      10. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. The Borrower hereby represents and
warrants to the Bank that on and as of the date hereof and after giving effect
to this Amendment:

      a. The Borrower has the power and authority to execute, deliver and
perform its obligations under this Amendment. This Amendment has been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Borrower. This Amendment
constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable
against each Borrower in accordance with its terms, subject to the effect of any
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar law affecting
creditor's rights generally and general principles of equity.

      b. The execution and delivery of this Amendment and the performance by the
Borrower of its obligations under the Loan Agreement, as amended hereby, do not
and will not conflict with any provision of law or of the charter or bylaws of
the Borrower or of any agreement binding upon the Borrower.

event or condition which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time,
shall constitute an Event of Default, has occurred or is continuing.

      d. As of the date hereof, the representations and warranties of the
Borrower in the Loan Agreement are true and correct as though made of even date
herewith, except to the extent that such representations and warranties
expressly relate to an earlier date.

      11. REFERENCE TO LOAN AGREEMENT; NO WAIVER.

      a. References. Upon the effectiveness of this Amendment, each reference in
the Loan Agreement to "this Agreement," "hereunder," "hereof," "herein" or words
of like import shall mean and be a reference to the Loan Agreement, as amended
hereby.

      b. No Waiver. The Bank's failure, at any time or times hereafter, to
require strict performance by the Borrower of any provision or term of the Loan
Agreement or this Amendment shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of the
Bank hereafter to demand strict compliance and performance herewith or
therewith. Any suspension or waiver by the Bank of a breach of this Amendment or
any Event of Default under the Loan Agreement shall not suspend, waive or affect
any other breach of this Amendment or any Event of Default under the Loan
Agreement or other Loan Documents, whether the same is prior or subsequent
thereto and whether of the same or of a different kind or character. None of the
undertakings, agreements, warranties, covenants and representations of the
Borrower contained in this Amendment, shall be deemed to have been suspended or
waived by the Bank unless such suspension or waiver is (i) in writing and signed
by the Bank, and (ii) delivered to the Borrower. In no event shall the Bank's
execution and delivery of this Amendment establish a course of dealing among the
Bank, the Borrower or other obligor, or in any other way obligate the Bank to
hereby provide any amendments or waivers with respect to the Loan Agreement. The
terms and provisions of this Amendment shall be limited precisely as written
and, except as provided in Section 4 hereof, shall not be deemed (i) to be a
consent to or a modification or waiver of any other term or condition of the
Loan Agreement or other Loan Documents or (ii) to prejudice any right or remedy
which the Bank may now have under or in connection with the Loan Agreement.

      c. Full Force and Effect. The Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents
shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed.

      12. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Amendment shall be binding upon and inure
to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns; provided, however, the Borrower may not assign any of its rights or
obligations under this Amendment without the prior written consent of Bank.

      13. SEVERABILITY. Wherever possible, each provision of this Amendment
shall be interpreted in such a manner so as to be effective and valid under
applicable law, but if any provision of this Amendment is held to be prohibited
by or invalid under applicable law, such provision or provisions shall be
ineffective only to the extent of such provision or invalidity, without
invalidating the remainder of this Amendment.

      14. GOVERNING LAW. This Amendment shall be deemed to be a contract made
under the laws of the State of Illinois, and the rights and obligations of the
parties hereunder shall be construed in accordance with and be enforced and
governed by the internal laws of the State of Illinois, without regard to choice
of law or conflicts of law principles.

the "RELEASEES") from any and all claims, demands, liabilities, disputes,
damages, suits, controversies, penalties, fees, costs, expenses, actions and
causes of action (whether at law or in equity) and obligations of every nature

relate to any actions which any or all of the Releasees may have taken or
omitted to take prior to the date this Amendment was executed, including,
without limitation, with respect to the Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents,
other than for the Bank's gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Borrower
acknowledges that the Bank is specifically relying upon the representations,
warranties and agreements contained herein and that such representations,
warranties and agreements constitute a material inducement to the Bank in
entering into this Amendment.

      16. COUNTERPARTS. This Amendment may be executed in one or more
counterparts, each of which taken together shall constitute one and the same
instrument, admissible into evidence.

      17. RECITALS. The Recitals set forth above are hereby incorporated herein
and made a part hereof.

      18. NO IMPAIRMENT. The Borrower and the Bank intend that this Amendment
shall not in any manner constitute a novation and shall in no way adversely
affect, diminish or impair the Loan Agreement, the Loan Documents or the liens
created thereby securing the payment of the Obligations and that such liens are
and shall be and remain prior liens and shall not in any manner be waived or
subordinated, the purpose of this Amendment being to carry forward all liens
security the Obligations, which are acknowledged by the parties hereto to be
valid and subsisting.

      19. FURTHER MODIFICATIONS. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that by
the granting of this Amendment, the Bank shall not be in any way obligated to
further modify, extend, or amend the Loan Agreement or the Loan Documents, or to
