                  compliance with the provisions of this Agreement in any
                  particular instance shall constitute a waiver under either
                  this Agreement or the Receivables Purchase Facility of any
                  future non-compliance with such provision and"

         6.       Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with all the Loan
Documents (collectively, the "Relevant Documents"), sets forth the entire
understanding and agreement of the parties hereto in relation to the subject
matter hereof and supersedes any prior negotiations and agreements among the
parties relative to such subject matter. No promise, condition, representation
or warranty, express or implied, not herein set forth shall bind any party
hereto, and not one of them has relied on any such promise, condition,
representation or warranty. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that, except
as otherwise expressly stated in the Relevant Documents, no representations,
warranties or commitments, express or implied, have been made by any party to
the other. None of the terms or conditions of this Agreement may be changed,
modified, waived or canceled orally or otherwise, except as permitted pursuant

         7.       Full Force and Effect of Agreement. Except as hereby
specifically amended, modified or supplemented, the Credit Agreement and all
other Loan Documents are hereby confirmed and ratified in all respects by each
party hereto and shall be and remain in full force and effect according to their
respective terms.

         8.       Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original as against any party
whose signature appears thereon, and all of which shall together constitute one
and the same instrument.

         9.       Governing Law. This Agreement shall in all respects be
governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the state of New
York.

         10.      Enforceability. Should any one or more of the provisions of
this Agreement be determined to be illegal or unenforceable as to one or more of
the parties hereto, all other provisions nevertheless shall remain effective and
binding on the parties hereto.

         11.      References. All references in any of the Loan Documents to the
"Credit Agreement" shall mean the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby.

         12.      Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of the Companies, Exmark, the Agent and each of the
Banks, and their respective successors, assigns and legal representatives;
provided, however, that neither Exmark nor any

                                       7

Company, without the prior consent of the Required Banks, may assign any rights,
