Search ("US Search"). The Borrower has requested that the Agent and the Lenders
make certain modifications to the Credit Agreement to permit the Proposed
Facility.

          In addition, the Borrower has requested that the Agent and the
Lenders extend the Commitment Termination Date and Maturity Date under the
Credit Agreement by an additional two months.

          The Borrower, the Guarantors, the Lenders and the Agent have agreed
to make revisions to the Credit Agreement, all on the terms and subject to the
