         (b)      Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain
Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment,
renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Company shall
hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if
arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Issuing Bank) to the
Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the
requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice
requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of
Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance,
amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on
which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c)
of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of
the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to
prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the
Issuing Bank, the Company also shall submit a letter of credit application on
the Issuing Bank's standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of
Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only
if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit
the Company shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect
to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the LC Exposure shall not
exceed $100,000,000 and (ii) the sum of (I) the outstanding aggregate principal
amount of all Loans and (II) the LC Exposure shall not exceed the aggregate
Commitments.

         (c)      Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or
prior to the close of business on the date that is five Business Days prior to
the Termination Date.

         (d)      Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an
amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any
further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or the Banks, the Issuing Bank
hereby grants to each Bank, and each Bank hereby acquires from the Issuing
Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Bank's Applicable
Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of
Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Bank hereby
absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for
the account of the

<PAGE>
                                                                              7


Issuing Bank, such Bank's Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by
the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Company on the date due as provided
in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to
be refunded to the Company for any reason. Each Bank acknowledges and agrees
that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in
respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be
affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or
extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a
Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such
payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction
whatsoever.

         (e)      Reimbursement. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC
Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Company shall reimburse such
LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such
LC Disbursement not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date that
such LC Disbursement is made, if the Company shall have received notice of such
LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date, or, if
such notice has not been received by the Company prior to such time on such
date, then not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on (i) the Business
Day that the Company receives such notice, if such notice is received prior to
10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the day of receipt, or (ii) the Business Day
immediately following the day that the Company receives such notice, if such
notice is not received prior to such time on the day of receipt; provided that,
if such LC Disbursement is not less than the minimum borrowing amount, the
Company may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request
that such payment be financed with an Alternate Base Rate Loan or Federal Funds
Rate Loan in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Company's
obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the
resulting Alternate Base Rate Loan or Federal Funds Rate Loan. If the Company
fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each
Bank of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Company
in respect thereof and such Bank's Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly
following receipt of such notice, each Bank shall pay to the Administrative
Agent its Applicable Percentage of the LC Disbursement not reimbursed by the
Company,

<PAGE>
                                                                              8


in the same manner as provided in Section 2.01 with respect to Loans made by
such Bank (and Section 2.01 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment
obligations of the Banks), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to
the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Banks. Promptly
following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Company
pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such
payment to the Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Banks have made payments
pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Banks
and the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Bank
pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LC
Disbursement (other than the funding of Alternate Base Rate Loans or Federal
Funds Rate Loans as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall
not relieve the Company of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

         (f)      Obligations Absolute. The Company's obligation to reimburse
LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be
absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances
whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of
any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii)
any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be
forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being
untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Issuing Bank under a
Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does
not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or
circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that
might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable
discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Company's obligations
hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Banks, the Issuing Bank, nor
any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by
reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of
Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective
of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any
error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any
draft, notice or other communication

<PAGE>
                                                                              9


under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to
make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or
any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank;
provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank
from liability to the Company to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed
to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the
Company to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Company that
are caused by the Issuing Bank's failure to exercise care when determining
whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply
with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence
of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as
finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank
shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In
furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the
parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their
face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the
Issuing Bank may, at its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon
such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of
any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment
upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the
terms of such Letter of Credit.

         (g)      Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Bank shall, promptly
following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a
demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall promptly
notify the Administrative Agent and the Company by telephone (confirmed by
telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or
will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or
delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Company of its obligation to
reimburse the Issuing Bank and the Banks with respect to any such LC
Disbursement.

         (h)      Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC
Disbursement, then, unless the Company shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in
full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall
bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is
made to but

<PAGE>
                                                                             10


excluding the date that the Company reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the
Default Rate. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the
account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date
of payment by any Bank pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse
any Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Bank to the extent of such
payment.

         (i)      Replacement of the Issuing Bank. The Issuing Bank may be
replaced at any time by written agreement among the Company, the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative
Agent shall notify the Banks of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank. At
the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Company shall pay all
unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank. From and
after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing
Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the replaced Issuing Bank
under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter
and (ii) references herein to the term "Issuing Bank" shall be deemed to refer
to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all
previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of
the Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party
hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing
Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior
to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of
Credit.

         (j)      Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur
and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Company receives notice from
the Administrative Agent (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been
accelerated, Banks with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total
LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this
paragraph, the Company shall deposit in an account with the Administrative
Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the
Banks, an amount in cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any
accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit
such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall
become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind,
upon the

<PAGE>
                                                                             11


occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Company described in
Section 10.11 or 10.12. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent
as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Company
under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion
and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account.
Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which
investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the
Administrative Agent and at the Company's risk and expense, such deposits shall
not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall
accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the
Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for
which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be
held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Company for
the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been
accelerated (but subject to the consent of Banks with LC Exposure representing
greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other
obligations of the Company under this Agreement. If the Company is required to
provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of
an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall
be returned to the Company within three Business Days after all Events of
Default have been cured or waived.
