                  3.     Letters of Credit. Section 2.2 of the Credit Agreement
is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

         Section 2.2 Letters of Credit.

                  (a)    The Lender agrees, on the terms and subject to the
                         conditions herein set forth, to cause an Issuer to
                         issue, from the Funding Date to the Termination Date,
                         one or more irrevocable standby or documentary letters
                         of credit (each, a "Letter of Credit") for the
                         Borrower's account. The Lender shall have no obligation
                         to cause an Issuer to issue any Letter of Credit if the
                         face amount of the Letter of Credit to be issued would
                         exceed the lessor of:

                  (b)    (i) with respect to irrevocable standby Letters of
                         Credit, $250,000 less the Standby L/C Amount, plus

                         (ii) with respect to documentary Letters of Credit,
                         $300,000 less the Documentary L/C Amount; or

                         (iii)  with respect to the aggregate of irrevocable
                         standby Letters of Credit plus documentary Letters of
                         Credit, the Borrowing Base less the sum of (A) all
                         outstanding and unpaid Revolving Advances and (B) the
                         L/C Amount.

                  (c)    Each Letter of Credit, if any, shall be issued pursuant
                         to a separate L/C Application entered into by the
                         Borrower and the Lender for the benefit of the Issuer,
                         completed in a manner satisfactory to the Lender and
                         the Issuer. The terms and conditions set forth in each
                         such L/C Application shall supplement the terms and
                         conditions hereof, but if the terms of any such L/C
                         Application and the terms of this Agreement are
                         inconsistent, the terms hereof shall control.

                  (d)    No Letter of Credit shall be issued with an expiry date
                         later than the Termination Date in effect as of the
                         date of issuance.

                  (e)    Any request to cause an Issuer to issue a Letter of
                         Credit under this Section 2.2 shall be deemed to be a
                         representation by the Borrower that the conditions set
                         forth in Section 4.2 have been satisfied as of the date
                         of the request.

         interest payable pursuant to Section 2.6(a) and 2.6(c), (i) so long as
         all activity hereunder relates to Letters of Credit and there are no
         Advances hereunder, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender interest of
         not less than $50,000 per year of this Agreement or (ii) if there are
         any Advances hereunder, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender Interest
         of not less than $100,000 per year of this Agreement (the "Minimum
         Interest Charge") during the term of this Agreement, and the Borrower
         shall pay any deficiency between the Minimum Interest Charge and the

         2.6(c) on the date and in the manner provided in Section 2.8.

                  5. Unused Line Fee. The Lender agrees that so long as all
activity under the Credit Agreement relates to Letters of Credit and there are
no Advances, the unused line fee required under Section 2.7(b) of the Credit
Agreement shall be waived.

                  6. Letter of Credit Fees. Section 2.7(c) of the Credit
Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

                     to each irrevocable standby Letter of Credits, if any,
                     accruing on a daily basis and computed at the annual
                     rate of two percent (2%) of the aggregate amount that
                     may then be drawn on all issued and outstanding
                     irrevocable standby Letters of Credit assuming
                     compliance with all conditions for drawing thereunder
                     (the "Aggregate Standby Face Amount"), from and
                     including the date of issuance of such irrevocable
                     standby Letter of Credit until such date as such
                     irrevocable standby Letter of Credit shall terminate
                     by its terms or be returned to the Lender, due and
                     payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each
                     month and on the Termination Date; provided, however
                     that during Default Periods, in the Lender's sole
