reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, to be held by the
Administrative Agent upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

         3.02 Uncertificated Securities. With respect to Pledged Securities that

stock dividend or otherwise any Additional Securities at any time or from time
to time after the date hereof, the Pledgor will forthwith notify the
Administrative Agent of such acquisition and shall immediately take such action

Securities, whether Certificated or Uncertificated, or other Securities
Collateral, now held or hereafter acquired by the Pledgor are held by the
Pledgor or its nominee through a Securities Intermediary, the Pledgor shall

dissolution, recapitalization or reclassification of the Issuer, or otherwise,
that are received by the Pledgor shall be paid over and delivered to the
Administrative Agent and held or applied, as the case may be, as provided in

Obligations. Some or all of the funds from time to time in the Cash Collateral
Account may be invested in time deposits, including, without limitation,
certificates of deposit issued by the Administrative Agent (such certificates of
deposit or other time deposits being hereinafter referred to, collectively, as
"TIME DEPOSITS"), that are satisfactory to the Administrative Agent after
consultation with the Pledgor, provided that, in each such case, arrangements

on the Time Deposits, and the principal of the Time Deposits at maturity that is
not invested in new Time Deposits, shall be deposited in the Cash Collateral
Account. The Cash Collateral Account, all sums from time to time standing to the
credit of the Cash Collateral Account, all Time Deposits, all instruments or

foregoing, are hereinafter referred to as the "CASH COLLATERAL".

         (c) except as otherwise expressly provided in Article 12, the Pledgor

the Pledgor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the stock transfer books
of each Scheduled Subsidiary to be held by the Administrative Agent for the
duration of the pledge hereunder, provided that prior to the occurrence and

Default, the Pledgor shall only be required to deliver copies of such stock
transfer books to the Administrative Agent.

         3.07 Items Held in Trust. All items required to be paid or delivered to

Commercial Code of the applicable jurisdiction for the sufficiency or Filing
Office acceptance of any Financing Statement, including whether the Pledgor is

Agent to file a copy of this Agreement in lieu of a Financing Statement, and to

ARTICLE 4.  DIVIDENDS; VOTING.

         4.01 Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
the Pledgor shall be entitled to receive all cash dividends and distributions
paid in respect of the Pledged Securities without delivering such sums to the
Administrative Agent or depositing such sums in the Cash Collateral Account, to
vote and exercise any and all other voting and consensual rights with respect to
the Pledged Securities and to give consents, waivers or ratifications in respect
thereof, provided that no vote shall be cast or consent, waiver or ratification
given or action taken which would violate or be inconsistent with any of the
terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or which could reasonably be
expected to have an adverse effect on the interest of the Administrative Agent
in the Securities Collateral.

         4.02 Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, (i) the Pledgor's rights under Section 4.01 shall immediately cease,

Securities shall be deposited to the Cash Collateral Account in accordance with
the provisions of Article 3, and (iii) the Administrative Agent shall have the

the Pledged Securities. If the Administrative Agent elects not to exercise such

Securities that could reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on the
interest of


                                      -7-
<PAGE>
the Administrative Agent in the Securities Collateral, and if so directed in
writing, shall vote or take such other action as directed by the Administrative
Agent. The Pledgor hereby grants to the Pledgee, an irrevocable proxy to
exercise all voting and consensual rights with respect to the Pledged Securities
and to give consents, waivers or ratifications in respect thereof, which proxy
shall only be effective upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and shall
remain effective during the continuance of an Event of Default.

ARTICLE 5. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF PLEDGOR. For so long as
this Agreement shall remain in effect, the Pledgor represents, warrants and

execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement and to pledge
and grant a security interest in all of the Securities Collateral. The
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, and the pledge of and
granting of a security interest in the Securities Collateral hereunder, have
been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action of the Pledgor
and do not contravene (i) any law, rule or regulation, (ii) any provision of the
Pledgor's charter documents or by-laws, (iii) any judgment, decree or order of
any arbitrator, court or other adjudicatory or regulatory body or (iv) any
agreement or instrument to which the Pledgor is a party or by which it or any of
its property is bound or affected or constitute a default thereunder other than
those, in the case of clauses (i) and (iv), that could not reasonably be
expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.

         5.02 The Pledgor is the owner, legally, beneficially and of record, of
all of the Scheduled Securities free of any Encumbrances, except for
Encumbrances specifically permitted under the terms of the Loan Agreement. All

paid and nonassessable.

         5.03 The Pledgor covenants that, with respect to any Additional
Securities that it may pledge to the Administrative Agent in the future, at the
time of such pledge, (a) the Pledgor will be the legal, beneficial and record
owner of such Additional Securities free of any Encumbrances, except for
Encumbrances specifically permitted under the terms of the Loan Agreement, (b)
the Pledgor will have the requisite legal right, power and authority to pledge
same to the Administrative Agent hereunder and (c) all such Additional
Securities shall be duly and validly issued, and will be fully paid and

Issuer and (ii) the total number of such Securities that have been pledged
hereunder. With respect to each Foreign Subsidiary whose capital stock is
pledged hereunder by the Pledgor, the Pledgor has pledged stock representing 65%
of the total combined voting power of all classes of capital stock of such
Foreign Subsidiary entitled to vote.

thereto and the delivery by the Pledgor of the Scheduled Securities and related
certificates to the Administrative Agent accompanied by instruments of transfer
or assignment duly executed in blank in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent or, if a security interest in any of
the Securities Collateral may not under applicable law be perfected by
possession, then upon the filing of appropriate Financing Statements, the
Administrative Agent will obtain a valid first lien on, and perfected security
interest in, the Securities Collateral and the Proceeds thereof, subject to no
prior Encumbrance.

         5.06 The Pledgor will defend the security interest of the
Administrative Agent in the Securities Collateral against the competing claims
and demands of all other Persons, other than claims or demands related to
Encumbrances specifically permitted under the terms of the Loan Agreement.

         5.07 Except as may be permitted by the Loan Agreement, the Pledgor will
not (a) sell or otherwise dispose of, grant any option with respect to, or
mortgage, pledge (except pursuant to this Agreement) or otherwise encumber any
of the Securities Collateral, any shares in the capital stock of any Subsidiary,
or any membership or other ownership interest therein, or (b) consent to or
approve the issuance of (i) any additional shares of any class of capital stock
of any Subsidiary, or the issuance of any membership or other ownership interest
in any Subsidiary; (ii) any securities convertible voluntarily by the holder
thereof or automatically upon the occurrence or nonoccurrence of any event or
condition into, or exchangeable for, any such shares or interests; or (iii) any
warrants, options, rights, or other commitments entitling any person to purchase
or otherwise acquire any such shares or interests except pursuant to an employee
stock option plan of such Subsidiary authorizing the grant of no more than 30%
of such Subsidiary's shares or interests.

         5.08 The Pledgor, at its sole cost and expense, will execute and
deliver all such instruments, and take all such other action as the
Administrative Agent from time to time may reasonably request, in order to
further effectuate the purposes of this Agreement and to carry out the terms
hereof.

         (a) In the event of any disposition of the Securities Collateral as
provided in Section 6.01(e), the Administrative Agent shall give to the Pledgor
at least ten (10) days' prior written notice of the time and place of any public
sale of the Securities Collateral or of the time after which any private sale or
any other intended disposition is intended to be made. The Pledgor hereby
acknowledges that ten (10) days' prior written notice of such sale or sales
constitutes reasonable notice. If any of the Securities Collateral is sold by
the Administrative Agent upon credit or for future delivery, the Administrative
Agent shall not be liable for the failure of the purchaser to pay for the same
and in such event the Administrative Agent may resell such Securities
Collateral. At any public sale of Securities Collateral, unless prohibited by
applicable law, the Administrative Agent or any holder of the Obligations may
bid for and purchase all or any part of the Securities Collateral so sold free
from any such right or equity of redemption; and if any part or all


                                      -10-
<PAGE>
of the Securities Collateral is of a type customarily sold in a recognized
market or is of the type which is the subject of widely-distributed standard
price quotations, the Administrative Agent or any holder of the Obligations may
buy at a private sale and may make payment therefor by any means including,
without limitation, cancellation of indebtedness secured thereby and payment of
any surplus to the Pledgor or such other party as may be required by applicable
law.

         (b) The Pledgor recognizes that the Administrative Agent may be unable
to effect a public sale of the Pledged Securities by reason of certain
prohibitions contained in the Securities Act, federal banking laws or other
applicable laws, regulations, or agreements to which such Pledged Securities may
be subject and, therefore, may be compelled to resort to one or more private
sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Pledgor shall not be required to register the Pledged Securities
under the Securities Act or applicable state or foreign law securities laws. The
Pledgor agrees that any such private sales, which may be at prices and other
terms less favorable to the seller than if sold at public sales, shall be deemed
to have been made in a "commercially reasonable" manner within the meaning of
the NY UCC, provided that the notice specified in Section 6.02(a) shall have
been given to the Pledgor. The Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation
to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Securities for the period of time
necessary to permit the Issuer of such Pledged Securities to register same for
public sale under the Securities Act, or such other federal banking or
applicable laws, even if the Issuer agrees to do so. Subject to the foregoing,
the Administrative Agent agrees that any sale of the Securities Collateral shall
be made in a commercially reasonable manner.

         (c) The Pledgor agrees to do or cause to be done all acts and things as
may be reasonably necessary to cause the sale(s) of all or any portion of the
Securities Collateral pursuant to this Article 6 to be valid and binding and to
comply with any and all applicable laws, including, without limitation, the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act, SEC and other regulations, orders, writs,
injunctions or decrees of any and all courts, arbitrators or governmental
agencies or similar regulatory bodies having jurisdiction over any such sale or
sales, all at the Pledgor's sole cost and expense except that the Pledgor shall
not be required to register the Pledged Securities under the Securities Act or
applicable state or foreign law securities laws. In furtherance and not in
limitation of the foregoing, at the request of the Administrative Agent, the
Pledgor shall use best efforts to cause any Issuer(s) of Securities Collateral
contemplated to be sold:

                  (i) to execute and deliver, and to cause its directors and
officers to execute and deliver, all instruments and documents, and to do or
cause to be done all other acts and things as may be necessary or advisable (in
the opinion of legal counsel to the Administrative Agent) to cause such Pledged
Securities to be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities
Act; and

                  (ii) to comply with the provisions of the securities or "Blue
Sky" laws of any jurisdiction which the Administrative Agent shall reasonably
designate and, if


                                      -11-
<PAGE>
required, to make available to its Security holders, as soon as practicable, an
earnings statement (which need not be audited) which will allow Persons to take
advantage of the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act.

         6.03 Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact. The Pledgor hereby irrevocably
appoints the Administrative Agent as the Pledgor's attorney-in-fact with full
power of substitution, effective upon the occurrence and during the continuance
of an Event of Default, to take any and all of the actions specified in this
Article 6 and elsewhere in this Agreement with full authority in the name of the
Pledgor and at the Pledgor's sole cost and expense. This power of attorney is
coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable for so long as this Agreement
shall remain in effect.

         6.04 Injunctive Relief. The Pledgor acknowledges that a breach of any
of the covenants contained in this Article 6 will cause irreparable injury to
the Administrative Agent and the Banks, and that the Administrative Agent and
the Banks have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach. As a
consequence, the Pledgor agrees that each and every covenant contained in this
Article 6 shall be specifically enforceable against the Pledgor, and the Pledgor
hereby (i) agrees not to assert in defense of any action for specific
performance that the Administrative Agent has not suffered irreparable harm or
that the Administrative Agent has an adequate remedy at law, and (ii) waives any
defense based upon the grounds set forth in clause (i) of this Section 6.04.

ARTICLE 7. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. Each right, power and remedy of the
Administrative Agent or any holder of the Obligations provided for in this
Agreement, the other Loan Documents, or now or hereafter existing at law or in
equity, or otherwise, shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in
addition to every other such right, power or remedy. The exercise or beginning
of the exercise by the Administrative Agent or any holder of the Obligations of
one or more of such rights, powers or remedies shall not preclude the
simultaneous or subsequent exercise by the Administrative Agent or any holder of
the Obligations of all such other rights, powers or remedies, and no failure or
delay on the part of the Administrative Agent or any holder of the Obligations
to exercise any such right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof.

ARTICLE 8. MARSHALLING. The Administrative Agent may exercise its rights with
respect to the Securities Collateral without resorting or regard to other
collateral or sources of reimbursement. The Administrative Agent shall not be
required to marshal any present or future collateral security for, or other
assurances of payment of, the Obligations or any of them, or to resort to such
collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order. To
the extent that it may lawfully do so, the Pledgor hereby (a) agrees that it
will not invoke any law relating to the marshalling of collateral that might
cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Administrative Agent's rights
with respect to the Obligations or any of the Collateral and (b) irrevocably
waives the benefits of all such laws.


                                      -12-
<PAGE>
ARTICLE 9. APPLICATION OF MONEYS BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. All monies
collected upon any sale of the Securities Collateral hereunder, together with
all other monies received by the Administrative Agent hereunder, shall be
applied as follows (i) first, to the payment of all reasonable costs and
expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with such sale, the
delivery of the Securities Collateral or the collection of any such monies
(including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and all other
expenses reasonably incurred); (ii) second, to satisfy the Obligations in such
manner as the Administrative Agent shall determine in its sole discretion
consistent with the Loan Agreement; and (iii) third, to the extent of any
surplus Proceeds, to the Pledgor or to such other Person(s) as may be legally
entitled to same.

ARTICLE 10. PLEDGOR'S OBLIGATIONS ABSOLUTE. The Obligations of the Pledgor under
this Agreement shall be absolute and unconditional and shall remain in full
force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, suspended,
discharged, terminated or otherwise affected by, any circumstance or occurrence
whatsoever, including, without limitation: (a) any renewal, extension, amendment
or modification of or addition or supplement to or deletion from the other Loan
Documents, or any assignment or transfer of the other Loan Documents; (b) any
waiver, consent, extension, indulgence or other action or inaction under or in
respect of the Loan Documents; (c) any furnishing of any additional collateral
security to the Administrative Agent or its assignee or any acceptance thereof
or any release of any collateral security by the Administrative Agent or its
assignee; (d) any limitation on any party's liability or obligations under the
Loan Documents or any invalidity or unenforceablity, in whole or in part, of the
same; or (e) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition,
adjustment, dissolution, liquidation or other like proceeding relating to the
Pledgor or any other Person, or any action taken with respect to this Agreement
by any trustee or receiver or by any court, in any such proceeding; whether or
not the Pledgor shall have notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing. The
Pledgor expressly consents to any and all of the foregoing and, to the maximum
extent permitted by law, waives any rights or defenses relating to the
enforcement of this Agreement that the Pledgor may have in connection therewith.
Except for notices specifically provided for herein, the Pledgor hereby
expressly waives demand, notice, protest, notice of acceptance of this
Agreement, notice of loans made, credit extended, collateral received or
delivered or other action taken in reliance hereon and all other demands and
notices of any description.

ARTICLE 11. EXONERATION OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. Under no circumstances shall
the Administrative Agent be deemed to assume any responsibility for or
obligation or duty with respect to any part or all of the Securities Collateral
of any nature or kind, or any matter or proceedings arising out of or relating
thereto, other than (i) to exercise reasonable care in the physical custody of
the Securities Collateral and (ii) following the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, to act in a commercially reasonable manner.
The Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action of any kind to
collect, preserve or protect its or the Pledgor's rights in the Securities
Collateral or against any other Person. The Administrative Agent's prior
recourse to any


                                      -13-
<PAGE>
part or all of the Securities Collateral shall not constitute a condition of any
demand, suit or proceeding for payment or collection of the Obligations.

ARTICLE 12. TERMINATION. The obligations of the Pledgor hereunder shall
terminate when the commitment of the Banks to extend credit under the Loan
Agreement shall have terminated and all of the Obligations have been paid in
full in cash and discharged and promptly upon such full and complete performance
and satisfaction, Pledgee shall surrender, at the request and expense of the
Pledgor, any remaining Securities Collateral and money received in respect
thereof to the Pledgor; provided, however, that:

                  (a) if a claim is made upon the Administrative Agent or the
Banks at any time for repayment or recovery of any amounts or any property
received by the Administrative Agent or the Banks from any source on account of
any of the Obligations and the Administrative Agent or the Banks repay or return
any amounts or property so received (including interest thereon to the extent
required to be paid by the Administrative Agent or the Banks) or

                  (b) if the Administrative Agent or the Banks become liable for
any part of such claim by reason of (i) any judgment or order of any court or
administrative authority having competent jurisdiction, or (ii) any settlement
or compromise of any such claim,

then the Pledgor shall remain obligated under this Agreement with respect to the
amounts so repaid or property so returned and the amounts for which the
Administrative Agent or the Banks become liable (such amounts being deemed part
of the Obligations), and the security interest granted herein shall apply with
full force and effect to such Obligations, to the same extent as if such amounts
or property had never been received by the Administrative Agent or the Banks,
notwithstanding any termination hereof or the cancellation of any instrument or
agreement evidencing any of the Obligations.

ARTICLE 13. OVERDUE AMOUNTS. Until paid, all amounts due and payable by the
Pledgor hereunder shall constitute an Obligation under the Loan Documents and
shall be secured by the Securities Collateral. Such amounts shall bear interest
at the rate per annum provided in the Loan Agreement to be paid on Base Rate
Loans after the occurrence of an Event of Default.

ARTICLE 14.  MISCELLANEOUS.

         14.01 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the
Pledgor, the Administrative Agent and the Banks and their respective successors
and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the
Banks and their respective successors, transferees and assigns, as permitted by
the Loan Agreement. The Pledgor may not assign any of its obligations hereunder
without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.


                                      -14-
<PAGE>
         14.02 Survival. All representations, warranties, covenants and
agreements contained in this Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery
of the Loan Documents and shall continue for so long as this Agreement shall
remain in effect.

         14.03 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held
invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, that holding
shall not invalidate or render unenforceable any other provision hereof.

         14.04 Amendments; Waiver, Etc. No provision of this Agreement, or any
right of the Administrative Agent in respect of the Obligations, can be changed,
waived, modified, discharged or terminated except by an instrument in writing
signed by the Administrative Agent and the Pledgor expressly referring to the
provision of this Agreement or the right to which such instrument relates; and
no such waiver shall extend to, affect or impair any right with respect to any
obligation which is not expressly dealt with therein. No course of dealing or
delay or omission on the part of the Administrative Agent or the Banks or any of
them in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such right or any
other right, or otherwise be prejudicial thereto. A waiver on any one occasion
shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any right on any future
occasion.

         14.05 Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendment hereof may be
executed in several counterparts by each party on a separate counterpart, each
of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which
together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

         14.06 Captions. Captions and headings in this Agreement are for
convenience only and in no way define, limit or describe the scope or intent of
the provisions hereof.

         14.07 Notices. All notices, approvals, requests, demands and other
communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been
given when delivered in the manner provided in the Loan Agreement and delivered
to a party at its address for notice set forth in the Loan Agreement or to such
other address as a party shall furnish by notice to the other parties.

         14.08 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and
interpreted and defined in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York
(without regard to its principles relating to choice and conflicts of law).

         14.09 CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. THE PLEDGOR AND ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
EACH AGREES THAT ANY SUIT FOR THE ENFORCEMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE BROUGHT
IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK LOCATED IN NEW YORK COUNTY, OR IN THE
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SITTING IN NEW YORK, NEW YORK, OR ANY APPELLATE
COURT TO WHICH APPEALS MAY BE TAKEN FROM ANY OF THE FOREGOING COURTS, AND
CONSENTS TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS AND TO SERVICE OF
PROCESS IN ANY


                                      -15-
<PAGE>
SUCH SUIT BEING MADE UPON THE PLEDGOR BY MAIL AT THE ADDRESS ABOVE. THE PLEDGOR
AND ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT EACH HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR
HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH SUIT OR ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH SUIT
IS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT COURT.

         14.10 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PLEDGOR AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY
JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY CLAIM BASED HEREON, ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN
CONNECTION WITH THIS PLEDGE AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS CONTEMPLATED
TO BE EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF
DEALINGS, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY. THIS
WAIVER CONSTITUTES A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT TO ENTER
INTO THIS PLEDGE AGREEMENT AND FOR THE BANKS TO MAKE LOANS AND EXTEND CREDIT TO
THE PLEDGOR. EXCEPT AS PROHIBITED BY LAW, EACH OF THE PLEDGOR AND ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT WAIVES ANY RIGHT WHICH IT MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER IN ANY LITIGATION
REFERRED TO IN THE FIRST SENTENCE OF THIS SECTION ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY,
PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR ANY DAMAGES OTHER THAN, OR IN ADDITION TO,
ACTUAL DAMAGES. THE PLEDGOR (I) CERTIFIES THAT NEITHER THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT,
NOR ANY BANK NOR ANY REPRESENTATIVE, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY BANK HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY BANK WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK
TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVERS AND (II) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT, IN ENTERING INTO
THE LOAN AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS TO WHICH THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT IS A PARTY, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE BANKS ARE RELYING UPON, AMONG
OTHER THINGS, THE WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION.
