| 3. | Amendment to Forbearance Terms. The provisions of Section 5(d) of the Forbearance Agreement are hereby deleted in their entirety and the following substituted in their stead: |
| d. | Amortization of Term Loans and LOC Reimbursement Term Loans; Payment of Deferred Fee. All regularly scheduled principal payments required to be made on account of Term Loan A, Term Loan B and each LOC Reimbursement Term Loan from April l, 2003 through the expiration of the Forbearance Period, as well as the payment of the Deferred Fee which was due on March 31, 2003, shall be extended and shall become due on the earlier of the expiration of the Forbearance Period, or the consummation of a sale of the Borrower and/or any of its subsidiaries. |
| 4. | Ratification of Credit Documents and Forbearance Agreement. The Borrower and the Guarantors hereby ratify, confirm, and reaffirm, each of the terms and conditions of the Credit Documents (including the Forbearance Agreement), and warrant and represent that all of the terms and conditions of the Credit Documents (including the Forbearance Agreement) remain in full force and effect and the Borrower and Guarantors shall comply therewith in all respects (except as provided herein). The Borrower and the Guarantors hereby ratify and confirm each of the representations and warranties set forth in the Credit Documents (including the Forbearance Agreement). |
| 5. | General. |
| a. | This First Amendment to Forbearance Agreement, together with the Forbearance Agreement, constitute one entire agreement. |

No such discussions, negotiations, custom, usage, or course of dealings shall limit, modify, or otherwise affect the provisions hereof. |
| d. | Except as modified hereby, all terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, the Forbearance Agreement, and the other Credit Documents remain in full force and effect. The Borrower and each Guarantor shall continue to comply with all of the other terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, the Forbearance Agreement, and other Credit Documents, as modified hereby. |
