accepted accounting principles either (i) applied consistently with those
referred to in Section 1.03 or (ii) applied in a changed manner that does not,
under generally accepted accounting principles or public reporting requirements
applicable to the Borrower, either require disclosure in the consolidated
financial statements of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries or
require the consent of the accountants which (as required by Section 5.03(b))
report on such financial statements for the fiscal year in which such change
shall have occurred, or (iii) applied in a changed manner not covered by clause
(ii) above provided such change shall have been disclosed to the Administrative
Agent and shall have been consented to by the accountants which (as required by
Section 5.03(b)) report on the consolidated financial statements of the Borrower
and its consolidated Subsidiaries for the fiscal year in which such change shall
have occurred, provided that if, notwithstanding the provisions
4
of Section 1.03, any change referred to in clause (ii) or (iii) above would
result in a covenant contained in Section 5.01 or 5.02 being calculated or
construed in a materially different manner or with materially different results

provisions of Section 1.03, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the
Borrower agree, upon request by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or by
the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, to amend the covenants contained in
Section 5.01 and 5.02 so that the relative protection afforded thereby to the
Lenders and the relative flexibility afforded thereby to the Borrower will in
substance be retained after such amendment, provided, however, that until such
amendment becomes effective hereunder, the covenants as set forth herein shall
remain in full force and effect and those definitions and accounting principles
applicable to the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries which do meet the
standards set forth in Section 1.03 shall be applied to determine whether or not
the Borrower is in compliance with such covenants."

consolidated Subsidiaries is less than 60% of Capitalization, provided that Debt
for borrowed money maturing within one year and evidenced by instruments

information presented in the financial statements accompanying such certificate
from what such information would have been if presented in accordance with the
generally accepted accounting principles referred to in Section 1.03, a
statement describing the nature of such change; provided that no such statement
shall be required to the extent (A) such description is set forth in such
financial statements or the notes thereto or (B) a statement with respect to

accordance with applicable securities laws, of reports and statements referred
to in clause (a), (b) or (e) above;".
