TO MATURITY DATE. Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is
hereby amended to delete the definition of "MATURITY DATE" therefrom and to
insert in place thereof the following:

                  "MATURITY DATE" shall mean August 10, 2004, unless extended in
         accordance with Section 4.4, or such earlier date on which the Total

         1.2. AMENDMENT TO DATE OF PROJECTIONS. Section 8.1 of the Credit
Agreement is hereby amended to delete subsections (c) and (e) therefrom and to

                  (c) OFFICER'S COMPLIANCE CERTIFICATES. (i) At the time of the
         delivery of the financial statements provided for in sections 8.1(a)
         and (b), a certificate on behalf of the Borrower of the Chief Financial
         Officer or other Authorized Officer of the Borrower to the effect that,

         set forth the calculations required to establish compliance with the
         provisions of section 9.8 of this Agreement; and (iii) if after the
         Borrower delivers a certificate pursuant to this section 8.1(c) for any
         fiscal period, the Borrower completes an Acquisition, the Borrower may
         deliver another certificate pursuant to this section 8.1(c) for the
         same fiscal period which gives pro forma effect to such Acquisition for
         the period prior to the date of the Acquisition which is covered by
         such fiscal period or prior periods, in the manner contemplated by the
         definition of Consolidated EBITDA and other applicable defined terms,
         in the computations establishing compliance with such sections.

                  (e) BUDGETS AND FORECASTS. On or before March 31st of any
         fiscal year of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, a consolidated budget

         Borrower) for any subsequent fiscal year, as customarily prepared by
         management for its internal use, setting forth, with appropriate
         discussion, the forecasted balance sheet, income statement, operating
         cash flows and capital expenditures of the Borrower and its
         Subsidiaries for the period covered thereby, and the principal
         assumptions upon which such forecast and budget are based.

         Borrower, the Borrower will not suffer or permit at any time during any
         such calendar month the ratio of (a) the amount of its Consolidated
         Total Debt for such calendar month to (b) its Consolidated EBITDA for
         the most recently completed 12 calendar months, to exceed 4.00 to 1.00.

         1.4. AMENDMENT TO CAPITAL EXPENDITURE LIMITATION. The Credit Agreement
is hereby amended to delete Section 9.11 therefrom and to insert in place
thereof the following:

                  9.11. CONSOLIDATED CAPITAL EXPENDITURES. The Borrower will
