                       FIRST AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AGREEMENT

                This Amendment, dated as of October 17, 2000, but retroactively

MINNESOTA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association, formerly known
as Norwest Bank Minnesota, National Association, in its separate capacity as
administrative agent for itself and all other Banks (in such capacity, the
"Agent").

                                    Recitals

                A.      The Borrower, the Banks and the Agent have entered into
a Credit Agreement dated as of November 30, 1999 (as the same may hereafter be
amended or restated from time to time, the "Credit Agreement").

                B.      The Borrower has requested that the Banks and the Agent,
among other things, amend Section 5.11 of the Credit Agreement.

                C.      The Banks and the Agent are willing to grant the
Borrower's requests subject to the terms and conditions set forth below.

                ACCORDINGLY, in consideration of the premises and for other good
and valuable consideration, the Borrower, the Banks and the Agent agree as
follows:

                1.      All capitalized terms used in this Amendment and not
otherwise specifically defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings given
such terms in the Credit Agreement.

                2.      Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by
adding the following new definition of "First Amendment" in the appropriate
alphabetical location:

                "'First Amendment' means the First Amendment to Credit
        Agreement, dated as of October 17, 2000, but retroactively effective as
        of August 31, 2000, by and among the Borrower, the Banks and the Agent."

                3.      Section 5.11 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended
in its entirety to read as follows:

                "Section 5.11 Merger of Fluoroware and Empak into the Borrower.
        The Borrower will cause Fluoroware and Empak to merge into the Borrower,
        with the Borrower as the surviving entity, on or before November 30,
        2001."

<PAGE>

                4.      To the extent that any Default or Event of Default
exists as a result of the Borrower's failure to comply with the provisions of
Section 5.11 of the Credit Agreement prior to the amendment of Section 5.11 of
the Credit Agreement pursuant to the provisions of this Amendment, the Banks and
the Agent hereby waive any such Default or Event of Default. This waiver shall
be effective only in this specific instance and for the specific purpose for
which it is given. This waiver shall not entitle the Borrower to any other or
further waiver in any similar or other circumstances.

                5.      Except as amended by this Amendment, all of the terms
and conditions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain
in all other respects in full force and effect.

                6.      This Amendment may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which
counterparts taken together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

                7.      The Borrower and each Guarantor, by signing its
respective Acknowledgment and Agreement set forth below, each hereby absolutely
and unconditionally releases and forever discharges the Agent and each of the
Banks, and any and all participants, parent corporations, subsidiary
corporations, affiliated corporations, insurers, indemnitors, successors and
assigns thereof, together with all of the present and former directors,
officers, agents and employees of any of the foregoing (the "Released Parties"),
from any and all claims, demands or causes of action of any kind, nature or
description, whether arising in law or equity or upon contract or tort or under
any state or federal law or otherwise, which the Borrower or such Guarantor has
had, now has or has made claim to have against such Released Party for or by
reason of any act, omission, matter, cause or thing whatsoever arising from the
beginning of time to and including the date of this Amendment in connection with
or related to the transactions evidenced by the Loan Documents, whether such
claims, demands and causes of action are mature or unmatured or known or
unknown.

                8.      Except as expressly waived pursuant to paragraph 4 of
this Amendment, the execution of this Amendment shall not be deemed to be a
waiver of any Default or Event of Default under the Credit Agreement, whether or
not known to the Agent and/or the Banks and whether or not existing on the date
of this Amendment.

                9.      The Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Agent
and the Banks as follows:

                (a)     The Borrower has all requisite power and authority to
        execute this Amendment and to perform all of its obligations under the

        binding obligations of the Borrower, enforceable in accordance with
        their respective terms.

        of the Credit Agreement, as amended by this Amendment, and the other
        Loan Documents executed on behalf of the Borrower have been duly
        authorized by all necessary corporate action and do not (i) require any
        authorization, consent or approval by any governmental department,

        provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Unused Commitment

        related compliance certificate as required under Section 5.1(b) of this
        Agreement. The ratio will be determined on the basis of a rolling four

        Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to have a ratio of Total
        Funded Debt to EBITDA for such quarter of more than 2.00 to 1.00, and
        the Eurodollar Rate Margin will be 2.000% beginning on the first day of

Document are hereby amended to refer to the address specified for the Agent and
Wells Fargo on the signature page of this Amendment.

                26.     This Amendment shall become effective when the Agent
shall have received the following, each in form and content acceptable to the
Agent in its sole discretion:

                (a)     This Amendment duly executed on behalf of the Borrower,
        the Banks and the Agent, with all schedules completed and attached
        thereto;

        Agreement, including requests for Advances and Eurodollar Rate Fundings,
        together with the true signatures of such officers. The Agent and each
        Bank may conclusively rely on such certificates until they shall receive
        a further certificate of the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the
        Borrower canceling or amending the prior certificate and submitting the
        signatures of the officers named in such further certificate;

        not more than thirty (30) days prior to the date hereof, and evidence
        satisfactory to the Agent that the Borrower is qualified to conduct its
        businesses in each state where it presently conducts such business;

        that no state or federal tax liens have been filed and remain in effect
        against the Borrower (or Fluoroware, Inc. or Empak, Inc.), and that no
        financing statements or other notifications or filings have been filed
        and remain in effect against the Borrower (or Fluoroware, Inc. or Empak,
        Inc.), other than those for which the Agent has received an appropriate
        release, termination or satisfaction or those permitted in accordance
        with Section 6.1 of the Credit Agreement, as amended by this Amendment;

                (g)     A signed copy of an opinion of counsel for the Borrower,
        addressed to the Agent and the Banks;

                                      -14-

<PAGE>

                (h)     Copies of all promissory notes evidencing Subordinated
        Debt in existence on the date of this Amendment, together with
        subordination agreements executed on behalf of all of such subordinated
        creditors in favor of the Agent and the Banks in form and content
        acceptable to the Agent in its sole discretion.

                27.     Except as amended by this Amendment, all of the terms
and conditions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain
in all other respects in full force and effect.

                28.     This Amendment may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which
counterparts taken together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

                29.     The Borrower hereby absolutely and unconditionally
releases and forever discharges the Agent and each of the Banks, and any and all
participants, parent corporations, subsidiary corporations, affiliated
corporations, insurers, indemnitors, successors and assigns thereof, together
with all of the present and former directors, officers, agents and employees of
any of the foregoing (the "Released Parties"), from any and all claims, demands
or causes of action of any kind, nature or description, whether arising in law
or equity or upon contract or tort or under any state or federal law or
otherwise, which the Borrower has had, now has or has made claim to have against
such Released Party for or by reason of any act, omission, matter, cause or
thing whatsoever arising from the beginning of time to and including the date of
this Amendment in connection with or related to the transactions evidenced by
the Loan Documents, whether such claims, demands and causes of action are mature
or unmatured or known or unknown.

                30.     The execution of this Amendment shall not be deemed to
be a waiver of any Default or Event of Default under the Credit Agreement,
whether or not known to the Agent and/or the Banks and whether or not existing
on the date of this Amendment.

                31.     The Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Agent
and the Banks as follows:

                (a)     The Borrower has all requisite power and authority to
        execute this Amendment and to perform all of its obligations under the

        Agreement, as amended by this Amendment, and the other Loan Documents
        executed on behalf of the Borrower have been duly executed and delivered
        by the Borrower and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations
        of the Borrower, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms.

                (b)     The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower
        of the Credit Agreement, as amended by this Amendment, and the other
        Loan Documents executed

                                      -15-

        or (iii) result in a breach of or constitute a default under any
        indenture or loan or credit agreement or any other agreement, lease or
        instrument to which the Borrower is a party or by which it or its
        properties may be bound or affected.

                (c)     All of the representations and warranties contained in
        Article IV of the Credit Agreement are correct on and as of the date
        hereof as though made on and as of such date, except to the extent that
        such representations and warranties relate solely to an earlier date.
