ARTICLE IITHE COMMITMENTS AND CREDIT
EXTENSIONS

2.01 Revolving Loans.

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth
herein, each Revolving Lender severally agrees to make Loans in Dollars to the
Borrower (each such Loan, a "Revolving Loan"), from time to time on any
Business Day during the period from the Closing Date to the Maturity Date, in an
aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of such
Revolving Lender's Revolving Loan Commitment; provided, however,
that after giving effect to any Borrowing (i) the aggregate Outstanding
Amount of all Revolving Loans shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving
Commitments and (ii) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Revolving
Loans of any Revolving Lender shall not exceed such Lender's Revolving Loan
Commitment. Within the limits of each Revolving Lender's Revolving Loan
Commitment, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower
may borrow under this Section 2.01, prepay under
Section 2.04, and reborrow under this Section 2.01.
Revolving Loans may be Base Rate Loans or LIBO Rate Loans, as further provided
herein.

2.02 Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of
Loans.

1. Each Borrowing, each conversion of Loans from one Type to
the other, and each continuation of Loans as the same Type shall be made upon
the Borrower's irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, which may be
given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Administrative
Agent not later than 9:00 a.m., San Francisco time, (i) three Business
Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing of, conversion to or
continuation of LIBO Rate Loans or of any conversion of LIBO Rate Loans to Base
Rate Loans, and (ii) on the requested date of any Borrowing of Base Rate
Loans; provided, however, that if the Borrower wishes to request
LIBO Rate Loans having an Interest Period other than one, two, three or six
months in duration as provided in the definition of "Interest Period,"
the applicable notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later
than 9:00 a.m., San Francisco time, four Business Days prior to the
requested date of Borrowing, conversion or continuation. Each such telephonic
notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a
written Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer
of the Borrower. Each Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of LIBO Rate
Loans in Dollars shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000.00 or a whole
multiple of $1,000,000.00 in excess thereof. Each Borrowing of or conversion to
Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000.00 or a whole
multiple of $1,000,000.00 in excess thereof. Each Loan Notice (whether
telephonic or written) shall specify (i) whether the Borrower is requesting
a Borrowing, a conversion of Loans from one Type to the other, or a continuation
of Loans as the same Type, (ii) the requested date of the Borrowing,
conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day),
(iii) the principal amount of Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued,
(iv) the Type of Loans to be borrowed or to which existing Loans are to be
converted, and (v) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with
respect thereto. If the Borrower fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Loan
Notice or if the Borrower fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion
or continuation, then the applicable Loans shall be made or continued as, or
converted to, Base Rate Loans. Any automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans shall
be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with
respect to the applicable LIBO Rate Loans. If the Borrower requests a Borrowing
of, conversion to, or continuation of LIBO Rate Loans in any such Loan Notice,
but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an
Interest Period of one month.
2. Following receipt of a Loan Notice, the Administrative
Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of its Pro Rata Share of the applicable
Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by
the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the details
of any automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans described in the preceding
subsection. In the case of a Borrowing, each Lender shall make the amount of its
Loan available to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds at the
Administrative Agent's Office not later than 11:00 a.m., San Francisco
time, on the Business Day specified in the applicable Loan Notice. Upon
satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.02,
the Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the
Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent either by
(i) crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of Bank of America
with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each
case in accordance with instructions provided to the Administrative Agent by the
Borrower.
3. Except as otherwise provided herein, a LIBO Rate Loan may
be continued or converted only on the last day of the Interest Period for such
LIBO Rate Loan. During the existence of a Default or Event of Default, no Loans
may be requested as, converted to or continued as LIBO Rate Loans without the
consent of the Required Lenders, and the Required Lenders may demand that any or
all of the then outstanding LIBO Rate Loans be converted immediately to Base
Rate Loans.
4. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the
Borrower and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any LIBO Rate Loan
upon determination of such interest rate. The determination of the LIBO Rate by
the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.
The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders of any change
in Bank of America's prime rate used in determining the Base Rate promptly
following the public announcement of such change.
5. After giving effect to all Borrowings, all conversions of
Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Loans as the same
Type, there shall not be more than sixInterest Periods in effect with
respect to Loans.

2.03 Extension of Maturity
Date.

1. Not earlier than 60 days prior to, nor later than
30 days prior to, each anniversary of the Maturity Date, the Borrower may,
upon notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify the Lenders),
request a 364-day extension of the Maturity Date. Within 15 days of
delivery of such notice, each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent
whether or not it consents to such extension (which consent may be given or
withheld in such Lender's sole and absolute discretion). Any Lender not
responding within the above time period shall be deemed not to have consented to
such extension. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and
the Lenders of the Lenders' responses. If any Lender declines, or is deemed to
have declined, to consent to such extension, the Borrower may cause any such
Lender to be removed or replaced as a Lender pursuant to
Section 10.16.
2. The Maturity Date shall be extended only if Lenders
holding at least 66-2/3% of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments (calculated
prior to giving effect to any removals or replacements of Lenders permitted
herein) and all Lenders (after giving effect to any removals or replacements of
Lenders permitted herein) (the "Consenting Lenders") have consented
thereto. If so extended, the Maturity Date, as to the Consenting Lenders, shall
be extended to a date 364 days from the existing Maturity Date, effective
as of the existing Maturity Date (the "Extension Effective Date"). The
Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall promptly confirm to the Lenders such
extension and the Extension Effective Date. As a condition precedent to such
extension, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate
of the Borrower and each Guarantor dated as of the Extension Effective Date (in
sufficient copies for each Lender) signed by a Responsible Officer of such Loan
Party (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan
Party approving or consenting to such extension and, (ii) in the case of
the Borrower, certifying that, before and after giving effect to such extension,
(x) the representations and warranties contained in Article V are
true and correct on and as of the Extension Effective Date, except to the extent
that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date,
in which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such
earlier date and (y) no Default or Event of Default is in existence. The
Administrative Agent shall distribute an amended Schedule 2.01,
which shall be deemed incorporated into this Agreement, to reflect any changes
in Lenders and their Commitment amounts. The Borrower shall prepay any Loans
outstanding on the Extension Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts
required pursuant to Section 3.05) to the extent necessary to keep
outstanding Loans ratable with the Pro Rata Shares of all the Lenders.
3. This Section 2.03 shall supersede any
provisions in Section 10.01 to the contrary.

2.04 Prepayments.

The Borrower may, upon notice from the
Borrower to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time
voluntarily prepay the Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty;
provided that (i) such notice must be received by the Administrative
Agent not later than 9:00 a.m., San Francisco time, (A) three Business
Days prior to any date of prepayment of LIBO Rate Loans and (B) on the date
of prepayment of Base Rate Loans; (ii) any prepayment of LIBO Rate Loans
shall be in a minimum principal amount of $5,000,000.00 (unless the outstanding
principal amount of such Loan is less and such Loan is paid in full) or a whole
multiple of $1,000,000.00 in excess thereof; and (iii) any prepayment of
Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000.00 or a whole
multiple of $1,000,000.00 in excess thereof (unless the outstanding principal
amount of such Loan is less and such Loan is paid in full). Each such notice
shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment, and the Type(s) of Loans
to be prepaid. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its
receipt of each such notice, and of such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such
prepayment. If such notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make
such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and
payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of a LIBO Rate Loan shall
be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon, together with any additional
amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05. Each such prepayment
shall be applied to the Loans of the applicable Lenders in accordance with their
respective Pro Rata Shares.

2.05 Reduction or Termination of
Commitments.

The Borrower may, upon notice from the Borrower to
the Administrative Agent, terminate the Aggregate Revolving Commitments, or
permanently reduce the Aggregate Revolving Commitments to an amount not less
than the then Outstanding Amount of all Revolving Loans; provided that
(i) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent not later
than 9:00 a.m., San Francisco time, five Business Days prior to the date of
termination or reduction, and (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in
an aggregate amount of $10,000,000.00 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000.00 in
excess thereof. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any
such notice of reduction or termination of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments.
Once reduced in accordance with this Section 2.05, the Aggregate
Revolving Commitments may not be increased. Any reduction of the Aggregate
Revolving Commitments shall be applied to the Revolving Loan Commitment of each
Lender according to its Pro Rata Share. All facility and utilization fees
accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Commitments shall be
paid on the effective date of such termination.

2.06 Repayment of Loans.

The Borrower shall repay to the Lenders on the
Maturity Date therefor the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans
outstanding on such date.

2.07 Interest.

1. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.07(b),
(i) each Revolving Loan that is a LIBO Rate Loan shall bear interest on the
outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per
annum equal to the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate,
and (ii) each Revolving Loan that is a Base Rate Loan shall bear interest
on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date
at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate.
2. If any amount payable by the Borrower under any Loan
Document is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods),
such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per
annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable Law. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including
interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.
3. Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears
on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may
be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance
with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the
commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

2.08 Fees.

1. Facility Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender in accordance with
its Pro Rata Share, a facility fee equal to the Applicable Rate times the actual
daily amount of the Revolving Loan Commitments, regardless of usage. The
facility fee shall accrue at all times from the Closing Date until the Maturity
Date and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day
of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date
to occur after the Closing Date, and on the Maturity Date. The facility fee
shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the
Applicable Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed
and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such
quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. The facility fee shall accrue
at all times, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions
in Article IV is not met.
2. Utilization Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender in accordance with
its Pro Rata Share, a utilization fee equal to the Applicable Rate times the
actual daily aggregate Outstanding Amount of Revolving Loans on each day that
such aggregate Outstanding Amount exceeds 33% of the Aggregate Revolving
Commitments. The utilization fee shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears
on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing
with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the Maturity
Date. The utilization fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there
is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount
shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each
period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. The
utilization fee shall accrue at all times, including at any time during which
one or more of the conditions in Article IV is not met.
3. Other Fees. The Borrower shall pay certain fees to
the Arranger for the Arranger's own account, and shall pay an agency fee to the
Administrative Agent for the Administrative Agent's own account, in the amounts
and at the times specified in the letter agreement, dated December 14,
2001, between the Borrower and the Arranger and the letter agreement, dated
February 6, 2002, between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
respectively (together, the "Fee Letters"). Such fees shall be fully
earned when paid and shall be nonrefundable for any reason whatsoever.
4. Computation of Interest and Fees. Interest on
Base Rate Loans shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days,
as the case may be, and the actual number of days elapsed. Computation of all
other types of interest and all fees shall be calculated on the basis of a year
of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed, which results in a higher
yield to the payee thereof than a method based on a year of 365 or 366 days.
Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and
shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the
Loan or such portion is paid; provided that, any Loan that is repaid on
the same day on which it is made shall bear interest for one day.

2.09 Evidence
of Debt.

The Credit Extensions made by each Lender
shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender
and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts
or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be
conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by
the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure
to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise
affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with
respect to the Loans. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and
records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the
Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the
Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the
request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, such Lender's Loans
may be evidenced by a Revolving Loan Note in addition to such accounts or
records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note(s) and endorse thereon the
date, Type (if applicable), and amount and maturity of the applicable Loans.

2.10 Payments
Generally.

1. All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made
without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or set-off.
Except as otherwise expressly provided herein all payments by the Borrower
hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the
respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable
Administrative Agent's Office in Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than
11:00 a.m., San Francisco time, on the date specified herein. The
Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Pro Rata Share
(or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as
received by wire transfer to such Lender's Lending Office. All payments received
by the Administrative Agent after 11:00 a.m., San Francisco time shall be
deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest
or fee shall continue to accrue.
2. Subject to the definition of "Interest Period," if
any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a
Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such
extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case
may be.
3. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and
available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal,
interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied
(i) first, toward costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs and
amounts payable under Article III) incurred by the Administrative Agent
and each Lender, (ii) second, toward repayment of interest and fees
then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance
with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and
(iii) third, toward repayment of principal then due hereunder,
ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of
principal then due to such parties.
4. Unless the Borrower or any Lender has notified the
Administrative Agent prior to the date any payment is required to be made by it
to the Administrative Agent hereunder, that the Borrower or such Lender, as the
case may be, will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume
that the Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, has timely made such
payment and may (but shall not be so required to), in reliance thereon, make
available a corresponding amount to the Person entitled thereto. If and to the
extent that such payment was not in fact made to the Administrative Agent in
Same Day Funds, then:
5. if the Borrower failed to make such payment, each Lender
shall forthwith on demand repay to the Administrative Agent the portion of such
assumed payment that was made available to such Lender in Same Day Funds,
together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the
date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to such Lender
to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds,
at the applicable Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect; and
6. if any Lender failed to make such payment, such Lender
shall forthwith on demand pay to the Administrative Agent the amount thereof in
Same Day Funds, together with interest thereon for the period from the date such
amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower to the
date such amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent (the "Compensation
Period") at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Federal Funds Rate from
time to time in effect. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative
Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender's Loan, included in the
applicable Borrowing. If such Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon the
Administrative Agent's demand therefor, the Administrative Agent may make a
demand therefor on the Borrower, and the Borrower shall pay such amount to the
Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon for the Compensation Period
at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest applicable to the applicable
Borrowing. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its
obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the
Administrative Agent or the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of
any default by such Lender hereunder.
7. If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent
funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing
provisions of this Article II, and the conditions to Credit
Extensions set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in
accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such
funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without
interest.
8. The obligations of each Revolving Lender hereunder to
make Loans are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan
on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other applicable Lender of
its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be
responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan.
9. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to
obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute
a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for
any Loan in any particular place or manner.

2.11 Sharing
of Payments.

If, other than as expressly provided
elsewhere herein, any Revolving Lender shall obtain on account of the Revolving
Loans made by it any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the
exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share
(or other share contemplated hereunder) thereof, such Lender shall immediately
(a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase
from the other Lenders such participations in the applicable Loans made by them
as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess
payment in respect of such Loans, pro rata with each of them; provided,
however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter
recovered from the purchasing Lender, such purchase shall to that extent be
rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the
purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying
Lender's ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of
such paying Lender's required repayment to (ii) the total amount so
recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or
payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered.
The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another
Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of
payment (including the right of set-off, but subject to
Section 10.09) with respect to such participation as fully as if
such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such
participation. The Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be
conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations
purchased under this Section 2.11 and will in each case notify the
Lenders following any such purchases or repayments. Each Lender that purchases a
participation pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall from and after
such purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions
and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the
Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were
the original owner of the Obligations purchased.

2.12 Increase
in Loan Commitments.

1. The Borrower may by written notice to the Arranger and
the Administrative Agent elect to request (i) prior to the Maturity Date,
an increase or addition to the existing Revolving Loan Commitments (any such
increase, the "New Revolving Loan Commitments" or the "New
Commitments"), by an amount, when added to any increase in commitments under
the Three-Year Credit Agreement, not in excess of $250,000,000.00 in the
aggregate, and not less than $25,000,000.00 individually, and integral multiples
of $5,000,000.00 in excess of that amount. Each such notice shall specify
(i) the date (each, an "Increased Amount Date") on which the
Borrower proposes that the New Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a
date not less than ten (10) Business Days after the date on which such notice is
delivered to the Arranger and the Administrative Agent and, (ii) the
identity of each Lender or other Person that is an Eligible Assignee (each, a
"New Revolving Lender") to whom the Borrower proposes any portion of such
New Commitments be allocated and the amounts of such allocations;
provided that, any Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the
New Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide a New
Commitment. Such New Commitments shall become effective, as of such Increased
Amount Date; provided that (1) no Default or Event of Default shall
exist on such Increased Amount Date before or after giving effect to such New
Commitments; (2) both before and after giving effect to the making of any
new Loans, each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 shall be
satisfied; (3) the Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall be in pro forma
compliance with each of the covenants set forth in Section 7.13 as
of the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter after giving effect to
such New Commitments, as certified by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower;
(4) the New Commitments, as applicable, shall be effected pursuant to one
or more Joinder Agreements, substantially in the form of Exhibit K,
executed and delivered by the Borrower, each New Revolving Lender, and the
Arranger, with receipt thereof acknowledged by the Administrative Agent, and
each of which shall be recorded in the Register and shall be subject to the
requirements set forth in Section 10.15; (5) the Borrower shall
make any payments required pursuant to Sections 2.08(c)
and 3.05 in connection with the New Revolving Loan Commitments;
(6) the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of
the Borrower, each other Loan Party and each other Subsidiary of the Borrower
that is a party to the Pledge Agreement and/or the Interco Subordination
Agreement dated as of the Increased Amount Date (in sufficient copies for each
Lender) signed by a Responsible Officer of such Loan Party, (a) certifying
and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting
to such New Commitments, as applicable and, (b) in the case of the
Borrower, certifying that, before and after giving effect to such extension, the
representations and warranties contained in Article V are true and
correct in all material respects on and as of the Increased Amount Date, except
to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an
earlier date, in which case they shall be true and correct as in all material
respects of such earlier date; (7) the Borrower shall deliver or cause to
be delivered any legal opinions or other documents reasonably requested by the
Administrative Agent or the Arranger in connection with such New Commitments;
(8) the Arranger shall have consented to such New Commitments; and
(9) the Administrative Agent shall have consented to such New Commitments,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Administrative Agent shall
distribute an amended Schedule 2.01 (which shall be deemed
incorporated into this Agreement), to reflect any changes in Lenders and their
Commitment amounts.
2. On any Increased Amount Date on which New Revolving Loan
Commitments are effected, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and
conditions, (a) each of the Revolving Lenders shall assign to each of the
New Revolving Lenders, and each of the New Revolving Lenders shall purchase from
each of the Revolving Lenders, at the principal amount thereof (together with
accrued interest), such interests in the Revolving Loans outstanding on such
Increased Amount Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect
to all such assignments and purchases, such Revolving Loans will be held by
existing Revolving Lenders and New Revolving Lenders ratably in accordance with
their Revolving Loan Commitments after giving effect to the addition of such New
Revolving Loan Commitments to the Revolving Loan Commitments, (b) each New
Revolving Loan Commitment shall be deemed for all purposes a Revolving Loan
Commitment and each Loan made thereunder (a "New Revolving Loan") shall
be deemed, for all purposes, a Revolving Loan, and (c) each New Revolving
Lender shall become a Lender with respect to the New Revolving Loan Commitment
and all matters relating thereto.
3. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders
promptly upon receipt of the Borrower's notice of each Increased Amount Date and
in respect thereof (y) the New Revolving Loan Commitments and the New
Revolving Lenders, and (z) in the case of each notice to any Revolving
Lender, the respective interests in such Revolving Lender's Revolving Loans, in
each case subject to the assignments contemplated by this
Section 2.12.
4. The terms and provisions of the New Revolving Loans shall
be identical to the Revolving Loans. Each Joinder Agreement may, without the
consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the
Arranger (with the concurrence of the Administrative Agent, not to be
unreasonably withheld), to effect the provisions of this
Section 2.12.
5. This Section 2.12 shall supersede any
provisions in Section 10.01 to the contrary.

ARTICLE IIITAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND
ILLEGALITY

3.01 Taxes.

1. Any and all payments by the Borrower to or for the
account of the Administrative Agent or any Lender under any Loan Document shall
be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or
future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees,
withholdings or similar charges, and all liabilities with respect thereto,
excluding, in the case of the Administrative Agent and each Lender, taxes
imposed on or measured by its net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it (in
lieu of net income taxes), as a result of a present or former connection between
the Administrative Agent or such Lender and the jurisdiction of the Governmental
Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority
thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely from the
Administrative Agent or such Lender having executed, delivered or performed its
obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or any Loan
Document) (all such non-excluded taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions,
assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and liabilities being
hereinafter referred to as "Taxes"). If the Borrower shall be required by
any Laws to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any
Loan Document to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, then, subject to
Section 3.01(e), (i) the sum payable shall be increased as
necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions
applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), the Administrative
Agent and such Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received
had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such
deductions, (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the
relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable
Laws, and (iv) within 30 days after the date of such payment, the
Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent (which shall forward the same
to such Lender) the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment
thereof.
2. In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any and all
present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes and any other excise or
property taxes or charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made
under any Loan Document or from the execution, delivery, performance,
enforcement or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document
(hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes").
3. Subject to Section 3.01(e), if the Borrower
shall be required to deduct or pay any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect
of any sum payable under any Loan Document to the Administrative Agent or any
Lender, the Borrower shall also pay to the Administrative Agent (for the account
of such Lender) or to such Lender, at the time interest is paid, such additional
amount that such Lender specifies as necessary to preserve the after-tax yield
(after factoring in all taxes, including taxes imposed on or measured by net
income) such Lender would have received if such Taxes or Other Taxes had not
been imposed.
4. The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent
and each Lender for (i) the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including
any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts
payable under this Section) paid by the Administrative Agent and such Lender,
(ii) amounts payable under Section 3.01(c) and (iii) any
liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with
respect thereto, in each case whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were
correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.
Payment under this Section 3.01(d) shall be made within 30 days
after the date the Lender or the Administrative Agent makes a demand
therefor.
5. The Borrower will not be required to pay any additional
amounts in respect of United States Federal income tax pursuant to
Section 3.01(a) or 3.01(c) (in connection with Taxes) to
any Lender:
6. if the obligation to pay such additional amounts arose
solely as a result of such Lender's failure to comply with its obligations under
Section 10.15; or
7. if, but only to the extent that, at the time such Lender
becomes a party to the Agreement such Lender was subject to United States
federal withholding taxes on amounts payable pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement (except to the extent that such Lender's assignor (if any) was
entitled, at the time of the assignment, to receive additional amounts from the
Borrower with respect to such Taxes).

3.02 Illegality.

If any Lender determines that any Law has made it
unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful,
for such Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund LIBO
Rate Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBO Rate,
or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority
of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of Dollars in the
applicable interbank market, then on notice thereof by such Lender to the
Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make
or continue LIBO Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to LIBO Rate Loans
shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer
exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall, upon demand from such
Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable,
convert all such LIBO Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans, either on
the last day of the Interest Period thereof, if such Lender may lawfully
continue to maintain such LIBO Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such
Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBO Rate Loans. Upon any such
prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay interest on the amount so
prepaid or converted. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office
if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the
good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to
such Lender.

3.03 Inability to Determine Rates.

If the Administrative Agent determines in
connection with any request for a LIBO Rate Loan or a conversion to or
continuation thereof that (i) deposits in Dollars are not being offered to
banks in the offshore interbank market for the applicable amount and Interest
Period of such LIBO Rate Loan, (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not
exist for determining the LIBO Base Rate for such LIBO Rate Loan, or
(iii) the LIBO Base Rate for such LIBO Rate Loan does not adequately and
fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding such LIBO Rate Loan, the
Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and all Lenders.
Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain LIBO Rate Loans
shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent revokes such notice. Upon
receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a
Borrowing, conversion or continuation of LIBO Rate Loans or, failing that, will
be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base
Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

3.04 Increased Cost and Reduced
Return; Capital Adequacy.

1. If any Lender determines that as a result of the
introduction, effective after the date hereof, of or any change in or in the
interpretation of any Law, or such Lender's compliance therewith, there shall be
any increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding
or maintaining LIBO Rate Loans, or a reduction in the amount received or
receivable by such Lender in connection with any of the foregoing (excluding for
purposes of this Section 3.04(a) any such increased costs or
reduction in amount resulting from (i) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which
Section 3.01 shall govern), (ii) changes in the basis of
taxation of overall net income or overall gross income by the United States or
any foreign jurisdiction or any political subdivision of either thereof under
the Laws of which such Lender is organized or has its Lending Office, and
(iii) reserve requirements utilized, as to LIBO Rate Loans, in the
determination of the LIBO Rate), then from time to time upon demand of such
Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower
shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender
for such increased cost or reduction.
2. If any Lender determines that the introduction, effective
after the date hereof, of any Law regarding capital adequacy or any change,
effective after the date hereof, therein or in the interpretation thereof, or
compliance by such Lender (or its Lending Office) therewith, has the effect of
reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation
controlling such Lender as a consequence of such Lender's obligations hereunder
(taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy and
such Lender's desired return on capital), then from time to time upon demand of
such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the
Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate
such Lender for such reduction.

3.05 Compensation for Losses.

Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly compensate
such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense
incurred by it as a result of:

1. any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of
any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the
Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by
reason of acceleration, or otherwise);
2. any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the
failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert
any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by
the Borrower;
3. any assignment of a LIBO Rate Loan on a day other than
the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the
Borrower pursuant to Section 10.16, including any loss of
anticipated profits, and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or
reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable
to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. The Borrower
shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in
connection with the foregoing.

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower
to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed
to have funded each LIBO Rate Loan made by it at the LIBO Rate for such Loan by
a matching deposit or other borrowing in the offshore interbank market for
Dollars for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such
LIBO Rate Loan was in fact so funded.

3.06 Matters
Applicable to all Requests for Compensation.

1. A certificate of the Administrative Agent or any Lender
claiming compensation under this Article III and setting forth the
additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive in
the absence of manifest error; provided, however, that the
Borrower shall not be liable for any such amount attributable to any period
prior to the date 180 days prior to the date that an officer at such Lender
responsible for the administration of this Agreement knew or reasonably should
have known of such claim for reimbursement or compensation unless the cause of
such claim has retroactive effect beyond such 180 days, in which case the
Borrower shall be liable. In determining such amount, the Administrative Agent
or such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution
methods.
2. Upon any Lender's making a claim for compensation under
Section 3.01 or Section 3.04, the Borrower may remove or
replace such Lender in accordance with Section 10.16.

3.07 Survival.

All of the Borrower's obligations under this
Article III shall survive termination of the Commitments and payment
in full of all the other Obligations.

WARRANTIES

extent that failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

The execution, delivery and performance by each
Loan Document Party of each Loan Document to which such Person is party, have
been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational action,
and do not and will not (a) contravene the terms of any of such Person's
Organization Documents; (b) conflict with or result in any breach or
contravention of, or the creation of any Lien under, any material Contractual
Obligation to which such Person is a party or any order, injunction, writ or

filings and other actions in connection with the Liens on any collateral. All
applicable waiting periods in connection with the transactions contemplated by
the Loan Documents have expired without any action having been taken by any
competent authority restraining, preventing or imposing materially adverse
conditions upon the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents.

5.04 Binding
Effect.

This Agreement has been, and each other Loan
Document, when delivered hereunder, will have been duly executed and delivered
by each Loan Document Party that is party thereto. This Agreement constitutes,
and each other Loan Document when so delivered will constitute, a legal, valid
and binding obligation of such Loan Document Party, enforceable against each
Loan Document Party that is party thereto in accordance with its terms,
except to the extent that the enforceability thereof may be limited by
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws
affecting creditor's rights generally and by equitable principles (regardless of
whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law).

Effect.

1. The Audited Financial Statements (i) were prepared

contingent, of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of the date thereof,

Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of the date thereof and their results of
operations for the period covered thereby in accordance with GAAP consistently
applied throughout the period covered thereby, except as otherwise expressly

to have a Material Adverse Effect, except as disclosed (i) in public
filings by the Borrower with the SEC or (ii) in press releases of the
Borrower or other public disclosures of the Borrower, in each case publicly
filed or publicly released after August 31, 2001 but prior to the date of
this Agreement.

5.06 Litigation.

There are no actions, suits, proceedings, claims or
disputes pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower threatened or
contemplated, at law, in equity, in arbitration or before any Governmental
Authority, by or against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or against any
of their properties or revenues which (a) purport to affect or pertain to
this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any of the transactions
contemplated hereby, or (b) if determined adversely, could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.07 No
Default.

Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is in
default under or with respect to any Contractual Obligation that could be
reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Default or Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from the consummation of
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan
Document.

5.08 Ownership of Property; Liens.

The Borrower and each Subsidiary have good record
and marketable title in fee simple to, or valid leasehold interests in, all real
property necessary or used in the ordinary conduct of their respective
businesses, except for such defects in title as could not, individually or in
the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. As of
the Closing Date, the property of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries is subject
to no Liens, other than Permitted Liens.

5.09 Environmental Compliance.

The Borrower and its Subsidiaries conduct in the
ordinary course of business a review of the effect of existing Environmental
Laws and claims alleging potential liability or responsibility for violation of
any Environmental Law on their respective businesses, operations and properties,
and as a result thereof the Borrower has reasonably concluded that,except as specifically disclosed in Schedule 5.09, such
Environmental Laws and claims could not, individually or in the aggregate,
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.10 Insurance.

The properties of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries
are insured with financially sound and reputable insurance companies not
Affiliates of the Borrower, in such amounts, with such deductibles and covering
such risks as are customarily carried by companies engaged in similar businesses

federal, state and other material tax returns and reports required to be filed,
and have paid all federal, state and other material taxes, assessments, fees and
other governmental charges levied or imposed upon them or their properties,
income or assets otherwise due and payable, except those which are being
contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which adequate
reserves have been provided in accordance with GAAP. To the Borrower's
knowledge, no proposed tax assessment against the Borrower or any Subsidiary
would, if made, have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.12 ERISA
Compliance.

1. Each Plan is in compliance in all material respects with
the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and other federal or state Laws.
Each Plan that is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code has
received a favorable determination letter from the IRS or an application for
such a letter is currently being processed by the IRS with respect thereto and,

with the incurrence of Permitted Liens, to the extent they condition, prohibit

as permitted under Sections 7.11(a) through 7.11(h))

forma adjustments shall be certified by the chief financial officer of the
Borrower) using the historical audited, if available, financial statements of
any business so acquired or to be acquired or sold or to be sold and the
consolidated financial statements of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries which
shall be reformulated as if such Subject Transaction, and any Indebtedness
incurred or repaid in connection therewith, had been consummated or incurred or
repaid at the beginning of such period (and assuming that such Indebtedness
bears interest during any portion of the applicable measurement period prior to
the relevant acquisition at the weighted average of the interest rates
applicable to outstanding Loans incurred during such period).

ARTICLE IXAGENTS

9.01 Appointment
and Authorization of Agents.

Each Lender hereby irrevocably (subject to
Section 9.09) appoints, designates and authorizes each Agent to take
such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other
Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are
expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in
any other Loan Document, no Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities,
except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall such Agent have or be deemed
to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or participant, and no
implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or
liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or
otherwise exist against such Agent. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing sentence, the use of the term "agent" herein and in the other Loan
Documents with reference to any Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary
or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any
applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom,
and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between
independent contracting parties.

9.02 Delegation of Duties.

Each Agent may execute any of its duties under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or
attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other
consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Each
Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or
attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful
misconduct.

9.03 Liability of Agent-Related Persons.

No Agent-Related Person shall (a) be liable
for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in
connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions
contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct
in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein), or (b) be
responsible in any manner to any Lender or participant for any recital,
statement, representation or warranty made by any Loan Party or any officer
thereof, contained herein or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate,
report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received
by any Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or
sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of
any Loan Party or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its
obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any
obligation to any Lender or participant to ascertain or to inquire as to the
observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions
of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties,
books or records of any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof.

9.04 Reliance
byAgent-Related Persons.

1. Each Agent-Related Person shall be entitled to rely, and
shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature,
resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter,
telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or
conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed,
sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of
legal counsel (including counsel to any Loan Party), independent accountants and
other experts selected by such Agent-Related Person. Each Agent-Related Person
shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any
Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the
Required Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first
be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability
and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to
take any such action. Each Agent-Related Person shall in all cases be fully
protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any
other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required
Lenders or all the Lenders, if required hereunder, and such request and any
action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the
Lenders and participants. Where this Agreement expressly permits or prohibits an
action unless the Required Lenders otherwise determine, each Agent-Related
Person shall, and in all other instances, such Agent-Related Person may, but
shall not be required to, initiate any solicitation for the consent or a vote of
the Lenders.
2. For purposes of determining compliance with the
conditions specified in Section 4.01, each Lender that has signed
this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to
be satisfied with, each document or other matter either sent by any Agent-
Related Person to such Lender for consent, approval, acceptance or satisfaction,
or required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or
satisfactory to a Lender.

9.05 Notice
of Default.

No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or
notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default; except with respect
to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid
to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or the
Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of
Default and stating that such notice is a "notice of default." The
Administrative Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice.
The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or
Event of Default as may be directed by the Required Lenders in accordance with
Article VIII; provided, however, that unless and until
the Administrative Agent has received any such direction, the Administrative
Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from
taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall
deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders.

9.06 Credit
Decision; Disclosure of Information by Agent-Related
Persons.

Each Lender acknowledges that no Agent-Related
Person has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by any
Agent-Related Person hereafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of
any assignment or review of the affairs of any Loan Party or any Affiliate
thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any
Agent-Related Person to any Lender as to any matter, including whether Agent-Related Persons
have disclosed material information in their possession. Each
Lender represents to the Agent-Related Persons that it has, independently and
without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and
investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and
other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their respective
Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Laws relating to the
transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this
Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrower hereunder. Each Lender also
represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and
based on such documents and information as it shall deem
appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals
and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform
itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other
condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties.
Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be
furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent herein, the Administrative
Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any
credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations,
property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any of the Loan
Parties or any of their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession
of any Agent-Related Person.

9.07 Indemnification of Agent-Related
Persons.

Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby
are consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify upon demand each Agent-Related
Person (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of any Loan Party and
without limiting the obligation of any Loan Party to do so), pro rata, and hold
harmless each Agent-Related Person from and against any and all Indemnified
Liabilities incurred by it; provided, however, that no Lender
shall be liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of
such Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined in a final, nonappealable
judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been caused primarily by
such Person's own gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided
further, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the
Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful
misconduct for purposes of this Section 9.07. Without limitation of the
foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Arranger and the Administrative Agent
upon demand for their ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses
(including Attorney Costs and costs and expenses in connection with the use of
IntraLinks, Inc. or other similar information transmission systems in connection
with this Agreement) incurred by the Arranger and the Administrative Agent in
connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration,
modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal
proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or
responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document
contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Arranger and the
Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the
Borrower. The undertaking in this Section 9.07 shall survive
termination of the Commitments, the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the
resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent.

9.08 Each
Agent in its Individual Capacity.

Each Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to,
issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity
interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial
advisory, underwriting or other business with each of the Loan Parties and their
respective Affiliates as though such Agent were not an Agent hereunder and
without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that,
pursuant to such activities, any Agent or its Affiliates may receive information
regarding any Loan Party or its Affiliates (including information that may be
subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Loan Party or such
Affiliate) and acknowledge that such Agent shall be under no obligation to
provide such information to them. With respect to its Loans, each Agent shall
have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may
exercise such rights and powers as though it were not an Agent and the terms
"Lender" and "Lenders" include each Agent in its individual
capacity.

9.09 Successor Administrative Agent and Collateral
Agent.

1. The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative
Agent upon 30 days' notice to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent may
be removed at any time with or without cause by a written notice delivered to
the Borrower, and the Administrative Agent and signed by the Required Lenders.
If the Administrative Agent resigns or is removed under this Agreement, the
Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor administrative
agent for the Lenders which successor administrative agent shall be consented to
by the Borrower at all times other than during the existence of an Event of
Default (which consent of the Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed). If no successor administrative agent is appointed prior to the
effective date of the resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent, the
Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the
Borrower, a successor administrative agent from among the Lenders. Upon the
acceptance of its appointment as successor administrative agent hereunder, the
Person acting as such successor administrative agent shall succeed to all the
rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term
"Administrative Agent" shall mean such successor administrative agent,
and the retiring Administrative Agent's appointment, powers and duties as
Administrative Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Administrative
Agent's resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions
of this Article IX and Sections 10.04
and 10.05 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or
omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent under this
Agreement. If no successor administrative agent has accepted appointment as
Administrative Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring
Administrative Agent's delivery of a notice of resignation or receipt of a
notice of removal from the Required Lenders, the retiring Administrative Agent's
resignation or removal shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the
Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder
until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as
provided for above.
2. The Collateral Agent may resign from the performance of
all its functions and duties under the Intercreditor Agreement, the Interco
Subordination Agreement and the Pledge Agreement and any other Loan Document
(collectively, the "Collateral Agreements") at any time by giving
30 days' prior written notice to the Borrower, each other pledgor under the
Pledge Agreement and the Lenders, and the Collateral Agent may be removed at any
time with or without cause by a written notice delivered to the Borrower and the
Collateral Agent and signed by the Required Lenders. Upon any such notice of
resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the
Lenders a successor collateral agent which successor collateral agent shall be
consented to by the Borrower at all times other than during the existence of an
Event of Default. If a successor collateral agent shall not have been so
appointed by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Collateral
Agent's notice of resignation or removal, the Collateral Agent shall then
appoint a successor Collateral Agent from among the Lenders and who shall serve
as Collateral Agent hereunder or thereunder until such time, if any, as the
Required Lenders appoint a successor Collateral Agent as provided above. Upon
the acceptance of its appointment as successor Collateral Agent, the Person
acting as such successor Collateral Agent shall succeed to all the rights,
powers and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent and the term "Collateral
Agent" shall mean such successor Collateral Agent and the retiring Collateral
Agent's appointment, powers and duties as Collateral Agent shall be terminated.
If no successor Collateral Agent has accepted appointment as Collateral Agent by
the date which is 45 days following a retiring Collateral Agent's notice of
resignation or a receipt of a notice of removal from the Required Lenders, the
retiring Collateral Agent's resignation or removal shall nevertheless thereupon
become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the
Collateral Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders
appoint a successor agent as provided for above. The retiring or removed
Collateral Agent under the Collateral Agreements shall promptly
(i) transfer to such successor collateral agent all sums, securities and
other items of collateral described therein, together with all records and other
documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the
duties of the successor collateral agent under the Collateral Agreements, and
(ii) execute and deliver to such successor collateral agent such amendments
to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or
appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor collateral agent
of any security interests created thereunder. After any retiring or removed
Collateral Agent's resignation or removal hereunder as the collateral agent, the
provisions of the Collateral Agreements shall inure to its benefit as to any
actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under the Collateral Agreements while
it was the Collateral Agent thereunder.

9.10 Other
Agents.

None of the Lenders or other Persons identified on
the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as a "co-syndication
agent," "documentation agent," "lead arranger" or "book runner" shall have any
right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement
other than those expressly set forth herein or otherwise applicable to all
Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, (i) any Agent (other than
the Administrative Agent) may at any time resign as an Agent hereunder, and
thereafter any provision herein requiring the consent or approval of such Agent
shall instead be deemed to refer to the consent or approval of the
Administrative Agent, provided that the Administrative Agent in its sole
discretion affirmatively agrees to administer such consents and approvals, and
if it shall not so administer such consents and approvals, any such decision
shall be deemed to refer to the Required Lenders, and (ii) none of the
Lenders or other Persons so identified shall have or be deemed to have any
fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not
relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders or other Persons so identified
in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action
hereunder.

9.11 Agents Under Other Loan
Documents.

1. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent,
on behalf of and for the benefit of the Lenders, to be the agent for and
representative of the Lenders with respect to, and to enter into, or appoint and
authorize the Collateral Agent to enter into, all other Loan Documents, as
applicable, including the Guaranty (364-Day), the Pledge Agreement, the
Intercreditor Agreement and the Interco Subordination Agreement. The
Administrative Agent is further authorized on behalf of all the Lenders, without
the necessity of any notice to or further consent from the Lenders, from time to
time to take any action, or permit the Collateral Agent to take any action, with
respect to any collateral or the Loan Documents which may be necessary to
perfect and maintain perfected the security interest in and Liens upon any
collateral granted pursuant to any Loan Document. Subject to
Section 10.01, without further written consent or authorization from
the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or the appointed Collateral Agent may
execute any documents or instruments necessary to (i) release any Lien
encumbering the Capital Stock of any Subsidiary (and any Intercompany Note
evidencing indebtedness of such Subsidiary payable to any Loan Party) that is
the subject of a sale or other disposition permitted hereby or to which Required
Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such consent under
Section 10.01) have otherwise consented, or (ii) release any
Guarantor from the Guaranty (364-Day) that is the subject of a sale or other
disposition permitted hereby or to which the Lenders have given their consent
under Section 10.01.
2. Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the
contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender
hereby agree that no Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon
any of the collateral under the Pledge Agreement or any supplement thereto or to
enforce the Guaranty (364-Day) or the Interco Subordination Agreement, as
applicable, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies
hereunder may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of
Lenders in accordance with the terms hereof and all powers, rights and remedies
under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative
Agent.

ARTICLE XMISCELLANEOUS

10.01 Amendments,
Etc.

No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement
or any other Loan Document, and no consent to any departure by the Borrower or
any other Loan Party therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing signed by
the Required Lenders and the Borrower or the applicable Loan Party, as the case
may be, and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent, and each such waiver or
consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific
purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such
amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by each of the
Lenders directly affected thereby and by the Borrower, and acknowledged by the
Administrative Agent, do any of the following:

1. postpone any date fixed by this Agreement or any other
Loan Document for any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts due

2. reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest
specified herein on, any Loan, or (subject to clause (iii) of the
flush paragraph below) any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any

the Required Lenders shall be necessary to amend the definition of "Default
Rate" or to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest at the
Default Rate;
3. change the Pro Rata Share of any Lender (except for any
such change resulting from
Sections 2.12 or 3.06(b));
4. amend this Section 10.01 or any provision

provision above, (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in
writing and signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to the Required
Lenders, each directly-affected Lender or all the Lenders, as the case may be,
affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or
any other Loan Document; and (ii) the Fee Letters may be amended, or rights
or privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed only by the parties
thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any Lender that has
failed to fund any portion of any Credit Extension required to be funded by it
hereunder shall not have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment,
waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Pro Rata Share of such Lender may
not be increased (except for any such increase resulting from
Sections 2.12, or 3.06(b)) without the consent of
such Lender.

10.02 Notices
and Other Communications; Facsimile Copies.

1. General. Unless otherwise expressly provided
herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in
writing (including by facsimile transmission) and mailed, faxed or delivered, to
the address, facsimile number or (subject to Section 10.02(c))
electronic mail address specified for notices on Schedule 10.02; or,
in the case of the Borrower or any Agent, to such other address as shall be
designated by such party in a notice to the other parties, and in the case of
any other party, to such other address as shall be designated by such party in a
notice to the Borrower and such Agent. All such notices and other communications
shall be deemed to be given or made upon the earlier to occur of (i) actual
receipt by the intended recipient and (ii) (A) if delivered by hand or
by courier, when signed for by the intended recipient; (B) if delivered by
mail, four Business Days after deposit in the mails, postage prepaid;

provided, however, that notices and other communications to the
Administrative Agent pursuant to Article II shall not be effective
until actually received by such Person. Any notice or other communication
permitted to be given, made or confirmed by telephone hereunder shall be given,
made or confirmed by means of a telephone call to the intended recipient at the
number specified on Schedule 10.02, it being understood and agreed
that a voicemail message shall in no event be effective as a notice,
communication or confirmation hereunder.
2. Effectiveness of Facsimile Documents and
Signatures. Loan Documents may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile.
The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to
applicable Law, have the same force and effect as manually-signed originals and
shall be binding on all Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.
The Administrative Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures
be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof; provided,
however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit
the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature.
3. Limited Use of Electronic Mail. Electronic mail
and internet and intranet websites may be used only to distribute routine
communications, such as financial statements and other information, and to
distribute Loan Documents for execution by the parties thereto, and may not be
used for any other purpose.
4. Reliance by Administrative Agent and Lenders. The
Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any
notices (including telephonic Loan Notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of
the Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified
herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of
notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the
recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Borrower shall indemnify
each Agent-Related Person and each Lender from all losses, costs, expenses and
liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice
purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower. All telephonic notices to and
other communications with the Arranger or the Administrative Agent may be
recorded by the Arranger or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, and each of
the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.

10.03 No
Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.

No failure by any Lender or any Agent to exercise,
and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or
privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy,
power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein or
therein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies,
powers and privileges provided by law.

10.04 Attorney
Costs, Expenses and Taxes.

The Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse
each Agent-Related Person for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with
the development, preparation, negotiation, syndication and execution of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any amendment, waiver, consent or
other modification of the provisions hereof and thereof (whether or not the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby are consummated), and the
consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby, including all Attorney Costs and costs and expenses in connection with
the use of IntraLinks, Inc. or other similar information transmission systems in
connection with this Agreement; and (b) to pay or reimburse each Agent-
Related Person and each Lender for all costs and expenses incurred in connection
with the enforcement, attempted enforcement, or preservation of any rights or
remedies under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including all such
costs and expenses incurred during any "workout" or restructuring in respect of
the Obligations and during any legal proceeding, including any proceeding under
any Debtor Relief Law), including all Attorney Costs. The foregoing costs and
expenses shall include (i) all search, filing, recording, title insurance
and appraisal charges and fees and taxes related thereto, (ii) other out-
of-pocket expenses incurred by each Agent-Related Person, (iii) the cost of
independent public accountants and other outside experts retained by each Agent-
Related Person or any Lender, (iv) all other the actual costs and
reasonable expenses of creating and perfecting Liens in favor of the
Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Lenders pursuant hereto, including
reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel to each Agent and of
counsel providing any opinions that any Agent or Required Lenders may request in
respect of such collateral or the Liens created pursuant to the Loan Documents,
and (v) all the actual costs and reasonable expenses (including the
reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of any appraisers, consultants,
advisors and agents employed or retained by the Administrative Agent and its
counsel) in connection with the custody or preservation of any of the collateral
described in the Loan Documents. The agreements in this
Section 10.04 shall survive the termination of the Commitments and
repayment of all other Obligations.

10.05 Indemnification by the Borrower.

Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby
are consummated, the Borrower agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each
Agent-Related Person, each Lender and their respective Affiliates, directors,
officers, employees, counsel, agents and attorneys-in-fact (collectively the
"Indemnitees") from and against: (a) any and all claims, demands,
actions or causes of action that are asserted against any Indemnitee by any
Person relating directly or indirectly to a claim, demand, action or cause of
action that such Person asserts or may assert against any Loan Party, any
Affiliate of any Loan Party or any of their respective officers or directors;
(b) any and all claims, demands, actions or causes of action that may at
any time (including at any time following repayment of the Obligations and the
resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent or the replacement of any
Lender) be asserted or imposed against any Indemnitee, arising out of or
relating to, the Loan Documents, any predecessor loan documents, the
Commitments, the use or contemplated use of the proceeds of any Credit
Extension, or the relationship of any Loan Party, any Agent and the Lenders
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (c) any administrative or
investigative proceeding by any Governmental Authority arising out of or related
to a claim, demand, action or cause of action described in
clauses (a) or (b) above; and (d) any and all
liabilities (including liabilities under indemnities), losses, costs or expenses
(including Attorney Costs) that any Indemnitee suffers or incurs as a result of
the assertion of any foregoing claim, demand, action, cause of action or
proceeding, or as a result of the preparation of any defense in connection with
any foregoing claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding, in all
cases, whether or not arising out of the negligence of an Indemnitee, and
whether or not an Indemnitee is a party to such claim, demand, action, cause of
action or proceeding (all the foregoing, collectively, the "Indemnified
Liabilities"); provided that no Indemnitee shall be entitled to
indemnification for any claim to the extent that such claim is determined in a
final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been
caused primarily by such Indemnitee's own gross negligence or willful
misconduct. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use
by others of any information or other materials obtained through IntraLinks,
Inc. or other similar information transmission systems in connection with this
Agreement. To the extent that the undertakings to defend, indemnify, pay and
hold harmless set forth in this Section 10.05 may be unenforceable
in whole or in part because they are violative of any law or public policy, the
applicable Loan Party shall contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted
to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all
Indemnified Liabilities incurred by Indemnitees or any of them. To the extent
permitted by applicable law, no Loan Party shall assert, and each hereby waives,
any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special,
indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual
damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, any Loan
Document or any agreement or instrument or transaction contemplated hereby. The
agreements in this Section 10.05 shall survive the termination of
the Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations.

10.06 Marshalling; Payments Set Aside.

No Agent nor any Lender
shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Loan Party
or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations.
To the extent that any Loan Party makes a payment or payments to the any Agent
or Lenders (or to any Agent, on behalf of the Lenders), or any Agent or the
Lenders enforce any security interests or exercise their rights of set-off, and
such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or set-off or any
part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or
preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or
any other party under any Debtor Relief Law, any other state or federal law,
common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery,
(a) the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and
all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and
continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been
made or such enforcement or set-off had not occurred, and (b) each Lender
severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable
share of any amount so recovered from or paid by any Agent, plus interest
thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate
per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.

10.07 Successors and Assigns.

1. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors
and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or
otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior
written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the
Borrower without such consent shall be null and void). Nothing in this
Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person
(other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns
permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the
Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of
this Agreement.
2. Any Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees
all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including
all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it);
provided that (i) except in the case of an assignment of the entire
remaining amount of the assigning Lender's Commitment and the Loans at the time
owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a
Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the
Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder)
subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and
Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative
Agent, shall not be less than $5,000,000.00, unless each of the Administrative
Agent and, so long as no Event of Default or Default has occurred and is
continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents in writing (each such consent not to
be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (ii) each partial assignment shall be
made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender's
rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Revolving Loans
or the Revolving Commitments assigned, and (iii) the parties to each
assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment
and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500.00.
Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant
to Section 10.07(c), from and after the effective date specified in
each Assignment and Acceptance, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a
party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and
Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement,
and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest
assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations
under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering
all of the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such
Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the
benefits of Sections 3.07, 10.04 and 10.05). Upon
request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver new or
replacement Notes to the assigning Lender and the assignee Lender. Any
assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement
that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of
this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and
obligations in accordance with Section 10.07(d).
3. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose
as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent's Office
a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the
recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of,
and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms
hereof from time to time (the "Register"). The entries in the Register
shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the
terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement,
notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for
inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time
to time upon reasonable prior notice.
4. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section
10.07, as of the "Effective Date" specified in the applicable
Assignment and Acceptance: (i) the assignee thereunder shall have the
rights and obligations of a "Lender" hereunder to the extent such rights
and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment
and Acceptance and shall thereafter be a party hereto and a "Lender" for
all purposes hereof; (ii) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the
extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned thereby pursuant
to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights (other than any rights
which survive the termination hereof under Section 10.13) and be
released from its obligations hereunder (and, in the case of an Assignment and
Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender's rights
and obligations hereunder, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto;
provided, anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary
notwithstanding, such assigning Lender shall continue to be entitled to the
benefit of all indemnities hereunder as specified herein with respect to matters
arising out of the prior involvement of such assigning Lender as a Lender
hereunder); (iii) the Commitments shall be modified to reflect the
Commitment of such assignee and any Loan Commitment of such assigning Lender, if
any; and (iv) if any such assignment occurs after the issuance of any Note
hereunder, the assigning Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment
or as promptly thereafter as practicable, surrender its applicable Notes to the
Administrative Agent for cancellation, and thereupon the Borrower shall issue
and deliver new Notes, if so requested by the assignee and/or assigning Lender,
to such assignee and/or to such assigning Lender, with appropriate insertions,
to reflect the new Commitments and/or outstanding Loans of the assignee and/or
the assigning Lender.
5. Any Lender may, without the consent of, or notice to, the
Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks
or other entities (a "Participant") in all or a portion of such Lender's
rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its
Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such
Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such
Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the
performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative
Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such
Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this
Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a
participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to
enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of
any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or
instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the
Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification that would
(i) postpone any date upon which any payment of money is scheduled to be
paid to such Participant, (ii) reduce the principal, interest (except in
connection with a waiver of applicable post-default increase in interest rates),
fees or other amounts payable to such Participant, or (iii) release all or
substantially all of the Guarantors from the Guaranty (364-Day) or release all
or substantially all of the collateral described in the Loan Documents (it being
understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory
reduction in the Commitment shall not constitute a change in the terms of such
participation, and that an increase in any Commitment or Loan shall be permitted
without the consent of any participant if the participant's participation is not
increased as a result thereof). Subject to Section 10.07(f), the
Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of
Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 to the same extent
as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to
Section 10.07(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant
also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.09 as though it
were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to
Section 2.11 as though it were a Lender.
6. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any
greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.04 than the
applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the
participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to
such Participant is made with the Borrower's prior written consent. A
Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be
entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01 unless the Borrower is
notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant
agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with
Section 10.15 as though it were a Lender.
7. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security
interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including
under its Notes, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any
pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank;
provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release a Lender from
any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for
such Lender as a party hereto.
8. If the consent of the Borrower to an assignment or to an
Eligible Assignee is required hereunder (including a consent to an assignment
which does not meet the minimum assignment threshold specified in
clause (i) of the proviso to the first sentence of
Section 10.07(b)), the Borrower shall be deemed to have given its
consent five Business Days after the date notice thereof has been delivered by
the assigning Lender (through the Administrative Agent) unless such consent is
expressly refused by the Borrower prior to such fifth Business Day.
9. As used herein, the following terms have the following
meanings:

"Eligible Assignee" means (a) a Lender,
(b) an Affiliate of a Lender, (c) an Approved Fund and (d) any
other Person (other than a natural Person or the Borrower) approved by (i) the
Administrative Agent and (ii) unless (x) such Person is taking delivery of
an assignment in connection with physical settlement of a credit derivatives
transaction or (y) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the
Borrower (each such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

"Fund" means any Person (other than a natural Person)
that is (or will be) engaged in making, purchasing, holding or otherwise
investing in commercial loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary
course of its business.

"Approved Fund" means any Fund that is administered or
managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender, or (c) an
entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.

10.08 Confidentiality.

Each of the Agents and the Lenders agrees to
maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that
Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates' directors,
officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other
advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made
will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed
to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent requested by any
regulatory authority; (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or
regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other
party to this Agreement; (e) in connection with the exercise of any
remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement
or the enforcement of rights hereunder; (f) subject to an agreement
containing provisions substantially the same as those of this
Section 10.08, to (i) any Eligible Assignee of or Participant
in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights
or obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) any direct or indirect
contractual counterparty or prospective counterparty (or such contractual
counterparty's or prospective counterparty's professional advisor) to any credit
derivative transaction relating to obligations of the Loan Parties;
(g) with the consent of the Borrower; (h) to the extent such
Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a
breach of this Section 10.08, or (ii) becomes available to the
Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source
other than the Borrower; or (i) to the National Association of Insurance
Commissioners or any other similar organization or any nationally recognized
rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender's or its
Affiliates' investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect
to such Lender or its Affiliates. In addition, each of the Agents and the
Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this
Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending
industry, and service providers to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in
connection with the administration and management of this Agreement, the other
Loan Documents, the Commitments, and the Credit Extensions. For the purposes of
this Section, "Information" means all information received from the Loan
Parties relating to the Loan Parties or their businesses, other than any such
information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a
nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Loan Parties; provided
that, in the case of information received from the Loan Parties after the date
hereof, such information is clearly identified in writing at the time of
delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of
Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied
with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of
care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would
accord to its own confidential information.

10.09 Right to
Set Off.

In addition to any rights and remedies of the
Lenders provided by law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any
Event of Default, each Lender is authorized at any time and from time to time,
without prior notice to the Borrower or any other Loan Party, any such notice
being waived by the Borrower (on its own behalf and on behalf of each Loan
Party) to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all
deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time
held by, and other indebtedness at any time owing by, such Lender to or for the
credit or the account of the respective Loan Parties against any and all
Obligations owing to such Lender, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of
whether or not the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall have made demand
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations
may be contingent or unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that
of the deposit account. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such
Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice
shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

10.10 Interest
Rate Limitation.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan
Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted
by applicable Law (the "Maximum Rate"). If the Administrative Agent or
any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate,
the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it
exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether
the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or
a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by
applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an
expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary
prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate,
and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the
contemplated term of the Obligations.

10.11 Counterparts.

This Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which
together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

10.12 Integration.

This Agreement, together with the other Loan
Documents, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on the
subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written
or oral, on such subject matter, including commitment letters (but not fee
letters). In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement
and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall
control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies
in favor of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in any other Loan Document
shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was
drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall
be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance
with the fair meaning thereof.

10.13 Survival
of Representations and Warranties.

All representations and warranties made hereunder
and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or
thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and
delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or
will be relied upon by the Agent-Related Parties and each Lender, regardless of
any investigation made by the Agent-Related Parties or any Lender or on their
behalf and notwithstanding that the Agent-Related Parties or any Lender may have
had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default at the time of any
Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any
Loan or any other Obligation shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.

10.14 Severability.

Any provision of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents to which the Borrower is a party that is prohibited or unenforceable
in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent
of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining
provisions thereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any
other jurisdiction.

10.15 Foreign
Lenders.

1. Each Lender that is not a "United States Person" within
the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a "Foreign Lender")
shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, prior to receipt of any payment
subject to withholding under the Code (or upon accepting an assignment of an
interest herein), two duly signed completed copies of either IRS Form W-
8BEN or any successor thereto (relating to such Person and entitling it to an
exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax on all payments to be made to
such Person by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement) or IRS Form W-8ECI
or any successor thereto (relating to all payments to be made to such Person by
the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement) or such other evidence satisfactory to
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that such Person is entitled to an
exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. withholding tax. Thereafter and from time
to time, each such Person shall (a) promptly submit to the Administrative
Agent such additional duly completed and signed copies of one of such forms (or
such successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant
United States taxing authorities) as may then be available under then current
United States laws and regulations to avoid, or such evidence as is satisfactory
to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any available exemption from or
reduction of, United States withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be
made to such Person by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement,
(b) promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances
which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction, and
(c) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in
the reasonable judgment of such Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary
(including the re-designation of its Lending Office) to avoid any requirement of
applicable Laws that the Borrower make any deduction or withholding for taxes
from amounts payable to such Person. If such Person fails to deliver the above
forms or other documentation, then the Administrative Agent may withhold from
any interest payment to such Person an amount equivalent to the applicable
withholding tax imposed by Sections 1441 and 1442 of the Code, without
reduction.
2. If any Governmental Authority asserts that the
Administrative Agent did not properly withhold any tax or other amount from
payments made in respect of such Person, such Person shall indemnify the
Administrative Agent therefor, including all penalties and interest, any taxes
imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Agent under this
Section, and costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs) of the Administrative
Agent.
3. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, each Lender
that is a "United States person" within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30)
of the Code shall deliver to the Administrative Agent two duly signed completed
copies of IRS Form W-9. If such Lender fails to deliver such forms, then
the Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender
an amount equivalent to the applicable back-up withholding tax imposed by the
Code, without reduction.
4. The obligation of the Lenders under this
Section 10.15 shall survive the termination of the Commitments, the
payment of all Obligations and the resignation or replacement of the
Administrative Agent.

10.16 Removal
and Replacement of Lenders.

1. Under any circumstances set forth herein providing that
the Borrower shall have the right to remove or replace a Lender as a party to
this Agreement, the Borrower may, upon notice to such Lender and the
Administrative Agent, (i) remove such Lender by terminating such Lender's
Commitment, or (ii) replace such Lender by causing such Lender to assign
its Commitment (without payment of any assignment fee) pursuant to
Section 10.07(b) to one or more other Lenders or Eligible Assignees
procured by the Borrower; provided, however, that if the Borrower
elects to exercise such right with respect to any Lender pursuant to
Section 3.06(b), it shall be obligated to remove or replace, as the
case may be, all Lenders that have made similar requests for compensation
pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04. The Borrower shall
(y) pay in full all principal, interest, fees and other amounts owing to
such Lender through the date of removal or replacement (including any amounts
payable pursuant to Section 3.05; and (z) release such Lender
from its obligations under the Loan Documents. Any Lender being replaced shall
execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such Lender's
Commitment and outstanding Credit Extensions. The Administrative Agent shall
distribute an amended Schedule 2.01, which shall be deemed
incorporated into this Agreement, to reflect changes in the identities of the
Lenders and adjustments of their respective Commitments and Pro Rata Shares
resulting from any such removal or replacement.
2. In order to make all the Lenders' interests in any
outstanding Credit Extensions ratable in accordance with any revised Pro Rata
Shares after giving effect to the removal or replacement of a Lender, the
Borrower shall pay or prepay, if necessary, on the effective date thereof, all
outstanding Loans of all Lenders, together with any amounts due under
Section 3.05. The Borrower may then request Loans from the Lenders
in accordance with their revised Pro Rata Shares. The Borrower may net any
payments required hereunder against any funds being provided by any Lender or
Eligible Assignee replacing a terminating Lender. The effect for purposes of
this Agreement shall be the same as if separate transfers of funds had been made
with respect thereto.
3. This Section 10.16 shall supersede any
provision in Section 10.01 to the contrary.

10.17 Governing
Law.

1. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING SECTIONS 5-
1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK);
PROVIDED THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER SHALL RETAIN ALL
RIGHTS ARISING UNDER FEDERAL LAW.
2. ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS
AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE
OF NEW YORK SITTING IN THE STATE, COUNTY AND CITY OF NEW YORK OR OF THE UNITED
STATES FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF SUCH STATE, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF
THIS AGREEMENT, THE BORROWER CONSENTS, FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS
PROPERTY, TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THOSE COURTS. THE BORROWER
IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION, INCLUDING ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE
OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER
HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN RESPECT
OF ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR OTHER DOCUMENT RELATED THERETO. THE BORROWER WAIVES
PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY SUMMONS, COMPLAINT OR OTHER PROCESS, WHICH MAY BE MADE
BY ANY OTHER MEANS PERMITTED BY THE LAW OF SUCH STATE.

10.18 Waiver of Right to Trial by
Jury.

EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY
WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF
ACTION ARISING UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED

TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER

All covenants hereunder
shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is
not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by
an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another
covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if
such action is taken or condition exists.

10.21 Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders'
Rights.

The obligations of
Lenders hereunder are several and no Lender shall be responsible for the
obligations or Commitment of any other Lender hereunder. Nothing contained
herein or in any other Loan Document, and no action taken by Lenders pursuant
hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Lenders as a partnership, an
association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at
any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and
each Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out
hereof and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an
additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

EXHIBIT L

SUBORDINATION TERMS

The subordinated debt is subordinated to the prior
payment in full of the designated senior debt. The Borrower may not make any
payment on account of principal, premium or interest, including liquidated
damages, if any, on the subordinated debt, or redemption or repurchase of the
notes, if any, with respect thereto, if:

- The Borrower defaults in its obligations to pay
principal, premium, interest or other amount on its designated senior debt,
including a default under any redemption or repurchase obligation, and the
default continues beyond any applicable grace period that the Borrower may have
to make these payments; or
- any other default occurs and is continuing on any
designated senior debt; and
- the default permits the holders of the designated senior
debt to accelerate its maturity; and
- a payment blockage notice has been delivered by the
Borrower, the holder of such debt or such other person permitted to give such
notice.

If payment of the subordinated debt have been blocked by a
payment default on designated senior debt, payments on the subordinated debt may
resume when the payment default has been cured or waived or ceases to exist.

If payments on the subordinated debt have been blocked by a
nonpayment default on designated senior debt, payments on the subordinated debt
may resume on the earlier of:

- the date the nonpayment default is cured or waived or
ceases to exist; or
- 179 days after the payment blockage notice is
received.

No nonpayment default that existed on the day a payment
blockage notice was delivered can be used as the basis of any subsequent payment
blockage notice. In addition, once a holder of designated senior debt has
blocked payment on the subordinated debt by giving a payment blockage notice, no
new period of payment blockage can be commenced pursuant to a subsequent payment
blockage notice unless and until both of the following are satisfied:

- 365 days have elapsed since the initial effectiveness of
the immediately prior payment blockage notice; and
- all scheduled payments of principal, any premium and
interest with respect to the subordinated debt that have come due have been paid
in full in cash.

In addition, all principal, premium, if any, interest and
other amounts due on all senior debt must be paid in full in cash before the
holder of the subordinated debt is entitled to receive any payment otherwise due
upon:

- any acceleration of the principal on the subordinated
debt as a result of any event of default thereunder; or
- any payment or distribution of the Borrower's assets to
creditors upon any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization,
whether voluntary or involuntary, marshaling of assets, assignment for the
benefit of creditors, or in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other
similar proceedings.
