entirety as follows:

“(d)         Minimum Liquidity. 
The Borrower shall maintain at all times unencumbered liquid assets

the sum of (a) the unused availability of the Borrowing Base, plus
(b) cash which is not subject to any Lien or right of set-off.”

(d)           Section 9.02 of the Credit
Agreement shall be amended by removing paragraph (g) and replacing it with the
following paragraph (g):

“(g)         other Debt, including purchase-money obligations, not to
exceed $7,500,000 in the aggregate at any one time outstanding; provided that
on the Reversion Date, the permitted amount of such Debt shall automatically
reduce from $7,500,000 to $1,000,000.”

4.             Certain Representations.  The Borrower represents and warrants that, as
of the Effective Date:  (a) the
Borrower has full power and authority to execute the Modification Papers and
the Modification Papers constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of
the Borrower enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as

affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally; and (b) no
authorization, approval, consent or other action by, notice to, or filing with,
any governmental authority or other person is required for the execution,
delivery and performance by the Borrower thereof.  In addition, the Borrower represents that all
representations and warranties contained in the Credit Agreement are true and
correct in all material respects on and as of the Effective Date (except

shall remain fully effective between the parties.

6.             Limitation on Agreements.  The modifications set forth herein are
limited precisely as written and shall not be deemed (a) to be a consent
under or a waiver of or an amendment to any other term or condition in the
Credit Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, or (b) to prejudice any
right or

rights which the
Administrative Agent or any Lender now has or may have in the future under or
in connection with the Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents, each as amended
hereby, or any of the other documents referred to herein or therein. The
Modification Papers shall constitute Loan Documents for all purposes.

7.             Counterparts.  This Amendment may be executed in any number
of counterparts, each of which when executed and delivered shall be deemed an
original, but all of which constitute one instrument.  In making proof of this Amendment, it shall
not be necessary to produce or account for more than one counterpart thereof
signed by each of the parties hereto.

8.             Incorporation of Certain
Provisions by Reference.  The provisions of Section 12.09 of the Credit
Agreement captioned “Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of
Process; Waiver of Jury Trial” are incorporated herein by reference for all
purposes.

9.             Entirety, Etc.  This instrument and all of the other Loan
Documents embody the entire agreement between the parties.  THIS AMENDMENT AND ALL OF THE OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE
