                          CREDIT AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

        THIS CREDIT AND SECURITY AGREEMENT, dated as of January 31, 2003 is
entered into by and among:

        (a)     Massey Receivables Corporation, a Delaware corporation
("Borrower"),

        (b)     A.T. Massey Coal Company, Inc., a Virginia corporation
("A.T.Massey"), as initial Servicer (the Servicer together with Borrower, the
"Loan Parties" and each, a "Loan Party"),

        (c)     The entities listed on Schedule A to this Agreement (together
with any of their respective successors and assigns hereunder, the "Liquidity
Banks"),

        (d)     Blue Ridge Asset Funding Corporation, a Delaware corporation
("Blue Ridge"), and

        (e)     Wachovia Bank, National Association, as agent for the Lenders
hereunder or any successor agent hereunder (together with its successors and
assigns hereunder, the "Agent").

        Unless defined elsewhere herein, capitalized terms used in this
Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in Exhibit I.

                             PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS

        Borrower desires to borrow from the Lenders from time to time.

        Blue Ridge may, in its absolute and sole discretion, make Advances to
Borrower from time to time.

        In the event that Blue Ridge declines to make any Advance, the Liquidity
Banks shall, at the request of Borrower, make Advances from time to time.

        Wachovia Bank, National Association has been requested and is willing to
act as Agent on behalf of Blue Ridge and the Liquidity Banks in accordance with
the terms hereof.

                                   ARTICLE I

                                  THE ADVANCES

        SECTION 1.1     CREDIT FACILITY.

        (a)     Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, from time
to time prior to the Facility Termination Date:

                (i)     Borrower may, at its option, request Advances from the
        Lenders in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not
        to exceed the lesser of the

<PAGE>

        Aggregate Commitment and the Borrowing Base (such lesser amount, the
        "Borrowing Limit"); and

                (ii)    Blue Ridge may, at its option, make the requested
        Advance, or if Blue Ridge shall decline to make any Advance, except as
        otherwise provided in Section 1.2, the Liquidity Banks severally agree
        to make Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to the requested
        Advance.

        Each of the Advances, and all other Obligations, shall be secured by the
Collateral as provided in Article XIII. It is the intent of Blue Ridge to fund
all Advances by the issuance of Commercial Paper.

        (b)     Borrower may, upon at least 10 days' notice to the Agent,
terminate in whole or reduce in part, ratably among the Liquidity Banks, the
unused portion of the Aggregate Commitment; provided that each partial reduction
of the Aggregate Commitment shall be in an amount equal to at least $10,000,000
(or a larger integral multiple of $1,000,000 if in excess thereof) and shall
reduce the Commitments of the Liquidity Banks ratably in accordance with their
respective Pro Rata Shares.

        SECTION 1.2     INCREASES.

        Borrower shall provide the Agent with at least two (2) Business Days'
prior notice in a form set forth as Exhibit II hereto of each Advance (each, a
"Borrowing Notice"). Each Borrowing Notice shall be subject to Section 6.2
hereof and, except as set forth below, shall be irrevocable and shall specify
the requested increase in Aggregate Principal (which shall not be less than
$1,000,000 or a larger integral multiple of $100,000) and the Borrowing Date
(which, in the case of any Advance after the initial Advance hereunder, shall
only be on a Settlement Date) and, in the case of an Advance to be funded by the
Liquidity Banks, the requested Interest Rate and Interest Period. Following
receipt of a Borrowing Notice, the Agent will determine whether Blue Ridge
agrees to make the requested Advance. If Blue Ridge declines to make a proposed
Advance, Borrower may cancel the Borrowing Notice or, in the absence of such a
cancellation, the Advance will be made by the Liquidity Banks. On the date of
each Advance, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set forth
in Article VI, Blue Ridge or the Liquidity Banks, as applicable, shall deposit
to the Facility Account an amount equal to (a) in the case of Blue Ridge, the
principal amount of the requested Advance or (b) in the case of a Liquidity
Bank, such Liquidity Bank's Pro Rata Share of the principal amount of the
requested Advance.

        SECTION 1.3     DECREASES.

        Except as provided in Section 1.4, Borrower shall provide the Agent with
prior written notice in conformity with the Required Notice Period (a "Reduction
Notice") of any proposed reduction of Aggregate Principal. Such Reduction Notice
shall designate (a) the date (the "Proposed Reduction Date") upon which any such
reduction of Aggregate Principal shall occur (which date shall give effect to
the applicable Required Notice Period), and (b) the amount of Aggregate
Principal to be reduced which shall be applied ratably to the Loans of Blue
Ridge and the Liquidity Banks in accordance with the amount of principal (if
any) owing to Blue Ridge, on

                                        2

<PAGE>

the one hand, and the amount of principal (if any) owing to the Liquidity Banks
(ratably, based on their respective Pro Rata Shares), on the other hand (the
"Aggregate Reduction"). Only one (1) Reduction Notice shall be outstanding at
any time.

        SECTION 1.4     DEEMED COLLECTIONS; BORROWING LIMIT.

        (a)     If on any day:

                (i)     the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable is reduced as
        a result of any defective or rejected goods or services, any cash
        discount or any other adjustment by any Originator or any Affiliate
        thereof, or as a result of any tariff or other governmental or
        regulatory action, or

                (ii)    the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable is reduced or
        canceled as a result of a setoff in respect of any claim by the Obligor
        thereof (whether such claim arises out of the same or a related or an
        unrelated transaction), or

                (iii)   the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable is reduced on
        account of the obligation of any Originator or any Affiliate thereof to
        pay to the related Obligor any rebate or refund, or

                (iv)    the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable is less than
        the amount included in calculating the Net Pool Balance for purposes of
        any Monthly Report (for any reason other than such Receivable becoming a
        Defaulted Receivable), or

                (v)     any of the representations or warranties of Borrower set
        forth in Section 5.1(i), (j), (r), (s), (t) or (u) were not true when
        made with respect to any Receivable,

then, on such day, Borrower shall be deemed to have received a Collection of
such Receivable (A) in the case of clauses (i)-(iv) above, in the amount of such
reduction or cancellation or the difference between the actual Outstanding
Balance and the amount included in calculating such Net Pool Balance, as
applicable; and (B) in the case of clause (v) above, in the amount of the
Outstanding Balance of such Receivable and not later than two (2) Business Days
thereafter shall pay to the Agent's Account the amount of any such Collection
deemed to have been received in the same manner as actual cash collections are
distributed under the terms of this Agreement. In the case of any Receivable as
to which any Deemed Collection of the full Outstanding Balance thereof is
received as provided for in subclause (B) above, then, upon identification of
such Receivable in the next following Monthly Report, the Agent's security
interest in such Receivable and the Related Security thereto shall be
automatically released.

        (b)     Borrower shall ensure that the Aggregate Principal at no time
exceeds the Borrowing Limit. If at any time the Aggregate Principal exceeds the
Borrowing Limit, Borrower shall immediately pay to the Agent, in immediately
available funds, an amount to be applied to reduce the Aggregate Principal (as
allocated by the Agent), such that after giving effect to such payment the
Aggregate Principal is less than or equal to the Borrowing Limit.

                                        3

<PAGE>

        SECTION 1.5     PAYMENT REQUIREMENTS.

        All amounts to be paid or deposited by any Loan Party pursuant to any
provision of this Agreement shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the
terms hereof no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the day when due in
immediately available funds, and if not received by 11:00 a.m. (New York time)
shall be deemed to be received on the next succeeding Business Day. If such
amounts are payable to a Lender they shall be paid to the Agent's Account, for
the account of such Lender, until otherwise notified by the Agent. Upon notice
to Borrower, the Agent may debit the Facility Account for all amounts due and
payable hereunder. All computations of CP Costs, Interest, per annum fees
calculated as part of any CP Costs, per annum fees hereunder and per annum fees
under the Fee Letter shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the
actual number of days elapsed. If any amount hereunder shall be payable on a day
which is not a Business Day, such amount shall be payable on the next succeeding
Business Day.

        SECTION 1.6     RATABLE LOANS; FUNDING MECHANICS; LIQUIDITY FUNDINGS.

        (a)     Each Advance hereunder shall consist of one or more Loans made
by Blue Ridge and/or the Liquidity Banks.

        (b)     Each Lender funding any Loan shall transfer the principal amount
of its Loan to the Agent on the applicable Borrowing Date and, subject to its
receipt of such Loan proceeds, the Agent shall transfer such funds to the
account maintained by Borrower with Wachovia Bank, National Association on such
Borrowing Date.

        (c)     While it is the intent of Blue Ridge to fund each requested
Advance through the issuance of its Commercial Paper, the parties acknowledge
that if Blue Ridge is unable, or Blue Ridge or the Agent determines that it is
undesirable, to issue Commercial Paper to fund all or any portion of its Loans,
or is unable to repay such Commercial Paper upon the maturity thereof, Blue
Ridge may put all or any portion of its Loans to the Liquidity Banks at any time
pursuant to the Liquidity Agreement to finance or refinance the necessary
portion of its Loans through a Liquidity Funding to the extent available. The
Liquidity Fundings may be Alternate Base Rate Loans or LIBO Rate Loans, or a
combination thereof, selected by Borrower in accordance with Article IV.
Regardless of whether a Liquidity Funding constitutes the direct funding of a
Loan, an assignment of a Loan made by Blue Ridge or the sale of one or more
participations in a Loan made by Blue Ridge, each Liquidity Bank participating
in a Liquidity Funding shall have the rights of a "Lender" hereunder with the
same force and effect as if it had directly made a Loan to Borrower in the
amount of its Liquidity Funding.

        (d)     Nothing herein shall be deemed to commit Blue Ridge to make
Loans.

                                   ARTICLE II

                            PAYMENTS AND COLLECTIONS

        SECTION 2.1     RECOURSE OBLIGATIONS.

        Borrower hereby promises to pay the following (collectively, the
"Obligations"):

                                        4

<PAGE>

        (a)     the Aggregate Principal on and after the Facility Termination
Date as and when Collections are received;

        (b)     the fees set forth in the Fee Letter on the dates specified
therein;

        (c)     all accrued and unpaid Interest on the Alternate Base Rate Loans
on each Settlement Date applicable thereto;

        (d)     all accrued and unpaid Interest on the LIBO Rate Loans on the
last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto;

        (e)     all accrued and unpaid CP Costs on the CP Rate Loans on each
Settlement Date; and

        (f)     all Broken Funding Costs and Indemnified Amounts upon demand.

        SECTION 2.2     COLLECTIONS PRIOR TO AMORTIZATION.

        (a)     Prior to the Facility Termination Date, any Deemed Collections
received by the Servicer and any other Collections received by the Servicer
shall be set aside and held in trust by the Servicer for the payment of any
accrued and unpaid Obligations or for a Reinvestment as provided in this Section
2.2. If at any time any Collections are received by the Servicer prior to the
Facility Termination Date, Borrower hereby requests and Blue Ridge hereby
agrees, simultaneously with such receipt, that such funds be reinvested by
Borrower in the purchase of additional Eligible Receivables (each, a
"Reinvestment") such that after giving effect to such Reinvestment, the
Aggregate Principal is less than or equal to the Borrowing Limit.

        (b)     On each Settlement Date prior to the Facility Termination Date,
the Servicer shall remit to the Agent's Account, for distribution to the
Lenders, from the amounts set aside during the preceding Settlement Period a
portion of the Collections equal to the sum of the following amounts for
application to the Obligations in the order specified:

                first, ratably to the payment of all accrued and unpaid CP
        Costs, Interest and Broken Funding Costs (if any) that are then due and
        owing,

                second, ratably to the payment of all accrued and unpaid fees
        under the Fee Letter (if any) that are then due and owing,

                third, to the accrued and unpaid Servicing Fee (so long as the
        Servicer is not A.T. Massey or an Affiliate of A.T. Massey),

                fourth, if required under Section 1.3 or 1.4, to the ratable
        reduction of Aggregate Principal,

                fifth, for the ratable payment of all other unpaid Obligations,
        if any, that are then due and owing,

                                        5

<PAGE>

                sixth, to the accrued and unpaid Servicing Fee (so long as the
        Servicer is A.T. Massey or an Affiliate of A.T. Massey), and

                seventh, the balance, if any, to Borrower or otherwise in
        accordance with Borrower's instructions.

Collections applied to the payment of Obligations shall be distributed in
accordance with the aforementioned provisions, and, giving effect to each of the
priorities set forth above in this Section 2.2(a), shall be shared ratably
(within each priority) among the Agent and the Lenders in accordance with the
amount of such Obligations owing to each of them in respect of each such
priority.

        SECTION 2.3     COLLECTIONS FOLLOWING AMORTIZATION.

        On (i) each day on which any of the conditions precedent set forth in
Section 6.2 are not satisfied, (ii) the Facility Termination Date and (iii) each
day thereafter, the Servicer shall set aside and hold in trust, for the Secured
Parties, all Collections received on such day. On and after the Facility
Termination Date, the Servicer shall, on each Settlement Date and on each other
Business Day specified by the Agent (after deduction of any accrued and unpaid
Servicing Fee as of such date): (A) remit to the Agent's Account the amounts set
aside pursuant to the preceding two sentences, and (B) apply such amounts to
reduce the Obligations as follows:

                first, to the reimbursement of the Agent's costs of collection
        and enforcement of this Agreement,

                second, ratably to the payment of all accrued and unpaid CP
        Costs, Interest and Broken Funding Costs,

                third, ratably to the payment of all accrued and unpaid fees
        under the Fee Letter,

                fourth, to the ratable reduction of Aggregate Principal,

                fifth, for the ratable payment of all other unpaid Obligations,
        and

                sixth, after the Obligations have been indefeasibly reduced to
        zero, to Borrower.

Collections applied to the payment of Obligations shall be distributed in
accordance with the aforementioned provisions, and, giving effect to each of the
priorities set forth above in this Section 2.3(b), shall be shared ratably
(within each priority) among the Agent and the Lenders in accordance with the
amount of such Obligations owing to each of them in respect of each such
priority.

        SECTION 2.4     PAYMENT RESCISSION.

        No payment of any of the Obligations shall be considered paid or applied
hereunder to the extent that, at any time, all or any portion of such payment or
application is rescinded by application of law or judicial authority, or must
otherwise be returned or refunded for any reason. Borrower shall remain
obligated for the amount of any payment or application so rescinded,

                                        6

<PAGE>

returned or refunded, and shall promptly pay to the Agent (for application to
the Person or Persons who suffered such rescission, return or refund) the full
amount thereof, plus Interest on such amount at the Default Rate from the date
of any such rescission, return or refunding.

        SECTION 2.5     CALCULATION OF CP COSTS, INTEREST, ETC.

        Not later than the 3rd Business Day immediately preceding each Monthly
Reporting Date, the Agent on behalf of the Lenders shall calculate, for the
Calculation Period then most recently ended, the aggregate amount of CP Costs
applicable to all CP Rate Loans for such Calculation Period, the aggregate
amount of Interest applicable to all Liquidity Fundings for such Calculation
Period, the fees payable for such Calculation Period, any Broken Funding Costs
for such Calculation Period, and any other amounts payable hereunder for such
Calculation Period and shall notify Borrower in writing of each such amount on
such day.

                                   ARTICLE III

                               BLUE RIDGE FUNDING

        SECTION 3.1     CP COSTS.

        Borrower shall pay CP Costs with respect to the principal balance of
Blue Ridge's Loans from time to time outstanding. Each Loan of Blue Ridge that
is funded with Pooled Commercial Paper will accrue CP Costs each day on a pro
rata basis, based upon the percentage share that the principal in respect of
such Loan represents in relation to all assets held by Blue Ridge and funded
substantially with related Pooled Commercial Paper.

        SECTION 3.2     [RESERVED].

        SECTION 3.3     CP COSTS PAYMENTS.

        On each Settlement Date, Borrower shall pay to the Agent (for the
benefit of Blue Ridge) an aggregate amount equal to all accrued and unpaid CP
Costs in respect of the principal associated with all CP Rate Loans for the
Calculation Period then most recently ended in accordance with Article II.

        SECTION 3.4     DEFAULT RATE.

        From and after the occurrence of an Amortization Event, all Loans of
Blue Ridge shall accrue Interest at the Default Rate and shall cease to be CP
Rate Loans.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                             LIQUIDITY BANK FUNDING

        SECTION 4.1     LIQUIDITY BANK FUNDING.

        Prior to the occurrence of an Amortization Event, the outstanding
principal balance of each Liquidity Funding shall accrue interest for each day
during its Interest Period at either the

                                        7

<PAGE>

LIBO Rate or the Alternate Base Rate in accordance with the terms and
conditions hereof. Until Borrower gives notice to the Agent of another Interest
Rate in accordance with Section 4.4, the initial Interest Rate for any Loan
transferred to the Liquidity Banks by Blue Ridge pursuant to the Liquidity
Agreement shall be the Alternate Base Rate (unless the Default Rate is then
applicable). If the Liquidity Banks acquire by assignment from Blue Ridge any
Loan pursuant to the Liquidity Agreement, each Loan so assigned shall each be
deemed to have an Interest Period commencing on the date of any such assignment.

        SECTION 4.2     INTEREST PAYMENTS.

        On the Settlement Date for each Liquidity Funding, Borrower shall pay to
the Agent (for the benefit of the Liquidity Banks) an aggregate amount equal to
the accrued and unpaid Interest for the entire Interest Period of each such
Liquidity Funding in accordance with Article II.

        SECTION 4.3     SELECTION AND CONTINUATION OF INTEREST PERIODS.

        (a)     With consultation from (and approval by) the Agent, Borrower
shall from time to time request Interest Periods for the Liquidity Fundings,
provided that if at any time any Liquidity Funding is outstanding, Borrower
shall always request Interest Periods such that at least one Interest Period
shall end on the date specified in clause (i) of the definition of Settlement
Date.

        (b)     Borrower or the Agent, upon notice to and consent by the other
received at least three (3) Business Days prior to the end of an Interest Period
(the "Terminating Tranche") for any Liquidity Funding, may, effective on the
last day of the Terminating Tranche: (i) divide any such Liquidity Funding into
multiple Liquidity Fundings, (ii) combine any such Liquidity Funding with one or
more other Liquidity Fundings that have a Terminating Tranche ending on the same
day as such Terminating Tranche or (iii) combine any such Liquidity Funding with
a new Liquidity Funding to be made by the Liquidity Banks on the day such
Terminating Tranche ends.

        SECTION 4.4     LIQUIDITY BANK INTEREST RATES.

        Borrower may select the LIBO Rate or the Alternate Base Rate for each
Liquidity Funding. Borrower shall by 12:00 noon (New York time): (a) at least
three (3) Business Days prior to the expiration of any Terminating Tranche with
respect to which the LIBO Rate is being requested as a new Interest Rate and (b)
at least one (1) Business Day prior to the expiration of any Terminating Tranche
with respect to which the Alternate Base Rate is being requested as a new
Interest Rate, give the Agent irrevocable notice of the new Interest Rate for
the Liquidity Funding associated with such Terminating Tranche. Until Borrower
gives notice to the Agent of another Interest Rate, the initial Interest Rate
for any Loan transferred to the Liquidity Banks pursuant to the Liquidity
Agreement shall be the Alternate Base Rate (unless the Default Rate is then
applicable).

        SECTION 4.5     SUSPENSION OF THE LIBO RATE.

        (a)     If any Liquidity Bank notifies the Agent that it has determined
that funding its Pro Rata Share of the Liquidity Fundings at a LIBO Rate would
violate any applicable law, rule,

                                        8

<PAGE>

regulation, or directive of any governmental or regulatory authority, whether or
not having the force of law, or that (i) deposits of a type and maturity
appropriate to match fund its Liquidity Funding at such LIBO Rate are not
available or (ii) such LIBO Rate does not accurately reflect the cost of
acquiring or maintaining a Liquidity Funding at such LIBO Rate, then the Agent
shall suspend the availability of such LIBO Rate and require Borrower to select
the Alternate Base Rate for any Liquidity Funding accruing Interest at such LIBO
Rate.

        (b)     If either (x) less than all of the Liquidity Banks give a notice
to the Agent pursuant to Section 4.5(a) or (y) any Liquidity Bank has demanded
compensation under Section 10.2, each Liquidity Bank which gave such a notice or
demanded such compensation shall be obliged, at the request of Borrower, Blue
Ridge or the Agent, to assign all of its rights and obligations hereunder to (i)
another Liquidity Bank or (ii) another funding entity nominated by Borrower
(with the approval of the Agent) or the Agent that is an Eligible Assignee
willing to participate in this Agreement through the Liquidity Termination Date
in the place of such notifying Liquidity Bank; provided that (A) the notifying
or demanding Liquidity Bank receives payment in full, pursuant to an Assignment
Agreement, of all Obligations owing to it (whether due or accrued), and (B) the
replacement Liquidity Bank otherwise satisfies the requirements of Section
12.1(b).

        SECTION 4.6     DEFAULT RATE.

        From and after the occurrence of an Amortization Event, all Liquidity
Fundings shall accrue Interest at the Default Rate.

                                    ARTICLE V

                         REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

        SECTION 5.1     REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE LOAN PARTIES.

        Each Loan Party hereby represents and warrants to the Agent and the
Lenders, as to itself, as of the date hereof, as of the date of each Advance, of
each Reinvestment and of each Settlement Date that:

        (a)     Existence and Power. Such Loan Party's jurisdiction of
organization is correctly set forth in the preamble to this Agreement. Such Loan
Party is duly organized under the laws of that jurisdiction and no other state
or jurisdiction, and such jurisdiction must maintain a public record showing the
organization to have been organized. Such Loan Party is validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of its state of organization. Such Loan Party is
duly qualified to do business and is in good standing as a foreign entity, and
has and holds all organizational power and all governmental licenses,
authorizations, consents and approvals required to carry on its business in each
jurisdiction in which its business is conducted except where the failure to so
qualify or so hold could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

        (b)     Power and Authority; Due Authorization, Execution and Delivery.
The execution and delivery by such Loan Party of this Agreement and each other
Transaction Document to which it is a party, and the performance of its
obligations hereunder and thereunder and, in the case of Borrower, Borrower's
use of the proceeds of Advances made hereunder, are within its

                                        9

<PAGE>

corporate powers and authority and have been duly authorized by all necessary
corporate action on its part. This Agreement and each other Transaction Document
to which such Loan Party is a party has been duly executed and delivered by such
Loan Party.

        (c)     No Conflict. The execution and delivery by such Loan Party of
this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party, and
the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder do not contravene or
violate (i) its certificate or articles of incorporation or by-laws, (ii) any
law, rule or regulation applicable to it, (iii) any restrictions under any
agreement, contract or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any
of its property is bound, or (iv) any order, writ, judgment, award, injunction
or decree binding on or affecting it or its property, and do not result in the
creation or imposition of any Adverse Claim on assets of such Loan Party or its
Subsidiaries (except as created hereunder) except, in any case, where such
contravention or violation could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect; and no transaction contemplated hereby requires compliance with
any bulk sales act or similar law.

        (d)     Governmental Authorization. Other than the filing of the
financing statements required hereunder, no authorization or approval or other
action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or
regulatory body is required for the due execution and delivery by such Loan
Party of this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a
party and the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder.

        (e)     Actions, Suits. (i) With respect to the initial Servicer, there
are no actions, suits or proceedings pending, or to such knowledge, threatened,
against or affecting it, or any of its properties, in or before any court,
arbitrator or other body, that, if adversely determined, could reasonably be
expected to have a material adverse effect on (A) the financial condition or
operations of the initial Servicer and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, which
could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of
the initial Servicer to perform its obligations under this Agreement, (B) the
legality, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document, (C) the Agent's security interest, for the benefit of the Secured
Parties, in the Receivables generally or in any significant portion of the
Receivables, the Related Security or the Collections with respect thereto, or
(D) the collectibility of the Receivables generally or of any material portion
of the Receivables and (ii) with respect to Borrower, there are no actions,
suits or proceedings pending, or to such knowledge, threatened, against or
affecting it, or any of its properties, in or before any court, arbitrator or
other body, that, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected to have
a Material Adverse Effect. Such Loan Party is not in default with respect to any
order of any court, arbitrator or governmental body.

        (f)     Binding Effect. This Agreement and each other Transaction
Document to which such Loan Party is a party constitute the legal, valid and
binding obligations of such Loan Party enforceable against such Loan Party in
accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforcement may be
limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar
laws relating to or limiting creditors' rights generally and by general
principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a
proceeding in equity or at law).

                                       10

<PAGE>

        (g)     Accuracy of Information, etc. All information, certifications or
statements (but excluding any such information, certification or statement or
portion thereof containing financial projections or other forward looking
statements) heretofore furnished or made by such Loan Party or any of its
Affiliates to the Agent or the Lenders for purposes of or in connection with
this Agreement, any of the other Transaction Documents or any transaction
contemplated hereby or thereby is, and all such information, certifications or
statements (but excluding any such information, certification or statement or
portion thereof containing financial projections or other forward looking
statements) hereafter furnished or made by such Loan Party or any of its
Affiliates to the Agent or the Lenders will be, true and accurate in every
material respect on the date such information is stated or certified and does
not and will not contain any misstatement of material fact or omit to state a
material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein, in
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

        (h)     Use of Proceeds. No proceeds of any Advance hereunder will be
used (i) for a purpose that violates, or would be inconsistent with, (A) Section
7.2(e) of this Agreement or (B) Regulation T, U or X promulgated by the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System from time to time or (ii) to acquire any
security in any transaction which is subject to Section 12, 13 or 14 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

        (i)     Good Title. Borrower is the legal and beneficial owner of the
Receivables and Related Security with respect thereto, free and clear of any
Adverse Claim, except as created by the Transaction Documents. There have been
duly filed all financing statements or other similar instruments or documents
necessary under the UCC (or any comparable law) of all appropriate jurisdictions
to perfect Borrower's ownership interest in each Receivable, its Collections and
the Related Security.

        (j)     Perfection. This Agreement is effective to create a valid
security interest in favor of the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties
in the Collateral to secure payment of the Obligations, free and clear of any
Adverse Claim except as created by the Transactions Documents. There have been
duly filed all financing statements or other similar instruments or documents
necessary under the UCC (or any comparable law) of all appropriate jurisdictions
to perfect the Agent's (on behalf of the Secured Parties) security interest in
the Collateral. Such Loan Party's jurisdiction of organization is a jurisdiction
whose law generally requires information concerning the existence of a
nonpossessory security interest to be made generally available in a filing,
record or registration system as a condition or result of such a security
interest's obtaining priority over the rights of a lien creditor which respect
to collateral.

        (k)     Places of Business and Locations of Records. The principal
places of business and chief executive office of such Loan Party and the offices
where it keeps all of its Records are located at the address(es) listed on
Exhibit III or such other locations of which the Agent has been notified in
accordance with Section 7.2(a) in jurisdictions where all action required by
Section 14.4(a) has been taken and completed. Borrower's Federal Employer
Identification Number is correctly set forth on Exhibit III.

        (l)     Collections. The conditions and requirements set forth in
Section 7.1(j) and Section 8.2 have at all times been satisfied and duly
performed. The names, addresses and jurisdictions of organization of all
Collection Banks, together with the account numbers of the

                                       11

<PAGE>

Collection Accounts of Borrower at each Collection Bank and the post office box
number of each Lock-Box, are listed on Exhibit IV. Borrower has not granted any
Person, other than the Agent as contemplated by this Agreement, dominion and
control of any Lock-Box or Collection Account, or the right to take dominion and
control of any such Lock-Box or Collection Account at a future time or upon the
occurrence of a future event.

        (m)     Material Adverse Effect. (i) The initial Servicer represents and
warrants that since October 31, 2001, no event has occurred that would have a
material adverse effect on the financial condition or operations of the initial
Servicer and its Subsidiaries or the ability of the initial Servicer to perform
its obligations under this Agreement, and (ii) Borrower represents and warrants
that since the date of this Agreement, no event has occurred that would have a
material adverse effect on (A) the financial condition or operations of
Borrower, (B) the ability of Borrower to perform its obligations under the
Transaction Documents, or (C) the collectibility of the Receivables generally or
any material portion of the Receivables.

        (n)     Names. The name in which Borrower has executed this Agreement is
identical to the name of Borrower as indicated on the public record of its state
of organization which shows Borrower to have been organized. In the past five
(5) years, Borrower has not used any corporate names, trade names or assumed
names other than the name in which it has executed this Agreement.

        (o)     Ownership of Borrower. Massey Coal Sales Company, Inc. owns,
directly or indirectly, 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of
Borrower, free and clear of any Adverse Claim. Such capital stock is validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and there are no options, warrants or
other rights to acquire securities of Borrower.

        (p)     Not a Holding Company or an Investment Company. Such Loan Party
is not a "holding company" or a "subsidiary holding company" of a "holding
company" within the meaning of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935,
as amended, or any successor statute. Such Loan Party is not an "investment
company" within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,
or any successor statute.

        (q)     Compliance with Law. Such Loan Party has complied in all
respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations, orders, writs, judgments,
injunctions, decrees or awards to which it may be subject, except where the
failure to so comply could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. Each Receivable, together with the Contract related thereto, does not
contravene any laws, rules or regulations applicable thereto (including, without
limitation, laws, rules and regulations relating to truth in lending, fair
credit billing, fair credit reporting, equal credit opportunity, fair debt
collection practices and privacy), and no part of such Contract is in violation
of any such law, rule or regulation, except where such contravention or
violation could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

        (r)     Compliance with Credit and Collection Policy. Such Loan Party
has complied in all material respects with the Credit and Collection Policy with
regard to each Receivable and the related Contract, and has not made any change
to such Credit and Collection Policy, except such change as to which the
requirements of Section 7.1(a)(vii) have been satisfied.

                                       12

<PAGE>

        (s)     Payments to Applicable Originator. With respect to each
Receivable transferred to Borrower under the Receivables Sale Agreement,
Borrower has given reasonably equivalent value to the applicable Originator in
consideration therefor and such transfer was not made for or on account of an
antecedent debt. No transfer by any Originator of any Receivable under the
Receivables Sale Agreement is or may be voidable under any section of the
Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978 (11 U.S.C. Sections 101 et seq.), as amended.

        (t)     Enforceability of Contracts. Each Contract with respect to each
Receivable is effective to create, and has created, a legal, valid and binding
obligation of the related Obligor to pay the Outstanding Balance of the
Receivable created thereunder and any accrued interest thereon, enforceable
against the Obligor in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may
be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar
laws relating to or limiting creditors' rights generally and by general
principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a
proceeding in equity or at law).

        (u)     Eligible Receivables. Each Receivable included in the Net Pool
Balance as an Eligible Receivable on any date was an Eligible Receivable on such
date.

        (v)     Borrowing Limit. Immediately after giving effect to each
Advance, each Reinvestment and each settlement on any Settlement Date hereunder,
the Aggregate Principal is less than or equal to the Borrowing Limit.

        (w)     Accounting. The manner in which such Loan Party accounts for the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Receivables Sale Agreement
does not jeopardize the true sale analysis.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                             CONDITIONS OF ADVANCES

                                       13

<PAGE>

                (i)     the representations and warranties set forth in Section
        5.1 are true and correct on and as of the date of such Advance (or such
        Settlement Date, as the case may be) such Reinvestment or rollover or
        continuation of any Advance as though made on and as of such date;

                (ii)    no event has occurred and is continuing, or would result
        from such Advance (or the continuation thereof), that will constitute an
        Amortization Event, and no event has occurred and is continuing, or
        would result from such Advance (or the continuation thereof) such
        Reinvestment or rollover or continuation of any Advance, that would
        constitute an Unmatured Amortization Event; and

                (iii)   after giving effect to such Advance such Reinvestment or
        rollover or continuation of any Advance, the Aggregate Principal will
        not exceed the Borrowing Limit.

                                   ARTICLE VII

        reasonably likely to adversely affect the collectibility of the
        Receivables or decrease the credit quality of any newly created
        Receivables, requesting the Agent's consent thereto.

                (viii)  Other Information. Promptly, from time to time, such
        other information, documents, records or reports relating to the
        Receivables or the condition or operations, financial or otherwise, of
        such Loan Party as the Agent may from time to time reasonably request in
        order to protect the interests of the Agent and the Lenders under or as
        contemplated by this Agreement.

        (b)     Notices. Such Loan Party will notify the Agent in writing of any
of the following promptly upon learning of the occurrence thereof, describing
the same and, if applicable, the steps being taken with respect thereto:

                (i)     Amortization Events or Unmatured Amortization Events.
        The occurrence of each Amortization Event and each Unmatured
        Amortization Event, by a statement of an Authorized Officer of such Loan

        against Borrower or (B) the commencement of all actions, suits and
        proceedings before any domestic or foreign Governmental Authority or
        arbitrator, affecting the Performance Guarantor, any Loan Party or any
        of their respective Subsidiaries that (i) seeks injunctive or similar
        relief or (ii) in the reasonable judgment of the Performance Guarantor,
        such Loan Party or such Subsidiary, exposes such Person to liability
        (other than Environmental Liabilities and Costs) in an amount
        aggregating $5,000,000 or more for any group of such actions, suits and
        proceedings arising from any single event or series of related events or
        that, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected to have a
        Material Adverse Effect and the occurrence of any of the following:

                        (A)     that the Performance Guarantor or any Loan Party
                is or may be liable to any Person as a result of a Release or
                threatened Release that could reasonably be expected to subject
                the Loan Parties collectively to Environmental Liabilities and
                Costs of $10,000,000 or more prior to the Termination Date;

                        (B)     the receipt by the Performance Guarantor or any
                Loan Party of notification that any real or personal property of
                such Person is subject to any Environmental Lien, or the
                discovery of action by a Governmental Authority that is
                reasonably expected to result in an Environmental Lien, that
                could take preference or priority over any lien in favor of the
                Agent securing the Obligations;

                        (C)     the receipt by the Performance Guarantor or any
                Loan Party of any notice of violation of or potential liability
                under, or knowledge by such Person that there exists a condition
                that could reasonably be expected to result in a violation of or
                liability under, any Environmental Law (except reclamation
                requirements under the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation
                Act), except for violations and liabilities the consequence of
                which, in the aggregate, would not be reasonably likely to
                subject such Persons collectively to Environmental Liabilities
                and Costs of $10,000,000 or more;

                        (D)     the commencement of any judicial or
                administrative proceeding or investigation alleging a violation
                of or liability under any Environmental Law, that, if adversely
                determined, would have a reasonable likelihood of subjecting the
                Performance Guarantor or any Loan Party collectively to
                Environmental Liabilities and Costs of $10,000,000 or more prior
                to the Termination Date for any group of such judicial or
                administrative proceedings or investigations arising from any
                single event or series of related events; and

                        (E)     any proposed action by the Performance Guarantor
                or any Loan Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any
                proposed change in Environmental Laws that has a reasonable
                likelihood of requiring such Person to obtain additional
                environmental, health or safety Permits or make additional
                capital improvements to obtain compliance with Environmental
                Laws that would cost $5,000,000 or more or subject the
                Performance Guarantor or any Loan Party to additional
                Environmental Liabilities and Costs of $5,000,000 or more prior
                to the Facility Termination Date.

        this clause (vii) need not be made in writing if made by telephone to an
        appropriate officer of the Agent.

        (c)     Compliance with Laws and Preservation of Corporate Existence.
Such Loan Party will comply in all respects with all applicable laws, rules,
regulations, orders, writs, judgments, injunctions, decrees or awards to which
it may be subject, except where the failure to so comply could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Such Loan Party will preserve and
maintain its corporate existence, rights, franchises and privileges in the
jurisdiction of its incorporation, and qualify and remain qualified in good
standing as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction where its business is
conducted, except where the failure to so preserve and maintain or qualify could
not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; provided, that
nothing in this Section 7.1(c) shall prevent (i) any Loan Party (other than
Borrower) from merging into, consolidating with, or selling, leasing or
otherwise transferring all of its assets to a Subsidiary or into, with or to any
Person in a transaction permitted by Section 5.04(d) or Section 5.04(g) of the
Credit Agreements; provided, that (x) the Performance Guarantor shall have
agreed in writing, prior to or simultaneously with, such action, that such
action will have no effect on the obligations of the Performance Guarantor under
the Performance Undertaking with respect to the affected Person, (y) if such
Loan Party is not the surviving entity in any such merger or consolidation, both
(A) the successor entity assumes all of the Servicer's duties and obligations

writing, prior to or simultaneously with, such action, that the obligations of
such Person shall be covered by the Performance Guarantor under the Performance
Undertaking and (z) the Agent shall have received each of the following: (A) at
least thirty (30) days' prior written notice thereof, (B) at least ten (10) days
prior to such merger, consolidation, sale, lease, or transfer, all financing
statements, instruments and other documents requested by the Agent in connection
with such merger, consolidation, sale, lease, or transfer and (C) an opinion of
Hunton & Williams or such other counsel acceptable to Agent and its assigns to
the effect that such assumption agreement is the legal, valid, binding and
enforceable obligation of such Person and that the Agent's security interest
(for the benefit of the Secured Parties) is perfected and of first priority,
such opinion to be in form and substance acceptable to Agent and its assigns or
(ii) any Loan Party (other than Borrower) from abandoning or disposing of any of
its property (other

                                       17

<PAGE>

than any Receivable or any Related Security) or abandoning or terminating any
right or franchise if such (x) abandonment, disposition or termination does not
violate any other provision of this Agreement and (y) all such abandonments,
dispositions and terminations do not in the aggregate have a Material Adverse
Effect.

        (d)     Audits. Such Loan Party will furnish to the Agent from time to
time such information with respect to it and the Receivables as the Agent may
reasonably request. Such Loan Party will, from time to time during regular
business hours as requested by the Agent upon reasonable notice and at the sole
cost of such Loan Party, permit the Agent, or its agents or representatives (and
shall cause each Originator to permit the Agent or its agents or
representatives): (i) to examine and make copies of and abstracts from all
Records in the possession or under the control of such Person relating to the
Collateral, including, without limitation, the related Contracts, and (ii) to
visit the offices and properties of such Person for the purpose of examining
such materials described in clause (i) above, and to discuss matters relating to
such Person's financial condition or the Collateral or any Person's performance
under any of the Transaction Documents or any Person's performance under the
Contracts and, in each case, with any of the officers or employees of Borrower
or the Servicer having knowledge of such matters (each of the foregoing
examinations and visits, a "Review"); provided, however, that, so long as no
Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing, (A) excluding the first
Review after the Closing Date, the Loan Parties shall only be responsible for
the costs and expenses of one (1) Review in any one calendar year, and (B) the
Agent will not request more than two (2) Reviews in any one calendar year;
provided, further, however, that the Loan Parties shall also be responsible for
the costs and expenses of one (1) Review to occur within the first ninety (90)
days after the Closing Date, which Review shall not be considered one of the two
(2) Reviews that may be requested by the Agent under subclause (B) above for
calendar year 2003.

        (e)     Keeping and Marking of Records and Books.

                (i)     The Servicer will (and will cause each Originator to)
        maintain and implement administrative and operating procedures
        (including, without limitation, an ability to recreate records
        evidencing Receivables in the event of the destruction of the originals
        thereof), and keep and maintain all documents, books, records and other
        information reasonably necessary or advisable for the collection of all
        Receivables (including, without limitation, records adequate to permit
        the immediate identification of each new Receivable and all Collections
        of and adjustments to each existing Receivable). The Servicer will (and
        will cause each Originator to) give the Agent notice of any material
        change in the administrative and operating procedures referred to in the
        previous sentence.

                (ii)    Such Loan Party will (and will cause each Originator
        to): (A) on or prior to the date hereof, mark its master data processing
        records and other books and records relating to the Loans with a legend,
        acceptable to the Agent, describing the Agent's security interest in the
        Collateral and (B) upon the request of the Agent, after the occurrence
        of an Amortization Event: (1) mark each Contract with a legend
        describing the Agent's security interest and (2) deliver to the Agent
        all Contracts (including, without limitation, all multiple originals of
        any such Contract constituting an instrument, a certificated security or
        chattel paper) relating to the Receivables.

                                       18

        (f)     Compliance with Contracts and Credit and Collection Policy. Such
Loan Party will (and will cause each Originator to) timely and fully (i) perform
and comply with all provisions, covenants and other promises required to be
observed by it under the Contracts related to the Receivables, and (ii) comply
in all respects with the Credit and Collection Policy in regard to each
Receivable and the related Contract, except to the extent that any failure to so
perform or comply could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

        (g)     Performance and Enforcement of Receivables Sale Agreement.
Borrower (i) will, and will require each Originator to, perform each of their
respective obligations and undertakings under and pursuant to the Receivables
Sale Agreement, (ii) will purchase Receivables thereunder in strict compliance
with the terms thereof and (iii) will vigorously enforce the rights and remedies
accorded to Borrower under the Receivables Sale Agreement. Borrower will take
all actions to perfect and enforce its rights and interests (and the rights and
interests of the Agent and the Lenders as assignees of Borrower) under the
Receivables Sale Agreement as the Agent may from time to time reasonably
request, including, without limitation, making claims to which it may be
entitled under any indemnity, reimbursement or similar provision contained in
the Receivables Sale Agreement.

        (h)     Ownership. Borrower will (or will cause each Originator to) take
all necessary action to (i) vest legal and equitable title to the Collateral
purchased under the Receivables Sale Agreement irrevocably in Borrower, free and
clear of any Adverse Claims (other than Adverse Claims in favor of the Agent,
for the benefit of the Secured Parties) including, without limitation, the
filing of all financing statements or other similar instruments or documents
necessary under the UCC (or any comparable law) of all appropriate jurisdictions
to perfect Borrower's interest in such Collateral and such other action to
perfect, protect or more fully evidence the interest of Borrower therein as the
Agent may reasonably request), and (ii) establish and maintain, in favor of the
Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a valid and perfected first
priority security interest in all Collateral, free and clear of any Adverse
Claims, including, without limitation, the filing of all financing statements or
other similar instruments or documents necessary under the UCC (or any
comparable law) of all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect the Agent's (for the
benefit of the Secured Parties) security interest in the Collateral and such
other action to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the interest of the
Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties as the Agent may reasonably
request.

        (i)     Lenders' Reliance. Borrower acknowledges that the Lenders are
entering into the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in reliance upon
Borrower's identity as a legal entity that is separate from each Originator.
Therefore, from and after the date of execution and delivery of this Agreement,
Borrower shall take all reasonable steps, including, without limitation, all
steps that the Agent or any Lender may from time to time reasonably request, to
maintain Borrower's identity as a separate legal entity and to make it manifest
to third parties that Borrower is an entity with assets and liabilities distinct
from those of each Originator and any Affiliates thereof (other than Borrower)
and not just a division of any Originator or any such Affiliate. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing and in addition to the other covenants
set forth herein, Borrower will:

                (i)     conduct its own business in its own name and require
        that all full-time employees of Borrower, if any, identify themselves as
        such and not as employees of any

                                       19

<PAGE>

        Originator (including, without limitation, by means of providing
        appropriate employees with business or identification cards identifying
        such employees as Borrower's employees);

                (ii)    compensate all employees, consultants and agents
        directly, from Borrower's own funds, for services provided to Borrower
        by such employees, consultants and agents and, to the extent any
        employee, consultant or agent of Borrower is also an employee,
        consultant or agent of any Originator or any Affiliate thereof, allocate
        the compensation of such employee, consultant or agent between Borrower
        and such Originator or such Affiliate, as applicable, on a basis that
        reflects the services rendered to Borrower and such Originator or such
        Affiliate, as applicable;

                (iii)   clearly identify its offices (by signage or otherwise)
        as its offices and, if such office is located in the offices of any
        Originator, Borrower shall lease such office at a fair market rent;

                (iv)    have a separate telephone number, which will be answered
        only in its name and separate stationery and checks in its own name;

                (v)     conduct all transactions with each Originator and the
        Servicer (including, without limitation, any delegation of its
        obligations hereunder as Servicer) strictly on an arm's-length basis,
        allocate all overhead expenses (including, without limitation, telephone
        and other utility charges) for items shared between Borrower and such
        Originator on the basis of actual use to the extent practicable and, to
        the extent such allocation is not practicable, on a basis reasonably
        related to actual use;

                (vi)    at all times have a Board of Directors consisting of
        three members, at least one member of which is an Independent Director;

                (vii)   observe all corporate formalities as a distinct entity,
        and ensure that all corporate actions relating to (A) the selection,
        maintenance or replacement of the Independent Director, (B) the
        dissolution or liquidation of Borrower or (C) the initiation of,
        participation in, acquiescence in or consent to any bankruptcy,
        insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding involving Borrower, are
        duly authorized by unanimous vote of its Board of Directors (including
        the Independent Director);

                (viii)  maintain Borrower's books and records separate from
        those of each Originator and any Affiliate thereof and otherwise readily
        identifiable as its own assets rather than assets of any Originator or
        any Affiliate thereof;

                (ix)    prepare its financial statements separately from those
        of each Originator and insure that any consolidated financial statements
        of any Originator or any Affiliate thereof that include Borrower and
        that are filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other
        governmental agency have notes clearly stating that Borrower is a
        separate corporate entity and that its assets will be available first
        and foremost to satisfy the claims of the creditors of Borrower;

                                       20

<PAGE>

                (x)     except as herein specifically otherwise provided,
        maintain the funds or other assets of Borrower separate from, and not
        commingled with, those of any Originator or any Affiliate thereof and
        only maintain bank accounts or other depository accounts to which
        Borrower alone is the account party, into which Borrower alone makes
        deposits and from which Borrower alone (or the Agent hereunder) has the
        power to make withdrawals;

                (xi)    pay all of Borrower's operating expenses from Borrower's
        own assets (except for certain payments by any Originator or other
        Persons pursuant to allocation arrangements that comply with the
        requirements of this Section 7.1(i));

                (xii)   operate its business and activities such that: it does
        not engage in any business or activity of any kind, or enter into any
        transaction or indenture, mortgage, instrument, agreement, contract,
        lease or other undertaking, other than the transactions contemplated and
        authorized by this Agreement and the Receivables Sale Agreement; and
        does not create, incur, guarantee, assume or suffer to exist any
        indebtedness or other liabilities, whether direct or contingent, other
        than (A) as a result of the endorsement of negotiable instruments for
        deposit or collection or similar transactions in the ordinary course of
        business, (B) the incurrence of obligations under this Agreement, (C)
        the incurrence of obligations, as expressly contemplated in the
        Receivables Sale Agreement, to make payment to the applicable Originator
        thereunder for the purchase of Receivables from such Originator under
        the Receivables Sale Agreement, and (D) the incurrence of operating
        expenses in the ordinary course of business of the type otherwise
        contemplated by this Agreement;

                (xiii)  maintain its corporate charter in conformity with this
        Agreement, such that it does not amend, restate, supplement or otherwise
        modify its Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws in any respect that
        would impair its ability to comply with the terms or provisions of any
        of the Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, Section
        7.1(i) of this Agreement;

                (xiv)   maintain the effectiveness of, and continue to perform
        under the Receivables Sale Agreement and the Performance Undertaking,
        such that it does not amend, restate, supplement, cancel, terminate or
        otherwise modify the Receivables Sale Agreement or the Performance
        Undertaking, or give any consent, waiver, directive or approval
        thereunder or waive any default, action, omission or breach under the
        Receivables Sale Agreement or the Performance Undertaking or otherwise
        grant any indulgence thereunder, without (in each case) the prior
        written consent of the Agent;

                (xv)    maintain its corporate separateness such that it does
        not merge or consolidate with or into, or convey, transfer, lease or
        otherwise dispose of (whether in one transaction or in a series of
        transactions, and except as otherwise contemplated herein) all or
        substantially all of its assets (whether now owned or hereafter
        acquired) to, or acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, any
        Person, nor at any time create, have, acquire, maintain or hold any
        interest in any Subsidiary.

                                       21

<PAGE>

                (xvi)   maintain at all times the Required Capital Amount and
        refrain from making any dividend, distribution, redemption of capital
        stock or payment of any subordinated indebtedness which would cause the
        Required Capital Amount to cease to be so maintained; and

                (xvii)  take such other actions as are necessary on its part to
        ensure that the facts and assumptions set forth in the opinion issued by
        Hunton & Williams, as counsel for Borrower, in connection with the
        closing or initial Advance under this Agreement and relating to
        substantive consolidation issues, and in the certificates accompanying
        such opinion, remain true and correct in all material respects at all
        times.

        (j)     Collections.

                (i)     Such Loan Party will cause (A) all proceeds from all
        Lock-Boxes to be directly deposited by a Collection Bank into a
        Collection Account and (B) each Lock-Box and Collection Account to be
        subject at all times to a Collection Account Agreement that is in full
        force and effect. In the event any payments relating to the Collateral
        are remitted directly to Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower, Borrower
        will remit (or will cause all such payments to be remitted) directly to
        a Collection Bank and deposited into a Collection Account within two (2)
        Business Days following receipt thereof, and, at all times prior to such
        remittance, Borrower will itself hold or, if applicable, will cause such
        payments to be held in trust for the exclusive benefit of the Agent and
        the Lenders. Borrower will maintain exclusive ownership, dominion and
        control (subject to the terms of this Agreement) of each Lock-Box and
        Collection Account and shall not grant the right to take dominion and
        control of any Lock-Box or Collection Account at a future time or upon
        the occurrence of a future event to any Person, except to the Agent as
        contemplated by this Agreement.

                (ii)    Borrower, or Servicer on behalf of Borrower, shall cause
        evidence to be delivered to Agent showing that each Lock-Box and each
        Collection Account is maintained in the name of Borrower.

        (k)     Taxes. Such Loan Party will pay, and will cause each Subsidiary
to pay, before the same become delinquent, all taxes, assessments and
governmental charges imposed upon it or any of its properties, except where the
same may be contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, or where any
failure to so pay could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect, and each such Loan Party will maintain, and will cause each Subsidiary
to maintain, in accordance with GAAP, appropriate reserves for the accrual of
the same. Borrower will pay when due any taxes payable in connection with the
Receivables, exclusive of taxes on or measured by income or gross receipts of
the Agent or any Lender.

        (l)     Payment to Applicable Originator. With respect to any Receivable
purchased by Borrower from any Originator, such sale shall be effected under,
and in strict compliance with the terms of, the Receivables Sale Agreement,
including, without limitation, the terms relating to the amount and timing of
payments to be made to such Originator in respect of the purchase price for such
Receivable.

        (b)     Change in Payment Instructions to Obligors. Except as may be
required by the Agent pursuant to Section 8.2(b), such Loan Party will not add

Collection Account, unless the Agent shall have received, at least ten (10) days
before the proposed effective date therefor, (i) written notice of such
addition, termination or change and (ii) with respect to the addition of a
Collection Bank or a Collection Account or Lock-Box, an executed Collection

(other than, in each case, the creation of a security interest therein in favor
of the Agent as provided for herein), and Borrower will defend the right, title
and interest of the Secured Parties in, to and under any of the foregoing
property, against all claims of third parties claiming through or under Borrower
or any Originator. Borrower will not create or suffer to exist any mortgage,
pledge, security interest, encumbrance, lien, charge or other similar
arrangement on any of its assets.

                                       23

or otherwise prohibiting or restricting any transaction contemplated hereby or
by the other Transaction Documents.

        (j)     Intercreditor Agreement. It will take no action in violation of

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                          ADMINISTRATION AND COLLECTION

        SECTION 8.1     DESIGNATION OF SERVICER.

        (a)     The servicing, administration and collection of the Receivables
shall be conducted by such Person (the "Servicer") so designated from time to
time in accordance with this Section 8.1. A.T. Massey is hereby designated as,
and hereby agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, the Servicer
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Agent may at any time after the
occurrence of an Amortization Event designate as Servicer any Person to succeed
A.T. Massey or any successor Servicer provided that the Rating Agency Condition
is satisfied.

        (b)     A.T. Massey may delegate, and A.T. Massey hereby advises the
Lenders and the Agent that it has delegated, to the Originators, as
sub-servicers of the Servicer, certain of its duties and responsibilities as
Servicer hereunder in respect of the Receivables originated by such Originator.
Without the prior written consent of the Agent and the Required Liquidity Banks,

                                       24

<PAGE>

A.T. Massey shall not be permitted to delegate any of its duties or
responsibilities as Servicer to any Person other than (i) Borrower, (ii) the
Originators, and (iii) with respect to certain Defaulted Receivables, outside
collection agencies in accordance with its customary practices. Neither Borrower
nor any Originator shall be permitted to further delegate to any other Person
any of the duties or responsibilities of the Servicer delegated to it by A.T.
Massey. If at any time the Agent shall designate as Servicer any Person other
than A.T. Massey, all duties and responsibilities theretofore delegated by A.T.
Massey to Borrower or the Originators may, at the discretion of the Agent, be
terminated forthwith on notice given by the Agent to A.T. Massey and to Borrower
and the Originators.

        (c)     Notwithstanding the foregoing subsection (b): (i) A.T. Massey
shall be and remain primarily liable to the Agent and the Lenders for the full
and prompt performance of all duties and responsibilities of the Servicer
hereunder and (ii) the Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to deal
exclusively with A.T. Massey in matters relating to the discharge by the
Servicer of its duties and responsibilities hereunder. The Agent and the Lenders
shall not be required to give notice, demand or other communication to any
Person other than A.T. Massey in order for communication to the Servicer and its
sub-servicer or other delegate with respect thereto to be accomplished. A.T.
Massey, at all times that it is the Servicer, shall be responsible for providing
any sub-servicer or other delegate of the Servicer with any notice given to the
Servicer under this Agreement.

        SECTION 8.2     DUTIES OF SERVICER.

        (a)     The Servicer shall take or cause to be taken all such actions as
may be necessary or advisable to collect each Receivable from time to time, all
in accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, with reasonable care
and diligence, and in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy.

        (b)     The Servicer will instruct all Obligors to pay all Collections
directly to a Lock-Box or Collection Account. The Servicer shall effect a
Collection Account Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit VI with each
bank party to a Collection Account at any time. In the case of any remittances
received in any Lock-Box or Collection Account that shall have been identified,
to the satisfaction of the Servicer, to not constitute Collections or other
proceeds of the Receivables or the Related Security, the Servicer shall promptly
remit such items to the Person identified to it as being the owner of such
remittances. From and after the date the Agent delivers to any Collection Bank a
Collection Notice pursuant to Section 8.3, the Agent may request that the
Servicer, and the Servicer thereupon promptly shall instruct all Obligors with
respect to the Receivables, to remit all payments thereon to a new depositary
account specified by the Agent and, at all times thereafter, Borrower and the
Servicer shall not deposit or otherwise credit, and shall not permit any other
Person to deposit or otherwise credit to such new depositary account any cash or
payment item other than Collections.

        (c)     The Servicer shall administer the Collections in accordance with
the procedures described herein and in Article II. The Servicer shall set aside
and hold in trust for the account of Borrower and the Lenders their respective
shares of the Collections in accordance with Article II. The Servicer shall,
upon the request of the Agent, segregate, in a manner acceptable to the Agent,
all cash, checks and other instruments received by it from time to time
constituting

                                       25

<PAGE>

Collections from the general funds of the Servicer or Borrower prior to the
remittance thereof in accordance with Article II. If the Servicer shall be
required to segregate Collections pursuant to the preceding sentence, the
Servicer shall segregate and deposit with a bank designated by the Agent such
allocable share of Collections of Receivables set aside for the Lenders on the
first Business Day following receipt by the Servicer of such Collections, duly
endorsed or with duly executed instruments of transfer.

        (d)     The Servicer may, in accordance with the Credit and Collection
Policy, extend the maturity of any Receivable or adjust the Outstanding Balance
of any Receivable as the Servicer determines to be appropriate to maximize
Collections thereof; provided, however, that such extension or adjustment shall
not alter the status of such Receivable as a Delinquent Receivable or Defaulted
Receivable or limit the rights of the Agent or the Lenders under this Agreement.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Agent shall at
all times after the occurrence of an Amortization Event have the absolute and
unlimited right to direct the Servicer to commence or settle any legal action
with respect to any Receivable or to foreclose upon or repossess any Related
Security.

        (e)     The Servicer shall hold in trust for Borrower and the Lenders
all Records that (i) evidence or relate to the Receivables, the related
Contracts and Related Security or (ii) are otherwise necessary or desirable to
collect the Receivables and shall, as soon as practicable upon demand of the
Agent, deliver or make available to the Agent all such Records, at a place
selected by the Agent. The Servicer shall, as soon as practicable following
receipt thereof turn over to Borrower any cash collections or other cash
proceeds in accordance with Article II. The Servicer shall, from time to time at
the request of any Lender, furnish to the Lenders (promptly after any such
request) a calculation of the amounts set aside for the Lenders pursuant to
Article II.

        (f)     Any payment by an Obligor in respect of any indebtedness owed by
it to Originator or Borrower shall, except as otherwise specified by such
Obligor or otherwise required by contract or law and unless otherwise instructed
by the Agent, be applied as a Collection of any Receivable of such Obligor
(starting with the oldest such Receivable) to the extent of any amounts then due
and payable thereunder before being applied to any other receivable or other
obligation of such Obligor.

        SECTION 8.3     COLLECTION NOTICES.

        The Agent is authorized at any time to date and to deliver to the
Collection Banks the Collection Notices. Borrower hereby transfers to the Agent
for the benefit of the Lenders, effective when the Agent delivers such notice,
the exclusive ownership and control of each Lock-Box and the Collection
Accounts. In case any authorized signatory of Borrower whose signature appears
on a Collection Account Agreement shall cease to have such authority before the
delivery of such notice, such Collection Notice shall nevertheless be valid as
if such authority had remained in force. Borrower hereby authorizes the Agent,
and agrees that the Agent shall be entitled (a) at any time after delivery of
the Collection Notices, to endorse Borrower's name on checks and other
instruments representing Collections, (b) at any time after the occurrence of an
Amortization Event, to enforce the Receivables, the related Contracts and the
Related Security, and (c) at any time after the occurrence of an Amortization
Event, to take such action as shall be

                                       26

<PAGE>

necessary or desirable to cause all cash, checks and other instruments
constituting Collections of Receivables to come into the possession of the Agent
rather than Borrower.

        SECTION 8.4     RESPONSIBILITIES OF BORROWER.

        Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the exercise by the
Agent and the Lenders of their rights hereunder shall not release the Servicer,
any Originator or Borrower from any of their duties or obligations with respect
to any Receivables or under the related Contracts. The Lenders shall have no
obligation or liability with respect to any Receivables or related Contracts,
nor shall any of them be obligated to perform the obligations of Borrower.

        SECTION 8.5     MONTHLY REPORTS.

        The Servicer shall prepare and forward to the Agent (a) on each Monthly
Reporting Date, a Monthly Report and an electronic file of the data contained
therein and (b) at such times as the Agent shall request, (i) a listing by
Obligor of all Receivables together with an aging of such Receivables and (ii)
other interim reporting as may from time to time be requested by the Agent.

        SECTION 8.6     SERVICING FEE.

        As compensation for the Servicer's servicing activities on their behalf,
the Lenders hereby agree to pay the Servicer the Servicing Fee, which fee shall
be paid in arrears on each Settlement Date.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                               AMORTIZATION EVENTS

        (b)     Any representation or warranty made by Performance Guarantor or
any Loan Party in any Transaction Document to which it is a party or in any
other document delivered pursuant thereto shall prove to have been incorrect
when made or deemed made.

        (c)     Any Loan Party shall fail to perform or observe any covenant
contained in Section 7.2 or 8.5 when due.

        (d)     Any Loan Party or Performance Guarantor shall fail to perform or
observe any other covenant or agreement under any Transaction Documents and such
failure shall continue for fifteen (15) consecutive calendar days after the

                                       27

failure and (ii) written notice thereof has been given to such Person by the
Agent or any Lender.

        (e)     Failure of Borrower to pay any Indebtedness (other than the
Obligations) when due or the default by Borrower in the performance of any term,
provision or condition contained in any agreement under which any such
Indebtedness was created or is governed, the effect of which is to cause, or to
permit the holder or holders of such Indebtedness to cause, such Indebtedness to
become due prior to its stated maturity; or any such Indebtedness of Borrower
shall be declared to be due and payable or required to be prepaid (other than by
a regularly scheduled payment) prior to the date of maturity thereof.

        (f)     Failure of Performance Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries
other than Borrower to pay Indebtedness in excess of $20,000,000 in aggregate
principal amount (hereinafter, "Material Indebtedness") when due; or the default
by Performance Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries other than Borrower in the
performance of any term, provision or condition contained in any agreement under
which any Material Indebtedness was created or is governed, the effect of which
is to cause, or to permit the holder or holders of such Material Indebtedness to
cause, such Material Indebtedness to become due prior to its stated maturity; or
any Material Indebtedness of Performance Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries
other than Borrower shall be declared to be due and payable or required to be
prepaid (other than by a regularly scheduled payment) prior to the date of
maturity thereof.

        (g)     An Event of Bankruptcy shall occur with respect to Performance
Guarantor, any Loan Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries.

        (h)     As at the end of any Calculation Period:

        (k)     The "Termination Date" under and as defined in the Receivables
Sale Agreement shall occur under the Receivables Sale Agreement or any
Originator shall for any reason cease to transfer, or cease to have the legal
capacity to transfer, or otherwise be incapable of transferring Receivables to

<PAGE>

        (l)     This Agreement shall terminate in whole or in part (except in
accordance with its terms), or shall cease to be effective or to be the legally
valid, binding and enforceable obligation of Borrower, or any Obligor shall
directly or indirectly contest in any manner such effectiveness, validity,
binding nature or enforceability, or the Agent for the benefit of the Lenders
shall cease to have a valid and perfected first priority security interest in
the Collateral.

                (i)     fail to pay when due an amount or amounts aggregating in
        excess of $15,000,000 which it shall have become liable to pay to the
        PBGC or to a Plan under Title IV of ERISA except where the failure to so
        pay would not have a Material Adverse Effect; or notice of intent to
        terminate a Plan or Plans which would have a Material Adverse Effect
        (collectively, a "Material Plan") shall be filed under Title IV of ERISA
        by any member of the Controlled Group, any plan administrator or any
        combination of the foregoing; or the PBGC shall institute proceedings

                                       29

<PAGE>

        Title IV of ERISA, and it is reasonably likely that as a result of such
        reorganization or termination the aggregate annual contributions of the
        Controlled Group to all Multiemployer Plans that are then in
        reorganization or being terminated have been or will be increased over
        the amounts contributed to such Multiemployer Plans for the plan year of
        such Multiemployer Plan immediately preceding the plan year in which the
        reorganization or termination occurs by an amount exceeding $15,000,000.

        (q)     Any event shall occur which (i) materially and adversely impairs
the ability of the Originators to originate Receivables of a credit quality that
is at least equal to the credit quality of the Receivables sold or contributed
to Borrower on the date of this Agreement or (ii) has, or could be reasonably
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

any financial covenant incorporated by reference pursuant to Section 6A of the
Performance Undertaking.

        (s)     At any time the sum of (i) Availability and (ii) Excess
Availability shall be less than $15 million.

shall, take any of the following actions: (a) replace the Person then acting as
Servicer if the Agent has not already done so, (b) declare the Amortization Date
to have occurred, whereupon the Aggregate Commitment shall immediately terminate

further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each
Loan Party; provided, however, that upon the occurrence of an Event of
Bankruptcy with respect to any Loan Party, the Amortization Date shall
automatically occur, without demand, protest or any notice of any kind, all of
which are hereby expressly waived by each Loan Party, (c) deliver the Collection
Notices to the Collection Banks, (d) exercise all rights and remedies of a
secured party upon default under the UCC and other applicable laws, and (e)
notify Obligors of the Agent's security interest in the Receivables and other

operation of law, at equity or otherwise, all of which are hereby expressly
preserved, including, without limitation, all rights and remedies provided under
the UCC, all of which rights shall be cumulative.

                                 INDEMNIFICATION

        SECTION 10.1    INDEMNITIES BY THE LOAN PARTIES.

        (a)     Without limiting any other rights that the Agent or any Lender
may have hereunder or under applicable law, (x) Borrower hereby agrees to
indemnify (and pay upon demand to) the Agent, Blue Ridge, each of the Liquidity
Banks and each of the respective assigns, officers, directors, agents and
employees of the foregoing (each, an "Indemnified Party")

                                       30

<PAGE>

from and against any and all damages, losses, claims, Taxes, liabilities, costs,
expenses and for all other amounts payable, including reasonable attorneys' fees
(which attorneys may be employees of the Agent or such Lender) and disbursements
(all of the foregoing being collectively referred to as "Indemnified Amounts")
awarded against or incurred by any of them arising out of or as a result of this
Agreement or the acquisition, either directly or indirectly, by a Lender of an
interest in the Receivables, and (y) the Servicer hereby agrees to indemnify
(and pay upon demand to) each Indemnified Party for Indemnified Amounts awarded
against or incurred by any of them arising out of the Servicer's activities as
Servicer hereunder excluding, however, in all of the foregoing instances under
the preceding clauses (x) and (y):

                (i)     Indemnified Amounts to the extent a final judgment of a
        court of competent jurisdiction holds that such Indemnified Amounts
        resulted from gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the
        Indemnified Party seeking indemnification;

                (ii)    Indemnified Amounts to the extent the same includes
        losses in respect of Receivables that are uncollectible on account of
        the insolvency, bankruptcy or lack of creditworthiness of the related
        Obligor; or

                (iii)   (1) taxes imposed on its income, and franchise taxes or
        excises taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which
        such Indemnified Party or Funding Source is organized or any political
        subdivision thereof or in which its principal office is located, (2)
        taxes imposed on its income, and franchise taxes or excise taxes imposed
        on it, by the jurisdiction of such Indemnified Party's or Funding
        Source's applicable lending office or any political subdivision thereof,
        (3) taxes imposed upon or measured by the overall net income of such
        Indemnified Party or Funding Source by the United States of America or
        any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, and
        (4) United States income taxes imposed under any law (including without
        limitation any statute, treaty, ruling, determination or regulation) in
        effect on the date hereof in the case of any Indemnified Party or
        Funding Source (as the case may be) and on the effective date of the
        assignment pursuant to which it became a Indemnified Party or Funding
        Source; provided, however, that any taxes that are imposed on an
        Indemnified Party because of the acquisition by the Lenders of Loans is
        not treated for income tax purposes as a loan or loans by the Lenders to
        Borrower secured by the Receivables, the Related Security, the
        Collections Accounts and the Collections are not covered by the
        exclusion to indemnification set forth in this subclause (iii);

provided, however, that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the
liability of any Loan Party or limit the recourse of the Lenders to any Loan
Party for amounts otherwise specifically provided to be paid by such Loan Party
under the terms of this Agreement.

        (b)     Without limiting the generality of the foregoing
indemnification, Borrower shall indemnify the Agent and the Lenders for
Indemnified Amounts (including, without limitation, losses in respect of
uncollectible receivables, regardless of whether reimbursement therefor would
constitute recourse to Borrower or the Servicer) relating to or resulting from:

        (c)     Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Borrower
shall not be required to indemnify or pay any additional amounts to any
Indemnified Party or Funding Source pursuant to this Section 10.1 or Section
10.2 with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States if the obligation to
withhold with respect to such Taxes results from, or would not have occurred but
for, the failure of any Indemnified Party or Funding Source to deliver to
Borrower (i) a complete and properly executed Internal Revenue Service Form
W-8BEN or W-8ECI, as appropriate, or any successor form prescribed by the
Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Indemnified Party or Funding
Source is entitled to benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United
States is a party which reduces to zero the rate of withholding tax on payments
due under this Agreement or certifying that the income receivable pursuant to
this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents is effectively
connected with the conduct of trade or business in the United States, (ii) a
complete and properly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, or any
successor form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, (iii) any other
complete and properly executed form or certificate required by any taxing
authority (including any certificate required by Sections 871(h) and 881(c) of
the Tax Code), certifying that such Indemnified Party or Funding Source is
entitled to a complete exemption from tax on payments pursuant to this Agreement
or any of the other Transaction Documents, or (iv) a complete and properly
executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY and any related documents required
in conjunction with such W-8IMY (unless such failure is due to a change in
treaty, law or regulation occurring subsequent to the date on which a form
originally was required to be provided). The Indemnified Party or Funding Source
shall not have failed to comply with the provisions of this Section 10.1(c) if
it is legally unable to deliver the forms described herein.

                                       33

<PAGE>

        (d)     If any Indemnified Party or Funding Source actually receives a
refund or actually realizes the benefit of a credit or reduction in respect of
any Taxes for which it has received any Indemnified Amounts or payments pursuant
to Section 10.2 with respect to Taxes, such Indemnified Party or Funding Source
shall within 45 days from the date of such receipt or realization pay over the
amount of such refund, credit or reduction to the Borrower (but only to the
extent of the Indemnified Amounts or payments made pursuant to Section 10.2 with
respect to Taxes), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of such
Indemnified Party or Funding Source and without interest (other than interest
paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund, credit
or reduction); provided, however, that any failure to make, or delay in making,
any such payment shall not give rise to any liability of such Indemnified Party
or Funding Source in addition to the obligation hereunder to make such payment.

        (e)     References in this Section 10 to any Indemnified Party or the
Funding Source shall also refer to and include any assignee, participant,
transferee, successor or designee of all or a portion of such Indemnified
Party's or the Funding Source's rights and obligations under this Agreement.
Therefore, each assignee, participant, transferee, successor or designee shall
be required to deliver or cause to be delivered to the Borrower properly
completed and duly executed documents as provided in Section 10.1(c).

        SECTION 10.2    INCREASED COST AND REDUCED RETURN.

        If after the date hereof, any Funding Source shall be charged any fee,
expense or increased cost on account of the adoption of any applicable law, rule
or regulation (including any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding
capital adequacy) or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or
administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable
agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or any
accounting board or authority (whether or not part of government) which is
responsible for the establishment or interpretation of national or international
accounting principles, in each case whether foreign or domestic or compliance
with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any
such authority, central bank or comparable agency (a "Regulatory Change"): (a)
that subjects any Funding Source to any charge or withholding on or with respect
to any Funding Agreement or a Funding Source's obligations under a Funding
Agreement, or on or with respect to the Receivables, or changes the basis of
taxation of payments to any Funding Source of any amounts payable under any
Funding Agreement (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net
income of a Funding Source or taxes excluded by Section 10.1) or (b) that
imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, insurance charge,
special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for
the account of a Funding Source, or credit extended by a Funding Source pursuant
to a Funding Agreement or (c) that imposes any other condition the result of
which is to increase the cost to a Funding Source of performing its obligations
under a Funding Agreement, or to reduce the rate of return on a Funding Source's
capital as a consequence of its obligations under a Funding Agreement, or to
reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by a Funding Source under a
Funding Agreement or to require any payment calculated by reference to the
amount of interests or loans held or interest received by it, then, upon receipt
of a written demand (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement of the
basis for such demand and the amounts owed) by the Agent, Borrower shall pay to
the Agent, for the benefit of the relevant Funding Source, such amounts charged
to such Funding Source or such amounts to otherwise compensate such Funding
Source for such

                                       34

<PAGE>

increased cost or such reduction. For avoidance of doubt, any interpretation of
Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51 by the Financial Accounting Standards Board
shall constitute an adoption, change, request or directive subject to this
Section 10.2.

        SECTION 10.3    OTHER COSTS AND EXPENSES.

        Borrower shall pay to the Agent and Blue Ridge, upon receipt of a
written demand (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement of the basis
for such demand and the amounts owed), all costs and out-of-pocket expenses in
connection with the preparation, execution, delivery and administration of this
Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby and the other documents to be
delivered hereunder, including without limitation, the cost of Blue Ridge's
auditors auditing the books, records and procedures of Borrower, reasonable fees
and out-of-pocket expenses of legal counsel for Blue Ridge and the Agent (which
such counsel may be employees of Blue Ridge or the Agent) with respect thereto
and with respect to advising Blue Ridge and the Agent as to their respective
rights and remedies under this Agreement. Borrower shall pay to the Agent on
demand any and all costs and expenses of the Agent and the Lenders, if any,
including reasonable counsel fees and expenses in connection with the
enforcement of this Agreement and the other documents delivered hereunder and in
connection with any restructuring or workout of this Agreement or such
documents, or the administration of this Agreement following an Amortization
Event. Borrower shall reimburse Blue Ridge on demand for all other costs and
expenses incurred by Blue Ridge ("Other Costs"), including, without limitation,
the cost of auditing Blue Ridge's books by certified public accountants, the
cost of rating the Commercial Paper by independent financial rating agencies,
and the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of counsel for Blue Ridge or
any counsel for any shareholder of Blue Ridge with respect to advising Blue
Ridge or such shareholder as to matters relating to Blue Ridge's operations.

        SECTION 10.4    ALLOCATIONS.

        Blue Ridge shall allocate the liability for Other Costs among Borrower
and other Persons with whom Blue Ridge has entered into agreements to purchase
interests in or finance receivables and other financial assets ("Other
Customers"). If any Other Costs are attributable to Borrower and not
attributable to any Other Customer, Borrower shall be solely liable for such
Other Costs. However, if Other Costs are attributable to Other Customers and not
attributable to Borrower, such Other Customer shall be solely liable for such
Other Costs. All allocations to be made pursuant to the foregoing provisions of
this Article X shall be made by Blue Ridge in its sole discretion and shall be
binding on Borrower and the Servicer.

                                   ARTICLE XI

                                    THE AGENT

        SECTION 11.1    AUTHORIZATION AND ACTION.

        Each Lender hereby designates and appoints Wachovia to act as its agent
under the Transaction Documents and under the Liquidity Agreement, and
authorizes the Agent to take such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise
such powers as are delegated to the Agent by

                                       35

<PAGE>

the terms of the Liquidity Agreement or the Transaction Documents, together with
such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Agent shall not have any
duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth in the Liquidity
Agreement or in any Transaction Document, or any fiduciary relationship with any
Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties,
obligations or liabilities on the part of the Agent shall be read into the
Liquidity Agreement or any Transaction Document or otherwise exist for the
Agent. In performing its functions and duties under the Liquidity Agreement and
the Transaction Documents, the Agent shall act solely as agent for the Lenders
and does not assume nor shall be deemed to have assumed any obligation or
relationship of trust or agency with or for any Loan Party or any of such Loan
Party's successors or assigns. The Agent shall not be required to take any
action that exposes the Agent to personal liability or that is contrary to the
Liquidity Agreement or any Transaction Document or applicable law. The
appointment and authority of the Agent hereunder shall terminate upon the
indefeasible payment in full of all Obligations. Each Lender hereby authorizes
the Agent to file each of the UCC financing statements and each Collection
Account Agreement on behalf of such Lender (the terms of which shall be binding
on such Lender).

        SECTION 11.2    DELEGATION OF DUTIES.

        The Agent may execute any of its duties under the Liquidity Agreement
and each Transaction Document by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and
shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such
duties. The Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of
any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

        SECTION 11.3    EXCULPATORY PROVISIONS.

        Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or
employees shall be (a) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be
taken by it or them under or in connection with the Liquidity Agreement or any
Transaction Document (except for its, their or such Person's own gross
negligence or willful misconduct), or (b) responsible in any manner to any of
the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by
any Loan Party contained in the Liquidity Agreement, any Transaction Document or
any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for
in, or received under or in connection with, any Transaction Document or for the
value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of
the Liquidity Agreement or any Transaction Document or any other document
furnished in connection therewith, or for any failure of any Loan Party to
perform its obligations under any Transaction Document, or for the satisfaction
of any condition specified in Article VI, or for the perfection, priority,
condition, value or sufficiency of any collateral pledged in connection
herewith. The Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain
or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements or
covenants contained in, or conditions of, any Transaction Document, or to
inspect the properties, books or records of the Loan Parties. The Agent shall
not be deemed to have knowledge of any Amortization Event or Unmatured
Amortization Event unless the Agent has received notice from a Loan Party or a
Lender.

                                       36

<PAGE>

        SECTION 11.4    RELIANCE BY AGENT.

        The Agent shall in all cases be entitled to rely, and shall be fully
protected in relying, upon any 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, without
limitation, counsel to Borrower), independent accountants and other experts
selected by the Agent. The Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in
failing or refusing to take any action under the Liquidity Agreement or any
Transaction Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of
Blue Ridge or the Required Liquidity Banks or all of the Lenders, as applicable,
as it deems appropriate and it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by
the Lenders, provided that unless and until the Agent shall have received such
advice, the Agent may take or refrain from taking any action, as the Agent shall
deem advisable and in the best interests of the Lenders. The Agent shall in all
cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, in accordance
with a request of Blue Ridge or the Required Liquidity Banks or all of the
Lenders, as applicable, and such request and any action taken or failure to act
pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders.

        SECTION 11.5    NON-RELIANCE ON AGENT AND OTHER LENDERS.

        Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agent, nor any of
its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates has
made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Agent
hereafter taken, including, without limitation, any review of the affairs of any
Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the
Agent. Each Lender represents and warrants to the Agent that it has and will,
independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender and based
on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own
appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property,
prospects, financial and other conditions and creditworthiness of Borrower and
made its own decision to enter into the Liquidity Agreement, the Transaction
Documents and all other documents related thereto.

        SECTION 11.6    REIMBURSEMENT AND INDEMNIFICATION.

        The Liquidity Banks agree to reimburse and indemnify the Agent and its
officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents ratably according to
their Pro Rata Shares, to the extent not paid or reimbursed by the Loan Parties
(a) for any amounts for which the Agent, acting in its capacity as Agent, is
entitled to reimbursement by the Loan Parties hereunder and (b) for any other
expenses incurred by the Agent, in its capacity as Agent and acting on behalf of
the Lenders, in connection with the administration and enforcement of the
Liquidity Agreement and the Transaction Documents.

        SECTION 11.7    AGENT IN ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY.

        The Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and
generally engage in any kind of business with Borrower or any Affiliate of
Borrower as though the Agent were not the Agent hereunder. With respect to the
making of Loans pursuant to this Agreement, the Agent shall have the same rights
and powers under the Liquidity Agreement and this Agreement in its individual
capacity as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were

                                       37

<PAGE>

not the Agent, and the terms "Liquidity Bank," "Lender," "Liquidity Banks" and
"Lenders" shall include the Agent in its individual capacity.

        SECTION 11.8    SUCCESSOR AGENT.

        The Agent, upon five (5) days' notice to the Loan Parties and the
Lenders, may voluntarily resign and may be removed at any time, with or without
cause, by the Required Liquidity Lenders; provided, however, that Wachovia shall
not voluntarily resign as the Agent so long as any of the Liquidity Commitments
remain in effect or Blue Ridge has any outstanding Loans. If the Agent (other
than Wachovia) shall voluntarily resign or be removed as Agent under this
Agreement, then the Required Liquidity Lenders during such five-day period shall
appoint, from among the remaining Liquidity Banks, a successor Agent, whereupon
such successor Agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Agent
and the term "Agent" shall mean such successor agent, effective upon its
appointment, and the former Agent's rights, powers and duties as Agent shall be
terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former
Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement. Upon resignation or replacement
of any Agent in accordance with this Section 11.8, the retiring Agent shall
execute such UCC-3 assignments and amendments, and assignments and amendments of
the Liquidity Agreement and the Transaction Documents, as may be necessary to
give effect to its replacement by a successor Agent. After any retiring Agent's
resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Article XI and Article X
shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it
while it was Agent under this Agreement.

                                   ARTICLE XII

                           ASSIGNMENTS; PARTICIPATIONS

        SECTION 12.1    ASSIGNMENTS.

        (a)     Each of the Agent, the Loan Parties and the Liquidity Banks
hereby agrees and consents to the complete or partial assignment by Blue Ridge
of all or any portion of its rights under, interest in, title to and obligations
under this Agreement to the Liquidity Banks pursuant to the Liquidity Agreement.

        (b)     Any Liquidity Bank may at any time and from time to time assign
to one or more Eligible Assignees (each, a "Purchasing Liquidity Bank") all or
any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to an
assignment agreement substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit VII hereto
(an "Assignment Agreement") executed by such Purchasing Liquidity Bank and such
selling Liquidity Bank; provided, however, that any assignment of a Liquidity
Bank's rights and obligations hereunder shall include a pro rata assignment of
its rights and obligations under the Liquidity Agreement. The consent of Blue
Ridge shall be required prior to the effectiveness of any such assignment. Each
assignee of a Liquidity Bank must (i) be an Eligible Assignee and (ii) agree to
deliver to the Agent, promptly following any request therefor by the Agent or
Blue Ridge, an enforceability opinion in form and substance satisfactory to the
Agent and Blue Ridge. Upon delivery of an executed Assignment Agreement to the
Agent, such selling Liquidity Bank shall be released from its obligations
hereunder and under the Liquidity Agreement to the extent of such assignment.
Thereafter the Purchasing Liquidity Bank

                                       38

<PAGE>

shall for all purposes be a Liquidity Bank party to this Agreement and the
Liquidity Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Liquidity
Bank hereunder and thereunder to the same extent as if it were an original party
hereto and thereto and no further consent or action by Borrower, the Lenders or
the Agent shall be required.

        (c)     Each of the Liquidity Banks agrees that in the event that it
shall suffer a Downgrading Event, such Downgraded Liquidity Bank shall, at the
request of Blue Ridge or the Agent, either (i) collateralize its Commitment and
its Liquidity Commitment in a manner acceptable to the Agent, or (ii) assign all
of its rights and obligations hereunder and under the Liquidity Agreement to an
Eligible Assignee nominated by the Agent or a Loan Party and acceptable to Blue
Ridge and willing to participate in this Agreement and the Liquidity Agreement
through the Liquidity Termination Date in the place of such Downgraded Liquidity
Bank; provided that the Downgraded Liquidity Bank receives payment in full,
pursuant to an Assignment Agreement, of an amount equal to such Liquidity Bank's
Pro Rata Share of the Obligations owing to the Liquidity Banks.

        (d)     No Loan Party may assign any of its rights or obligations under
this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Agent and each of the
Lenders and without satisfying the Rating Agency Condition.

        SECTION 12.2    PARTICIPATIONS.

        Any Liquidity Bank may, in the ordinary course of its business at any
time sell to one or more Persons (each, a "Participant") participating interests
in its Pro Rata Share of the Aggregate Commitment, its Loans, its Liquidity
Commitment or any other interest of such Liquidity Bank hereunder or under the
Liquidity Agreement. Notwithstanding any such sale by a Liquidity Bank of a
participating interest to a Participant, such Liquidity Bank's rights and
obligations under this Agreement and the Liquidity Agreement shall remain
unchanged, such Liquidity Bank shall remain solely responsible for the
performance of its obligations hereunder and under the Liquidity Agreement, and
the Loan Parties, Blue Ridge and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and
directly with such Liquidity Bank in connection with such Liquidity Bank's
rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Liquidity Agreement. Each
Liquidity Bank agrees that any agreement between such Liquidity Bank and any
such Participant in respect of such participating interest shall not restrict
such Liquidity Bank's right to agree to any amendment, supplement, waiver or
modification to this Agreement, except for any amendment, supplement, waiver or
modification described in Section 14.1(b)(i).

                                  ARTICLE XIII

                                SECURITY INTEREST

        SECTION 13.1    GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST.

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

        SECTION 14.1    WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS.

        (a)     No failure or delay on the part of the Agent or any Lender in
exercising any power, right or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a
waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power,
right or remedy preclude any other further exercise thereof or the exercise of
any other power, right or remedy. The rights and remedies herein provided shall
be cumulative and nonexclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law. Any
waiver of this Agreement shall be effective only in the specific instance and
for the specific purpose for which given.

        (b)     No provision of this Agreement may be amended, supplemented,
modified or waived except in writing in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 14.1(b). Blue Ridge, Borrower and the Agent, at the direction of the
Required Liquidity Banks, may enter into written modifications or waivers of any
provisions of this Agreement, provided, however, that no such modification or
waiver shall:

                (i)     without the consent of each affected Lender, (A) extend
        the Liquidity Termination Date or the date of any payment or deposit of
        Collections by Borrower or the Servicer, (B) reduce the rate or extend
        the time of payment of Interest or any CP Costs (or any component of
        Interest or CP Costs), reduce any fee payable to the Agent for the
        benefit of the Lenders, (C) except pursuant to Article XII hereof,
        change the amount of the principal of any Lender, any Liquidity Bank's
        Pro Rata Share or any Liquidity Bank's Commitment, (D) amend, modify or
        waive any provision of the definition of Required Liquidity Banks or
        this Section 14.1(b), (E) consent to or permit the assignment or
        transfer by Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this
        Agreement, (F) change the definition of "Eligible Receivable," "Loss
        Reserve," "Dilution Reserve," "Yield Reserve," "Servicing Reserve,"
        "Servicing Fee Rate," "Required Reserve" or "Required Reserve Factor
        Floor" or (G) amend or modify any defined term (or any defined term used
        directly or indirectly in such defined term) used in clauses (A) through
        (G) above in a manner that would circumvent the intention of the
        restrictions set forth in such clauses; or

                                       40

<PAGE>

                (ii)    without the written consent of the then Agent, amend,
        modify or waive any provision of this Agreement if the effect thereof is
        to affect the rights or duties of such Agent,

and any material amendment, waiver or other modification of this Agreement shall
require satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, (i) without the consent of the Liquidity Banks, but with the consent
of Borrower, the Agent may amend this Agreement solely to add additional Persons
as Liquidity Banks hereunder and (ii) the Agent, the Required Liquidity Banks
and Blue Ridge may enter into amendments to modify any of the terms or
provisions of Article XI, Article XII, Section 14.13 or any other provision of
this Agreement without the consent of Borrower. Any modification or waiver made
in accordance with this Section 14.1 shall apply to each of the Lenders equally
and shall be binding upon Borrower, the Lenders and the Agent.

        SECTION 14.2    NOTICES.

        Except as provided in this Section 14.2, all communications and notices
provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including bank wire, telecopy or
electronic facsimile transmission or similar writing) and shall be given to the
other parties hereto at their respective addresses or telecopy numbers set forth
on the signature pages hereof or at such other address or telecopy number as
such Person may hereafter specify for the purpose of notice to each of the other
parties hereto. Each such notice or other communication shall be effective (a)
if given by telecopy, upon the receipt thereof, (b) if given by mail, three (3)
Business Days after the time such communication is deposited in the mail with
first class postage prepaid or (c) if given by any other means, when received at
the address specified in this Section 14.2. Borrower hereby authorizes the Agent
to effect Advances and Interest Period and Interest Rate selections based on
telephonic notices made by any Person whom the Agent in good faith believes to
be acting on behalf of Borrower. Borrower agrees to deliver promptly to the
Agent a written confirmation of each telephonic notice signed by an authorized
officer of Borrower; provided, however, the absence of such confirmation shall
not affect the validity of such notice. If the written confirmation differs from
the action taken by the Agent, the records of the Agent shall govern absent
manifest error.

        SECTION 14.3    RATABLE PAYMENTS.

        If any Lender, whether by setoff or otherwise, has payment made to it
with respect to any portion of the Obligations owing to such Lender (other than
payments received pursuant to Section 10.2 or 10.3) in a greater proportion than
that received by any other Lender entitled to receive a ratable share of such
Obligations, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase for cash
without recourse or warranty a portion of such Obligations held by the other
Lenders so that after such purchase each Lender will hold its ratable proportion
of such Obligations; provided that if all or any portion of such excess amount
is thereafter recovered from such Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded and
the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without
interest.

        SECTION 14.4    PROTECTION OF AGENT'S SECURITY INTEREST.

        (a)     Borrower agrees that from time to time, at its expense, it will
promptly execute and deliver all instruments and documents, and take all
actions, that may be necessary or desirable, or that the Agent may request, to
perfect, protect or more fully evidence the Agent's security interest in the
Collateral, or to enable the Agent or the Lenders to exercise and enforce their
rights and remedies hereunder. At any time, the Agent may, or the Agent may
direct Borrower or the Servicer to, notify the Obligors of Receivables, at
Borrower's expense, of the ownership or security interests of the Lenders under
this Agreement and may also direct that payments of all amounts due or that
become due under any or all Receivables be made directly to the Agent or its
designee. Borrower or the Servicer (as applicable) shall, at any Lender's
request, withhold the identity of such Lender in any such notification.

        (b)     If any Loan Party fails to perform any of its obligations
hereunder, the Agent or any Lender may (but shall not be required to) perform,
or cause performance of, such obligations, and the Agent's or such Lender's
costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by Borrower
as provided in Section 10.3. (A) each of the Loan Parties hereby authorizes the
Agent to file financing statements and other filing or recording documents with
respect to the Receivables and Related Security (including any amendments
thereto, or continuation or termination statements thereof), without the
signature or other authorization of such Loan Party, in such form and in such
offices as the Agent reasonably determines appropriate to perfect or maintain
the perfection of the security interest of the Agent hereunder, (B) each of the
Loan Parties acknowledges and agrees that it is not authorized to, and will not,
file financing statements or other filing or recording documents with respect to
the Receivables or Related Security (including any amendments thereto, or
continuation or termination statements thereof), without the express prior
written approval by the Agent, consenting to the form and substance of such
filing or recording document, and (C) each of the Loan Parties approves,
authorizes and ratifies any filings or recordings made by or on behalf of the
Agent in connection with the perfection of the security interests in favor of
Borrower or the Agent.

        (c)     Borrower hereby authorizes the Agent to file all appropriate UCC
financing statements to protect, preserve and perfect the security interest of
the Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, granted hereunder by Borrower in
the Collateral.

        SECTION 14.5    CONFIDENTIALITY.

        (a)     Each Loan Party and each Lender shall maintain and shall cause
each of its employees and officers to maintain the confidentiality of this
Agreement and the other confidential or proprietary information with respect to
the Agent and Blue Ridge and their respective businesses obtained by it or them
in connection with the structuring, negotiating and execution of the
transactions contemplated herein, except that such Loan Party and such Lender
and its officers and employees may disclose such information to such Loan
Party's and such Lender's external accountants and attorneys and as required by
any applicable law or order of any judicial or administrative proceeding.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Loan Parties and their Affiliates, including
the Performance Guarantor, are permitted to file this Agreement, the

it (i) to the Agent, the Liquidity Banks or Blue Ridge by each other, (ii) by
the Agent or the Lenders to any prospective or actual assignee or participant of
any of them and (iii) by the Agent to any rating agency, Commercial Paper dealer
or provider of a surety, guaranty or credit or liquidity enhancement to Blue
Ridge or any entity organized for the purpose of purchasing, or making loans
secured by, financial assets for which Wachovia acts as the administrative agent
and to any officers, directors, employees, outside accountants and attorneys of
any of the foregoing, provided that each such Person is informed of the
confidential nature of such information. In addition, the Lenders and the Agent
may disclose any such nonpublic information pursuant to any law, rule,
regulation, direction, request or order of any judicial, administrative or
regulatory authority or proceedings (whether or not having the force or effect
of law).

        SECTION 14.6    BANKRUPTCY PETITION.

        (a)     Borrower, the Servicer, the Agent and each Liquidity Bank hereby
covenants and agrees that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after
the payment in full of all outstanding senior indebtedness of Blue Ridge, it
will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against,
Blue Ridge any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or
liquidation proceedings or other similar proceeding under the laws of the United
States or any state of the United States.

        (b)     Each Loan Party (other than Borrower) hereby covenants and
agrees that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in
full of all outstanding senior indebtedness of Blue Ridge, it will not institute
against, or join any other Person in instituting against, Borrower any
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings
or other similar proceeding under the laws of the United States or any state of
the United States.

        SECTION 14.7    LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.

        Except with respect to any claim arising out of the willful misconduct
or gross negligence of Blue Ridge, the Agent or any Liquidity Bank, no claim may
be made by any Loan Party or any other Person against Blue Ridge, the Agent or
any Liquidity Bank or their respective Affiliates, directors, officers,
employees, attorneys or agents for any special, indirect, consequential or
punitive damages in respect of any claim for breach of contract or any other
theory of liability arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection
therewith; and each Loan Party hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to sue
upon any claim for any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not
known or suspected to exist in its favor.

        Originator, and not by any other Person (in whole or in part),

        $2 million in aggregate Outstanding Balance of Eligible Receivables, at
        least ten (10) Business Days prior written notice, (B) in the case of
        any such decision affecting, based upon the preceding Monthly Report,
        more than $2 million and up to $10 million in aggregate Outstanding
        Balance of Eligible Receivables, at least thirty (30) days prior written
        notice and (C) in the case of any such decision affecting, based upon
        the preceding Monthly Report, more than $10 million in aggregate
        Outstanding Balance of Eligible Receivables, at least ninety (90) days
        prior written notice, that the Agent has determined that such Receivable
        or class of Receivables is not acceptable as an Eligible Receivable,
        including, without limitation, because such Receivable arises under a
        Contract that is not acceptable to the Agent,

                (xvi)   which is not subject to any dispute, counterclaim, right
        of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or any other defense (including
        defenses arising out of violations of usury laws) of the applicable
        Obligor against the applicable Originator or any other Adverse Claim,
        and the Obligor thereon holds no right as against such Originator to
        cause such Originator to repurchase the goods or merchandise the sale of
        which shall have given rise to such Receivable (except with respect to
        sale discounts effected pursuant to the Contract, or defective goods
        returned in accordance with the terms of the Contract); provided,
        however, that if such dispute, offset, counterclaim or defense affects
        only a portion of the Outstanding Balance of such Receivable, then such
        Receivable may be deemed an Eligible Receivable to the extent of the
        portion of such Outstanding Balance which is not so affected, and
        provided, further, that Receivables of any Obligor which has any
        accounts payable by the applicable Originator or by a wholly-owned
        Subsidiary of such Originator (thus giving rise to a potential offset
        against such Receivables) may be treated as Eligible Receivables to the
        extent that the Obligor of such Receivables has agreed pursuant to a
        written agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, that
        such Receivables shall not be subject to such offset,

                (xvii)  as to which the applicable Originator has satisfied and
        fully performed all obligations on its part with respect to such
        Receivable required to be fulfilled by it, and no further action is
        required to be performed by any Person with respect thereto other than
        payment thereon by the applicable Obligor,

                (xviii) as to which each of the representations and warranties
        contained in Sections 5.1(i), (j), (r), (s), (t) and (u) is true and
        correct,

                (xix)   all right, title and interest to and in which has been
        validly transferred by the applicable Originator directly to Borrower
        under and in accordance with the Receivables Sale Agreement, and
        Borrower has good and marketable title thereto free and clear of any
        Adverse Claim

                         FORM OF PERFORMANCE UNDERTAKING

        This Performance Undertaking (this "Undertaking"), dated as of January
31, 2003, is executed by Massey Energy Company, a Delaware corporation (the
"Performance Guarantor") in favor of Massey Receivables Corporation, a Delaware
corporation (together with its successors and assigns, "Recipient").

                                    RECITALS

        1.      Massey Coal Sales Company, Inc., Central West Virginia Energy
Company and Central Penn Energy Company, Inc. (collectively, the "Originators"),
and Recipient have entered into a Receivables Sale Agreement, dated as of
January 31, 2003 (as amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time,
the "Sale Agreement"), pursuant to which Originators, subject to the terms and
conditions contained therein, are selling and/or contributing their respective
right, title and interest in their accounts receivable to Recipient.

        2.      Performance Guarantor directly or indirectly owns one hundred
percent (100%) of the capital stock of each of the Originators and Recipient,
and each of the Originators, and accordingly, Performance Guarantor, is expected
to receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from their sale or
contribution of receivables to Recipient pursuant to the Sale Agreement (which
benefits are hereby acknowledged).

        3.      As an inducement for Recipient to acquire Originators' accounts
receivable pursuant to the Sale Agreement, Performance Guarantor has agreed to
guaranty the due and punctual performance by Originators of their obligations
under the Sale Agreement, as well as A.T. Massey Coal Company, Inc.'s Servicing
Related Obligations (as hereinafter defined).

        4.      Performance Guarantor wishes to guaranty the due and punctual
performance by Originators of their obligations to Recipient under or in respect
of the Sale Agreement and A.T. Massey Coal Company, Inc.'s Servicing Related
Obligations (as hereinafter defined), as provided herein.

                                    AGREEMENT

        NOW, THEREFORE, Performance Guarantor hereby agrees as follows:

        Section 1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used herein and not defined
herein shall the respective meanings assigned thereto in the Sale Agreement or
the Credit and Security Agreement (as hereinafter defined). In addition:

Guaranteed Obligations: Collectively: (i) all covenants, agreements, terms,
conditions and indemnities to be performed and observed by any Originator under
and pursuant to the Sale Agreement and each other document executed and
delivered by any Originator pursuant to the Sale Agreement, including, without
limitation, the due and punctual payment of all sums which

                                        1

<PAGE>

are or may become due and owing by any Originator under the Sale Agreement,
whether for fees, expenses (including counsel fees), indemnified amounts or
otherwise, whether upon any termination or for any other reason and (ii) all
obligations of A.T. Massey Coal Company, Inc., (A) as Servicer under the Credit
and Security Agreement, dated as of January 31, 2003 by and among Recipient, as
Borrower, A.T. Massey Coal Company, Inc., as Servicer, Blue Ridge Asset Funding
Corporation, the Liquidity Banks and Wachovia Bank, National Association, as
Agent (as amended, restated or otherwise modified, the "Credit and Security
Agreement" and, together with the Sale Agreement, the "Agreements") or (B) which
arise pursuant to Sections 8.2, 8.3 or 14.4(a) of the Credit and Security
Agreement as a result of its termination as Servicer (all such obligations under
this clause (ii), collectively, the "Servicing Related Obligations").

        Section 2. Guaranty of Performance of Guaranteed Obligations.
Performance Guarantor hereby guarantees to Recipient, the full and punctual
payment and performance by each Originator of its respective Guaranteed
Obligations. This Undertaking is an absolute, unconditional and continuing
guaranty of the full and punctual performance of all Guaranteed Obligations of
each Originator under the Agreements and each other document executed and
delivered by any Originator pursuant to the Agreements and is in no way
conditioned upon any requirement that Recipient first attempt to collect any
amounts owing by any Originator to Recipient, the Agent or the Lenders from any
other Person or resort to any collateral security, any balance of any deposit
account or credit on the books of Recipient, the Agent or any Lender in favor of
any Originator or any other Person or other means of obtaining payment. Should
any Originator default in the payment or performance of any of its Guaranteed
Obligations, Recipient (or its assigns) may cause the immediate performance by
Performance Guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations and cause any payment
Guaranteed Obligations to become forthwith due and payable to Recipient (or its
assigns), without demand or notice of any nature (other than as expressly
provided herein), all of which are hereby expressly waived by Performance
Guarantor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Undertaking is not a guarantee of
the collection of any of the Receivables and Performance Guarantor shall not be
responsible for any Guaranteed Obligations to the extent the failure to perform
such Guaranteed Obligations by any Originator results from Receivables being
uncollectible on account of the insolvency, bankruptcy or lack of
creditworthiness of the related Obligor; provided that nothing herein shall
relieve any Originator from performing in full its Guaranteed Obligations under
the Agreements or Performance Guarantor of its undertaking hereunder with
respect to the full performance of such duties.

        Section 3. Performance Guarantor's Further Agreements to Pay.
Performance Guarantor further agrees, as the principal obligor and not as a
guarantor only, to pay to Recipient (and its assigns), forthwith upon demand in
funds immediately available to Recipient, all reasonable costs and expenses
(including court costs and reasonable legal expenses) incurred or expended by
Recipient in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations, this Undertaking and
the enforcement thereof, together with interest on amounts recoverable under
this Undertaking from the time when such amounts become due until payment, at a
rate of interest (computed for the actual number of days elapsed based on a 360
day year) equal to the Prime Rate plus 2% per annum, such rate of interest
changing when and as the Prime Rate changes.

        Section 4. Waivers by Performance Guarantor. Performance Guarantor
waives notice of acceptance of this Undertaking, notice of any action taken or
omitted by Recipient (or its assigns) in reliance on this Undertaking, and any
requirement that Recipient (or its assigns) be

                                        2

<PAGE>

diligent or prompt in making demands under this Undertaking, giving notice of
any Termination Event, Amortization Event, other default or omission by any
Originator or asserting any other rights of Recipient under this Undertaking.
Performance Guarantor warrants that it has adequate means to obtain from each
Originator, on a continuing basis, information concerning the financial
condition of such Originator, and that it is not relying on Recipient to provide
such information, now or in the future. Performance Guarantor also irrevocably
waives all defenses (i) that at any time may be available in respect of the
Obligations by virtue of any statute of limitations, valuation, stay, moratorium
law or other similar law now or hereafter in effect or (ii) that arise under the
law of suretyship, including impairment of collateral. Recipient (and its
assigns) shall be at liberty, without giving notice to or obtaining the assent
of Performance Guarantor and without relieving Performance Guarantor of any
liability under this Undertaking, to deal with each Originator and with each
other party who now is or after the date hereof becomes liable in any manner for
any of the Guaranteed Obligations, in such manner as Recipient in its sole
discretion deems fit, and to this end Performance Guarantor agrees that the
validity and enforceability of this Undertaking, including without limitation,
the provisions of Section 7 hereof, shall not be impaired or affected by any of
the following: (a) any extension, modification or renewal of, or indulgence with
respect to, or substitutions for, the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof
or any agreement relating thereto at any time; (b) any failure or omission to
enforce any right, power or remedy with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or
any part thereof or any agreement relating thereto, or any collateral securing
the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof; (c) any waiver of any right,
power or remedy or of any Termination Event, Amortization Event, or default with
respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof or any agreement
relating thereto; (d) any release, surrender, compromise, settlement, waiver,
subordination or modification, with or without consideration, of any other
obligation of any person or entity with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or
any part thereof; (e) the enforceability or validity of the Guaranteed
Obligations or any part thereof or the genuineness, enforceability or validity
of any agreement relating thereto or with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations
or any part thereof; (f) the application of payments received from any source to
the payment of any payment Obligations of any Originator or any part thereof or
amounts which are not covered by this Undertaking even though Recipient (or its
assigns) might lawfully have elected to apply such payments to any part or all
of the payment Obligations of such Originator or to amounts which are not
covered by this Undertaking; (g) the existence of any claim, setoff or other
rights which Performance Guarantor may have at any time against any Originator
in connection herewith or any unrelated transaction; (h) any assignment or
transfer of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof; or (i) any failure
on the part of any Originator to perform or comply with any term of the
Agreements or any other document executed in connection therewith or delivered
thereunder, all whether or not Performance Guarantor shall have had notice or
knowledge of any act or omission referred to in the foregoing clauses (a)
through (i) of this Section 4.

        Section 5. Unenforceability of Guaranteed Obligations Against
Originators. Notwithstanding (a) any change of ownership of any Originator or
the insolvency, bankruptcy or any other change in the legal status of any
Originator; (b) the change in or the imposition of any law, decree, regulation
or other governmental act which does or might impair, delay or in any way affect
the validity, enforceability or the payment when due of the Guaranteed
Obligations; (c) the failure of any Originator or Performance Guarantor to
maintain in full force, validity or effect or to obtain or renew when required
all governmental and other approvals, licenses or

                                        3

<PAGE>

consents required in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations or this
Undertaking, or to take any other action required in connection with the
performance of all obligations pursuant to the Guaranteed Obligations or this
Undertaking; or (d) if any of the moneys included in the Guaranteed Obligations
have become irrecoverable from any Originator for any other reason other than
final payment in full of the payment Obligations in accordance with their terms,
this Undertaking shall nevertheless be binding on Performance Guarantor. This
Undertaking shall be in addition to any other guaranty or other security for the
Guaranteed Obligations, and it shall not be rendered unenforceable by the
invalidity of any such other guaranty or security. In the event that
acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is
stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Originator or
for any other reason with respect to any Originator, all such amounts then due
and owing with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations under the terms of the
Agreements, or any other agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in
connection with the Guaranteed Obligations, shall be immediately due and payable
by Performance Guarantor.

        Section 6. Representations and Warranties. Performance Guarantor hereby
represents and warrants to Recipient that:

        (a)     Existence and Standing. Performance Guarantor is a corporation
duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its
state of incorporation. Performance Guarantor is duly qualified to do business
and is in good standing as a foreign corporation, and has and holds all
corporate power and all governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and
approvals required to carry on its business in each jurisdiction in which its
business is conducted except where the failure to so qualify or so hold could
not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

        (b)     Authorization, Execution and Delivery; Binding Effect. The
execution and delivery by Performance Guarantor of this Undertaking, and the
performance of its obligations hereunder, are within its corporate powers and
authority and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on its
part. This Undertaking has been duly executed and delivered by Performance
Guarantor. This Undertaking constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation
of Performance Guarantor enforceable against Performance Guarantor in accordance
with their respective terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws relating
to or limiting creditors' rights generally and by general principles of equity
(regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at
law).

        (c)     No Conflict; Government Consent. The execution and delivery by
Performance Guarantor of this Undertaking, and the performance of its
obligations hereunder do not contravene or violate (i) its certificate or
articles of incorporation or by-laws, (ii) any law, rule or regulation
applicable to it, (iii) any restrictions under any agreement, contract or
instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its property is
bound, or (iv) any order, writ, judgment, award, injunction or decree binding on
or affecting it or its property, and do not result in the creation or imposition
of any Adverse Claim on assets of Performance Guarantor or its Subsidiaries
(except as created hereunder) except, in any case, where such contravention or
violation could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

                                        4

<PAGE>

        (d)     Financial Statements. The consolidated financial statements of
Performance Guarantor and its consolidated Subsidiaries dated as of October 31,
2001 and September 30, 2002 heretofore delivered to Recipient have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied
and fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial condition
and results of operations of Performance Guarantor and its consolidated
Subsidiaries as of such dates and for the periods ended on such dates. Since the
later of (i) December 31, 2001 and (ii) the last time this representation was
made or deemed made, no event has occurred which would or could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

        (e)     Taxes. Performance Guarantor has filed all United States federal
tax returns and all other tax returns which are required to be filed and have
paid all taxes due pursuant to said returns or pursuant to any assessment
received by Performance Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries, except such taxes,
if any, as are being contested in good faith and as to which adequate reserves
have been provided. The United States income tax returns of Performance
Guarantor have been audited by the Internal Revenue Service through the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2002. No federal or state tax liens have been filed and
no claims are being asserted with respect to any such taxes. The charges,
accruals and reserves on the books of Performance Guarantor in respect of any
taxes or other governmental charges are adequate.

        (f)     Litigation and Contingent Obligations. Except as disclosed in
the filings made by Performance Guarantor with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, there are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the best
of Performance Guarantor's knowledge threatened against or affecting Performance
Guarantor or any of its properties, in or before any court, arbitrator or other
body, that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on (i)
the business, properties, condition (financial or otherwise) or results of
operations of Performance Guarantor and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, (ii)
the ability of Performance Guarantor to perform its obligations under this
Undertaking, or (iii) the validity or enforceability of any of this Undertaking
or the rights or remedies of Recipient hereunder. Performance Guarantor does not
have any material Contingent Obligations not provided for or disclosed in the
financial statements referred to in Section 6(d).

        Section 6A. Financial Covenants. Each of the financial covenants set
forth in Section 5.02 of each of the Credit Agreements is hereby incorporated by
reference, as if each such covenant were set forth herein in its entirety, such
incorporation by reference to be effective from and after the date on which the
commitments of the financial institutions party thereto expire, cease to be
available to Massey Energy Company or otherwise cease to be in full force and
effect.

        Section 6B. Intercreditor Agreement. Performance Guarantor will take no
action in violation of any provision of the Intercreditor Agreement or fail to
take any action that could be reasonably expected to result in a violation of
any provision of the Intercreditor Agreement.

        Section 7. Subrogation; Subordination. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, until the Guaranteed Obligations are paid in full
Performance Guarantor: (a) will not enforce or otherwise exercise any right of
subrogation to any of the rights of Recipient, the Agent or any Lender against
any Originator, (b) hereby waives all rights of subrogation

                                        5

<PAGE>

(whether contractual, under Section 509 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, at
law or in equity or otherwise) to the claims of Recipient, the Agent and the
Lenders against any Originator and all contractual, statutory or legal or
equitable rights of contribution, reimbursement, indemnification and similar
rights and "claims" (as that term is defined in the United States Bankruptcy
Code) which Performance Guarantor might now have or hereafter acquire against
any Originator that arise from the existence or performance of Performance
Guarantor's obligations hereunder, (c) will not claim any setoff, recoupment or
counterclaim against any Originator in respect of any liability of Performance
Guarantor to such Originator and (d) waives any benefit of and any right to
participate in any collateral security which may be held by Beneficiaries, the
Agent or the Lenders. The payment of any amounts due with respect to any
indebtedness of any Originator now or hereafter owed to Performance Guarantor is
hereby subordinated to the prior payment in full of all of the Guaranteed
Obligations. Performance Guarantor agrees that, after the occurrence of any
default in the payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations,
Performance Guarantor will not demand, sue for or otherwise attempt to collect
any such indebtedness of any Originator to Performance Guarantor until all of
the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid and performed in full. If,
notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, Performance Guarantor shall collect,
enforce or receive any amounts in respect of such indebtedness while any
Obligations are still unperformed or outstanding, such amounts shall be
collected, enforced and received by Performance Guarantor as trustee for
Recipient (and its assigns) and be paid over to Recipient (or its assigns) on
account of the Guaranteed Obligations without affecting in any manner the
liability of Performance Guarantor under the other provisions of this
Undertaking. The provisions of this Section 7 shall be supplemental to and not
in derogation of any rights and remedies of Recipient under any separate
subordination agreement which Recipient may at any time and from time to time
enter into with Performance Guarantor.

        Section 8. Termination of Performance Undertaking. Performance
Guarantor's obligations hereunder shall continue in full force and effect until
all Obligations are finally paid and satisfied in full and the Credit and
Security Agreement is terminated, provided that this Undertaking shall continue
to be effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time
payment or other satisfaction of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded
or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the bankruptcy, insolvency, or
reorganization of any Originator or otherwise, as though such payment had not
been made or other satisfaction occurred, whether or not Recipient (or its
assigns) is in possession of this Undertaking. No invalidity, irregularity or
unenforceability by reason of the federal bankruptcy code or any insolvency or
other similar law, or any law or order of any government or agency thereof
purporting to reduce, amend or otherwise affect the Guaranteed Obligations shall
impair, affect, be a defense to or claim against the obligations of Performance
Guarantor under this Undertaking.

        Section 9. Effect of Bankruptcy. This Undertaking shall survive the
insolvency of any Originator and the commencement of any case or proceeding by
or against any Originator under the federal bankruptcy code or other federal,
state or other applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization statutes. No
automatic stay under the federal bankruptcy code with respect to any Originator
or other federal, state or other applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or
reorganization statutes to which any Originator is subject shall postpone the
obligations of Performance Guarantor under this Undertaking.

        Section 10. Setoff. Regardless of the other means of obtaining payment
of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, Recipient (and its assigns) is hereby
authorized at any time and from time to time, without notice to Performance
Guarantor (any such notice being expressly waived by Performance Guarantor) and
to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any deposits and
other sums against the obligations of Performance Guarantor under this
Undertaking, whether or not Recipient (or any such assign) shall have made any
demand under this Undertaking and although such Obligations may be contingent or
unmatured.

        Section 11. Taxes. (a) All payments to be made by Performance Guarantor
hereunder shall be made free and clear of any deduction or withholding. If
Performance Guarantor is required by law to make any deduction or withholding on
account of any Tax or otherwise from any such payment, the sum due from it in
respect of such payment shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure
that, after the making of such deduction or withholding, any Recipient receives
a net sum equal to the sum which it would have received had no deduction or
withholding been made.

        (b)     Notwithstanding any other provision of this Undertaking, the
Performance Guarantor shall not be required to indemnify or pay any additional
amounts to the Recipient (or its assigns) pursuant to this Section 11 with
respect to Taxes imposed by the United States if the obligation to withhold with
respect to such Taxes results from, or would not have occurred but for, the
failure of the Recipient (or its assigns) to deliver to the Performance
Guarantor (following written request by the Performance Guarantor) (i) a
complete and properly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI,
as appropriate, or any successor form prescribed by the Internal Revenue
Service, certifying that such Recipient (or its assigns) is entitled to benefits
under an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party which reduces
to zero the rate of withholding tax on payments due under this Undertaking or
certifying that the income receivable pursuant to this Undertaking or any of the
other Transaction Documents is effectively connected with the conduct of trade
or business in the United States, (ii) a complete and properly executed Internal
Revenue Service Form W-9, or any successor form prescribed by the Internal
Revenue Service, (iii) any other complete and properly executed form or
certificate required by any taxing authority (including any certificate required
by Sections 871(h) and 881(c) of the Tax Code), certifying that such Recipient
(or its assigns) is entitled to a complete exemption from tax on payments
pursuant to this Undertaking or any of the other Transaction Documents, or (iv)
a complete and properly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY and any
related documents required in conjunction with such W-8IMY (unless such failure
is due to a change in treaty, law or regulation occurring subsequent to the date
on which a form originally was required to be provided). The Recipient (or its
assigns) shall not have failed to comply with the provisions of this Section
11(b) if it is legally unable to deliver the forms described herein.

        (c)     If any Recipient (or its assigns) actually receives a refund or
actually realizes the benefit of a credit or reduction in respect of any Taxes
for which it has received any payments pursuant to this Section 11 with respect
to Taxes, such Recipient (or the assignee who received such refund or realized
such benefit) shall within 45 days from the date of such receipt or realization
pay over the amount of such refund, credit or reduction to the Performance
Guarantor (but only to the extent of the payments made pursuant to this Section
11 with respect to Taxes), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of such
Recipient (or such assignee) and without interest

                                        7

(other than interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to
such refund, credit or reduction).

        (d)     References in this Section 11 to the Recipient shall also refer
to and include any assignee, participant, transferee, successor or designee of
all or a portion of such Recipient's rights and obligations under this
Undertaking. Therefore, each assignee, participant, transferee, successor or
designee shall be required to deliver or cause to be delivered to the Recipient
properly completed and duly executed documents as provided in Section 11(b).

        Section 12. Further Assurances. Performance Guarantor agrees that it
will from time to time, at the request of Recipient (or its assigns), provide
information relating to the business and affairs of Performance Guarantor as
Recipient may reasonably request. Performance Guarantor also agrees to do all
such things and execute all such documents as Recipient (or its assigns) may
reasonably consider necessary or desirable to give full effect to this
Undertaking and to perfect and preserve the rights and powers of Recipient
hereunder.

        Section 13. Successors and Assigns. This Undertaking shall be binding
upon Performance Guarantor, its successors and permitted assigns, and shall
inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Recipient and its successors and
assigns. Performance Guarantor may not assign or transfer any of its obligations
hereunder without the prior written consent of each of Recipient and the Agent.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, Recipient may assign
or otherwise transfer the Agreements, any other documents executed in connection
therewith or delivered thereunder or any other agreement or note held by them
evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with the Guaranteed
Obligations, or sell participations in any interest therein, to any other entity
or other person, and such other entity or other person shall thereupon become
vested, to the extent set forth in the agreement evidencing such assignment,
transfer or participation, with all the rights in respect thereof granted to the
Beneficiaries herein.

        Section 14. Amendments and Waivers. No amendment or waiver of any
provision of this Undertaking nor consent to any departure by Performance
Guarantor therefrom shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and
signed by Recipient, the Agent and Performance Guarantor. No failure on the part
of Recipient to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall
operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any
right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise
of any other right.

        Section 15. Notices. All notices and other communications provided for
hereunder shall be made in writing and shall be addressed as follows: if to
Performance Guarantor, at the address set forth beneath its signature hereto,
and if to Recipient, at the addresses set forth beneath its signature hereto, or
at such other addresses as each of Performance Guarantor or any Recipient may
designate in writing to the other. Each such notice or other communication shall
be effective (1) if given by telecopy, upon the receipt thereof, (2) if given by
mail, three (3) Business Days after the time such communication is deposited in
the mail with first class postage prepaid or (3) if given by any other means,
when received at the address specified in this Section 15.

        Section 16. GOVERNING LAW. THIS UNDERTAKING SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS (AND NOT THE LAW OF CONFLICTS) OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK.

        Section 17. CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. EACH OF PROVIDER AND RECIPIENT
HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY UNITED
STATES FEDERAL OR NEW YORK STATE COURT SITTING IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN
ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS UNDERTAKING, THE
AGREEMENTS OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT EXECUTED IN CONNECTION THEREWITH OR DELIVERED
THEREUNDER AND EACH OF THE PERFORMANCE GUARANTOR AND RECIPIENT HEREBY
IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY
BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN ANY SUCH COURT AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION
IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE AS TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR
PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT OR THAT SUCH COURT IS AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.

        Section 18. Bankruptcy Petition. Performance Guarantor hereby covenants
and agrees that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the
payment in full of all outstanding senior Indebtedness of Blue Ridge, it will
not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, Blue
Ridge any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation
proceedings or other similar proceeding under the laws of the United States or
any state of the United States.

        Performance Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees that, prior to the
date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding
senior indebtedness of Blue Ridge, it will not institute against, or join any
other Person in instituting against, Recipient any bankruptcy, reorganization,
arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or other similar proceeding
under the laws of the United States or any state of the United States.

        Section 19. Miscellaneous. This Undertaking constitutes the entire
agreement of Performance Guarantor with respect to the matters set forth herein.
The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any
remedies provided by law or any other agreement, and this Undertaking shall be
in addition to any other guaranty of or collateral security for any of the
Guaranteed Obligations. The provisions of this Undertaking are severable, and in
any action or proceeding involving any state corporate law, or any state or
federal bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights
of creditors generally, if the obligations of Performance Guarantor hereunder
would otherwise be held or determined to be avoidable, invalid or unenforceable
on account of the amount of Performance Guarantor's liability under this
Undertaking, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Undertaking to
the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by
Performance Guarantor or Recipient, be automatically limited and reduced to the
highest amount that is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or
proceeding. Any provisions of this Undertaking which are 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 hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any
other jurisdiction.
