                                   ARTICLE VI

continuing except that (i) as more fully set forth in the Administrative Agent's
Notice of Default, dated March 22, 2001, certain Events of Default under Section
8.1(k) of the Loan Agreement have occurred and are continuing, (ii) certain
Events of Default under Section 8.1(c) of the Loan Agreement have occurred and
are continuing based on the Borrower's default in the performance or observance
of the covenants contained in Sections 7.9 (Total Leverage Ratio), 7.10
(Annualized Operating Cash Flow to Pro Forma Debt Service Ratio) and 7.12
(Operating Cash Flow to New Cash Interest Expense Ratio) of the Loan Agreement,
(iii) certain Events of Default under Section 2.7(b)(ii) of the Loan Agreement
have and are continuing based on the Borrower's failure to make a principal

(collectively, the "Existing Events of Default") and (b) all representations and
warranties of the Borrower contained in the Loan Documents (with such term being
deemed to include this Fourth Amendment and the Loan Agreement) are true and
correct in all material respects with the same effect as if made on and as of
such date, except (i) to the extent any of such representations and warranties
relate to a specific date, in which case such representations and warranties
shall be deemed true and correct on and as of such date and (ii) as disclosed in
the Borrower's Form 10-K for the annual period ended December 31, 2001 (none of
which disclosures shall be deemed adopted, ratified or in any way approved by
the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders).

        Section 6.2 Reaffirmation of Covenants. The Borrower hereby expressly
reaffirms each of the covenants made by them in the Loan Agreement and the other
Loan Documents.

        Section 6.3 Release. The Borrower on behalf of itself, its Subsidiaries
and its agents, acting in such capacity, hereby releases, waives, and forever
relinquishes all claims, demands, obligations, liabilities and causes of action
of whatever kind or nature, whether known or unknown, which any of them have,
may have, or might assert at the time of execution of this Fourth Amendment or
in the future against the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and/or their
respective parents, affiliates, participants, officers, directors, employees,
agents, attorneys, accountants, consultants, successors and assigns, directly or
indirectly, which occurred, existed, was taken, permitted or begun from the
beginning of time through the date hereof, arising out of, based upon, or in any
manner connected with (i) any transaction, event, circumstance, action, failure
to act or occurrence of any sort or type, whether known or unknown, with

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

respect to the Loan Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or the administration
thereof or the Obligations created thereby, (ii) any discussions, commitments,
negotiations, conversations or communications with respect to the refinancing,
restructuring or collection of any Obligations related to the Loan Agreement,
any other Loan Document and/or the administration thereof or the Obligations
created thereby, or (iii) any matter related to the foregoing.

        Section 6.4 Reference to and Effect on the Loan Documents; Limited
Effect. On and after the date hereof and the satisfaction of the conditions
contained in Article IV of this Fourth Amendment, each reference in the Loan
Agreement to "this Agreement", "hereunder", "hereof" or words of like import
referring to the Loan Agreement, and each reference in the other Loan Documents
to "the Loan Agreement", "thereunder", "thereof" or words of like import
referring to the Loan Agreement, shall mean and be a reference to the Loan
Agreement as amended hereby. For purposes of the Loan Agreement, all of the
agreements of the Borrower contained in this Fourth Amendment shall be deemed to
be, and shall be, agreements under the Loan Agreement. The execution, delivery
and effectiveness of this Fourth Amendment shall not, except as expressly
provided herein, operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of any Lender
or any Agent under any of the Loan Documents, nor constitute a waiver of any
provisions of any of the Loan Documents. Except as expressly amended or waived
herein, all of the provisions and covenants of the Loan Agreement and the other
Loan Documents are and shall continue to remain in full force and effect in
accordance with the terms thereof and are hereby in all respects ratified and
confirmed.

        Section 6.5 Reservation of Rights. The Administrative Agent and each and
all of the Lenders hereby expressly reserve their rights, at any time to take
any and all actions, and to exercise any and all remedies, authorized or
permitted under the Loan Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, or available at
law or equity or otherwise. In addition, except as expressly provided herein,
the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders do not waive and have not
waived any such rights or remedies by this Amendment or by their failure to act
upon any of the Existing Events of Default. Failure by the Administrative Agent
or any of the Lenders to exercise, or delay in exercising, any such rights or
remedies in the future shall not constitute a waiver of such rights or remedies
or of any Event of Default. Furthermore, any prior or current discussions or
course of conduct between the Administrative Agent and any of the Lenders or
their representatives, on the one hand, and the Borrower or its representatives,
on the other hand, is not and has not been intended to constitute a waiver of
any such rights or remedies, or an amendment of the Loan Agreement or any of the
Loan Documents.

        Section 6.6 Counterparts. This Fourth Amendment may be executed by one
or more of the parties hereto in any number of separate counterparts (which may
include counterparts delivered by facsimile transmission) and all of said
counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same
instrument. Any executed counterpart delivered by facsimile transmission shall
be effective for all purposes hereof.

        Section 6.7 GOVERNING LAW. THIS FOURTH AMENDMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND
OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS FOURTH AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND
CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

6.    Non-Solicitation, Non-Disclosure,
      Shop Rights and Insider Trading

      (a)    Non-Solicitation.

             During Employee's Term of Employment with Employer, and for a
      period of one (1) year from the date of expiration or termination of such
      employment (the "Restricted Period"), Employee covenants and agrees that
      Employee will not, directly or indirectly, either for itself or for any
      other person or business entity, (i) solicit any employee of Employer to
      terminate his employment with Employer or employ such individual during
      his employment with Employer and for a period of one (1) year after such
      individual terminates his employment with Employer, or (ii) make any
      disparaging statements concerning Employer, Employer's Business or its
      officers, directors, or employees, that could injure, impair or damage the
      relationships between Employer or Employer's business on the one hand and
      any of the employees, customers or suppliers of Employer's business, or
      any lessor, lessee, vendor, supplier, customer, distributor, employee or
      other business associate of Employer's Business.

      (b)    Non-Disclosure and Non-Use.

             (i) Description of Confidential Information. For purposes of this
      Section 6(b),

                                       4
<PAGE>

      Confidential Information means any information disclosed during the
      Restricted Period, which is clearly either marked or reasonably understood
      as being confidential or proprietary including, but not limited to,
      information disclosed in discussions between the parties in connection
      with technical information, data, proposals and other documents of

      Employer pertaining to its business, products, services, finances, product
      designs, plans, customer lists, public relations and other marketing
      information and other unpublished information. Confidential Information
      shall include all tangible materials containing Confidential Information
      including, but not limited to, written or printed documents and computer
      disks and tapes, whether machine or user readable.

             (ii) Standard of Care. Employee shall protect the Confidential
      Information from disclosure to any person other than other employees of
      Employer who have a need to know, by using a reasonable and prudent degree
      of care, in light of the significance of the Confidential Information, to
      prevent the unauthorized use, dissemination, or publication of such
      Confidential Information.

             (iii) Exclusion. This Section 6(b) imposes no obligation upon
      Employee with respect to information that: (a) was in Employee's
      possession before receipt from Employer; (b) is or becomes a matter of
      public knowledge through no fault of Employee; (c) is rightfully received
      by Employee from a third party who does not have a duty of
      confidentiality; (d) is disclosed under operation of law, except that
      Employee will disclose only such information as is legally required and
      give Employer prompt prior notice; or (e) is disclosed by Employee with
      Employer's prior written consent.

             (iv) Stock Trading. If the information disclosed or of which
      Employee becomes aware is material non-public information about the
      Employer, then Employee agrees not to trade in the securities of MHM or
      Emey, or in the securities of or any appropriate and relevant third party,
      until such time as no violation of the applicable federal and state
      securities laws would result from such securities trading.

             (v) Return of Confidential Information. The Employee will
      immediately destroy or return all tangible material embodying Confidential
      Information (in any form and including, without limitation, all summaries,
      copies and excerpts of Confidential Information) upon the earlier of (i)
      the completion or termination of the dealings between the Employer and
      Employee under the Agreement or (ii) at such time that Employer may so
      request.

             (vi) Notice of Breach. Employee shall notify Employer immediately
      upon discovery of any of his unauthorized use or disclosure of
      Confidential Information, or any other breach of the Agreement by
      Employee, and will cooperate with Employer in every reasonable way to help
      Employer regain possession of Confidential Information and prevents its
      further unauthorized use.

                                       5
<PAGE>

             (vii) Injunctive Relief. The Employee acknowledges that disclosure
      or use of Confidential Information in violation of the Agreement could
      cause irreparable harm to the Employer for which monetary damages may be
      difficult to ascertain or an inadequate remedy. The Employee therefore
      agrees that the Employer will have the rights in addition to its other
      rights and remedies, to seek and obtain injunctive relief from any
      violation of the Agreement.

      (c).   Shop Rights and Inventions, Patents, and Technology.

      Employee shall promptly disclose to Employer any developments, designs,
      patents, inventions, improvements, trade secrets, discoveries,
      copyrightable subject matter or other intellectual property conceived,
      either solely or jointly with others, developed, or reduced to practice by
      Employee during Employee's Term of Employment in connection with the
      services performed for Employer (the "Company Developments") and shall
      treat such information as proprietary to Employer. Employee agrees to
      assign to Employer any and all of Employee's right, title and interest in
      the Company Developments and Employee hereby agrees that Employee shall
      have no rights in the Company Developments. Any and all Company
      Developments in connection with the services performed for Employer
      pursuant to the Agreement are "works for hire" created for and owed
      exclusively by Employer.

7.    Representation and Indemnification

      Employee hereby represents and warrants that Employee is not a party to
any agreement, whether oral or written, which would prohibit Employee from being
employed by Employer, and Employee further agrees to indemnify and hold
Employer, its directors, officers, shareholders and agents, harmless from and
against any and all losses, cost or expense of every kind, nature and
description (including, without limitation, whether or not suit be brought, all
reasonable costs, expenses and fees of legal counsel), based upon, arising out
of or otherwise in respect of any breach of such representation and warranty.

8.    Injunctive Relief

      The parties acknowledge that the services to be rendered hereunder by
Employee are special, unique and of extraordinary character, and that in the
event of a breach or a threatened breach of Employee of any of Employee's
obligations under this Agreement, Employer will not have an adequate remedy at
law. Accordingly, in the event of any breach or threatened breach of Employee,
Employer shall be entitled to such equitable and injunctive relief as may be
available to restrain Employee and any business, firm, partnership, individual,
corporation or entity participating in the breach of this agreement. Nothing in
this agreement shall be construed as prohibiting Employer from pursing any other
remedies available at law or in equity for such breach or threatened breach,
including the recovery of damages and the immediate termination of the
employment of Employee under this agreement.

10.   Miscellaneous

      (a)    This Agreement shall be governed in all respects, including
      validity, construction, interpretation and effect, by New Jersey law,
      without giving effect to conflicts of laws. The parties hereby agree that
      any action, proceeding or claim arising out of, or relating in any way to,
      this Agreement shall be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of
      New Jersey or of the United States of America for New Jersey, and
      irrevocably submit to such jurisdiction, and waive any claim that such
      courts represent an inconvenient forum. Any process or summons to be
      served upon either party may be served by transmitting a copy thereof by
      registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid,
      addressed to such party at the address set forth hereinabove. Such mailing
      shall be deemed personal service and shall be legal and binding upon said
      party in any action, proceeding or claim.

      (b)    This Agreement may be amended, superseded, canceled, renewed or
      extended, and the terms hereof may be waived, only by a written instrument
      signed by authorized representatives of the parties or, in the case of a
      waiver, by an authorized representative of the party waiving compliance.
      No such written instrument shall be effective unless it expressly recites
      that it is intended to amend, supersede, cancel, renew or extend this
      Agreement or to waive compliance with one or more of the terms hereof, as
      the case may be. No delay on the part of any party in exercising any
      right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor
      shall any waiver on the part of any party of any such right, power or
      privilege, or any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or
      privilege, preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
      other such right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein
      provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies
      that any party may otherwise have at law or in equity.

      (c)    In view of Employer's need and desire to maintain a proper working

                                       7
<PAGE>

      environment with suitable demeanor of its employees and in light of
      Employer's sensitivity to the views of its customers and potential
      customers and to regulatory bodies having jurisdiction over Employer's
      business activities, Employer has instituted a policy of requiring
      employees to be subject to, at Employer's sole reasonable discretion,
      alcohol and drug testing procedures and requirements. Employee
      specifically consents to the same, agrees to be subject to whatever
      procedures may now or hereinafter be put in place covering such testing
      and understands and agrees that Employee's consent to this is a material
      inducement to Employer to enter into this agreement and to provide for the
      employment of Employee hereunder.

      (d)    If any provision or any portion of any provision of this Agreement
      or the application of any such provision or any portion thereof to any
      person or circumstance, shall be held invalid or unenforceable, the
      remaining portion of such provision and the remaining provisions of this
      Agreement, or the application of such provision or portion of such
      provision as is held invalid or unenforceable to persons or circumstances
      other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall
      not be affected thereby and such provision or portion of any provision as
      shall have been held invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed limited or
      modified to the extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable; in no
      event shall this Agreement be rendered void or unenforceable.

      (e)    The headings to the Sections of this Agreement are for convenience
      of reference only and shall not be given any effect in the construction or
      enforcement of this Agreement.

      (f)    This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon
      the successor and assigns of Employer, but no interest in this Agreement
      shall be transferable in any manner by Employee.

      (g)    This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding
      between the parties and supersedes all prior discussions, agreements and
      undertakings, written or oral, of any and every nature with respect
      thereto.

      (h)    This Agreement may be executed by the parties hereto in separate
      counterparts which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

      (i)    In the event of the termination or expiration of this Agreement,
      the provisions of Sections 6, 7, 8 and 10 hereof shall remain in full
      force and effect, in accordance with their respective terms.
