2. AMENDMENTS. Subject to PARAGRAPH 3 below but otherwise effective as
of the date of this amendment, the Credit Agreement is amended as follows:

(A) Extensions of Commitment Termination Date. In respect of the
Borrowers' request to allow for two-year extensions, to reduce the minimum for
Remaining Lenders to 65%, and to require additional documentation for an
extension to be at the Agents' request; SECTION 2.2 is entirely amended as
follows:

SECTION 2.2 EXTENSIONS OF THE COMMITMENT TERMINATION DATE.

(a) If the Commitment Termination Date has not
occurred, Micro may -- on any Business Day occurring after May
1st and before June 30th of the year (for purposes of this
SECTION 2.2, the "THEN-CURRENT YEAR") immediately preceding
the year in which the then-effective Commitment Termination
Date occurs -- deliver to each Lender (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent) three counterparts of a Commitment
Extension Request appropriately completed. That Commitment
Extension Request may be for a one-year (365-day or, if
appropriate, 366-day) period, for a two-year (730-day or, if
appropriate 731-day) period, or for one or both in the same
Commitment Extension Request (each a requested "EXTENSION
PERIOD"). The Commitment Extension Request shall be delivered
in accordance with SECTION 11.2, EXCEPT that acknowledgment of
receipt by the recipient is required before it is deemed to
have been delivered.

(i) By July 31st of the then-current
year, each Lender shall (by appropriately completing,
executing, and delivering to Micro and the
Administrative Agent the Commitment Extension Request
delivered to it) indicate whether or not it intends
to extend its Commitment pursuant to this SECTION 2.2
in respect of either of the one or two Extension
Periods requested by Micro. Any Lender failing to
return its Commitment Extension Request to Micro as
provided in the preceding sentence shall be deemed to
have declined the extension of its Commitment as
contemplated by this SECTION 2.2 in respect of each
of the Extension Periods requested by Micro.

(ii) By August 15th of the then-current
year, the Administrative Agent shall notify (for
purposes of this SECTION 2.2, the "LENDER BALLOT
NOTICE") all of the Lenders as to (A) the identity of
each Lender who has indicated its intention not to
extend its Commitment in respect of either of the one
or two Extension Periods requested by Micro
("WITHDRAWING LENDER"), (B) each Lender who has
agreed to extend its Commitment in respect of one or
both of the Extension Periods requested by Micro
("REMAINING LENDER"), and (C) which Remaining Lenders
have agreed to which Extension Period if two were
requested by Micro.

(b) IF, as of the date the Administrative Agent
delivers the Lender ballot notice, neither NationsBank nor
Scotiabank shall be a Remaining Lender and the Remaining
Lenders in respect of each Extension Period requested by Micro
shall hold less than a total of 65% of the Commitments, THEN,
by August 31st of the then-current year, each Remaining Lender
may revoke (by delivering written notice thereof to Micro and
the Administrative Agent) its consent to extension of its
Commitment for each of the Extension

2
FIRST AMENDMENT
5
Periods requested by Micro, thereby becoming a Withdrawing
Lender as of the day of that revocation.

(i) After the date that the
Administrative Agent delivers the Lender ballot
notice and by September 15th of the then-current
year, the Remaining Lenders may assume any
Withdrawing Lender's Commitment in proportion to
their respective share of those Remaining Lenders'
Commitments.

(ii) IF, as of September 30th of the
then-current year, the Remaining Lenders in respect
of each Extension Period requested by Micro hold less
than a total of 65% of the Commitments (after giving
effect to any assumptions of any Withdrawing Lenders'
Commitment under the preceding sentence on or before
that date), THEN (A) all of the Lenders' Commitments
shall terminate and (B) any Outstanding Credit
Extensions shall mature and be payable in full on the
then-effective Commitment Termination Date.

(iii) A one-year Extension Period does not
automatically become effective if a Commitment
Extension Request for a two-year period fails to
become effective as provided in this CLAUSE (b), and
VICE VERSA.

(c) IF, as of September 30th of the then-current
year, the Remaining Lenders in respect of an Extension Period
requested by Micro hold a total of at least 65% of the
Commitments (after giving effect to any assumptions of the
Commitments of any Withdrawing Lenders' Commitments under
CLAUSE (b) above on or before that date), THEN each Remaining
Lender's Commitment (including any Commitments assumed by any
Remaining Lender under CLAUSE (b) above) shall be extended for
that Extension Period from the then-effective Commitment
Termination Date, SUBJECT TO CLAUSE (f) below.

(i) IF the requirements for extension of
the Commitments shall be satisfied, THEN -- after
October 1st of the then-current year but by 30 days
before the then-effective Commitment Termination Date
-- Micro may enter into an agreement with one or more
new financial institutions reasonably acceptable to
the Agents or with any Remaining Lender to assume the
Withdrawing Lenders' Commitments that have not been
assumed under CLAUSE (b) above.

(ii) Any Commitments assumed by Remaining
Lenders or new financial institutions under CLAUSE
(I) above shall be extended for the foregoing
Extension Period from the then-effective Commitment
Termination Date, SUBJECT TO CLAUSE (f) below.

(iii) IF Micro requests both a one-year
and a two-year Extension Period and both would become
effective under this section, THEN the two-year
Extension Period shall become effective under this
section; PROVIDED THAT any Lender that did not agree
to a two-year Extension Period but that did agree to
a one-year Extension Period shall then become a
Withdrawing Lender.

3 FIRST AMENDMENT

(d) IF the Commitments are extended in accordance
with this section, THEN Outstanding Credit Extensions made by
any Withdrawing Lender that are not assumed or purchased under
CLAUSE (b) or (c) above shall mature and be payable in full on
the then-effective Commitment Termination Date, and the
Commitments of each such Withdrawing Lender shall thereupon
terminate.

(i) On the then-effective
Commitment Termination Date, the Total Credit
Commitment Amount shall be automatically
reduced by an amount equal to the PRODUCT of

Withdrawing Lenders that were not assumed or
purchased under CLAUSES (b) or (c) above
TIMES (B) the Total Credit Commitment Amount
on that Commitment Termination Date
immediately before that calculation.

Lenders shall be adjusted by the Administrative Agent
based upon each such Remaining Lender's PRO RATA
share of the remaining Total Credit Commitment
Amount.

Commitment or assume or purchase any Withdrawing Lender's
Commitment shall be exercised by it in its sole and absolute
discretion without reference to any stated desires of any
other Lender Party or Micro. All assignments made under this

EXCEPT that any such assignment (i) may be in any minimum or
multiple amount resulting from the operation of this SECTION
2.2 and (ii) shall not require the consent of Micro or the
Administrative Agent.

(f) Any extension of Commitments under this
SECTION 2.2 shall become effective only upon (i) the
satisfaction of the requirements for extension stated above
and (ii) the delivery by Micro to the Administrative Agent and
each Lender, on or before the then-effective Commitment
Termination Date, of (A) executed replacement Notes
reflecting, without limitation, any changes in the identity or
Percentages of the Lender Parties and the Total Credit
Commitment Amount, and (B) copies of such other legal
opinions, approvals, instruments, or documents as the Agents
may reasonably request. Upon their receipt of such
replacement Notes, the Remaining Lenders shall xxxx the
relevant predecessor Notes "EXCHANGED" and deliver them to
Micro.

Person) would have been, on a PRO FORMA basis, in
compliance with each of the covenants set forth in
SECTION 8.2.3 as of the last day of such period.

10 FIRST AMENDMENT
13
(J) Limitation on Acquisitions. In respect of the Borrowers' and
the Agents' desires to redefine the limitations on acquisitions:

(i) The definition of the term "Material Asset
Acquisition" in SECTION 1.1 is entirely amended as follows:

"MATERIAL ASSET ACQUISITION" (a) means the purchase
or other acquisition (in one transaction or a series of
related transactions) from any Person of property or assets,
the aggregate purchase price of which (calculated in Dollars)
paid in cash or property (other than property consisting of
equity shares or interests or other equivalents of corporate
stock of, or partnership or other ownership interests in, any
Obligor), equals or exceeds 25% of the SUM (calculated without
giving effect to such purchase or acquisition) of (i)
Consolidated Funded Debt (determined as at the end of the then
most recently ended Fiscal Period), PLUS (ii) Consolidated
Stockholders' Equity (determined as at the end of the then
most recently ended Fiscal Period), PLUS (iii) any increase
thereof attributable to any equity offerings or issuances of
capital stock occurring subsequent to the end of such Fiscal
Period and before any such purchase or acquisition, but (b)
does not mean a purchase or acquisition of property or assets
of the character described in and permitted under SECTION
8.2.9(c).

(ii) The definition of the term "Relevant Issuer" in
SECTION 1.1 is entirely deleted.

(iii) SECTION 8.2.7 is entirely amended as follows:

SECTION 8.2.7 LIMITATIONS ON ACQUISITIONS.

(a) No Borrower may make any Material
Asset Acquisition UNLESS (i) no Event of Default
exists or would exist after giving effect to the
proposed Material Asset Acquisition, (ii) before the
consummation of the proposed Material Asset
Acquisition, such Borrower notifies the
Administrative Agent that it intends to make the
proposed Material Asset Acquisition and reasonably
believes that it will be able to provide the
certification under CLAUSE (iii) below, and (iii)
before consummation of the proposed Material Asset
Acquisition, Micro delivers to the Administrative
Agent a certificate duly executed and delivered by an
Authorized Person of Micro, certifying that (A)
immediately upon and following the consummation of
the proposed Material Asset Acquisition, Micro will
be in compliance with each of SECTIONS 8.2.1 and
8.2.2 and (B) on a pro forma basis (assuming the
proposed Material Asset Acquisition had been
consummated on the first day of the most recently
ended period of four Fiscal Periods for which
financial statements have been or are required to
have been delivered pursuant to SECTION 8.1.1) Micro
would have been in compliance with SECTION 8.2.3 as
of the last day of such period.

(b) Without first providing the notice
to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders required
by this SECTION 8.2.7(b), the Borrowers shall not
(and shall not permit their respective Subsidiaries
to) acquire any outstanding stock of any U.S. or
non-U.S. corporation, limited company or similar
entity of which the

11 FIRST AMENDMENT
14
shares constitute Margin Stock if after giving effect
to such acquisition, Micro and its Affiliates shall
hold, in the aggregate, more than 5% of the total
outstanding stock of the issuer of such Margin Stock,
which notice shall include the name and jurisdiction
of organization of such relevant issuer, the market
on which such stock is traded, the total percentage
of such relevant issuer's stock currently held, and
the purpose for which the acquisition is being made.

(c) Notwithstanding any contrary
provision in this SECTION 8.2.7, the Borrowers shall
not (and shall not permit their respective
Subsidiaries to) (i) directly or indirectly use the
proceeds of any Pro-Rata Credit Extensions to make
any Acquisition UNLESS, if the board of directors of
the Person to be acquired has notified Micro or any
of its Subsidiaries that it opposes the offer by the
proposed purchaser to acquire that Person, THEN that
opposition has been withdrawn or (ii) make any
Acquisition UNLESS, if the proposed Acquisition is
structured as a merger or consolidation, THEN, it
will be consummated in compliance with SECTION 8.2.5.

(d) Execution and delivery of each
Continuation/Conversion Notice shall constitute
Micro's representation and warranty that it is not
then in violation of SECTION 8.2.7(c)(i). No
Borrower shall directly or indirectly use the
proceeds of any Non-Rata Credit Extension to make any
Acquisition if the board of directors of the Person
to be acquired has notified Micro or any of it
Subsidiaries that it opposes the offer by the
proposed purchaser to acquire that Person, and such
opposition has not been withdrawn, unless the
relevant Borrower notifies the relevant Lender of
such opposition when it requests such Non-Rata Credit
Extension.

(K) Sale of Assets. In order to clarify the relationship between
SECTIONS 8.2.5 and 8.2.9 and in respect of the Borrowers' request that SECTION
8.2.9(a)(ii) be less restrictive:

(i) The word "No" at the beginning of SECTION 8.2.9 is
entirely amended and replaced with the words, "EXCEPT as provided in
SECTION 8.2.5, no".

(ii) The first five words of SECTION 8.2.9(a)(ii) are
entirely amended and replaced with the words, "SO LONG AS no Event of
Default".

(L) Non-Performance of Certain Covenants. In respect of the
Borrowers' request for a cure period in respect of certain Liens that are not
Permitted Liens, SECTION 9.1.3 is entirely amended as follows:

SECTION 9.1.3. NON-PERFORMANCE OF CERTAIN COVENANTS
AND OBLIGATIONS. Any Obligor shall default in the due
performance and observation of any of its obligations under
SECTION 8.2.2 (excluding the involuntary incurrence of Liens
involving individually or collectively amounts in controversy
or encumbered assets or both having a value of less than
$60,000,000 at any time, which involuntary incurrences are
subject to SECTION 9.1.4 below), SECTION 8.2.3, SECTION 8.2.4,
or SECTION 8.2.5 (excluding any default by Micro in the
performance of its obligation to deliver, prior to the
consummation of any Material

12 FIRST AMENDMENT
15
Asset Acquisition, the certificate required to be so delivered
in connection therewith pursuant to SECTION 8.2.7(a)(iii),
default of which is subject to SECTION 9.1.4 below).

(M) Release of Subsidiary Guarantors and Supplemental Borrowers.
In respect of the Borrowers' request for simplification and clarification of
SECTION 11.16, that section is entirely amended as follows:

SECTION 11.16. RELEASE OF SUBSIDIARY GUARANTORS AND
SUPPLEMENTAL BORROWERS.

(a) IF (i) the Agents receive a certificate from
the chief executive officer, the chief financial officer, or
Treasurer of Micro certifying as of the date of that
certificate that, after the consummation of the transaction or
series of transactions described in such certificate (which
certification shall also state that such transactions,
individually and in the aggregate, will be in compliance with
the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including, to the
extent applicable, the covenants contained in SECTIONS 8.2.5,
8.2.6 and 8.2.9, and that no Default existed, exists, or will
exist, as the case may be, immediately before, as a result of,
or after giving effect to such transaction or transactions and
the release or termination, as the case may be, described
below), the Guarantor or Supplemental Borrower, as the case
may be, identified in such certificate will no longer be a
Subsidiary of Micro, and (ii) in the case of a Supplemental
Borrower, the appropriate Lender Parties have received payment
in full of all principal of, interest on, reimbursement
obligations in respect of, and fees related to any Outstanding
Credit Extensions made by any of them in favor of such
Supplemental Borrower and any outstanding Non-Rata Letters of
Credit issued for the account of such Supplemental Borrower
have been, or arrangements are in place for them to be,
terminated, THEN such Guarantor's Guaranty shall automatically
terminate or such Supplemental Borrower shall automatically
cease to be a party to this Agreement.

(b) No such termination or cessation shall
release, reduce, or otherwise adversely affect the obligations
of any other Obligor under this Agreement, any other Guaranty,
or any other Loan Document, all of which obligations continue
to remain in full force and effect.

(c) Each Lender Party shall, at Micro's expense,
execute such documents as Micro may reasonably request to
evidence such termination or cessation, as the case may be.

(N) In respect of the potential introduction of a new currency
among members of the European Community:

(i) SECTION 1.1 is amended to add the following
new defined terms in alphabetical order with the other defined
terms in that section:

"EMU EVENT" means, in respect of member states of the
European Community, an event associated with economic and
monetary union in the European Community, including, without
limitation, each (and any combination) of (a) the introduction
of,

13 FIRST AMENDMENT
16
changeover to, or operation of the New Currency, (b) the
fixing of conversion rates between a member state's currency
and the New Currency or between the currencies of member
states, (c) the substitution of the New Currency for the
European Currency Units as the unit of account of the European
Community, (d) the introduction of the New Currency as lawful
currency in a member state (whether at the earliest date or
subsequently and whether in parallel with, or as a replacement
for, the currency which, before the introduction of the New
Currency, was lawful currency in that member state), (e) the
withdrawal from legal tender, by reason of the introduction of
the New Currency, of any currency that, before the
introduction of the New Currency, was lawful currency in one
of the member states, (f) the disappearance or replacement of
a relevant price source for the European Currency Units or the
national currency of any member state, (g) the failure of any
sponsor (or a successor sponsor) such as Reuters or Telerate
to publish a relevant rate, index, price, page, or screen,
and (h) any event in furtherance of any of the foregoing.

"NEW CURRENCY" means any single or unified European
lawful currency (whether known as the Euro or otherwise, and
whether for the whole European Community or for only several
member states).

(ii) A new SECTION 5.14 is added as follows:

SECTION 5.14 ECONOMIC AND MONETARY UNION. The
parties confirm that the occurrence or non-occurrence of an
EMU Event will not of itself (a) result in any full or partial
discharge (whether by frustration or otherwise), cancellation,
rescission, or termination of this Agreement, (b) entitle any
party unilaterally to fully or partially cancel, rescind,
terminate, or vary this Agreement, or (c) result in a Default
or Event of Default.

(O) Other Provisions. In respect of the Borrowers' request that
other amendments, clarifications, or corrections to the Credit Agreement be
made:

(a) The words "an Event of Default" are inserted
instead of the words "a Default" in CLAUSES (v) and (A)(z).

(b) The words "and Micro" are deleted from CLAUSE
(B)(y).

(ii) The period at the end of the definition of the term
Impermissible Qualification in SECTION 1.1 is replaced with a
semi-colon, and a proviso is added to the end of that definition as
follows:

PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (i) qualifications relating to
pre-acquisition balance sheet accounts of Person(s) acquired
by Micro or any of its Subsidiaries and (ii) statements of
reliance in the auditor's opinion on another accounting firm
(SO LONG AS such other accounting firm has a national
reputation in the applicable country and such reliance does
not pertain to any Borrower) shall not be deemed an
Impermissible Qualification.

14 FIRST AMENDMENT
17
(iii) CLAUSE (c)(iv) in the definition of the term
Indebtedness in SECTION 1.1 is entirely amended as follows:

(iv) leases of real or personal property not required to

Non-Rata Revolving Loan to each Borrower.

(vi) The last proviso in SECTION 3.4.1 is entirely amended
as follows:

request for clarification of certain provisions in existing Guaranties, the

(A) Credit Agreement. Each of the representations and warranties

those contained in SECTION 7.8) is true and correct as though made on and as of
the date of this amendment (unless stated to relate solely to an earlier date,

references to the Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents, in each case as
amended by this amendment.

(B) Enforceability. Upon execution and delivery by the Borrowers
and the Required Lenders, this amendment will constitute valid and binding
obligations of each Obligor, enforceable against it in accordance with this
amendment's terms except as such enforcement may be limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or other similar laws relating to or
limiting creditors' rights generally or by general principles of equity.

(C) Obligors. As of the date of this amendment, the only Obligors

this amendment, the Credit Agreement is unchanged and continues in full force
and effect, and this amendment is not otherwise a waiver or any right, power,
or remedy of any Agent, Co-Agent, or Lender under, or waiver of any provision
of, any Loan Document. No change, waiver, or discharge of any provision of
this amendment is valid unless in writing that is signed by the party against
whom it is sought to be enforced.

(B) Governing Law. This amendment shall be deemed to be a
