      A. DM and Seller are parties to a Supply Agreement made and entered into
as of September 3, 1993, as amended by an amendment made and entered into as of
December 21, 1993 (as amended, the "Supply Agreement").

      B. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Amendment, the parties

to the Supply Agreement immediately following ARTICLE XIX thereof:

<PAGE>

                                   ARTICLE XX

                                CONSIGNMENT ENDS

      In order to alleviate Seller's shortage of storage space during each
Supply Year hereunder, the parties agree that Seller may ship Ends on
consignment (the "Consignment Ends") to the DM Facilities during the period and
up to the amounts set forth in the schedule attached as Exhibit 20 hereto.
Exhibit 20 may be amended from time to time by the mutual agreement of the
parties to add or delete Facilities and to change quantities or shipment
periods. Seller will send DM a bill of lading marked "Consignment Bill of
Lading" for all Consignment Ends shipped to a Facility at the time of shipment.
DM shall store such Consignment Ends at the Facilities in a commercially
reasonable manner mutually agreed to by the parties in order to protect such
Consignment Ends from deterioration or damage. DM shall also store such
Consignment Ends separate and segregated from DM's assets and inventory. Upon
receipt by DM of the Consignment Ends DM shall promptly inspect the Consignment
Ends to determine compliance with specifications (including diameter), condition
and quantity and thereafter DM shall promptly provide Seller with an
acknowledgement of receipt of the Consignment Ends. Risk of loss for Consignment
Ends that conform to specification shall pass from Seller to DM upon delivery by
DM of such acknowledgement to Seller. Title to Consignment Ends shall remain
with

                                      -2-
<PAGE>

Seller until, and shall pass to DM upon, the date of usage by DM of such
Consignment Ends. DM shall notify Seller of the commencement of packing at any
Facility (the "Pack Notice"). After receipt of the Pack Notice, Seller shall
send a Payment Invoice for 20% of the Consignment Ends at such Facility on the
Monday after the first full week of packing at such Facility as determined by
the Pack Notice and for 20% of such Consignment Ends at such Facility on each of
the four succeeding Mondays. The parties hereto agree that DM shall first use
all Consignment Ends at a Facility (including all Consignment Ends held from a
prior packing season as provided below) prior to using any other Ends of the
same specification at such Facility. DM shall notify Seller of the conclusion of
the packing season at each Facility, and Seller shall promptly thereafter
inspect such Facility to determine the amount, if any, of unused Ends at such
Facility. Seller shall issue a credit against amounts owed by DM to Seller
pursuant to the Agreement for the amount of any full pallets of unused Ends that
have not been damaged, and DM shall hold such unused Ends on consignment in
accordance with the terms of this paragraph and pay for such Ends when used in
the subsequent packing season. DM hereby agrees to execute and deliver to Seller
any financing statements or other documents as shall be reasonably requested by
Seller to

                                      -3-

evidence the consignment contemplated by this paragraph.

                                   ARTICLE III

                                  REAFFIRMATION

      The parties hereby reaffirm all of the other terms and conditions of the
Supply Agreement, including without limitation Sections 3.4 (Working Capital)
and 3.7 (Return of Nonconforming Containers). This Amendment amends the Supply
Agreement only to the extent specified herein and shall not constitute an
amendment to any other provision of the Supply Agreement. From and after the
date hereof, all references to the Supply Agreement in the Supply Agreement and
other documents referred to therein shall be references to the Supply Agreement
as amended hereby.

      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Amendment to be
duly signed and delivered as of the date that appears in the first paragraph of
this Amendment.

                                CONSIGNMENT ENDS

            In order to alleviate Seller's shortage of storage space during each
      Supply Year hereunder, the parties agree that Seller may ship Ends on

      Facility as determined by the Pack Notice and for 10% of such Consignment
      Ends at such Facility on each of the nine succeeding Mondays. DM shall

      same specification at such Facility. DM shall notify Seller of the
      conclusion of the packing season at each Facility, and Seller shall
