Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the purposes of Section 7.8(a)(v) and (vi), the term “Fiscal Year” shall mean, with respect
to Fiscal Year 2001, only the fourth fiscal quarter of Fiscal Year 2001 and there shall not be carried forward from such Fiscal Year any amounts not realized and otherwise permitted to be carried forward pursuant to the terms of this section.

 
and (b) Section 7.18 the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by
inserting a new sentence at the end thereof which shall read as follows: 
 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, for Fiscal Year 2001 only, the Borrower may make or incur Capital Expenditures in an amount not to exceed $275,000,000, however, none of the amounts otherwise permitted to be carried forward
from such Fiscal Year pursuant to the terms of this section shall be carried forward to any Fiscal Year after Fiscal Year 2001. 

 
Each of the
Guarantors joins in the execution of this Letter for the purposes of consenting to the amendments to the Credit Agreement contained herein.

all the counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.
