          continuing, the Borrower may declare and pay dividends in cash with
          respect to its capital stock to the Parent in an amount not to exceed
          $5,000,000 in the aggregate to permit the Parent to pay fees and

Credit exceed the amount of the Existing Revolving Advances (any such excess
amount defined as the "New Revolving Advances") and any interest on the New
Revolving Advances shall be paid from the proceeds of any Collateral after
acceleration of the Secured Obligations before any payment is made or applied to
the principal or interest on any other Loan or Facility Letter of Credit. It is
acknowledged that the amount of any assets in the Borrowing Base on account of
any assets owned by any Foreign Subsidiary shall be set at the amount determined
in the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate delivered prior to the Fifth
Amendment Effective Date.

in all other such cases," is substituted in place thereof.

(other retention agreements with professionals and confidentiality agreements)

                POTENTIAL EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND TEMPORARY WAIVER.

         4.1 The Borrower has requested that the Lenders and the Administrative
Agent temporarily waive any Default (the "Existing Potential Defaults"), if any,
caused solely by (a) the filing or existence of the German Preliminary
Proceeding, (b) the incurrence of the German Preliminary Proceeding Financing by
the German Preliminary Proceeding Subsidiaries and any Liens on the assets of
the German Preliminary Proceeding Subsidiaries to secure the German Preliminary
Proceeding Financing, (c) any breach of Section 6.25 or 6.28 before September 1,
2002 or Section 6.26 or 6.27 on June 30, 2002, (d) the failure to pay interest
on the 1999 Senior Unsecured Notes and the 1999 Subordinated Notes payable on
June 3, 2002 prior to the expiration of the 30-day grace period applicable
thereto or any extension of such grace period, or (e) the failure to pay
interest on the 1997 Senior Unsecured Notes payable on July 1, 2002 prior to the
expiration of the 30-day grace period applicable thereto or any extension of
such grace period. Pursuant to such request, the Lenders and the Administrative
Agent hereby temporarily waive any Existing Potential Default for the period
prior to the effectiveness of this Amendment and, so long as no other Default
exists and there is no occurrence of a new Default until September 1, 2002, but
not at any time on or after September 1, 2002.

         The Borrower, the Guarantors, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent
agree that a new Default includes (each of which shall constitute a Default
under the Credit Agreement): (i) any Default other than an Existing Potential
Default and, without limiting the foregoing, the occurrence of any default of
any kind under any Material Indebtedness, the acceleration of any Material
Indebtedness or the conversion of the German Preliminary Proceeding to a formal
insolvency proceeding shall be deemed a new Default, and (ii) the failure to
satisfy, on or before the close of business on July 2, 2002, such conditions as
may be required by the Lender Committee on July 2, 2002, all as determined by
the Lender

                                       6

Committee in its sole discretion, unless and to the extent waived by the Lender
Committee in its sole discretion.

         The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the waiver contained herein
is a limited, specific and one-time waiver as described above. Such limited
waiver (a) shall not modify or waive any other term, covenant or agreement
contained in any of the Loan Documents, and (b) shall not be deemed to have
prejudiced any present or future right or rights which the Administrative Agent
or the Lenders now have or may have under this Amendment, the Credit Agreement
(as modified hereby) or the other Loan Documents.

                                   ARTICLE 5.
                                 MISCELLANEOUS.

         5.1 The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the pro
rata benefit of each Lender based on such Lender's Commitments, an availability
fee of $250,000 on the date hereof and an additional availability fee of
$250,000 on August 1, 2002 on such Lender's Commitments, which fees shall be
distributed to the Lenders within two Business after each such date.

         5.2 References in the Credit Agreement or in any other Loan Document to
the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to be references to the Credit Agreement as
amended hereby and as further amended from time to time.

         5.3 Except as expressly amended hereby, the Borrower and the Guarantors
agree that the Loan Documents are ratified and confirmed and shall remain in
full force and effect and that they have no set off, counterclaim, defense or
other claim or dispute with respect to any of the foregoing. The terms used but
not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the
Credit Agreement.

         5.4 This Amendment may be signed upon any number of counterparts with
the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same
instrument.
