                                       5

       SECTION 2.2  PURCHASE AND SALE.

       (a)  The Seller hereby irrevocably sells, sets over, assigns, transfers
and conveys to the Buyer and its successors and assigns, without recourse,
except as specifically set forth herein, and the Buyer hereby accepts, purchases
and receives from the Seller, all of the Seller's right, title, and interest in
and to the Historical Advances, together with all monies due or to become due in
respect thereof.

        (b)  The purchase price (the "PURCHASE PRICE") for the Historical
Advances shall be $15,000,378.30, plus the Limited Partner Capital Account
Adjustment.  The Buyer shall pay and transfer to the Seller on the Closing Date
the cash portion of the Purchase Price, by wire transfer of immediately
available funds, and shall make the Limited Partner Capital Account Adjustment
in favor of Seller.

       (c)  The Purchase shall be made, and the Purchase Price paid as set forth
above, PROVIDED that all conditions precedent to the Purchase specified in
Section 4.1 shall have been satisfied.

       SECTION 2.3  INTENDED AS SALE.

       (a)  It is the intention of the parties hereto that the Purchase shall
constitute a sale and assignment, which sale and assignment shall be absolute,
irrevocable and without recourse except as specifically provided herein and
shall provide the Buyer with the full benefits of ownership of the Historical
Advances.  In the event that the Purchase is deemed by a court contrary to the
express intent of the parties to constitute a pledge rather than a sale and
assignment of the Historical Advances, the Buyer shall be treated as having a
first-priority, perfected security interest in and to, and lien on, the
Historical Advances.  The possession by the Buyer or its agent of notes and such
other goods, money or documents related thereto, and the filing of Form UCC-1,
shall be deemed to be "possession by the secured party" and "perfection by
filing", respectively, for purposes of perfecting such security interest
pursuant to the Relevant UCC. The sale and conveyance hereunder of the
Historical Advances does not constitute an assumption by the Buyer or its
successors and assigns of any obligations of the Seller to any Person in
connection with the Historical Advances or under any Scheduled Pooling and
Servicing Agreement or any other agreement or instrument relating to the
Historical Advances.

       (b)  In connection with the Purchase, and to reflect the sale of the
Historical Advances by the Seller, the Seller agrees to record and file on or
prior to the Closing Date, at its own expense, financing statements with respect
to the Historical Advances, suitable to reflect the transfer of accounts and
general intangibles (each as defined in Article 9 of the Relevant UCC) and
meeting the requirements of applicable state Law in such manner and in such
jurisdictions as are necessary to perfect the sale, transfer and assignment of
the Historical Advances from the Seller to the Buyer, and to deliver
file-stamped copies of such financing statements or other evidence of such
filing satisfactory to the Buyer on the Closing Date or the day thereafter.  In
addition to, and without limiting the foregoing, the Seller shall, upon the
request of the Buyer, in order to accurately reflect this transaction, execute
and file such financing or continuation

                                       6
<PAGE>

statements or amendments thereto or assignments thereof (as permitted
pursuant to Section 8.8 hereof) as may be reasonably requested by the Buyer.

       (c)  The Seller shall maintain its books and records, including but not
limited to any computer files and master data processing records, so that such
records that refer to Historical Advances sold hereunder shall indicate clearly
that the Seller's right, title and interest in such Historical Advances has been
sold to the Buyer.  Indication of the Buyer's interest in Historical Advances
shall be deleted from or modified on the Seller's records when, and only when,
the Historical Advances shall have been paid in full or the Buyer's interest in
such Historical Advances shall have been repurchased or repaid by the Seller
hereunder.

       SECTION 2.4  PROTECTION OF OWNERSHIP OF THE BUYER.

       (a)  The Seller agrees that from time to time, at its expense, it shall
promptly execute and deliver all additional instruments and documents and take
all additional action that the Buyer may reasonably request in order to perfect
the interests of the Buyer in, to and under, or to protect, the Historical
Advances, or to enable the Buyer to exercise or enforce any of its rights or
remedies hereunder. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the Buyer
and its successor and assigns shall be permitted to sign and file continuation
statements and amendments thereto without the Seller's signature if the Seller
shall have failed to sign such continuation statements, amendments or
assignments within five (5) Business Days after receipt of a request for such
execution from the Buyer. The Seller hereby irrevocably consents to Buyer's
execution in Seller's name of continuation statements, amendments or
assignments.

       (b)  At any reasonable time and from time to time at the Buyer's
reasonable request and upon seven days' prior notice to the Seller, for so long
as Seller is the Servicer under the Scheduled Pooling and Servicing Agreements,
the Seller shall permit such Person as the Buyer may designate to conduct audits
or visit and inspect the Chief Executive Office of the Seller to examine the
Records, internal controls and procedures maintained by the Seller with respect
to the Historical Advances and take copies and extracts therefrom, and to
discuss the Seller's affairs with its officers, employees and, upon notice to
the Seller, independent accountants.  The Seller hereby authorizes such
officers, employees and independent accountants to discuss with the Buyer or its
designee the affairs of the Seller.  Any audit provided for herein shall be
conducted in accordance with Seller's rules respecting safety and security on
its premises and without materially disrupting operations.

       (c)  If the Seller shall receive any payments with respect to Historical
Advances, the Seller shall hold such payments in trust and shall pay such
amounts to the applicable Scheduled Trustee in accordance with the terms of the
applicable Scheduled Pooling and Servicing Agreements.

       (d)  The Buyer shall have the right to do all such acts and things as it
may deem reasonably necessary to protect its interests hereunder, including,
without limitation, confirmation and verification of the existence, amount and
status of the Historical Advances.

                                       7

       SECTION 2.5  MANDATORY REPURCHASE UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES.

       (a)  The Seller shall promptly repurchase from the Buyer all of the
Historical Advances for a repurchase price equal to the aggregate Outstanding
Balance of all of the Historical Advances, if, at any time, the Buyer shall
cease to have a perfected ownership interest in all of the Historical Advances
purchased hereunder, free and clear of any Lien imposed by or in respect of
Seller, or if any of the representations or warranties made by the Seller in
Sections 3.1(b), (c), (f) and (i) prove to have been false or misleading in any
material respect as of the date on which they were made, except that, with
respect to the representations and warranties in Section 3.1(f), Seller shall be
obligated to repurchase the Historical Advances as provided herein only if the
failure of such representation and warranty results in any Form UCC-1 filed with
respect to the Historical Advances not having been filed in a location effective
to perfect a security interest (with respect to general intangibles) against the
Seller under the Relevant UCC.

       (b)  If a Repurchase Event occurs with respect to any particular
Historical Advance, the Seller shall promptly repurchase such Historical Advance
from the Buyer for a purchase price equal to the then Outstanding Balance of
such Historical Advance.

       (c)  Each of the Seller and the Buyer shall promptly notify the other if
it becomes aware of or receives notice of any fact or circumstance that could or
would cause the Seller to be obligated to repurchase any Historical Advance
pursuant to this Section 2.5 or any Historical Advance is not otherwise
recoverable.  The repurchase price of any Historical Advances purchased
hereunder shall be deposited by Seller into an account designated by Buyer
within two (2) Business Days of Buyer notifying Seller that a Repurchase Event
has occurred, or of Seller becoming aware that such Repurchase Event has
occurred.

       (d)  Upon receipt by the Buyer of the Outstanding Balance of any
Historical Advance required to be repurchased by the Seller pursuant to this
Section 2.5, the Buyer shall automatically and without further action, be deemed
to sell, transfer, assign, set-over and otherwise convey to the Seller, without
recourse, representation or warranty, all the right, title and interest of the
Buyer in and to such Historical Advance and all monies due or to become due with
respect thereto; and such repurchased Historical Advance shall be treated by the
Buyer as collected in full as of the date on which it was transferred.  The
Buyer shall execute such documents and instruments of transfer or assignment and
take such other actions as shall reasonably be requested by the Seller to effect
the conveyance of such Historical Advance and all monies due or to become due
with respect thereto, pursuant to this Section 2.5.  Promptly following any such
repurchase, the Seller shall update Schedule 1 to remove therefrom such
repurchased Historical Advance, and deliver the same to the Buyer as so updated.

       SECTION 2.6  TRANSFERS BY BUYER.  The Seller acknowledges and agrees that
the Buyer may sell, assign, encumber or otherwise dispose of the Historical
Advances.

organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of its

on its financial condition or results of operations.

ownership interests in the Historical Advances, the Buyer's ownership interests
therein will be perfected under Article 9 of such UCC or under applicable Law,

and all other Persons whatsoever (other than the Buyer and its successors and
assigns).

       (d)  AUTHORIZATIONS AND FILINGS.  No authorization, consent, approval,
license, exemption or other action by, and no registration, qualification,
designation, declaration or filing with, any Official Body is or will be

Insurer's right to terminate the applicable Scheduled Pooling and Servicing
Agreements based on Seller's failure to achieve certain delinquency and/or loss
targets, no event has occurred that would give any party to any Scheduled
Pooling and Servicing Agreement the right (including with notice or lapse of
time or both) to terminate the Seller for cause as the Servicer or Sub-Servicer
under any Scheduled Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and the Seller does not
have actual knowledge of any pending or threatened action to terminate the
Seller as Servicer or Sub-Servicer under any of the Scheduled Pooling and
Servicing Agreements.

       (b)  ASSIGNMENT.  Subject to the execution and delivery by Greenwich
Capital Financial Products, Inc. ("Greenwich") of that certain Release of
Collateral dated as of February 24, 2000, releasing all assets conveyed pursuant
to that certain Historical Advance Purchase Agreement dated as of June 10, 1999
between Buyer and Seller, that certain Historical Advance Purchase Agreement
dated as of June 17, 1999 between Buyer and Seller and this Agreement (the
"Release"), and the execution, delivery and filing by Greenwich of the UCC-2
related to such Release, this Agreement vests in the Buyer all of the right,
title and interest in and to the Historical Advances, and constitutes a valid
sale of the Historical Advances, enforceable against, and creating an interest
prior in right to, all creditors of and purchasers from the Seller.

       (c)  NO LIENS. Subject to the execution and delivery by Greenwich of the
Release  and the execution, delivery and filing by Greenwich of the UCC-2
related to such Release, each

                                      11
<PAGE>

Historical Advance is owned by the Seller free and clear of any Lien (except
any Lien of the Trust under the relevant Scheduled Pooling and Servicing
Agreement), except as provided herein, and is not subject to any dispute or
other adverse claim, except as provided herein.  When the Buyer purchases the
Historical Advances, it shall acquire ownership of the Historical Advances,
free and clear of any Lien, except as provided herein.

       (d)  FILINGS. Subject to the execution and delivery by Greenwich of the
Release  and the execution, delivery and filing by Greenwich of the UCC-2
related to such Release, on or prior to the Closing Date, all financing
statements and other documents required to be recorded or filed in order to
perfect and protect the Historical Advances against all creditors of, and
purchasers from, the Seller and all other Persons whatsoever have been duly
filed in each filing office necessary for such purpose and all filing fees and
taxes, if any, payable in connection with such filings have been paid in full
and all documents required to be filed to release any Liens on the Historical
Advances shall have been filed.

       (e)  COLLECTION POLICY.  The Seller has complied in all material respects
with the Collection Policy in regard to each Historical Advance and the related
Scheduled Pooling and Servicing Agreement.  The Seller has not extended or
modified the terms of any Historical Advance or the related Scheduled Pooling
and Servicing Agreement except in accordance with the Collection Policy.

       (f)  BONA FIDE HISTORICAL ADVANCE.  Each Historical Advance is an
obligation arising out of the making of a Monthly Advance or Servicing Advance
by the Seller or a predecessor servicer, in its capacity as a servicer of a
portfolio of mortgage loans, pursuant to a Scheduled Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.  Each Historical Advance relates to a Monthly Advance or Servicing
Advance that has been made in accordance with the terms of the related Scheduled
Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Subject to the execution and delivery by
Greenwich of the Release and the execution, delivery and filing by Greenwich of
the UCC-2 related to such Release, the Seller has no knowledge of any fact that
has led it to expect that such Historical Advance will not be fully recoverable
when the related mortgage loan is brought current or is liquidated and the
Seller had a good faith basis, at the time each Historical Advance was made, to
believe that such Historical Advance would be fully recoverable.

       (g)  ACCURACY OF SCHEDULE.  The information set forth in SCHEDULE 1
(including ANNEX A to SCHEDULE 1) and in SCHEDULE 2 hereto with respect to the
Historical Advances and the Scheduled Pooling and Servicing Agreements is true
and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof.

       (h)  CREDITOR APPROVAL. Subject to the execution and delivery by
Greenwich of the Release and the execution, delivery and filing by Greenwich of
the UCC-2 related to such Release, the Seller has obtained from each Person that
may have an interest in the Historical Advances (i) all approvals that are
necessary to sell and assign the Historical Advances in the manner contemplated
by this Agreement and (ii) releases of any security interests in the Historical
Advances.

take such actions as are reasonable and within its power to ensure that, with
respect to each Historical Advance, that Buyer will receive reimbursements with
respect to such Historical Advance as promptly as practicable; PROVIDED HOWEVER,

Advance against any and all parties to a Scheduled Pooling and Servicing

days' prior written notice of any relocation of its Chief Executive Office if,
as a result of such relocation, the applicable provisions of the UCC of any

or of any new financing statement.  The Seller will at all times maintain its
Chief Executive Office within a jurisdiction in the United States in which
Article 9 of the UCC (1972 or later revision) is in effect as of the date hereof

term of this Agreement, unless the Buyer shall otherwise consent in writing:

corporate structure in any manner which would make any financing statement or
continuation statement filed in connection with this Agreement or the
transactions contemplated hereby misleading within the meaning of Section

unless it shall have given the Buyer at least thirty (30) days' prior written

statement or continuation statement to be amended or a new financing statement
to be filed such that such financing statement or continuation statement would
not be misleading.

        (b)  COLLECTION POLICY.  The Seller shall not make, allow or consent to

<PAGE>

       SECTION 7.1  INDEMNITY.

       (a)  The Seller agrees to indemnify, defend and save harmless the Buyer
and any of its successors or permitted assignees (each, an "INDEMNIFIED PARTY"
and collectively, the "INDEMNIFIED PARTIES"), other than for the Indemnified
Party's own gross negligence or willful misconduct, forthwith on demand, from
and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses
(including, without limitation, all reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses,
expenses incurred by an Indemnified Party (or any successors thereto) and
expenses of settlement, litigation or preparation therefor) which any
Indemnified Party may incur or which may be asserted against any Indemnified
Party by any Person (whether on its own behalf or derivatively on behalf of the
Seller) arising from or incurred in connection with (i) any breach of a
representation, warranty or covenant by the Seller made or deemed made hereunder
or in connection herewith or the transactions contemplated hereby or (ii) any
action taken or, if the Seller is otherwise obligated to take action, failed to
be taken, by the Seller with respect to the Historical Advances or any of its
obligations hereunder including, without limitation, the Seller's failure to

governmental investigation against such Indemnified Party, such Indemnified
Party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Seller
hereunder, notify the Seller in writing of the commencement thereof.  The Seller
may participate in and assume the defense and settlement of any such suit,
action, claim, proceeding or investigation at its expense, and no settlement
thereof shall be made without the approval of the Seller and the Indemnified
Party.  The approval of either party will not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed.

       (c)  Each Indemnified Party shall use its good faith efforts to mitigate,
reduce or eliminate any losses, expenses or claims for indemnification.

       SECTION 8.1  SURVIVAL.  The indemnification and payment provisions of
Article VII shall be continuing and shall survive any termination of this
Agreement, subject to applicable statutes of limitation; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
any such indemnification or payment claim must be presented to the Seller within
thirty (30) Business Days after the Person making such claim receives notice or
otherwise becomes aware of such claim, PROVIDED, FURTHER, however, that any
failure to give such notice shall not prejudice the rights of any Indemnified
Party except to the extent Seller is actually prejudiced by such failure to give
notice.

       SECTION 8.2  AMENDMENTS.  Any provision of this Agreement may be waived
or amended only in a writing signed by the parties hereto.

       SECTION 8.3  NOTICES.  Except as provided below, all communications and

fullest extent they may lawfully do so, any objection which they may now or
hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such
a court and any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been
brought in an inconvenient forum.  Nothing in this Section 8.4 shall affect the
right of any Person to bring any action or proceeding against the Seller or the

       (b)  THE SELLER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY DESIGNATES CT CORPORATION AS ITS
DESIGNEE, APPOINTEE AND AGENT TO RECEIVE, FOR AND ON BEHALF OF IT, SERVICE OF
PROCESS IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT. THE
SELLER FURTHER IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS OF ANY OF THE

THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, TO CT CORPORATION,
1633 BROADWAY, NEW YORK, NEW YORK, OR TO ITS ADDRESS FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 8.3,

AFFECT THE RIGHT OF THE BUYER TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY
LAW OR TO COMMENCE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS OR OTHERWISE PROCEED AGAINST THE SELLER IN
ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

       SECTION 8.5  NO IMPLIED WAIVER; CUMULATIVE REMEDIES.  No course of
dealing and no delay or failure of the Buyer in exercising any right, power or
privilege under this Agreement shall affect any other or future exercise thereof
or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege; nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege or any abandonment or
discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right, power or privilege preclude any
further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege.  The rights
and remedies of the Buyer under this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive
of any rights or remedies which the Buyer would otherwise have.

                                      18
<PAGE>

       SECTION 8.6  NO DISCHARGE.  The obligations of the Seller under this
Agreement shall be absolute and unconditional and shall remain in full force and
effect without regard to, and shall not be released, discharged or in any way
affected by (a) any exercise or nonexercise of any right, remedy, power or
privilege under or in respect of this Agreement or applicable Law, including,
without limitation, any failure to set-off or release in whole or in part by the

inaction in respect of any thereof, or (b) any other act or thing or omission or
delay to do any other act or thing which would operate as a discharge of the
Buyer as a matter of law.

understanding of the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof,
and supersede all prior understandings and agreements, whether written or oral
with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

       SECTION 8.8  SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.  This Agreement shall be binding on
the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided,
however, that the Seller may not assign any of its rights or delegate any of its
duties hereunder without the prior written consent of the Buyer.  No provision
of this Agreement shall in any manner restrict the ability of the Buyer to
assign, participate, grant security interests in, or otherwise transfer any
portion of the Historical Advances owned by the Buyer.  The Seller further
agrees that notwithstanding any claim, counterclaim, right of setoff or defense
which it may have against the Buyer due to a breach by the Buyer of this
Agreement or for any other reason, and notwithstanding the bankruptcy of the
Buyer or any other event whatsoever, the Seller's sole remedy shall be a claim
against the Buyer for money damages, and in no event shall the Seller assert any
claim on or any interest in the Historical Advances or take any action which
would reduce or delay receipt of collections with respect to the Historical
Advances.

       SECTION 8.09  SEVERABILITY; COUNTERPARTS.  This Agreement may be executed
in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate
counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original
and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same
Agreement.  Any provisions of this Agreement which are prohibited or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective
to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the
remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable any other provision in
such jurisdiction or such provision in any other jurisdiction.

       SECTION 8.10  EXPENSES.  Seller shall pay Buyer's costs and expenses
reasonably incurred in connection with Buyer's negotiation, preparation,
execution and delivery of this Agreement, including the fees and out-of-pocket
expenses of Buyer's counsel, and Buyer's costs and expenses incurred in seeking
enforcement of any of Seller's obligations hereunder.

                                  AMENDMENT NO. 2
                     TO THE MASTER LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

              Amendment No. 2, dated as of April 4, 2000 (this "AMENDMENT"), to
the Master Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of October 29, 1999 (as
previously amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the "EXISTING LOAN
AGREEMENT", and as amended hereby, the "LOAN AGREEMENT"), between AAMES CAPITAL
CORPORATION (the "BORROWER"), and MORGAN STANLEY DEAN WITTER MORTGAGE CAPITAL
INC., formerly MORGAN STANLEY MORTGAGE CAPITAL INC. (the "LENDER").

                                       RECITALS

              The Borrower and the Lender are parties to the Existing Loan
Agreement.  Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have
the meanings given to them in the Existing Loan Agreement.

              The Borrower and the Lender have agreed, subject to the terms and
conditions of this Amendment, that the Existing Loan Agreement be amended to
reflect certain agreed upon revisions to the terms of the Existing Loan
Agreement relating to the "Applicable Collateral Percentage".

              Accordingly, the Borrower and the Lender hereby agree, in
consideration of the mutual premises and mutual obligations set forth herein,
that the Existing Loan Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

              SECTION 1.    AMENDMENTS.

                     (a)    The definition of "APPLICABLE COLLATERAL PERCENTAGE"
       contained in Section 1.01 of the Existing Loan Agreement is hereby
       amended by adding the following new sentence at the end thereof:

                     "Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) at any time when the
              aggregate principal amount outstanding of all Loans made hereunder
              shall be greater than or equal to $100,000,000 but less than
              $150,000,000, the Applicable Collateral Percentage shall be 96%
              with respect to (i) each First Lien Loan that is a Performing Loan
              and has been included in the Borrowing Base for 120 days or less
              and (ii) each Second Lien Loan that is a Performing Loan and has
              been included in the Borrowing Base for 120 days or less and (b)
              at any time when the aggregate principal amount outstanding of all
              Loans made hereunder shall be greater than or equal to
              $150,000,000, the Applicable Collateral Percentage shall be 97%
              with respect to (i) each First Lien Loan that is a Performing Loan
              and has been included in the Borrowing Base for 120 days or less
              and (ii) each Second Lien Loan that is a Performing Loan and has
              been included in the Borrowing Base for 120 days or less."

<PAGE>

                     (b)    The definition of "APPLICABLE MARGIN" contained in
       Section 1.01 of the Existing Loan Agreement is hereby amended by adding
       the following new sentence at the end thereof:

                     "Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time when the
              aggregate principal amount outstanding of all Loans made hereunder
              shall be greater than or equal to $150,000,000, the Applicable
              Margin shall be 1.15% with respect to (i) each First Lien Loan
              that is a Performing Loan and has been included in the Borrowing
              Base for 120 days or less and (ii) each Second Lien Loan that is a
              Performing Loan and has been included in the Borrowing Base for
              120 days or less."

                     (c)    The definition of "COLLATERAL VALUE" contained in
       Section 1.01 of the Existing Loan Agreement is hereby amended by deleting
       clause (b) thereof in its entirety and substituting in lieu thereof the
       following new clause (b):

                     "(b) either (i) except as set forth in clause (ii) below,
              98% of the outstanding principal balance of such Eligible Mortgage
              Loan or (ii) at any time when the aggregate principal amount
              outstanding of all Loans made hereunder shall be greater than or
              equal to $150,000,000, 100% of the outstanding principal balance
              of such Eligible Mortgage Loan, solely in the case of (A) any
              Eligible Mortgage Loan which is a First Lien Loan that is a
              Performing Loan and has been included in the Borrowing Base for
              120 days or less and (B) any Eligible Mortgage Loan which is a
              Second Lien Loan that is a Performing Loan and has been included
              in the Borrowing Base for 120 days or less."

              SECTION 2.    CONDITIONS PRECEDENT.  This Amendment shall become
effective on the date (the "AMENDMENT EFFECTIVE DATE") on which the following
conditions precedent shall have been satisfied:

modified by this Amendment, the Existing Loan Agreement shall continue to be,
