        automatically by an equal amount, in each case such increase or decrease
        shall occur without any further action by any Borrower or Administrative
        Agent. Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of any
        requested change in the allocation of the Tranche B Revolving Loan
        Commitments and the amount of such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the new
        Domestic Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitments, the UK Tranche B
        Revolving Loan Commitments, the French Tranche B Revolving Loan
        Commitments and the Japanese Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitments, as
        the case may be.

               (d) Limitation on Revolving Loans. Anything contained in this
        Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the Revolving Loans and the
        Revolving Loan Commitments shall be subject to the limitations that:

                    (1) in no event shall the Total Utilization of Tranche A
               Revolving Commitments for Company exceed (x) the Maximum Tranche
               A Revolving Loan Commitments then in effect or (y) the Tranche A
               Borrowing Base then in effect;

                    (2) in no event shall (x) the Total Utilization of Tranche B
               Revolving Loan Commitments for any Borrower exceed the Maximum
               Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitments for such Borrower then in
               effect, and (y) the Total Utilization of Tranche B Revolving
               Commitments for all Borrowers exceed (i) the Maximum Tranche B
               Revolving Loan Commitments for all Borrowers then in effect or
               (ii) the Tranche B Borrowing Base then in effect; and

                    (3) with respect to any Borrower, in no event shall the
               Dollar Equivalent of the sum of (x) the aggregate principal
               amount of all outstanding Tranche B Revolving Loans made to such
               Borrower (other than Tranche B Revolving Loans made for the
               purpose of repaying any Refunded Swing Line Loans in the case of
               Company, or reimbursing the applicable Issuing Lender for any
               amount drawn under any Tranche B Letter of Credit but not yet so
               applied in the case of all Borrowers) plus (y) in the case of
               Company, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding
               Tranche B Swing Line Loans made to Company, exceed the Tranche B
               Revolving Loan Suballocation for such Borrower then in effect.

     (iii) Swing Line Loans. Swing Line Lender agrees, subject to the
limitations set forth below with respect to the maximum amount of Swing Line
Loans permitted to be outstanding from time to time, to make a portion of either
the Tranche A Revolving Loan Commitments or the Tranche B Revolving Loan
Commitments available to Company, from time to time during the period from the
Effective Date to but excluding the Commitment Termination Date, by making
Tranche A Swing Line Loans or Tranche B Swing Line Loans, respectively, in
Dollars to Company, in an aggregate amount not exceeding the amount of the
applicable Swing Line Loan Commitment to be used for the purposes identified in
subsection 2.5A, notwithstanding the fact that (x) such Tranche A Swing Line
Loans, when aggregated with Swing Line Lender's outstanding Domestic Tranche A
Revolving Loans and such Swing Line Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Tranche A
Letter of Credit Usage for Company then in effect, may exceed such Swing Line
Lender's Domestic Tranche A Revolving Loan Commitment, or (y) such Tranche B
Swing Line Loans, when aggregated with Swing Line Lender's outstanding Domestic
Tranche B Revolving Loans and such Swing Line Lender's Pro Rata Share of the
Tranche B Letter of Credit Usage for Company then in effect, may exceed such
Swing Line Lender's Domestic Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitment, as the case
may be; provided, however, that at any time Swing Line Lender may make, and
Company may borrow, only one Type of Swing Line Loan; provided further that
Swing Lender may not make, and Company may not borrow, Tranche A Swing Line
Loans so long as an amount equal to the applicable Minimum Amount with respect
to Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitments remains outstanding. The original amount
of the Tranche A Swing Line Loan Commitment is $5,000,000 and the original
amount of the Tranche B Swing Line Loan Commitment is $5,000,000; provided that
any reduction of the Domestic Tranche A Revolving Loan Commitments or Tranche B
Revolving Loan Commitments, as the case may be, made pursuant to subsection
2.4A(iii), 2.4B(ii) or 2.4B(iii) which reduces the aggregate Domestic Tranche A
Revolving Loan Commitments or Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitments,
respectively, to an amount less than the then current amount of the Tranche A
Swing Line Loan Commitment or Tranche B Swing Line Loan Commitment,
respectively, shall result in an automatic corresponding reduction of the
Tranche A Swing Line Loan Commitment or Tranche B Swing Line Loan Commitment,
respectively, to the amount of the Domestic Tranche A Revolving Loan
Commitments, as so reduced, or the Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitments, as so
reduced, respectively, without any further action on the part of Company,
Administrative Agent or the Swing Line Lender. Each Swing Line Loan Commitment
shall expire on the Commitment Termination Date and all Swing Line Loans and all
other amounts owed hereunder with respect to the Swing Line Loans shall be paid
in full no later than that date; provided that each Swing Line Loan Commitment
shall expire immediately and without further action on November 19, 1999 if the
Term Loans are not made on or before that date. Amounts borrowed under this
subsection 2.1A(iii) may be repaid and reborrowed to but excluding the
Commitment Termination Date.

     Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Swing Line Loans and the Swing Line Loan Commitments shall be subject to the
limitations that:


                                       55
<PAGE>

          (1) in no event shall the Total Utilization of Tranche A Revolving
     Commitments for Company exceed (x) the Maximum Tranche A Revolving Loan
     Commitments then in effect or (y) the Tranche A Borrowing Base then in
     effect;

          (2) in no event shall (x) the Total Utilization of Tranche B Revolving
     Loan Commitments for Company exceed the Maximum Tranche B Revolving Loan
     Commitments for Company then in effect, and (y) the Total Utilization of
     Tranche B Revolving Commitments for all Borrowers exceed (i) the Maximum
     Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitments for all Borrowers then in effect or
     the Tranche B Borrowing Base then in effect; and

          (3) in no event shall the Dollar Equivalent of the sum of (x) the
     aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Tranche B Revolving Loans
     made to Company (other than Tranche B Revolving Loans made for the purpose
     of repaying any Refunded Swing Line Loans, or reimbursing the applicable
     Issuing Lender for any amount drawn under any Tranche B Letter of Credit
     but not yet so applied) plus (y) the aggregate principal amount of all
     outstanding Tranche B Swing Line Loans made to Company, exceed the Tranche
     B Revolving Loan Suballocation for Company then in effect.

     With respect to Swing Line Loans which have not been voluntarily prepaid by
Company pursuant to subsection 2.4B(i), Swing Line Lender may, at any time in
its sole and absolute discretion, deliver to Administrative Agent (with a copy
to Company), no later than 12:00 P.M. (New York time) on the first Business Day
in advance of the proposed Funding Date, a notice (which shall be deemed to be a
Notice of Borrowing given by Company) requesting the Domestic Tranche A Lenders
or Tranche B Lenders, as the case may be, to make Domestic Tranche A Revolving
Loans or Tranche B Revolving Loans, as the case may be, that are Base Rate Loans
on such Funding Date in an amount equal to the amount of such Swing Line Loans
(the "REFUNDED SWING LINE LOANS") outstanding on the date such notice is given
which Swing Line Lender requests such applicable Lenders to prepay. Anything
contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) the proceeds of
such Revolving Loans made by such Lenders other than Swing Line Lender shall be
immediately delivered by Administrative Agent to Swing Line Lender (and not to
Company) and applied to repay a corresponding portion of such Refunded Swing
Line Loans and (ii) on the day such Revolving Loans are made, Swing Line
Lender's Pro Rata Share of such Refunded Swing Line Loans shall be deemed to be
paid with the proceeds of a Revolving Loan made by Swing Line Lender, and such
portion of such Swing Line Loans deemed to be so paid shall no longer be
outstanding as Swing Line Loans and shall no longer be due under the Swing Line
Note of Swing Line Lender but shall instead constitute part of Swing Line
Lender's applicable outstanding Revolving Loans and shall be due under the
applicable Revolving Note of Swing Line Lender. Company hereby authorizes
Administrative Agent and Swing Line Lender to charge Company's accounts with
Administrative Agent and Swing Line Lender (up to the amount available in each
such account) in order to immediately pay Swing Line Lender the amount of such
Refunded Swing Line Loans to the extent the proceeds of such Revolving Loans
made by the applicable Lenders, including the Revolving Loan deemed to be made
by Swing Line Lender, are not sufficient to repay in full such Refunded


                                       56
<PAGE>

Swing Line Loans.  If any portion of any such amount paid (or deemed to be paid)
to Swing Line Lender  should be  recovered by or on behalf of Company from Swing
Line  Lender in  bankruptcy,  by  assignment  for the  benefit of  creditors  or
otherwise, the loss of the amount so recovered shall be ratably shared among all
applicable Lenders in the manner contemplated by subsection 10.5.

     If for any reason (a) the applicable Revolving Loans are not made upon the
request of Swing Line Lender as provided in the immediately preceding paragraph
in an amount sufficient to repay any amounts owed to Swing Line Lender in
respect of any outstanding Swing Line Loans or (b) the applicable Revolving Loan
Commitments are terminated at a time when any Swing Line Loans are outstanding,
each applicable Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby agrees to, have purchased
a participation in such outstanding Swing Line Loans in an amount equal to its
Pro Rata Share (calculated, in the case of the foregoing clause (b), immediately
prior to such termination of the applicable Revolving Loan Commitments) of the
unpaid amount of such Swing Line Loans together with accrued interest thereon.
Upon one Business Day's notice from Swing Line Lender, each applicable Lender
shall deliver to Swing Line Lender an amount equal to its respective
participation in Same Day Funds at the Funding and Payment Office. In the event
any such applicable Lender fails to make available to Swing Line Lender the
amount of such applicable Lender's participation as provided in this paragraph,
Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such
applicable Lender together with interest thereon at the rate customarily used by
Swing Line Lender for the correction of errors among banks for three Business
Days and thereafter at the Base Rate. In the event Swing Line Lender receives a
payment of any amount in which other applicable Lenders have purchased
participations as provided in this paragraph, Swing Line Lender shall promptly
distribute to each such other applicable Lender its Pro Rata Share of such
payment.

     Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each applicable
Lender's obligation to make the applicable Revolving Loans for the purpose of
repaying any Refunded Swing Line Loans pursuant to the second preceding
paragraph and each applicable Lender's obligation to purchase a participation in
any unpaid Swing Line Loans pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph
shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any
circumstance, including (a) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or
other right which such applicable Lender may have against Swing Line Lender,
Company or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (b) the occurrence or
continuation of an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default; (c) any
adverse change in the business, operations, properties, assets, condition
(financial or otherwise) or prospects of Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (d)
any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any party thereto; or
(e) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not
similar to any of the foregoing; provided that such obligations of each
applicable Lender are subject to the condition that (X) Swing Line Lender
believed in good faith that all conditions under Section 4 to the making of the
applicable Refunded Swing Line Loans or other unpaid Swing Line Loans, as the
case may be, were satisfied at the time such Refunded Swing Line Loans or unpaid
Swing Line Loans were made or (Y) the satisfaction of any such condition not
satisfied had been waived in accordance with subsection 10.6 prior to or at the
time such Refunded Swing Line Loans or other unpaid Swing Line Loans were made.

                                       59
<PAGE>

          (g) all Japanese Tranche B Revolving Loans under this Agreement shall
     be made by Japanese Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their
     respective Pro Rata Shares of the Japanese Tranche B Revolving Loan
     Commitments;

in each case it being understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any
default by any other Lender in that other Lender's obligation to make a Loan
requested hereunder nor shall the Commitment of any Lender to make any Type of
Loan requested be increased or decreased as a result of a default by any other
Lender in that other Lender's obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder.

     (ii) Promptly after receipt by Administrative Agent of a Notice of
Borrowing pursuant to subsection 2.1B (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof),
Administrative Agent shall notify each applicable Lender or Swing Line Lender,
as the case may be, of the proposed borrowing. Each such Lender shall make the
amount of its applicable Loan available to Administrative Agent, at the
applicable Funding and Payment Office, not later than 12:00 Noon (Local Time) on
the applicable Funding Date, and Swing Line Lender shall make the amount of its
applicable Swing Line Loan available to Administrative Agent not later than 3:00
P.M. (Chicago time) on the applicable Funding Date, in each case in Same Day
Funds in the Applicable Currency, at the Funding and Payment Office. Except as
provided in subsection 2.1A(iii) and subsection 3.3B with respect to Revolving
Loans used to repay Refunded Swing Line Loans or to reimburse any Issuing Lender
for the amount of a drawing under a Letter of Credit issued by it, upon
satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent specified in subsection 4.1
(in the case of Loans made on the Effective Date) and, subject to the provisions
set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph, subsection 4.2 (in the case of
all Loans), Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of such Loans available
to the applicable Borrower on the applicable Funding Date by causing an amount
of Same Day Funds in the Applicable Currency equal to the proceeds of all such
Loans received by Administrative Agent from Lenders or Swing Line Lender, as the
case may be, to be credited to the account of such Borrower at the Funding and
Payment Office.

     Unless Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to
the Funding Date for any Loans that such Lender does not intend to make
available to Administrative Agent the amount of such Lender's Loan requested on
such Funding Date, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made
such amount available to Administrative Agent on such Funding Date and
Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, but shall not be obligated to,
make available to Borrower a corresponding amount on such Funding Date. If such
corresponding amount is not in fact made available to Administrative Agent by
such Lender, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such
corresponding amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon,
for each day from such Funding Date until the date such amount is paid to
Administrative Agent at the customary rate set by Administrative Agent for the
correction of errors among banks for three Business Days and thereafter at the
Base Rate. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon
Administrative Agent's demand therefor, Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify Borrower and Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount in


                                       60
<PAGE>

the Applicable Currency to Administrative Agent together with interest thereon,
for each day from such Funding Date until the date such amount is paid to
Administrative Agent at the rate payable under this Agreement for Base Rate
Loans. Nothing in this subsection 2.1C shall be deemed to relieve any Lender
from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any
rights that Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by
such Lender hereunder.

     D. THE REGISTER.

     (i) Administrative Agent shall maintain, at its address referred to in
subsection 10.8, a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of
Lenders and the Commitments and Loans of each Lender from time to time (the
"REGISTER"). The Register shall be available for inspection by any Borrower or
any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior
notice.

     (ii) Administrative Agent shall record in the Register the applicable Term
Loan Commitment (if any) and applicable Revolving Loan Commitment and the
applicable Term Loan (if any) and applicable Revolving Loans from time to time
of each Lender, the applicable Swing Line Loan Commitment and the applicable
Swing Line Loans from time to time of Swing Line Lender, and each repayment or
prepayment in respect of the principal amount of the applicable Term Loan (if
any) or applicable Revolving Loans of each Lender or the applicable Swing Line
Loans of Swing Line Lender. Any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding
on each Borrower and each Lender, absent manifest error; provided that failure
to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect
any Lender's Commitments or any Borrower's Obligations in respect of any
applicable Loans.

     (iii) Each Lender shall record on its internal records (including, without
limitation, the Notes held by such Lender) the amount of the applicable Term
Loan (if any) and each applicable Revolving Loan made by it and each payment in
respect thereof. Any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on each
applicable Borrower, absent manifest error; provided that failure to make any
such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect Lender's
Commitments or any Borrower's Obligations in respect of any applicable Loans;
and provided further that in the event of any inconsistency between the Register
and any Lender's records, the recordations in the Register shall govern.

     (iv) Borrowers, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall deem and treat the
Persons listed as Lenders in the Register as the holders and owners of the
corresponding Commitments and Loans listed therein for all purposes hereof, and
no assignment or transfer of any such Commitment or Loan shall be effective, in
each case unless and until an Assignment Agreement effecting the assignment or
transfer thereof shall have been accepted by Administrative Agent and recorded
in the Register as provided in subsection 10.1B(ii). Prior to such recordation,
all amounts owed with respect to the applicable Commitment or Loan shall be owed
to the Lender listed in the Register as the owner thereof, and any request,
authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or
giving such authority or


                                       61
<PAGE>

consent, is listed in the Register as a Lender shall be conclusive and binding
on any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee of the corresponding
Commitments or Loans.

     (v) Each Borrower hereby designates BTCo to serve as such Borrower's agent
solely for purposes of maintaining the Register as provided in this subsection
2.1D, and each Borrower hereby agrees that, to the extent BTCo serves in such
capacity, BTCo and its officers, directors, employees, agents and affiliates
shall constitute Indemnitees for all purposes under subsection 10.3.

     E. NOTES. Each Borrower shall execute and deliver on the Effective Date (i)
to each applicable Lender (or to Administrative Agent for that Lender) (a) a
Term Note, substantially in the form of Exhibit IV annexed hereto, to evidence
that Lender's Term Loans, in the principal amount of that Lender's applicable
Term Loan and with other appropriate insertions, (b) a Tranche A Revolving Note,
substantially in the form of Exhibit V annexed hereto, to evidence that Lender's
Tranche A Revolving Loans, in the principal amount of that Lender's applicable
Domestic Tranche A Revolving Loan Commitments and with other appropriate
insertions and (c) a Tranche B Revolving Note, substantially in the form of
Exhibit VI annexed hereto to evidence that Lender's Tranche B Revolving Loans,
in the principal amount of that Lender's applicable Tranche B Revolving Loan
Commitments and with other appropriate insertions and (ii) to Swing Line Lender
(or to Administrative Agent for that Lender) a Swing Line Note with respect to
the Domestic Tranche A Revolving Loan Commitments and a Swing Line Note with
respect to the Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitments, in each case substantially
in the form of Exhibit VII annexed hereto, to evidence Swing Line Lender's
Tranche A Swing Line Loans and Tranche B Swing Line Loans, respectively, in the
principal amount of the Tranche A Swing Line Loan Commitment and Tranche B Swing
Line Loan Commitment, respectively, and with other appropriate insertions.

     F. SPECIAL PROVISIONS GOVERNING OFFSHORE CURRENCY LOANS AND OFFSHORE
CURRENCY LETTERS OF CREDIT. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement to the contrary, the following provisions shall govern with respect to
Offshore Currency Loans and to Letters of Credit denominated in a currency other
than Dollars, in each case as to the matters covered:

          (i) Calculation of Dollar Equivalent Amount of Offshore Currency Loans
     and Foreign Currency Letters of Credit. For purposes of determining (1)
     whether the Total Utilization of Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitments
     exceeds the Maximum Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitments then in effect,
     (2) the Letter of Credit Usage, or (3) whether the aggregate Total
     Utilization of the Tranche B Revolving Loans and the Total Outstanding Term
     Loans exceeds the MaximumTerm Loan Commitment then in effect,
     Administrative Agent shall determine the Dollar Equivalent amounts with
     respect to any Revolving Loans that are Offshore Currency Loans and with
     respect to any Letters of Credit denominated in a currency other than
     Dollars (a) at the time a Notice of Allocation is given, (b) on the first
     Business Day of each month of each calendar year, and (c) at such other
     dates as Administrative Agent may reasonably require (each such date under


                                       62
<PAGE>

     clauses (a) - (c) being a "COMPUTATION DATE"). Administrative Agent shall
     determine the Dollar Equivalent amount for a particular Revolving Loan at
     the time a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation is
     given with respect to such Revolving Loan and for a particular Letter of
     Credit at the time a Request for Issuance of Letter of Credit is given with
     respect to such Letter of Credit.

          (ii) European Union. The EU has introduced a single currency (the
     "EURO") and has initiated the process of substituting the Euro for the
     national currencies of the member states participating in the EU. On the
     date on which any Offshore Currency is replaced by the Euro, it is hereby
     acknowledged and agreed that "Sterling," "Francs" and "Marks," each as
     defined herein, shall include the Euro and that conversion of any
     outstanding Loans denominated in such Offshore Currency into the Euro shall
     take effect; provided that the original Offshore Currency shall be retained
     for so long as legally permissible; provided further that any such
     conversion shall be based on the rate of conversion officially fixed by the
     EU on the date the Euro replaces the applicable Offshore Currency.
     Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, none of the
     introduction of the Euro, the substitution of such currency for any
     Offshore Currency, the fixing of such official rate of conversion nor any
     economic consequences that arise from any of the aforementioned events or
     otherwise in connection with the EU shall give rise to any right to
     terminate prematurely, contest, cancel, rescind, modify or renegotiate this
     Agreement or any of its provisions or to raise any other objections and/or
     exceptions or to assert any claims for compensation.

2.2 INTEREST ON THE LOANS.

     A. RATE OF INTEREST. Subject to the provisions of subsections 2.6 and 2.7,
each Term Loan and each Revolving Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid
principal amount thereof from the date made through maturity (whether by
acceleration or otherwise) at a rate determined by reference to the Base Rate or
to the Adjusted Offshore Rate. Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.7, each
Swing Line Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount hereof from
the date made through maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate
determined by reference to the Base Rate. The applicable basis for determining
the rate of interest with respect to any Term Loan or any Revolving Loan shall
be selected by the Borrower initially at the time a Notice of Borrowing is given
with respect to such Loan pursuant to subsection 2.1B, and the basis for
determining the interest rate with respect to any Term Loan or any Revolving
Loan may be changed from time to time pursuant to subsection 2.2D. If on any day
a Term Loan or a Revolving Loan denominated in Dollars is outstanding with
respect to which notice has not been delivered to Administrative Agent in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement specifying the applicable basis for
determining the rate of interest, then for that day that Loan shall bear
interest determined by reference to the Base Rate. If on any day a Term Loan or
a Revolving Loan denominated in an Offshore Currency is outstanding with respect
to which notice has not been delivered to Administrative Agent in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement specifying the applicable basis for determining
the rate of interest, then such Loan


                                       63
<PAGE>

shall bear  interest  determined  by reference to the Offshore Rate Loan with an
Interest  Period of, and the applicable  Interest  Period shall be deemed to be,
one month.

     Subject to the provisions of subsections 2.2E and 2.7, the Term Loans and
Revolving Loans shall bear interest through maturity as follows:

          (a) if a Base Rate Loan, then at the sum of the Base Rate plus the
     Applicable Base Rate Margin; or

          (b) if an Offshore Rate Loan, then at the sum of the Adjusted Offshore
     Rate plus the Applicable Offshore Rate Margin.

     Subject to the provisions of subsections 2.2E and 2.7, the Swing Line Loans
shall bear interest through maturity at the sum of the Base Rate plus the
Applicable Base Rate Margin.

     B. INTEREST PERIODS. In connection with each Offshore Rate Loan, a Borrower
may, pursuant to the applicable Notice of Borrowing or Notice of
Conversion/Continuation, as the case may be, select an interest period (each an
"INTEREST PERIOD") to be applicable to such Loan, which Interest Period shall
be, at Borrower's option, either a one, two, three or six month period; provided
that:

          (i) the initial Interest Period for any such Loan shall commence on
     the Funding Date in respect of such Loan, in the case of a Loan initially
     made as an Offshore Rate Loan or on the date specified in the applicable
     Notice of Conversion/Continuation, in the case of a Loan converted to an
     Offshore Rate Loan;

          (ii) in the case of immediately successive Interest Periods applicable
     to an Offshore Rate Loan continued as such pursuant to a Notice of
     Conversion/Continuation, each successive Interest Period shall commence on
     the day on which the next preceding Interest Period expires;

          (iii) if an Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is
     not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next
     succeeding Business Day; provided that, if any Interest Period would
     otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day but is a day of the
     month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such
     Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day;

          (iv) any Interest Period that begins on the last Business Day of a
     calendar month (or on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding
     day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period) shall,
     subject to clause (v) of this subsection 2.2B, end on the last Business Day
     of a calendar month;

          (v) no Interest Period with respect to any portion of the Term Loans
     and no Interest period with respect to any portion of the Revolving Loans
     shall extend beyond the Commitment Termination Date;


                                       64
<PAGE>

          (vi) no Interest Period with respect to any portion of the Term Loans
     of any Borrower shall extend beyond a date on which such Borrower is
     required to make a scheduled payment of principal of the Term Loans of such
     Borrower unless the sum of (a) the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans
     of such Borrower that are Base Rate Loans plus (b) the aggregate principal
     amount of Term Loans of such Borrower that are Offshore Rate Loans with
     Interest Periods expiring on or before such date equals or exceeds the
     principal amount required to be paid on the Term Loans of such Borrower on
     such date;

          (vii) no Interest Period with respect to any portion of the Domestic
     Tranche A Revolving Loans shall extend beyond the date on which a permanent
     reduction of the Domestic Tranche A Revolving Loan Commitments is scheduled
     to occur unless the sum of (a) the aggregate principal amount of Domestic
     Tranche A Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans plus (b) the aggregate
     principal amount of Domestic Tranche A Revolving Loans that are Offshore
     Rate Loans with Interest Periods expiring on or before such date plus (c)
     the excess of the Domestic Tranche A Revolving Loan Commitments then in
     effect over the aggregate principal amount of Domestic Tranche A Revolving
     Loans then outstanding equals or exceeds the permanent reduction of the
     Domestic Tranche A Revolving Loan Commitments that is scheduled to occur on
     such date;

          (viii) there shall be no more than twelve (12) Interest Periods for
     any Borrower outstanding at any time; and

          (ix) in the event a Borrower fails to specify an Interest Period for
     any Offshore Rate Loan in the applicable Notice of Borrowing or Notice of
     Conversion/Continuation, such Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an
     Interest Period of one month.

     C. INTEREST PAYMENTS. Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.2E,
interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on and to each Interest
Payment Date applicable to that Loan, upon any prepayment of that Loan (to the
extent accrued on the amount being prepaid) and at maturity (including final
maturity); provided that in the event any Swing Line Loans or any Revolving
Loans that are Base Rate Loans are prepaid pursuant to subsection 2.4B(i),
interest accrued on such Swing Line Loans or Revolving Loans through the date of
such prepayment shall be payable on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date
applicable to Base Rate Loans (or, if earlier, at final maturity).

     D. CONVERSION OR CONTINUATION. Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.6,
a Borrower shall have the option (i) to convert at any time all or any part of
its outstanding Term Loans or Revolving Loans denominated in Dollars equal to
the Minimum Amount from Loans bearing interest at a rate determined by reference
to one basis to Loans bearing interest at a rate determined by reference to an
alternative basis, or (ii) upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable
to any Offshore Rate Loan to continue all or any portion of such Loan equal to
the Minimum Amount as an Offshore Rate Loan; provided, however, that any
Offshore Rate Loan denominated in Dollars may only be converted into a Base Rate
Loan on the expiration date of


                                       65
<PAGE>

an Interest Period applicable thereto; provided further that Revolving Loans
denominated in an Offshore Currency may not be converted into Base Rate Loans
and that Loans denominated in one currency may not be converted into Loans
denominated in another currency.

     A Borrower shall deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation to
Administrative Agent no later than 12:00 Noon (Local Time) at least one Business
Day in advance of the proposed conversion date (in the case of a conversion of
an Offshore Rate Loan denominated in Dollars to a Base Rate Loan) and at least
three Business Days in advance of the proposed conversion/continuation date (in
the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, an Offshore Rate Loan). A
Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall specify (i) the proposed conversion/
continuation date (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the amount and Type of
the Loan to be converted/continued, (iii) the nature of the proposed
conversion/continuation, (iv) in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation
of, an Offshore Rate Loan, the requested Interest Period, and (v) in the case of
a conversion to, or a continuation of, an Offshore Rate Loan, that no Potential
Event of Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. In lieu of
delivering the above-described Notice of Conversion/Continuation, a Borrower may
give Administrative Agent telephonic notice by the required time of any proposed
conversion/continuation under this subsection 2.2D; provided that such notice
shall be promptly confirmed in writing by delivery of a Notice of
Conversion/Continuation to Administrative Agent on or before the proposed
conversion/continuation date.

     Upon receipt of written or telephonic notice of any proposed
conversion/continuation under this subsection 2.2D, Administrative Agent shall
promptly transmit said notice by telefacsimile or telephone to each applicable
Lender.

     Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall incur any liability to
any Borrower in acting upon any telephonic notice referred to above that
Administrative Agent believes in good faith to have been given by a duly
authorized officer or other person authorized to act on behalf of such Borrower
or for otherwise acting in good faith under this subsection 2.2D, and upon
conversion or continuation of the applicable basis for determining the interest
rate with respect to any Loans in accordance with this Agreement pursuant to any
such telephonic notice any Borrower shall have effected a conversion or
continuation, as the case may be, hereunder.

     Except as otherwise provided in subsections 2.6B, 2.6C and 2.6G, a Notice
of Conversion/Continuation for conversion to, or continuation of, an Offshore
Rate Loan (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof) shall be irrevocable on and
after the related Interest Rate Determination Date, and Borrower shall be bound
to effect a conversion or continuation in accordance therewith.

     E. DEFAULT RATE. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any
Event of Default, the outstanding principal amount of all Loans and, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, any interest payments thereon not paid when
due and any fees and other amounts then due and payable hereunder, shall
thereafter bear interest (including post-petition interest in


                                       66
<PAGE>

any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code) payable upon demand at a rate that is
2.00% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable under this
Agreement with respect to Base Rate Loans. Payment or acceptance of the
increased rates of interest provided for in this subsection 2.2E is not a
permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any
Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of
Administrative Agent or any Lender.

     F. COMPUTATION OF INTEREST. Interest on the Loans (other than Loans
denominated in Sterling) shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and
interest on Loans denominated in Sterling shall be computed on the basis of a
365-day year, in each case for the actual number of days elapsed in the period
during which it accrues. In computing interest on any Loan, (i) the date of the
making of such Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to such
Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted from an Offshore Rate
Loan, the date of conversion of such Offshore Rate Loan to such Base Rate Loan
shall be included, and (ii) the date of payment of such Loan or the expiration
date of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base
Rate Loan being converted to an Offshore Rate Loan, the date of conversion of
such Base Rate Loan to such Offshore Rate Loan shall be excluded; provided that
if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, no interest shall be
paid on that Loan.

     G. EFFECTIVE GLOBAL RATE. For the purposes of Articles L 313-1 to L 313-6
of the French Code de la Consummation, the parties acknowledge that the taux
effectif global for Offshore Rate Loans denominated in Francs may only be
determined during the course of the Offshore Rate Loans denominated in Francs.
By way of example, the taux effectif global applicable on November 19, 1999,
taking into account the fees, commissions and expenses which are payable or
estimated to be payable by Goss France and assuming a base interest rate of
3.50563% per annum (being the Adjusted Offshore Rate for Francs for a period of
three months) if the French Revolving Loan Commitment were fully drawn from the
Effective Date to the Commitment Termination Date, would be 6.106% per annum and
the taux de periode would be 1.5265% for a period of three months.

     Loan Commitments of all other Borrowers shall be permanently reduced, in

<PAGE>

     2.4B(iii)(a)-(e) and (g), Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent an
     Officers' Certificate demonstrating the calculation of the amount (the "NET
     PROCEEDS AMOUNT") of the applicable Net Asset Sale Proceeds or Net
     Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds, the applicable Net Reversion Amount, Net
     Equity Proceeds or Net Debt Proceeds (as such terms are defined in
     subsections 2.4B(iii)(c), (d) and (e)) or the Net Settlement Proceeds or
     Consolidated Excess Cash Flow, as the case may be, that gave rise to such
     prepayment and/or reduction. In the event that Borrower shall subsequently
     determine that the actual Net Proceeds Amount was greater than the amount
     set forth in such Officers' Certificate, Borrower shall promptly make an
     additional prepayment of the Loans (and/or, if applicable, the Revolving
     Loan Commitments shall be permanently reduced) in an amount equal to the
     amount of such excess, and Borrower shall concurrently therewith deliver to

     Loan Commitments and Total Utilization of Tranche B Revolving Loan
     Commitments shall not exceed the Maximum Tranche A Revolving Loan
     Commitments and Maximum Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitments, respectively,
     then in effect and/or (2) to give effect to the limitations set forth in
     subsection 2.1A(ii)(d) and the second paragraph of subsection 2.1A(iii).

          (j) Prepayments Due to Currency Fluctuations.

          (1) If on any Computation Date Administrative Agent shall have
     determined that the Total Utilization of Tranche B Revolving Loan
     Commitments exceeds the Maximum Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitments
     (whether for a particular Borrower or all Borrowers) because of a change in
     applicable rates of exchange between Dollars and Offshore Currencies, then
     Administrative Agent shall give notice to the applicable Borrower(s) that a
     prepayment is required under this subsection 2.4B(iii)(j)(1), and (I) in
     the case of Company, Company shall promptly (x) prepay first its Swing Line
     Loans and second its Tranche B Revolving Loans and/or (y) cash
     collateralize its outstanding Tranche B Letters of Credit, and (II) in the

     necessary so that the Total Utilization of Tranche B Revolving Loan
     Commitments shall not exceed the Maximum Tranche B Revolving Loan
     Commitments (whether for such Borrower or all Borrowers) then in effect.


                                       74
<PAGE>

          (2) If on any Computation Date Administrative Agent shall have
     determined that the Total Outstanding Term Loans exceeds the Maximum Term
     Loan Commitments, (whether for the Company or Goss UK or both) because of a
     change in applicable rates of exchange between Dollars and Offshore
     Currencies, then Administrative Agent shall give notice to the applicable
     Borrower(s) that a prepayment is required under this subsection
     2.4B(iii)(j)(2), and each affected Borrower shall promptly prepay its Term
     Loans, in each case to the extent necessary so that the Total Outstanding
     Term Loans shall not exceed the Maximum Term Loan Commitments (whether for
     such Borrower or all Borrowers) then in effect.

          (k) Prepayments of Domestic Tranche A Revolving Loans Due to
     Availability of Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitments. Company shall from
     time to time prepay first its Tranche A Swing Line Loans and second its
     Domestic Tranche A Revolving Loans in the event that an equivalent amount
     or more of Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitments becomes available.

          (l) Reductions of Revolving Loan Commitments Not Limited to Amount of
     Revolving Loans Outstanding. The amount of any required reduction of the
     Revolving Loan Commitments pursuant to any provision of this subsection
     2.4B(iii) shall not be affected by the fact that the outstanding principal
     amount of Revolving Loans at the time of such reduction is less than the
     amount of such reduction.

          (iv) Application of Prepayments.

          (a) Application of Voluntary Prepayments by Type of Loans. Any

     Company, first to repay such Borrower's outstanding Tranche B Revolving
     Loans to the full extent thereof, and second to repay such Borrower's

     principal amounts thereof) to each scheduled installment of principal of
     the Term Loans of each Borrower set forth in subsections 2.4A(i) and
     2.4A(ii) that is unpaid at the time of such prepayment.

     Loans of that Borrower to the full extent thereof and to further
     permanently reduce the Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitments of that
     Borrower by the amount of such prepayment, second, to the extent of any

     Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitments of each of the other Borrowers then in
     effect by the amount of such prepayment, and fifth, to the extent of any
     remaining portion of the Applied Amount, to prepay the Domestic Term Loans

     the Term Loans pursuant to subsection 2.4B(iii) shall be applied to prepay

     outstanding principal amounts thereof) and shall be applied to reduce the
     scheduled installments of principal of the Term Loans set forth in
     subsections 2.4A(i) and 2.4A(ii) in inverse order of maturity.

     Tranche A Revolving Loan Commitments set forth in subsection 2.4A(iii) that
     is remaining at the time of such mandatory reduction in inverse order of
     maturity.

     C. GENERAL PROVISIONS REGARDING PAYMENTS.

     (i) Manner and Time of Payment. Borrowers shall make all payments in
respect of any Loan denominated in an Applicable Currency in the same Applicable
Currency. All payments by Borrower of (x) principal and interest in respect of
Loans hereunder and under any Notes shall be made in the same Applicable
Currency as incurred, and (y) except as may be otherwise provided elsewhere in
this Agreement, all fees and all other Obligations hereunder and under any Notes
shall be made in Dollars (amounts denominated in a currency other than Dollars
shall be converted into Dollars by reference to the applicable Exchange Rate),
in each case in Same Day Funds and without defense, setoff, counterclaim or
other deduction, free of any restriction or condition, and delivered to
Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 Noon (Local Time) on the date due to
the applicable Funding and Payment Office. Funds received by Administrative
Agent after the times specified above on the due dates specified above shall be
deemed to have been paid by Borrowers on the next succeeding Business Day. Each
Borrower hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to charge its accounts with
Administrative Agent in order to cause timely payment to be made to
Administrative Agent of all principal, interest, fees and expenses due hereunder
(subject to sufficient funds being available in its accounts for that purpose).

     (ii) Application of Payments to Principal and Interest. Except as provided
in subsection 2.2C, all payments in respect of the principal amount of any Loan
shall include payment of accrued interest on the principal amount being repaid
or prepaid, and all such payments (and, in any event, any payments in respect of
any Loan on a date when interest is due and payable with respect to such Loan)
shall be applied to the payment of interest before application to principal.

     (iii) Apportionment of Payments. Aggregate principal and interest payments
in respect of Term Loans and Revolving Loans shall be apportioned among all
outstanding Loans to which such payments relate, in each case proportionately to
such Lenders' respective Pro Rata Shares. Administrative Agent shall promptly
distribute to the applicable Lender, at its


                                       77
<PAGE>

primary address set forth below its name on the appropriate signature page
hereof or at such other address as such Lender may request, its Pro Rata Share
of all such payments received by Administrative Agent and the commitment fees of
such Lender when received by Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection 2.3.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this subsection 2.4C(iii), if,
pursuant to the provisions of subsection 2.6C, any Notice of Conversion/
Continuation is withdrawn as to any Affected Lender or if any Affected Lender
makes Base Rate Loans in lieu of its Pro Rata Share of any Offshore Rate Loans,
Administrative Agent shall give effect thereto in apportioning payments received
thereafter.

     (iv) Payments on Business Days. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder
shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment
shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time
shall be included in the computation of the payment of interest hereunder or of
the commitment or Letter of Credit fees hereunder, as the case may be.

     (v) Notation of Payment. Each Lender agrees that before disposing of any
Note held by it, or any part thereof (other than by granting participations
therein), that Lender will make a notation thereon of all Loans evidenced by
that Note and all principal payments previously made thereon and of the date to
which interest thereon has been paid; provided that the failure to make (or any
error in the making of) a notation of any Loan made under such Note shall not
limit or otherwise affect the obligations of any Borrower hereunder or under
such Note with respect to any Loan or any payments of principal or interest on
such Note.

2.5 USE OF PROCEEDS.

     A. TERM LOANS. The obligations of the Borrowers under the Existing Credit
Agreement (including the Existing Letters of Credit) shall be continued as
and/or converted into Domestic Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount of
$131,243,580, UK Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount of $18,756,420 and
Tranche B Revolving Loans and Tranche B Letters of Credit in an aggregate
principal amount of $50,000,000.

     B. REVOLVING LOANS; SWING LINE LOANS. Up to $50,000,000 of the Tranche B
Revolving Loan Commitments shall be used by Borrowers on the Effective Date in
connection with the continuation and/or conversion of the obligations of the
Borrowers under the Existing Credit Agreement (including the Existing Letters of
Credit) into Tranche B Revolving Loans and Tranche B Letters of Credit
hereunder. The proceeds of any other Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans shall
be used for working capital and general corporate purposes, which may include
without limitation the making of intercompany loans to any of Company's
wholly-owned Subsidiaries for their own working capital and general corporate
purposes in accordance with subsection 7.1(iii).

     C. MARGIN REGULATIONS. No portion of the proceeds of any borrowing under
this Agreement shall be used by any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in any
manner that might cause the borrowing or the application of such proceeds to
violate Regulation U, Regulation T or Regulation X of the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System or any


                                       78
<PAGE>

other regulation of such Board or to violate the Exchange Act, or to violate any
other similar or  comparable  laws of the UK, France or Japan in each case as in
effect on the date or dates of such borrowing and such use of proceeds.

2.6 SPECIAL PROVISIONS GOVERNING OFFSHORE RATE LOANS.

     Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the
following provisions shall govern with respect to Offshore Rate Loans as to the
matters covered:

     A. DETERMINATION OF APPLICABLE INTEREST RATE. As soon as practicable after
11:00 A.M. (London time) on each Interest Rate Determination Date,
Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest
error, be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties) the interest rate that
shall apply to the Offshore Rate Loans for which an interest rate is then being
determined for the applicable Interest Period and shall promptly give notice
thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and
each applicable Lender.

     B. INABILITY TO DETERMINE APPLICABLE INTEREST RATE. In the event that
Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be final
and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto), on any Interest Rate
Determination Date with respect to any Offshore Rate Loans that by reason of
circumstances affecting the interbank Eurodollar market adequate and fair means
do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable to such Loans on the
basis provided for in the definition of Adjusted Offshore Rate, Administrative
Agent shall on such date give notice (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed
in writing) to the Borrower and each applicable Lender, of such determination,
whereupon (i) no Loans may be made as, or converted to, Offshore Rate Loans
until such time as Administrative Agent notifies such Borrower and such Lenders
that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist and (ii) any
Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by a Borrower
with respect to the Loans in respect of which such determination was made shall
be deemed to be rescinded by such Borrower.

     C. ILLEGALITY OR IMPRACTICABILITY OF OFFSHORE RATE LOANS. In the event that
on any date any Lender shall have determined (which determination shall be final
and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but shall be made only after
consultation with the Borrower and Administrative Agent) that the making,
maintaining or continuation of its Offshore Rate Loans (i) has become unlawful
as a result of compliance by such Lender in good faith with any law, treaty,
governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or would conflict with any
such treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order not having the
force of law even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful)
or (ii) has become impracticable, or would cause such Lender material hardship,
as a result of contingencies occurring after the date of this Agreement which
materially and adversely affect the interbank Eurodollar market or the position
of such Lender in that market, then, and in any such event, such Lender shall be
an "AFFECTED LENDER" and it shall on that day give notice (by telefacsimile or
by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and Administrative Agent of
such determination (which


                                       79
<PAGE>

notice Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other applicable
Lender). Thereafter (a) the obligation of the Affected Lender to make Loans as,
or to convert Loans to, Offshore Rate Loans shall be suspended until such notice
shall be withdrawn by the Affected Lender, (b) to the extent such determination
by the Affected Lender relates to an Offshore Rate Loan then being requested by
a Borrower pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of
Conversion/Continuation, the Affected Lender shall make such Loan as (or convert
such Loan to, as the case may be) a Base Rate Loan, (c) the Affected Lender's
obligation to maintain its outstanding Offshore Rate Loans (the "AFFECTED
LOANS"), shall be terminated at the earlier to occur of the expiration of the
Interest Period then in effect with respect to the Affected Loans or when
required by law, and (d) the Affected Loans shall automatically convert into
applicable Base Rate Loans on the date of such termination. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, to the extent a determination by an Affected Lender as described
above relates to an Offshore Rate Loan then being requested by a Borrower
pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, such
Borrower shall have the option, subject to the provisions of subsection 2.6D, to
rescind such Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation as to all
Lenders by giving notice (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing)
to Administrative Agent of such rescission on the date on which the Affected
Lender gives notice of its determination as described above (which notice of
rescission Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other applicable
Lender). Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, nothing in
this subsection 2.6C shall affect the obligation of any Lender other than an
Affected Lender to make or maintain Loans as, or to convert Loans to, Offshore
Rate Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

     D. COMPENSATION FOR BREAKAGE OR NON-COMMENCEMENT OF INTEREST PERIODS. A
Borrower shall compensate each Lender, upon written request by that Lender
(which request shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting
such amounts), for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including,
without limitation, any interest paid by that Lender to lenders of funds
borrowed by it to make or carry its Offshore Rate Loans, and any loss, expense
or liability sustained by that Lender in connection with the liquidation or
re-employment of such funds) which that Lender may sustain: (i) if for any
reason (other than a default by that Lender) a borrowing of any Offshore Rate
Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or a
telephonic request for borrowing, or a conversion to or continuation of any
Offshore Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of
Conversion/Continuation or a telephonic request for conversion or continuation,
(ii) if any prepayment or other principal payment or any conversion of any of
its Offshore Rate Loans occurs on a date prior to the last day of an Interest
Period applicable to that Loan, (iii) if any prepayment of any of its Offshore
Rate Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by
the Borrower, or (iv) as a consequence of any other default by the Borrower in
the repayment of its Offshore Rate Loans when required by the terms of this
Agreement.

     E. BOOKING OF OFFSHORE RATE LOANS. Any Lender may make, carry or transfer
Offshore Rate Loans at, to, or for the account of any of its branch offices or
the office of an Affiliate of that Lender.

     F. ASSUMPTIONS CONCERNING FUNDING OF OFFSHORE RATE LOANS. Calculation of
all amounts payable to a Lender under this subsection 2.6 and under subsection
2.7A (as fully set forth in Annex A) shall be made as though that Lender had
actually funded each of its relevant Offshore Rate Loans through the purchase of
a Eurodollar deposit bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to clause
(i) of the definition of Adjusted Offshore Rate in an amount equal to the amount
of such Offshore Rate Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant
Interest Period and through the transfer of such Eurodollar deposit from an
offshore office of that Lender to a domestic office of that Lender; provided,
however, that each Lender may fund each of its Offshore Rate Loans in any manner
it sees fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the
purposes of calculating amounts payable under this subsection 2.6 and under
subsection 2.7A.

     G. OFFSHORE RATE LOANS AFTER DEFAULT. After the occurrence of and during
the continuation of a Potential Event of Default or an Event of Default, (i)
Borrowers may elect to have an Offshore Rate Loan denominated in an Offshore
Currency made or maintained as an Offshore Rate Loan, (ii) Borrowers may not
elect to have a Base Rate Loan denominated in Dollars converted to an Offshore
Rate Loan, after the expiration of any Interest Period then in effect for that
Loan, (iii) Borrowers may not elect to have an Offshore Rate Loan denominated in
Dollars maintained as an Offshore Rate Loan, and such Loan shall be converted
into a Base Rate Loan, and (iv) subject to the provisions of subsection 2.6D,
any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by any
Borrower with respect to a requested borrowing or conversion/continuation that
has not yet occurred shall be deemed to be rescinded by such Borrower.

forth in Annex A attached hereto and such Annex A is incorporated herein by this
reference.

SECTION 3. LETTERS OF CREDIT

3.1  ISSUANCE OF LETTERS OF CREDIT AND LENDERS' PURCHASE OF PARTICIPATIONS
     THEREIN.

     A. LETTERS OF CREDIT. In addition to Borrowers requesting that Lenders make
Revolving Loans pursuant to subsection 2.1A(ii) and that Swing Line Lender makes
Swing Line Loans pursuant to subsection 2.1A(iii), Borrowers may request, in
accordance with the provisions of this subsection 3.1, from time to time during
the period from the Effective Date to but excluding the date which is (x) the
fifth Business Day prior to the Commitment Termination Date (in the case of
Standby Letters of Credit) and (y) the thirtieth Business Day prior to the
Commitment Termination Date (in the case of Commercial Letters of Credit), that
one or more Lenders issue Letters of Credit payable on a sight basis for the
account of such Borrower for the purposes specified in the definitions of
Commercial Letters of Credit and Standby Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms
and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance upon the representations and
warranties of Borrowers set forth herein, any one or more Lenders may, but
(except as provided in subsection 3.1B(ii)) shall not be obligated to, issue
such Letters of Credit in accordance with the provisions of this subsection 3.1;
provided that Borrowers shall not request that any Lenders issue (and no Lender
shall issue):

          (i) any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, the
     Total Utilization of Tranche A Revolving Loan Commitments for Company would
     exceed (x) the Maximum Tranche A Revolving Loan Commitments then in effect
     or (y) the Borrowing Base then in effect;

          (ii) any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance,
     (x) the Total Utilization of Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitments for all
     Borrowers would exceed the Maximum Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitments for
     all Borrowers then in effect, or (y) the Total Utilization of Tranche B
     Revolving Loan Commitments for any Borrower would exceed the Maximum
     Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitments for such Borrower then in effect;

          (iii) any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance,
     (x) the Tranche A Letter of Credit Usage of Company plus the Tranche B
     Letter of Credit Usage of all Borrowers would exceed the Maximum Letter of
     Credit Amount, and (y) the Tranche B Letter of Credit Usage of any Borrower
     would exceed the Tranche B Letters of Credit Suballocation for such
     Borrower then in effect;

          (iv) any Standby Letter of Credit having an expiration date later than
     the earlier of (a) the date which is five (5) Business Days prior to the
     Commitment Termination Date and (b) the date which is one year from the
     date of issuance of such Standby Letter of Credit; provided that the
     immediately preceding clause (b) shall not prevent any Issuing Lender from
     agreeing that a Standby Letter of Credit will automatically be extended for
     one or more successive periods not to exceed one year each unless such
     Issuing Lender elects not to extend for any such additional period; and
     provided further that such Issuing Lender shall elect not to extend such
     Standby Letter of


                                       82
<PAGE>

     Credit if it has knowledge that an Event of Default has occurred and is
     continuing (and has not been waived in accordance with subsection 10.6) at
     the time such Issuing Lender must elect whether or not to allow such
     extension; or

          (v) any Commercial Letter of Credit having an expiration date (a)
     later than the earlier of (X) the date which is thirty (30) Business Days
     prior to the Revolving Commitment Termination Date and (Y) the date which
     is 180 days from the date of issuance of such Commercial Letter of Credit
     or (b) that is otherwise unacceptable to the applicable Issuing Lender in
     its reasonable discretion.

     B. MECHANICS OF ISSUANCE.

          (i) Request for Issuance. Whenever any Borrower desires the issuance
     of a Letter of Credit, it shall deliver to Administrative Agent a Request
     for Issuance of Letter of Credit in the form of Exhibit III annexed hereto
     no later than 12:00 Noon (New York time) at least two (2) Business Days, or
     such shorter period as may be agreed to by the Issuing Lender in any
     particular instance, in advance of the proposed date of issuance. The
     Request for Issuance of Letter of Credit shall specify (a) the proposed
     date of issuance (which shall be a Business Day), (b) the Type of Letter of
     Credit and whether the Letter of Credit is to be a Standby Letter of Credit
     or a Commercial Letter of Credit, (c) the face amount of the Letter of
     Credit expressed in Dollars or in a currency other than Dollars, (d) the
     expiration date of the Letter of Credit, (e) the name and address of the
     beneficiary, and (f) either the verbatim text of the proposed Letter of
     Credit or the proposed terms and conditions thereof, including a precise
     description of any documents to be presented by the beneficiary which, if
     presented by the beneficiary prior to the expiration date of the Letter of
     Credit, would require the Issuing Lender to make payment under the Letter
     of Credit; provided that the Issuing Lender, in its reasonable discretion,
     may require changes in the text of the proposed Letter of Credit or any
     such documents.

          Such Borrower shall notify the applicable Issuing Lender (and
     Administrative Agent, if Administrative Agent or one of its Affiliates is
     not such Issuing Lender) prior to the issuance of any Letter of Credit in
     the event that any of the matters to which it is required to certify in the
     applicable Request for Issuance of Letter of Credit is no longer true and
     correct as of the proposed date of issuance of such Letter of Credit, and
     upon the issuance of any Letter of Credit such Borrower shall be deemed to
     have re-certified, as of the date of such issuance, as to the matters to
     which it is required to certify in the applicable Request for Issuance of
     Letter of Credit.

          (ii) Determination of Issuing Lender. Upon receipt by Administrative
     Agent of a Request for Issuance of Letter of Credit pursuant to subsection
     3.1B(i) requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, in the event
     Administrative Agent or one of its Affiliates elects to issue such Letter
     of Credit, Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify Borrower, and
     Administrative Agent or such Affiliate shall be the Issuing Lender with
     respect thereto. In the event that Administrative Agent or one of its
     Affiliates, in the sole


                                       83
<PAGE>

     discretion of the Administrative Agent or such Affiliate, elects not to
     issue such Letter of Credit, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify
     Borrower, whereupon Borrower may request any other applicable Lender to
     issue such Letter of Credit by delivering to such Lender a copy of the
     applicable Request for Issuance of Letter of Credit. Any applicable Lender
     so requested to issue such Letter of Credit shall promptly notify Borrower
     and Administrative Agent whether or not, in its sole discretion, it has
     elected to issue such Letter of Credit, and any such applicable Lender
     which so elects to issue such Letter of Credit shall be the Issuing Lender
     with respect thereto. In the event that all other applicable Lenders shall
     have declined to issue such Letter of Credit, notwithstanding the prior
     election of Administrative Agent or its Affiliates not to issue such Letter
     of Credit, Administrative Agent or one of its Affiliates shall be obligated
     to issue such Letter of Credit and shall be the Issuing Lender with respect
     thereto, notwithstanding the fact that (x) with respect to any such Tranche
     A Letter of Credit, the Tranche A Letter of Credit Usage with respect to
     such Tranche A Letter of Credit and with respect to all other Tranche A
     Letters of Credit issued by the Administrative Agent or one of its
     Affiliates, when aggregated with Administrative Agent's outstanding
     Domestic Tranche A Revolving Loans and Tranche A Swing Line Loans, may
     exceed Administrative Agent's Domestic Tranche A Revolving Loan Commitments
     for such Borrower then in effect, or (y) with respect to any such Tranche B
     Letter of Credit, the Tranche B Letter of Credit Usage with respect to such
     Tranche B Letter of Credit and with respect to all other Tranche B Letters
     of Credit issued by the Administrative Agent or its Affiliates, when
     aggregated with Administrative Agent's outstanding Tranche B Revolving
     Loans and Tranche B Swing Line Loans, may exceed Administrative Agent's
     Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitments for such Borrower then in effect.

          (iii) Issuance of Letter of Credit. Upon satisfaction or waiver (in
     accordance with subsection 10.6) of the conditions set forth in subsection
     4.3, the Issuing Lender shall issue the requested Letter of Credit in
     accordance with the Issuing Lender's standard operating procedures.

          (iv) Notification to Lenders. Upon the issuance of or amendment to any
     Standby Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender shall promptly
     notify the applicable Borrower and Administrative Agent of such issuance or
     amendment and which notice shall be accompanied by a copy of such Standby
     Letter of Credit or amendment. Promptly after receipt of such notice (or,
     if Administrative Agent or one of its Affiliates is the Issuing Lender,
     together with such notice), Administrative Agent shall notify each
     applicable Lender of such issuance or modification and the amount of such
     Lender's respective participation in such Standby Letter of Credit or
     amendment, as determined in accordance with subsection 3.1C. Upon request
     of any applicable Lender, Administrative Agent will furnish such Lender
     with copies of any such issuance or amendment.

          (v) Reports to Lenders. In the event that the Issuing Lender is other
     than Administrative Agent or one of its Affiliates, such Issuing Lender
     will send by facsimile transmission to Administrative Agent, promptly on
     the first Business Day of each week,


                                       84
<PAGE>

     its daily maximum amount available to be drawn under the Commercial Letters
     of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender for the previous week.
     Administrative Agent shall deliver to each Lender upon each calendar month
     end, and upon each Commercial Letter of Credit fee payment, a report
     setting forth the daily maximum amount available to be drawn for all
     Issuing Lenders during such period.

     C. REVOLVING LENDERS' PURCHASE OF PARTICIPATIONS IN LETTERS OF CREDIT.
Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit for the benefit of
Company, Goss UK, Goss France or Goss Japan, as the case may be, each applicable
Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby agrees to, have irrevocably purchased from
the Issuing Lender a participation in such Letter of Credit and drawings
thereunder in an amount equal to such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the applicable
Revolving Loan Commitment of the maximum amount which is or at any time may
become available to be drawn thereunder. Upon satisfaction of the conditions set
forth in subsection 4.1, the Existing Letters of Credit shall, effective as of
the Effective Date, become Tranche B Letters of Credit under this Agreement to
the same extent as if initially issued hereunder and each Domestic Tranche B
Lender, UK Lender, French Lender and/or Japanese Lender, as the case may be,
shall be deemed to have irrevocably purchased from the Issuing Lender(s) of such
Existing Letters of Credit a participation in such applicable Tranche B Letters
of Credit and drawings thereunder in an amount equal to such Lender's Pro Rata
Share of the maximum amount which is or at any time may become available to be
drawn thereunder. All such Existing Letters of Credit which become Tranche B
Letters of Credit under this Agreement shall be fully secured by the Collateral
commencing on the Effective Date to the same extent as if initially issued
hereunder on such date.

3.2 LETTER OF CREDIT FEES.

     Each Borrower agrees to pay the following amounts with respect to Letters
of Credit issued hereunder for such Borrower's account:

          (i) with respect to each Standby Letter of Credit, (a) a fronting fee,
     payable in Dollars directly to the applicable Issuing Lender for its own
     account, equal to the greater of (X) $500 per year per Letter of Credit and
     (Y) 0.25% per annum of the Dollar Equivalent of the daily maximum amount
     available to be drawn under such Standby Letter of Credit, and (b) a letter
     of credit fee, payable in Dollars to Administrative Agent for the account
     of Lenders, equal to (x) the Applicable Offshore Rate Margin multiplied by
     (y) the Dollar Equivalent of the daily maximum amount available to be drawn
     under such Standby Letter of Credit, in each case payable in arrears on and
     to (but excluding) the date that is three Business Days after each March
     31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year and computed on the
     basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed;

          (ii) with respect to each Commercial Letter of Credit, (a) a fronting
     fee, payable in Dollars directly to the applicable Issuing Lender for its
     own account, equal to the greater of (X) $500 per year per Letter of Credit
     and (Y) 0.25% per annum of the

                                       85
<PAGE>

     Dollar Equivalent of the daily maximum amount available to be drawn under
     such Commercial Letter of Credit, in each case payable in arrears on and to
     (but excluding) the date that is three Business Days after each March 31,
     June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year and computed on the
     basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed; and

          (iii) with respect to the issuance, amendment or transfer of each
     Letter of Credit and each payment of a drawing made thereunder (without
     duplication of the fees payable under clauses (i) and (ii) above),
     documentary and processing charges payable directly to the applicable
     Issuing Lender for its own account in accordance with such Issuing Lender's
     standard schedule for such charges in effect at the time of such issuance,
     amendment, transfer or payment, as the case may be.

     For purposes of calculating any fees payable under clauses (i) or (ii) of
this subsection 3.2, (1) the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to
be drawn under any Letter of Credit shall be determined as of the close of
business on any date of determination, (2) any adjustments in the Applicable
Offshore Rate Margin shall be made in accordance with subsection 2.2A, (3) any
amount which is denominated in a currency other than Dollars shall be determined
based on the applicable Exchange Rate for such currency as of each first
Business Day after each March 31, June 30, September 30 or December 31, as the
case may be, of each year, and (4) Administrative Agent shall provide to
Borrowers on each first Business Day after each March 31, June 30, September 30
or December 31 of each year a report specifying the Letter of Credit fees
payable by each Borrower and including the calculations of such fees and the
Exchange Rate used, and Borrowers shall pay such fees no later than two Business
Days after delivery of such report. Promptly upon receipt by Administrative
Agent of any amount described in clause (i)(b) and (ii)(b) of this subsection
3.2, Administrative Agent shall distribute to each other applicable Lender its
Pro Rata Share of such amount. With respect to Existing Letters of Credit, the
fees described in clauses (i) and (ii) above shall accrue from and including the
Effective Date.

3.3 DRAWINGS AND REIMBURSEMENT OF AMOUNTS DRAWN UNDER LETTERS OF CREDIT.

     A. RESPONSIBILITY OF ISSUING LENDER WITH RESPECT TO DRAWINGS. In
determining whether to honor any drawing under any Letter of Credit by the
beneficiary thereof, the Issuing Lender shall be responsible only to exercise
reasonable care to determine that the documents required to be delivered under
such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they substantially comply on
their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit.

     B. REIMBURSEMENT BY BORROWERS OF AMOUNTS DRAWN UNDER LETTERS OF CREDIT. In
the event an Issuing Lender has determined to honor a drawing under a Letter of
Credit issued by it, (i) such Issuing Lender shall immediately notify the
Borrower and


                                       86
<PAGE>

Administrative Agent and (ii) Borrower shall reimburse such Issuing Lender on or
before the Business Day immediately following the date on which such drawing is
honored (the "REIMBURSEMENT DATE") in an amount in same day funds in Dollars
(which amount, in the case of a drawing under a Letter of Credit which is
denominated in a currency other than Dollars, shall be calculated by reference
to the applicable Exchange Rate) equal to the amount of such drawing; provided
that, anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, (i)
unless the Borrower shall have notified Administrative Agent and such Issuing
Lender prior to 12:00 Noon (New York time) on the date such drawing is honored
that such Borrower intends to reimburse such Issuing Lender for the amount of
such drawing with funds other than the proceeds of Revolving Loans, such
Borrower shall be deemed to have given a timely Notice of Borrowing to
Administrative Agent requesting Lenders to make applicable Revolving Loans that
are (x) Base Rate Loans (in the case of Company) or (y) Offshore Rate Loans with
an Interest Period of one week (in the case of Goss UK, Goss France or Goss
Japan) on the Reimbursement Date in an amount in Dollars (which amount, in the
case of a drawing under a Letter of Credit which is denominated in a currency
other than Dollars, shall be calculated by reference to the applicable Exchange
Rate) equal to the amount of such drawing and (ii) subject to satisfaction or
waiver of the conditions specified in subsection 4.2C, Lenders shall, on the
Reimbursement Date, make applicable Revolving Loans denominated in Dollars that
are (x) Base Rate Loans (in the case of Company) or (y) Offshore Rate Loans with
an Interest Period of one week (in the case of Goss UK, Goss France or Goss
Japan) in the amount of such drawing, the proceeds of which shall be applied
directly by Administrative Agent to reimburse such Issuing Lender for the amount
of such drawing; and provided further that if for any reason proceeds of
applicable Revolving Loans are not received by such Issuing Lender on the
Reimbursement Date in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing, such
Borrower shall reimburse such Issuing Lender, on demand, in an amount in same
day funds equal to the excess of the amount of such drawing over the aggregate
amount of such applicable Revolving Loans, if any, which are so received.
Nothing in this subsection 3.3B shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its
obligation to make applicable Revolving Loans on the terms and conditions set
forth in this Agreement, and such Borrower shall retain any and all rights it
may have against any Lender resulting from the failure of such Lender to make
such applicable Revolving Loans under this subsection 3.3B.

     C. PAYMENT BY LENDERS OF UNREIMBURSED DRAWINGS UNDER LETTERS OF CREDIT.

          (i) Payment by Lenders. In the event that the Borrower shall fail for
     any reason to reimburse any Issuing Lender as provided in subsection 3.3B
     in an amount (calculated in the case of a drawing under a Letter of Credit
     denominated in an Offshore Currency, by reference to the applicable
     Exchange Rate) equal to the amount of any drawing honored by such Issuing
     Lender under a Letter of Credit issued by it, such Issuing Lender shall
     promptly notify each other Lender having a Revolving Loan Commitment of
     such Type, of the unreimbursed amount of such drawing and having a
     Revolving Loan Commitment of such Type, of such other Lender's respective
     participation therein based on such Lender's Pro Rata Share. Each such
     Lender shall make available to such Issuing Lender an amount equal to its
     respective participation in


                                       87
<PAGE>

     same day funds in Dollars, at the office of such Issuing Lender specified
     in such notice, not later than 12:00 Noon (New York time) on the first
     business day (under the laws of the jurisdiction in which such office of
     such Issuing Lender is located) after the date notified by such Issuing
     Lender. In the event that any such Lender fails to make available to such
     Issuing Lender on such business day the amount of such Lender's
     participation in such Letter of Credit or the amount of the unreimbursed
     drawing regarding such Letter of Credit as provided in this subsection
     3.3C, such Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on
     demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at the rate
     customarily used by such Issuing Lender for the correction of errors among
     banks for three Business Days and thereafter at the Base Rate. Nothing in
     this subsection 3.3C shall be deemed to prejudice the right of any such
     Lender to recover from any Issuing Lender any amounts made available by
     such Lender to such Issuing Lender pursuant to this subsection 3.3C in the
     event that it is determined by the final judgment of a court of competent
     jurisdiction that the payment with respect to a Letter of Credit by such
     Issuing Lender in respect of which payment was made by such Lender
     constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a
     final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) on the part of such
     Issuing Lender.

          (ii) Distribution to Lenders of Reimbursements Received From
     Borrowers. In the event any Issuing Lender shall have been reimbursed by
     other Lenders pursuant to subsection 3.3C(i) for all or any portion of any
     drawing honored by such Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit issued by
     it, such Issuing Lender shall distribute to each other Lender which has
     paid all amounts payable by it under subsection 3.3C(i) with respect to
     such drawing such other Lender's Pro Rata Share of all payments
     subsequently received by such Issuing Lender from a Borrower in
     reimbursement of such drawing when such payments are received. Any such
     distribution shall be made to a Lender at its primary address set forth
     below its name on the appropriate signature page hereof or at such other
     address as such Lender may request.

     D. INTEREST ON AMOUNTS DRAWN UNDER LETTERS OF CREDIT.

          (i) Payment of Interest by Borrowers. Each Borrower agrees to pay to
     Issuing Lender, with respect to drawings made under any Letters of Credit
     issued by such Issuing Lender at such Borrower's request, interest on the
     amount paid by such Issuing Lender in respect of each such drawing from the
     date of such drawing to but excluding the date such amount is reimbursed by
     the Borrower (including any such reimbursement out of the proceeds of
     Revolving Loans pursuant to subsection 3.3B) at a rate equal to (a) for the
     period from the date of such drawing to but excluding the Reimbursement
     Date, the rate then in effect under this Agreement with respect to
     Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans and (b) thereafter, a rate which
     is 2.00% per annum in excess of the rate of interest otherwise payable
     under this Agreement with respect to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate
     Loans. Interest payable pursuant to this subsection 3.3D(i) shall be
     computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days
     elapsed in the


                                       88
<PAGE>

     period during which it accrues and shall be payable on demand or, if no
     demand is made, on the date on which the related drawing under a Letter of
     Credit is reimbursed in full.

          (ii) Distribution of Interest Payments by Issuing Lender. Promptly
     upon receipt by any Issuing Lender of any payment of interest pursuant to
     subsection 3.3D(i) with respect to a drawing under a Letter of Credit
     issued by it, (a) such Issuing Lender shall distribute to each other
     applicable Lender, out of the interest received by such Issuing Lender in
     respect of the period from the date of such drawing to but excluding the

made by Lenders pursuant to subsection 3.3B and the obligations of Lenders under
subsection 3.3C(i) shall be unconditional and irrevocable, and any such payments
shall be made strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all
circumstances including, without limitation, any of the following circumstances:

          (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit;

          (ii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which
     any Borrower or any Lender may have at any time against a beneficiary or

     Person or, in the case of a Lender, against any Borrower, whether in

<PAGE>

          (iii) any draft or document presented under any Letter of Credit
     proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or
     any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

          (iv) payment by the applicable Issuing Lender under any Letter of
     Credit against presentation of a draft or document which does not
     substantially comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit;

          (viii) the fact that an Event of Default or a Potential Event of
     Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

provided, in each case, that payment by the applicable Issuing Lender under the
applicable Letter of Credit shall not have constituted gross negligence or
willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender under the circumstances in question
(as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction).

3.5 INDEMNIFICATION; NATURE OF ISSUING LENDERS' DUTIES.

     A. INDEMNIFICATION. In addition to amounts payable as provided in
subsection 3.6, each Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save
harmless each Issuing Lender from and against any and all claims, demands,
liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable
fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel and reasonable allocated costs of
internal counsel) which such Issuing Lender may incur or be subject to as a
consequence, direct or indirect, of (i) the issuance of any Letter of Credit by
such Issuing Lender, other than as a result of (a) the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender as determined by a final judgment of a
court of competent jurisdiction or (b) subject to the following clause (ii), the
wrongful dishonor by such Issuing Lender of a proper demand for payment made
under any Letter of Credit issued by it or (ii) the failure of such Issuing
Lender to honor a drawing under any such Letter of Credit as a result of any act
or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any Governmental Authority (all
such acts or omissions herein called "GOVERNMENTAL ACTS").

     B. NATURE OF ISSUING LENDERS' DUTIES. As between any Borrower on the one
hand and any Issuing Lender on the other hand, Borrower assumes all risks of the
acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit issued by such


                                       90
<PAGE>

Issuing Lender by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In
furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, such Issuing Lender shall
not be responsible (absent a determination of a court of competent jurisdiction
of gross negligence or willful misconduct by Issuing Lender) for: (i) the form,
validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document
submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of
any such Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all
respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) the
validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or
purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or
benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to
be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) failure of the beneficiary of
any such Letter of Credit to comply fully with any conditions required in order
to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or
delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph,
telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in
interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or
otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any such
Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the
beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under
such Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the
control of such Issuing Lender, including without limitation any Governmental
Acts, and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of,
any of such Issuing Lender's rights or powers hereunder.

     In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific
provisions set forth in the first paragraph of this subsection 3.5B, any action
taken or omitted by any Issuing Lender under or in connection with the Letters
of Credit issued by it or any documents and certificates delivered thereunder,
if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put such Issuing Lender under any
resulting liability to any Borrower.

     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this subsection 3.5,
each Borrower shall retain any and all rights it may have against any Issuing
Lender for any liability arising solely out of the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of such Issuing Lender, as determined by a final judgment of a court
of competent jurisdiction or out of a wrongful dishonor by Issuing Lender of a
proper demand for payment made under any Letter of Credit.

3.6     INCREASED COSTS AND TAXES RELATING TO LETTERS OF CREDIT.

     In the event that any Issuing Lender or Lender shall determine (which
determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding
upon all parties hereto) that any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation
or order, or any change therein or in the interpretation, administration or
application thereof (including the introduction of any new law, treaty or
governmental rule, regulation or order), or any determination of a court or
governmental authority, in each case that becomes effective after the date
hereof, or compliance by any Issuing Lender or Lender with any guideline,
request or directive issued or made after the date hereof by any central bank or
other governmental or quasi-governmental authority (whether or not having the
force of law):


                                       91
<PAGE>

          (i) subjects such Issuing Lender or Lender (or its applicable lending
     or letter of credit office) to any additional Tax (other than any Tax on
     the overall net income of such Issuing Lender or Lender) with respect to
     the issuing or maintaining of any Letters of Credit or the purchasing or
     maintaining of any participations therein or any other obligations under
     this Section 3, whether directly or by such being imposed on or suffered by
     any particular Issuing Lender;

          (ii) imposes, modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including
     without limitation any marginal, emergency, supplemental, special or other
     reserve), special deposit, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance or similar
     requirement in respect of any Letters of Credit issued by any Issuing
     Lender or participations therein purchased by any Lender; or

          (iii) imposes any other condition (other than with respect to a Tax
     matter) on or affecting such Issuing Lender or Lender (or its applicable
     lending or letter of credit office) regarding this Section 3 or any Letter
     of Credit or any participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Issuing
Lender or Lender of agreeing to issue, issuing or maintaining any Letter of
Credit or agreeing to purchase, purchasing or maintaining any participation
therein or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Issuing Lender or
Lender (or its applicable lending or letter of credit office) with respect
thereto in an amount deemed by such Issuing Lender or Lender (in its sole
discretion) to be material; then, in any case, such Borrower shall promptly pay
to such Issuing Lender or Lender, upon receipt of the statement referred to in
the next sentence, such additional amount or amounts as may be necessary to
compensate such Issuing Lender or Lender for any such increased cost or
reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder. Such Issuing Lender or
Lender shall deliver to the Borrower a written statement, setting forth in
reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such
Issuing Lender or Lender under this subsection 3.6, which statement shall be
conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.

Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds to effect such repair, restoration or
replacement, and (B) in the event the aggregate amount of such Net Insurance/
Condemnation Proceeds exceeds $2,500,000, hold such proceeds in a cash

to, apply such insurance proceeds to prepay the Loans as provided in subsection
2.4B(iii)(b), and (b) if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing or to the extent that neither the applicable Borrower nor any of its
Subsidiaries intends to use any such Net Insurance/ Condemnation Proceeds to

under all Letters of Credit then outstanding (whether or not any beneficiary
under any such Letter of Credit shall have presented, or shall be entitled at
such time to present, the drafts or other documents or certificates required to
draw under such Letter of Credit), and (c) all other Obligations shall
automatically become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand,
protest or other requirements of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly
waived by each Borrower, and the obligation of each Lender to make any Loan, the
obligation or right of any Issuing Lender to issue any Letter of Credit
hereunder shall thereupon terminate, and (ii) upon the occurrence and during the
continuation of any other Event of Default, Administrative Agent shall, upon the

any time within 60 days after an acceleration of the Loans pursuant to clause
(ii) of such paragraph each applicable Borrower shall pay all arrears of
interest and all payments on account of principal which shall have become due
otherwise than as a result of such acceleration (with interest on principal and,
to the extent permitted by law, on overdue interest, at the rates specified in

than non-payment of the principal of and accrued interest on the Loans, in each

remedied or waived pursuant to subsection 10.6, then the applicable Requisite
Class Lenders, by written notice to each applicable Borrower, may at their
option rescind and annul such acceleration and its consequences; but such action
shall not affect any subsequent Event of Default or Potential Event of Default
or impair any right consequent thereon. The provisions of this paragraph are
intended merely to bind applicable Lenders to a decision which may be made at
the election of Requisite Class Lenders and are not intended to benefit any
Borrower and do not grant any Borrower the right to require applicable Lenders
to rescind or annul any acceleration hereunder, even if the conditions set forth

SECTION 9. ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

9.1  APPOINTMENT.

     BTCo and its applicable Affiliates are hereby appointed by each Lender as
the Administrative Agent so appointed hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents, and each such Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to act as
its agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. Administrative Agent agrees to act upon the express conditions
contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as applicable. The
provisions of this Section 9 are solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent
and Lenders and Borrowers shall have no rights as a third party beneficiary of
any of the provisions thereof. In performing its functions and duties under this
Agreement, Administrative Agent shall act solely as an agent of Lenders and does
not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or
relationship of agency or trust with or for any Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries.

9.2  POWERS AND DUTIES; GENERAL IMMUNITY.

     A. POWERS; DUTIES SPECIFIED. Each Lender irrevocably authorizes
Administrative Agent to take such action on such Lender's behalf and to exercise
such powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents as
are specifically delegated or granted to Administrative Agent by the terms
hereof and thereof, together with such powers, rights and remedies as are
reasonably incidental thereto. Administrative Agent shall have only those duties
and responsibilities that are expressly specified in this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents. Administrative Agent may exercise such powers, rights and
remedies and perform such duties by or through its agents or employees.
Administrative Agent shall not have, by reason of this Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender; and
nothing in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, expressed or
implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon
Administrative Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein.

     B. NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR CERTAIN MATTERS. Administrative Agent shall not be
responsible to any Lender for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness,
validity, enforceability, collectibility or sufficiency of this Agreement or any
other Loan Document or for any representations, warranties, recitals or
statements made herein or therein or made in any written or oral statements or
in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports or


                                      148
<PAGE>

certificates or any other documents furnished or made by Administrative Agent to
Lenders or by or on behalf of any Borrower to Administrative Agent or any Lender
in connection with the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby
or for the financial condition or business affairs of any Borrower or any other
Person liable for the payment of any Obligations, nor shall Administrative Agent
be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any
of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained in any
of the Loan Documents or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or the use
of the Letters of Credit or as to the existence or possible existence of any
Event of Default or Potential Event of Default. Anything contained in this
Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, Administrative Agent shall not have
any liability arising from confirmations of the amount of outstanding Loans or
the Letter of Credit Usage or the component amounts thereof.

     C. EXCULPATORY PROVISIONS. Neither Administrative Agent nor any of their
officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable to Lenders for any
action taken or omitted by Administrative Agent under or in connection with any
of the Loan Documents except to the extent caused by an Agent's gross negligence
or willful misconduct. If Administrative Agent shall request instructions from
Lenders with respect to any act or action (including the failure to take an
action) in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents,
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such
action unless and until Administrative Agent shall have received instructions
from Requisite Lenders. Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing,
(i) Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected
in relying, upon any communication, instrument or document believed by it to be
genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper person or
persons, and shall be entitled to rely and shall be protected in relying on
opinions and judgments of attorneys (who may be attorneys for Borrowers and
their Subsidiaries), accountants, experts and other professional advisors
selected by it; and (ii) no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever
against Administrative Agent as a result of Administrative Agent acting or
(where so instructed) refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of Requisite Lenders.
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from exercising any power,
discretion or authority vested in it under this Agreement or any of the other
Loan Documents unless and until it has obtained the instructions of Requisite
Lenders.

     D. ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT ENTITLED TO ACT AS LENDER. The agency hereby
created shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or
impose any duties or obligations upon, Administrative Agent in their individual
capacity as a Lender hereunder. With respect to their participation in the Loans
and the Letters of Credit, Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and
powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were
not performing the duties and functions delegated to it hereunder, and the term
"Lender" or "Lenders" or any similar term shall, unless the context clearly
otherwise indicates, include Administrative Agent, in each case in its
individual capacity. Administrative Agent and each of its respective Affiliates
may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of
banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with any Borrower or any of
its Affiliates as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may
accept fees and other


                                      149
<PAGE>

consideration from any Borrower for services in connection with this Agreement
and otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders.

9.3  REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR APPRAISAL OF
     CREDITWORTHINESS.

     Each Lender represents and warrants that it has made its own independent
investigation of the financial condition and affairs of each Borrower and its
Subsidiaries in connection with the making of the Loans and the issuance of
Letters of Credit hereunder and that it has made and shall continue to make its
own appraisal of the creditworthiness of each Borrower and its Subsidiaries.
Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility, either initially
or on a continuing basis, to make any such investigation or any such appraisal
on behalf of Lenders or to provide any Lender with any credit or other
information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the
making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter, and Administrative Agent
shall not have any responsibility with respect to the accuracy of or the
completeness of any information provided to Lenders.

9.4  RIGHT TO INDEMNITY.

     Each Lender, in proportion to its Pro Rata Share, severally agrees to
indemnify Administrative Agent and its respective officers, directors, employees
or agents to the extent that Administrative Agent and such officers, directors,
employees or agents shall not have been reimbursed by Borrowers, for and against
any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits and reasonable costs and expenses (including, without
limitation, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements) or disbursements of any
kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted
against Administrative Agent and such officers, directors, employees or agents
in exercising its or their powers, rights and remedies or performing its or
their duties hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or otherwise in its or
their capacity as Administrative Agent or as an officer, director, employee or
agent of Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents; 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
Administrative Agent's or such officer's, director's, employee's or agent's
gross negligence or willful misconduct. If any indemnity furnished to
Administrative Agent or any such officer, director, employee or agent for any
purpose shall, in the opinion of Administrative Agent or such officer, director,
employee or agent be insufficient or become impaired, Administrative Agent or
such officer, director, employee or agent may call for additional indemnity and
cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional
indemnity is furnished.

9.5  SUCCESSOR AGENT.

     Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving 30 days' prior
written notice thereof to Lenders and each Borrower, and Administrative Agent
may be removed at any time with or without cause by an instrument or concurrent
instruments in writing delivered to


                                      150
<PAGE>

each Borrower and Administrative Agent, as the case may be, and signed by
Requisite Lenders. Upon any such notice of resignation or any such removal,
Requisite Lenders shall have the right, upon five Business Days' notice to each
Borrower, to appoint a successor Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of
any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative
Agent that successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become
vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or
removed Administrative Agent and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent
shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After
any retiring or removed Administrative Agent's resignation or removal hereunder
as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its
benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was
Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

9.6  COLLATERAL DOCUMENTS AND GUARANTIES.

     Each Lender hereby further authorizes Administrative Agent to enter into
each Collateral Document as secured party on behalf of and for the benefit of
Lenders and agrees to be bound by the terms of each Collateral Document;
provided that, subject to any provision of subsection 10.6 requiring the consent
of any additional Lenders, Administrative Agent shall not enter into or consent
to any amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision contained
in any Collateral Document or any Guaranty without the prior consent of
Requisite Lenders, but Administrative Agent may (i) release any Lien covering
any items of Collateral that are the subject of a sale or other disposition of
assets permitted by this Agreement or to which Requisite Lenders have consented
and (ii) release any Guarantor (other than any Borrower or New Holdings) from
its Guaranty if all of the capital stock of such Guarantor is sold to a Person
that is not any Affiliate of Company pursuant to a sale or other disposition
permitted hereunder or to which Requisite Lenders have consented. Anything
contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, each
Lender agrees that no Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon
any of the Collateral under any Collateral Document or to enforce any of the
Guaranties, it being understood and agreed that all rights and remedies under
the Collateral Documents and the Guaranties may be exercised solely by
Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders in accordance with the terms
thereof.

     It is hereby specified that the obligations of the Company under this
Agreement shall be substituted in lieu of its obligations resulting from the
Existing Credit Agreement and that therefore Administrative Agent hereby
reserves, as provided under Article 1278 of French Civil Code, as security for
the obligations of the Company under this Agreement, the benefit, of the
security interest created by the Share Pledge Agreement dated October 15, 1996
as amended on January 29, 1998 among Company and Administrative Agent relating
to the pledge of Goss France's shares by Company.

     It is hereby specified that the obligations of Goss France under this
Agreement shall be substituted in lieu of its obligations resulting from the
Existing Credit Agreement and that therefore Administrative Agent hereby
reserves, as provided under Article 1278 of French Civil Code, as security for
the obligations of Goss France under this Agreement, the benefit, of


                                      151
<PAGE>

the security interest created by the Trademark Pledge Agreement date January 29,
1998, among Goss France and Administrative Agent.

9.7  DOCUMENTATION AGENT.

     Any Lender identified on the facing page, the introduction, the signature
pages or in any provision of this Agreement as "documentation agent" shall have
no right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document other those applicable to all Lenders as
such. Without limiting the foregoing, any Lender so identified as "documentation
agent" shall not have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any
Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on
any of Lenders so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in
taking or not taking action hereunder.

SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS

10.1 ASSIGNMENTS AND PARTICIPATIONS IN LOANS AND LETTERS OF CREDIT.

     A. GENERAL. Subject to subsection 10.1B, each Lender shall have the right
at any time to (i) sell, assign or transfer to any Eligible Assignee, or (ii)
sell participations to any Person in, all or any part of its Commitments or any
Loan or Loans made by it or its Letters of Credit or participations therein or
any other interest herein or in any other Obligations owed to it; provided that
no such sale, assignment, transfer or participation shall, without the consent
of Company, require Company to file a registration statement with the Securities
and Exchange Commission or apply to qualify such sale, assignment, transfer or
participation under the securities laws of any state; provided further that no
such sale, assignment or transfer described in clause (i) above shall be
effective unless and until an Assignment Agreement effecting such sale,
assignment or transfer shall have been accepted by Administrative Agent and
recorded in the Register as provided in subsection 10.1B(ii); and provided
further that no such sale, assignment, transfer or participation of any Letter
of Credit or any participation therein may be made separately from a sale,
assignment, transfer or participation of a corresponding interest in the
Revolving Loan Commitment and the Revolving Loans of the Lender effecting such
sale, assignment, transfer or participation. Except as otherwise provided in
this subsection 10.1, no Lender shall, as between Borrowers and such Lender, be
relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any sale, assignment
or transfer of, or any granting of participations in, all or any part of its
Commitments or the Loans, the Letters of Credit or participations therein, or
the other Obligations owed to such Lender.

     B. ASSIGNMENTS.

          (i) Amounts and Terms of Assignments. Each Commitment, Loan, Letter of
     Credit or participation therein, or other Obligation may (a) be assigned in
     any amount to another Lender, or to an Affiliate of the assigning Lender or
     another Lender, with the


                                      152
<PAGE>

     giving of notice to Company and Administrative Agent or (b) be assigned in
     an aggregate amount of not less than $5,000,000 (or such lesser amount as
     shall constitute the aggregate amount of the Commitments, Loans, Letters of
     Credit and participations therein, and other Obligations of the assigning
     Lender) to any other Eligible Assignee with the consent of Company if there
     has not occurred and is then continuing an Event of Default and of
     Administrative Agent and, in the case of an assignment of an Indemnity
     Amount or an Indemnity Participation, the consent of Administrative Agent
     (which consent of Company and Administrative Agent shall not be
     unreasonably withheld); provided that any such assignment by a Lender in
     accordance with either clause (a) or (b) above (x) of any Domestic Tranche
     A Revolving Loan Commitment, any Domestic Tranche A Revolving Loan or any
     Tranche A Letter of Credit shall effect a pro rata assignment of each such
     Type of Commitment and each such Type of Loan of the assigning Lender and
     (y) of any Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitment, any Term Loan Commitment,
     any Tranche B Revolving Loans, any Term Loans or any Tranche B Letters of
     Credit shall effect a pro rata assignment of each such Type of Commitment
     and each such Type of Loan of the assigning Lender, and in the event that
     any such assigning Lender is an Indemnifying Lender, shall also effect a
     pro rata assignment of any Indemnity Participation and Indemnity Amount;
     provided further that notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that an
     Indemnifying Lender is making an assignment to any other Lender or Eligible
     Assignee, which Lender or Eligible Assignee desires to become a UK Lender,
     a French Lender or a Japanese Lender hereunder, as the case may be,
     Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assign to such other Lender or
     Eligible Assignee, without making a pro rata assignment of any other Type
     of Commitment or Type of Loan of Administrative Agent, that portion of its
     UK Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitment, its French Tranche B Revolving Loan
     Commitment or its Japanese Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitment, as the case
     may be, which represents the portion of the Indemnity Participation and
     Indemnity Amount being assigned to such other Lender or Eligible Assignee
     by such Indemnifying Lender, and upon such assignment by Administrative
     Agent, such other Lender or Eligible Assignee shall become a UK Lender, a
     French Lender or a Japanese Lender hereunder, as the case may be. To the
     extent of any such assignment in accordance with either clause (a) or (b)
     above, the assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations with
     respect to its Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or participations
     therein, or other Obligations or the portion thereof so assigned. The
     parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative
     Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment
     Agreement, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, and
     with such forms, certificates or other evidence, if any, with respect to
     any withholding tax matters as the assignee under such Assignment Agreement
     may be required to deliver to Administrative Agent or the appropriate
     persons, as the case may be, pursuant to subsection 2.7B(iii)(a) (as fully
     set forth in Annex A). Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and
     recordation, from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment
     Agreement, (y) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the
     extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it
     pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, shall have the rights and
     obligations of a Lender hereunder and



                                      153
<PAGE>

     (z) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and
     obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment
     Agreement, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under
     this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment Agreement covering all or
     the remaining portion of an assigning Lender's rights and obligations under
     this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto; provided
     that, anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary
     notwithstanding, if such Lender is the Issuing Lender with respect to any
     outstanding Letters of Credit such Lender shall continue to have all rights
     and obligations of an Issuing Lender with respect to such Letters of Credit
     until the cancellation or expiration of such Letters of Credit and the
     reimbursement of any amounts drawn thereunder). The Commitments hereunder
     shall be modified to reflect the Commitment of such assignee and any
     remaining Commitment of such assigning Lender and, if any such assignment
     occurs after the issuance of the Notes hereunder, the assigning Lender
     shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as promptly thereafter
     as practicable, surrender its applicable Notes to Administrative Agent for
     cancellation, and thereupon new Notes shall be issued to the assignee
     and/or to the assigning Lender, substantially in the form of Exhibit IV,
     Exhibit V, Exhibit VI or Exhibit VII annexed hereto, as the case may be,
     with appropriate insertions, to reflect the new Commitments and/or
     outstanding Loans, as the case may be, of the assignee and/or the assigning
     Lender.

          (ii) Acceptance by Administrative Agent; Recordation in Register;
     Recording Fees in Japan. Upon its receipt of an Assignment Agreement
     executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee representing that it is an
     Eligible Assignee, together with the processing and recordation fee
     referred to in subsection 10.1B(i) and any forms, certificates or other
     evidence with respect to any withholding tax matters that such assignee may
     be required to deliver to Administrative Agent or the appropriate persons,
     as the case may be, pursuant to subsection 2.7B(iii) (as fully set forth in
     Annex A), Administrative Agent shall, if Administrative Agent and Company
     have consented to the assignment evidenced thereby (in each case to the
     extent such consent is required pursuant to subsection 10.1B(i)), (a)
     accept such Assignment Agreement by executing a counterpart thereof as
     provided therein (which acceptance shall evidence any required consent of
     Administrative Agent to such assignment), (b) record the information
     contained therein in the Register, and (c) give prompt notice thereof to
     Company. Administrative Agent shall maintain a copy of each Assignment
     Agreement delivered to and accepted by it as provided in this subsection
     10.1B(ii). Each Eligible Assignee shall be solely responsible for all fees,
     costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney fees, costs and expenses
     incurred by Administrative Agent) relating to the registering and recording
     the security interests of such Eligible Assignee with respect to any
     Mortgages in Japan.

     C. PARTICIPATIONS. The holder of any participation (other than an Indemnity
Participation), other than an Affiliate of the Lender granting such
participation, shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to
take any action hereunder except action directly affecting (i) the extension of
the scheduled final maturity date of any Loan allocated to such


                                      154
<PAGE>

participation or (ii) a reduction of the principal amount of or the rate of
interest payable on any Loan or fees payable on any Letter of Credit allocated
to such participation, and all amounts payable by Borrowers hereunder (including
without limitation amounts payable to such Lender pursuant to subsections 2.6D,
2.7 and 3.6) shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such
participation. Each Borrower and each Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees
that, solely for purposes of subsections 10.4 and 10.5, (a) any participation
will give rise to a direct obligation of such Borrower to the participant and
(b) the participant shall be considered to be a "Lender".

     D. ASSIGNMENTS TO FEDERAL RESERVE BANKS. In addition to the assignments and
participations permitted under the foregoing provisions of this subsection 10.1,
any Lender may assign and pledge all or any portion of its Loans, the other
Obligations owed to such Lender, and its Notes to any Federal Reserve Bank as
collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System and any operating circular issued by such Federal Reserve
Bank; provided that (i) no Lender shall, as between any Borrower and such
Lender, be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any such
assignment and pledge and (ii) in no event shall such Federal Reserve Bank be
considered to be a "Lender" or be entitled to require the assigning Lender to
take or omit to take any action hereunder.

     E. INFORMATION. Each Lender may furnish any information concerning Company
and its Subsidiaries in the possession of that Lender from time to time to
assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants),
subject to subsection 10.19.

10.2 EXPENSES.

     Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated,
each Borrower agrees to pay promptly (i) all the actual and reasonable costs and
expenses of preparation of the Loan Documents and any consents, amendments,
waivers or other modifications thereto; (ii) all the actual and reasonable costs
of furnishing all opinions by counsel for any Borrower (including without
limitation any opinions requested by Lenders as to any legal matters arising

agreements and conditions on its part to be performed or complied with under
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents including, without limitation, with
respect to confirming compliance with environmental and insurance requirements;
(iii) the actual and reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel to
Administrative Agent (including actual and reasonable allocated costs of

administration of the Loan Documents and any consents, amendments, waivers or
other modifications thereto and any other documents or matters requested by any
Borrower; (iv) all the actual and reasonable costs and expenses of creating and
perfecting Liens in favor of Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders pursuant
to the Loan Documents, including without limitation costs of conducting record
searches, examining Collateral, costs of title insurance premiums, real estate
survey costs, and fees and taxes in connection with the filing of financing
statements, costs of preparing and recording Loan Documents, fees and expenses
of counsel for providing such opinions as Administrative Agent or Requisite
Lenders may reasonably request,


                                      155
<PAGE>

and fees and expenses of legal counsel to Administrative Agent; (v) all the
actual costs and reasonable expenses of obtaining and reviewing any appraisals
provided for under this Agreement and any environmental audits or reports
provided for under this Agreement; (vi) all other actual and reasonable costs
and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the syndication
of the Commitments and the negotiation, preparation and execution of the Loan
Documents and any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications thereto
and the transactions contemplated thereby; (vii) after the occurrence of an
Event of Default, all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees
(including actual and reasonable allocated costs of internal counsel) and costs
of settlement, incurred by Administrative Agent and Lenders in enforcing any
Obligations of or in collecting any payments due from any Loan Party hereunder
or under the other Loan Documents by reason of such Event of Default or in
connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements
provided under this Agreement in the nature of a "work-out" or pursuant to any
insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings, and (viii) all fees, expenses,
disbursements and other costs or liabilities of any financial advisors,
accountants, auditors or appraisers retained by Administrative Agent or its
counsel in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the
transactions contemplated thereby.

10.3 INDEMNITY.

     In addition to the payment of expenses pursuant to subsection 10.2, whether
or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, each Borrower
agrees to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless Administrative Agent and
Lenders, and the officers, directors, employees, agents and affiliates of
Administrative Agent and Lenders (collectively called the "INDEMNITEES") from
and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements
of any kind or nature whatsoever (including without limitation the reasonable
fees and disbursements of counsel for such Indemnitees in connection with any
investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened by
any Person, whether or not any such Indemnitee shall be designated as a party or
a potential party thereto), whether direct, indirect or consequential and
whether based on any federal, state or foreign laws, statutes, rules or
regulations (including without limitation securities and commercial laws,
statutes, rules or regulations and Environmental Laws), on common law or
equitable cause or on contract or otherwise, that may be imposed on, incurred
by, or asserted against any such Indemnitee, in any manner relating to or
arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby (including without limitation Lenders' agreement
to make the Loans hereunder or the use or intended use of the proceeds of any of
the Loans or the issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder or the use or intended
use of any of the Letters of Credit) or the statements contained in the
commitment letter delivered by any Lender to any Borrower with respect thereto
(collectively called the "INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES"); provided that Borrowers
shall not have any obligation to any Indemnitee hereunder with respect to any
Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise solely
from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of that Indemnitee as determined
by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent that the
undertaking to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in the
preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or
public policy, each Borrower


                                      156
<PAGE>

shall contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy
under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified
Liabilities incurred by the Indemnitees or any of them.

     Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Borrower further
agrees to fully and promptly pay, perform, discharge, defend (subject to
Indemnitee's selection of counsel), indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee
from and against any Indemnified Environmental Liabilities; provided that
Borrowers shall not have any obligation to any Indemnitee hereunder with respect
to any Indemnified Environmental Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified
Environmental Liabilities arise solely from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of that Indemnitee as determined by a final judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction. To the extent that the undertaking to defend, indemnify,
pay and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable
because it is violative of any law or public policy, each Borrower shall
contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under
applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Environmental
Liabilities incurred by the Indemnitees or any of them. As used herein,
"INDEMNIFIED ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITIES" means any liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages (including, without limitation, natural resource damages),
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims (including Environmental Claims),
costs (including, without limitation, the costs of any investigation, study,
sampling, testing, abatement, cleanup, removal, remediation, or other response
action necessary to remove, remediate, clean up, or abate any Hazardous
Materials or any activity relating to Hazardous Materials that is in violation
of any Environmental Laws or that presents a material risk of giving rise to an
Environmental Claim), expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature
whatsoever, whether direct, indirect or consequential and whether based on any
federal, state or foreign laws, statutes, rules or regulations (including
without limitation securities and commercial laws, statutes, rules or
regulations and Environmental Laws), on common law or equitable cause or on
contract or otherwise, that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against
any such Indemnitee, in any manner relating to or arising out of: (i) any
Release, threatened Release or disposal of any Hazardous Materials at any of the
Facilities; (ii) the Release, threatened Release, or disposal at any location of
any Hazardous Materials generated at or originating from any of the Facilities
by or at the direction of Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (iii) any
Environmental Claim in connection with any of the Facilities; or (iv) the
operation of or violation of any Environmental Law at any of the Facilities.

10.4 SET-OFF; SECURITY INTEREST IN DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS.

     In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and
not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence of any Event of
Default and consultation with Administrative Agent each Lender is hereby
authorized by each Borrower at any time or from time to time, without notice to
any Borrower or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly
waived, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general
or special, including, but not limited to, Indebtedness evidenced by
certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, but not including trust
accounts) and any other


                                      157
<PAGE>

Indebtedness at any time held or owing by that Lender or any of its Affiliates
to or for the credit or the account of such Borrower against and on account of
the obligations and liabilities of such Borrower under this Agreement, the
Letters of Credit and participations therein and the other Loan Documents,
including, but not limited to, all claims of any nature or description arising
out of or connected with this Agreement, the Letters of Credit and
participations therein or any other Loan Document, irrespective of whether or
not (i) that Lender shall have made any demand hereunder or (ii) the principal
of or the interest on the Loans or any amounts in respect of the Letters of
Credit or any other amounts due hereunder shall have become due and payable
pursuant to Section 8 and although said obligations and liabilities, or any of
them, may be contingent or unmatured. Each Borrower hereby further grants to
Administrative Agent and each Lender for the benefit of all Lenders a security
interest in all deposits and accounts maintained with Administrative Agent or
such Lender as security for the Obligations.

10.5 RATABLE SHARING

     Lenders hereby agree among themselves that if any of them shall, whether by
voluntary payment, by realization upon security, through the exercise of any
right of set-off or banker's lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the
enforcement of any right under the Loan Documents or otherwise, or as adequate
protection of a deposit treated as cash collateral under the Bankruptcy Code,
receive payment or reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of
principal, interest, amounts payable in respect of Letters of Credit, fees and
other amounts then due and owing to that Lender from a Borrower hereunder or
under the other Loan Documents (collectively, the "AGGREGATE AMOUNTS DUE" to
such Lender) which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender
in respect of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Lender, then the Lender
receiving such proportionately greater payment shall (i) notify Administrative
Agent and each other Lender of the receipt of such payment and (ii) apply a
portion of such payment to purchase participations (which it shall be deemed to
have purchased from each seller of a participation simultaneously upon the
receipt by such seller of its portion of such payment) in the Aggregate Amounts
Due to the other Lenders so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due
shall be shared by all Lenders in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due to
them; provided that if all or part of such proportionately greater payment
received by such purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Lender upon
the bankruptcy or reorganization of such Borrower or otherwise, those purchases
shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be
returned to such purchasing Lender ratably to the extent of such recovery, but
without interest. Each Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangement
and agrees that any holder of a participation so purchased may exercise any and
all rights of banker's lien, set-off or counterclaim with respect to any and all
monies owing by such Borrower to that holder with respect thereto as fully as if
that holder were owed the amount of the participation held by that holder.

10.6 AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS.

     No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement or of the Notes, and no consent to any departure by any Borrower

10.7 INDEPENDENCE OF COVENANTS.

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

communication herein required or permitted to be given shall be in writing and

     No failure or delay on the part of Administrative Agent or any Lender in
the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan
Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a
waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further

remedies existing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are
cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available.

<PAGE>

10.11 MARSHALLING; PAYMENTS SET ASIDE.

     None of Administrative Agent or any Lender shall be under any obligation to
marshal any assets in favor of any Borrower or any other party or against or in
payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that any Borrower makes
a payment or payments to Administrative Agent or Lenders (or to Agent for the
benefit of Lenders), or Administrative Agent or Lenders enforce any security
interests or exercise their rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or
the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently
invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or
required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any
bankruptcy law, any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable
cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof
originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor
or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as
if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had
not occurred.

10.12 SEVERABILITY.

     In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement or the Notes

legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of
such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby.

10.13 OBLIGATIONS SEVERAL; INDEPENDENT NATURE OF LENDERS' RIGHTS.

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

10.14 HEADINGS.

convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement
for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect.

CURRENCY") into another currency (the "OTHER CURRENCY"), the parties hereto
agree, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that the rate of exchange used
shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures

     (b) The obligations of each Borrower in respect of any sum due from it to
Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment

Agent or Lender in the Original Currency, Lender shall remit such excess to such
Borrower.

                                     ANNEX A

2.7  INCREASED COSTS; TAXES; CAPITAL ADEQUACY.

     A. COMPENSATION FOR INCREASED COSTS AND TAXES. Subject to the provisions of
subsection 2.7B, in the event that any Lender shall determine (which
determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding
upon all parties hereto) that any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation
or order, or any change therein or in the interpretation, administration or
application thereof (including the introduction of any new law, treaty or
governmental rule, regulation or order), or any determination of a court or
governmental authority, in each case that becomes effective after the date
hereof, or compliance by such Lender with any guideline, request or directive
issued or made after the date hereof by any central bank or other governmental
or quasi-governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law):

          (i) subjects such Lender (or its applicable lending office) to any
     additional Tax (other than any Tax on the overall net income of such
     Lender) with respect to this Agreement or any of its obligations hereunder
     or any payments to such Lender (or its applicable lending office) of
     principal, interest, commitment fees or any other amount payable hereunder;

          (ii) imposes, modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including
     without limitation any marginal, emergency, supplemental, special or other
     reserve), special deposit, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance or similar
     requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or
     for the account of, or advances or loans by, or other credit extended by,
     or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender (other than
     any such reserve or other requirements with respect to Offshore Rate Loans
     that are reflected in the definition of Adjusted Offshore Rate); or

          (iii) imposes any other condition (other than with respect to a Tax
     matter) on or affecting such Lender (or its applicable lending office) or
     its obligations hereunder or the interbank Eurodollar market for the
     Applicable Currency;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of
agreeing to make, making or maintaining Loans hereunder or to reduce any amount
received or receivable by such Lender (or its applicable lending office) with
respect thereto in an amount deemed by such Lender (in its sole discretion) to
be material; then, in any such case, the applicable Borrower shall promptly pay
to such Lender, upon receipt of the statement referred to in the next sentence,
such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a
different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its
sole discretion shall determine) as may be necessary to compensate such Lender
for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable
hereunder. Such Lender shall deliver to the applicable Borrower (with a copy to
Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail
the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Lender under this
subsection 2.7A, which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all
parties hereto absent manifest error.


                                   Annex A-1
<PAGE>

     B. WITHHOLDING OF TAXES.

          (i) Payments to Be Free and Clear. All sums payable by Borrowers under
     this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be paid free and clear
     of, and, except to the extent required by law, without any deduction or
     withholding on account of, any Tax (other than a Tax on the overall net
     income of any Lender) imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by
     or within the United States of America, the UK, France or Japan or any
     political subdivision in or of the United States of America, the UK, France
     or Japan or any other jurisdiction from or to which a payment is made by or
     on behalf of any Borrower or by any federation or organization of which the
     United States of America, the UK, France or Japan or any such jurisdiction
     is a member at the time of payment.

          (ii) Grossing-up of Payments. If any Borrower or any other Person
     (including any Funding Lender with respect to any payments made to an
     Indemnifying Lender under subsection 2.9) is required by law to make any
     deduction or withholding on account of any such Tax from any sum paid or
     payable by any Borrower to Administrative Agent or any Lender under any of
     the Loan Documents or by any Funding Lender with respect to any payments
     made to an Indemnifying Lender under subsection 2.9:

               (a) such Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent of any such
          requirement or any change in any such requirement as soon as such
          Borrower becomes aware of it;

               (b) such Borrower shall pay any such Tax before the date on which
          penalties attach thereto, such payment to be made (if the liability to
          pay is imposed on such Borrower) for its own account or (if that
          liability is imposed on Administrative Agent or any such Lender, as
          the case may be) on behalf of and in the name of Administrative Agent
          or any such Lender;

               (c) the sum payable by such Borrower or by such Funding Lender in
          respect of which the relevant deduction, withholding or payment is
          required shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that,
          after the making of that deduction, withholding or payment,
          Administrative Agent, such Lender or Indemnifying Lender, as the case
          may be, receives on the due date a net sum equal to what it would have
          received had no such deduction, withholding or payment been required
          or made; and

               (d) within 30 days after paying any sum from which it is required
          by law to make any deduction or withholding, and within 30 days after
          the due date of payment of any Tax which it is required by clause (b)
          above to pay, such Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent
          evidence reasonably satisfactory to the other affected parties of such
          deduction, withholding or payment and of its making payment thereof to
          the relevant taxing or other authority;


                                   Annex A-2
<PAGE>

          provided that no such additional amount of United States Tax shall be
          required to be paid to any Lender under clause (c) above except to the
          extent that any change after the date hereof (in the case of each
          Lender listed on the signature pages hereof) or after the date of the
          Assignment Agreement pursuant to which such Lender became a Lender (in
          the case of each other Lender) in any such requirement for a
          deduction, withholding or payment as is mentioned therein shall result
          in an increase in the rate of such deduction, withholding or payment
          from that in effect at the date of this Agreement or at the date of
          such Assignment Agreement, as the case may be, in respect of payments
          to such Lender; provided further that any such additional amount of
          UK, French, or Japanese Tax, as the case may be, shall be required to
          be paid by Borrower to Administrative Agent, any applicable
          Indemnifying Lender or to any other Lender under clause (c) above
          whether or not any such payment shall be required as a result of any
          change in applicable laws and regulations after the date hereof (i.e.,
          Borrower shall be required to pay such additional amount of UK,
          French, or Japanese Tax, as the case may be, even if the obligation to
          make such payment shall have arisen under applicable laws and
          regulations as in effect on the date hereof); and provided further
          that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
          Agreement or in any other Loan Document, to the extent that
          Administrative Agent is required by any applicable law or regulation,
          whether or not in effect on the date hereof, to make any deduction or
          withholding on account of any such UK, French, or Japanese Tax from
          any sum paid or payable by Administrative Agent to any Indemnifying
          Lender pursuant to subsection 2.9, (a) Borrower shall pay any such Tax
          before the date on which penalties attach thereto, such payment to be
          made (if the liability to pay is imposed on such Borrower) for its own
          account or (if that liability is imposed on Administrative Agent or
          such Indemnifying Lender, as the case may be) on behalf of and in the
          name of Administrative Agent or such Indemnifying Lender; and (b) the
          sum payable by such Borrower or by Administrative Agent in respect of
          which the relevant deduction, withholding or payment is required shall
          be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making
          of that deduction, withholding or payment, Administrative Agent or
          Indemnifying Lender, as the case may be, receives on the due date a
          net sum equal to what it would have received had no such deduction,
          withholding or payment been required or made. Borrower shall indemnify
          Administrative Agent and each applicable Indemnifying Lender for any
          Tax (other than a Tax on the overall net income of any Lender)
          imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by or under any
          applicable Governmental Authority with respect to the payments to be
          made pursuant to subsection 2.9.

          (iii) Evidence of Exemption from Withholding Taxes.

               (a) (1) Each Lender that is organized under the laws of any
          jurisdiction other than the United States or any state or other
          political subdivision thereof (for purposes of this subsection
          2.7B(iii), a "NON-US LENDER") shall deliver to Administrative Agent
          for transmission to Company, on or prior to the Effective Date (in the
          case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof) or on or
          prior to the date of the Assignment Agreement pursuant to which it
          becomes


                                   Annex A-3
<PAGE>

          a Lender (in the case of each other Lender), and at such other times
          as may be necessary in the determination of Company or Administrative
          Agent (each in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), (X) two
          original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form 1001 or 4224 (or any
          successor forms), properly completed and duly executed by such Non-US
          Lender, together with any other certificate or statement of exemption
          required under the Internal Revenue Code or the regulations issued
          thereunder to establish that such Non-US Lender is not subject to
          deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with
          respect to any payments to such Non-US Lender of principal, interest,
          fees or other amounts payable under any of the Loan Documents or (Y)
          if such Non-US Lender is not a "bank" or other Person described in
          Section 881(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and cannot deliver
          either Internal Revenue Service Form 1001 or 4224 pursuant to clause
          (X) above, a Certificate re Non-Bank Status together with two original
          copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 (or any successor form),
          properly completed and duly executed by such Non-US Lender, together
          with any other certificate or statement of exemption required under
          the Internal Revenue Code or the regulations issued thereunder to
          establish that such Non-US Lender is not subject to deduction or
          withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to any
          payments to such Non-US Lender of interest payable under any of the
          Loan Documents.

               (2) Each UK Lender (other than a UK Qualifying Lender; provided
          that this clause 2.7B(iii)(a)(3) shall apply to a UK Qualifying Lender
          who loses such status, other than through a change in any applicable
          law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change
          in the interpretation, administration or application thereof after the
          Relevant Date (as defined below) as set out in clause 2.7B(iii)(c),
          from the date of such loss) shall deliver to the appropriate Person
          such application forms, certificates, documents or other evidence as
          may be required from time to time, properly completed and duly
          executed by such UK Lender, to enable Goss UK to be able to pay
          interest on the UK Loans from it without withholding or deduction for
          or on account of any UK income tax. Each UK Lender severally warrants
          to Goss UK that on the Relevant Date (as defined in clause
          2.7B(iii)(c)) (i) it is a UK Qualifying Lender or (ii) it is a UK
          Double Tax Treaty Lender that has or will timely fulfill its
          obligations under subsection 2.7B(iii).

               (3) Each French Lender that is organized under the laws of any
          jurisdiction other than France or any political subdivision thereof
          (for purposes of this subsection 2.7B(iii), a "NON-FRENCH LENDER")
          agrees to deliver to Goss France and Administrative Agent upon request
          such certificates, documents or other evidence as may be required from
          time to time, properly completed and duly executed by such Non-French
          Lender, to establish the basis for any applicable exemption from or
          reduction of Taxes with respect to any payments to such Non-


                                   Annex A-4
<PAGE>

          French Lender of principal, interest, fees, commissions or any other
          amount payable under this Agreement or the French Revolving Loans.

               (4) Each Japanese Lender that is organized under the laws of any
          jurisdiction other than Japan or any political subdivision thereof

          agrees to deliver to Goss Japan and Administrative Agent upon request
          such certificates, documents or other evidence as may be required from
          time to time, properly completed and duly executed by such
          Non-Japanese Lender, to establish the basis for any applicable
          exemption from or reduction of Taxes with respect to any payments to
          such Non-Japanese Lender of principal, interest, fees, commissions or
          any other amount payable under this Agreement or the Japanese
          Revolving Loans.

               (b) Each Lender required to deliver any forms, certificates or

          withholding matters or UK, French or Japanese income tax withholding
          matters pursuant to subsection 2.7B(iii)(a) hereby agrees, from time
          to time after the initial delivery by such Lender of such forms,
          certificates or other evidence, whenever a lapse in time or change in
          circumstances renders such forms, certificates or other evidence
          obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, that such Lender shall
          (1)(W) in the case of any Non-US Lender, promptly deliver to
          Administrative Agent for transmission to Company two new original
          copies of Internal Revenue Service Form 1001 or 4224, or a Certificate

          deliver to Administrative Agent for transmission to Goss Japan such
          certificates, documents or other evidence as may be required from time
          to time under the fourth paragraph of subsection 2.7B(iii)(a), or (Z)

          and duly executed by such Lender, together with any other certificate
          or statement of exemption required in order to confirm or establish
          that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United
          States, French, Japanese or UK (as applicable) Tax with respect to
          payments to such Lender under the Loan Documents or (2) notify
          Administrative Agent and Borrower of its inability to deliver any such
          forms, certificates or other evidence.

               (c) The Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional
          amount to or in respect of any payment to any Non-US Lender,
          Non-French Lender, Non-Japanese Lender or UK Lender that is not a UK
          Indemnifying Lender in respect of


                                   Annex A-5
<PAGE>

          that payment, as the case may be, under clause (c) of subsection
          2.7B(ii) if such Lender shall both (i) have failed to satisfy the
          requirements of clause (a) or (b) (provided that for the purpose of
          this subsection 2.7B(iii)(c) its obligations under such clause (b)
          shall not be considered to be duly fulfilled by its notification to
          Administrative Agent and Borrower of its inability to deliver any
          form, certificate or other evidence) of this subsection 2.7B(iii) and
          (ii) is not a UK Qualifying Lender; provided further that if such
          Lender shall have satisfied the requirements of subsection
          2.7B(iii)(a) (in the case of any payment, or part thereof, connected
          with any Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or Indemnity
          Participation, sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to an Assignment
          Agreement) after the date of such Assignment Agreement or (in any
          other case) after the Effective Date (hereinafter, the "RELEVANT
          DATE"), or is a UK Qualifying Lender on the Relevant Date, as the case
          may be, nothing in this subsection 2.7B(iii)(c) shall relieve the
          Borrower of its obligation to pay any additional amounts pursuant to
          clause (c) of subsection 2.7B(ii) in the event that, as a result of
          any change in any applicable law, treaty or governmental rule,
          regulation or order, or any change in the interpretation,
          administration or application thereof, such Lender either is no longer
          a UK Qualifying Lender or is no longer properly entitled to deliver
          forms, certificates or other evidence at a subsequent date
          establishing the fact that such Lender is exempt from withholding tax
          or is subject to withholding tax at a rate higher than on the Relevant
          Date, as described in subsection 2.7B(iii)(a), as the case may be.

               (d) The Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional
          amount under clause (c) of subsection 2.7B(ii) to any French
          Indemnifying Lender if Administrative Agent is not either a French
          corporation or a bank which has and acts through a permanent
          establishment in France and holds a valid Certificate of Exemption
          from withholding tax for foreign corporations or non-residents,
          provided, however, that nothing in this subsection 2.7(iii) shall
          relieve the applicable Borrower of its obligation to pay any
          additional amounts pursuant to clause (c) of subsection 2.7B(ii) to an
          Indemnifying Lender which becomes a French Lender, Japanese Lender or
          a UK Lender, as the case may be, upon the occurrence of a Triggering
          Event under subsection 2.9A, notwithstanding the fact that such
          Indemnifying Lender is not properly entitled to deliver forms,
          certificates or other evidence establishing that such Indemnifying
          Lender is exempt from Tax (other than Tax on its overall net income)
          with respect to payments received from such Borrower, whether or not
          as a result of any change in applicable law, treaty or governmental
          rule, regulation or order, or any change in the interpretation,
          administration or application thereof after the Effective Date.

               (e) The Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional
          amount under clause (c) of subsection 2.7B(ii) to any Japanese
          Indemnifying Lender if Administrative Agent is not either a Japanese
          corporation or a bank which has and acts through a permanent
          establishment in Japan and holds a valid Certificate of


                                   Annex A-6
<PAGE>

          Exemption from withholding tax for foreign corporations or
          non-residents, provided, however, that nothing in this subsection
          2.7(iii) shall relieve the applicable Borrower of its obligation to
          pay any additional amounts pursuant to clause (c) of subsection
          2.7B(ii) to an Indemnifying Lender which becomes a Japanese Lender, a
          French Lender or a UK Lender, as the case may be, upon the occurrence
          of a Triggering Event under subsection 2.9A, notwithstanding the fact
          that such Indemnifying Lender is not properly entitled to deliver
          forms, certificates or other evidence establishing that such
          Indemnifying Lender is exempt from Tax (other than Tax on its overall
          net income) with respect to payments received from such Borrower,
          whether or not as a result of any change in applicable law, treaty or
          governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change in the
          interpretation, administration or application thereof after the
          Effective Date.

               (f) If:

                    (i) Goss UK makes a payment under paragraph (c) of
               subsection 2.7B(ii) (a "TAX PAYMENT") in respect of a payment to
               a UK Double Tax Treaty Lender (that had duly fulfilled its
               obligations under subsection 2.7B(iii)), such payment having been
               made prior to Goss UK receiving a notice from the Inland Revenue
               permitting it to pay gross, and

                    (ii) that UK Double Tax Treaty Lender determines that it has
               obtained a refund of Tax or obtained and used a credit against
               Tax on its Overall Net Income (a "TAX CREDIT") which that UK
               Lender is attributable to that Tax Payment

               then, if in its absolute discretion it can do so without any
               adverse consequences, that UK Double Tax Treaty Lender shall
               reimburse Goss UK such amount as that UK Double Tax Treaty Lender
               shall reasonably determine to be such proportion of that Tax
               Credit as will leave that UK Double Tax Treaty Lender (after that
               reimbursement) in no better or worse position in respect of its
               world wide Tax liabilities than it would have been in if no Tax
               Payment had been required. No UK Double Tax Treaty Lender shall
               be obliged to disclose any information regarding its Tax affairs
               and computations.

     C. CAPITAL ADEQUACY ADJUSTMENT. If any Lender shall have determined that
the adoption, effectiveness, phase-in or applicability after the date hereof of
any law, rule or regulation (or any provision thereof) regarding capital
adequacy, or any change therein or in the interpretation or administration
thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged
with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender
(or its applicable lending office) with any guideline, request or directive
regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such
governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the
effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any
corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of, or


                                   Annex A-7
<PAGE>

with reference to, such Lender's Loans, Commitments or Letters of Credit or any
participations therein or any other obligations hereunder with respect to the
Loans or the Letters of Credit, in the case of any Lender, to a level below that
which such Lender or such controlling corporation could have achieved but for
such adoption, effectiveness, phase-in, applicability, change or compliance
(taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or such controlling
corporation with regard to capital adequacy and in an amount deemed by such
Lender (in its sole discretion) to be material), then from time to time, within
five Business Days after receipt by the Borrower from such Lender of the
statement referred to in the next sentence, Borrowers shall pay to such Lender
such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such
controlling corporation on an after-tax basis for such reduction. Such Lender
shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) a written
statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis of the calculation of
such additional amounts, which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon
all parties hereto absent manifest error. Notwithstanding any provision of this
subsection 2.7 to the contrary, Borrowers shall pay, on terms and conditions
consistent with this subsection 2.7, any additional amount or amounts as will
compensate any Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender on an after-tax
basis for any reduction in the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or
such controlling entity because of any overlap of the Revolving Loan
Commitments, whether or not as a result of any change in applicable law, treaty
or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change in the interpretation,
administration or application thereof.

                                     ANNEX B

2.8  OBLIGATION OF LENDERS AND ISSUING LENDERS TO MITIGATE; REPLACEMENT OF
     LENDERS.

     A. Each Lender and Issuing Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable
after the officer of such Lender or Issuing Lender responsible for administering
the Loans or Letters of Credit of such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may
be, becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition
that would cause such Lender to become an Affected Lender or that would entitle
such Lender or Issuing Lender to receive payments under subsection 2.7 or
subsection 3.6, it will, to the extent not inconsistent with the internal
policies of such Lender or Issuing Lender and any applicable legal or regulatory
restrictions, use reasonable efforts (i) to make, issue, fund or maintain the
Commitments of such Lender or the affected Loans or Letters of Credit of such
Lender or Issuing Lender through another lending or letter of credit office of
such Lender or Issuing Lender, or (ii) take such other measures as such Lender
or Issuing Lender may deem reasonable, if as a result thereof the circumstances
which would cause such Lender to be an Affected Lender would cease to exist or
the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such
Lender or Issuing Lender pursuant to subsection 2.7 or subsection 3.6 would be
materially reduced and if, as determined by such Lender or Issuing Lender in its
sole discretion, the making, issuing, funding or maintaining of such Commitments
or Loans or Letters of Credit through such other lending or letter of credit
office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not
otherwise materially adversely affect such Commitments or Loans or Letters of
Credit or the interests of such Lender or Issuing Lender; provided that such
Lender or Issuing Lender will not be obligated to utilize such other lending or
letter of credit office pursuant to this subsection 2.8 unless the applicable
Borrower agrees to pay all incremental expenses incurred by such Lender or
Issuing Lender as a result of utilizing such other lending or letter of credit
office as described in clause (i) above or if the use of such other office is
inconsistent with the internal policies of such Lender or any applicable legal
or regulatory restrictions. A certificate as to the amount of any such expenses
payable by a Borrower pursuant to this subsection 2.8 (setting forth in
reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount) submitted by such Lender
or Issuing Lender to such Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) shall
be conclusive absent manifest error.

     B. If any Borrower receives a notice pursuant to subsection 2.6C, Borrowers
shall have the right, if no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default then
exists, to replace such Lender (a "REPLACED LENDER") with one or more Eligible
Assignees (collectively, the "REPLACEMENT LENDER") acceptable to Administrative
Agent; provided that (i) at the time of any replacement pursuant to this
subsection 2.8B, the Replacement Lender shall enter into one or more Assignment
Agreements pursuant to subsection 10.1B (and with all fees payable pursuant to
such subsection 10.1B to be paid by the Replacement Lender) pursuant to which
the Replacement Lender shall acquire all of the outstanding Loans and
Commitments of, and in each case participations in Letters of Credit and Swing
Line Loans by, the Replaced Lender and, in connection therewith, shall pay to
(x) the Replaced Lender in respect thereof an amount equal to the sum of (A) an
amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding


                                   Annex B-1
<PAGE>

Loans of the Replaced Lender, (B) an amount equal to all unpaid drawings with
respect to Letters of Credit that have been funded by (and not reimbursed to)
such Replaced Lender, together with all then unpaid interest with respect
thereto at such time and (C) an amount equal to all accrued, but theretofore
unpaid, fees owing to the Replaced Lender with respect thereto, (y) the
appropriate Issuing Lender an amount equal to such Replaced Lender's Pro Rata
Share of any unpaid drawings with respect to Letters of Credit (which at such
time remains an unpaid drawing) issued by it to the extent such amount was not
theretofore funded by such Replaced Lender, and (z) Swing Line Lender an amount
equal to such Replaced Lender's Pro Rata Share of any Refunded Swing Line Loans
to the extent such amount was not theretofore funded by such Replaced Lender,
and (ii) all obligations (including without limitation all such amounts, if any,
owing under subsection 2.6D) of Company owing to the Replaced Lender (other than
those specifically described in clause (i) above in respect of which the
assignment purchase price has been, or is concurrently being, paid), shall be
paid in full to such Replaced Lender concurrently with such replacement. Upon
the execution of the respective Assignment Agreements, recordation of such
assignment in the Register by Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection 2.1D,
the payment of amounts referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above and delivery to
the Replacement Lender of the appropriate Note or Notes executed by Borrowers,
the Replacement Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and the Replaced Lender
shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder except with respect to
indemnification provisions under this Agreement which by the terms of this
Agreement survive the termination of this Agreement, which indemnification
provisions shall survive as to such Replaced Lender. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained above, no Issuing Lender may be replaced hereunder at any
time while it has Letters of Credit outstanding hereunder unless arrangements
satisfactory to such Issuing Lender (including the furnishing of a Standby
Letter of Credit in form and substance, and issued by an issuer, satisfactory to
such Issuing Lender or the furnishing of cash collateral in amounts and pursuant
to arrangements satisfactory to such Issuing Lender) have been made with respect
to such outstanding Letters of Credit.

                                     ANNEX C

2.9  INDEMNIFYING LENDERS.

     A. PURCHASE OF PARTICIPATIONS BY INDEMNIFYING LENDERS. Upon the execution
of this Agreement or an Assignment Agreement, as the case may be, (1) each UK
Indemnifying Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby agrees to, have irrevocably
purchased an Indemnity Participation (as defined below) from Administrative
Agent in the UK Revolving Loan Commitment of Administrative Agent, including
without limitation the UK Revolving Loans and the participations purchased by
Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection 3.1C in the Letters of Credit issued
by Administrative Agent for the benefit of Goss UK and any drawings thereunder,
(2) each French Indemnifying Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby agrees to,
have irrevocably purchased an Indemnity Participation (as defined below) from
Administrative Agent in the French Revolving Loan Commitment of Administrative
Agent, including without limitation the French Revolving Loans and the
participations purchased by Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection 3.1C in
the Letters of Credit issued by Administrative Agent for the benefit of Goss
France and any drawings thereunder, and (3) each Japanese Indemnifying Lender
shall be deemed to, and hereby agrees to, have irrevocably purchased a
participation (the "INDEMNITY PARTICIPATION") from Administrative Agent in the
Japanese Revolving Loan Commitment of Administrative Agent, including without
limitation the Japanese Revolving Loans and the participations purchased by
Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection 3.1C in the Letters of Credit issued
by the Administrative Agent and any drawings thereunder, in each case in a
proportionate amount based on such Indemnifying Lender's Indemnity Amount. Upon
the occurrence of a Triggering Event, each Indemnifying Lender, upon one
Business Day's notice from Administrative Agent, shall deliver to Administrative
Agent by wire transfer in immediately available funds its proportionate share
based on its Indemnity Amount of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of
Administrative Agent's UK Revolving Loans, French Revolving Loans or Japanese
Revolving Loans, as the case may be, and any accrued and unpaid interest thereon
and the aggregate unreimbursed amount of any payments made by Administrative
Agent pursuant to subsection 3.3C to the applicable Issuing Lender with respect
to any unreimbursed drawings on Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender.
Each Indemnifying Lender's obligations under this subsection 2.9 shall be
absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance,
including, without limitation, (a) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment,
defense or other right which Administrative Agent or any Lender may have against
Administrative Agent, Loan Party or other Person for any reason whatsoever; (b)
the occurrence or continuance of an Event of Default or a Potential Event of
Default; (c) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any
Loan Party; (d) any breach of this Agreement by any Loan Party, Administrative
Agent or any Lender; or (e) any other circumstance, happening, or event
whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided that the
obligations of each Indemnifying Lender are subject to the condition that at the
time such UK Revolving Loan, French Revolving Loan or Japanese Revolving Loan,
as the case may be, was made or such Letter of Credit was issued the duly
authorized officer of Administrative Agent responsible for the administration of
the credit relationship with Goss UK,


                                   Annex C-1
<PAGE>

Goss France or Goss Japan, as the case may be, believed in good faith that
either (x) no Event of Default had occurred and was continuing or (y) any Event
of Default that had occurred and was continuing had been waived by Requisite
Lenders at the time such UK Revolving Loan, French Revolving Loan or Japanese
Revolving Loan, as the case may be, was made or such Letter of Credit was
issued.

     B. PAYMENT OF INDEMNITY FEES. Administrative Agent shall promptly pay by
wire transfer of immediately available funds to each applicable Indemnifying
Lender, as an indemnity fee for the Indemnity Participation provided to
Administrative Agent by such Indemnifying Lender in this subsection 2.9, the
following amounts, in each case in proportion to such Indemnifying Lender's
Indemnity Amount: (i) with respect to the UK Revolving Loans, French Revolving
Loans or Japanese Revolving Loans, as the case may be, an amount equal to (x)
the excess of the interest received by Administrative Agent pursuant to
subsection 2.2C from Goss UK, from Goss France or Goss Japan, as the case may
be, over the Adjusted Offshore Rate on such UK Revolving Loans, French Revolving
Loans or Japanese Revolving Loans less (y) 0.125% per annum to be retained by
Administrative Agent as an Indemnity Participation fee; (ii) with respect to
Letters of Credit, (x) letter of credit fees received by Administrative Agent
pursuant to subsections 3.2(i)(b) and 3.2(ii)(b) from the applicable Issuing
Lender less (y) 0.125% per annum to be retained by Administrative Agent as an
Indemnity Participation fee; and (iii) commitment fees received by
Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection 2.3A from Administrative Agent;
provided that if any such indemnity fee is less than $10,000, Administrative
Agent shall not be required to so promptly pay such indemnity fee to an
Indemnifying Lender until the aggregate unpaid amount of indemnity fees
accumulates to an amount exceeding $10,000. The excess, if any, of the interest
payable to Administrative Agent on the UK Revolving Loans, the French Revolving
Loans or Japanese Revolving Loans, as the case may be, over the interest
distributable to an Indemnifying Lender under this subsection 2.9B in respect
thereof, and the excess, if any, of the letter of credit and commitment fees
payable to Administrative Agent over and in addition to the letter of credit and
commitment fees distributable to such Indemnifying Lender under this subsection
2.9B, shall be retained by Administrative Agent.

     C. OTHER PAYMENTS. Provided that an Indemnifying Lender shall have made any
payments to Administrative Agent required by this subsection 2.9, including the
payments required to be made upon the occurrence of a Triggering Event pursuant
to subsection 2.9A, Administrative Agent shall promptly pay by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to such Indemnifying Lender any principal or other
payments thereafter recovered by Administrative Agent from Goss UK, Goss France
or Goss Japan, as the case may be, to the extent allocable to such Indemnifying
Lender's Indemnity Participation. If Administrative Agent shall pay any amount
to an Indemnifying Lender pursuant to this subsection 2.9 in the belief or
expectation that a related payment has been or will be received or collected and
such related payment is not received or collected by Administrative Agent, then
such Indemnifying Lender will promptly on demand by Administrative Agent return
such amount to Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon at such rate
as Administrative Agent shall determine to be customary between banks for
correction of errors. If Administrative Agent determines at any time that any
amount


                                   Annex C-2
<PAGE>

received or collected by Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement is to
be returned to Goss UK, Goss France or Goss Japan, as the case may be, under
this Agreement or paid to any other Person or entity pursuant to any insolvency
law, any sharing clause in this Agreement, or otherwise, then, notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, Administrative Agent shall not be
required to distribute any portion thereof to any Indemnifying Lender, and each
Indemnifying Lender will promptly on demand by Administrative Agent repay any
portion that Administrative Agent shall have distributed to such Indemnifying
Lender, together with interest thereon at such rate, if any, as Administrative
Agent shall pay to Goss UK, Goss France or Goss Japan, as the case may be, or
such other Person or entity with respect thereto. If any amounts returned by
Administrative Agent to Goss UK, Goss France or Goss Japan, as the case may be,
pursuant to this subsection 2.9 are later recouped by Administrative Agent,
Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to each Indemnifying Lender a
proportionate amount based on such Indemnifying Lender's Indemnity Amount.

     D. INDEMNITY FOR COSTS AND EXPENSES. If Administrative Agent incurs any
costs or expenses (including, without limitation, in indemnifying Administrative
Agent pursuant to subsection 9.4) in connection with any effort to enforce or
protect Administrative Agent's or any Indemnifying Lender's rights or interests
with respect to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, then, other than in
the case of Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct, each
Indemnifying Lender will reimburse Administrative Agent on demand for each such
Indemnifying Lender's proportionate share based on such Indemnifying Lender's
Indemnity Amount of any portion of such costs or expenses which is not
reimbursed by or on behalf of Goss UK, Goss France or Goss Japan, as the case
may be. If Administrative Agent recovers any amounts for which Administrative
Agent has previously been reimbursed by an Indemnifying Lender hereunder,
Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to such Indemnifying Lender such
Indemnifying Lender's proportionate share thereof based on such Indemnifying
Lender's Indemnity Amount.

     E. CERTAIN TAX MATTERS. Each Indemnifying Lender agrees to deliver to
Administrative Agent from time to time upon request such certificates,
statements, documents, forms or other evidence, properly completed and executed
by such Indemnifying Lender, as may be required at any time in order to comply
with any applicable tax laws or regulations or to confirm or maintain in effect
such Indemnifying Lender's entitlement to exemption from or reduction of any
applicable withholding tax on any payments hereunder. Each Indemnifying Lender
hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Administrative Agent from any
applicable taxes, penalties, interest and other expenses, costs and losses
incurred or payable by Administrative Agent as a result of either (i) such
Indemnifying Lender's failure to submit any statement, document, form or
certificate or other evidence that such Indemnifying Lender is required to
provide pursuant to this subsection or (ii) Administrative Agent's reliance on
any such statement, document, form or certificate or other evidence which such
Indemnifying Lender has provided to Administrative Agent pursuant to this
subsection.

     F. INDEMNIFYING LENDER CONSENT. Notwithstanding any provision to the
contrary contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents and so long as
an


                                   Annex C-3
<PAGE>

Indemnifying Lender has not failed to make any payments required to be made by
such Indemnifying Lender under this subsection 2.9 or is not otherwise in
default under its obligations under this subsection 2.9, Administrative Agent
hereby agrees that, to the extent of but only to the extent of such Indemnifying
Lender's proportionate share based on its Indemnity Amount, Administrative Agent
will not agree to any amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any
provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or to any departure by
Goss UK, Goss France or Goss Japan, as the case may be, therefrom, in each case
related to the Indemnity Participation without the prior written consent of such
Indemnifying Lender. Nothing herein contained shall prevent Administrative Agent
from consenting to any amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any
provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or to any departure by
Goss UK, Goss France or Goss Japan, as the case may be, therefrom, to the extent
unrelated to the Indemnity Participation or to the extent that Administrative
Agent's interests or Pro Rata Share is not related to the Indemnity
Participation or the Indemnity Amount.

     G. FAILURE TO MAKE REQUIRED PAYMENTS. In the event that any Person
obligated to make a payment to any other Person pursuant to this subsection 2.9
fails to make available to the Person entitled to receive such payment the
amount of such payment, the Person entitled to receive such payment shall be
entitled to recover such amount on demand from such other Person, together with
interest at the customary rate set by Administrative Agent for the correction of
errors among Lenders for three Business Days and thereafter at the sum of the
Base Rate plus 1.50% per annum.

     H. ASSIGNMENT MATTERS. Administrative Agent may from time to time sell or
transfer to other Persons assignments or participations or other interests in
Administrative Agent's UK Revolving Loans and UK Revolving Loan Commitments,
French Revolving Loans and French Revolving Loan Commitments or Japanese
Revolving Loans and Japanese Revolving Loan Commitments, as the case may be, but
not in the portion thereof allocated to the Indemnity Participation hereunder.
An Indemnifying Lender's Indemnity Participation may not be sold, pledged,
assigned, or otherwise transferred (i) without Administrative Agent's prior
written consent; provided that this restriction shall not apply to any such
transfer to any of such Indemnifying Lender's Affiliates; or (ii) without a pro
rata assignment in accordance with subsection 10.1B of each Type of Revolving
Loan Commitment and Revolving Loan held by such Indemnifying Lender.

     I. MISCELLANEOUS. In no event shall the Indemnity Participation be
construed as a loan or other extension of credit by an Indemnifying Lender to
Administrative Agent. In no event shall this Agreement be construed to require
an Indemnifying Lender to make any Loans or to otherwise extend any credit to
Goss UK, Goss France or Goss Japan, as the case may be, or to Administrative
Agent under this Agreement or under the other Loan Documents. In no event shall
this Agreement be construed to require an Indemnifying Lender to fund or pay to
Administrative Agent such Indemnifying Lender's Indemnity Amount except upon the
occurrence of a Triggering Event pursuant to subsection 2.9A. Each Indemnifying
Lender agrees that Administrative Agent may take legal action to enforce or
protect an Indemnifying Lender's or Administrative Agent's interests in respect
of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
