A. Borrower, Lenders and Administrative Agent are parties to a Credit Agreement dated as of August 11, 1999 (the Credit Agreement) providing for a multi-year revolving credit facility and a 364-day revolving credit facility convertible into term loans.
B. The 364-day revolving credit facility provided under the Credit Agreement has expired and Borrower has requested Lenders and Administrative Agent to amend the Credit Agreement to expand the definition of Permitted Indebtedness to include a new revolving credit facility convertible into term loans being provided to Borrower by separate agreement.
C. Lenders and Administrative Agent are willing so to amend the Credit Agreement upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth below.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above recitals and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, Borrower, Lenders and Administrative Agent hereby agree as follows:
1. Definitions; Interpretation. All capitalized terms defined above and elsewhere in this Amendment shall be used herein as so defined. Unless otherwise defined herein, all other capitalized terms used herein shall have the respective meanings given to those terms in the Credit Agreement, as amended by this Amendment.

2. Amendment to Credit Agreement. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Paragraph 4 below, clause (x) of Subparagraph 5.02(a) of the Credit Agreement is relettered clause (xi) and a new clause (x) is added to Subparagraph 5.02(a) as follows:
