Re: Loan Agreement


Dear Mr. Roberts:

     The undersigned, Roberts Tower Company ("BORROWER"), a corporation duly
organized, existing, and in good standing under the laws of the State of
Missouri, is an affiliate of Roberts Wireless Communications, L.L.C., a limited
liability company duly organized, existing, and in good standing under the laws
of the State of Missouri ("RWC"), which has entered into an Agreement and Plan
of Reorganization (the "MERGER AGREEMENT") pursuant to which RWC will merge (the
"PARENT MERGER") with and into Alamosa Holdings, Inc. ("SUPERHOLDINGS")
simultaneously with the merger (the "SUBSIDIARY MERGER," together with the
Parent Merger, the "MERGERS") of a wholly-owned subsidiary of Superholdings with
and into Alamosa PCS Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("ALAMOSA").

     In connection with the anticipated Parent Merger, Borrower has requested
that Alamosa Operations, Inc., a Delaware corporation (in its capacity as Lender
hereunder, "LENDER"), extend credit to Borrower to enable Borrower to borrow as
of and after the date of this Agreement a principal amount not to exceed
$15,000,000, only for the purposes of repaying all amounts owed by the Roberts
(defined below ) under that certain loan agreement, dated June 30, 2000 as
relates to the Borrower's operations, between the Roberts and Lender, and
funding the construction of wireless telecommunications towers related to RWC
from the date hereof through the consummation of the Mergers (the "MERGER
DATE"). Lender has advised Borrower that Lender is willing to advance such funds
to Borrower upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this
letter agreement (this "AGREEMENT"). In consideration for the above premises and
the mutual promises and covenants herein contained, Borrower and Lender agree as
follows:

     1. Loan. On the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth,
Lender agrees to lend to Borrower, in multiple advances (each an "ADVANCE") to
be made before the Maturity Date (defined below), the sum of up to $15,000,000
(the "LOAN"). The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that as of November 7,
2000, Advances in the aggregate amount of $9,063,437 have been made under this
Agreement.

     2. Manner of Borrowing.

     (a) Notice of Borrowing. Whenever Borrower desires that Lender makes an
Advance after October 18, 2000, Borrower shall (i) give Lender a request (a
"NOTICE OF BORROWING") signed by Borrower for an Advance on or before 10:00 a.m.
(Dallas, Texas time) two days before the requested Advance is to be funded, (ii)
specify in the Notice of Borrowing the aggregate amount, requested date, and the
intended use of the Advance, (iii) attach to the Notice of Borrowing all unpaid
third-party vendor invoices submitted which the Borrower requests be paid from
the proceeds of such Advance and (iv) certify that the representations and
warranties contained in each of the Loan Documents (defined below) are true in
all material respects as though made on the date of the Notice of Borrowing. The
invoices submitted with any Notice of Borrowing shall only be invoices for
required goods and services provided by third-party vendors for the construction
of wireless telecommunications towers related to RWC from the date hereof (the
"APPROVED INVOICES").

     (b) Minimum Advances; Number of Advances. Each Advance hereunder shall be
in a minimum amount of $1,000,000, and no more than five (5) Advances each
calendar month may be requested or funded.

     (c) Funding. Subject to the terms and conditions in this Agreement, if
Lender, in its sole discretion, approves the Notice of Borrowing (which approval
shall not be unreasonably withheld), not later than 2:00 p.m., Dallas, Texas
time, on the date specified, Lender shall make the requested Advance (reduced by
the amount of any invoices that are not Approved Invoices) available to either
the Borrower on behalf of the vendors or, at the exclusive option of the Lender,
the vendors directly, at Lender's offices in Lubbock, Texas, the amount of the
Approved Invoices for such vendors submitted with such Notice of Borrowing in
immediately available funds. Borrower agrees that any Approved Invoices
submitted with a Notice of Borrowing may be paid directly by Lender's personnel,
at the exclusive option of the Lender, from the amount of the requested Advance.

     3. Promissory Note, Interest, and Payments.

     (a) Note. The Loan shall be evidenced by a promissory note in the form of
EXHIBIT A, duly executed by Borrower (together with any renewals and extensions
thereof, the "NOTE"), dated the date hereof, in the principal amount of
$15,000,000 and payable to the order of Lender.

     (b) Interest Rate. Before the occurrence of an Event of Default, each
Advance shall bear interest at a rate per annum, calculated from day to day and
computed from the date of advance until repaid, equal to the lesser of (i) the
maximum lawful rate under applicable law (the "MAXIMUM RATE") or (ii) 12% ("LOAN
INTEREST RATE"). Any past-due principal debt and all past-due interest accruing
thereon shall bear interest from maturity (stated or by acceleration) at a rate
per annum equal to the lesser of (i) the Maximum Rate or (ii) 17% per annum.

     (c) Payments.

          (i) Interest. Interest on the unpaid principal of the Loan shall be
     due and payable on the earlier of (A) March 31, 2001, (B) the Merger Date
     or (C) the effective date of any acceleration of any of the Obligation
     (defined below) (the "MATURITY DATE").



                                        2

<PAGE>




          (ii) Principal. The entire unpaid principal balance of the Loan,
     including all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable
     on the Maturity Date.

          (iii) Fees. (A) On the Maturity Date, Borrower agrees to pay to Lender
     a fee equal to 3% of the aggregate amount of all the Advances made to
     Borrower to and including the Maturity Date. In the event that a firm
     commitment for alternative funding, sufficient to cover for all Obligations
     (defined below) owed to Lender by Borrower, is obtained by Borrower on or
     before the later of (x) the 10th business day after Lender effectuates a
     substitution of collateral sufficient to cause the release of liens under
     the DLJ Loan Agreement (as hereinafter defined) on the assets transferred
     by RWC to Borrower as contemplated by Section 4.16 of the Merger Agreement
     or (y) November 30, 2000 (the later of (x) or (y) being the "COMMITMENT
     DATE") and all Obligations owed to Lender are paid in full on or before the
     15th day following the Commitment Date, then the payment of the fees
     described above shall be waived.

               (B) In the event, however, that any Obligation under this
          Agreement is outstanding at January 10, 2001, on the Maturity Date,
          Borrower agrees to pay to Lender an additional fee equal to 3% of the
          aggregate amount of all the Advances made to Borrower to and including
          the Maturity Date.

          (iv) Assignment of Membership Interests. (A) If (x) the Mergers are
     not consummated, and (y) the Loan, all accrued unpaid interest thereon, all
     fees, and all other sums due from Borrower to Lender under this Agreement
     and the other Loan Documents (collectively, the "OBLIGATION") are not paid
     in full, then Michael V. Robert and Steven C. Roberts (the "ROBERTS") shall
     cause Roberts Wireless Holdings, LLC to assign, transfer, and convey to
     Lender, without recourse, within ninety (90) days after the date of a
     written notice delivered by Lender to RWC advising RWC that the Merger
     Agreement is being terminated and that the Mergers will not be consummated,
     all or a portion of its membership interests in RWC so that Lender shall
     own, in addition to any other membership interests in RWC that Lender may
     already own or have the right to own under any other agreement with RWC,
     Roberts or others, on a fully diluted basis, 10% of the total membership
     interests in RWC (the "10% INTEREST"), free and clear of all liens and
     encumbrances, other than the pledge of and lien on such interests to secure
     the obligations under the loan agreement, dated as of September 8, 1999,
     between RWC and Lucent Technologies, Inc., assignor of all of its rights
     and obligations under such loan agreement to DLJ Capital Funding, Inc. (the
     "DLJ LOAN AGREEMENT"). Such obligation of the Roberts (x) is joint and
     several, (y) is evidenced by the Agreement to Assign Membership Interests
     (the "ASSIGNMENT AGREEMENT") in the form of EXHIBIT B and (z) provided that
     if the fair market value of the 10% Interest , as such fair market value is
     determined in accordance with the provisions of clause (B) below, is
     determined to be equal to or greater than the Obligation then the 10%
     Interest shall replace the obligation of Borrower to repay the Obligation
     and, when the 10% Interest is assigned to Lender, then Borrower shall have
     no further obligation under this Agreement. In case, however, that the fair
     market value of the 10% Interest is determined to be less than the
     Obligation, then the fair market value of the 10% Interest shall be applied
     towards the payment of the Obligation.

                                        3

<PAGE>




               (B) Lender and Borrower shall each select an investment banker to
          determine the fair market value of the 10% Interest. The investment
          bankers shall take into account the usual factors for determining the
          value of a minority interest in a private company. The investment
          bankers shall cooperate with each other to complete and agree upon the
          fair market value of the 10% Interest no later than 30 days following
          the assignment of the 10% Interest. In the event that the two
          investment bankers can not agree upon the fair market value of the 10%
          Interest within the 30-day period, the two investment bankers shall
          select a mutually acceptable, neutral and qualified investment banker
          (the "NEUTRAL INVESTMENT BANKER"). All relevant documentation and
          information shall be submitted to the Neutral Investment Banker who
          shall resolve the dispute within 10 days after submission of the
          dispute and supporting documentation. The decision of the Neutral
          Investment Banker shall be final and binding upon Lender and Borrower,
          each of whom shall bear one-half of the cost and expense of the
          Neutral Investment Banker.

               (C) If (x) the Mergers are consummated, and (y) the Obligation is
          not paid in full prior to or simultaneously with the Parent Merger,
          the Roberts agree that (i) Lender shall be entitled to retain all or a
          portion of the cash and stock due to the Roberts as part of the Parent
          Merger consideration and apply such consideration towards the payment
          of the Obligation, or (ii) the Roberts shall pledge the stock due to
          them as part of the Parent Merger consideration as security for a loan
          from a third-party in an amount sufficient to repay the Obligation
          and, thereafter, they shall tender to Lender the full amount of the
          Obligation owed to such Lender, including principal, accrued but
          unpaid interest on the Loan and fees.

          (v) Optional Prepayment. Borrower shall have the right, from time to
     time before the Maturity Date or payment of the Loan is otherwise demanded,
     to prepay the Loan in whole upon the payment of all principal, accrued
     interest and fees on the amount prepaid to and including the date of
     payment.

          (vi) General Payment Terms. All payments on the Loan shall be made to
     Lender at its principal office in Lubbock, Texas in federal or other
     immediately available funds, and payments shall be applied first to accrued
     interest and then to principal. If any payment is scheduled to become due
     and payable on a day that is not a business day, that payment shall instead
     become due and payable on the immediately following business day, interest
     shall be payable with respect to the extension, and interest on the
     principal portion of the payment shall be payable at the then applicable
     rate during the extension. Interest on the Loan shall be calculated on the
     basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the
     first but excluding the last) elapsed, unless the Maximum Rate shall be in
     effect, in which case on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the
     case may be.

     4. Conditions Precedent.

     (a) Initial Advance. The obligation of Lender to make its initial Advance
after the date hereof is subject to the condition that Lender has received duly
executed copies of each of the documents listed on SCHEDULE 4, each in form and
substance satisfactory to Lender and its legal counsel (those documents together

<PAGE>




protest, notice of intention to accelerate, notice of acceleration, or other
notice of any kind, all of which Borrower hereby expressly waives, anything
contained herein, in the Note, or in any other Loan Document to the contrary
notwithstanding, (ii) reduce any claim to judgment, and/or (iii) without notice
of default or demand, pursue and enforce any of Lender's rights and remedies
under the Loan Documents or otherwise provided under or pursuant to any
applicable law or agreement.

     10. Preemptive Right. Notwithstanding RWC's LLC Agreement (as defined in
the Assignment Agreement), upon the assignment of the Membership Interests (as
defined in the Assignment Agreement) to Lender pursuant to SECTION 3(c)(iv), RWC
grants to Lender the preemptive right to purchase up to Lender's Proportionate
Interest (defined below) of any Membership Interests that RWC may, from time to
time, propose to sell to any other person; provided, however, that Lender shall
not have any preemptive right with respect to the distribution by, or exchange
offer of, RWC of its securities to all of its members of any Membership
Interests that is made pro rata, based on the percentage of the outstanding
Membership Interests owned by each Assignor (as defined in the Assignment
Agreement) and Lender. As used in this Agreement, "PROPORTIONATE INTEREST" means
the quotient of the Membership Interests owned by Lender, divided by the total
Membership Interests issued and outstanding.

     If RWC proposes to sell securities in a transaction subject to the
preemptive right granted in this Section, then RWC shall give Lender written
notice (a "PREEMPTIVE RIGHT NOTICE") of RWC's intention, describing the type of
securities to be sold and the price and general terms upon which RWC proposes to
sell such securities. If the price specified in the Preemptive Right Notice is
payable in whole or in part in property (including without limitation the
securities of any other issuer) other than cash, then Lender shall pay cash in
lieu of such property, at the fair market value of such property determined in
good faith by Assignors and Lender.

     Lender shall have 15 days from the date the Preemptive Right Notice is
given to notify RWC whether Lender elects to purchase all or any portion of
Lender's Proportionate Interest of such securities for the identical price and
upon the same general terms specified in the Preemptive Right Notice. Such
notice (the "ELECTION NOTICE") shall be in writing and shall state the quantity
of such securities to be so purchased. If Lender does not timely deliver an
Election Notice, it shall be deemed to have waived its preemptive rights with
respect to such sale, provided that RWC consummates the sale within 180 days
after the expiration of such 15 day period at a price equal to or greater than
the price specified in the Preemptive Right Notice given to Lender by RWC under
this Section.

     11. Miscellaneous.

     (a) Waiver. No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, on the part
of Lender, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any
single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right. The rights of Lender hereunder and
under the other Loan Documents shall be in addition to all other rights provided
by law. No notice or demand given in any case shall constitute a waiver of the
right to take other action in the same, similar or other instances without such
notice or demand.






                                       11

<PAGE>




     (b) Notices. Any notices or other communications required or permitted to
be given by any of the Loan Documents must be given in writing and must be
personally delivered, telecopied (with an original notice delivered by overnight
courier service), or mailed by prepaid certified or registered mail to the party
to whom such notice or communication is directed at the address of such party
set forth on the signature page to this Agreement. Any such notice or other
communication shall be deemed to have been given on the day it is received as
aforesaid. Any party may change its address for purposes of this Agreement by
giving notice of such change to all other parties pursuant to this SECTION
11(b).

     (c) Governing Law. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are being
executed and delivered, and are intended to be performed in, Lubbock County, in
the State of Texas, and the substantive laws of Texas shall govern the validity,
construction, enforcement, and interpretation of this Agreement and all other
Loan Documents, except to the extent: (i) the federal laws governing national
banks expressly supersede and have contrary application; or (ii) federal laws
governing maximum interest rates shall provide for rates of interest higher than
those permitted under the laws of the State of Texas.

     (d) Invalid Provisions. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be
illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during
the term of this Agreement, such provision shall be fully severable and this
Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or
unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of this Agreement, and the
remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and
shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision or by
its severance from this Agreement.

     (e) Maximum Interest Rate. Regardless of any provisions contained in this
Agreement, the Note, or in any of other Loan Documents, Lender shall never be
deemed to have contracted for or be entitled to receive, collect, or apply as
interest on the Note, any amount in excess of the maximum rate of interest
permitted to be charged by applicable law, and, if Lender ever receives,
collects, or applies as interest any such excess, such amount which would be
excessive interest shall be deemed to be a partial prepayment of principal and
treated hereunder as such, and, if the principal balance of the Note is paid in
full, any remaining excess shall forthwith be paid to Borrower. In determining
whether or not the interest paid or payable under any specific contingency
exceeds the highest lawful rate, Borrower, and Lender shall, to the maximum
extent permitted under applicable law, (i) characterize any non-principal
payment (other than payments which are expressly designated as interest payments
hereunder) as an expense, fee, or premium, rather than as interest, (ii) exclude
voluntary prepayments and the effect thereof, and (iii) spread the total amount
of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of the Note so that the
interest rate is uniform throughout such term.

     (f) Entirety and Amendments. The Loan Documents embody the entire agreement
between the parties and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, if
any, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents may be amended only by an instrument in writing
executed by the party, or an authorized officer of the party, against whom such
amendment is sought to be enforced.

     (g) Parties Bound. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors, assigns and legal
representatives; provided, however, that neither party





                                       12

<PAGE>




may, without the prior written consent of the other party, assign any of its
rights, powers, duties, or obligations hereunder.

     (h) Expenses. Borrower will promptly pay all reasonable costs, fees, and
expenses paid or incurred by Lender incident to this Agreement (including the
fees and expenses of counsel to Lender in connection with the negotiation,
preparation, and execution of this Agreement and any amendments hereto) or
incident to the collection of the Loan.

     (i) Headings. Section headings are for convenience of reference only and
shall in no way affect the interpretation of this Agreement.

     (j) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts.

     THIS WRITTEN LOAN AGREEMENT REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE
PARTIES REGARDING THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY
PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENT OF THE PARTIES.

     THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.

     If Borrower agrees to the foregoing, Borrower should execute this Agreement

Membership Interests in any manner without first obtaining the written consent
of Lender, which consent may be withheld in Lender's sole and absolute
discretion. Any written consent to any such sale, mortgage, transfer, or
encumbrance shall not be construed to be a waiver of this provision in respect
of any subsequent proposed sale, mortgage, transfer, or encumbrance;

     4.4 Each Assignor will, at his expense and in such manner and form as
Lender may from time to time reasonably require, execute, deliver, file, and
record any specific assignment or other instruments, financing statements,
certificates, or papers, and take any other action that may be necessary or
desirable, or that Lender may from time to time reasonably request, in order to
preserve, protect, and enforce this Agreement and to enable Lender to exercise
and enforce its rights hereunder with respect to any of the Membership
Interests. In the event, for any reason, that the law of any jurisdiction other
than the State of Texas becomes or is applicable to the Membership Interests, or
any part thereof, each Assignor agrees to execute and deliver all such
instruments and to do all such other things that may be necessary or appropriate
to preserve, protect, and enforce this Agreement under the law of such other
jurisdiction, to at least the same extent that this Agreement would be protected
under the Code;

     4.5 If any Assignor receives, by virtue of being or having been an owner of
any of the Membership Interests, any notes, other instruments, options, cash
distributions, or any other distribution, then such Assignor shall receive the
same in trust for the benefit of Lender, shall immediately notify Lender of such
receipt, and shall immediately take all such actions and execute all such
documents as Lender deems necessary or appropriate;

     4.6 Each Assignor will notify Lender in writing prior to any change of such
Assignor's address;

     4.7 Each Assignor shall cause to be obtained any and all waivers and
consents necessary to make effective the assignment, transfer, and conveyance
contained in SECTION 2.1, including, without limitation, all necessary waivers
and consents from the other members of the Company;

     4.8 Each Assignor shall perform fully all obligations imposed upon it by
any agreements or instruments concerning all or any part of the Membership
Interests, including, without limitation, the LLC Agreement, and shall maintain
in full force and effect all such agreements and instruments, and shall not
amend or modify, or consent to the amendment or modification of such agreements
or instruments, without the prior written consent of Lender; and

     4.9 Each Assignor shall promptly notify Lender of any material adverse
change in any material fact or material circumstance warranted or represented by
such Assignor in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any other
writing furnished by such Assignor to Lender in connection with the Membership
Interests or the Obligation, and shall promptly notify Lender of any claim,
action, or proceeding affecting title to the Membership Interests, or any part
thereof, and, at the request of Lender, shall appear and defend, at such
Assignor's expense, any such action or proceeding.

5. AGREEMENT TO ASSIGN RIGHTS OF PARTICIPATION AND REQUIRED SALE.

     After the Effective Date, if Assignors, individually or together
("PROPOSING ASSIGNORS"), negotiate and propose a Sale Transaction (defined
below), then Lender shall have the option upon notice as provided below to the
Proposing Assignors to participate in the Sale Transaction on the same terms as
the Proposing Assignors. If Lender fails to give a notice to participate as
provided below, then Lender shall, upon notice from the Proposing Assignors as
provided below participate in the Sale Transaction on the same terms and
conditions as the Proposing Assignors.

     Any Proposing Assignor shall deliver a notice (the "SALE NOTICE") to Lender
setting forth the terms of the proposed Sale Transaction at least 90 days prior
to the consummation of the proposed Sale Transaction. Lender may participate in
the Sale Transaction by delivering a notice to the Proposing Assignor within 30
days after delivery of the Sale Notice. Lender shall be required to participate
in the sale if the Proposing Assignor gives notice to Lender within 10 days
after the expiration of the 30-day period described in the immediately preceding
sentence.

     As used in this Section, "SALE TRANSACTION" means a sale of Membership
Interests held by Proposing Assignors that represent a majority of all the then
outstanding membership interests in the Company.

6. INSPECTION RIGHTS. Lender, at any time, shall, upon reasonable advance
notice, have the right, together with such accountants and other agents or
representatives as it may from time to time designate, to visit and inspect the
Company's properties, assets, books, records, and documents and to discuss the
Company's affairs, finances, and accounts with Assignor's and the Company's
representatives, officers, or directors, during all business hours as Lender may
designate, and to make and take away copies of the Company's records at
Assignors' expense. Each Assignor shall furnish to Lender any information
reasonably requested by Lender in connection with the Membership Interests. Each
Assignor will maintain complete and accurate books and records regarding the
Membership Interests.

7. MISCELLANEOUS

     7.1 LOAN DOCUMENT. This Agreement is a Loan Document executed pursuant to
the Loan Agreement and shall (unless otherwise expressly indicated herein) be
construed, administered, and applied in accordance with the terms and provisions
thereof.

     7.2 AMENDMENTS. No change, amendment, modification, cancellation, or
discharge of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless consented to
in writing by the party or parties against whom enforcement thereof is sought
(subject to the terms of the Loan Agreement).

     7.5 LIMITATION. Regardless of any provisions contained in this Agreement,
the Loan Agreement, or any note, notes, or other evidences of the Obligation, or
other instruments executed or delivered in connection therewith, Lender shall
not be entitled to receive, collect, or apply, as interest on the Obligation,
any amount in excess of the highest lawful rate and, in the event that Lender
ever receives, collects, or applies, as interest, any such excess, such amount
which would be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the
unpaid principal balance of the Obligation, and if the principal balance of the
Obligation is paid in full, any remaining excess shall be forthwith paid to
Assignor. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable, under any
specific contingency, exceeds the highest lawful rate, each Assignor and Lender
shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, (a) characterize
any non-principal payment as an expense, fee, or premium rather than as
interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c)
"spread" the total amount of interest throughout the entire term of the Loan
Agreement so that the interest rate is uniform throughout the entire term of the
Loan Agreement.

     7.6 ASSIGNMENT OF LENDER'S RIGHTS. Lender shall have the right to assign
all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to any subsequent holder
or holders of the Obligation.

     7.7 PARTIES IN INTEREST. As and when used herein, the term "Assignor" shall
mean and include each Assignor herein named and such Assignor's respective
successors and permitted assigns, and the term "Lender" shall mean and include
Lender herein named and its successors and assigns, and all covenants and
agreements herein shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each
Assignor and Lender and their respective assigns, provided that Assignor shall
have no right to assign his rights hereunder to any other Person.

     7.8 OBLIGATIONS ABSOLUTE. All rights and remedies of Lender hereunder, and
all obligations of Assignor hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional
irrespective of:

          (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Loan Agreement or
     any other Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating to
     any of the foregoing;

          (b) any change in the time, manner, or place of payment of, or in any
     other term of, all or any of the Obligation, or any other amendment or
     waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Loan Agreement or any
     other Loan Document; or

          (c) any other circumstance (other than payment in full and
     satisfaction of the Obligation) that might otherwise constitute a defense
     available to, or a discharge of, Assignor.

     7.9 APPLICABLE LAWS. THIS AGREEMENT AND ALL ISSUES AND CLAIMS ARISING IN
CONNECTION WITH OR RELATING TO THE OBLIGATION, INCLUDING BUT WITHOUT LIMITATION,
ALL CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY, OR OTHER CLAIMS OR COUNTERCLAIMS SHALL BE GOVERNED
AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS (WITHOUT
CONSIDERATION OF ITS CONFLICTS OF LAWS RULES) AND THE APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be
invalid or unenforceable, the validity and enforceability of the other
provisions of this Agreement shall remain unaffected.
