                  The undersigned Lenders, constituting Required Lenders under

         B.   The Agent shall have received:

                  (1) Resolutions of the Board of Directors or of the Executive

         hereof, certified by their respective corporate secretaries or

         instruments as the Agent may reasonably request; and

                  (5) For the pro rata benefit of the Lenders, calculated in
         accordance with the Percentages set forth in Section 1.5 hereof, a fee
         in the amount of $450,000.

Section 4.    Conditions Subsequent.

Section 5.    Company's Representations and Warranties.

                  In order to induce the Lenders and the Agent to enter into
this Amendment and to amend the Credit Agreement in the manner provided herein,
the Parent Guarantor and the Company represent and warrant to each Lender and
the Agent that, as of the Nineteenth Amendment Effective Date, after giving
effect to the effectiveness of this Amendment, the following statements are true
and correct in all material respects:

         A. Authorization of Agreements. The execution and delivery of this
Amendment by the Company and the Parent Guarantor and the performance of the
Credit Agreement as amended by this Amendment (the "Amended Agreement") by the
Company and the Parent Guarantor are within such Obligor's corporate powers and
have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the
Company and the Parent Guarantor, as the case may be.

         B. No Conflict.  The execution and delivery by the Company and the
Parent Guarantor of this Amendment and the performance by the Company and the
Parent Guarantor of the Amended Agreement do not:

                  (1) contravene such Obligor's Organic Documents;

                  (2) contravene the Senior Indenture, the New Senior Indenture,
         the Additional New Senior Indentures, or the Subordinated Indenture or
         contravene any other contractual restriction where such a contravention
         has a reasonable possibility of having a Materially Adverse Effect or
         contravene any law or governmental regulation or court decree or order
         binding on or affecting such Obligor or any of its Subsidiaries; or

                  (3) result in, or require the creation or imposition of, any
         Lien on any of such Obligor's properties or any of the properties of
         any Subsidiary of such Obligor, other than pursuant to the Loan
         Documents.

         C. Binding Obligation. This Amendment has been duly executed and
delivered by the Company and the Parent Guarantor and this Amendment and the
Amended Agreement constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the
Company and the Parent Guarantor, enforceable against the Company and the Parent
Guarantor in accordance with their respective terms, except as may be limited by
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to
or limiting creditors' rights generally and by general principles of equity.

         D.   Governmental Approval, Regulation, etc.  No authorization or
approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental
authority or regulatory body or any other Person is required for the due
execution, delivery or performance of this Amendment by the Company or the
Parent Guarantor.

         E.   Incorporation of Representations and Warranties from Credit
Agreement.  Each of the statements set forth in Section 7.2.1 of the Credit
Agreement is true and correct.

Section 6.    Acknowledgement and Consent.

                  The Company is a party to the Company Collateral Documents, in
each case as amended through the date hereof, pursuant to which the Company has
created Liens in favor of the Agent on certain Collateral to secure the
Obligations. The Parent Guarantor is a party to the Parent Collateral Documents,
in each case as amended through the date hereof, pursuant to which the Parent
Guarantor has created Liens in favor of the Agent on certain Collateral and
pledged certain Collateral to the Agent to secure the Obligations of the Parent
Guarantor. Certain Subsidiaries of the Company are parties to the Subsidiary
Guaranty and/or one or more of the Subsidiary Collateral Documents, in each case
as amended through the date hereof, pursuant to which such Subsidiaries have (i)
guarantied the Obligations and/or (ii) created Liens in favor of the Agent on
certain Collateral. The Company, the Parent Guarantor and such Subsidiaries are
collectively referred to herein as the "Credit Support Parties", and the
Company Collateral Documents, the Parent Collateral Documents, the Subsidiary
Guaranty and the Subsidiary Collateral Documents are collectively referred to
herein as the "Credit Support Documents".

                  Each Credit Support Party hereby acknowledges that it has
reviewed the terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement as amended by this
Amendment and consents to the amendment of the Credit Agreement effected as of
the date hereof pursuant to this Amendment.

                  Each Credit Support Party acknowledges and agrees that any of
the Credit Support Documents to which it is a party or otherwise bound shall
continue in full force and effect. Each Credit Support Party hereby confirms
that each Credit Support Document to which it is a party or otherwise bound and
all Collateral encumbered thereby will continue to guaranty or secure, as the
case may be, the payment and performance of all obligations guaranteed or
secured thereby, as the case may be.

                  Each Credit Support Party (other than the Company and the
Parent Guarantor) acknowledges and agrees that (i) notwithstanding the
conditions to effectiveness set forth in this Amendment, such Credit Support
Party is not required by the terms of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan
Document to consent to the amendments to the Credit Agreement effected pursuant
to this Amendment and (ii) nothing in the Credit Agreement, this Amendment or
any other Loan Document shall be deemed to require the consent of such Credit
Support Party to any future amendments to the Credit Agreement.

Section 7.    Miscellaneous.

         A.   Reference to and Effect on the Credit Agreement and the Other Loan Documents.

                  (1) On and after the Nineteenth Amendment Effective Date, each
         reference in the Credit Agreement to "this Agreement", "hereunder,"
         "hereof," "herein" or words of like import referring to the Credit
         Agreement, and each reference in the other Loan Documents to the
         "Credit Agreement," "thereunder," "thereof" or words of like import
         referring to the Credit Agreement shall mean and be a reference to the
         Amended Agreement.

                  (2) Except as specifically amended by this Amendment and the
         amendments to the Collateral Documents described in Section 1.6 hereof,
         the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain in full
         force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed.

         B.   Applicable Law.  THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A
CONTRACT MADE UNDER AND GOVERNED BY THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE
STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO SUCH LAWS RELATING TO
CONFLICTS OF LAWS.

         C.   Headings.  The various headings of this Amendment are inserted
for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this
Amendment or any provision hereof.

         D.   Counterparts.  This Amendment may be executed by the parties
hereto in several counterparts and by the different parties on separate
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which
shall constitute together but one and the same instrument; signature pages may
be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single
counterpart so that all signature pages are physically attached to the same
document.

         E.   Severability.  Any provision of this Amendment which is
prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such provision and
such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Amendment
or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provisions in any other
jurisdiction.

                  IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Amendment has been duly executed and
delivered as of the day and year first above written.

                  H. In addition, the Company, the Parent Guarantor, certain of
the Subsidiary Guarantors, certain other Subsidiaries of the Company and the
Collateral Agent have entered into amendments dated as of the date hereof to
certain of the Collateral Documents and the Subsidiary Guaranty in order to (i)

and the obligations of the Parent Guarantor and such Subsidiaries with respect
to the Cash Management Obligations by the Collateral.

                  I. The Lenders, the Currency Hedge Providers and the Cash
Management Providers have agreed that the Lien on the Collateral in favor of the
Cash Management Providers shall be subordinate to the Lien on the Collateral in

Management Providers and the Collateral Agent desire to amend and restate the

in favor of the Lenders securing the Bank Obligations and that each Currency
Hedge Provider's rights and remedies with respect to any Collateral shall be and
hereby are subordinate to the rights and remedies of the Lenders with respect
thereto in accordance with the terms hereof. Each Currency Hedge Provider agrees
that until the Bank Obligations have been paid in full, including the deposit of
available funds in an amount equal to the then aggregate Letter of Credit
Outstandings in the L/C Collateral Account in accordance with Section 5.8 of the
Credit Agreement and the Commitments of the Lenders under the Credit Agreement
have expired or been terminated, (a) no Currency Hedge Provider shall exercise
any right or remedy or assert any claims, in each case, with respect to any
Collateral, including, without limitation, seeking to foreclose on its junior
security interests therein pursuant to the terms of the Collateral Documents, as
a judgment creditor or otherwise and (b) no Currency Hedge Provider shall have
any right individually to seek to realize upon the security granted by or any
guaranty provided by any Collateral Agreement, it being understood and agreed
that such rights and remedies may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent
for the benefit of the Currency Hedge Providers in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement and the Collateral Agreements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i)
the Currency Hedge Providers shall be entitled to demand and retain all payments
made by the Company from time to time under the Currency Hedge Agreements

Collateral and (ii) the Currency Hedge Providers shall be entitled to file a
proof of claim with respect to the Currency Hedge Obligations in any proceedings
under Title 11 of the United States Code by or against the Company, the Parent
Guarantor or any Subsidiary of the Company. If any Lien described in this
Agreement is determined to be avoidable under federal bankruptcy or applicable
state law, the priority granted such Lien in this Section 2 shall automatically
be void and ineffective and this Agreement automatically shall cease to apply to
such avoidable Lien.

                  3. Agreement by Cash Management Providers to Subordinate
Liens. The Lenders, the Currency Hedge Providers and the Cash Management
Providers agree that the Liens on the Collateral in favor of any Cash Management
Provider securing the Cash Management Obligations shall be and hereby are
subordinate to the Liens on the Collateral in favor of the Lenders securing the
Bank Obligations and the Currency Hedge Providers securing the Currency Hedge
Obligations and that each Cash Management Provider's rights and remedies with
respect to any Collateral shall be and hereby are subordinate to the rights and
remedies of the Lenders and the Currency Hedge Providers with respect thereto in
accordance with the terms hereof. Each Cash Management Provider agrees that
until the Bank Obligations and the Currency Hedge Obligations have been paid in
full, including the deposit of available funds in an amount equal to the then
aggregate Letter of Credit Outstandings in the L/C Collateral Account in
accordance with Section 5.8 of the Credit Agreement and the Commitments of the
Lenders under the Credit Agreement have expired or been terminated, (a) no Cash
Management Provider shall exercise any right or remedy or assert any claims, in
each case, with respect to any Collateral, including, without limitation,
seeking to foreclose on its junior security interests therein pursuant to the
terms of the Collateral Documents, as a judgment creditor or otherwise and (b)
no Cash Management Provider shall have any right individually to seek to realize
upon the security granted by or any guaranty provided by any Collateral
Agreement, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be
exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Cash Management
Providers in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Collateral
Agreements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Cash Management Providers
shall be entitled to demand and retain all payments made by the Company from
time to time in connection with the Cash Management Services notwithstanding the
fact that such payments constitute a transfer of cash Collateral and (ii) the
Cash Management Providers shall be entitled to file a proof of claim with
respect to the Cash Management Obligations in any proceedings under Title 11 of
the United States Code by or against the Company, the Parent Guarantor or any
Subsidiary of the Company. If any Lien described in this Agreement is determined
to be avoidable under federal bankruptcy or applicable state law, the priority
granted such Lien in this Section 3 shall automatically be void and ineffective
and this Agreement automatically shall cease to apply to such avoidable Lien.

                  4. Allocation of Proceeds. The Proceeds of any Collateral, or
of the disposition by the Collateral Agent of any of the Collateral (including
insurance benefits) shall be applied by the Collateral Agent, in the following
order of priority:

                  First, to the payment of the costs and expenses of such
disposition, including the reasonable costs and out-of-pocket expenses of the
Collateral Agent and attorneys' fees and costs and out-of-pocket expenses of
counsel (including allocated costs of in-house counsel) employed in connection
therewith and to the payment of all advances made by the Collateral Agent for
the account of any Obligor under the Collateral Agreements and to the payment of
all reasonable costs and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent
in connection with the administration and enforcement of this Agreement and the
Collateral Agreements, to the extent that such advances, costs and expenses
shall not have been reimbursed to the Collateral Agent;

                  Second, toward the satisfaction of the Bank Obligations other
than Obligations in respect of principal and Reimbursement Obligations;

                  Third, toward the satisfaction of the Bank Obligations in
respect of principal and Reimbursement Obligations, including the deposit of
available funds in an amount equal to the then aggregate Letter of Credit
Outstandings in the L/C Collateral Account in accordance with Section 5.8 of the
Credit Agreement;

                  Fourth, toward the satisfaction of the Currency Hedge
Obligations (other than any Subordinated Currency Hedge Obligations) on a
ratable basis according to each Currency Hedge Provider's Currency Hedge Pro
Rata Share;

                  Fifth, toward the satisfaction of any Subordinated Currency
Hedge Obligations on a ratable basis according to each Currency Hedge Provider's
Subordinated Currency Hedge Pro Rata Share;

                  Sixth, toward the satisfaction of the Cash Management
Obligations on a ratable basis according to each Cash Management Provider's Cash
Management Pro Rata Share; provided, however, that no Proceeds of any U.S. Fixed
Assets (as defined in the Senior Indenture, the New Senior Indenture or the
Additional New Senior Indentures), or of the disposition by the Collateral Agent
of any U.S. Fixed Assets, shall be applied toward the satisfaction of Cash
Management Obligations constituting Indebtedness (as defined in the Senior
Indenture, the New Senior Indenture or the Additional New Senior Indentures);
and

                  Seventh, any surplus to be paid to each Obligor, their
respective successors and assigns, as their interests may appear, or as
otherwise required by law.

Each Currency Hedge Provider will, promptly upon the request of the Collateral
Agent from time to time, notify the Collateral Agent of the remaining Dollar
amount (or Dollar Equivalent thereof) of all currency payments that the
Company is obligated to make under all Currency Hedge Agreements to which such
Currency Hedge Provider is a party and of the amount payable by the Company upon
early termination of all Currency Hedge Agreements to which such Currency Hedge
Provider is a party. Each Cash Management Provider will, promptly upon the
request of the Collateral Agent from time to time, notify the Collateral Agent
of the amount of all payments that the Company is obligated to make in
connection with all Cash Management Services then being provided by such Cash
Management Provider. The Collateral Agent may rely without inquiry or
investigation on any such notices, which notices shall be conclusive and
binding, absent manifest error, for all purposes (including but not limited
to the distribution of funds) hereunder and under each of the Collateral
Agreements.

                  5. Certain Actions by Currency Hedge Providers Regarding the
Collateral. Unless and until the Bank Obligations have been paid in full,
including the deposit of available funds in an amount equal to the then
aggregate Letter of Credit Outstandings in the L/C Collateral Account in
accordance with Section 5.8 of the Credit Agreement and the Commitments of the
Lenders under the Credit Agreement have expired or been terminated, (i) the
Currency Hedge Providers shall have no right or authority to direct any action
or inaction by the Collateral Agent and (ii) notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 4 hereof, each Currency Hedge Provider authorizes the Collateral Agent,
without the further consent of the Currency Hedge Providers, to consent to the
sale, transfer or other disposition by the Obligors of all or any part of the
Collateral in accordance with the Credit Agreement or the Collateral Agreements
free and clear of the Liens of the Lenders and the Currency Hedge Providers;
provided that the Lien of the Currency Hedge Providers shall, subject to the
priorities established in Section 2 hereof, attach to any and all Proceeds
thereof unless (A) such sale, transfer or other disposition is also undertaken
free and clear of all Liens of the Lenders, and (B) no portion of the Proceeds
thereof is subject to the continued Lien of the Lenders or required to be
applied to any of the Bank Obligations.

                  6. Certain Actions by Cash Management Providers Regarding the
Collateral. Unless and until the Bank Obligations and the Currency Hedge
Obligations have been paid in full, including the deposit of available funds in
an amount equal to the then aggregate Letter of Credit Outstandings in the L/C
Collateral Account in accordance with Section 5.8 of the Credit Agreement and
the Commitments of the Lenders under the Credit Agreement have expired or been
terminated, (i) the Cash Management Providers shall have no right or authority
to direct any action or inaction by the Collateral Agent and (ii)
notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4 hereof, each Cash Management
Provider authorizes the Collateral Agent, without the further consent of the
Cash Management Providers, to consent to the sale, transfer or other disposition
by the Obligors of all or any part of the Collateral in accordance with the
Credit Agreement or the Collateral Agreements free and clear of the Liens of the
Lenders, the Currency Hedge Providers and the Cash Management Providers;
provided that the Lien of the Cash Management Providers shall, subject to the
priorities established in Section 3 hereof, attach to any and all Proceeds
thereof unless (A) such sale, transfer or other disposition is also undertaken
free and clear of all Liens of the Lenders and the Currency Hedge Providers, and
(B) no portion of the Proceeds thereof is subject to the continued Lien of the
Lenders or the Currency Hedge Providers or required to be applied to any of the
Bank Obligations or any of the Currency Hedge Obligations.

                  7. Foreclosure Proceedings. In any foreclosure proceeding
concerning any Collateral, each holder of an Obligation if bidding for its own
account or for its own account and the accounts of other Creditors is prohibited
from including in the amount of its bid an amount to be applied as a credit
against the Obligations held by it or the Obligations held by the other
Creditors; instead, such holder must bid in cash only. However, in any such
foreclosure proceeding, the Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to)
submit a bid for all Creditors in the form of a credit against the Obligations.
If in any foreclosure proceedings concerning any Collateral the Collateral
Agent, any Lender, any Currency Hedge Provider or any Cash Management Provider
accepts a transfer, conveyance or assignment of title to any of the Collateral,
it shall accept such transfer, conveyance or assignment of title only for the
benefit of all of the Creditors.

                  8. Independent Rights of the Lenders. The Collateral Agent and
the Lenders may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or
notice to any Currency Hedge Provider or any Cash Management Provider, and
without impairing or releasing the obligations of the Currency Hedge Providers
or the Cash Management Providers hereunder (a) change the manner, place or terms
of payment or change or extend the time of payment of, or renew, increase or
alter, the Bank Obligations or the security therefor, or otherwise amend (or
direct the Collateral Agent to amend) in any manner any of the Loan Documents;
(b) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Company and
others; (c) apply any sums by whomsoever paid or however realized to the Bank
Obligations; (d) sell, exchange, release, surrender, realize upon or otherwise
deal with in any manner and in any order any Property whatsoever and by
whomsoever at any time pledged or mortgaged to secure, or however securing, any
Bank Obligations; (e) release anyone liable in any manner for the payment or
collection of any Bank Obligations; and (f) settle or compromise all or any part
of the Bank Obligations. Except as provided in Section 2 hereof, no invalidity,
irregularity or unenforceability of all or any part of the Bank Obligations or
of any of the Liens securing the Bank Obligations shall affect, impair or be a
defense to this Agreement.

                  9. Independent Rights of the Currency Hedge Providers. The
Currency Hedge Providers may, at any time and from time to time, without the
consent of or notice to any Cash Management Provider, and without impairing or
releasing the obligations of the Cash Management Providers hereunder (a) change
the manner, place or terms of payment or change or extend the time of payment
of, or renew, increase or alter, the Currency Hedge Obligations or the security
therefor, or otherwise amend in any manner any of the Currency Hedge Agreements;
(b) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Company and
others; (c) apply any sums by whomsoever paid or however realized to the

settle or compromise all or any part of the Currency Hedge Obligations. Except
as provided in Section 3 hereof, no invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability
of all or any part of the Currency Hedge Obligations or of any of the Liens
securing the Currency Hedge Obligations shall affect, impair or be a defense to
this Agreement.

                  10. Defaults Under Currency Hedge Obligations. Nothing
contained in this Agreement shall restrict or impair the right or power of any
Currency Hedge Provider to declare a default, an Event of Default (as defined in
any Currency Hedge Agreement) or a termination event when such Currency Hedge
Provider deems it appropriate under and in accordance with the terms of the
applicable Currency Hedge Agreement or to net amounts payable under Currency
Hedge Obligations owing to such Currency Hedge Provider; provided, however, such
declaration or termination shall not permit any Currency Hedge Provider to
exercise any rights with respect to, or to realize on, the Collateral, except as
specifically provided herein. Any Currency Hedge Provider declaring a default,
an Event of Default (as defined in any Currency Hedge Agreement) or a
termination event shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent by telephone, and
confirm such act in writing, within three (3) Business Days, in the manner set
forth in Section 20 hereof; provided, however, that any failure by any Currency
Hedge Lender to so notify the Collateral Agent shall not affect the validity of
any such declaration or termination.

                  11. Defaults Under Cash Management Obligations. Nothing
contained in this Agreement shall restrict or impair the right or power of any
Cash Management Provider to declare a default when such Cash Management Provider
deems it appropriate in respect of the applicable Cash Management Services;
provided, however, such declaration shall not permit any Cash Management
Provider to exercise any rights with respect to, or to realize on, the
Collateral, except as specifically provided herein. Any Cash Management Provider
declaring a default shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent by telephone, and
confirm such act in writing, within three (3) Business Days, in the manner set
forth in Section 20 hereof; provided, however, that any failure by any Cash
Management Provider to so notify the Collateral Agent shall not affect the
validity of any such declaration or termination.

                  12. Effect of Bankruptcy. This Agreement shall remain in full
force and effect notwithstanding the filing of a petition for relief by or
against the Company, the Parent Guarantor or any Subsidiary of the Company under
Title 11 of the United States Code and shall apply with full force and effect
with respect to all Collateral acquired by the Company, the Parent Guarantor or
any Subsidiary of the Company, or obligations incurred by the Company to any
Creditor under the Credit Agreement, the Currency Hedge Agreements, the
Collateral Agreements or in respect of the Cash Management Services subsequent
to the date of any such petition.

                  13. Appointment of Collateral Agent by Lenders. Pursuant to
Article XI of the Credit Agreement, the Lenders have appointed Bank of America
as agent under and for purposes of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. The Lenders hereby confirm such appointment on the terms and
conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement and appoint Bank of America as
their agent for purposes of this Agreement on the same terms and conditions.
Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to amend the terms of the Credit
Agreement relating to the rights and duties of the Collateral Agent and the
Lenders as provided in the Credit Agreement and to the extent that the terms of
this Agreement are inconsistent with the Credit Agreement, the Credit Agreement
shall govern.

                  14. Appointment of Collateral Agent by Currency Hedge
Providers.

                  (a) Each Currency Hedge Provider hereby appoints Bank of
America as its agent under and for purposes of this Agreement and the Collateral
Agreements. Each Currency Hedge Provider irrevocably authorizes, and each
assignee of any Currency Hedge Provider shall be deemed to authorize, the
Collateral Agent to act on behalf of such Currency Hedge Provider under this
Agreement and the Collateral Agreements and each Currency Hedge Provider
irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such actions on its behalf
and to exercise such powers hereunder and thereunder as are in each case
specifically delegated to or required of the Collateral Agent by the terms
hereof or thereof, together which such powers as may be reasonably incidental
thereto.

                  (b) Each Currency Hedge Provider hereby acknowledges and
agrees that the Collateral Agent is the agent for the Lenders under the Credit
Agreement and that nothing contained in this Agreement, or in the appointment of
Bank of America as Collateral Agent, is intended to limit or restrict, in any
manner, the Collateral Agent's rights and discretion when acting in its capacity
as agent for the Lenders under the Credit Agreement, regardless of any effect
the exercise of such rights and discretion may have on the Currency Hedge
Providers. In addition, each Currency Hedge Provider hereby acknowledges and
agrees that until the Bank Obligations have been paid in full, including the
deposit of available funds in an amount equal to the then aggregate Letter of
Credit Outstandings in the L/C Collateral Account in accordance with Section 5.8
of the Credit Agreement and the Commitments of the Lenders under the Credit
Agreement have expired or been terminated, the Collateral Agent may act as
Majority Lenders, Required Lenders or all Lenders, as the case may be, may
request and that neither the Collateral Agent nor any Lender shall have any
liability to any Currency Hedge Provider with respect to any such request.

                  (c) The Collateral Agent shall not have by reason of this
Agreement or any Collateral Agreement a fiduciary relationship in respect of any
Currency Hedge Provider; and nothing in this Agreement or any Collateral
Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to
impose upon the Collateral Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or
any Collateral Agreement except as expressly set forth herein or therein.

                  (d) The Collateral Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge
of the occurrence of a default, an Event of Default (as defined in any Currency
Hedge Agreement) or a termination event under any Currency Hedge Agreement, or
any breach of any of the Collateral Agreements unless, in each case, it shall
have received written notice thereof from a Currency Hedge Provider or from the
Company. Each Currency Hedge Provider acknowledges and agrees that the existence
of a default, an Event of Default (as defined in any Currency Hedge Agreement)
or a termination event under any Currency Hedge Agreement may not give rise to a
Default under the Credit Agreement and to the extent that such default, Event of
Default (as defined in any Currency Hedge Agreement) or termination event would
give rise to a Default under the Credit Agreement would not in any event
obligate the Collateral Agent or the Lenders to declare an Event of Default
under the Credit Agreement or cease extending credit to the Company thereunder.

                  (e) Bank of America and its successor as the Collateral Agent
shall have the same rights and powers with respect to the Currency Hedge
Agreements entered into by it or any of its Affiliates as any other Currency
Hedge Provider and may exercise the same as if it were not the Collateral Agent.
The terms "Currency Hedge Provider" and "Currency Hedge Providers" as used
herein shall include the Collateral Agent in its individual capacity.

                  (f) Each Currency Hedge Provider acknowledges that it has,
independently of the Collateral Agent, each Lender, each Cash Management
Provider and each other Currency Hedge Provider, and based on such Currency
Hedge Provider's review of the financial information of the Company and such
other documents, information, and investigations as such Currency Hedge Provider
has deemed appropriate, made its own credit decision to enter into a Currency
Hedge Agreement. Each Currency Hedge Provider also acknowledges that it will,
independently of the Collateral Agent, each Lender, each Cash Management
Provider and each other Currency Hedge Provider, and based on such other
documents, information, and investigations as it shall deem appropriate at any
time, continue to make its own credit decisions as to exercising or not
exercising from time to time any rights and privileges available to it under
this Agreement, any Collateral Agreement or any Currency Hedge Agreement.

                  15. Appointment of Collateral Agent by Cash Management
Providers.

                  (a) Each Cash Management Provider hereby appoints Bank of
America as its agent under and for purposes of this Agreement and the Collateral
Agreements. Each Cash Management Provider irrevocably authorizes, and each
assignee of any Cash Management Provider shall be deemed to authorize, the
Collateral Agent to act on behalf of such Cash Management Provider under this
Agreement and the Collateral Agreements and each Cash Management Provider
irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such actions on its behalf
and to exercise such powers hereunder and thereunder as are in each case
specifically delegated to or required of the Collateral Agent by the terms
hereof or thereof, together which such powers as may be reasonably incidental
thereto.

                  (b) Each Cash Management Provider hereby acknowledges and
agrees that the Collateral Agent is the agent for the Lenders under the Credit
Agreement and the Currency Hedge Providers and that nothing contained in this
Agreement, or in the appointment of Bank of America as Collateral Agent, is
intended to limit or restrict, in any manner, the Collateral Agent's rights and
discretion when acting in its capacity as agent for the Lenders under the Credit
Agreement or the Currency Hedge Providers, regardless of any effect the exercise
of such rights and discretion may have on the Cash Management Providers. In
addition, each Cash Management Provider hereby acknowledges and agrees that
until the Bank Obligations and the Currency Hedge Obligations have been paid in
full, including the deposit of available funds in an amount equal to the then
aggregate Letter of Credit Outstandings in the L/C Collateral Account in
accordance with Section 5.8 of the Credit Agreement and the Commitments of the
Lenders under the Credit Agreement have expired or been terminated, the
Collateral Agent may act as Majority Lenders, Required Lenders, all Lenders or
Required Currency Hedge Providers, as the case may be, may request and that
neither the Collateral Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability to any Cash
Management Provider with respect to any such request.

                  (c) The Collateral Agent shall not have by reason of this
Agreement or any Collateral Agreement a fiduciary relationship in respect of any
Cash Management Provider; and nothing in this Agreement or any Collateral
Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to
impose upon the Collateral Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or
any Collateral Agreement except as expressly set forth herein or therein.

                  (d) The Collateral Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge
of the occurrence of a default in respect of any Cash Management Services, or
any breach of any of the Collateral Agreements unless, in each case, it shall
have received written notice thereof from a Cash Management Provider or from the
Company. Each Cash Management Provider acknowledges and agrees that the
existence of a default in respect of any Cash Management Services may not give
rise to a Default under the Credit Agreement and to the extent that such default
would give rise to a Default under the Credit Agreement would not in any event
obligate the Collateral Agent or the Lenders to declare an Event of Default
under the Credit Agreement or cease extending credit to the Company thereunder.

                  (e) Bank of America and its successor as the Collateral Agent
shall have the same rights and powers with respect to the Cash Management
Services provided by it or any of its Affiliates as any other Cash Management
Provider and may exercise the same as if it were not the Collateral Agent. The
terms "Cash Management Provider" and "Cash Management Providers" as used herein
shall include the Collateral Agent in its individual capacity.

                  (f) Each Cash Management Provider acknowledges that it has,
independently of the Collateral Agent, each Lender, each Currency Hedge Provider
and each other Cash Management Provider, and based on such Cash Management
Provider's review of the financial information of the Company and such other
documents, information, and investigations as such Cash Management Provider has
deemed appropriate, made its own credit decision to provide Cash Management
Services. Each Cash Management Provider also acknowledges that it will,
independently of the Collateral Agent, each Lender, each Currency Hedge Provider
and each other Cash Management Provider, and based on such other documents,
information, and investigations as it shall deem appropriate at any time,
continue to make its own credit decisions as to exercising or not exercising
from time to time any rights and privileges available to it under this
Agreement, any Collateral Agreement or in respect of any Cash Management
Services.

                  16. The Collateral Agent.

                  (a) The Collateral Agent shall, at all times prior to the
payment in full of the Bank Obligations and the expiration or termination of the
Commitments of the Lenders under the Credit Agreement, be the same Person that
is the Agent under the Credit Agreement. Written notice of resignation by the
Agent pursuant to Section 11.4 of the Credit Agreement shall also constitute
notice of resignation as the Collateral Agent under this Agreement; removal of
the Agent pursuant to Section 11.4 of the Credit Agreement, and appointment of a
successor Agent pursuant to Section 11.4 of the Credit Agreement, shall also
constitute appointment of a successor Collateral Agent hereunder and such
successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all
the rights, powers, privileges, and duties of the retiring or removed Collateral
Agent under this Agreement. After any retiring or removed Collateral Agent's
resignation or removal hereunder as Collateral Agent, the provisions of this
Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be
taken by it under this Agreement while it was the Collateral Agent hereunder.
After the payment in full of the Bank Obligations and the expiration or
termination of the Commitments of the Lenders under the Credit Agreement, the
Required Currency Hedge Providers may appoint one of the Currency Hedge
Providers or a commercial banking institution organized under the laws of the
United States (or any state thereof) or a United States branch or agency of a
foreign commercial banking institution, and having a combined capital and
surplus of at least $500,000,000, as a successor Collateral Agent which shall
thereupon become the Collateral Agent hereunder. After the payment in full of
the Bank Obligations, the expiration or termination of the Commitments of the
Lenders under the Credit Agreement and the payment in full of the Currency Hedge
Obligations, the Required Cash Management Providers may appoint one of the Cash
Management Providers or a commercial banking institution organized under the
laws of the United States (or any state thereof) or a United States branch or
agency of a foreign commercial banking institution, and having a combined
capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000, as a successor Collateral Agent
which shall thereupon become the Collateral Agent hereunder.

                  (b) Whenever the Collateral Agent shall deem it necessary or
prudent in order either to conform to any law of any jurisdiction in which all
or any part of the Collateral shall be situated or to make any claim or bring
any suit with respect to the Collateral or the Collateral Documents, or in the
event that the Collateral Agent shall have been requested to do so by Majority
Lenders, Required Lenders or all Lenders, as the case may be, or, following the
payment in full of the Bank Obligations, including the deposit of available
funds in an amount equal to the aggregate Letter of Credit Outstandings in the
L/C Collateral Account in accordance with Section 5.8 of the Credit Agreement
and the expiration or termination of the Commitments of the Lenders under the
Credit Agreement, the Required Currency Hedge Providers, or, following the
payment in full of the Currency Hedge Obligations, the Required Cash Management
Providers, the Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver a supplemental
agreement and all other instruments and agreements necessary or proper to
constitute another bank or trust company, or one or more Persons approved by the
Collateral Agent, either to act as Collateral Agent or agents with respect to
all or any part of the Collateral, in any such case with such powers of the
Collateral Agent as may be provided in such supplemental agreement, and to vest
in such bank, trust company or Person as such Collateral Agent or separate
trustee, as the case may be, any Property, title, right, or power of the
Collateral Agent deemed necessary or advisable.

                  (c) (i) To the extent that the Collateral Agent becomes
concerned that the exercise of any remedies or any action taken or omitted to be
taken by it in connection with any Collateral shall subject it to the
possibility of any liability, cost, or expense which it deems to be significant,
arising under any law, rules, or regulations relating to hazardous or toxic
wastes or materials, the Collateral Agent may, without liability to any Currency
Hedge Provider or any Cash Management Provider or other party to this Agreement
or any Collateral Agreement, or any other Person, decline to accept, abandon,
forfeit, or release such Collateral regardless of any effect such declination,
abandonment, forfeiture, or release may have upon the Currency Hedge Providers
or the Cash Management Providers, or otherwise, if either (A) the Collateral
Agent is requested to decline to accept, abandon, forfeit, or release such
Collateral by Majority Lenders, Required Lenders or all Lenders, as the case may
be, or following the payment in full of the Bank Obligations, including the
deposit of available funds in an amount equal to the then aggregate Letter of
Credit Outstandings into the L/C Collateral Account in accordance with Section
5.8 of the Credit Agreement and the expiration or termination of the Commitments
of the Lenders under the Credit Agreement, the Required Currency Hedge
Providers, or, following the payment in full of all Currency Hedge Obligations,
the Required Cash Management Providers or (B) the Collateral Agent is not,
within thirty (30) days after making a specific proposal therefor, specifically
indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders, the Currency Hedge Providers or
the Cash Management Providers, as the case may be, or insured to its
satisfaction by a third party or parties for any liability, costs, and expenses
which might result therefrom.

                  (ii) In addition, if the Collateral Agent becomes concerned
that the inclusion of certain Property in the Collateral is not in the best
interests of the Collateral Agent or the Creditors, either because of potential
adverse legal implications (including the potential effects of California's "one
form of action", "anti-deficiency" and related rules of law which may apply in
connection with real property located in California) or potential liabilities,
costs, or expenses which the Collateral Agent deems to be significant that may
be imposed upon a Person secured by such Collateral, the Collateral Agent may,
without liability to any Currency Hedge Provider, any Cash Management Provider
or other party to this Agreement or any Collateral Agreement, or any other
Person, decline to accept, abandon, forfeit, or release such Collateral
regardless of any effect such declination, abandonment, forfeiture, or release
may have upon the Creditors or otherwise unless (A) the Collateral Agent is
requested to do otherwise by Majority Lenders, Required Lenders or all Lenders,
as the case may be, or, following the payment in full of the Bank Obligations,
including the deposit of available funds in an amount equal to the then
aggregate Letter of Credit Outstandings into the L/C Collateral Account in
accordance with Section 5.8 of the Credit Agreement and the expiration or
termination of the Commitments of the Lenders under the Credit Agreement, the
Required Currency Hedge Providers, or, following the payment in full of all
Currency Hedge Obligations, the Required Cash Management Providers and (B) the
Collateral Agent is, within thirty (30) days after making a specific proposal
therefor, specifically indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders, the
Currency Hedge Providers or the Cash Management Providers, as the case may be,
or insured to its satisfaction by a third party or parties for any liability,
costs, and expenses which might result therefrom.

                  17. Reliance. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely
upon any certification, notice or other communication (including any thereof by
telephone, telex, telegram or cable) believed by it to be genuine and correct
and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person and upon
advice and statements of legal counsel (which may be counsel for the Company),
independent accountants and other experts selected by the Collateral Agent. The
Collateral Agent shall not be required in any way to determine the identity or
authority of any Person delivering or executing the same.

                  18. Waiver of Rights of Currency Hedge Providers; Prohibition
on Contesting Liens. The Currency Hedge Providers irrevocably waive any right to
compel the Lenders to marshal assets of the Company, the Parent Guarantor, or
any Subsidiary of the Company or to object to the manner in which the Lenders
may seek to enforce the Liens granted in any of the Collateral, including,
without limitation, any right based on any duty to conduct any sale, lease,
exchange, transfer or other disposition of Collateral in a commercially
reasonable manner. The Currency Hedge Providers agree that they will not (and
waive any right to) contest or support any other Person in contesting, in any
action or proceeding or otherwise (including, without limitation, any federal or
state bankruptcy, insolvency or liquidation proceeding), the priority, validity
or enforceability of the Bank Obligations or any Lien held by the Lenders. In
addition, the Currency Hedge Providers agree that they will not (and waive any
right to) seek to have any Currency Hedge Obligation or any payment thereunder
characterized as an administrative expense or any other expense or claim that
would permit the payment thereof prior to the payment of the secured claims of
the Lenders in any federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or liquidation
proceeding; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be deemed to
be a waiver of any right of any Currency Hedge Provider to obtain relief under
Section 507(b) of Title 11 of the United States Code.

                  19. Waiver of Rights of Cash Management Providers; Prohibition
on Contesting Liens. The Cash Management Providers irrevocably waive any right
to compel the Lenders or the Currency Hedge Providers to marshal assets of the
Company, the Parent Guarantor, or any Subsidiary of the Company or to object to
the manner in which the Lenders or the Currency Hedge Providers may seek to
enforce the Liens granted in any of the Collateral, including, without
limitation, any right based on any duty to conduct any sale, lease, exchange,
transfer or other disposition of Collateral in a commercially reasonable manner.
The Cash Management Providers agree that they will not (and waive any right to)
contest or support any other Person in contesting, in any action or proceeding
or otherwise (including, without limitation, any federal or state bankruptcy,
insolvency or liquidation proceeding), the priority, validity or enforceability
of the Bank Obligations or any Lien held by the Lenders or the Currency Hedge
Obligations or any Lien held by the Currency Hedge Providers. In addition, the
Cash Management Providers agree that they will not (and waive any right to) seek
to have any Cash Management Obligation or any payment thereunder characterized
as an administrative expense or any other expense or claim that would permit the
payment thereof prior to the payment of the secured claims of the Lenders or the
Currency Hedge Providers in any federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or
liquidation proceeding; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall
be deemed to be a waiver of any right of any Cash Management Provider to obtain
relief under Section 507(b) of Title 11 of the United States Code.

                  20. Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein, all notices
and other communications provided to any party hereto under this Agreement shall
be in writing or by telex or by facsimile (followed promptly thereby by mailing
of such notice or communication) and addressed, delivered, or transmitted to
such party at its address, telex, or facsimile number set forth on the signature
pages hereof, or at such other address, telex, or facsimile number as may be
designated by such party in a notice to the other parties. Any notice, if
delivered by hand or if sent by mail or by overnight courier properly addressed
with postage prepaid, shall be deemed given when received; any notice, if
transmitted by telex or facsimile, shall be deemed given when transmitted
(answerback confirmed in the case of telexes).

                  21. Modification, Amendment. No amendment to, modification or
waiver of, or consent with respect to, any provision of this Agreement shall in
any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed and
delivered by the Collateral Agent, the Lenders, the Currency Hedge Providers and
the Cash Management Providers. Nothing contained in this Agreement, however,
shall be construed to require the approval of all Lenders, any Currency Hedge
Provider or any Cash Management Provider to any amendment to the Credit
Agreement or any of the Collateral Agreements.

                  22. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is
prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such provision and
such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement
or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other
jurisdiction.

                  23. Additional Currency Hedge Agreements and Cash Management
Services. Any Lender may secure Currency Hedge Obligations or Cash Management
Obligations by signing an acknowledgment in the form contained on the signature
pages hereof and by delivering a signed counterpart hereof to the Collateral
Agent by which each such Lender agrees to be bound by the terms of this
Agreement.

                  24. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of the Creditors, the Collateral Agent and their
respective trustees, receivers, successors and assigns; no other Person
(including but not limited to the Company), shall be entitled to rely on or
raise as a defense any provision of this Agreement in any manner whatsoever.

                  25. Transferees. No Currency Hedge Provider shall sell, assign
or transfer any of its Liens on the Collateral securing Currency Hedge
Obligations or any interest in the Currency Hedge Obligations except to another
Currency Hedge Provider. No Cash Management Provider shall sell, assign or
transfer any of its Liens on the Collateral securing Cash Management Obligations
or any interest in the Cash Management Obligations except to another Cash
Management Provider.

                  26. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be deemed to be a
contract made under and governed by the internal laws of the State of New York.

                  27. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed
by the parties hereto in several counterparts and by the different parties on
separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all
of which shall constitute together but one and the same Agreement; signature
pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a
single counterpart so that all signature pages are physically attached to the
same document.

                  28. Termination. This Agreement shall continue in full force
and effect until the payment in full of the Obligations and (a) the Commitments
of the Lenders under the Credit Agreement have expired or have terminated, (b)
all of the Currency Hedge Agreements have terminated and (c) the provision of
Cash Management Services has been terminated.

                  29. Further Assurances. The Creditors shall each execute and
deliver to the Collateral Agent such other and further documents and instruments
(in recordable form, if requested) as may be necessary or desirable to implement
fully or evidence further the provisions of this Agreement.

                  30. Acknowledgments by Lenders and Currency Hedge Providers.

                  (c) The Company has agreed with the Lenders that it will not
enter into any Currency Hedge Agreement containing any provision that permits
the Currency Hedge Provider party thereto to terminate the Currency Hedge
Agreement, or liquidate or close-out any obligations thereunder, solely as a
result of the occurrence of any Default under the Credit Agreement unless the
Agent, as a result of such Default and upon the direction of the Majority
Lenders, shall have declared all of the outstanding principal amount of the
Loans and other Bank Obligations to be due and payable.

                  31. Acknowledgments by Lenders, Currency Hedge Providers and
Cash Management Providers. The Lenders, the Currency Hedge Providers and the
Cash Management Providers acknowledge the following:

                  (a) Amendments to the UCC-1 Financing Statements filed
pursuant to Section 7.1.6 of the Credit Agreement, substantially in the form of

sole and absolute discretion, may approve, may be filed; and

                  (b) Endorsements to all title insurance policies issued to the
Lenders pursuant to Section 7.1.8 of the Credit Agreement may be issued in favor

                  Section 2.  Parent Guarantor's Representations and Warranties.

                  In order to induce the Agent to enter into this Amendment and
to amend the Parent Security Agreement in the manner provided herein, and to
induce the Required Lenders to consent to such action by the Agent, the Parent
Guarantor represents and warrants to each Lender and the Agent that, as of the
Nineteenth Amendment Effective Date (as defined in the Nineteenth Amendment)
after giving effect to the effectiveness of this Amendment, the following
statements are true and correct in all material respects:

                  A. Authorization of Agreements. The execution and delivery of
this Amendment by the Parent Guarantor and the performance of the Parent
Security Agreement as amended by this Amendment (the "Amended Agreement") by the
Parent Guarantor are within the Parent Guarantor's corporate powers and have
been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Parent
Guarantor.

                  B. No Conflict. The execution and delivery by the Parent
Guarantor of this Amendment and the performance by the Parent Guarantor of the
Amended Agreement do not: (1) contravene the Parent Guarantor's Organic
Documents; (2) contravene the Senior Indenture, the New Senior Indenture, the
Additional New Senior Indentures or the Subordinated Indenture, or contravene
any other contractual restriction where such a contravention has a reasonable
possibility of having a Materially Adverse Effect or contravene any law or
governmental regulation or court decree or order binding on or affecting the
Parent Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries; or (3) result in, or require the
creation or imposition of, any Lien on any of the Parent Guarantor's properties,
other than pursuant to the Loan Documents.

                  C. Binding Obligation. This Amendment has been duly executed
and delivered by the Parent Guarantor and this Amendment and the Amended
Agreement constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Parent
Guarantor, enforceable against the Parent Guarantor in accordance with their
respective terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors'
rights generally and by general principles of equity.

                  D. Governmental Approval, Regulation, etc. No authorization or
approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental
authority or regulatory body or other Person is required for the due execution,
delivery or performance of this Amendment by the Parent Guarantor.

                  Section 3. Miscellaneous.

                  A. Reference to and Effect on the Parent Security Agreement
and the Other Loan Documents.

                       (1) On and after the Nineteenth Amendment Effective Date, each
reference in the Parent Security Agreement to "this Agreement", "hereunder",
"hereof", "herein" or words of like import referring to the Parent Security
Agreement, and each reference in the other Loan Documents to the "Parent
Security Agreement", "thereunder", "thereof" or words of like import referring
to the Parent Security Agreement shall mean and be a reference to the Amended
Agreement.

                       (2) Except as specifically amended by this Amendment, the Parent
Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and is hereby ratified
and confirmed.

                       (3) The execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment
shall not, except as expressly provided herein, constitute a waiver of any provision of,
or operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of the Agent or any Lender
under, the Parent Security Agreement.

                  B. Applicable Law. THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A
CONTRACT MADE UNDER AND GOVERNED BY THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK,
WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO SUCH LAWS RELATING TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS.

                  C. Headings. The various headings of this Amendment are
inserted for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation
of this Amendment or any provision hereof.

                  D. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed by the parties
hereto in several counterparts and by the different parties on separate
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which
shall constitute together but one and the same instrument; signature pages may
be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single
counterpart so that all signature pages are physically attached to the same
document.

                  E. Severability. Any provision of this Amendment which is
prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such provision and
such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Amendment
or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provisions in any other
jurisdiction.

                  IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Amendment has been duly executed and
delivered as of the day and year first above written.

                  NOW, THEREFORE, with reference to the foregoing Recitals and
for valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, Trustor and Beneficiary further agree as follows:

                           1.   The definitions of "Lenders" and "Secured
                                Obligations" set forth in Exhibit C of the Deed
                                of Trust shall be amended to read in their
                                entirety as follows:

                           "'Lender' and 'Lenders' shall mean the Bank Lenders,
                  the Currency Hedge Providers (as defined in the Credit
                  Agreement) and the Cash Management Providers (as defined in
                  the Credit Agreement)."

                           "'Secured Obligations' means (A) all Obligations,
                  whether now existing or hereafter arising, of Trustor under or
                  in connection with the Credit Agreement or any other Loan
                  Documents, (B) all Obligations, whether now existing or
                  hereafter arising, of Trustor under or in connection with the
                  Currency Hedge Agreements (as defined in the Credit Agreement)
                  and (C) all Obligations, whether now existing or hereafter
                  arising, of Trustor arising in connection with the Cash
                  Management Services (as defined in the Credit Agreement),
                  whether for advances, costs, fees, expenses, or otherwise;
                  provided, however, that the Secured Obligations shall not
                  include any Cash Management Obligation (as defined in the
                  Credit Agreement) constituting Indebtedness (as defined in the
                  Senior Indenture (as defined in the Credit Agreement), the
                  Additional New Senior Indenture (as defined in the Credit
                  Agreement) or the New Senior Indentures (as defined in the
                  Credit Agreement))."

                              2.       Section 3.9 of the Deed of Trust is hereby
                           amended to read in its entirety as follows:

                           First, to payment of the costs and expenses of
                  disposing of the Collateral and realizing Proceeds, including
                  the reasonable costs and out-of-pocket expenses of Beneficiary
                  and the Lenders, and attorneys' fees and costs and
                  out-of-pocket expenses of counsel employed in connection
                  therewith and to the payment of all advances made by
                  Beneficiary and the Lenders for the account of Trustor
                  hereunder and the payment of all reasonable costs and
                  out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Beneficiary in connection
                  with the administration and enforcement, and by any Lender in
                  connection with the enforcement, of this Deed of Trust, to the
                  extent that such advances, costs, and expenses shall not have
                  been reimbursed to Beneficiary or the Lenders, as the case may
                  be;

                           Second, toward the satisfaction of the Secured
                  Obligations other than Obligations in respect of principal and
                  Reimbursement Obligations, Currency Hedge Obligations and Cash
                  Management Obligations;

                           Third, toward the satisfaction of the Secured
                  Obligations in respect of principal and Reimbursement
                  Obligations, including the deposit of available funds in an
                  amount equal to the then aggregate Letter of Credit
                  Outstandings in the L/C Collateral Account in accordance with
                  Section 5.8 of the Credit Agreement;

                           Fourth, toward the satisfaction of the Currency Hedge
                  Obligations in the order agreed to by the Currency Hedge
                  Providers from time to time;

                           Fifth, toward the satisfaction of the Cash Management
                  Obligations that constitute Secured Obligations in the order
                  agreed to by the Cash Management Providers from time to time;
                  and

                           Sixth, any surplus to be paid to the Trustor, its
                  successors and assigns, or as a court of competent
                  jurisdiction may direct.

                                3. Trustor's obligations
                            evidenced by the Credit Agreement, as
                            amended by the Nineteenth Credit Agreement
                            Amendment, shall continue to be secured by
                            the Deed of Trust. Except as amended by this
                            Third Amendment, the Deed of Trust shall
                            remain unmodified and in full force and
                            effect. The parties hereto hereby ratify and
                            confirm the Deed of Trust as amended hereby.

                                4.  It is the intent of
                            each of the parties hereto that the Deed of
                            Trust, as modified and amended by the First
                            Amendment, the Second Amendment and this
                            Third Amendment, shall have and retain the
                            priority established at the time of its
                            original recordation on February 18, 1994
                            (the "ORIGINAL RECORDING DATE"). To the
                            extent that any court of law or equity
                            determines that the priority of this Third
                            Amendment may not relate back to the
                            Original Recording Date, then (i) this Third
                            Amendment shall be bifurcated from the Deed
                            of Trust such that the obligations of
                            Trustor with respect to the Cash Management
                            Services, secured by this Third Amendment,
                            shall have such priority as is established
                            at the time of recordation of this Third
                            Amendment in the Official Records of
                            __________ County, ______, and (ii) the Deed
                            of Trust, as unamended by this Third
                            Amendment, shall continue to secure the
                            obligations of Trustor under the Credit
                            Agreement, as unamended by the Nineteenth
                            Credit Agreement Amendment, and the other
                            Secured Obligations set forth in the Deed of
                            Trust, and shall continue to have the
                            priority described in paragraph 2 of the
                            Second Amendment. In no event shall this
                            Third Amendment destroy, impair or otherwise
                            affect the priority of the Deed of Trust
                            established on the Original Recording Date.

                                5.        This Third Amendment
                            shall be governed by and construed in
                            accordance with the laws in the State of
                            ______ without giving effect to the conflict
                            of law principles of said State.

                                6.        This Third Amendment
                            may be executed in counterparts, each of
                            which shall be deemed an original, but all
                            of which when taken together shall
                            constitute one and the same instrument. The
                            signature page of any counterpart may be
                            detached therefrom without impairing the
                            legal effect of the signature(s) thereon and
                            attached to any other counterpart identical
                            thereto except having additional signature
                            pages attached to it.

                                7.        In the event of any
                            inconsistencies between the provisions of
                            this Third Amendment and the provisions of
                            the Deed of Trust, the provisions of this
                            Third Amendment shall govern and prevail.

                                8.        The relationship of
                            Trustor and Beneficiary with respect to the
                            Loans and the matters set forth herein is
                            that of creditor and debtor respectively and
                            by virtue of entering into the Third Credit
                            Agreement Amendment and performing their
                            respective obligations thereunder, Trustor
                            and Beneficiary do not intend to form a
                            partnership or joint venture or any other
                            relationship other than that of creditor and
                            debtor respectively.

                  IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the duly authorized representatives of
Trustor and Beneficiary have executed this Third Amendment as of the date first
above written.

Mortgage, all as set forth in that certain Nineteenth Amendment to Credit

                  E. Mortgagor and Mortgagee desire to amend the Mortgage to
reflect and evidence the amendments and modifications set forth in the
Nineteenth Credit Agreement Amendment.

                  NOW, THEREFORE, with reference to the foregoing Recitals and
for valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, Mortgagor and Mortgagee further agree as follows:

                   1.    The definitions of "Lenders" and "Secured Obligations" set
forth in Exhibit C of the Mortgage shall be amended to read in their
entirety as follows:

                      "'Lender' and 'Lenders' shall mean the Bank Lenders, the
                   Currency Hedge Providers (as defined in the Credit Agreement)
                   and the Cash Management Providers (as defined in the Credit
                   Agreement)."

                      "'Secured Obligations' means (A) all Obligations, whether
                   now existing or hereafter arising, of Mortgagor under or in
                   connection with the Credit Agreement or any other Loan
                   Documents, (B) all Obligations, whether now existing or

                   Agreement) and (C) all Obligations, whether now existing or
                   hereafter arising, of Mortgagor arising in connection with
                   the Cash Management Services (as defined in the Credit
                   Agreement), whether for advances, costs, fees, expenses, or
                   otherwise; provided, however, that the Secured Obligations
                   shall not include any Cash Management Obligation (as defined
                   in the Credit Agreement) constituting Indebtedness (as

                   Agreement), the Additional New Senior Indenture (as defined
                   in the Credit Agreement) or the New Senior Indentures (as
                   defined in the Credit Agreement))."

                  2. Section 3.9 of the Mortgage is hereby amended to read in
its entirety as follows:

                  and the Lenders, and attorneys' fees and costs and
                  out-of-pocket expenses of counsel employed in connection
                  therewith and to the payment of all advances made by Mortgagee
                  and the Lenders for the account of Mortgagor hereunder and the
                  payment of all reasonable costs and out-of-pocket expenses
                  incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the administration
                  and enforcement, and by any Lender in connection with the
                  enforcement, of this Mortgage, to the extent that such
                  advances, costs, and expenses shall not have been reimbursed
                  to Mortgagee or the Lenders, as the case may be;

                     Second, toward the satisfaction of the Secured Obligations
                  other than Obligations in respect of principal and
                  Reimbursement Obligations, Currency Hedge Obligations and Cash
                  Management Obligations;

                     Third, toward the satisfaction of the Secured Obligations
                  in respect of principal and Reimbursement Obligations,
                  including the deposit of available funds in an amount equal to
                  the then aggregate Letter of Credit Outstandings in the L/C
                  Collateral Account in accordance with Section 5.8 of the
                  Credit Agreement;

                     Fourth, toward the satisfaction of the Currency Hedge
                  Obligations in the order agreed to by the Currency Hedge
                  Providers from time to time;

                     Fifth, toward the satisfaction of the Cash Management
                  Obligations that constitute Secured Obligations in the order
                  agreed to by the Cash Management Providers from time to time;
                  and

                     Sixth, any surplus to be paid to the Mortgagor, its
                  successors and assigns, or as a court of competent
                  jurisdiction may direct.

                3. Mortgagor's obligations evidenced by the Credit Agreement, as
amended by the Nineteenth Credit Agreement Amendment, shall continue to be
secured by the Mortgage. Except as amended by this Third Amendment, the Mortgage
shall remain unmodified and in full force and effect. The parties hereto hereby
ratify and confirm the Mortgage as amended hereby.

                4. It is the intent of each of the parties hereto that the
Mortgage, as modified and amended by the First Amendment, the Second Amendment
and this Third Amendment, shall have and retain the priority established at the
time of its original recordation on February 18, 1994 (the "ORIGINAL RECORDING
DATE"). To the extent that any court of law or equity determines that the
priority of this Third Amendment may not relate back to the Original Recording
Date, then (i) this Third Amendment shall be bifurcated from the Mortgage such
that the obligations of Mortgagor with respect to the Cash Management Services,
secured by this Third Amendment, shall have such priority as is established at
the time of recordation of this Third Amendment in the Official Records of _____
County, ___, and (ii) the Mortgage, as unamended by this Third Amendment, shall
continue to secure the obligations of Mortgagor under the Credit Agreement, as
unamended by the Nineteenth Credit Agreement Amendment, and the other Secured
Obligations set forth in the Mortgage, and shall continue to have the priority
described in paragraph 2 of the Second Amendment. In no event shall this Third
Amendment destroy, impair or otherwise affect the priority of the Mortgage
established on the Original Recording Date.

                 5. This Third Amendment shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws in the State of ___ without giving effect to the
conflict of law principles of said State.

                 6. This Third Amendment may be executed in counterparts, each
of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which when taken together shall
constitute one and the same instrument. The signature page of any counterpart
may be detached therefrom without impairing the legal effect of the signature(s)
thereon and attached to any other counterpart identical thereto except having
additional signature pages attached to it.

                 7. In the event of any inconsistencies between the provisions
of this Third Amendment and the provisions of the Mortgage, the provisions of
this Third Amendment shall govern and prevail.

                 8. The relationship of Mortgagor and Mortgagee with respect to
the Loans and the matters set forth herein is that of creditor and debtor
respectively and by virtue of entering into the Third Credit Agreement Amendment
and performing their respective obligations thereunder, Mortgagor and Mortgagee
do not intend to form a partnership or joint venture or any other relationship
other than that of creditor and debtor respectively.

                 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the duly authorized representatives of
Mortgagor and Mortgagee have executed this Third Amendment as of the date first
above written.

                  Section 2. Pledgors' Representations and Warranties.

                  In order to induce the Agent to enter into this Amendment and
to amend the Intercompany Note Pledge Agreement in the manner provided herein,
and to induce the Required Lenders to consent to such action by the Agent, each
Pledgor represents and warrants to each Lender and the Agent that, as of the
Nineteenth Amendment Effective Date (as defined in the Nineteenth Amendment)
after giving effect to the effectiveness of this Amendment, the following
statements are true and correct in all material respects:

                  A.       Authorization of Agreements.  The execution and
delivery of this Amendment by such Pledgor and the performance of the
Intercompany Note Pledge Agreement as amended by this Amendment (the "Amended
Agreement") by such Pledgor are within such Pledgor's corporate powers and have
been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of such Pledgor.

                  B.       No Conflict.  The execution and delivery by such
Pledgor of this Amendment and the performance by such Pledgor of the Amended
Agreement do not:

                           (1)      contravene such Pledgor's Organic Documents;

                           (2)      contravene the Senior Indenture, the New
Senior Indenture, the Additional New Senior Indentures or the Subordinated
Indenture or contravene any other contractual restriction where such a
contravention has a reasonable possibility of having a Materially Adverse Effect
or contravene any law or governmental regulation or court decree or order
binding on or affecting such Pledgor or any of its Subsidiaries; or

                           (3)      result in, or require the creation or
imposition of, any Lien on any of such Pledgor's properties, other than pursuant
to the Loan Documents.

                  C. Binding Obligation. This Amendment has been duly executed
and delivered by such Pledgor and this Amendment and the Amended Agreement
constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of such Pledgor, enforceable
against such Pledgor in accordance with their respective terms, except as may be
limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws
relating to or limiting creditors' rights generally and by general principles of
equity.

                  D. Governmental Approval, Regulation, etc. No authorization or
approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental
authority or regulatory body or other Person is required for the due execution,
delivery or performance of this Amendment by such Pledgor.

                  Section 3.  Miscellaneous.

                  A. Reference to and Effect on the Intercompany Note Pledge Agreement and
the Other Loan Documents.

                           (1) On and after the Nineteenth Amendment Effective
Date, each reference in the Intercompany Note Pledge Agreement to "this
Agreement", "hereunder", "hereof", "herein" or words of like import referring to
the Intercompany Note Pledge Agreement, and each reference in the other Loan
Documents to the "Intercompany Note Pledge Agreement", "thereunder", "thereof"
or words of like import referring to the Intercompany Note Pledge Agreement
shall mean and be a reference to the Amended Agreement.

                           (2) Except as specifically amended by this Amendment,
the Intercompany Note Pledge Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and
is hereby ratified and confirmed.

                           (3) The execution, delivery and performance of this
Amendment shall not, except as expressly provided herein, constitute a waiver of
any provision of, or operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of the
Agent or any Lender under, the Intercompany Note Pledge Agreement.

                  B. Applicable Law. THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A
CONTRACT MADE UNDER AND GOVERNED BY THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK,
WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO SUCH LAWS RELATING TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS.

                  C. Headings. The various headings of this Amendment are
inserted for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation
of this Amendment or any provision hereof.

                  D. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed by the parties
hereto in several counterparts and by the different parties on separate
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which
shall constitute together but one and the same instrument; signature pages may
be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single
counterpart so that all signature pages are physically attached to the same
document.

                  E. Severability. Any provision of this Amendment which is
prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such provision and
such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Amendment
or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provisions in any other
jurisdiction.

                  IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Amendment has been duly executed and
delivered as of the day and year first above written.
