interests shall be deemed to have represented that it is the legal and
beneficial owner of the interests assigned by it and that such interests are
free and clear of any adverse claim, and the purchase price for each such
assignment and purchase shall equal the principal amount of the Loans purchased.
All accrued but unpaid interest and fees due and owing thereon through but not
including the Extension Effective Date shall be paid to such Lender by Borrower
on or as of the Extension Effective Date.

rights and obligations of a Lender under the Credit Agreement and the other
Credit Documents with respect to the interests purchased by it pursuant to such
subsections. If requested by any Purchasing Lender, the Borrower shall execute
and deliver to such Lender (and deliver a copy thereof to the Administrative
Agent) one or more promissory notes evidencing the Loans and Commitments of such
Lender in accordance with subsection 2.5(i) of the Credit Agreement.

authorized to enter into this Amendment; (ii) confirms that it has received a
copy of the Credit Agreement together with copies of the financial statements
delivered pursuant to Section 4.1 of the Credit Agreement and such other
documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit

independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based

document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; (iv) appoints and authorizes the

be bound by the provisions of the Credit Agreement and will perform in
accordance with its terms all the obligations which by the terms of the Credit
Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender including, if it is
organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, its
obligation pursuant to clause (b) of subsection 2.15 of the Credit Agreement.

place thereof and (b) adding a new subsection 1.6 at the end thereof as follows:

         "1.6 Accounting Terms.

         (a) All accounting terms not specifically or completely defined herein
     shall be construed in conformity with, and all financial covenants,
     financial ratios and other financial calculations contained in this
     Agreement shall be prepared in conformity with GAAP as in effect from time
     to time, applied consistently throughout the periods reflected therein,
     except as otherwise specifically prescribed herein.

         (b) If at any time any change in GAAP after January 1, 2004 would
     affect the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth in
     any Credit Document, and either the Borrower or the Required Lenders shall
     so request, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower shall
     negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the
     original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP (subject to the
     approval of the Required Lenders); provided that, until so amended, (i)
     such ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed in accordance with
     GAAP prior to such change therein and (ii) if a request for such an
     amendment has been made, the Borrower shall provide to the Administrative
     Agent and the Lenders financial statements and other documents required
     under this Agreement or as reasonably requested hereunder setting forth a
     reconciliation between calculations of such ratio or requirement made
     before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP."

         3.4 Subsection 2.1(a)(i) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and
restated in its entirety to read as follows:

         (i) Revolving 364 Day Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions
     hereof, each Revolving 364 Day Lender severally agrees to make revolving
     credit loans to the Borrower, from time to time during the Revolving 364
     Day Commitment Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any one time
     outstanding which, when added to such Lender's Commitment Percentage with
     respect to Revolving 364 Day Loans of the then outstanding L/C Obligations,
     does not exceed the amount of such Lender's Revolving 364 Day Commitment.
     During the Revolving 364 Day Commitment Period, the Borrower may use the
     Revolving 364 Day Commitments by borrowing, prepaying the Revolving 364 Day
     Loans, in whole or in part, and reborrowing, all in accordance with the
     terms and conditions hereof. At any time not less than thirty (30) days
     prior to the "Termination Date" (as defined in the Facility A Credit
     Agreement), the Borrower may increase the aggregate Commitments by (I)
     entering into a binding written agreement, substantially in the form of
     Exhibit G hereto, with any Lender to increase the Commitment of such Lender
     (an "Increased Commitment Agreement") which Increased Commitment Agreement
     shall be presented to the Agents for acknowledgment and acceptance (which
     shall not be withheld unless the effect thereof would be to exceed the

                                       7


     maximum permitted amount herein for all Commitments, Facility A Commitments
     and Facility C Commitments (if Facility C exists) in the aggregate) and/or
     (II) subject to the First Offer Requirement (as defined below) enter into a
     binding written agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit H hereto (a
     "Lender Addition Agreement") with any bank, financial institution, or
     Investment Fund to become a Lender under this Agreement by making a
     Commitment and causing such Person to take all other actions required to
     become a new Lender hereunder (a "New Lender"); provided that the sum of
     (i) the aggregate Commitments of all Lenders (including New Lenders), (ii)
     the aggregate Facility A Commitments of all Facility A Lenders and (iii)
     the aggregate Facility C Commitments (if Facility C exists) of all Facility
     C Lenders (if Facility C exists) may not exceed, as of the date all or any
     portion of the Indebtedness comprising the Incremental Facility (as defined
     below) is incurred, an aggregate amount that would cause the Consolidated
     Senior Debt Ratio for the Borrower's most recently ended four full fiscal
     quarters for which internal financial statements are available to be
     greater than 2.0 to 1.0 (determined on a pro forma basis, assuming for
     purposes of this subsection 2.1(a)(i) only, all of the proposed additional
     commitments had been incurred at the beginning of such four-quarter period
     and all Commitments of all Lenders, all Facility A Commitments of all
     Facility A Lenders and all Facility C Commitments (if Facility C exists) of
     all Facility C Lenders (if Facility C exists) that are outstanding
     immediately prior to giving effect to the incurrence of such proposed
     additional commitments have been drawn in full, but taking into account any
     payment or prepayment of any Term Loans or term loans under Facility C (if
     Facility C exists)) (such new or increased commitments, the "Incremental
     Facility"); and provided, further that, no consent of any Lender shall be
     required for such Incremental Facility except for the consents described
     under clauses (I) and (II) above. In order to become a New Lender, a party
     must execute a Lender Addition Agreement and deliver the same to the
     Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent and the Borrower for
     counter-execution. On the Eurodollar Loans Maturity Date (or, subject to
     compliance with subsection 2.16, on any Business Day) occurring on or
     immediately following the date that (i) the Agents have acknowledged their
     acceptance of any Increased Commitment Agreement delivered pursuant to
     clause (I) above or (ii) any Lender Addition Agreement has been executed by
     all necessary parties and delivered to the Agents, the increase in any such
     Lender's Commitment contemplated thereby shall become effective and/or the
     New Lender shall become a party to this Agreement, as applicable. Promptly
     thereafter, the Administrative Agent shall amend Schedule I hereto to
     accurately reflect the Commitments of the Lenders then in existence,
     whereupon such amended Schedule I shall be substituted for the pre-existing
     Schedule I, be deemed a part of this Agreement without any further action
     or consent of any party and be promptly distributed to each Lender and the
     Borrower by the Administrative Agent. The Incremental Facility shall have
     such economic terms (i.e., pricing, amount, tenor, amortization) as shall
     be agreed at the time with the lenders participating therein, and shall,
     otherwise, be on the same terms as this Agreement; provided that without
     the written consent of Required Class Lenders for each Class, (i) the
     applicable interest rate margin under the Incremental Facility shall not
     exceed the Applicable Margin under this Agreement or the "Applicable
     Margin" under and as defined in the Facility A Credit Agreement by more
     than fifty basis points and (ii) the maturity date of the Incremental
     Facility shall be equal to or occurring after the scheduled Termination
     Date under this

                                       8


     Agreement or the "Termination Date" under and as defined in the Facility A
     Credit Agreement; provided, further, that if the Borrower chooses to
     implement the Incremental Facility pursuant to clause (I) or (II) above,
     the Incremental Facility shall have the same economic terms (i.e. pricing,
     tenor, amortization) as this Agreement. In the alternative, without the
     consent of any Lender, Borrower may cause the Incremental Facility to be
     implemented and separately documented as Facility C, which shall have BOA
     as the administrative agent and provide for a ratable sharing of all
     Collateral and Guarantee Obligations under the Guarantees among and between
     the Lenders, the Facility A Lenders and the Facility C Lenders. In any
     case, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to execute, on behalf
     of the Lenders, any amendments and/or other documents necessary to
     implement the Incremental Facility; provided that such amendments and/or
     other documents do not affect any of the rights or obligations of any
     Lender for which the written consent of such Lender is necessary under
     subsection 10.1 unless the written consent of such Lender is received by
     the Administrative Agent. When the Incremental Facility is not implemented
     and separately documented as Facility C, the Borrower shall send the
     Administrative Agent (for distribution to each Lender) a written offer to
     participate in the Incremental Facility pursuant to clause (I) above, and
     each such Lender shall have the right, but no obligation, to commit to a
     ratable portion of the Incremental Facility, provided that no later than
     fourteen (14) days after receipt of such written request, each such Lender
     shall advise the Administrative Agent and the Borrower whether it intends
     to participate in the Incremental Facility and the amount of its proposed
     commitment (the "First Offer Requirement"). Only after satisfying the First
     Offer Requirement and allocating requested commitments to Lenders
     requesting participation in such Incremental Facility shall Borrower be
     permitted to offer participation in any remaining commitments for the
     Incremental Facility to any proposed New Lender pursuant to clause (II)
     above."

     3.5 Subsection 2.12(a) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and
restated in its entirety to read as follows:

         "(a) Each borrowing by the Borrower from the Revolving 364 Day Lenders
     hereunder, each payment by the Borrower on account of any commitment fee
     hereunder and any reduction of the Revolving 364 Day Commitments of
     Revolving 364 Day Lenders shall be made pro rata according to the
     respective Commitment Percentages of the Revolving 364 Day Lenders. Except
     during any period in which an Event of Default has occurred and is
     continuing, each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on
     account of principal of and interest on any Term Loans and/or the Revolving
     364 Day Loans, and any application by the Administrative Agent of the
     proceeds of any Collateral, shall be made pro rata according to the
     respective outstanding principal amounts of such Loans then held by the
     Lenders. All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower
     hereunder in respect of any Loan, whether on account of principal,
     interest, Reimbursement Obligations (whether in respect of Domestic L/Cs or
     Foreign L/Cs), fees, expenses or otherwise, shall be made without set off
     or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 11:00 A.M., New York City time,
     on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the
     Lenders with respect to such Loans, at the Administrative Agent's office
     specified in subsection 10.2, in Dollars and in immediately available
     funds; provided, that with respect to any

                                       9


     Reimbursement Obligations of the Borrower arising from the presentment to
     the Issuing Lender of a draft under a Foreign L/C, the Borrower may make
     payment in the applicable Alternative Currency if such payment is received
     by the Issuing Lender on the date such draft is paid by the Issuing Lender.

         At any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
     all payments (including prepayments) made by the Borrower hereunder and any
     application by the Administrative Agent of the proceeds of any Collateral
     and/or payment under any Guarantee shall be applied in the following order:
     (1) to the ratable payment of all amounts due and owing by the Borrower
     pursuant to subsection 10.5 of this Agreement, subsection 10.5 of the
     Facility A Credit Agreement or subsection 10.5 of the Facility C Credit
     Agreement (if Facility C exists) to the Agents, the Facility A Agents
     and/or the Facility C Agents (if Facility C exists) and, after payment in
     full thereof, to any other Lender, Facility A Lender or Facility C Lender
     (if Facility C exists); (2) to the ratable payment of all interest, fees
     and commissions due and owing under this Agreement, the Facility A Credit
     Agreement or the Facility C Credit Agreement (if Facility C exists) or to
     the Agents, the Facility A Agents, the Facility C Agents (if Facility C
     exists), the Swing Line Lender, any Lender, any Facility A Lender or any
     Facility C Lender (if Facility C exists); and (3) to the ratable payment
     (or cash collateralization) of all other obligations of the Borrower to the
     Agents, the Facility A Agents, the Facility C Agents (if Facility C
     exists), the Swing Line Lender, any Lender, any Facility A Lender or any
     Facility C Lender (if Facility C exists) under any Credit Document,
     Facility A Credit Document, Facility C Credit Document (if Facility C
     exists) or Interest Rate Agreement with any Lender, any Facility A Lender
     or any Facility C Lender (if Facility C exists), including, without
     limitation the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Loans, Facility A
     Loans and Facility C Loans (if Facility C exists), the aggregate L/C
     Obligations, Facility A L/C Obligations and Facility C L/C Obligations (if
     Facility C exists) and the aggregate outstanding amount of Interest Rate
     Agreement Obligations to any Lender, any Facility A Lender and any Facility
     C Lender (if Facility C exists). For purposes of applying payments and
     proceeds distributed under clause 3 above, each Lender will first apply
     such amounts to all outstanding Loans and Interest Rate Agreement
     Obligations then due and owing to such Lender before such amounts will be
     held as cash collateral for L/C Obligations in which such Lender is a L/C
     Participant.

         The Administrative Agent, the Facility A Administrative Agent and the
     Facility C Administrative Agent (if Facility C exists) shall ratably
     distribute such payments to the applicable Lenders, the Facility A Lenders
     and the Facility C Lenders (if Facility C exists) promptly upon receipt in
     like funds as received. If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on
     a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next
     succeeding Business Day, and, with respect to payments of principal,
     interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such
     extension."

     3.6 Subsection 6.10(b) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and
restated in its entirety to read as follows:

                                       10


         "(b) With respect to any Person that, subsequent to the Original
     Closing Date, becomes a direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Borrower,
     promptly (and in any event within 30 days after such Person becomes a
     Subsidiary): (i) cause such new Subsidiary to become a party to the
     Subsidiary Guarantee and, to the extent such Subsidiary holds any Capital
     Stock of any Subsidiary that is not an Immaterial Subsidiary, to the
     Subsidiary Pledge Agreement and (ii) if requested by the Administrative
     Agent or the Required Lenders, deliver to the Administrative Agent legal
     opinions relating to the matters described in clause (i) immediately
     preceding, which opinions shall be in form and substance, and from counsel,
     reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the
     foregoing, no Immaterial Subsidiary, Foreign Subsidiary, Non-Wholly Owned
     Subsidiary or TCAS Subsidiary (except as provided below) of the Borrower or
     its Subsidiaries shall be required to execute a Subsidiary Guarantee or
     Subsidiary Pledge Agreement, and no more than 65% of the total combined
     voting power of the Capital Stock of or equity interests in (A) any direct
     or indirect Foreign Subsidiary of the Borrower or (B) any direct or
     indirect Subsidiary of the Borrower if more than 65% of the assets of such
     Subsidiary are securities of foreign companies (such determination to be
     made on the basis of fair market value), and no Subsidiary of any Person
     described in clause (A) or (B), shall be required to be pledged hereunder;
     provided, that if, after the consummation of any sale of a portion of
     Capital Stock of the TCAS Subsidiary, the TCAS Subsidiary thereafter
     becomes a Wholly Owned Subsidiary, then the TCAS Subsidiary shall become a
     party to the Subsidiary Guarantee and Subsidiary Pledge Agreement and the
     Borrower shall promptly (and in any event within 30 days after such event
     occurs) comply with the requirements of this subsection 6.10(b) with
     respect to the TCAS Subsidiary; provided, further, that if any Non-Wholly
     Owned Subsidiary thereafter becomes a Wholly Owned Subsidiary, then such
     Subsidiary shall become a party to the Subsidiary Guarantee and Subsidiary
     Pledge Agreement and Borrower shall promptly (and in any event within 30
     days after such event occurs) comply with the requirements of this
     subsection 6.10(b) with respect to such Subsidiary; provided, further, that
     if the Borrower shall be required to cause any Immaterial Subsidiary
     (including, without limitation, any Immaterial Subsidiary which is also a
     Non-Wholly Owned Subsidiary) to become bound by any guarantee of
     Indebtedness for borrowed money in respect of any Subordinated Indebtedness
     or Indebtedness incurred pursuant to subsection 7.2(d), the Borrower shall
     cause such Subsidiary to execute a Subsidiary Guarantee and cause the same
     to be delivered to the Administrative Agent promptly (and in any event
     within 30 days after such event occurs); provided, further, that no
     Guarantee Obligation of any Immaterial Subsidiary in effect at the time
     such Subsidiary becomes a Subsidiary of the Borrower shall trigger a
     requirement that the Borrower cause such Subsidiary to execute and deliver
     a Subsidiary Guarantee pursuant to the immediately preceding proviso unless
     the Borrower is required, by virtue of such Guarantee Obligation, to cause
     such Subsidiary to become bound by a guarantee of Indebtedness for borrowed
     money in respect of any Subordinated Indebtedness. Notwithstanding anything
     to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Borrower shall cause at
     all times Subsidiaries that, together with the Borrower, comprise not less
     than seventy-five percent (75%) of Consolidated Total Assets to be party to
     the Subsidiary Guarantee; provided that for purposes of determining
     compliance with this requirement, the value of Capital Stock of any
     Subsidiary shall be deemed excluded; provided, further,

                                       11


     that if any Subsidiary is a Non-Wholly Owned Subsidiary, the assets of such
     Subsidiary to be included in the above calculation shall be reduced by the
     minority interest for such Subsidiary as reported in the Borrower's
     consolidated balance sheet."
