month occurring after the Effective Date and (ii) on any date on which the
principal balance of such Loan is due and payable in full (whether at maturity,
due to acceleration or otherwise). Interest payable at the Post-Default Rate
shall be payable from


                                     - 23 -
<PAGE>
time to time on demand by the Agent or the Requisite Lenders. All determinations
by the Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding on
the Lenders and the Borrower for all purposes, absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.3. NUMBER OF INTEREST PERIODS.

      There may be no more than 5 different Interest Periods outstanding at the
same time.

SECTION 2.4. REPAYMENT OF LOANS.

      The Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding principal amount of, and
all accrued but unpaid interest on, the Term Loans on the Termination Date.

SECTION 2.5. PREPAYMENTS.

      (a) Optional. During the period from the Effective Date to but excluding
the date which is one year following the Effective Date, the Borrower may not
voluntarily prepay any Term Loan in whole or part. At anytime on or after the
date which is one year following the Effective Date, the Borrower may
voluntarily prepay any Loan in whole or part upon at least 30-days' prior
written notice to the Agent.

      (b) Mandatory. If at any time the aggregate principal amount of all
outstanding Loans exceeds the Maximum Availability, the Borrower shall within 5
days of the Borrower obtaining knowledge of the occurrence of any such excess,
deliver to the Agent for prompt distribution to each Lender a written plan
acceptable to all of the Lenders to eliminate such excess. If such excess is not
eliminated within 15 days of the Borrower obtaining knowledge of the occurrence
thereof, then the entire outstanding principal balance of all Loans, together
with all accrued interest thereon, shall be immediately due and payable in full.

SECTION 2.6. LATE CHARGES.

      If any payment required under this Agreement is not paid within 10 days
after it becomes due and payable, the Borrower shall pay a late charge for late
payment to compensate the Lenders for the loss of use of funds and for the
expenses of handling the delinquent payment, in an amount equal to four percent
(4.0%) of such delinquent payment. Such late charge shall be paid in any event
not later than the due date of the next subsequent installment of principal
and/or interest. In the event the maturity of the Obligations hereunder occurs
or is accelerated pursuant to Section 11.2., this Section shall apply only to
payments overdue prior to the time of such acceleration. This Section shall not
be deemed to be a waiver of the Lenders' right to accelerate payment of any of
the Obligations as permitted under the terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 2.7. CONTINUATION.

      So long as no Default or Event of Default exists, the Borrower may on any
Business Day, with respect to any LIBOR Loan, elect to maintain such LIBOR Loan
or any portion thereof as a LIBOR Loan by selecting a new Interest Period for
such LIBOR Loan. Each new Interest Period selected under this Section shall
commence on the last day of the immediately preceding Interest



                                     - 24 -
<PAGE>
Period. Each selection of a new Interest Period shall be made by the Borrower
giving to the Agent a Notice of Continuation not later than 9:00 a.m. on the
third Business Day prior to the date of any such Continuation. Such notice by
the Borrower of a Continuation shall be by telecopy, electronic mail (but in the
case of electronic mail, only if the Agent has approved delivery of such notice
by electronic mail) or other form of communication in the form of a Notice of
Continuation, specifying (a) the proposed date of such Continuation, (b) the
LIBOR Loan and portion thereof subject to such Continuation and (c) the duration
of the selected Interest Period, all of which shall be specified in such manner
as is necessary to comply with all limitations on Loans outstanding hereunder.
Each Notice of Continuation shall be irrevocable by and binding on the Borrower
once given. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Continuation, the Agent shall
notify each Lender by telecopy, electronic mail (but in the case of electronic
mail, only to any Lender which has approved delivery of such notice by
electronic mail) or other similar form of transmission of the proposed
Continuation. If the Borrower shall fail to select in a timely manner a new
Interest Period for any LIBOR Loan in accordance with this Section, such Loan
will automatically, on the last day of the current Interest Period therefor,
Convert into a Base Rate Loan notwithstanding failure of the Borrower to comply
with Section 2.8.

SECTION 2.8. CONVERSION.

      So long as no Default or Event of Default exists, the Borrower may on any
Business Day, upon the Borrower's giving of a Notice of Conversion to the Agent,
Convert all or a portion of a Loan of one Type into a Loan of another Type. Any
Conversion of a LIBOR Loan into a Base Rate Loan shall be made on, and only on,
the last day of an Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan and, upon Conversion of a
Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan, the Borrower shall pay accrued interest to the
date of Conversion on the principal amount so Converted. Each such Notice of
Conversion shall be given not later than 9:00 a.m. one Business Day prior to the
date of any proposed Conversion into Base Rate Loans and three Business Days
prior to the date of any proposed Conversion into LIBOR Loans. Promptly after
receipt of a Notice of Conversion, the Agent shall notify each Lender by
telecopy, electronic mail (but in the case of electronic mail, only to any
Lender which has approved delivery of such notice by electronic mail) or other
similar form of transmission of the proposed Conversion. Subject to the
restrictions specified above, each Notice of Conversion shall be by telecopy in
the form of a Notice of Conversion specifying (a) the requested date of such
Conversion, (b) the Type of Loan to be Converted, (c) the portion of such Type
of Loan to be Converted, (d) the Type of Loan such Loan is to be Converted into
and (e) if such Conversion is into a LIBOR Loan, the requested duration of the
Interest Period of such Loan. Each Notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable by
and binding on the Borrower once given.

SECTION 2.9. NOTES.

      The Term Loans made by each Lender shall, in addition to this Agreement,
also be evidenced by a promissory note of the Borrower substantially in the form
of Exhibit G (each a "Term Note"), payable to the order of such Lender in a
principal amount equal to the amount of its Commitment as originally in effect
and otherwise duly completed.

SECTION 2.10. AMOUNT LIMITATIONS.

      Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, no Lender shall be
required to make any Loan if, immediately after the making of such Loan the
aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Loans would exceed the Maximum
Availability.

            ARTICLE III. PAYMENTS, FEES AND OTHER GENERAL PROVISIONS

SECTION 3.1. PAYMENTS.

      Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, all payments of principal,
interest and other amounts to be made by the Borrower under this Agreement or
any other Loan Document shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available
funds, without deduction, set-off or counterclaim, to the Agent, not later than
11:00 a.m. on the date on which such payment shall become due (each such payment
made after such time on such due date to be deemed to have been made on the next
succeeding Business Day). The Borrower shall, at the time of making each payment
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, specify to the Agent the
amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder to which such payment is to be
applied. Each payment received by the Agent for the account of a Lender under
this Agreement or any Note of such Lender shall be paid to such Lender, by wire
transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the wiring
instructions provided by such Lender to the Agent from time to time, for the
account of such Lender at the applicable Lending Office of such Lender. If the
Agent fails to pay such amount to a Lender within one Business Day of receipt
thereof by the Agent, the Agent shall pay interest on such amount until paid at
a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. If
the due date of any payment under this Agreement or any other Loan Document
would otherwise fall on a day which is not a Business Day such date shall be
extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest shall continue to
accrue at the rate, if any, applicable to such payment.

SECTION 3.2. PRO RATA TREATMENT.

      Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (a) each borrowing from
the Lenders under Section 2.1.(a) shall be made from the Lenders, and each
payment of the Fees under Section 3.6.(b) shall be made for the account of the
Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Commitments; (b)
each payment or prepayment of principal of Term Loans by the Borrower shall be
made for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective
unpaid principal amounts of the Term Loans held by them; (c) each payment of
interest on Term Loans by the Borrower shall be made for the account of the
Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Loans then
due and payable to the respective Lenders; and (d) the making, Conversion and
Continuation of Term Loans of a particular Type (other than Conversions provided
for by Section 5.5.) shall be made pro rata among the Lenders according to the
amounts of their respective Commitments (in the case of making of Loans) or
their respective Loans (in the case of Conversions and Continuations of Loans)
and the then current Interest Period for each Lender's portion of each Loan of
such Type shall be coterminous.



                                     - 26 -
<PAGE>
SECTION 3.3. SHARING OF PAYMENTS, ETC.

      If a Lender shall obtain payment of any principal of, or interest on, any
Loan made by it to the Borrower under this Agreement, or shall obtain payment on
any other Obligation owing by the Borrower or any other Loan Party through the
exercise of any right of set-off, banker's lien or counterclaim or similar right
or otherwise or through voluntary prepayments directly to a Lender or other
payments made by the Borrower or any other Loan Party to a Lender not in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such payment should be
distributed to the Lenders pro rata in accordance with Section 3.2. or Section
11.5., as applicable, such Lender shall promptly purchase from the other Lenders
participations in (or, if and to the extent specified by such Lender, direct
interests in) the Loans made by the other Lenders or other Obligations owed to
such other Lenders in such amounts, pay such amounts to the other Lenders and
make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, so that all
the Lenders shall share the benefit of such payment (net of any reasonable
expenses which may be incurred by such Lender in obtaining or preserving such
benefit) pro rata in accordance with Section 3.2. or Section 11.5. To such end,
all the Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the
resale of participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must
otherwise be restored. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a
participation (or direct interest) in the Loans or other Obligations owed to
such other Lenders may exercise all rights of set-off, banker's lien,
counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if
such Lender were a direct holder of Loans in the amount of such participation.
Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any such right or
shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise, and retain the benefits of
exercising, any such right with respect to any other indebtedness or obligation
of the Borrower.

SECTION 3.4. SEVERAL OBLIGATIONS.

      No Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make
a Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by such other
Lender hereunder, and the failure of any Lender to make a Loan or to perform any
other obligation to be made or performed by it hereunder shall not relieve the
obligation of any other Lender to make any Loan or to perform any other
obligation to be made or performed by such other Lender.

SECTION 3.5. MINIMUM AMOUNTS.

      (a) Borrowings. Each borrowing of Base Rate Loans shall be in an aggregate
minimum amount of $10,000,000 and integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess
thereof. Each borrowing of and Continuation of, and each Conversion of Base Rate
Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $15,000,000
and integral multiples of $3,000,000 in excess of that amount.

      (b) Prepayments. To the extent permitted by Section 2.5., each voluntary
prepayment of Term Loans shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $5,000,000
and integral multiples of $2,500,000 in excess thereof.



                                     - 27 -

SECTION 3.6. FEES.

      (a) Closing Fee. On the Effective Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the
Agent and each Lender all loan fees as have been agreed to in writing by the
Borrower and the Agent or each Lender, as applicable.

      (b) Unused Facility Fee. During the period from the date which is 60 days
following the Effective Date to but excluding the Commitment Termination Date,
the Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of the Lenders an unused
facility fee equal to the aggregate amount of the unutilized Commitments times
0.20% per annum. Such fee shall be computed on a daily basis and payable
quarterly in arrears on the last day of each September and December during such
period and on the Commitment Termination Date.

      (c) Administrative and Other Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay the
administrative and other fees of the Agent as may be agreed to in writing from
time to time.

SECTION 3.7. COMPUTATIONS.

      Unless otherwise expressly set forth herein, any accrued interest on any
Loan, any Fees or any other Obligations due hereunder shall be computed on the
basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed.

SECTION 3.8. USURY.

      In no event shall the amount of interest due or payable on the Loans or
other Obligations exceed the maximum rate of interest allowed by Applicable Law
and, if any such payment is paid by the Borrower or received by any Lender, then
such excess sum shall be credited as a payment of principal, unless the Borrower
shall notify the respective Lender in writing that the Borrower elects to have
such excess sum returned to it forthwith. It is the express intent of the
parties hereto that the Borrower not pay and the Lenders not receive, directly
or indirectly, in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may be
lawfully paid by the Borrower under Applicable Law. The parties hereto hereby
agree and stipulate that the only charge imposed upon the Borrower for the use
of money in connection with this Agreement is and shall be the interest
specifically described in Section 2.2.(a)(i) and (ii). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the parties hereto further agree and stipulate that all agency fees,
syndication fees, facility fees, letter of credit fees, underwriting fees,
default charges, late charges, funding or "breakage" charges, increased cost
charges, attorneys' fees and reimbursement for costs and expenses paid by the
Agent or any Lender to third parties or for damages incurred by the Agent or any
Lender, are charges made to compensate the Agent or any such Lender for
underwriting or administrative services and costs or losses performed or
incurred, and to be performed or incurred, by the Agent and the Lenders in
connection with this Agreement and shall under no circumstances be deemed to be
charges for the use of money. All charges other than charges for the use of
money shall be fully earned and nonrefundable when due.



                                     - 28 -
<PAGE>
SECTION 3.9. STATEMENTS OF ACCOUNT.

      The Agent will account to the Borrower monthly with a statement of Loans,
accrued interest and Fees, charges and payments made pursuant to this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents, and such account rendered by the Agent shall be
deemed conclusive upon the Borrower absent manifest error. The failure of the
Agent to deliver such a statement of accounts shall not relieve or discharge the
Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder.

SECTION 3.10. DEFAULTING LENDERS.

      If for any reason any Lender (a "Defaulting Lender") shall fail or refuse
to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document to which it is a party within the time period specified for performance
of such obligation or, if no time period is specified, if such failure or
refusal continues for a period of two Business Days after notice from the Agent,
then, in addition to the rights and remedies that may be available to the Agent
or the Borrower under this Agreement or Applicable Law, such Defaulting Lender's
right to participate in the administration of the Loans, this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, including without limitation, any right to vote in respect
of, to consent to or to direct any action or inaction of the Agent or to be
taken into account in the calculation of the Requisite Lenders, shall be
suspended during the pendency of such failure or refusal. If a Lender is a
Defaulting Lender because it has failed to make timely payment to the Agent of
any amount required to be paid to the Agent hereunder (without giving effect to
any notice or cure periods), in addition to other rights and remedies which the
Agent or the Borrower may have under the immediately preceding provisions or
otherwise, the Agent shall be entitled (i) to collect interest from such
Defaulting Lender on such delinquent payment for the period from the date on
which the payment was due until the date on which the payment is made at the
Federal Funds Rate, (ii) to withhold or setoff and to apply in satisfaction of
the defaulted payment and any related interest, any amounts otherwise payable to
such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (iii)
to bring an action or suit against such Defaulting Lender in a court of
competent jurisdiction to recover the defaulted amount and any related interest.
Any amounts received by the Agent in respect of a Defaulting Lender's Loans
shall not be paid to such Defaulting Lender and shall be held uninvested by the
Agent and paid to such Defaulting Lender upon the Defaulting Lender's curing of
its default.

SECTION 3.11. TAXES.

       (a) Taxes Generally. All payments by the Borrower of principal of, and
interest on, the Loans and all other Obligations shall be made free and clear of
and without deduction for any present or future excise, stamp or other taxes,
fees, duties, levies, imposts, charges, deductions, withholdings or other
charges of any nature whatsoever imposed by any taxing authority, but excluding
(i) franchise taxes, (ii) any taxes (other than withholding taxes) that would
not be imposed but for a connection between the Agent or a Lender and the
jurisdiction imposing such taxes (other than a connection arising solely by
virtue of the activities of the Agent or such Lender pursuant to or in respect
of this Agreement or any other Loan Document), (iii) any taxes imposed on or
measured by any Lender's assets, net or gross income, net or gross receipts,
capital or net worth, excess profits, or conduct of business or branch profits
and (iv) any taxes arising after the Agreement Date solely as a result of or
attributable to a Lender changing its


                                     - 29 -
<PAGE>
designated Lending Office after the date such Lender becomes a party hereto
(such non-excluded items being collectively called "Taxes"). If any withholding
or deduction from any payment to be made by the Borrower hereunder is required
in respect of any Taxes pursuant to any Applicable Law, then the Borrower will:

            (i) pay directly to the relevant Governmental Authority the full
      amount required to be so withheld or deducted;

            (ii) promptly forward to the Agent an official receipt or other
      documentation satisfactory to the Agent evidencing such payment to such
      Governmental Authority; and

            (iii) pay to the Agent for its account or the account of the
      applicable Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts
      as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by the
      Agent or such Lender will equal the full amount that the Agent or such
      Lender would have received had no such withholding or deduction been
      required.

      (b) Tax Indemnification. If the Borrower fails to pay any Taxes when due
to the appropriate Governmental Authority or fails to remit to the Agent, for
its account or the account of the respective Lender, as the case may be, the
required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall
indemnify the Agent and the Lenders for any incremental Taxes, interest or
penalties that may become payable by the Agent or any Lender as a result of any
such failure. For purposes of this Section, a distribution hereunder by the
Agent or any Lender to or for the account of any Lender shall be deemed a
payment by the Borrower.

      (c) Tax Forms. Prior to the date that any Lender or Participant organized
under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States of America becomes a
party hereto, such Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent such
certificates, documents or other evidence, as required by the Internal Revenue
Code or Treasury Regulations issued pursuant thereto (including Internal Revenue
Service Forms W-8ECI and W-8BEN, as applicable, or appropriate successor forms),
properly completed, currently effective and duly executed by such Lender or
Participant establishing that payments to it hereunder and under the Notes are
(i) not subject to United States Federal backup withholding tax and (ii) not
subject to United States Federal withholding tax under the Code. Each such
Lender or Participant shall (x) deliver further copies of such forms or other
appropriate certifications on or before the date that any such forms expire or
become obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the
most recent form delivered to the Borrower and (y) obtain such extensions of the
time for filing, and renew such forms and certifications thereof, as may be
reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent. The Borrower shall not be
required to pay any amount pursuant to last sentence of subsection (a) above to
any Lender or Participant that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction
outside of the United States of America or the Agent, if it is organized under
the laws of a jurisdiction outside of the United States of America, if such
Lender, Participant or the Agent, as applicable, fails to comply with the
requirements of this subsection. If any such Lender or Participant fails to
deliver the above forms or other documentation, then the Agent may withhold from
such payment to such Lender such amounts as are required by the Internal Revenue
Code. If any Governmental Authority asserts that the Agent did not properly
withhold


                                     - 30 -
<PAGE>
or backup withhold, as the case may be, any tax or other amount from payments
made to or for the account of any Lender, such Lender shall indemnify the Agent
therefore, including all penalties and interest, any taxes imposed by any
jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Agent under this Section, and costs
and expenses (including all fees and disbursements of any law firm or other
external counsel and the allocated cost of internal legal services and all
disbursements of internal counsel) of the Agent. The obligation of the Lenders
under this Section shall survive the termination of the Commitments, repayment
of all Obligations and the resignation or replacement of the Agent.

                    ARTICLE IV. UNENCUMBERED POOL PROPERTIES

SECTION 4.1. INCLUSION OF UNENCUMBERED POOL PROPERTIES.

      (a) Existing Unencumbered Pool Properties. Subject to compliance with the
terms and conditions of Section 6.1.(a), as of the Effective Date the parties
hereto acknowledge and agree that the Properties listed on Schedule 4.1. are
Unencumbered Pool Properties.

      (b) Additional Unencumbered Pool Properties. After the Effective Date, an
Eligible Property shall be included as Unencumbered Pool Property upon delivery
to the Agent of (i) an Unencumbered Pool Certificate pursuant to Section 9.4.(a)
setting forth the information required to be contained therein and assuming that
such Eligible Property is included as an Unencumbered Pool Property, (ii) such
other information as the Agent or any Lender (through the Agent) may reasonably
request in connection with the evaluation of such Eligible Property. Subject to
the terms and conditions of this Agreement, upon the Agent's receipt of such
certificate and such other information, such Eligible Property shall be included
as an Unencumbered Pool Property. Any Property that does not satisfy the
requirements of an Eligible Property shall be included as an Unencumbered Pool
Property only upon the written approval of the Requisite Lenders. If a Property
that is to become an Unencumbered Pool Property is owned (or is being acquired)
by a Subsidiary of the Borrower that is not yet a party to the Guaranty, such
Property shall not become an Unencumbered Pool Property unless and until an
Accession Agreement executed by such Subsidiary, and all other items required to
be delivered under Section 8.14., have all been delivered to the Agent.

SECTION 4.2. TERMINATION OF DESIGNATION AS UNENCUMBERED POOL PROPERTY.

      Any Property previously included as an Unencumbered Pool Property but
which is not included in an Unencumbered Pool Certificate subsequently submitted
pursuant to this Agreement shall no longer be included as an Unencumbered Pool
Property (effective as of the date of receipt by the Agent of such Unencumbered
Pool Certificate) so long as no Default or Event of Default exists or would
exist immediately after such Property is no longer included as an Unencumbered
Pool Property.

                        ARTICLE V. YIELD PROTECTION, ETC.

SECTION 5.1. ADDITIONAL COSTS; CAPITAL ADEQUACY.

      (a) Additional Costs. The Borrower shall promptly pay to the Agent for the
account of a Lender from time to time such amounts as such Lender may reasonably
determine to be necessary to compensate such Lender for any costs incurred by
such Lender that it reasonably determines are attributable to its making or
maintaining of any LIBOR Loans or its obligation to make any LIBOR Loans
hereunder, any reduction in any amount receivable by such Lender under this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in respect of any of such Loans or
such obligation or the maintenance by such Lender of capital in respect of its
Loans or its Commitment (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts
receivable being herein called "Additional Costs"), resulting from any
Regulatory Change that: (i) changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable
to such Lender under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in
respect of any of such Loans or its Commitment (other than taxes imposed on or
measured by the overall net income of such Lender or of its Lending Office for
any of such Loans by the jurisdiction in which such Lender has its principal
office or such Lending Office); or (ii) imposes or modifies any reserve, special
deposit or similar requirements (including without limitation, Regulation D of
the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or other similar reserve
requirement applicable to any other category of liabilities or category of
extensions of credit or other assets by reference to which the interest rate on
LIBOR Loans is determined) relating to any extensions of credit or other assets
of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, or other credit extended by,
or any other acquisition of funds by such Lender (or its parent corporation), or
any commitment of such Lender (including, without limitation, the Commitment of
such Lender hereunder); or (iii) has or would have the effect of reducing the
rate of return on capital of such Lender to a level below that which such Lender
could have achieved but for such Regulatory Change (taking into consideration
such Lender's policies with respect to capital adequacy). Subject to Section
5.6., the Agent and each Lender agree to take such steps as the Borrower may
reasonably request to mitigate amounts payable under this Section, so long as
such steps are not disadvantageous to the Agent or such Lender, as the case may
be, as determined by the Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, in its sole
discretion.

      (b) Lender's Suspension of LIBOR Loans. Without limiting the effect of the
provisions of the immediately preceding subsection (a), if by reason of any
Regulatory Change, any Lender either (i) incurs Additional Costs based on or
measured by the excess above a specified level of the amount of a category of
deposits or other liabilities of such Lender that includes deposits by reference
to which the interest rate on LIBOR Loans is determined as provided in this
Agreement or a category of extensions of credit or other assets of such Lender
that includes LIBOR Loans or (ii) becomes subject to restrictions on the amount
of such a category of liabilities or assets that it may hold, then, if such
Lender so elects by notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent), the
obligation of such Lender to make or Continue, or to Convert any other Type of
Loans into, LIBOR Loans hereunder shall be suspended until such Regulatory
Change ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 5.5.
shall apply).

      (c) Notification and Determination of Additional Costs. Each of the Agent
and each Lender agrees to notify the Borrower of any event occurring after the
Agreement Date entitling


                                     - 32 -
<PAGE>
the Agent or such Lender to compensation under any of the preceding subsections
of this Section as promptly as practicable; provided, however, the failure of
the Agent or any Lender to give such notice shall not release the Borrower from
any of its obligations hereunder. The Agent and each Lender, as the case may be,
agrees to furnish to the Borrower (and in the case of a Lender to the Agent as
well) a certificate setting forth the basis and amount of each request by the
Agent or such Lender for compensation under this Section. Determinations by the
Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, of the effect of any Regulatory Change
shall be conclusive, provided that such determinations are made on a reasonable
basis and in good faith.

SECTION 5.2. SUSPENSION OF LIBOR LOANS.

      Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, on or prior to the
determination of LIBOR for any Interest Period:

            (a) the Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be
      conclusive) that quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits
      referred to in the definition of LIBOR are not being provided in the
      relevant amounts or for the relevant maturities for purposes of
      determining rates of interest for LIBOR Loans as provided herein or is
      otherwise unable to determine LIBOR, or

            (b) the Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be
      conclusive) that the relevant rates of interest referred to in the
      definition of LIBOR upon the basis of which the rate of interest for LIBOR
      Loans for such Interest Period is to be determined are not likely to
      adequately cover the cost to any Lender of making or maintaining LIBOR
      Loans for such Interest Period;

then the Agent shall give the Borrower and each Lender prompt notice thereof
and, so long as such condition remains in effect, the Lenders shall be under no
obligation to, and shall not, make additional LIBOR Loans, Continue LIBOR Loans
or Convert Loans into LIBOR Loans and the Borrower shall, on the last day of
each current Interest Period for each outstanding LIBOR Loan, either repay such
Loan or Convert such Loan into a Base Rate Loan.

SECTION 5.3. ILLEGALITY.

      Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall
reasonably determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding) that
it is unlawful for such Lender to honor its obligation to make or maintain LIBOR
Loans hereunder, then such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower thereof
(with a copy to the Agent) and such Lender's obligation to make or Continue, or
to Convert Loans of any other Type into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until
such time as such Lender may again make and maintain LIBOR Loans (in which case
the provisions of Section 5.5. shall be applicable).

SECTION 5.4. COMPENSATION.

      The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender, upon
the request of such Lender through the Agent, such amount or amounts as shall be
sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of such Lender) to compensate it for any
loss (other than lost profits), cost or expense


                                     - 33 -
<PAGE>
that such Lender reasonably determines is attributable to: (a) any payment or
prepayment (whether mandatory or optional) of a LIBOR Loan, or Conversion of a
LIBOR Loan, made by such Lender for any reason (including, without limitation,
acceleration) on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period for such
Loan; or (b) any failure by the Borrower for any reason (including, without
limitation, the failure of any of the applicable conditions precedent specified
in Article VI. to be satisfied) to borrow a LIBOR Loan from such Lender on the
date for such borrowing, or to Convert a Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan or
Continue a LIBOR Loan on the requested date of such Conversion or Continuation.
Not in limitation of the foregoing, such compensation shall include, without
limitation, an amount equal to the then present value of (i) the amount of
interest that would have accrued on such LIBOR Loan for the remainder of the
Interest Period at the rate applicable to such LIBOR Loan, less (ii) the amount
of interest that would accrue on the same LIBOR Loan for the same period if
LIBOR were set on the date on which such LIBOR Loan was repaid, prepaid or
Converted or the date on which the Borrower failed to borrow, Covert or Continue
such LIBOR Loan, as applicable, calculating present value by using as a discount
rate LIBOR quoted on such date. Upon the Borrower's request (made through the
Agent), any Lender requesting compensation under this Section shall provide the
Borrower with a statement setting forth the basis for requesting such
compensation and the method for determining the amount thereof. Any such
statement shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 5.5. TREATMENT OF AFFECTED LOANS.

      If the obligation of any Lender to make LIBOR Loans or to Continue, or to
Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section
5.1.(b), 5.2. or 5.3., then such Lender's LIBOR Loans shall be automatically
Converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day(s) of the then current Interest
Period(s) for LIBOR Loans (or, in the case of a Conversion required by Section
5.1.(b) or 5.3., on such earlier date as such Lender may specify to the Borrower
with a copy to the Agent) and, unless and until such Lender gives notice as
provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 5.1., 5.2. or 5.3.
that gave rise to such Conversion no longer exist:

            (a) to the extent that such Lender's LIBOR Loans have been so
      Converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise
      be applied to such Lender's LIBOR Loans shall be applied instead to its
      Base Rate Loans; and

            (b) all Loans that would otherwise be made or Continued by such
      Lender as LIBOR Loans shall be made or Continued instead as Base Rate
      Loans, and all Base Rate Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be
      Converted into LIBOR Loans shall remain as Base Rate Loans.

If such Lender gives notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) that the
circumstances specified in Section 5.1. or 5.3. that gave rise to the Conversion
of such Lender's LIBOR Loans pursuant to this Section no longer exist (which
such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a
time when LIBOR Loans made by other Lenders are outstanding, then such Lender's
Base Rate Loans shall be automatically Converted, on the first day(s) of the
next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding LIBOR Loans, to the
extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Loans held by the
Lenders holding LIBOR


                                     - 34 -
<PAGE>
Loans and by such Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, Types and
Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Commitments.

SECTION 5.6. CHANGE OF LENDING OFFICE.

      Each Lender agrees that it will use reasonable efforts (consistent with
its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate an
alternate Lending Office with respect to any of its Loans affected by the
matters or circumstances described in Sections 3.11., 5.1. or 5.3. to reduce the
liability of the Borrower or avoid the results provided thereunder, so long as
such designation is not disadvantageous to such Lender as determined by such
Lender in its sole discretion, except that such Lender shall have no obligation
to designate a Lending Office located in the United States of America.

SECTION 5.7. ASSUMPTIONS CONCERNING FUNDING OF LIBOR LOANS.

      Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Article V. shall
be made as though such Lender had actually funded LIBOR Loans through the
purchase of deposits in the relevant market bearing interest at the rate
applicable to such LIBOR Loans in an amount equal to the amount of the LIBOR
Loans and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period;
provided, however, that each Lender may fund each of its LIBOR Loans in any
manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumption shall be used only for
calculation of amounts payable under this Article V.

<PAGE>
      conditions on, or otherwise materially and adversely affect the ability of
      the Borrower or any other Loan Party to fulfill its obligations under the
      Loan Documents to which it is a party.

SECTION 6.2. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO ALL LOANS.

      The obligations of Lenders to make any Loans are subject to the further
conditions precedent that: (a) no Default or Event of Default shall exist as of
the date of the making of such Loan or would exist immediately after giving
effect thereto, and none of the conditions described in Section 2.10. would
exist after giving effect thereto; (b) the representations and warranties made
or deemed made by the Borrower and each other Loan Party in the Loan Documents
to which any of them is a party shall be true and correct on and as of the date
of the making of such Loan with the same force and effect as if made on and as
of such date except to the extent that such representations and warranties
expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such representations
and warranties shall have been true and accurate on and as of such earlier date)
and except for changes in factual circumstances specifically and expressly
permitted hereunder and (c) in the case of the borrowing of Term Loans, the
Agent shall have received a timely Notice of Borrowing. Each Credit Event shall
constitute a certification by the Borrower to the effect set forth in the
preceding sentence (both as of the date of the giving of notice relating to such
Credit Event and, unless the Borrower otherwise notifies the Agent prior to the
date of such Credit Event, as of the date of the occurrence of such Credit
Event). In addition, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented to the
Agent and the Lenders at the time such Loan is made that all conditions to the
making of such Loan contained in this Article VI. have been satisfied.

SECTION 6.3. CONDITIONS AS COVENANTS.

      If the Lenders permit the making of any Loans prior to the satisfaction of
all conditions precedent set forth in Sections 6.1. and 6.2., the Borrower shall
nevertheless cause such condition or conditions to be satisfied within 5
Business Days after the date of the making of such Loans. Unless set forth in
writing to the contrary, the making of its initial Loan by a Lender shall
constitute a confirmation by such Lender to the Agent and the other Lenders that
insofar as such Lender is concerned the Borrower has satisfied the conditions
precedent for initial Loans set forth in Sections 6.1. and 6.2.

                   ARTICLE VII. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

SECTION 7.1. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

      In order to induce the Agent and each Lender to enter into this Agreement
and to make Loans, each of the Parent and the Borrower represents and warrants
to the Agent and each Lender as follows:

other Subsidiaries is a corporation, partnership or other legal entity, duly
organized or formed, validly existing and in good standing under the
jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation, has the power and authority to
own or lease its respective properties and to carry on its respective business
as now being and hereafter proposed to be conducted and is duly qualified and is
in


                                     - 38 -
<PAGE>
good standing as a foreign corporation, partnership or other legal entity, and
authorized to do business, in each jurisdiction in which the character of its
properties or the nature of its business requires such qualification or
authorization and where the failure to be so qualified or authorized could
reasonably be expected to have, in each instance, a Material Adverse Effect.

      (b) Ownership Structure. Part I of Schedule 7.1.(b) is, as of the
Agreement Date, a complete and correct list of all Subsidiaries of the Parent
(including all Subsidiaries of the Borrower), setting forth for each such
Subsidiary, (a) the jurisdiction of organization of such Subsidiary, (b) each
Person holding ownership interests in such Subsidiary, (c) the nature of the
ownership interests held by each such Person and (d) the percentage of ownership
of such Subsidiary represented by such ownership interests. Except as disclosed
in such Schedule, as of the Agreement Date (i) each of the Parent and its
Subsidiaries owns, free and clear of all Liens, and has the unencumbered right
to vote, all outstanding ownership interests in each Person shown to be held by
it on such Schedule, (ii) all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of
each such Person organized as a corporation is validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and (iii) there are no outstanding subscriptions, options,
warrants, commitments, preemptive rights or agreements of any kind (including,
without limitation, any stockholders' or voting trust agreements) for the

into, any additional shares of capital stock of any class, or partnership or
other ownership interests of any type in, any such Person. Part II of Schedule
7.1.(b) correctly sets forth all Unconsolidated Affiliates of the Parent,

each such Person is, and all ownership interests in such Person held directly or

entity which each such Person is, and all equity interests in such Person held
directly or indirectly by the Borrower.

      (c) Authorization of Agreement, Notes, Loan Documents and Borrowings. Each
Loan Party has the right and power, and has taken all necessary action to
authorize it, to borrow and obtain other extensions of credit hereunder (in the
case of the Borrower) and to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement, the
Notes and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party in accordance with
their respective terms and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby
and thereby, as the case may be. This Agreement, the Notes and each of the other
Loan Documents to which any Loan Party is a party have been duly executed and
delivered by such Loan Party and each is a legal, valid and binding obligation
of such Loan Party enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with its
respective terms, except as the same may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
and other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and the
availability of equitable remedies for the enforcement of certain obligations
contained herein or therein may be limited by equitable principles generally.

      (d) Compliance of Agreement, Etc. with Laws. The execution, delivery and
performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which any Loan
Party is a party in accordance with their respective terms and the borrowings
and other extensions of credit hereunder do not and will not, by the passage of
time, the giving of notice, or both: (i) require any Governmental Approval or
violate any Applicable Law (including all Environmental Laws) relating to any
Loan Party; (ii) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute a default
under the


                                     - 39 -

organizational documents of any Loan Party, or any indenture, agreement or other
instrument to which any Loan Party is a party or by which it or any of its
respective properties may be bound; or (iii) result in or require the creation
or imposition of any Lien upon or with respect to any property now owned or
hereafter acquired by any Loan Party other than in favor of the Agent for the
benefit of the Lenders.

      (e) Compliance with Law; Governmental Approvals. Each Loan Party and each
other Subsidiary is in compliance with each Governmental Approval and all other
Applicable Laws relating to it except for noncompliances which, and Governmental
Approvals the failure to possess which, could not, individually or in the
aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Parties and the other Subsidiaries have performed and are in compliance with all
of the terms of such Indebtedness and all instruments and agreements relating
thereto, and no default or event of default, or event or condition which with
the giving of notice, the lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default or
event of default, exists with respect to any such Indebtedness. Part II of
Schedule 7.1.(g) is, as of the Agreement Date, a complete and correct listing of

default, exists with respect to any such Material Contract.

      (i) Litigation. Except as set forth on Schedule 7.1.(i), there are no
actions, suits or proceedings pending (nor, to the knowledge of any Loan Party,
are there any actions, suits or proceedings threatened, nor is there any basis
therefor) against or in any other way relating adversely to or affecting any
Loan Party, any other Subsidiary or any of their respective property in any
court or before any arbitrator of any kind or before or by any other
Governmental Authority which, if adversely determined, could reasonably be

                                     - 40 -

Adverse Effect, and there are no strikes, slow downs, work stoppages or walkouts

filed, and all federal, state and other taxes, assessments and other
governmental charges or levies upon each Loan Party and each other Subsidiary
and their respective properties, income, profits and assets which are due and
payable have been paid, except any such nonpayment or non-filing which is at the
time permitted under Section 8.6. As of the Agreement Date, none of the United

and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity and
cash flow for the fiscal years ended on such dates, with the opinion thereon of

its consolidated Subsidiaries for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2003, and
the related consolidated statements of operations and cash flow of the Parent
and its consolidated Subsidiaries for the two fiscal quarter period ended on
such date. Such balance sheets and statements (including in each case related
schedules and notes) are complete and correct in all material respects and
present fairly, in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the
periods involved, the consolidated financial position of the Borrower and its
consolidated Subsidiaries as at their respective dates and the results of
operations and the cash flow for such periods (subject, as to interim
statements, to changes resulting from normal year-end audit adjustments).
Neither the Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries has on the Agreement Date any
material contingent liabilities, liabilities, liabilities for taxes, unusual or
long-term commitments or unrealized or forward anticipated losses from any
unfavorable commitments, except as referred to or reflected or provided for in
said financial statements.

      (l) No Material Adverse Change. Since December 31, 2002, there has been no

Parent and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, are Solvent.

required under the minimum funding standards of ERISA and the Internal Revenue
Code with respect to each Plan and is in compliance in all material respects
with the presently applicable provisions of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code
with respect to each Plan. No member of the ERISA Group has (i) sought a waiver
of the minimum funding standard under Section 412 of the Internal Revenue Code
in respect of any Plan, (ii) failed to make any contribution or payment to any
Plan or Multiemployer Plan or in respect of any Benefit Arrangement which could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, or made any amendment
to any Plan or Benefit Arrangement, which has resulted or could result in the
imposition of a Lien or the posting of a bond or other security under ERISA or
the Internal Revenue Code or (iii) incurred


                                     - 41 -
<PAGE>
any liability under Title IV of ERISA other than a liability to the PBGC for
premiums under Section 4007 of ERISA.

      (n) Absence of Defaults. None of the Loan Parties or the other
Subsidiaries is in default under its articles of incorporation, bylaws,
partnership agreement or other similar organizational documents, and no event
has occurred, which has not been remedied, cured or waived: (i) which
constitutes a Default or an Event of Default; or (ii) which constitutes, or
which with the passage of time, the giving of notice, or both, would constitute,
a default or event of default by any Loan Party or any other Subsidiary under
any agreement (other than this Agreement) or judgment, decree or order to which
any such Person is a party or by which any such Person or any of its respective
properties may be bound where such default or event of default could,
individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

      (o) Environmental Laws. In the ordinary course of business and from time
to time each of the Loan Parties and the other Subsidiaries conducts reviews of
the effect of Environmental Laws on its respective business, operations and
properties, including without limitation, its respective Properties, in the
course of which such Loan Party or such other Subsidiary identifies and
evaluates associated liabilities and costs (including, without limitation,
determining whether any capital or operating expenditures are required for
clean-up or closure of properties presently or previously owned, determining
whether any capital or operating expenditures are required to achieve or
maintain compliance in all material respects with Environmental Laws or required
as a condition of any Governmental Approval, any contract, or any related
constraints on operating activities, determining whether any costs or
liabilities exist in connection with off-site disposal of wastes or Hazardous
Materials, and determining whether any actual or potential liabilities to third
parties, including employees, and any related costs and expenses exist). Each of
the Loan Parties and the other Subsidiaries is in compliance with all applicable
Environmental Laws and has obtained all Governmental Approvals which are
required under Environmental Laws and is in compliance with all terms and
conditions of such Governmental Approvals, where with respect to each of the
foregoing the failure to obtain or to comply with could be reasonably expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except for any of the following matters that
could not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, no Loan
Party is aware of, nor has it received notice of, any past or present events,
conditions, circumstances, activities, practices, incidents, actions, or plans
which, with respect to any Loan Party or any other Subsidiary, may unreasonably
interfere with or prevent compliance or continued compliance with Environmental
Laws, or may give rise to any common-law or legal liability, based on or related
to the manufacture, processing, distribution, use, treatment, storage, disposal,
transport, or handling or the emission, discharge, release or threatened release
into the environment, of any Hazardous Material; and there is no civil,
criminal, or administrative action, suit, demand, claim, hearing, notice, or
demand letter, notice of violation, investigation, or proceeding pending or, to
the Parent's knowledge after due inquiry, threatened, against any Loan Party or
any other Subsidiary relating in any way to Environmental Laws which, if
determined adversely to such Loan Party or such other Subsidiary, could be
reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

      (p) Investment Company; Public Utility Holding Company. No Loan Party, nor
any other Subsidiary, is (i) an "investment company" or a company "controlled"
by an "investment


                                     - 42 -
<PAGE>
company" within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,
(ii) a "holding company" or a "subsidiary company" of a "holding company", or an
"affiliate" of a "holding company" or of a "subsidiary company" of a "holding
company", within the meaning of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935,
as amended, or (iii) subject to any other Applicable Law which purports to
regulate or restrict its ability to borrow money or obtain other extensions of
credit or to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or to
perform its obligations under any Loan Document to which it is a party.

      (q) Margin Stock. No Loan Party nor any other Subsidiary is engaged
principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending
credit for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate, of buying or
carrying "margin stock" within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

      (r) Affiliate Transactions. Except as permitted by Section 10.10., no Loan
Party nor any other Subsidiary is a party to or bound by any agreement or
arrangement (whether oral or written) with any Affiliate.

      (s) Intellectual Property. Each of the Loan Parties and each other
Subsidiary owns or has the right to use, under valid license agreements or
otherwise, all patents, licenses, franchises, trademarks, trademark rights,
trade names, trade name rights, trade secrets and copyrights (collectively,
"Intellectual Property") necessary to the conduct of its businesses, without
known conflict with any patent, license, franchise, trademark, trade secret,
trade name, copyright, or other proprietary right of any other Person. All such
Intellectual Property is fully protected and/or duly and properly registered,
filed or issued in the appropriate office and jurisdictions for such
registrations, filing or issuances. No material claim has been asserted by any
Person with respect to the use of any such Intellectual Property, or challenging
or questioning the validity or effectiveness of any such Intellectual Property.

      (t) Business. As of the Agreement Date, the Loan Parties and the other
Subsidiaries are engaged in the business of owning, developing and managing
office and industrial properties.

      (u) Broker's Fees. No broker's or finder's fee, commission or similar
compensation will be payable with respect to the transactions contemplated
hereby. No other similar fees or commissions will be payable by any Loan Party
for any other services rendered to any Loan Party or any other Subsidiaries
ancillary to the transactions contemplated hereby.

      (v) Accuracy and Completeness of Information. All written information,
reports and other papers and data furnished to the Agent or any Lender by, on
behalf of, or at the direction of any Loan Party or any other Subsidiary were,
at the time the same were so furnished, complete and correct in all material
respects, to the extent necessary to give the recipient a true and accurate
knowledge of the subject matter, or, in the case of financial statements,
present fairly, in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the
periods involved, the financial position of the Persons involved as at the date
thereof and the results of operations for such periods. No fact is known to any
Loan Party which has had, or may in the future have (so far as any Loan Party
can reasonably foresee), a Material Adverse Effect which has not been set forth


                                     - 43 -
<PAGE>
in the financial statements referred to in Section 7.1.(k) or in such
information, reports or other papers or data or otherwise disclosed in writing
to the Agent and the Lenders prior to the Effective Date. No document furnished
or written statement made to the Agent or any Lender in connection with the
negotiation, preparation or execution, or pursuant to, of this Agreement or any
of the other Loan Documents contains or will contain any untrue statement of a
fact material to the creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any other Subsidiary
or omits or will omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the
statements contained therein not misleading.

      (w) Not Plan Assets; No Prohibited Transactions. None of the assets of any
Loan Party or any other Subsidiary constitutes "plan assets" within the meaning
of ERISA, the Internal Revenue Code and the respective regulations promulgated
thereunder, of any Plan. The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan
Documents by the Loan Parties, and the borrowing, other credit extensions and
repayment of amounts thereunder, do not and will not constitute "prohibited
transactions" under ERISA or the Internal Revenue Code.

      (x) Unencumbered Pool Properties. Each of the Unencumbered Pool Properties
qualifies as an Eligible Property.

      (y) Tax Shelter Regulations. Neither the Borrower, the Parent, any other
Guarantor, any non-borrower trustor, nor any Subsidiary of any of the foregoing
intends to treat the Loans or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents as being a "reportable transaction" (within the
meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4). If the Borrower, or any other
Loan Party determines to take any action inconsistent with such intention, the
Borrower will promptly notify the Agent thereof. If the Borrower so notifies the
Agent, the Borrower acknowledges that the Agent and the Lenders may treat the
Loans as part of a transaction that is subject to Treasury Regulation Section
301.6112-1, and the Agent and each Lender, will maintain the lists and other
records, including the identity of the applicable party to the Loans as required
by such Treasury Regulation.

SECTION 7.2. SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES, ETC.

      All statements contained in any certificate, financial statement or other
instrument delivered by or on behalf of any Loan Party or any other Subsidiary
to the Agent or any Lender pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement or
any of the other Loan Documents (including, but not limited to, any such
statement made in or in connection with any amendment thereto or any statement
contained in any certificate, financial statement or other instrument delivered
by or on behalf of any Loan Party prior to the Agreement Date and delivered to
the Agent or any Lender in connection with closing the transactions contemplated
hereby) shall constitute representations and warranties made by the Parent and
the Borrower under this Agreement. All representations and warranties made under
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to be made at and as
of the Agreement Date, the Effective Date and at and as of the date of the
occurrence of each Credit Event, except to the extent that such representations
and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such
representations and warranties shall have been true and accurate on and as of
such earlier date) and except for changes in factual circumstances specifically

effectiveness of this Agreement, the execution and delivery of the Loan
Documents and the making of the Loans.

contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings which operate to suspend the

SECTION 8.14. GUARANTORS; RELEASE OF GUARANTORS.

      (a) Generally. The Parent shall cause any Subsidiary and any

      Lender through the Agent, may reasonably request.

      (d) Release of Guarantor. The Borrower may request in writing that the
Agent release, and upon receipt of such request the Agent shall release, a

            (v) Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates, such that the
      aggregate value of such Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates, exceeds
      20% of Gross Asset Value. For purposes of this clause (iv), the "value" of
      any such Investment in an Unconsolidated Affiliate shall equal (1) with
      respect to any of such Unconsolidated Affiliate's Properties under
      construction, the Parent's Ownership Share of the book value of
      construction in process for such Property as of the date of determination
      and (2) with respect to any of such Unconsolidated Affiliate's Properties
      which have been completed, the Parent's Ownership Share of Capitalized

      defined in the NOCHA Letter Agreement), so long as paragraph 3 of the
      NOCHA Letter Agreement is not then applicable, the book value of such
      interest determined in accordance with GAAP shall be the "value" of such
      Investment for purposes of this clause (v); and

            (vi) the aggregate amount of the Total Budgeted Costs for
      Development Properties or Redevelopment Properties in which the Parent
      either has a direct or indirect ownership interest shall not exceed 15% of
      Gross Asset Value. If a Development Property is owned by an Unconsolidated
      Affiliate of the Parent, or any other Subsidiary,

                                      -55-

      then the greater of (1) the product of (A) the Parent's or such
      Subsidiary's Ownership Share in such Unconsolidated Affiliate and (B) the
      amount of the Total Budgeted Costs for such Development Property or (2)
      the recourse obligations of the Parent or such Subsidiary relating to the
      Indebtedness of such Unconsolidated Affiliate, shall be used in
      calculating such investment limitation;

provided, further, that, in addition to the foregoing limitations, the aggregate
value of the Investments subject to the limitations in the preceding clauses (i)
through (vi) shall not exceed 30% of Gross Asset Value. If an Investment is
owned by an Unconsolidated Affiliate of the Parent, the Borrower, or any other
Subsidiary, then the product of (A) the Parent's, the Borrower's, or such other

of such Investment, shall be used in calculating such investment limitation.

      (j) Aggregate Occupancy Rates. The Parent shall not permit the weighted
average aggregate Occupancy Rate (weighted on the basis of aggregate square
footage) of all Unencumbered Pool Properties to be less than 90% at any time.

SECTION 10.2. ASSET VALUE OF NON-GUARANTOR ENTITIES.

other Subsidiary to, incur, assume or otherwise become obligated in respect of
any Indebtedness after the Agreement Date if (a) immediately before or
immediately after incurring, assuming or otherwise becoming obligated in respect
of such Indebtedness a Default or Event of Default resulting from a violation of
any of the covenants contained in Section 10.1. exists or would exist or (b)
immediately after incurring, assuming or otherwise becoming obligated in respect
of such Indebtedness, a Default or Event of Default resulting from such
incurrence, assumption or obligation in respect of such Indebtedness would
exist, including without limitation, a Default or Event of Default resulting
from a violation of any of the covenants contained in Section 10.1. determined
after giving pro forma effect thereto.

ownership interest of the Parent in any Subsidiary owning any Unencumbered Pool
Property, other than Permitted Liens or (b) permit any Unencumbered Pool
Property, or any direct or indirect ownership interest of the Parent in any

Further, no Loan Party, nor any Subsidiary, shall enter into any sale-leaseback
transactions or other transaction by which such Person shall remain liable as
lessee (or the economic equivalent thereof) of any real or personal property

all other such judgments or orders entered against the Loan Parties, $5,000,000
or (B) such judgment or order could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

      (i) Attachment. A warrant, writ of attachment, execution or similar
process shall be issued against any property of any Loan Party, which exceeds,
individually or together with all other such warrants, writs, executions and
processes, $5,000,000 in amount and such warrant, writ, execution or process
shall not be paid, discharged, vacated, stayed or bonded for a period of 30
days; provided, however, that if a bond has been issued in favor of the claimant
or other Person obtaining such warrant, writ, execution or process, the issuer
of such bond shall execute a waiver or subordination agreement in form and
substance satisfactory to the Agent pursuant to which the issuer of such bond
subordinates its right of reimbursement, contribution or subrogation to the
Obligations and waives or subordinates any Lien it may have on the assets of any
Loan Party.

      (j) ERISA. Any member of the ERISA Group shall fail to pay when due an
amount or amounts aggregating in excess of $2,000,000 which it shall have become
liable to pay under Title IV of ERISA; or notice of intent to terminate a
Material Plan shall be filed under Title IV of ERISA by any member of the ERISA
Group, any plan administrator or any combination of the foregoing; or the PBGC
shall institute proceedings under Title IV of ERISA to terminate, to impose
liability (other than for premiums under Section 4007 of ERISA) in respect of,
or to cause a trustee to be appointed to administer, any Material Plan; or a
condition shall exist by reason of which the PBGC would be entitled to obtain a
decree adjudicating that any Material Plan must be terminated; or there shall
occur a complete or partial withdrawal from, or a default, within the meaning of
Section 4219(c)(5) of ERISA, with respect to, one or more Multiemployer Plans
which could cause one or more members of the ERISA Group to incur a current
payment obligation in excess of $2,000,000.

      (k) Loan Documents. An Event of Default (as defined therein) shall occur
under any of the other Loan Documents.

      (l) Change of Control/Change in Management.

            (i) Any "person" or "group" (as such terms are used in Sections
      13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
      "Exchange Act")), is or becomes the "beneficial owner" (as defined in
      Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act, except that a Person will be
      deemed to have "beneficial ownership" of all securities that such Person
      has the right to acquire, whether such right is exercisable immediately or
      only after the passage of time), directly or indirectly, of more than 50%
      of the total voting power of the then outstanding voting stock of the
      Borrower or the Parent;

            (ii) During any period of 24 consecutive months ending after the
      Agreement Date, individuals who at the beginning of any such 24-month
      period constituted the Board of Trustees of the Parent (together with any
      new trustees whose election by such Board or whose nomination for election
      by the shareholders of the Parent was approved

                                      -61-
<PAGE>
      by a vote of a majority of the trustees then still in office who were
      either trustees at the beginning of such period or whose election or
      nomination for election was previously so approved) cease for any reason
      to constitute a majority of the Board of Trustees of the Borrower then in
      office;

            (iii) If more than two of Jeffrey Kelter, John Begier, Robert Savage
      and Timothy McKenna cease for any reason to be principally involved in the
      senior management of the Parent, and the Parent shall have failed to
      replace the resulting vacancies in senior management with individuals
      reasonably acceptable to the Requisite Lenders within a period of 90 days;
      or

            (iv) The Parent or any Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Parent shall
      cease to be the sole general partner of the Borrower.

      (m) Damage; Strike; Casualty. Any material damage to, or loss or
destruction of, any Unencumbered Pool Property, whether or not insured, or any
strike, lockout, labor dispute, embargo, condemnation, act of God or public
enemy, or other casualty which causes, for more than 30 consecutive days beyond
the coverage period of any applicable business interruption insurance, the
cessation or substantial curtailment of revenue producing activities of the
Parent or its Subsidiaries taken as a whole and only if any such event or
circumstance could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

      (k) Existing Revolving Credit Agreement. An Event of Default (as defined
therein) shall occur under the Existing Revolving Credit Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, (i) the failure of any
Loan Party to perform or observe any term, covenant, condition or agreement
contained any New York Collateral Document to which it is a party shall not
constitute a Default or Event of Default and (ii) the occurrence of an Event of
Default (as defined in any New York Collateral Document) shall not constitute a
Default or Event of Default; provided, however, the preceding shall in no way
limit or impair the rights of the Agent and the Lenders with respect to any
Default or Event of Default resulting from the failure of any Loan Party to
perform or observe the same or any similar term, covenant, condition or
agreement contained in any other Loan Document.

SECTION 11.2.  REMEDIES UPON EVENT OF DEFAULT.

      Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default the following provisions shall
apply:

      (a) Acceleration; Termination of Facilities.

            (i) Automatic. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified
      in Section 11.1.(e) or 11.1.(f), (1)(A) the principal of, and all accrued
      interest on, the Loans and the Notes at the time outstanding and (B) all
      of the other Obligations of the Borrower, including, but not limited to,
      the other amounts owed to the Lenders and the Agent under this Agreement,
      the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents shall become immediately and
      automatically due and payable by the Borrower without presentment, demand,
      protest, or other notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by
      the

                                      -62-
<PAGE>
      Borrower, and (2) the Commitments and the obligation of the Lenders to
      make Loans hereunder shall all immediately and automatically terminate.

            (ii) Optional. If any other Event of Default shall exist, the Agent
      may, and at the direction of the Requisite Lenders shall: (1) declare (A)
      the principal of, and accrued interest on, the Loans and the Notes at the
      time outstanding and (B) all of the other Obligations, including, but not
      limited to, the other amounts owed to the Lenders and the Agent under this
      Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents to be forthwith
      due and payable, whereupon the same shall immediately become due and
      payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind,
      all of which are expressly waived by the Borrower, and (2) terminate the
      Commitments and the obligation of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder.

      (b) Loan Documents. The Requisite Lenders may direct the Agent to, and the
Agent if so directed shall, exercise any and all of its rights under any and all
of the other Loan Documents.

      (c) Applicable Law. The Requisite Lenders may direct the Agent to, and the
Agent if so directed shall, exercise all other rights and remedies it may have
under any Applicable Law.

      (d) Appointment of Receiver. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law,
the Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to the appointment of a receiver for
the assets and properties of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, without notice
of any kind whatsoever and without regard to the adequacy of any security for
the Obligations or the solvency of any party bound for its payment, to take
possession of all or any portion of the business operations of the Borrower and
its Subsidiaries and to exercise such power as the court shall confer upon such
receiver.

SECTION 11.3. REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT.

      Upon the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 11.1.(e) or
11.1.(f), the Commitments shall immediately and automatically terminate.

SECTION 11.4.  MARSHALING; PAYMENTS SET ASIDE.

      Neither the Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal
any assets in favor of any Loan Party or any other party or against or in
payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that any Loan Party
makes a payment or payments to the Agent and/or any Lender, or the Agent and/or
any Lender enforce their 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, state or federal law, common law or
equitable cause, then to the extent of such recovery, the Obligations or part
thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies
therefor, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such
payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

                                      -63-
<PAGE>
SECTION 11.5. ALLOCATION OF PROCEEDS.

      If an Event of Default exists and maturity of any of the Obligations has
been accelerated, all payments received by the Agent under any of the Loan
Documents, in respect of any principal of or interest on the Obligations or any
other amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder or thereunder, shall be applied
in the following order and priority:

            (a) amounts due to the Agent and the Lenders in respect of Fees and
      expenses due under Section 13.2.;

            (b) payments of interest on all Loans, to be applied for the ratable
      benefit of the Lenders, in such order as the Lenders may determine in
      their sole discretion;

            (c) payments of principal of all Loans, to be applied for the
      ratable benefit of the Lenders, in such order as the Lenders may determine
      in their sole discretion;

            (d) amounts due the Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Sections 12.7.
      and 13.10.;

            (e) payments of all amounts due under any of the Loan Documents, if
      any, to be applied for the ratable benefit of the Lenders; and

            (f) any amount remaining after application as provided above, shall
      be paid to the Borrower or whomever else may be legally entitled thereto.

SECTION 11.6. PERFORMANCE BY AGENT.

      If the Borrower shall fail to perform any covenant, duty or agreement
contained in any of the Loan Documents, the Agent may perform or attempt to
perform such covenant, duty or agreement on behalf of the Borrower after the
expiration of any cure or grace periods set forth herein. In such event, the
Borrower shall, at the request of the Agent, promptly pay any amount reasonably
expended by the Agent in such performance or attempted performance to the Agent,
together with interest thereon at the applicable Post-Default Rate from the date
of such expenditure until paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Agent
nor any Lender shall have any liability or responsibility whatsoever for the
performance of any obligation of the Borrower under this Agreement or any other
Loan Document.

SECTION 11.7. RIGHTS CUMULATIVE.

      The rights and remedies of the Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement
and each of the other Loan Documents shall be cumulative and not exclusive of
any rights or remedies which any of them may otherwise have under Applicable
Law. In exercising their respective rights and remedies the Agent and the
Lenders may be selective and no failure or delay by the Agent or any of the
Lenders in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of it, nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any power or right preclude its other or further
exercise or the exercise of any other power or right.

                                      -64-
<PAGE>
SECTION 11.8. RESCISSION OF ACCELERATION BY REQUISITE LENDERS.

      If at any time after acceleration of the maturity of the Loans and the
other Obligations, the Borrower shall pay all arrears of interest and all
payments on account of principal of the Obligations which shall have become due
otherwise than by acceleration (with interest on principal and, to the extent
permitted by Applicable Law, on overdue interest, at the rates specified in this
Agreement) and all Events of Default and Defaults (other than nonpayment of
principal of and accrued interest on the Obligations due and payable solely by
virtue of acceleration) shall become remedied or waived to the satisfaction of
the Requisite Lenders, then by written notice to the Borrower, the Requisite
Lenders may elect, in the sole discretion of such Requisite Lenders, to rescind
and annul the acceleration and its consequences. The provisions of the preceding
sentence are intended merely to bind all of the Lenders to a decision which may
be made at the election of the Requisite Lenders, and are not intended to
benefit the Borrower and do not give the Borrower the right to require the
Lenders to rescind or annul any acceleration hereunder, even if the conditions
set forth herein are satisfied.

                             ARTICLE XII. THE AGENT

SECTION 12.1. APPOINTMENT AND AUTHORIZATION.

      Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Agent to take
such action as contractual representative on such Lender's behalf and to
exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are
specifically delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together
with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Not in limitation of the
foregoing, each Lender authorizes and directs the Agent to enter into the Loan
Documents for the benefit of the Lenders. Each Lender hereby agrees that, except
as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Requisite Lenders in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Loan Documents, and the
exercise by the Requisite Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein,
together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be
authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders. Nothing herein shall be
construed to deem the Agent a trustee or fiduciary for any Lender or to impose
on the Agent duties or obligations other than those expressly provided for
herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the terms
"Agent", "agent" and similar terms in the Loan Documents with reference to the
Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express)
obligations arising under agency doctrine of any Applicable Law. Instead, use of
such terms is merely a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or
reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting
parties. The Agent will furnish to any Lender, upon the request of such Lender,
a copy (or, where appropriate, an original) of any document, instrument,
agreement, certificate or notice furnished to the Agent by the Borrower, any
Loan Party or any other Affiliate of the Borrower, pursuant to this Agreement or
any other Loan Document not already delivered to such Lender pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement or any such other Loan Document. As to any matters not
expressly provided for by the Loan Documents (including, without limitation,
enforcement or collection of any of the Obligations), the Agent shall not be
required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to
act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or
refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Requisite Lenders (or all
of the Lenders if explicitly required under any other provision of this
Agreement), and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders

                                      -65-
<PAGE>
and all holders of any of the Obligations; provided, however, that,
notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Agent shall not
be required to take any action which exposes the Agent to personal liability or
which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or Applicable
Law. Not in limitation of the foregoing, the Agent shall not exercise any right
or remedy it or the Lenders may have under any Loan Document upon the occurrence
of a Default or an Event of Default unless the Requisite Lenders have directed
the Agent otherwise. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any
right of action whatsoever against the Agent as a result of the Agent acting or
refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents
in accordance with the instructions of the Requisite Lenders, or where
applicable, all the Lenders.

SECTION 12.2.  AGENT'S RELIANCE, ETC.

      Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan
Documents, neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents,
employees or counsel shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken
by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct in
connection with its duties expressly set forth herein or therein. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent: (a) may treat the payee of
any Note as the holder thereof until the Agent receives written notice of the
assignment or transfer thereof signed by such payee and in form satisfactory to
the Agent and (b) may consult with legal counsel (including its own counsel or
counsel for the Borrower or any other Loan Party), independent public
accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any
action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the
advice of such counsel, accountants or experts. Neither the Agent nor any of its
directors, officers, agents, employees or counsel (a) makes any warranty or
representation to any Lender or any other Person and shall be responsible to any
Lender or any other Person for any statement, warranty or representation made or
deemed made by the Borrower, the Parent, any other Loan Party or any other
Person in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (b)
shall have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or
observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any
other Loan Document or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent under this
Agreement or any Loan Document on the part of the Borrower or other Persons or
inspect the property, books or records of the Borrower or any other Person; (c)
shall be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity,
enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other
Loan Document, any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto or
any collateral covered thereby or the perfection or priority of any Lien in
favor of the Agent on behalf of the Lenders in any such Collateral; (d) shall
have any liability in respect of any recitals, statements, certifications,
representations or warranties contained in any of the Loan Documents or any
other document, instrument, agreement, certificate or statement delivered in
connection therewith; and (e) shall incur any liability under or in respect of
this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent,
certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telephone, telecopy
or electronic mail) believed by it to be genuine and signed, sent or given by
the proper party or parties. The Agent may execute any of its duties under the
Loan Documents by or through agents, employees or attorneys in fact and shall
not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney in
fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.

                                      -66-
<PAGE>
SECTION 12.3. NOTICE OF DEFAULTS.

      The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the
occurrence of a Default or Event of Default unless the Agent has received notice
from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing with
reasonable specificity such Default or Event of Default and stating that such
notice is a "notice of default." If any Lender (excluding the Lender which is
also serving as the Agent) becomes aware of any Default or Event of Default, it
shall promptly send to the Agent such a "notice of default". Further, if the
Agent receives such a "notice of default" from any Lender, the Agent shall give
prompt notice thereof to the other Lenders.

SECTION 12.4. WELLS FARGO AS LENDER.

      Wells Fargo, as a "Lender", shall have the same rights and powers under
this Agreement and any other Loan Document as any other Lender and may exercise
the same as though it were not the Agent; and the term "Lender" or "Lenders"
shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include Wells Fargo in each case in
its individual capacity. Wells Fargo and its affiliates may each accept deposits
from, maintain deposits or credit balances for, invest in, lend money to, act as
trustee under indentures of, serve as financial advisor to, and generally engage
in any kind of business with the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other
affiliate thereof as if it were any other bank and without any duty to account
therefor to the other Lenders. Further, the Agent and any affiliate may accept
fees and other consideration from the Borrower for services in connection with
this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to the other
Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Wells Fargo
or its affiliates may receive information regarding the Borrower, the Parent,
other Loan Parties, other Subsidiaries and other Affiliates (including
information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such
Person) and acknowledge that the Agent shall be under no obligation to provide
such information to them.

SECTION 12.5. APPROVALS OF LENDERS.

      All communications from the Agent to any Lender requesting such Lender's
determination, consent, approval or disapproval (a) shall be given in the form
of a written notice to such Lender, (b) shall be accompanied by a description of
the matter or issue as to which such determination, approval, consent or
disapproval is requested, or shall advise such Lender where information, if any,
regarding such matter or issue may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the
matter or issue to be resolved, (c) shall include, if reasonably requested by
such Lender and to the extent not previously provided to such Lender, written
materials and a summary of all oral information provided to the Agent by the
Borrower in respect of the matter or issue to be resolved, and (d) shall include
the Agent's recommended course of action or determination in respect thereof.
Each Lender shall reply promptly, but in any event within 10 Business Days (or
such lesser or greater period as may be specifically required under the express
terms of the Loan Documents) of receipt of such communication. Except as
otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, unless a Lender shall give
written notice to the Agent that it specifically objects to the recommendation
or determination of the Agent within the applicable time period for reply,

                                      -67-
<PAGE>
such Lender shall be deemed to have conclusively approved of or consented to
such recommendation or determination.

SECTION 12.6. LENDER CREDIT DECISION, ETC.

      Each Lender expressly acknowledges and agrees that neither the Agent nor
any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, counsel, attorneys-in-fact or
other affiliates has made any representations or warranties as to the financial
condition, operations, creditworthiness, solvency or other information
concerning the business or affairs of the Borrower, any other Loan Party, any
Subsidiary or any other Person to such Lender and that no act by the Agent
hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower, the
Parent, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate, shall be
deemed to constitute any such representation or warranty by the Agent to any
Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance
upon the Agent, any other Lender or counsel to the Agent, or any of their
respective officers, directors, employees, agents or counsel, and based on the
financial statements of the Borrower, the Parent, the other Loan Parties, the
other Subsidiaries and other Affiliates, and inquiries of such Persons, its
independent due diligence of the business and affairs of the Borrower, the
Parent, the other Loan Parties, the other Subsidiaries and other Persons, its
review of the Loan Documents, the legal opinions required to be delivered to it
hereunder, the advice of its own counsel and such other documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit and legal analysis
and decision to enter into this Agreement and the transaction contemplated
hereby. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without
reliance upon the Agent, any other Lender or counsel to the Agent or any of
their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, and based on such
review, advice, documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the
time, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under
the Loan Documents. The Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as
to the performance or observance by the Borrower, the Parent or any other Loan
Party of the Loan Documents or any other document referred to or provided for
therein or to inspect the properties or books of, or make any other
investigation of, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary.
Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly
required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent under this Agreement or any
of the other Loan Documents, the Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to
provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business,
operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the
Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Affiliate thereof which may come
into possession of the Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees,
agents, attorneys-in-fact or other Affiliates. Each Lender acknowledges that the
Agent's legal counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement is only acting as counsel to the Agent and is not acting as counsel to
such Lender.

SECTION 12.7. INDEMNIFICATION OF AGENT.

      Regardless of whether the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents are consummated, each Lender agrees to indemnify the
Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the
obligation of the Borrower to do so) pro rata in accordance with such Lender's
respective Credit Percentage, from and against any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time
be imposed on, incurred

                                      -68-
<PAGE>
by, or asserted against the Agent (in its capacity as Agent but not as a
"Lender") in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents, any
transaction contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the
Agent under the Loan Documents (collectively, "Indemnifiable Amounts");
provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such
Indemnifiable Amounts to the extent resulting from the Agent's gross negligence
or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a
final, non-appealable judgment; provided, however, that no action take in
accordance with the directions of the Requisite Lenders shall be deemed to
constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to
reimburse the Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without
limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) promptly upon demand for its
ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees and
expenses of the counsel to the Agent) incurred by the Agent in connection with
the preparation, negotiation, execution, administration, or enforcement (whether
through negotiations, legal proceedings, or otherwise) of, or legal advice with
respect to the rights or responsibilities of the parties under, the Loan
Documents, any suit or action brought by the Agent to enforce the terms of the
Loan Documents and/or collect any Obligations, any "lender liability" suit or
claim brought against the Agent and/or the Lenders, and any claim or suit
brought against the Agent and/or the Lenders arising under any Environmental
Laws. Such out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) shall be advanced by
the Lenders on the request of the Agent notwithstanding any claim or assertion
that the Agent is not entitled to indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an
undertaking by the Agent that the Agent will reimburse the Lenders if it is
actually and finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the
Agent is not so entitled to indemnification. The agreements in this Section
shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder
or under the other Loan Documents and the termination of this Agreement. If the
Borrower shall reimburse the Agent for any Indemnifiable Amount following
payment by any Lender to the Agent in respect of such Indemnifiable Amount
pursuant to this Section, the Agent shall share such reimbursement on a ratable
basis with each Lender making any such payment.

SECTION 12.8. SUCCESSOR AGENT.

      The Agent may resign at any time as Agent under the Loan Documents by
giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such
resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor
Agent which appointment shall, provided no Default or Event of Default exists,
be subject to the Borrower's approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed (except that the Borrower shall, in all events, be deemed to
have approved each Lender and any of its affiliates as a successor Agent). If no
successor Agent shall have been so appointed in accordance with the immediately
preceding sentence, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days
after the current Agent's giving of notice of resignation, then the current
Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a
Lender, if any Lender shall be willing to serve, and otherwise shall be an
Eligible Assignee. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by
a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become
vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the current Agent,
and the current Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under
the Loan Documents. After any Agent's resignation hereunder as Agent, the
provisions of this Article XII. shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any
actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under the Loan

                                      -69-
<PAGE>
Documents. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Agent
may assign its rights and duties under the Loan Documents to any of its
affiliates by giving the Borrower and each Lender prior written notice.

SECTION 13.5. LITIGATION; JURISDICTION; OTHER MATTERS; WAIVERS.

      (a) EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY
BETWEEN OR AMONG THE BORROWER, THE AGENT OR ANY OF THE LENDERS WOULD BE BASED ON
DIFFICULT AND COMPLEX ISSUES OF LAW AND FACT AND WOULD RESULT IN DELAY AND
EXPENSE TO THE PARTIES. ACCORDINGLY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW,
EACH OF THE LENDERS, THE AGENT AND THE BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A
TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND OR NATURE IN ANY COURT OR
TRIBUNAL IN WHICH AN ACTION MAY BE COMMENCED BY OR AGAINST ANY PARTY HERETO
ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES, OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR BY
REASON OF ANY OTHER SUIT, CAUSE OF ACTION OR DISPUTE WHATSOEVER BETWEEN OR AMONG
THE BORROWER, THE AGENT OR ANY OF THE LENDERS OF ANY KIND OR NATURE.

      (b) EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE AGENT AND EACH LENDER HEREBY AGREES THAT
THE FEDERAL DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK OR, AT THE
OPTION OF THE AGENT, ANY STATE COURT LOCATED IN NEW YORK, NEW YORK, SHALL HAVE
JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN OR AMONG THE
BORROWER, THE AGENT OR ANY OF THE LENDERS, PERTAINING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY TO
THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOANS AND THE NOTES OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR TO ANY
MATTER ARISING HEREFROM OR THEREFROM. EACH OF THE BORROWER AND EACH OF THE
LENDERS EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY
ACTION OR PROCEEDING COMMENCED IN SUCH COURTS. THE BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES
PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS AND COMPLAINT, OR OTHER PROCESS OR PAPERS ISSUED
THEREIN, AND AGREES THAT SERVICE OF SUCH SUMMONS AND COMPLAINT, OR OTHER PROCESS
OR PAPERS MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO THE BORROWER
AT ITS ADDRESS FOR NOTICES PROVIDED FOR HEREIN. SHOULD THE BORROWER FAIL TO
APPEAR OR ANSWER ANY SUMMONS, COMPLAINT, PROCESS OR PAPERS SO SERVED WITHIN
THIRTY DAYS AFTER THE MAILING THEREOF, THE BORROWER SHALL BE DEEMED IN DEFAULT
AND AN ORDER AND/OR JUDGMENT MAY BE ENTERED AGAINST IT AS DEMANDED OR PRAYED FOR
IN SUCH SUMMONS, COMPLAINT, PROCESS OR PAPERS. EACH PARTY FURTHER WAIVES ANY
OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR
PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN
INCONVENIENT FORUM AND EACH AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME. THE CHOICE OF
FORUM SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO PRECLUDE THE BRINGING OF
ANY ACTION BY THE AGENT OR ANY LENDER OR THE ENFORCEMENT BY THE AGENT OR ANY
LENDER OF ANY JUDGMENT OBTAINED IN SUCH FORUM IN ANY OTHER APPROPRIATE
JURISDICTION.

      (c) THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION HAVE BEEN CONSIDERED BY EACH PARTY
WITH THE ADVICE OF COUNSEL AND WITH A FULL UNDERSTANDING OF THE LEGAL
CONSEQUENCES THEREOF, AND SHALL

                                      -72-
<PAGE>
SURVIVE THE PAYMENT OF THE LOANS AND ALL OTHER AMOUNTS PAYABLE HEREUNDER OR
UNDER THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT.

SECTION 13.6. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.

      (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted
assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of
its rights or obligations under this Agreement or as of the other Loan Documents
without the prior written consent of all Lenders (and any such assignment or
other transfer to which all of the Lenders have not so consented shall be null
and void).

      (b) Any Lender may make, carry or transfer Loans at, to or for the
account of any of its branch offices or the office of an affiliate of such
Lender except to the extent such transfer would result in increased costs to the
Borrower.

      (c) Any Lender may at any time grant to an affiliate of such Lender, or
one or more banks or other financial institutions (each a "Participant")
participating interests in its Commitment or the Obligations owing to such
Lender; provided, however, any such participating interest must be for a
constant and not a varying percentage interest. Except as otherwise provided in
Section 13.4., no Participant shall have any rights or benefits under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document. In the event of any such grant by a Lender
of a participating interest to a Participant, such Lender shall remain
responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and the Borrower
and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in
connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any
agreement pursuant to which any Lender may grant such a participating interest
shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right and responsibility to
enforce the obligations of the Borrower hereunder including, without limitation,
the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of
this Agreement; provided, however, such Lender may agree with the Participant
that it will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to (i) increase,
or extend the term or extend the time or waive any requirement for the reduction
or termination of, such Lender's Commitment, (ii) extend the date fixed for the
payment of principal of or interest on the Loans or portions thereof owing to
such Lender, (iii) reduce the amount of any such payment of principal, or (iv)
reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon. An assignment or other
transfer which is not permitted by subsection (d) or (e) below shall be given
effect for purposes of this Agreement only to the extent of a participating
interest granted in accordance with this subsection (c). The selling Lender
shall notify the Agent and the Borrower of the sale of any participation
hereunder and the terms thereof.

      (d) Any Lender may with the prior written consent of the Agent and the
Borrower (which consent, in each case, shall not be unreasonably withheld) at
any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees (each an "Assignee") all or a
portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Notes;
provided, however, (i) no such consent by the Borrower shall be required (x) if
a Default or Event of Default shall exist or (y) in the case of an assignment to
another Lender or an affiliate of another Lender; (ii) any partial assignment
shall be in an amount

                                      -73-
<PAGE>
at least equal to $10,000,000 and integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess
thereof; (iii) after giving effect to such assignment, the assigning Lender
retains a Commitment, or if the Commitments have been terminated, holds Notes
having an aggregate outstanding principal balance of at least $10,000,000; (iv)
each such assignment shall be effected by means of an Assignment and Acceptance
Agreement; and (v) if, after giving effect to any assignment by the Lender then
acting as Agent, such Lender's Commitment would be less than the amount of any
other Lender's Commitment, such Lender shall (x) promptly notify all of the
other Lenders of such event and (y) resign as Agent subject to and in accordance
with Section 12.8. if within 5 Business Days of the giving of such notice, the
Requisite Lenders shall have requested in writing that such Lender so resign.
Upon execution and delivery of such instrument and payment by such Assignee to
such transferor Lender of an amount equal to the purchase price agreed between
such transferor Lender and such Assignee, such Assignee shall be deemed to be a
Lender party to this Agreement as of the effective date of the Assignment and
Acceptance Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender
with a Commitment as set forth in such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, and
the transferor Lender shall be released from its obligations hereunder to a
corresponding extent, and no further consent or action by any party shall be
required. Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this subsection
(d), the transferor Lender, the Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate
arrangements so that new Notes are issued to the Assignee and such transferor
Lender, as appropriate. In connection with any such assignment, the transferor
Lender shall pay to the Agent an administrative fee for processing such
assignment in the amount of $3,500. Anything in this Section to the contrary
notwithstanding, no Lender may assign or participate any interest in any Loan
held by it hereunder to the Borrower, or any of its respective affiliates or
Subsidiaries.

      (e) The Agent shall maintain a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance
Agreement delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of
the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of each Lender from
time to time (the "Register"). The Agent shall give each Lender and the Borrower
notice of the assignment by any Lender of its rights as contemplated by this
Section. The Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose
name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Register and copies of each
Assignment and Acceptance Agreement shall be available for inspection by the
Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon
reasonable prior notice to the Agent. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and
Acceptance Agreement executed by an assigning Lender, together with each Note
subject to such assignment, the Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance
Agreement has been completed and if the Agent receives the processing and
recording fee described in subsection (d) above, (i) accept such Assignment and
Acceptance Agreement, (ii) record the information contained therein in the
Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower.

      (f) In addition to the assignments and participations permitted under
the foregoing provisions of the Section, and without the need to comply with any
of the formal or procedural requirements of this Section, any Lender may at any
time and from time to time, pledge and assign all or any portion of its rights
under all or any of the Loan Documents to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that
no such pledge of assignment shall release such Lender from its

                                      -74-
<PAGE>
obligation thereunder. To facilitate any such pledge or assignment,
Administrative Agent shall, at the request of such Lender, enter into a letter
agreement with the Federal Reserve Bank in, or substantially in, the form of the
exhibit to Appendix C to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York Operating Circular
No 10, as amended from time to time.

      (g) A Lender may furnish any information concerning the Borrower, any
other Loan Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries in the possession of
such Lender from time to time to Assignees and Participants (including
prospective Assignees and Participants) subject to compliance with Section 13.9.

      (h) Anything in this Section to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender
may assign or participate any interest in any Loan held by it hereunder to the
Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates or
Subsidiaries.

      (i) Each Lender agrees that, without the prior written consent of the
Borrower and the Agent, it will not make any assignment hereunder in any manner
or under any circumstances that would require registration or qualification of,
or filings in respect of, any Loan or Note under the Securities Act or any other
securities laws of the United States of America or of any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 13.7. AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS.

      (a) Generally. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement,
(i) any consent or approval required or permitted by this Agreement or in any
Loan Document to be given by the Lenders may be given, (ii) any term of this
Agreement or of any other Loan Document (other than any fee letter solely
between the Borrower and the Agent) may be amended, (iii) the performance or
observance by the Borrower, the Parent, any other Loan Party or any other
Subsidiary of any terms of this Agreement or such other Loan Document (other
than any fee letter solely between the Borrower and the Agent) and (iv) the
continuance of any Default or Event of Default may be waived (either generally
or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), with,
but only with, the written consent of the Requisite Lenders (or the Agent at the
written direction of the Requisite Lenders), and, in the case of an amendment to
any Loan Document, the written consent of each Loan Party which is party
thereto.

      (b) Unanimous Consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment,
waiver or consent shall, unless in writing, and signed by all of the Lenders (or
the Agent at the written direction of the Lenders), do any of the following:

            (i) increase the Commitments of the Lenders (excluding any increase
      as a result of an assignment of Commitments permitted under Section
      13.6.(d)) or subject the Lenders to any additional obligations;

            (ii) reduce the principal of, or interest rates that have accrued or
      that will be charged on the outstanding principal amount of, any Loans or
      other Obligations, provided, however, the Agent may, in its sole
      discretion, waive up to two times per year any late charges incurred by
      the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.8.;

                                      -75-
<PAGE>
            (iii) reduce the amount of any Fees payable to the Lenders
      hereunder;

            (iv) postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or
      interest on, any Loans or for the payment of Fees or any other Obligations
      beyond the Termination Date;

            (v) change the Credit Percentages (excluding any change as a result
      of an assignment of Commitments permitted under Section 13.6.(d));

            (vi) modify the definition of the term "Commitment Termination Date"
      or "Termination Date";

            (vii) amend this Section or amend the definitions of the terms used
      in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents insofar as such definitions
      affect the substance of this Section;

            (viii) modify the definition of the term "Requisite Lenders" or
      modify in any other manner the number or percentage of the Lenders
      required to make any determinations or waive any rights hereunder or to
      modify any provision hereof;

            (ix) release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty,
      except as otherwise permitted under Section 8.14(d);

            (x) modify the definition of the terms "Maximum Availability" or
      "Unencumbered Pool Value" (and the definitions used in such definitions
      and the percentages and rates used in the calculation thereof); provided,
      however, the Requisite Lenders may agree to permit more than 20% of the
      Unencumbered Pool Value to be attributable to a given Eligible Property;

            (xi) waive a Default or Event of Default under subsection (a) of
      Section 11.1.;

            (xii) waive a Default or Event of Default under subsection (b) of
      Section 11.1. to the extent such Default or Event of Default arises
      from the failure of the Parent to perform or observe the covenant set
      forth in subsection (a) of Section 10.1.; and

            (xiii) amend, or waive the Borrower's compliance with, Section
      2.5.(b).

      (d) Amendment of Agent's Duties, Etc. No amendment, waiver or consent
unless in writing and signed by the Agent, in addition to the Lenders required
hereinabove to take such action, shall affect the rights or duties of the Agent
under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. No waiver shall extend
to or affect any obligation not expressly waived or impair any right consequent
thereon and any amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the
specific instance and for the specific purpose set forth therein. No course of
dealing or delay or omission on the part of the Agent or any Lender in
exercising any right shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise be
prejudicial thereto. Any Event of Default occurring hereunder shall continue to
exist until such time as such Event of Default is waived in writing in

                                      -76-
<PAGE>
accordance with the terms of this Section, notwithstanding any attempted cure or
other action by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person
subsequent to the occurrence of such Event of Default. Except as otherwise
explicitly provided for herein or in any other Loan Document, no notice to or
demand upon the Borrower shall entitle the Borrower to other or further notice
or demand in similar or other circumstances.

SECTION 13.8. NONLIABILITY OF AGENT AND LENDERS.

      The relationship between the Borrower, on the one hand, and the Lenders
and the Agent, on the other hand, shall be solely that of borrower and lender.
Neither the Agent nor any Lender shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to
the Borrower and no provision in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan
Documents, and no course of dealing between or among any of the parties hereto,
shall be deemed to create any fiduciary duty owing by the Agent or any Lender to
any Lender, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other Loan Party. Neither the
Agent nor any Lender undertakes any responsibility to the Borrower to review or
inform the Borrower of any matter in connection with any phase of the Borrower's
business or operations.

SECTION 13.9. CONFIDENTIALITY.

      Except as otherwise provided by Applicable Law, the Agent and each Lender
shall utilize all non-public information obtained pursuant to the requirements
of this Agreement which has been identified as confidential or proprietary by
the Borrower in accordance with its customary procedure for handling
confidential information of this nature and in accordance with safe and sound
banking practices but in any event may make disclosure: (a) to any of their
respective affiliates (provided any such affiliate shall agree to keep such
information confidential in accordance with the terms of this Section); (b) as
reasonably requested by any bona fide Assignee, Participant or other transferee
in connection with the contemplated transfer of any Commitment or participations
therein as permitted hereunder (provided they shall agree to keep such
information confidential in accordance with the terms of this Section); (c) as
required or requested by any Governmental Authority or representative thereof or
pursuant to legal process or in connection with any legal proceedings; (d) to
the Agent's or such Lender's independent auditors and other professional
advisors (provided they shall be notified of the confidential nature of the
information); (e) if an Event of Default exists, to any other Person, in
connection with the exercise by the Agent or the Lenders of rights hereunder or
under any of the other Loan Documents; and (f) to the extent such information
(x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this
Section or (y) becomes available to the Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential
basis from a source other than the Borrower or any Affiliate. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other written or oral
understanding or agreement to which the parties hereto are parties or by which
they are bound, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (i) any
obligations of confidentiality contained herein and therein do not apply and
have not applied from the commencement of discussions between the parties to the
tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated by the Loan
Documents (and any related transactions or arrangements), and (ii) each party
(and each of its employees, representatives, or other agents) may disclose to
any and all parties as required, without limitation of any kind, the tax
treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated by the Loan
Documents and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax
analyses) that are provided to such party relating to such tax treatment and tax
structure, all within the meaning of

                                      -77-
<PAGE>
Treasury Regulations Section 1.6011-4; provided, however, that each party
recognizes that the privilege each has to maintain, in its sole discretion, the
confidentiality of a communication relating to the transactions contemplated by
the Loan Documents, including a confidential communication with its attorney or
a confidential communication with a federally authorized tax practitioner under
Section 7525 of the Internal Revenue Code, is not intended to be affected by the
foregoing.

SECTION 13.10. INDEMNIFICATION.

      (a) The Borrower shall and hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold
harmless the Agent, any affiliate of the Agent and each of the Lenders and their
respective directors, officers, shareholders, agents, employees and counsel
(each referred to herein as an "Indemnified Party") from and against any and all
losses, costs, claims, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, judgments or expenses
of every kind and nature (including, without limitation, amounts paid in
settlement, court costs and the fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in
connection with any litigation, investigation, claim or proceeding or any advice
rendered in connection therewith, but excluding losses, costs, claims, damages,
liabilities, deficiencies, judgments or expenses indemnification in respect of
which is specifically covered by Section 3.11. or 5.1. or expressly excluded
from the coverage of such Sections) incurred by an Indemnified Party in

claim, arbitration, investigation or settlement, consent decree or other
proceeding (the foregoing referred to herein as an "Indemnity Proceeding") which
is in any way related directly or indirectly to: (i) this Agreement or any other
Loan Document or the transactions contemplated thereby; (ii) the making of any
Loans; (iii) any actual or proposed use by the Borrower of the proceeds of the
Loans; (iv) the Agent's or any Lender's entering into this Agreement; (v) the
fact that the Agent and the Lenders have established the credit facility
evidenced hereby in favor of the Borrower; (vi) the fact that the Agent and the
Lenders are creditors of the Borrower and have or are alleged to have
information regarding the financial condition, strategic plans or business
operations of the Parent, the Borrower and the Subsidiaries; (vii) the fact that
the Agent and the Lenders are material creditors of the Borrower and are alleged
to influence directly or indirectly the business decisions or affairs of the
Borrower and the Subsidiaries or their financial condition; (viii) the exercise
of any right or remedy the Agent or the Lenders may have under this Agreement or
the other Loan Documents; or (ix) any violation or non-compliance by the
Borrower or any Subsidiary of any Applicable Law (including any Environmental
Law) including, but not limited to, any Indemnity Proceeding commenced by (A)
the Internal Revenue Service or state taxing authority or (B) any Governmental
Authority or other Person under any Environmental Law, including any Indemnity
Proceeding commenced by a Governmental Authority or other Person seeking
remedial or other action to cause the Borrower or its Subsidiaries (or its
respective properties) (or the Agent and/or the Lenders as successors to the
Borrower) to be in compliance with such Environmental Laws; provided, however,
that the Borrower shall not be obligated to indemnify any Indemnified Party for
any acts or omissions of such Indemnified Party in connection with matters
described in the immediately preceding clause (ii) or (viii) that constitute
gross negligence or willful misconduct.

      (b) The Borrower's indemnification obligations under this Section shall
apply to all Indemnity Proceedings arising out of, or related to, the foregoing

Proceeding. In this connection, this indemnification shall cover all costs and
expenses of any Indemnified Party in connection with any deposition of

                                      -78-
<PAGE>

requesting the production of documents). This indemnification shall, among other
things, apply to any Indemnity Proceeding commenced by other creditors of the
Borrower or any Subsidiary, any shareholder of the Borrower or any Subsidiary
(whether such shareholder(s) are prosecuting such Indemnity Proceeding in their
individual capacity or derivatively on behalf of the Borrower), any account
debtor of the Borrower or any Subsidiary or by any Governmental Authority.

      (c) This indemnification shall apply to any Indemnity Proceeding arising
during the pendency of any bankruptcy proceeding filed by or against the
Borrower and/or any Subsidiary.

      (d) All out-of-pocket fees and expenses of, and all amounts paid to
third persons by, an Indemnified Party shall be advanced by the Borrower at the
request of such Indemnified Party notwithstanding any claim or assertion by the
Borrower that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification
hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking by such Indemnified Party that such
Indemnified Party will reimburse the Borrower if it is actually and finally
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such Indemnified Party is
not so entitled to indemnification hereunder.

      (e) An Indemnified Party may conduct its own investigation and defense
of, and may formulate its own strategy with respect to, any Indemnity Proceeding
covered by this Section and, as provided above, all costs and expenses incurred
by such Indemnified Party shall be reimbursed by the Borrower. No action taken
by legal counsel chosen by an Indemnified Party in investigating or defending
against any such Indemnity Proceeding shall vitiate or in any way impair the
obligations and duties of the Borrower hereunder to indemnify and hold harmless
each such Indemnified Party; provided, however, that (i) if the Borrower is
required to indemnify an Indemnified Party pursuant hereto and (ii) the Borrower
has provided evidence reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party that the
Borrower has the financial wherewithal to reimburse such Indemnified Party for
any amount paid by such Indemnified Party with respect to such Indemnity
Proceeding, such Indemnified Party shall not settle or compromise any such
Indemnity Proceeding without the prior written consent of the Borrower (which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

      (f) If and to the extent that the obligations of the Borrower hereunder
are unenforceable for any reason, the Borrower hereby agrees to make the maximum
contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such obligations which is
permissible under Applicable Law.

      (g) The Borrower's obligations hereunder shall survive any termination
of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the payment in full in cash
of the Obligations, and are in addition to, and not in substitution of, any of
the other obligations set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to
which it is a party.

SECTION 13.11. TERMINATION; SURVIVAL.

      At such time as (a) all of the Commitments have been terminated, (b) none
of the Lenders is obligated any longer under this Agreement to make any Loans
and (c) all Obligations (other than obligations which survive as provided in the
following sentence) have been paid and satisfied in full, this Agreement shall
terminate. The indemnities to which the Agent and the

                                      -79-
<PAGE>
Lenders are entitled under the provisions of Sections 3.11., 5.1., 5.4., 12.7.,
13.2., 13.10. and 13.21. and any other provision of this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents, and the provisions of Section 13.5., shall continue in full
force and effect and shall protect the Agent and the Lenders (i) notwithstanding
any termination of this Agreement, or of the other Loan Documents, against
events arising after such termination as well as before and (ii) at all times
after any such party ceases to be a party to this Agreement with respect to all
matters and events existing on or prior to the date such party ceased to be a
party to this Agreement.

SECTION 13.12. SEVERABILITY OF PROVISIONS.

      Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in
any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective only to the
extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the
remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions or affecting the
validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 13.13. GOVERNING LAW.

      THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE
LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS EXECUTED, AND TO BE FULLY
PERFORMED, IN SUCH STATE.

SECTION 13.14. COUNTERPARTS.

      This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements may be
executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in
separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be
deemed an original, but all of which counterparts together shall constitute but
one and the same instrument.

SECTION 13.15. OBLIGATIONS WITH RESPECT TO LOAN PARTIES.

      The obligations of the Borrower to direct or prohibit the taking of
certain actions by the other Loan Parties as specified herein shall be absolute
and not subject to any defense the Borrower may have that the Borrower does not
control such Loan Parties.

SECTION 13.16. MARSHALING; PAYMENTS SET ASIDE.

      Neither the Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal
any assets in favor of any Loan Party or any other party or against or in
payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that any Loan Party
makes a payment or payments to the Agent and/or any Lender, or the Agent and/or
any Lender enforce their 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, state or federal law, common law or
equitable cause, then to the extent of such recovery, the Obligations or part
thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies
therefor, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such
payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

                                      -80-
<PAGE>
SECTION 13.17. INDEPENDENCE OF COVENANTS.

      All covenants hereunder shall be given in any jurisdiction 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 be
otherwise within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the
occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or
condition exists.

SECTION 13.18. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.

      Neither the Agent nor any Lender, nor any affiliate, officer, director,
employee, attorney, or agent of the Agent or any Lender shall have any liability
with respect to, and the Borrower hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to sue
any of them upon, any claim for any special, indirect, incidental, or
consequential damages suffered or incurred by the Borrower in connection with,
arising out of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any of the other
Loan Documents, or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any
of the other Loan Documents. The Borrower hereby waives, releases, and agrees
not to sue the Agent or any Lender or any of the Agent's or any Lender's
affiliates, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, or agents for punitive
damages in respect of any claim in connection with, arising out of, or in any
way related to, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement or financed hereby.

SECTION 13.19. ENTIRE AGREEMENT.

      This Agreement, the Notes, and the other Loan Documents referred to herein
embody the final, entire agreement among the parties hereto and supersede any
and all prior commitments, agreements, representations, and understandings,
whether written or oral, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and
may not be contradicted or varied by evidence of prior, contemporaneous, or
subsequent oral agreements or discussions of the parties hereto. There are no
oral agreements among the parties hereto.

SECTION 13.20. CONSTRUCTION.

      The Agent, the Borrower and each Lender acknowledge that each of them has
had the benefit of legal counsel of its own choice and has been afforded an
opportunity to review this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with its legal
counsel and that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be construed
as if jointly drafted by the Agent, the Borrower and each Lender.

SECTION 13.21. NEW YORK COLLATERAL DOCUMENTS.

      (a) Generally. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Agent and
the Lenders are accepting the benefits of the New York Collateral Documents as
an accommodation to the Parent and the Borrower.

                                      -81-
<PAGE>
      (b) Release of New York Collateral Documents. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary,
including without limitation, Section 13.7., (i) upon the Borrower's written
request and at the Borrower's sole cost and expense, the Agent shall release any
or all of the New York Collateral Documents or assign any or all of the New York
Collateral Documents to any Person requested by the Borrower (any such
assignment to be without recourse or warranty whatsoever) and (ii) the Agent may
in its discretion, and shall at the direction of the Requisite Lenders, release
any or all of the New York Collateral Documents so long as the Agent shall have
given the Borrower written notice at least 30 days' prior to any such release;
provided, however, the Agent shall not be required to give any such prior notice
to the Borrower if the Agent, in its sole discretion, has determined that delay
of such release would be detrimental to the Agent or the Lenders.

      (c) Indemnity. Not in limitation of any of the Borrower's obligations
under Section 13.2.(c) or 13.10., the Borrower shall and hereby agrees to
indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Agent, each Lender and each other
Indemnified Party from and against any and all losses, costs, claims, damages,
liabilities, deficiencies, judgments or expenses of every kind and nature
(including, without limitation, amounts paid in settlement, court costs and the
fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any litigation,
investigation, claim or proceeding or any advice rendered in connection
therewith) incurred by an Indemnified Party in connection with, arising out of,
or by reason of, any Indemnity Proceeding which is in any way related directly
or indirectly to the failure of any Person to pay any recording tax payable
pursuant to N.Y. Tax Law, Ch. 60, Art. 11, Sec. 253 et seq. or other Applicable
Laws of the State of New York or any political subdivision of such State.
