          (ii) the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing;

          (iii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;

          (iv) whether such Borrowing is to be a Term Borrowing or a Revolving
     Borrowing;

          (v) whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar
     Borrowing;

          (vi) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, the initial Interest
     Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by
     the definition of the term "Interest Period"; and

          (vii) the location and number of the Borrower's account to which funds
     are to be disbursed.

     If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested
Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with
respect to any requested Eurodollar Borrowing, then the applicable Borrower
shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period one month's duration.
Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this
Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details
thereof and of the amount of such Lender's Loan to be made as part of the
requested Borrowing.

     SECTION 2.05. Funding of Borrowings.

     (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the
proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00
noon, Houston time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently
designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative
Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrowers by promptly crediting the
amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrowers maintained
with the Administrative Agent in Houston and designated by the Borrowers in the
applicable Borrowing Request.

     (b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a
Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not
make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender's share of such
Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such
share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section
and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers a
corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share
of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the
applicable Lender and the Borrowers severally agree to pay to the Administrative
Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for
each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the
Borrowers to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at
(i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate
and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking
industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrowers,
the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to
the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender's Loan
included in such Borrowing.

     SECTION 2.06. Interest Elections.

     (a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the
applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall
have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request.
Thereafter, the Borrowers may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different
Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing,
may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The
Borrowers may elect different options with respect to different portions of the
affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably
among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans
comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.

     (b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrowers shall
notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a
Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrowers were
requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on
the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election
Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or
telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a
form set forth on Exhibit E attached hereto and signed by the applicable
Borrower.

                                       28

<PAGE>

     (c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the
following information in compliance with Section 2.03:

          (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and,
     if different options are being elected with respect to different portions
     thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing
     (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii)
     and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

          (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest
     Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

          (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a
     Eurodollar Borrowing; and

          (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the
     Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such
     election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the
     term "Interest Period."

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does
not specify an Interest Period, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to
have selected an Interest Period of one month's duration.

     (d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the
Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such
Lender's portion of each resulting Borrowing.

     (e) If the Borrowers fail to deliver a timely Interest Election Request
with respect to a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing prior to the end of the
Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as
provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be
converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent,
at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrowers, then, so long
as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be
converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each
Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the
Interest Period applicable thereto.

     SECTION 2.07. Termination and Reduction of Revolving Loan Commitments.

     (a) Unless previously terminated, the Revolving Loan Commitments shall
terminate on the Revolving Maturity Date.

     (b) The Borrowers may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce,
the Revolving Loan Commitments; provided that each reduction of the Revolving
Loan Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $250,000
and not less than $1,000,000.

                                       29

<PAGE>

     (c) The Borrowers shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to
terminate or reduce the Revolving Loan Commitments under paragraph (b) of this
Section at least five Business Days prior to the effective date of such
termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date
thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent
shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the
Borrowers pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable. Any termination or
reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction
of the Revolving Loan Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in
accordance with their respective Revolving Loan Commitments.

     SECTION 2.08. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

     (a) The Borrowers have executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent
for the benefit of each Lender in order to evidence the Term Loans made by such
Lender to the Borrowers under such Lender's Term Loan Commitment, Term Notes,
which are (i) in the principal amount of such Lender's applicable maximum Term
Loan Commitment and (ii) in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit F,
with the blanks appropriately filled. The outstanding principal balance of each
Term Note shall be payable in equal quarterly installments of principal in an
amount equal to $1,500,000 times the applicable Lender's pro rata share of the
aggregate Term Loans, with such payments to be due on May 1, 2003 and on the
first day of each August, November, February and May thereafter prior to the
Term Maturity Date. On the Term Maturity Date, the entire unpaid principal
balance of the Term Loans shall be due and payable.

     (b) Each Term Note shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount
thereof from time to time outstanding at the rate per annum determined as
specified in Section 2.11 payable on each Interest Payment Date and at maturity,
commencing with the first Interest Payment Date following the date of such Term
Note.

     (c) The Borrowers shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent for
each Lender a Revolving Note to evidence the Revolving Loans made by such Lender
to the Borrowers under such Lender's aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, which
shall be (i) in the principal amount of such Lender's Revolving Loan Commitment
and (ii) in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit G, with the blanks
appropriately filled. The outstanding principal balance of each Revolving Note
shall be payable on the Revolving Maturity Date.

     (d) Each Revolving Note shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount
thereof from time to time outstanding at the rate per annum determined as
specified in Section 2.11 payable on each Interest Payment Date and at maturity,
commencing with the first Interest Payment Date following the date of such
Revolving Note.

     SECTION 2.09. Prepayment of Loans.

     (a) The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to
prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance
with paragraph (d) of this Section; provided that such prepayment shall be in an
amount that is an integral multiple of $250,000 and not less than $1,000,000.

                                       30

<PAGE>

     (b) Concurrently with the delivery of each set of financial statements
pursuant to Section 5.01(a), commencing with the fiscal year ending January 31,
2003, the Borrowers shall prepay the outstanding Term Loans, in inverse order of
maturity, in an aggregate amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of Excess Cash
Flow, if any, as determined for the fiscal year then ended.

     (c) The Borrowers shall, on the date of receipt of Net Cash Proceeds by any
Loan Party from (A) the sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of any assets
of any such Person having a fair market value at the time of such sale, lease,
transfer or other disposition of $3,500,000 or more in the aggregate for all
such sales, leases, transfers or other dispositions of such Persons in any
fiscal year (other than pursuant to Sections 6.10, 6.12 and 6.13 or the
Receivables Purchase Agreement and, provided no Default or Event of Default
shall exist, excluding any Net Cash Proceeds applied within six months after
such sale, transfer or other disposition towards the acquisition by such Person
of assets (i) which have an aggregate fair market value at least equal to the
Net Cash Proceeds received from such disposition, (ii) which are pledged to the
Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 5.10 and no other Liens shall exist on
such assets and (iii) are of the same general type as such disposed assets), (B)
the sale or issuance by any such Person of any capital stock or other ownership
or profit interest (other than in respect of stock options or warrants currently
outstanding and identified in Schedule 3.15 or hereafter issued pursuant to any
stock option plan or other compensation arrangement approved by CAI's Board of
Directors), any securities converted into or exchangeable for capital stock or
other ownership or profit interest or any warrants, rights or options to acquire
capital stock or other ownership or profit interest, (C) any contribution to the
capital of any such Person (other than from a Loan Party to another Loan Party)
and (D) any Extraordinary Receipt received by or paid to or for the account of
any such Person, prepay an aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans, in
inverse order of maturity equal to 100% of the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) Borrowers shall not be required to prepay the
Term Loans by more than $5,000,000 from the proceeds realized from the IPO
Transaction and (ii) such prepayment of the Term Loans from the proceeds
realized from the IPO Transaction shall be applied pro rata to all of the
remaining principal installments payable on the Term Loans.

     (d) The Borrowers shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone
(confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder not later than 11:00 a.m.,
Houston time, five Business Days before the date of prepayment. Each such notice
shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal
amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid. Promptly following
receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of
the contents thereof. Each prepayment of a Revolving Borrowing shall be applied
ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Each prepayment of a
Term Borrowing shall be applied in the inverse order of maturity. All
prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest and, if the prepayment is
in respect of a Eurodollar Borrowing and is made on any day other than the last
day of the applicable Interest Period, such prepayment must be accompanied by
payment of all breakage costs and funding losses as provided for in Section
2.14.

     SECTION 2.10. Fees.

     (a) The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account
of each Lender a facility fee, which shall accrue at the Commitment Fee Rate on
the daily amount of the

                                       31

<PAGE>

unutilized portion of the Revolving Commitment of such Lender during the period
from and including the date hereof to but excluding the date on which such
Commitment terminates. Accrued facility fees shall be payable in arrears on the
last day of April, July, October and January of each year and on the date on
which the Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur
after the date hereof; provided that any facility fees accruing after the date
on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. All facility fees
shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for
the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the
last day).

     (b) The Borrowers agree to pay to the Arranger an underwriting fee, which
shall be payable at closing and payable in the amounts and at the times
separately agreed upon between the Borrowers and the Arranger.

     (c) The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own
account, administrative fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately
agreed upon between the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent.

     (d) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in
immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the Arranger, in
the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of facility fees
and participation fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under
any circumstances.

     SECTION 2.11. Interest.

     (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the
Alternate Base Rate.

     (b) The Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at
the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus the applicable LIBO Rate Margin for the Interest
Period in effect for such Borrowing.

     (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any
Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrowers hereunder is not paid
when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such
overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate
per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 3% plus the
rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs
of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 3% plus the rate
applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section.

     (d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each
Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon
termination of the Revolving Loan Commitments; provided that (i) interest
accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand,
(ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan, accrued interest
on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such
repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any
Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor,
accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such
conversion.

                                       32

<PAGE>

     (e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360
days, except that, interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at
times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed
on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each
case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first
day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate and LIBO
Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination
shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

     SECTION 2.12. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of
any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:

     (a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be
conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not
exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period; or

     (b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the
LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the
cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its
Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrowers and the
Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and,
until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers and the Lenders that the
circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest
Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or
continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective,
and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such
Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing; provided that if the circumstances
giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then the other
Type of Borrowings shall be permitted.

     SECTION 2.13. Increased Costs.

     (a) If any Change in Law shall:

          (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or
     similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of,
     or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement
     reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate); or

          (ii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other
     condition affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such
Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its
obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or to
reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder
(whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrowers will pay

                                       33

<PAGE>

to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender
for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

     (b) If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital
requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such
Lender's capital or on the capital of such Lender's holding company, if any, as
a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender to a level
below that which such Lender or such Lender's holding company could have
achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender's
policies and the policies of such Lender's holding company with respect to
capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrowers will pay to such Lender
such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such
Lender's holding company for any such reduction suffered.

     (c) A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary
to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as
specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the
Borrowers and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay
such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after
receipt thereof.

     (d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation
pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender's right to
demand such compensation.

     SECTION 2.14. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of
any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest
Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b)
the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest
Period applicable thereto, or (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or
prepay any Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto
then, in any such event, the Borrowers shall compensate each Lender for the
loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar
Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an
amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of
interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such
event not occurred, at LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan,
for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current
Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or
continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such
Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal
amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it
to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable
amount and period from other banks in the Eurodollar market. A certificate of
any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to
receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrowers and shall
be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender the
amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt
thereof.

     SECTION 2.15. Taxes.

     (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the
Borrowers hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for
any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrowers shall be
required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or

                                       34

<PAGE>

Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as
necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions
applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative
Agent or Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it
would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrowers shall
make such deductions and (iii) the Borrowers shall pay the full amount deducted
to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

     (b) In addition, the Borrowers shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

     (c) The Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender,
within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such
Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account
of any obligation of the Borrowers hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this
Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom
or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes
were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental
Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered
to the Borrowers by a Lender or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or
on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

     (d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other
Taxes by the Borrowers to a Governmental Authority, the Borrowers shall deliver
to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued
by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return
reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory
to the Administrative Agent.

     (e) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction
of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which any Borrower is
located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to
payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrowers (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such
properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or
reasonably requested by the Borrowers as will permit such payments to be made
without withholding or at a reduced rate.

     SECTION 2.16. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.

     (a) The Borrowers shall make each payment required to be made by it
hereunder (whether of principal, interest or fees, or of amounts payable under
Section 2.13, 2.14 or 2.15, or otherwise) prior to 12:00 noon, Houston time, on
the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or
counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the
discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the
next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All
such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 712
Main Street, Houston, Texas 77002. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any
such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the
appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment
hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment
shall be

                                       35

<PAGE>

extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment
accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such
extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars.

     (b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the
Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees
then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of
interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto
in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties,
and (ii) second, towards payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among
the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then
due to such parties.

     (c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim
or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any
of its Revolving or Term Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a
greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving or Term Loans and
accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then
the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face
value) participations in the Revolving or Term Loans of other Lenders to the
extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the
Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and
accrued interest on their respective Revolving and Term Loans; provided that (i)
if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment
giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the
purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and
(ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any
payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express
terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for
the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee
or participant, other than to Parent or to the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or
affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply).
The Borrowers consent to the foregoing and agree, to the extent it may
effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a
participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the
Borrowers rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation
as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrowers in the amount
of such participation.

     (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the
Borrowers prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative
Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrowers will not make
such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made
such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such
assumption, distribute to the Lender, the amount due. In such event, if the
Borrowers have not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally
agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so
distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and
including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of
payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds
Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance
with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

                                       36

<PAGE>

     (e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it
to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.05(b) or 2.16(d), then the
Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary
provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative

Subsidiaries are duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, has all requisite power and
authority to carry on its business as now conducted and, except where the

and is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is
required.

     SECTION 3.02. Authorization; Enforceability. The Transactions are within
the corporate powers of each Loan Party and have been duly authorized by all
necessary corporate and, if required, stockholder action. Each Loan Document to
which any Loan Party is a party has been duly executed and delivered by such
Person and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Person,
enforceable in accordance with its terms.

     SECTION 3.03. Governmental Approvals; No Conflicts. The Transactions (a) do
not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any
other action by, any Governmental Authority, except such as have been obtained
or made and are in full force and effect, (b) will not violate any applicable
law or regulation or the charter, by-laws or other organizational documents of
any Loan Party or any of their Subsidiaries or any order of any Governmental
Authority, (c) will not violate or result in a default under any indenture,
agreement or other instrument binding upon any Loan Party or any of their
Subsidiaries or its assets, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any
payment to be made by any Loan Party or any of their Subsidiaries, and (d)
except for Liens in favor of the Lenders created by the Loan Documents, will not
result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any asset of any Loan Party
or any of their Subsidiaries.

     (a) The Borrowers have heretofore furnished to the Administrative Agent the

year ended January 31, 2002 reported on by nationally recognized independent
public accountants, and (ii) as of and for the fiscal quarter ended October 31,

material property other than equity interests in and to CAI and such equity
interests shall not be subject to any Lien.

that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect.

     SECTION 3.06. Litigation and Environmental Matters.

     (a) There are no actions, suits or proceedings by or before any arbitrator
or Governmental Authority pending against or, to the knowledge of any Borrower,

     SECTION 3.07. Compliance with Laws and Agreements. Each Loan Party and each
of their Subsidiaries is in compliance with all laws, regulations and orders of
any Governmental Authority applicable to it or its property and all indentures,
agreements and other instruments binding upon it or its property, except where

     SECTION 3.11. Regulations G, U and X. None of the proceeds of any Loan will
be used for the purpose of purchasing or carrying, directly or indirectly, any
"margin stock" within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System ("margin stock"), or to extend credit to others for
the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin stock, or for any other purpose
which would constitute this transaction a "purpose credit" within the meaning of
said Regulation U, as now in effect or as the same may hereafter be in effect.
No Loan Party nor any of their Subsidiaries will take or permit any action which
would involve the Lenders in a violation of Regulation G, Regulation U,

case as now or hereafter in effect.

could result in a liability of any Loan Party or any of their Subsidiaries to
the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation. Each Loan Party and each of their
Subsidiaries have met all requirements with respect to funding the Plans imposed
by ERISA or the Code. Since the effective date of Title IV of ERISA, there have
not been any, nor are there now existing any, events or conditions that would
permit any Plan to be terminated under circumstances which would cause the lien
provided under Section 4068 of ERISA to attach to any property of any Loan Party
or any of their Subsidiaries The value of the Plans' benefits guaranteed under
Title IV of ERISA on the date hereof does not exceed the value of such Plans'
assets allocable to such benefits as of the date of this Agreement and shall not
be permitted to do so hereafter.

     SECTION 3.13. Disclosure. The Borrowers have disclosed to the Lenders all
agreements, instruments and corporate or other restrictions to which any Loan
Party or any of their Subsidiaries is subject, and all other matters known to
it, that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect. None of the reports, financial statements,
certificates or other information furnished by or on behalf of any Loan Party or
any of their Subsidiaries to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in
connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or delivered hereunder or in
connection herewith (as modified or supplemented by other information so
furnished) contains any material misstatement of fact or omits to state any
material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. All estimates,
projections and pro forma financial information contained in materials hereafter
delivered to the Administrative Agent by or on behalf of any Loan Party or any
of their Subsidiaries will be based upon assumptions believed by such Persons to
be reasonable as of the date of the preparation of the same. Nothing in this
Section 3.13 shall be construed as a representation, warranty or covenant that
any of such estimates, projections or pro forma financial information shall in
fact be achieved.

     (b) Each Borrower will, and will cause the other Loan Parties and each of
their Subsidiaries to, promptly pay all income, franchise and other taxes owing
by the applicable Person and any stamp taxes or other taxes which may be
required to be paid with respect to the Notes, the Security Documents or any
other Loan Documents. In the event of the enactment after this date of any law
of any Governmental Authority applicable to the Administrative Agent or the
Lenders, the Mortgaged Property or the Loan Documents, deducting from the value
of property for the purpose of taxation any lien or security interest thereon,
or imposing upon the Administrative Agent or any Lender the payment of the whole
or any part of the taxes or assessments or charges or Liens required by the Loan
Documents to be paid by any Loan Party, or changing in any way the laws relating
to the taxation of deeds of trust or mortgages or security agreements or debts
secured by deeds of trust or mortgages or security agreements or the interest of
the mortgagee or secured party in the property covered thereby, or the manner of
collection of such taxes, so as to affect the Security Documents or the
indebtedness secured thereby or any Administrative Agent or any Lender, then,
and in any such event each Borrower will, upon demand by the Administrative
Agent, pay such taxes, assessments, charges or Liens, or reimburse the
Administrative Agent or the Lenders therefor to the extent permitted by
applicable law.

     SECTION 5.05. Maintenance of Properties; Insurance.

     (a) Each Borrower will, and will cause the other Loan Parties and each of
their Subsidiaries to, (i) keep and maintain its property in good working order
and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and (ii) maintain, with
financially sound and reputable insurance companies, insurance in such amounts
and against such risks as are customarily maintained by companies engaged in the
same or similar businesses operating in the same or similar locations, and
furnish to the Administrative Agent, together with each delivery of financial
statements under Section 5.01(a), an Officer's Certificate containing full
information as to the insurance carried.

     (b) With respect to Mortgaged Property constituting real property, each
Borrower will maintain and cause the other Loan Parties and each of their
Subsidiaries to maintain the following insurance: (1) all-risk insurance with
respect to all such insurable Mortgaged Property, against loss or damage by
fire, lightning, windstorm, explosion, hail, tornado and such hazards as are
presently included in so-called "all-risk" coverage, in an amount not less than
the amount in effect on the date of this Agreement and disclosed to the
Administrative Agent in writing; (2) if and to the extent any portion of such
Mortgaged Property is in a special flood hazard area, a flood insurance policy
in an amount equal to the lesser of the principal face amount of the Notes or
the maximum amount of flood insurance available; and (3) statutory worker's
compensation insurance with respect to any work on or about such Mortgaged
Property. All insurance policies shall require not less than thirty (30) days'
prior written notice to the Administrative Agent of any cancellation or change
of coverage. All insurance policies maintained, or caused to be maintained, with
respect to such Mortgaged Property, except for public liability insurance, shall
provide that each such policy shall be primary without right of contribution
from any other insurance that may be carried by any Loan Party or any of their
Subsidiaries or the Lenders and

                                       48

<PAGE>

that all of the provisions thereof, except the limits of liability, shall
operate in the same manner as if there were a separate policy covering each
insured. If any insurer which has issued a policy of title, hazard, liability or
other insurance required pursuant to this Section or any other Loan Document to
which any Loan Party or any of their Subsidiaries is a party becomes insolvent
or the subject of any bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceeding or if in
the reasonable opinion the financial responsibility of such insurer is or
becomes inadequate, the Borrowers shall, or shall cause the applicable Person
to, in each instance promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent and
at Borrowers' expense, obtain and deliver to the Administrative Agent a like
policy (or, if and to the extent permitted by the Administrative Agent, a
certificate of insurance) issued by another insurer, which insurer and policy
meet the requirements of this Section or such other Loan Document, as the case
may be. Without limiting the discretion of the Administrative Agent with respect
to required endorsements to insurance policies, all such policies for loss of or
damage to such Mortgaged Property shall contain a standard mortgage clause
(without contribution) naming the Administrative Agent as mortgagee with loss
proceeds payable to the Administrative Agent notwithstanding (i) any act,
failure to act or negligence of or violation of any warranty, declaration or
condition contained in any such policy by any named insured; (ii) the occupation
or use of such Mortgaged Property for purposes more hazardous than permitted by
the terms of any such policy; (iii) any foreclosure or other action by the
Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents; or (iv) any change in title to or
ownership of such Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof, such proceeds to be
held for application as provided in the Loan Documents. The originals of each
initial insurance policy (or to the extent permitted by the Administrative
Agent, a copy of the original policy and a satisfactory certificate of
insurance) shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent at the time of
execution of this Agreement, with premiums fully paid, and each renewal or
substitute policy (or certificate) shall be delivered to the Administrative
Agent with premiums fully paid, at least ten (10) days before the termination of
the policy it renews or replaces. Each Borrower shall pay, and cause the other
Loan Parties and each of their Subsidiaries to pay, all premiums on policies
required hereunder as they become due and payable and promptly deliver to the
Administrative Agent evidence satisfactory to the Administrative Agent of the
timely payment thereof. If any loss occurs at any time when any Loan Party or
any of their Subsidiaries has failed to perform the covenants and agreements in
this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall nevertheless be entitled to the
benefit of all insurance covering the loss and held by or for the applicable
Person, to the same extent as if it had been made payable to the Administrative
Agent or the Administrative Agent.

     SECTION 5.06. Books and Records; Inspection Rights. Each Borrower will, and
will cause the other Loan Parties and each of their Subsidiaries to, keep proper
books of record and account in which full, true and correct entries are made of
all dealings and transactions in relation to its business and activities. Each
Borrower will, and will cause the other Loan Parties and each of their
Subsidiaries to, permit any representatives designated by the Administrative
Agent or any Lender, upon reasonable prior notice, to visit and inspect its
properties, to examine and make extracts from its books and records, and to
discuss its affairs, finances and condition with its officers and independent
accountants, all at such reasonable times and as often as reasonably requested.

     SECTION 5.07. Compliance with Laws. Each Borrower will, and will cause the
other Loan Parties and each of their Subsidiaries to, comply with all laws,
rules, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority applicable to it or
its property.

                                       49

<PAGE>

     SECTION 5.08. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Revolving Loans will be
used only for general corporate purposes, including working capital and capital
expenditures. No part of the proceeds of any Loan will be used, whether directly
or indirectly, for any purpose that entails a violation of any of the
Regulations of the Board, including Regulations G, U and X.

     SECTION 5.09. ERISA. Each Borrower will, and will cause the other Loan
Parties and each of their Subsidiaries to, at all times:

     (a) Make contributions to each Plan in a timely manner and in an amount
sufficient to comply with the minimum funding standards requirements of ERISA;

     (b) Immediately upon acquiring knowledge of any "reportable event" or of
any "prohibited transaction" (as such terms are defined in the Code) in
connection with any Plan, furnish the Administrative Agent with a statement
executed by the president or chief financial officer of CAI setting forth the
details thereof and the action which the Borrowers propose to take with respect
thereto and, when known, any action taken by the Internal Revenue Service with
respect thereto;

     (c) Notify the Administrative Agent promptly upon receipt by any Loan Party
or any of their Subsidiaries of any notice of the institution of any proceeding
or other action which may result in the termination of any Plan and furnish to
the Administrative Agent copies of such notice;

     (d) Acquire and maintain in amounts satisfactory to the Lenders from either
the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation or authorized private insurers, when
available, the contingent employer liability coverage insurance required under
ERISA;

     (e) Furnish the Administrative Agent with copies of the annual report for
each Plan filed with the Internal Revenue Service not later than thirty (30)
days after such report has been filed; and

     (f) Furnish the Administrative Agent with copies of any request for waiver
of the funding standards or extension of the amortization periods required by
Sections 303 and 304 of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code promptly after the
request is submitted to the Secretary of the Treasury, the Department of Labor
or the Internal Revenue Service, as the case may be.

     SECTION 5.10. Security and Further Assurances. Whenever and as often as the
Administrative Agent may reasonably request, each Borrower will, and will cause
the other Loan Parties and each of their Subsidiaries to, at its own expense,
promptly execute and deliver all such further instruments (including, without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, additional security agreements, and
financing statements) and do such other acts as the Administrative Agent may
request for the purpose of protecting or perfecting any Lien created or granted
or intended to be created or granted in the Security Documents or in order to
insure that any such Lien is of first priority, subject only to Liens permitted
by Section 6.02 hereof, or in order to police or protect any Collateral or
otherwise to carry out more effectually the purposes and intent of the Loan
Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrowers will, as

                                       50

<PAGE>

soon as practicable after the date hereof, cause to be duly recorded, published,
registered and filed all Security Documents, in such manner and in such places
as is required by law to establish, perfect, preserve and protect the rights and
first priority security interests of the parties thereto and their respective
successors and assigns in all of the Collateral, subject to Liens permitted
under Section 6.02. Borrowers will pay all taxes, fees and other charges then
due in connection with the execution, delivery, recording, publishing,
registration and filing of such documents or instruments in such places.

     SECTION 5.11. Compliance with Environmental Laws. Each Borrower will, and
will cause the other Loan Parties and each of their Subsidiaries to, at all
times:

     (a) use and operate all of their respective facilities and properties in
material compliance with all Environmental Laws, keep all necessary permits,
approvals, orders, certificates, licenses and other authorizations relating to
environmental matters in effect and remain in material compliance therewith,
handle all Hazardous Materials in material compliance with all applicable
Environmental Laws and dispose of all Hazardous Materials generated by any such
Person or at any property owned or leased by them at facilities or with carriers
that maintain valid permits, approvals, certificates, licenses or other
authorizations for such disposal under applicable Environmental Laws;

     (b) promptly notify the Administrative Agent and provide copies upon
receipt of all written claims, complaints, notices or inquiries relating to the
environmental condition of the facilities and properties of any such Person or
their respective compliance with Environmental Laws; and

     (c) promptly upon request by Administrative Agent, permit any Person
designated by the Administrative Agent, at the Borrowers' expense and upon
reasonable notice, to visit such Person and any of their respective properties
and discuss their respective environmental affairs with their principal
officers, all at such times as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request,
and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, permit any Person, agent
or environmental consultant designated by the Administrative Agent upon
reasonable notice, and at the Borrowers' expense, to (i) have access to and
examine and inspect any of the properties, books and records of such Person, and
(ii) conduct environmental assessments in respect of such properties, in scope

similar to the Pledge and Security Agreements, with such

                                       51

<PAGE>

changes as shall be necessary in the circumstances, pursuant to which all of the

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section, none of Conn
Funding I LP, Conn Funding II LP, Conn Funding LLC, Conn Funding II GP LLC, Conn

that any applicable landlord or lessor has failed or refused to grant its
consent to such a leasehold mortgage or lien notwithstanding good faith efforts
by Borrower to obtain such consent, Administrative Agent may, in its discretion,
waive of the requirement for a leasehold mortgages or deeds of trust covering

its agent and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its
behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent
by the terms hereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably
incidental thereto.

     The bank serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same
rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may
exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and such bank
and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage
in any kind of business with the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or other affiliate
thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder.

     The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except

whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent
shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any
discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly
contemplated hereby that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in
writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the

9.02), and (c) except as expressly set forth herein, the Administrative Agent
shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to
disclose, any information relating to the Loan Parties or any of their
Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as
Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The
Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it
with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number
or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as
provided in Section 9.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or
willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have
knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the
Administrative Agent by the Borrowers or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent
shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i)
any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this
Agreement, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document
delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, (iii) the performance or
observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set

     The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not
incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent,
statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine
and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent
also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed
by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for
relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who
may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts
selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it
in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

     The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise
its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the
Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may
perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their
respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding
paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the
Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective
activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided
for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

     Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative
Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any
time by notifying the Lenders and the Borrowers. Upon any such resignation, the
Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrowers, to
appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been

                                       65

<PAGE>

so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment
within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its
resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the
Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an
office in Houston, Texas, or an affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance
of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such
successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers,
privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring
Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations
hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent
shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed
between the Borrowers and such successor. After the Administrative Agent's
resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03 shall
continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its
sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken
or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative
Agent.

     SECTION 8.01. INDEMNIFICATION. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY
HEREIN CONTAINED, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT SHALL BE FULLY JUSTIFIED IN FAILING
OR REFUSING TO TAKE ANY ACTION HEREUNDER UNLESS IT SHALL FIRST BE INDEMNIFIED TO
ITS SATISFACTION BY THE LENDERS AGAINST ANY AND ALL LIABILITIES, OBLIGATIONS,
LOSSES, DAMAGES, PENALTIES, ACTIONS, JUDGMENTS, SUITS, COSTS, EXPENSES, AND
DISBURSEMENTS OF ANY KIND OR NATURE WHATSOEVER WHICH MAY BE IMPOSED ON, INCURRED
BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT IN ANY WAY RELATING TO OR
ARISING OUT OF ITS TAKING OR CONTINUING TO TAKE ANY ACTION OR ITS REFRAINING TO
TAKE ANY ACTION. EACH LENDER AGREES TO INDEMNIFY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT (TO
THE EXTENT NOT REIMBURSED BY THE BORROWERS OR ANY SUBSIDIARY), ACCORDING TO SUCH
LENDER'S COMMITMENTS, FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL LIABILITIES, OBLIGATIONS,
LOSSES, DAMAGES, PENALTIES, ACTIONS, JUDGMENTS, SUITS, COSTS, EXPENSES, AND
DISBURSEMENTS OF ANY KIND OR NATURE WHATSOEVER WHICH MAY BE IMPOSED ON, INCURRED
BY, OR ASSERTED AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT IN ANY WAY RELATING TO OR
ARISING OUT OF ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR ANY ACTION TAKEN OR OMITTED BY THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT; PROVIDED THAT NO LENDER SHALL BE
LIABLE FOR ANY PORTION OF SUCH LIABILITIES, OBLIGATIONS, LOSSES, DAMAGES,
PENALTIES, ACTIONS, JUDGMENTS, SUITS, COSTS, EXPENSES, OR DISBURSEMENTS
RESULTING FROM THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILFUL MISCONDUCT OF THE PERSON BEING
INDEMNIFIED; AND PROVIDED FURTHER THAT IT IS THE INTENTION OF EACH LENDER TO
INDEMNIFY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AGAINST THE CONSEQUENCES OF THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT'S OWN NEGLIGENCE, WHETHER SUCH NEGLIGENCE BE SOLE, JOINT,
CONCURRENT, ACTIVE OR PASSIVE. WITHOUT LIMITATION OF THE FOREGOING, EACH LENDER
AGREES TO REIMBURSE THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PROMPTLY UPON DEMAND FOR ITS PRO
RATA PERCENTAGE OF ANY OUT-OF-POCKET EXPENSES (INCLUDING ATTORNEYS' FEES)
INCURRED BY THE

                                       66

<PAGE>

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT IN CONNECTION WITH THE PREPARATION, ADMINISTRATION, OR
ENFORCEMENT OF, OR LEGAL ADVICE IN RESPECT OF RIGHTS OR RESPONSIBILITIES UNDER,
ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, TO THE EXTENT THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT IS NOT REIMBURSED
FOR SUCH EXPENSES BY THE BORROWERS.

     Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance
upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents
and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and
decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it
will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any
other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time
to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not
taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any related agreement or any
document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

                                   ARTICLE IX
                                 Miscellaneous

     SECTION 9.01. Notices. Except in the case of notices and other
communications expressly permitted to be given by telephone, all notices and
other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be
delivered by hand or overnight courier service, mailed by certified or
registered mail or sent by telecopy, as follows:

     (a) if to the Borrowers, to Conn Appliances, Inc., Attention of Thomas J.
Frank (Telecopy No. (409) 832-4967);

     (b) if to the Administrative Agent, to JPMorgan Chase Bank, Attention of
Lindsey Whyte (Telecopy No. (713) 216-6004);

     (c) if to any other Lender, to it at its address (or telecopy number) set
forth in its Administrative Questionnaire.

Any party hereto may change its address or telecopy number for notices and other
communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. All notices and
other communications given to any party hereto in accordance with the provisions
of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given on the date of receipt.

     SECTION 9.02. Waivers; Amendments.

     (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in
exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor
shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any
abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power,
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, and the
Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies
that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or
consent to any departure by the Borrowers therefrom shall in any event be
effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of

                                       67

<PAGE>

this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the
specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a
waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any
Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

     (b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended
or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered
into by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders or by the Borrowers and the
Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no
such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the
written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or
reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder,
without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iii) postpone the
scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan, or any interest
thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse
any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any
Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iv)
change Section 2.16 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of
payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, (v)
except in connection with a sale, transfer or other disposition permitted
hereby, release any Collateral, (vi) release of Guarantor from its obligations,
or (vii) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of
"Required Lenders" or any other provision hereof specifying the number or
percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or
make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written
consent of each Lender; provided further that no such agreement shall amend,
modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent,
without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

     SECTION 9.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

     (a) The Borrowers shall pay (i) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the
Administrative Agent and its affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges
and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent, in connection with
the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation
and administration of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any
amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof
(whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be
consummated), (ii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative
Agent or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any
counsel for the Administrative Agent or any Lender, in connection with the
enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, including its rights under this Section, or in connection
with the Loans made, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during
any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans.

     (b) The Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, and each
Lender, and each related party of any of the foregoing persons (each such person
being called an "Indemnitee") against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from,
any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including
the fees, charges and disbursements of

                                       68

<PAGE>

any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any indemnitee
arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of:

          (i) the execution or delivery of this agreement or any agreement or
     instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of
     their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the
     transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby,

          (ii) any Loan or the use of the proceeds therefrom,

          (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials
     on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrowers or any of their
     Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the
     Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries,

          (iv) any transaction, act, omission, event or circumstance in any way
     connected with the Mortgaged Property or with the Security Documents,
     including but not limited to any bodily injury or death or property damage
     occurring in or upon or in the vicinity of the Mortgaged Property through
     any cause whatsoever any act performed or omitted to be performed
     hereunder, any breach by any Loan Party of any representation, warranty,
     covenant, agreement or condition contained in the Security Documents, any
     default as defined herein, and any claim under or with respect to any Lease
     (as defined in the Mortgages).

          (v) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or
     proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract,
     tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a
     party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any
     Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages,
     liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent
     jurisdiction by final and non appealable judgment to have resulted from the
     gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

     (c) To the extent that any Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be
paid by it to the Administrative Agent, under paragraph (a) or (b) of this
Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent such
Lender's per rata percentage of such unpaid amount in accordance with Section
8.01.

     (d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrowers shall not
assert, and hereby waive, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of
liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed
to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result
of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the
Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.

     (e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than 15
days after written demand therefor.

     SECTION 9.04. Successors and Assigns.

     (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns
permitted hereby, except that no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any
of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each
Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Borrower without such
consent shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or
implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties
hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the
extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or
claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

     (b) Any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its
rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its
Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that (i) except in
the case of an assignment to a Lender or an affiliate of a Lender, each of the
Borrowers and the Administrative Agent must give their prior written consent to
such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), (ii) except
in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an affiliate of a Lender or an
assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender's Commitment,
the amount of the Commitment of the assigning Lender subject to each such
assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect
to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less
than $5,000,000 unless the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent otherwise
consent, (iii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a
proportionate part of all the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under
this Agreement, (iv) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to
the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with (except in
the case of an assignment to a Lender or an affiliate of a Lender) a processing
and recordation fee of $3,500, and (v) the assignee, if it shall not be a
Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative
Questionnaire; and provided further that any consent of the Borrowers otherwise
required under this paragraph shall not be required if an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant
to paragraph (d) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in
each Assignment and Acceptance the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto
and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance,
have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the
assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by
such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this
Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the
assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender
shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the
benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a
Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with
this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such
Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with
paragraph (e) of this Section.

     (c) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the
Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices in Houston, Texas a copy of each
Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of
the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal
amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the

                                       70

<PAGE>

terms hereof from time to time (the "Register"). The entries in the Register
shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, and the
Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to
the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement,
notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for
inspection by the Borrowers, and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from
time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

     (d) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed
by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee's completed Administrative
Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the
processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and
any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this
Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance
and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment
shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in
the Register as provided in this paragraph.

     (e) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrowers or the
Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities
(a "Participant") in all or a portion of such Lender's rights and obligations
under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans
owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement
shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the
other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the
Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, and the other Lenders shall continue to
deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's
rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument
pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such
Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any
amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided
that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without
the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver
described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant.
Subject to paragraph (f) of this Section, the Borrowers agree that each
Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 to
the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by
assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by
law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as
though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to
Section 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender.

     (f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment
under Section 2.15 or 2.17 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled
to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless
the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrowers'
prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a
Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17 unless the
Borrowers are notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such
Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Section
2.17(e) as though it were a Lender.

     (g) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all
or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such
Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal
Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not

                                       71

<PAGE>

apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no
such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any
of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such
Lender as a party hereto.

     SECTION 9.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and
warranties made by the Borrowers herein and in the certificates or other
instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be
considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall
survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans
regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf
and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had
notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at
the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and
effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any
fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid
and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of
Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in
full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, and the Commitments or the
termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

     SECTION 9.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may
be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different
counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when
taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and any
separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative
Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject
matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings,
oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall
become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent
and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which,
when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto,
and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties
hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed
counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective
as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

     SECTION 9.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of
the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in
a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other
jurisdiction.

     SECTION 9.08. Right of Set-off. If an Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing, each Lender and each of its affiliates is hereby authorized
at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to
set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand,
provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing
by such Lender or affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower
against any of and all the obligations of the Borrowers now or hereafter
existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or
not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although
such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each

                                       72

<PAGE>

Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies
(including other rights of set-off) which such Lender may have.

     SECTION 9.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.

     (a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY
THE LAW OF THE STATE OF TEXAS.

     (b) EACH BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR
ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE DISTRICT COURT

CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR

RIGHT THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, OR ANY LENDER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING
ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AGAINST ANY BORROWER OR ITS
PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.

     (c) EACH BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE
FULLEST EXTENT IT MAY LEGALLY AND EFFECTIVELY DO SO, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY
NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING
ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN
PARAGRAPH (B) OF THIS SECTION. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY
WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT
FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT.

     (d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process
in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in this Agreement
will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any
other manner permitted by law.

     SECTION 9.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE
FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY

                                       73

<PAGE>

BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES
THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED,
EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF
LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT
AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY,
AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

     SECTION 9.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of
Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this
Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into
consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

     SECTION 9.12. Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any Borrower makes a
payment or payments to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or the
Administrative Agent or any Lender enforces any security interest or exercises
its right of set-off, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such
enforcement or set-off or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated,
declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be
repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any debtor law or
equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part
thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all rights and remedies

the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together
with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such
Loan under applicable law (collectively, the "Charges"), shall exceed the
maximum lawful rate (the "Highest Lawful Rate") which may be contracted for,
charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in
accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such
Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be
limited to the Highest Lawful Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and
Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not
payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the
interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods
shall be increased (but not above the Highest Lawful Rate therefor) until such
cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective

                              LANDLORD'S AGREEMENT

          The undersigned, as lessor ("Lessor"), has entered into a lease (such
lease, including all amendments, modifications, renewals, and extensions
thereto, being hereinafter referred to as the "Lease"), with
                                         , as lessee ("Lessee"), with respect to
-----------------------------------------
the real property more particularly described on Exhibit "A" annexed hereto and
made a part hereof (the "Real Estate"). A true and complete copy of the Lease is
annexed hereto as Exhibit "B". The premises leased to Lessee by the Lease are
all or part of the Real Estate and are more particularly described in the Lease
(the "Premises").

          Lessor has been informed that JPMorgan Chase Bank, individually and as
Administrative Agent (the "Agent"), and the other financial institutions listed
on the signature pages of the Credit Agreement (as hereinafter defined) (the
Agent and all the foregoing, are collectively the "Lenders") are providing
certain loans to Lessee or to an affiliate of Lessee. In connection with such
financing, Lessee intends to grant to Lenders (i) a first leasehold deed of
trust or mortgage (the "Leasehold Mortgage") on Lessee's interest in the Lease
and (ii) a security interest (the "Security Interest") in and to Lessee's
interest in the property more particularly described in Exhibit "C" annexed
hereto and made a part hereof (all of such property being hereinafter
collectively referred to as the "Collateral"), pursuant (i) to a Credit
Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") among Conn Appliances, Inc. and certain of
its affiliates and Lenders, (ii) to various security agreements and pledge
agreements such as the one contained in the Leasehold Mortgage, and (iii) to
certain financing statements and other documents filed in connection therewith
((i), (ii), and (iii) collectively the "Loan Documents"). Lessor has also been
informed that owners of a majority of the issued and outstanding equity
interests in and to Lessee (the "Equity Interests") have pledged or will pledge
such Equity Interests as security for the above referenced financings.

          For Ten Dollars ($10.00) and other good and valuable consideration,
the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Lessor and Lessee
hereby represent, warrant, and agree, for the benefit of Lenders, as follows:

     1. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in the Lease, Lessor
hereby consents (i) to pledge of the Equity Interests, (ii) to the grant of the
Leasehold Mortgage on Lessee's interest in the Lease to the Agent for the
benefit of the Lenders (or to a trustee for the benefit of the Agent for the
benefit of the Lenders), and (iii) to the grant of the Security Interest in the
Collateral pursuant to the Loan Documents. Lessor hereby further consents to the
(x) recording of the Leasehold Mortgage against the Real Estate and (y) filing
of any and all financing statements or other documents executed by Lessee and
required or permitted under the Uniform Commercial Code of the State in which
the Real Estate is located in order to perfect the Leasehold Mortgage on
Lessee's interest in the Lease and the Security Interest in the Collateral. In
connection therewith, Lessor agrees to execute a memorandum or short form of the
Lease in recordable form and in such form as is reasonably required by Lenders
and is reasonably acceptable to Lessor.

     2. Lessor and Lessee hereby agree as follows:

                                   EXHIBIT C

<PAGE>

          (a) promptly upon default by Lessee under the Lease, Lessor shall give
to the Agent written notice of such default at the following address (or at such
alternative address as the Agent may have given Lessor by prior written notice):

              JPMorgan Chase Bank
              712 Main Street
              Houston, Texas 77002
              Attn:
                   ----------------------

          (b) after receipt of the notice of default described in subsection
2(a) hereof, Lenders shall have the right to remedy any default of Lessee under
the Lease, or to cause any default of Lessee under the Lease to be remedied, and
for such purpose the undersigned hereby grants Lenders thirty (30) days for
remedying, or causing to be remedied, any such default which is a non-monetary
default, or such longer period of time as may be needed to complete such
remedying (provided that Lender has commenced to remedy such default within such
thirty (30) days and continues diligent prosecution of such remedying and
completes such remedying not later than ninety (90) days after receipt of the
notice described above), and fifteen (15) days to Lessee for remedying, or
causing to be remedied, any such default which is a monetary default. Those
defaults which, by their very nature, may not be cured by Lenders (as, for
example, the bankruptcy of Lessee) shall not constitute grounds of enforcement
of rights, recourses, or remedies under the Lease by Lessor, including
termination of the Lease, if the Agent assumes the obligations of Lessee under
the Lease and brings any deficiencies current within thirty (30) days after
written notice to the Agent by Lessor of the occurrence of such a default.
Lessor shall not exercise any remedies under the Lease on account of a default
by Lessee, until the applicable grace periods described in this subsection 2(b)
have expired;

          (c) Lessor shall accept performance by Lenders of any term, covenant,
condition or agreement to be performed by Lessee under the Lease with the same
force and effect as though performed by Lessee;

          (d) no material amendment, modification, waiver or consent in respect
of any of the provisions of the Lease shall be effective unless Agent shall have
joined in such amendment, modification, waiver or consent or shall have given
its prior consent thereto. An amendment, modification, waiver or consent shall
be deemed to be material if (i) it increases the rental or other sums due under
the Lease, (ii) it decreases the term of the Lease or (iii) it can otherwise
reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Agent or the
holders of the indebtedness secured by the Leasehold Mortgage. The failure to
obtain the consent of the Agent to any nonmaterial amendment, modification,
waiver or consent shall not affect in any manner the effectiveness of such
nonmaterial amendment, modification, waiver or consent as between Lessor and
Lessee, but the same shall not be effective against the Agent or any assignee of
the Agent permitted hereunder. Agent shall not unreasonably withhold its consent
to any amendment, modification, waiver or consent.

          (e) in the event of the termination of the Lease prior to the
expiration of its terms by reason of disaffirmance or rejection pursuant to any
bankruptcy law, the Agent shall have the option to obtain a new lease of the
Premises by giving notice to Lessor to such effect

                                    EXHIBIT C

                                        2

<PAGE>

within thirty (30) days after such termination, so long as all sums which would
have at that time been due under the Lease but for such termination shall have
been paid and all other defaults, if any, under the Lease shall have been cured,
which new lease shall be (1) effective as of the date of termination of the
Lease, (2) for the remainder of the original term of the Lease (plus any renewal
terms), and (3) at the same rent and upon all of the agreements, terms,
covenants and conditions thereof;

          (f) neither the Agent nor the designee or nominee of the Agent shall
become liable under the Lease unless and until the Agent or its designee or
nominee becomes, and then only for so long as the Agent or its designee or
nominee remains, the owner of the leasehold estate created thereby; and

          (g) Lenders or their trustee or designee shall have the right, without
Lessor's consent, (i) to foreclose the Leasehold Mortgage or to accept
assignment of Lessee's interest in the Lease in lieu of foreclosure of the
Leasehold Mortgage; and (ii) to foreclose on the Equity Interests or to accept
assignment or endorsement of the Equity Interests, in lieu of foreclosure, or to
otherwise realize on its Security Interest in some or all of the Collateral. In
the event Lenders or their designee or nominee acquire Lessee's interest in the
Lease, either as a purchaser at any foreclosure sale or by reason of the
assignment of the Lease in lieu of foreclosure, Lenders or their designee or
nominee, as the case may be, shall have the right further to assign the Lease
only pursuant to the terms of the Lease.

     3. All of the Collateral shall be and remain subject to the Leasehold
Mortgage and to the Security Interest until such time as the Leasehold Mortgage
and the Security Interest shall be released by the Agent.

     4. Lessor hereby agrees that any lien for rent or similar charges, whether
arising by operation of law or otherwise, whether now existing or hereafter to
arise, and each and every right which Lessor now has or hereafter may have,
either to levy or distrain upon the Collateral or to claim or assert title to
the Collateral, or make any other claim against the Collateral, whether under
the Lease or the laws of the State in which the Real Estate is located, or under
any other applicable Federal, State, municipal or local law, ordinance or
otherwise, or under any mortgage now in effect or hereafter executed, whether by
reason of a default under the Lease or otherwise, shall be subject and
subordinate in every respect to all of the terms, provisions and conditions of
the Leasehold Mortgage and the Loan Documents and to the Security Interest in
the Collateral. Lenders and their agents and legal representatives (i) may
remove any or all of the Collateral located at the Real Estate from the Real
Estate (a) whenever Lenders, in their sole discretion, believe such removal is
necessary to protect the Security Interest in the Collateral; or (b) whenever
Lenders seek to sell or foreclose upon the Collateral; (ii) subject to the terms
and provisions of the Lease, shall have access to the Real Estate, the Premises,
and the Collateral at all times. Further, Lenders agree to indemnify and hold
Lessor harmless from any and all claims, damages, actions and causes of actions,
and costs and expenses incurred by Lessor as a result of Lenders' access to the
Premises and the removal of the Collateral therefrom.

     5. Lessor hereby recognizes and acknowledges that any claim that Lenders
may now have or hereafter have against the Collateral is and at all times shall
be and shall be deemed to be

                                    EXHIBIT C

                                        3

<PAGE>

superior to any lien, security interest or claim of any kind or nature
whatsoever which Lessor now has or hereafter may have against the Collateral,
whether by statute, the Lease or otherwise.

     6. Lenders may, without affecting the validity of this Agreement, increase
the amount of, or extend the time of payment of, any indebtedness of Lessee to
Lenders or alter the performance of any of the terms and conditions of any
agreement between Lessee and Lenders, including, without limitation, the
Leasehold Mortgage and the Loan Documents, without the consent of, or notice to,
Lessor and without in any manner whatsoever impairing or affecting the Leasehold
Mortgage or the Security Interest in the Collateral.

     7. Lessor represents, warrants and agrees that, as of the date hereof (i)
the Lease is in full force and effect; (ii) a true and complete copy of the
Lease is annexed hereto as Exhibit "B"; (iii) the Lease has not been modified,
supplemented or amended in any way whatsoever except as indicated herein or in
Exhibit "B"; (iv)(a) the monthly rent presently payable under the terms of the
Lease is $               and (b) no rent or other amounts payable by Lessee in
           -------------
addition to the base or fixed monthly rent (including, without limitation,
taxes, maintenance, operating expenses or otherwise) payable under the terms of
the Lease have been paid in since the Lease has not commenced; (v) Lessor has
not delivered or received any notices of default under the Lease and there are
no defaults under the Lease and no event has occurred which, with the giving of
notice or the lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default under the
Lease; (vi) no security deposit is presently held by Lessor under the Lease;
(vii) Lessor has obtained all the consents or approvals of any party necessary
or desirable to effectuate the terms of this Agreement; and (vii) to the best of
Lessor's knowledge, no mortgagee or holder of a lien on the Real Estate has any
security interest in the Collateral owned by Lessee now located or hereafter to
be located on any portion of the Premises.

     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned (collectively, the "Borrowers"), HEREBY
PROMISE TO PAY to the order of                             (the "Lender") the
                               ---------------------------
principal         sum of                             Dollars

($                      ) or the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans

made to each of the several Borrowers pursuant to this Term Note and outstanding
as of the maturity hereof, whichever is lesser, in accordance with the terms and
provisions of that certain Credit Agreement dated as of                     ,
                                                        --------------------
2003, by and among the Borrowers, the Lender, Bank of America, N.A.,
individually and as Documentation Agent, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, as
Administrative Agent (the "Agent") for itself and the other banks or financial
institutions (collectively, the "Lenders") that may hereafter become a party to
the hereinafter defined Credit Agreement (such agreement, together with any and
all amendments and modifications thereof, being hereinafter referred to as the
"Credit Agreement"; capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined
herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Credit Agreement).

     The obligations of the Borrowers hereunder shall be joint and several.

     The outstanding principal balance of this Term Note shall be due and
payable in installments as provided in the Credit Agreement. Each Borrower
promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal balance of this Term Note from
the date of any Term Loan evidenced by this Term Note until the principal
balance hereof is paid in full. Interest shall accrue on the outstanding
principal balance of this Term Note from and including the date of any Term Loan
evidenced by this Term Note to but not including the Maturity Date at the rate
or rates, and shall be due and payable on the dates, set forth in the Credit
Agreement. Any amount not paid when due with respect to principal (whether at
stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), costs or expenses, or, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, interest, shall bear interest from the date
when due to and excluding the date the same is paid in full, payable on demand,
at the rate provided for in Section 2.11(c) of the Credit Agreement.

     Payments of principal and interest, and all amounts due with respect to
costs and expenses, shall be made in lawful money of the United States of
America in immediately available funds, without deduction, set-off or
counterclaim to the Agent for the account of the Lender not later than 10:00
a.m. (Houston time) on the dates on which such payments shall become due
pursuant to the terms and provisions set forth in the Credit Agreement.

     If any payment of principal or interest on this Term Note shall become due
on a Saturday, Sunday, or public holiday on which the Lender is not open for
business, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and
such extension of time shall in such case be included in computing interest in
connection with such payment.

                                    EXHIBIT F

<PAGE>

     In addition to all principal and accrued interest on this Term Note, each
Borrower agrees to pay (a) all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by all
owners and holders of this Term Note in collecting this Term Note through any
probate, reorganization, bankruptcy or any other proceeding and (b) reasonable
attorneys' fees when and if this Term Note is placed in the hands of an attorney
for collection after default.

     All agreements between the Borrowers, the Lenders or the Agent whether now
existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral, are hereby expressly
limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of
demand being made on this Term Note or otherwise, shall the amount paid, or
agreed to be paid, to the Lenders or the Agent for the use, forbearance, or
detention of the money to be loaned under the Credit Agreement and evidenced by
this Term Note or otherwise or for the payment or performance of any covenant or
obligation contained in the Credit Agreement, this Term Note or in any other
Loan Document exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. If, as a result of any
circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any of such
documents, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve
transcending the limit of validity prescribed by applicable usury law, then,
ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such
validity, and if, from any such circumstance, the Lender shall ever receive
interest or anything which might be deemed interest under applicable law which
would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, such amount which would be excessive
interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal amount owing on
account of this Term Note or the amounts owing on other obligations of the
Borrowers to the Lenders and the Agent under any Loan Document and not to the
payment of interest, or if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid principal
balance of this Term Note and the amounts owing on other obligations of the
Borrowers to the Lenders or the Agent under any Loan Documents, as the case may
be, such excess shall be refunded to the Borrowers. In determining whether or
not the interest paid or payable under any specific contingencies exceeds the
Highest Lawful Rate, each applicable Borrower and the Lender shall, to the
maximum extent permitted under applicable law, (a) characterize any nonprincipal
payment as an expense, fee or premium rather than as interest; (b) exclude
voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof; and (c) amortize, prorate,
allocate and spread, during the period of the full stated term of this Term
Note, all interest at any time contracted for, charged, received or reserved in
connection with the indebtedness evidenced by this Term Note.

     This Term Note is one of the Notes provided for in, and is entitled to the
benefits of the Credit Agreement, which Credit Agreement, among other things,
contains provisions for acceleration of the maturity hereof upon the happening
of certain stated events, for prepayments on account of principal hereof prior
to the maturity hereof upon the terms and conditions and with the effect therein
specified, and provisions to the effect that no provision of the Credit
Agreement or this Term Note shall require the payment or permit the collection
of interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate. The obligations of the
Borrowers hereunder are secured by the Security Documents executed by the
respective Borrowers and the other Loan Parties.

     Except as otherwise specifically provided for in the Credit Agreement, each
Borrower and any and all endorsers, guarantors and sureties severally waive
grace, demand, presentment

of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration and diligence in collecting and

or partial payments hereon, with or without notice, before or after maturity.

     THIS TERM NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE
LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS AND APPLICABLE FEDERAL LAW.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each Borrower has caused this Term Note to be executed
and delivered by its officer thereunto duly authorized effective as of the date
first above written.

     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned (collectively, the "Borrowers"), HEREBY
PROMISE TO PAY to the order of                                          (the
                               -----------------------------------------
"Lender") the principal sum of                                          Dollars
                               ----------------------------------------
($                      ), or the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans
  ----------------------
made to each of the several Borrowers pursuant to this Revolving Note and
outstanding as of the maturity hereof, whichever is lesser, in accordance with
the terms and provisions of that certain Credit Agreement dated as
of                        , 2003, by and among the Borrowers, the Lender, Bank
   -----------------------
of America, N.A., individually and as Documentation Agent, and JPMorgan Chase
Bank, as Administrative Agent (the "Agent") for itself and the other banks or
financial institutions (collectively, the "Lenders") that may hereafter become a
party to the hereinafter defined Credit Agreement (such agreement, together with
any and all amendments and modifications thereof, being hereinafter referred to
as the "Credit Agreement"; capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Credit
Agreement).

     The obligations of the Borrowers hereunder shall be joint and several.

     The outstanding principal balance of this Revolving Note shall be due and
payable as provided in the Credit Agreement. Each Borrower promises to pay
interest on the unpaid principal balance of this Revolving Note from the date of
any Revolving Loan evidenced by this Revolving Note until the principal balance
hereof is paid in full. Interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal
balance of this Revolving Note from and including the date of any Revolving Loan
evidenced by this Revolving Note to but not including the Maturity Date at the
rate or rates, and shall be due and payable on the dates, set forth in the
Credit Agreement. Any amount not paid when due with respect to principal
(whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), costs or expenses,
or, to the extent permitted by applicable law, interest, shall bear interest
from the date when due to and excluding the date the same is paid in full,
payable on demand, at the rate provided for in Section 2.11(c) of the Credit
Agreement.

     Payments of principal and interest, and all amounts due with respect to
costs and expenses, shall be made in lawful money of the United States of
America in immediately available funds, without deduction, set-off or
counterclaim to the Agent for the account of the Lender not later than 10:00
a.m. (Houston time) on the dates on which such payments shall become due
pursuant to the terms and provisions set forth in the Credit Agreement.

     If any payment of principal or interest on this Revolving Note shall become
due on a Saturday, Sunday, or public holiday on which the Lender is not open for
business, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and
such extension of time shall in such case be included in computing interest in
connection with such payment.

                                    EXHIBIT G

<PAGE>

     In addition to all principal and accrued interest on this Revolving Note,
each Borrower agrees to pay (a) all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by
all owners and holders of this Revolving Note in collecting this Revolving Note
through any probate, reorganization, bankruptcy or any other proceeding and (b)
reasonable attorneys' fees when and if this Revolving Note is placed in the
hands of an attorney for collection after default.

     All agreements between the Borrowers, the Lenders or the Agent whether now
existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral, are hereby expressly
limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of
demand being made on this Revolving Note or otherwise, shall the amount paid, or
agreed to be paid, to the Lenders or the Agent for the use, forbearance, or
detention of the money to be loaned under the Credit Agreement and evidenced by
this Revolving Note or otherwise or for the payment or performance of any
covenant or obligation contained in the Credit Agreement, this Revolving Note or
in any other Loan Document exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. If, as a result of
any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any of
such documents, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall
involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by applicable usury law,
then, ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit
of such validity, and if, from any such circumstance, the Lender shall ever
receive interest or anything which might be deemed interest under applicable law
which would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, such amount which would be excessive
interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal amount owing on
account of this Revolving Note or the amounts owing on other obligations of the
Borrowers to the Lenders and the Agent under any Loan Document and not to the
payment of interest, or if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid principal
balance of this Revolving Note and the amounts owing on other obligations of the
Borrowers to the Lenders or the Agent under any Loan Documents, as the case may
be, such excess shall be refunded to the Borrowers. In determining whether or
not the interest paid or payable under any specific contingencies exceeds the
Highest Lawful Rate, each applicable Borrower and the Lender shall, to the
maximum extent permitted under applicable law, (a) characterize any nonprincipal
payment as an expense, fee or premium rather than as interest; (b) exclude
voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof; and (c) amortize, prorate,
allocate and spread, during the period of the full stated term of this Revolving
Note, all interest at any time contracted for, charged, received or reserved in
connection with the indebtedness evidenced by this Revolving Note.

     This Revolving Note is one of the Notes provided for in, and is entitled to
the benefits of the Credit Agreement, which Credit Agreement, among other
things, contains provisions for acceleration of the maturity hereof upon the
happening of certain stated events, for prepayments on account of principal
hereof prior to the maturity hereof upon the terms and conditions and with the
effect therein specified, and provisions to the effect that no provision of the
Credit Agreement or this Revolving Note shall require the payment or permit the
collection of interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate. The obligations of
the Borrowers hereunder are secured by the Security Documents executed by the
respective Borrowers and the other Loan Parties. It is contemplated that by
reason of prepayments or repayments hereon prior to the Maturity Date, there may
be times when no indebtedness is owing hereunder prior to such date, but

notwithstanding such occurrences, this Revolving Note shall remain valid and
shall be in full force and effect as to Revolving Loans made pursuant to the
Credit Agreement subsequent to each such occurrence.

     Except as otherwise specifically provided for in the Credit Agreement, each
Borrower and any and all endorsers, guarantors and sureties severally waive
grace, demand, presentment for payment, notice of dishonor or default, protest,
notice of protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration and
diligence in collecting and bringing of suit against any party hereto, and agree
to all renewals, extensions or partial payments hereon, with or without notice,
before or after maturity.

     THIS REVOLVING NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH,
THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS AND APPLICABLE FEDERAL LAW.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each Borrower has caused this Revolving Note to be
executed and delivered by its officer thereunto duly authorized effective as of
the date first above written.
