                  agrees to advance to Borrowers from time to time during the
                  period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the
                  Facility A Maturity Date its pro rata share of such revolving
                  loans in Currencies as Borrowers may request under Facility A
                  (individually, a "Facility A Loan"); provided, however, that
                  no Lender shall have any obligation to make a requested
                  Facility A Loan if, after giving effect to such Loan, the
                  Dollar Equivalent of such Lender's Facility A Loans then
                  outstanding plus such Lender's Proportionate Share of the
                  aggregate amount available for drawing under all Letters of
                  Credit outstanding at such time plus such Lender's
                  Proportionate Share of the aggregate amount of all
                  Reimbursement Obligations outstanding at such time would
                  exceed such Lender's Facility A Commitment at such time. All
                  Facility A Loans shall be made on a pro rata basis by Facility
                  A Lenders in accordance with their respective Facility A
                  Proportionate Shares, with each Facility A Borrowing to be
                  comprised of a Facility A Loan made by each Facility A Lender
                  equal to such Facility A Lender's Proportionate Share of such

                                    (D)      Each Letter of Credit shall be in a

                                    (F)      The applicable Borrower for such
                           Letter of Credit.

                  The applicable Borrower shall give each LC Application to

                  Application or any agreement (other than any Letter of Credit)
                  related thereto (including, without limitation, terms with
                  respect to fees and covenants), the terms of this Agreement
                  shall control.

                           (iii)    Disbursement and Reimbursement.

                                    (A)      Disbursement. Issuing Bank shall
                           notify the requesting Borrower promptly upon receipt
                           by Issuing Bank of the presentment of any demand for
                           payment under any Letter of Credit, together with
                           notice of the amount of such payment and the date
                           such payment is to be made. Subject to the terms and
                           provisions of such Letter of Credit and applicable
                           law, Issuing Bank shall make such payment (a "Drawing
                           Payment") to the appropriate beneficiary. Upon
                           payment by Issuing Bank of each Drawing Payment, the
                           remaining available amount under such Letter of
                           Credit (if any) shall be reduced by the amount of
                           such payment.

                                    (B)      Time of Reimbursement. On the day
                           each Drawing Payment is to be made by Issuing Bank,
                           Borrowers shall make or cause to be made to Issuing
                           Bank a payment in the amount of such Drawing Payment
                           (a "Reimbursement Payment"); provided, however, that
                           if the requesting Borrower does not receive notice
                           from Issuing Bank by 10:00 a.m. (California time)
                           that a Reimbursement Payment is due, such
                           Reimbursement Payment (together with interest thereon
                           accruing at the Federal Funds Rate for each day from
                           and including the date such Drawing Payment is made
                           but excluding the date such Reimbursement Payment is
                           made) shall instead be due on the next succeeding
                           Business Day after the requesting Borrower receives
                           such notice; provided, further, that Borrowers shall
                           make such Reimbursement Payment to, or cause such
                           Reimbursement Payment to be made to, Agent for the
                           benefit of the Facility A Lenders if, prior to the
                           time such Reimbursement Payment is made, Issuing Bank
                           has notified the applicable Borrower that it has
                           requested the Facility Lenders pursuant to
                           Subparagraph 2.01(b)(iv) to pay to Issuing Bank their
                           respective Proportionate Shares of the Drawing
                           Payment made by Issuing Bank. If any such
                           Reimbursement Payment is made to Agent, Agent shall
                           promptly pay to each Facility A Lender which has paid
                           its Proportionate Share of the Drawing Payment, such
                           Facility A Lender's Proportionate Share of the
                           Reimbursement Payment and shall promptly pay to
                           Issuing Bank the balance of such Reimbursement
                           Payment.

                                    (C)      Reimbursement Obligation Absolute.
                           The obligation of Borrowers to reimburse Issuing Bank
                           or the Facility A Lenders, as the case may be, for
                           Drawing Payments (such obligation, together with the
                           obligation to pay interest thereon, to be referred to
                           herein collectively as a "Reimbursement Obligation")
                           shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and
                           shall be performed strictly in accordance with the
                           terms of this Agreement under and without regard to
                           any circumstances, including, without limitation (1)
                           the passage of the Facility A Maturity Date, (2) any
                           lack of validity or enforceability of any of the
                           Credit Documents, (3) the existence of any claim,
                           setoff, defense or other right which Borrowers may
                           have at any time against any beneficiary or any
                           transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Persons
                           for whom any such beneficiary or transferee may be
                           acting), Issuing Bank, Agent, any other Facility A
                           Lender or any other Person, whether in connection
                           with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated
                           herein or in the other Credit Documents, or in any
                           unrelated transaction, (4) any breach of contract or
                           dispute between Borrowers, any beneficiary or any
                           transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Persons
                           for whom any such beneficiary or transferee may be
                           acting), Issuing Bank, any Agent, any Facility A
                           Lender or any other Person, (5) any demand, statement
                           or other document presented under any Letter of
                           Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or
                           insufficient in any respect or any statement therein
                           being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (6)
                           payment by Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit
                           against presentation of a demand for payment which
                           does not comply with the terms of such Letter of
                           Credit, (7) any non-application or misapplication by
                           any beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of
                           Credit (or any Persons for whom any such beneficiary
                           or transferee may be acting) of the proceeds of any
                           drawing under such Letter of Credit or (8) any delay,
                           extension of time, renewal, compromise or other
                           indulgence or modification granted or agreed to by
                           Issuing Bank, Agent or any Facility A Lender, with

<PAGE>
                           or without notice to or approval by Borrowers, with
                           respect to Borrowers' indebtedness under this
                           Agreement; provided, however, that this Subparagraph
                           2.01(b)(iii)(C) shall not abrogate any right which
                           Borrowers may have to seek to enjoin any drawing
                           under any Letter of Credit or to recover damages from
                           Issuing Bank pursuant to Subparagraph 2.01(c)(v).

                           (iv)     Facility A Lender Participations; Facility A
                                    Loan Funding.

                                    (A)      Participation Agreement. Each
                           Facility A Lender severally, unconditionally and
                           irrevocably agrees with Issuing Bank to participate
                           in the extension of credit arising from the issuance
                           of each Letter of Credit in an amount equal to such
                           Lender's Proportionate Share of the stated amount of
                           such Letter of Credit from time to time, and the
                           issuance of each Letter of Credit shall be deemed a
                           confirmation by Issuing Bank of such participation in
                           such amount.

                                    (B)      Participation Funding. Issuing Bank
                           may request the Facility A Lenders to fund their
                           participations in Letters of Credit by paying to
                           Issuing Bank all or any portion of any Drawing
                           Payment made or to be made by Issuing Bank under any
                           Letter of Credit. Issuing Bank shall make such a
                           request by delivering to Agent (with a copy to
                           Borrowers), at any time after the drawing for which
                           such payment is requested has been made upon Issuing
                           Bank, a written request for such payment which
                           specifies the amount of such Drawing Payment and the
                           date on which such Drawing Payment is to be made or
                           was made; provided, however, that Issuing Bank shall
                           not request the Facility A Lenders to make any
                           payment under this Subparagraph 2.01(b)(iv) in
                           connection with any portion of a Drawing Payment for
                           which Issuing Bank has been reimbursed from a
                           Reimbursement Payment by Borrowers unless such
                           Reimbursement Payment has been thereafter recovered
                           by Borrowers or any other Person. Agent shall
                           promptly notify each Facility A Lender of the
                           contents of each such request and of such Facility A
                           Lender's Proportionate Share of the applicable
                           portion of such Drawing Payment. Promptly following
                           receipt of such notice from Agent, each Facility A
                           Lender shall pay to Agent, for the benefit of Issuing
                           Bank, such Facility A Lender's Proportionate Share of
                           the applicable portion of such Drawing Payment.

                                    (C)      Funding Through Facility A Loans.
                           If, at any time prior to the Facility A Maturity
                           Date, any Reimbursement Obligations are outstanding,
                           Agent may or, upon the written request of Issuing
                           Bank (if one or more Borrower is not then the subject
                           of a bankruptcy proceeding), shall (subject to the
                           terms and conditions of this Subparagraph
                           2.01(b)(iv)), initiate a Facility A Borrowing in an
                           amount not exceeding the aggregate amount of such
                           outstanding Reimbursement Obligations and use the
                           proceeds of such Facility A Borrowing to repay all or
                           a portion of such Reimbursement Obligations. Agent
                           shall initiate such a Facility A Borrowing by
                           delivering to each Facility A Lender (with a copy to
                           the applicable Borrower) a written notice which
                           specifies the aggregate amount of outstanding
                           Reimbursement Obligations, the amount of the Facility
                           A Borrowing (which initially shall consist of Base
                           Rate Loans), the date of such Facility A Borrowing
                           and the amount of the Facility A Loan to be made by
                           such Facility A Lender as part of such Facility A
                           Borrowing. Each Facility A Lender shall make
                           available to Agent funds in the amount of its
                           Facility A Loan as provided in Subparagraph 2.10(a).
                           After receipt of such funds, Agent shall promptly
                           disburse such funds to Issuing Bank and the Facility
                           A Lenders, as appropriate, in payment of the
                           outstanding Reimbursement Obligations.

                                    (D)      Obligations Absolute. Each Facility
                           A Lender's obligations to fund its participations
                           under this Subparagraph 2.01(b)(iv) shall be
                           absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall not
                           be affected by (1) the passage of the Facility A
                           Maturity Date, (2) the occurrence or existence of any
                           Default, (3) any failure to satisfy any condition set
                           forth in Section III, (4) any event or condition
                           which might have a Material Adverse


                                       22
<PAGE>
                           Effect, (5) the failure of any other Facility A
                           Lender to make any payment under this Subparagraph
                           2.01(b)(iv), (6) any right of offset, abatement,
                           withholding or reduction which such Lender may have
                           against Issuing Bank, Agent, any Facility A Lender or
                           any Borrower, (7) any event, circumstance or
                           condition set forth in Subparagraph 2.01(b)(iii) or
                           Subparagraph 2.01(b)(v), or (8) any other event,
                           circumstance or condition whatsoever, whether or not
                           similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however,
                           that nothing in this Subparagraph 2.01(b)(iv) shall
                           prejudice any right which any Facility A Lender may
                           have against Issuing Bank for any action by Issuing
                           Bank which constitutes gross negligence or willful
                           misconduct.

                           (v)      Liability of Issuing Bank, Etc. Provided
                  that Issuing Bank has used reasonable care in examining all
                  documents presented to it in connection with a demand on any
                  Letter of Credit, Borrowers agree that none of Issuing Bank,
                  Agent or any Facility A Lender (nor any of their respective
                  directors, officers or employees) shall be liable or
                  responsible for (A) the use which may be made of any Letter of
                  Credit or for any acts or omissions of any beneficiary or
                  transferee thereof in connection therewith; (B) any reference
                  which may be made to this Agreement or to any Letter of Credit
                  in any agreements, instruments or other documents relating to
                  obligations secured by such Letter of Credit; (C) the
                  validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of any
                  endorsement(s) thereon, even if such documents should in fact
                  prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient,
                  fraudulent or forged or any statement therein prove to be
                  untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever; (D) payment by
                  Issuing Bank against presentation of documents which do not
                  comply with the terms of any Letter of Credit, including
                  failure of any documents to bear any reference or adequate
                  reference to any Letter of Credit; or (E) any other
                  circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment
                  under any Letter of Credit, except only that Issuing Bank
                  shall be liable to Borrowers for acts or events described in
                  clauses (A) through (E) above, to the extent, but only to the
                  extent, of any damages suffered by Borrowers (excluding
                  consequential damages) which Borrowers prove were caused by
                  (1) Issuing Bank's willful misconduct or gross negligence in
                  determining whether a drawing made under any Letter of Credit
                  complies with the terms and conditions therefor stated in such
                  Letter of Credit or (2) Issuing Bank's willful misconduct or
                  gross negligence in failing to pay under any Letter of Credit
                  after a drawing by the beneficiary thereof strictly complying
                  with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit.
                  Without limiting the foregoing, Issuing Bank may accept a
                  drawing that appears on its face to be in order, without
                  responsibility for further investigation. The determination of
                  whether a drawing has been made under any Letter of Credit
                  prior to its expiration or whether a drawing made under any
                  Letter of Credit is in proper and sufficient form shall be
                  made by Issuing Bank in its sole discretion, which
                  determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrowers
                  to the extent permitted by law. Borrowers hereby waive any
                  right to object to any payment made under any Letter of Credit
                  with regard to a drawing that is in the form provided in such
                  Letter of Credit but which varies with respect to punctuation,
                  capitalization, spelling or similar matters of form.

                           (vi)     Reports of Issuing Bank. Issuing Bank shall,
                  on a monthly basis if requested by Agent, provide to Agent
                  such information regarding the Letters of Credit as Agent may
                  reasonably request, including the Letters of Credit
                  outstanding, the stated amounts of outstanding Letters of
                  Credit, the expiration dates of outstanding Letters of Credit,
                  the names of the beneficiaries of outstanding Letters of
                  Credit, the amounts of unpaid Reimbursement Obligations and
                  the amounts and times of Drawing Payments and Reimbursement
                  Payments. Promptly upon receipt, Agent shall provide such
                  information to the Facility A Lenders.

                  (c)      Facility B Loans.

                           (i)      Availability. Subject to the terms and
                  conditions of this Agreement (including the amount limitations
                  set forth in Paragraph 2.05), each Facility B Lender severally
                  agrees to advance to Borrowers from time to time during the
                  period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the
                  Facility B Maturity Date its pro rata share of such revolving
                  loans in Currencies as Borrowers may request under Facility B
                  (individually, a "Facility B Loan"); provided, however,


                                       23
<PAGE>
                  that no Facility B Lender shall have any obligation to make a
                  requested Facility B Loan if, after giving effect to such
                  Loan, the Dollar Equivalent of such Lender's Facility B Loans
                  then outstanding would exceed such Lender's Facility B
                  Commitment at such time. All Facility B Loans shall be made on
                  a pro rata basis by Facility B Lenders in accordance with
                  their respective Facility B Proportionate Shares, with each
                  Facility B Borrowing to be comprised of a Facility B Loan made
                  by each Facility B Lender equal to such Facility B Lender's
                  Proportionate Share of such Facility B Borrowing. Except as
                  otherwise provided herein, Borrowers may borrow, repay and
                  reborrow Facility B Loans until the Facility B Maturity Date.

                           (ii) Scheduled Payments. Borrowers shall repay the
                  principal amount of the Facility B Loans in full on the
                  Facility B Maturity Date. Borrowers shall pay accrued interest
                  on the unpaid principal amount of each Facility B Loan in
                  arrears (A) in the case of a Base Rate Loan, on the last day
                  of the month of each March, June, September and December, (B)
                  in the case of a LIBOR Loan, on the last day of each Interest
                  Period therefor (and, if any such Interest Period is equal to
                  or longer than three (3) months, every three (3) months); and
                  (C) in the case of all Facility B Loans, upon prepayment (to
                  the extent thereof) and at maturity.

         2.02.    Notice of Borrowing. Borrowers shall request each Borrowing by
delivering to Agent an irrevocable written notice in the form of Exhibit A,
appropriately completed (a "Notice of Borrowing"), which specifies, among other
things:

                  (a)      Whether such Borrowing is a Borrowing under Facility
         A or Facility B;

                  (b)      The currency and principal amount of such Borrowing,
         which shall be in the minimum Dollar Equivalent of $5,000,000 or an
         integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof;

                  (c)      Whether such requested Borrowing is to consist of
         Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Loans;

                  (d)      If such Borrowing is to consist of LIBOR Loans, the
         initial Interest Period selected by the applicable Borrower for such
         Borrowing in accordance with Subparagraph 2.03(b)(i);

                  (e)      The date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business
         Day; and

                  (f)      The applicable Borrower for such Borrowing.

Borrowers shall give each Notice of Borrowing to Agent at least four (4)
Business Days before the date of the requested Borrowing in the case of a
Borrowing in an Alternative Currency and at three (3) Business Days before the
date of the requested Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing in Dollars consisting
of LIBOR Loans and at least one (1) Business Day before the date of the
requested Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing in Dollars consisting of Base
Rate Loans. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be signed by a Responsible Officer of
the applicable Borrower and delivered by first-class mail or facsimile to Agent
at the office or facsimile number and during the hours specified in Paragraph
8.01; provided, however, that Borrowers shall promptly deliver to Agent the
original of any Notice of Borrowing initially delivered by facsimile. Agent
shall promptly notify each Lender of the contents of each Notice of Borrowing.

         2.03.    Interest.

                  (a)      Interest Rates. Borrowers shall pay interest on the
         unpaid principal amount of each Loan from the date of such Loan until
         the maturity thereof, at one of the following rates per annum:

                           (i)      During such periods as any Loan is a Base
                  Rate Loan, at a rate per annum on such Loan equal to the Base
                  Rate plus the Applicable Margin therefor, such rate to change
                  from time to time as the Applicable Margin or Base Rate shall
                  change; and


                                       24
<PAGE>
                           (ii)     During such periods as any Loan is a LIBOR
                  Loan, at a rate per annum on such Loan equal at all times
                  during each Interest Period for such Loan to the LIBO Rate for
                  such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin therefor, such
                  rate to change from time to time as the Applicable Margin
                  shall change.

         All Loans in each Borrowing shall, at any given time prior to maturity,
         bear interest at one, and only one, of the above rates. Only Borrowings
         in Dollars may be Base Rate Loans. Each LIBOR Loan Borrowing shall be
         in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000
         in excess thereof.

                  (b)      Terms.

                           (i)      LIBOR Loan Interest Periods. The initial and
                  each subsequent Interest Period selected by a Borrower for any
                  Borrowing consisting of LIBOR Loans shall be one (1), two (2),
                  three (3) or six (6) months; provided, however, that (A) any
                  Interest Period which would otherwise end on a day which is
                  not a Business Day shall be extended to the next succeeding
                  Business Day unless such next Business Day falls in another
                  calendar month, in which case such Interest Period shall end
                  on the immediately preceding Business Day; (B) any Interest
                  Period which begins on the last Business Day of a calendar
                  month (or on a day for which there is no numerically
                  corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such
                  Interest Period) shall end on the last Business Day of a
                  calendar month; (C) no Interest Period for a Facility A
                  Borrowing shall end after the Facility A Maturity Date; and
                  (D) no Interest Period of a Facility B Borrowing shall end
                  after the Facility B Maturity Date.

                           (ii)     Notice of Interest Period Selection. The
                  applicable Borrower shall notify Agent by an irrevocable
                  written notice in a form acceptable to Agent, appropriately
                  completed (a "Notice of Interest Period Selection"), at least
                  four (4) Business Days prior to the last day of each Interest
                  Period for any Borrowing in an Alternative Currency and at
                  least three (3) Business Days prior to the last day of each
                  Interest Period for a Borrowing in Dollars consisting of LIBOR
                  Loans of the Interest Period selected by such Borrower for the
                  next succeeding Interest Period for such Borrowing. Each
                  Notice of Interest Period Selection shall be given by
                  first-class mail or facsimile to the office or the facsimile
                  number and during the hours specified in Paragraph 8.01;
                  provided, however, that the applicable Borrower shall promptly
                  deliver to Agent the original of any Notice of Interest Period
                  Selection initially delivered by facsimile. If any Borrower
                  fails to notify Agent of the next Interest Period for a
                  Borrowing in accordance with this Subparagraph 2.03(b)(ii),
                  the next Interest Period for such Borrowing shall be one (1)
                  month and if no currency is specified then the Borrowing shall
                  be deemed to continue in the same currency as the existing
                  Loan. Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the contents
                  of each Notice of Interest Period Selection.

                           (iii)    Conversion of Borrowings. Each Borrowing
                  initially shall be of the type specified in the applicable
                  Notice of Borrowing and, in the case of a LIBOR Loan, shall
                  have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Notice of
                  Borrowing. Thereafter, the Borrower(s) may elect to convert
                  such Borrowing to a different type or to continue such
                  Borrowing and, in the case of a LIBOR Loan, may elect Interest
                  Periods therefor, all as provided in this Paragraph 2.03. The
                  Borrowers may elect different options with respect to
                  different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case
                  each such portion shall be allocated ratably among Lenders
                  holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans
                  comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate
                  Borrowing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall
                  any Borrower be permitted to convert a Loan in one currency
                  into a Loan of a different currency (as opposed to repaying
                  such Loan and thereafter obtaining a new Loan).

                  (a)      Commitment Limitations. The Dollar amount or Dollar
         Equivalent (as applicable) of the aggregate principal amount of all
         Facility A Loans outstanding plus the aggregate Dollar amount or Dollar
         Equivalent (as applicable) available for drawing under all Letters of
         Credit outstanding at such time plus the aggregate Dollar amount or
         Dollar Equivalent (as applicable) of all Reimbursement Obligations
         outstanding at such time shall not exceed the Total Facility A
         Commitment at such time. The Dollar amount or Dollar Equivalent (as
         applicable) of the aggregate principal amount of all Facility B Loans
         outstanding at any time shall not exceed the Total Facility B
         Commitment at such time.

                  (b)      Determination of Dollar Equivalent. For the purposes
         of applying the amount limitations set forth in Subparagraph 2.05(a)
         and calculating the Unused Total Facility A Commitment, Letter of
         Credit subfacility and the Unused Total Facility B Commitment and for
         all other purposes herein, the Dollar Equivalent of each Loan and
         Letter of Credit in an Alternative Currency shall be determined by
         Agent on the date of such Loan or Letter of Credit, on the last day of
         each month and, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
         at any other time determined by Agent, and the Dollar Equivalent of
         such Loan and Letter of Credit at any time shall be the Dollar
         Equivalent most recently so determined by Agent. Each such
         determination by Agent shall, in the absence of manifest error, be
         conclusive and binding on the parties hereto.

                  (c)      Reduction or Cancellation of Commitments. Upon five
         (5) Business Days prior written notice to Agent, Borrowers may
         permanently reduce the Total Facility A Commitment and/or the Total
         Facility B Commitment by the Dollar Equivalent amount of Five Million
         Dollars ($5,000,000) or integral multiples in excess thereof, or cancel
         the Total Facility A Commitment and/or the Total Facility B Commitment
         in its entirety; provided, however, that:

                           (i)      Borrowers may not reduce the Total Facility
                  A Commitment prior to the Facility A Maturity Date, if, after
                  giving effect to such reduction, the Dollar Equivalent of the
                  aggregate principal amount of all Facility A Loans then
                  outstanding plus the aggregate amount available for drawing
                  under all Letters of Credit outstanding at such time plus the
                  aggregate amount of all Reimbursement Obligations outstanding
                  at such time would exceed the Total Facility A Commitment;

                           (ii)     Borrowers may not reduce the Total Facility
                  B Commitment prior to the Facility B Maturity Date if, after
                  giving effect to such reduction, the Dollar Equivalent of the
                  aggregate principal amount of all Facility B Loans then
                  outstanding would exceed the Total Facility B Commitment;

                           (iii)    Borrowers may not cancel the Total Facility
                  A Commitment prior to the Facility A Maturity Date, if, after
                  giving effect to such cancellation, any Facility A Loan,
                  Reimbursement Obligation or Letter of Credit would then remain
                  outstanding; and

                           (iv)     Borrowers may not cancel the Total Facility
                  B Commitment prior to the Facility B Maturity Date, if, after
                  giving effect to such cancellation, any Facility B Loan would
                  then remain outstanding.

         Unless sooner terminated pursuant to this Agreement, the Facility A
         Commitments shall terminate on the Facility A Maturity Date and the
         Facility B Commitments shall terminate on the Facility B Maturity Date.

                  (d)      Effect of Commitment Reductions. From the effective
         date of any reduction of the Total Facility A Commitment or the Total
         Facility B Commitment, the Commitment Fees payable pursuant to
         Subparagraph 2.06(b) shall be computed on the basis of the Total
         Facility A Commitment and/or the Total Facility B Commitment as so
         reduced. Once reduced or cancelled, the Total Facility A Commitment or
         the Total Facility B Commitment may not be increased or reinstated
         without the prior written consent of all Facility A Lenders or Facility
         B Lenders, as applicable. Any reduction of the Total Facility A
         Commitment shall be applied ratably to reduce each Facility A Lender's
         Facility A Commitment in accordance with Subparagraph 2.11(a)(i). Any
         reduction of the Total Facility B Commitment shall be applied to reduce
         each Facility B Lender's Facility B Commitment in accordance with
         Subparagraph 2.11(a)(ii).

                           (i)      Borrowers shall pay principal of, interest

                  Commitment Fees and all other amounts payable under this
                  Agreement and the other Credit Documents in Dollars. If, for

                  Rule from making any required payment hereunder in an
                  Alternative Currency, such Borrower shall make such payment in
                  Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of such Alternative Currency
                  amount as determined by Agent.

                           (ii)     If any amounts required to be paid by
                  Borrowers under this Agreement, any other Credit Document or
                  any order, judgment or award given or rendered in relation
                  hereto or thereto has to be converted from the currency (the
                  "first currency") in which the same is payable hereunder or
                  thereunder into another currency (the "second currency") for
                  the purpose of (A) making or filing a claim or proof against
                  Borrowers with any Governmental Authority, (B) obtaining an
                  order or judgment in any court or other tribunal or (C)
                  enforcing any order or judgment given or made in relation
                  hereto, Borrowers shall, to the fullest extent permitted by
                  law, indemnify and hold harmless each of the Persons to whom
                  such amounts are payable from and against any loss suffered as
                  a result of any discrepancy between (1) the rate of exchange
                  used for such purpose to convert the amounts in question from
                  the first currency into the second currency and (2) the rate
                  or rates of exchange at which such Person may, using
                  reasonable efforts in the ordinary course of business,
                  purchase the first currency with the second currency upon
                  receipt of a sum paid to it in satisfaction, in whole or in
                  part, of any such order, judgment, claim or proof. The
                  foregoing indemnity shall constitute a separate obligation of
                  Borrowers distinct from their other obligations hereunder and
                  shall survive the giving or making of any judgment or order in
                  relation to all or any of such obligations. The obligations of
                  Borrowers under this Subparagraph 2.08(c) shall survive the
                  payment and performance of the Obligations and the termination
                  of this Agreement.

                  (d)      Late Payments. If any amount required to be paid by
         any Borrower under this Agreement or the other Credit Documents
         (including, without limitation, principal or interest payable on any
         Loan, any Reimbursement Payments or interest thereon, any fees or other
         amounts) remains unpaid after such amount is due, such Borrower shall
         pay interest on the aggregate, outstanding balance of such amount from
         the date due until such amount is paid in full at a per annum rate
         equal to (i) in the case any amount payable in Dollars, the Base Rate
         plus two percent (2.00%), such rate to change from time to time as the
         Base Rate shall change, and (ii) in the case of any amount payable in
         an Alternative Currency, the Overnight Rate for such amount plus three
         percent (3.00%), such rate to change from time to time as the Overnight
         Rate shall change.

                  (e)      Application of Payments. All payments hereunder shall
         be applied first to unpaid fees, costs and expenses then due and
         payable under this Agreement or the other Credit Documents, second to
         accrued interest then due and payable under this Agreement or the other
         Credit Documents and finally to reduce the principal amount of
         outstanding Loans and unpaid Reimbursement Obligations.

                  (f)      Failure to Pay Agent. Unless Agent shall have
         received notice from a Borrower at least one (1) Business Day prior to
         the date on which any payment is due to Lenders hereunder that such
         Borrower will not make such payment in full, Agent shall be entitled to
         assume that such Borrower has made or will make such payment in full to
         Agent on such date and Agent may, in reliance upon such


                                       29
<PAGE>
         assumption, cause to be paid to the applicable Lenders on such due date
         an amount equal to the amount then due such Lenders. If and to the
         extent such Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to
         Agent, each such Lender shall repay to Agent forthwith on demand such
         amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for
         each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until
         the date such Lender repays such amount to Agent, at a per annum rate
         equal to (i) the Federal Funds Rate for the first three (3) days and
         the Base Rate thereafter for any amount in Dollars or (ii) the
         Overnight Rate for the first three (3) days and the Overnight Rate plus
         one percent (1%) thereafter for any amount in an Alternative Currency.
         A certificate of Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any
         amount owing by such Lender under this Subparagraph 2.08(f) shall
         constitute prima facie evidence of such amount.

         2.09.    Loan Accounts; Notes.

                  (a)      Loan Accounts. The obligation of each Borrower to
         repay the Loans made to it by each Lender and to pay interest thereon
         at the rates provided herein shall be evidenced by an account or
         accounts maintained by such Lender on its books (individually, a "Loan
         Account"), except that any Lender may request that its Loans be
         evidenced by a note or notes pursuant to Subparagraph 2.09(b). Each
         Lender shall record in its Loan Accounts (i) the date, amount and
         currency of each Loan made by such Lender, (ii) the interest rates
         applicable to each such Loan thereof and the effective dates of all
         changes thereto, (iii) the Interest Period for each LIBOR Loan, (iv)
         the date, amount and currency of each principal and interest payment on
         each Loan and (v) such other information as such Lender may determine
         is necessary for the computation of principal and interest payable to
         it by each Borrower hereunder; provided, however, that any failure by a
         Lender to make, or any error by any Lender in making, any such notation
         shall not affect Borrowers' Obligations hereunder. The Loan Accounts
         shall constitute prima facie evidence of the matters noted therein.

                  (b)      Notes. If any Lender so requests, such Lender's Loans
         under each Facility shall be evidenced by promissory notes in the form
         of Exhibit B (individually, a "Note"), which shall be (i) payable to
         the order of such Lender, (ii) dated the Closing Date, and (iii)
         otherwise appropriately completed.

         2.10.    Loan Funding.

                  (a)      Lender Funding and Disbursements to Borrowers. Each
         Lender shall, before 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date of each
         Borrowing, make available to Agent at Agent's New York office specified
         in Paragraph 8.01, in immediately available funds, such Lender's
         applicable Proportionate Share of such Borrowing. After Agent's receipt
         of such funds and upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set
         forth in Section III, Agent shall promptly disburse such funds to the
         applicable Borrower no later than 1:00 p.m. (California time) in
         immediately available funds. Agent shall disburse the proceeds of each
         Borrowing as directed by the applicable Borrower in the applicable
         Notice of Borrowing.

                  (b)      Lender Failure to Fund. Unless Agent shall have
         received notice from a Lender prior to the date of a Borrowing that
         such Lender will not make available to Agent such Lender's applicable
         Proportionate Share of such Borrowing, Agent shall be entitled to
         assume that such Lender has made or will make such amount available to
         Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with Subparagraph
         2.08(a), and Agent may on such date, in reliance upon such assumption,
         disburse or otherwise credit to the applicable Borrower a corresponding
         amount. If any Lender does not make the amount of its applicable
         Proportionate Share of a Borrowing available to Agent on or prior to
         the date of such Borrowing, such Lender shall pay to Agent, on demand,
         interest which shall accrue on such amount from the date of such
         Borrowing until such amount is paid to Agent at rates equal to (i) the
         Federal Funds Rate for the first three (3) days and the Base Rate
         thereafter for any amount in Dollars or (ii) the Overnight Rate plus
         one percent (1%) for any amount in an Alternative Currency. A
         certificate of Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amount
         owing by such Lender under this Subparagraph 2.08(b) shall constitute
         prima facie evidence of such amount. If the amount of any Lender's
         applicable Proportionate Share of any Borrowing is not paid to Agent by
         such Lender within three (3) Business Days after the date of such
         Borrowing, the applicable Borrower shall repay such amount to Agent, on
         demand, together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such
         amount was disbursed to such Borrower until the date such amount is
         repaid to Agent, at the interest rate applicable at the time to the
         Loans comprising such Borrowing.

<PAGE>
                  (c)      Lenders' Obligations Several. The failure of any
         Lender to make the Loan to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall
         not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make its
         Loan as part of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be obligated in any
         way to make any Loan which another Lender has failed or refused to make
         or otherwise be in any way responsible for the failure or refusal of
         any other Lender to make any Loan required to be made by such other
         Lender.

         2.11.    Pro Rata Treatment.

                  (a)      Borrowings, Commitment Reductions, Etc. Except as
         otherwise provided herein:

                           (i)      Each Borrowing under Facility A, each
                  participation in each Letter of Credit and reduction of the
                  Total Facility A Commitment shall be made or shared among
                  Facility A Lenders pro rata according to their respective
                  Facility A Proportionate Shares;

                           (ii)     Each Borrowing under Facility B and
                  reduction of the Total Facility B Commitments shall be made or
                  shared among Facility B Lenders pro rata according to their
                  respective Facility B Proportionate Shares;

                           (iii)    Each payment of principal on Loans in any
                  Borrowing shall be shared among Lenders which made or funded
                  the Loans in such Borrowing pro rata according to the
                  respective unpaid principal amounts of such Loans then owed to
                  such Lenders;

                           (iv)     Each payment of interest on Loans in any
                  Borrowing shall be shared among Lenders which made or funded
                  the Loans in such Borrowing pro rata according to (A) the
                  respective unpaid principal amounts of such Loans then owed to
                  such Lenders so made or funded by such Lenders and (B) the
                  dates on which such Lenders so made or funded such Loans;

                           (v)      Each Reimbursement Payment shall be shared
                  among the Facility A Lenders (including Issuing Bank) which
                  made or funded the applicable Drawing Payment pro rata
                  according to the respective amounts of such Drawing Payment so
                  made or funded by such Lenders;

                           (vi)     Each payment of Facility A Commitment Fees
                  and LC Usage Fees shall be shared among Facility A Lenders
                  (except for Defaulting Lenders but including, with respect to
                  LC Usage Fees, Issuing Bank in its capacity as a Lender) pro
                  rata according to (A) their respective Facility A
                  Proportionate Shares and (B) in the case of each Facility A
                  Lender which becomes a Facility A Lender hereunder after the
                  date hereof and before the Facility A Maturity Date, the date
                  upon which such Facility A Lender so became a Facility A
                  Lender;

                           (vii)    Each payment of Facility B Commitment Fees
                  shall be shared among Facility B Lenders (except for
                  Defaulting Lenders) pro rata according to (A) their respective
                  Facility B Proportionate Shares and (B) in the case of each
                  Facility B Lender which becomes a Facility B Lender hereunder
                  after the date hereof and before the Facility B Maturity Date,
                  the date upon which such Facility B Lender so became a
                  Facility B Lender;

                           (viii)   Each payment of interest (other than
                  interest on Loans) shall be shared among Lenders and Agent
                  owed the amount upon which such interest accrues pro rata
                  according to (A) the respective amounts so owed such Lenders
                  and Agent and (B) the dates on which such amounts became owing
                  to such Lenders and Agent; and

                           (ix)     All other payments under this Agreement and
                  the other Credit Documents shall be for the benefit of the
                  Person or Persons specified.

                  (b)      Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall obtain
         any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of
         any right of setoff, or otherwise) on account of the Loan owed to it as


                                       31






<PAGE>
      part of any Borrowing in excess of its ratable share of payments on
      account of all Loans in such Borrowing obtained by all applicable Lenders
      entitled to such payments (or, with respect to the Facility A Lenders,
      Reimbursement Obligations) such Lender shall forthwith purchase from such
      other Lenders such participations in their Loans (or, with respect to the
      Facility A Lenders, Reimbursement Obligations) as shall be necessary to
      cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each
      of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess
      payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase
      shall be rescinded and each other applicable Lender shall repay to the
      purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery
      together with an amount equal to such other Lender's ratable share
      (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such other Lender's
      required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the
      purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the
      purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. Each
      Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another
      Lender pursuant to this Subparagraph 2.11 (b) may, to the fullest extent
      permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right
      of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender
      were the direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such
      participation.

      2.12. Change of Circumstances.

            (a) Inability to Obtain Funds, Determine Rates, Etc. If, on or
      before the first day of any Interest Period for any LIBOR Borrowing in any
      currency, Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive
      and binding upon Borrowers absent manifest error) that (i) funds in the
      currency of such Borrowing are not readily available in the amounts
      necessary for such Borrowing in the London interbank market, (ii) the LIBO
      Rate for such Interest Period cannot be adequately and reasonably
      determined due to other circumstances affecting the London interbank
      market, or (iii) the rate of interest for such Borrowing does not
      adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lenders of making or maintaining
      such Borrowing, Agent shall immediately give notice of such condition to
      the applicable Borrowers and the applicable Lenders. After the giving of
      any such notice and until Agent shall otherwise notify the applicable
      Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such condition no longer
      exist, such Borrowers' right to obtain, continue or convert to Borrowings
      in the affected currency shall be suspended. Any LIBOR Borrowings in the
      affected currency outstanding at the commencement of any such suspension
      shall be repaid at the end of the then current Interest Period for such
      Borrowings unless such suspension has then ended.

            (b) Illegality. If, after the date of this Agreement, the adoption
      of any Governmental Rule, any change in any Governmental Rule or the
      application or requirements thereof (whether such change occurs in
      accordance with the terms of such Governmental Rule as enacted, as a
      result of amendment or otherwise), any change in the interpretation or
      administration of any Governmental Rule by any Governmental Authority, or
      compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not
      having the force of law) of any Governmental Authority (a "Change of Law")
      shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Lender to make or maintain
      any LIBOR Loan in any currency, such Lender shall immediately notify Agent
      and the applicable Borrower of such Change of Law. Upon receipt of such
      notice, (i) such Borrower's right to obtain, continue or convert to LIBOR
      Loans in the affected currency shall be suspended until such time as Agent
      shall notify such Borrower and the applicable Lenders that the
      circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, and (ii)
      such Borrower shall, if so requested by such Lender, immediately repay
      such LIBOR Loans in the affected currency if such Lender shall notify such
      Borrower that such Lender may not lawfully continue to fund and maintain
      such LIBOR Loans . Any prepayment of LIBOR Loans made pursuant to the
      preceding sentence prior to the last day of an Interest Period for such
      LIBOR Loans shall be deemed a prepayment thereof for purposes of Paragraph
      2.14.

            (c) Increased Costs. If, after the date of this Agreement, any
      Change of Law:

                  (i) Shall subject any Lender to any tax, duty or other charge
            with respect to any LIBOR Loan, or shall change the basis of
            taxation of payments by any Borrower to any such Lender on such a
            LIBOR Loan, or in respect to such a LIBOR Loan, under this Agreement
            (except for changes in the rate of taxation on the overall net
            income of such Lender imposed by its jurisdiction of incorporation,
            the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office, or a jurisdiction
            in


                                       32
<PAGE>
            which such Participant is doing business without regard to the
            transactions contemplated by this Agreement); or

                  (ii) Shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve
            (excluding any Reserve Requirement or other reserve to the extent
            included in the calculation of the LIBO Rate for any Loans), special
            deposit or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or
            other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or
            any other acquisition of funds by any Lender for any LIBOR Loan; or

                  (iii) Shall impose on any Lender any other condition related
            to any LIBOR Loan, any Letter of Credit or such Lender's
            Commitments;

      And the effect of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such
      Lender of making, continuing or maintaining any such LIBOR Loan, any
      Letter of Credit or its Commitments or to reduce any amount receivable by
      such Lender hereunder; then Borrowers shall from time to time, within ten
      (10) Business Days after demand by such Lender, pay to such Lender
      additional amounts sufficient to reimburse such Lender for such increased
      costs or to compensate such Lender for such reduced amounts; provided,
      however, that Borrowers shall have no obligation to make any payment to
      any demanding party under this Subparagraph 2.10(c) on account of any such
      increased costs or reduced amounts unless Borrowers receive notice of such
      increased costs or reduced amounts from the demanding party within twelve
      (12) months after such increased costs or reduced amounts have been
      incurred or realized accompanied by a certificate executed by an officer
      of the applicable Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and
      calculation of the amount of such increased costs or reduced amounts,
      which certificate shall constitute prima facie evidence of such costs or
      amounts. The obligations of Borrowers under this Subparagraph 2.12(c)
      shall survive the payment and performance of the Obligations and the
      termination of this Agreement.

            (d) Capital Requirements. If, after the date of this Agreement, any
      Lender determines that (i) any Change of Law affects the amount of capital
      required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any Person
      controlling such Lender (a "Capital Adequacy Requirement") and (ii) the
      amount of capital maintained by such Lender or such Person which is
      attributable to or based upon the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the
      Commitments or this Agreement must be increased as a result of such
      Capital Adequacy Requirement (taking into account such Lender's or such
      Person's policies with respect to capital adequacy), Borrowers shall pay
      to such Lender or such Person, within ten (10) Business Days after demand
      of such Lender, such amounts as such Lender or such Person shall determine
      are necessary to compensate such Lender or such Person for the increased
      costs to such Lender or such Person of such increased capital; provided,
      however, that Borrowers shall have no obligation to make any payment to
      any demanding party under this Subparagraph 2.12(d) on account of any such
      increased costs unless Borrowers receive notice of such increased costs
      from the demanding party within twelve (12) months after such increased
      costs been incurred or realized accompanied by a certificate executed by
      an officer of the applicable Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the
      basis and calculation of the amount of such increased costs, which
      certificate shall constitute prima facie evidence of such costs. The
      obligations of Borrowers under this Subparagraph 2.12(d) shall survive the
      payment and performance of the Obligations and the termination of this
      Agreement.

            (e) Mitigation. Any Lender which becomes aware of (i) any Change of
      Law which will make it unlawful or impossible for such Lender to make or
      maintain any LIBOR Loan or (ii) any Change of Law or other event or
      condition which will obligate Borrowers to pay any amount pursuant to
      Subparagraph 2.12(c) or Subparagraph 2.12(d) shall notify Borrowers and
      Agent thereof as promptly as practical. If any Lender has given notice of
      any such Change of Law or other event or condition and thereafter becomes
      aware that such Change of Law or other event or condition has ceased to
      exist, such Lender shall notify Borrowers and Agent thereof as promptly as
      practical. Each Lender affected by any Change of Law which makes it
      unlawful or impossible for such Lender to make or maintain any LIBOR Loan
      or to which Borrowers are obligated to pay any amount pursuant to
      Subparagraph 2.12(c) or Subparagraph 2.12(d) shall use reasonable
      commercial efforts (including changing the jurisdiction of its Applicable
      Lending Offices) to avoid the effect of such Change of Law or to avoid or
      materially reduce any amounts which Borrowers are obligated to pay
      pursuant to Subparagraph 2.12(c) or Subparagraph 2.12(d)


                                       33
<PAGE>
      if, in the reasonable opinion of such Lender, such efforts would not be
      disadvantageous to such Lender or contrary to such Lender's normal banking
      practices.

      2.13. Taxes on Payments.

            (a) Payments Free of Taxes. All payments made by Borrowers under
      this Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall be made free and clear
      of, and, except as provided herein, without deduction or withholding for
      or on account of, Non-Excluded Taxes. If any Non-Excluded Taxes are
      required to be withheld from any amounts payable to Agent or any Lender
      hereunder or under the other Credit Documents, the amounts so payable to
      Agent or such Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield
      to Agent or such Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes) interest
      or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts
      specified in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. Whenever any
      Non-Excluded Taxes are payable by Borrowers, as promptly as possible
      thereafter, Borrowers shall send to Agent for its own account or for the
      account of such Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an
      original official receipt received by Borrowers showing payment thereof.
      If Borrowers fail to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes when due to the
      appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to Agent the required
      receipts or other required documentary evidence, Borrowers shall indemnify
      Agent and Lenders for any taxes (including interest or penalties) that may
      become payable by Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure. The
      obligations of Borrowers under this Paragraph 2.13 (i) shall be subject to
      the mitigation provisions contained in Paragraph 8.03 and (ii) shall
      survive the payment and performance of the Obligations and the termination
      of this Agreement.

            (b) Withholding Exemption Certificates. Each Borrower may from time
      to time, by written notice to the Agent and each Lender, designate an
      office from which payments under this Agreement shall be made (an
      "Applicable Payment Office"). FIL's Applicable Payment Office shall be
      deemed to be in Hong Kong unless otherwise designated in writing by FIL.
      If a Borrower other than FIL does not designate an Applicable Payment
      Office, such Borrower's Applicable Payment Office shall be deemed to be
      located in the jurisdiction in which such Borrower is organized. On or
      prior to the Closing Date (or, with respect to any Lender which is not a
      party to this Agreement on the Closing Date, on or prior to the date any
      other Lender becomes a Lender hereunder), each Lender which is not
      organized under the laws of the jurisdiction of a Borrower's Applicable
      Payment Office shall notify the applicable Borrower whether such Lender is
      entitled to receive payments on its Loans under this Agreement from such
      Borrower's Applicable Payment Office for the account of such Lender's
      Lending Office without deduction or withholding of any income taxes (or
      with reduced deduction or withholding of any such taxes) imposed by the
      jurisdiction of such Borrower's Applicable Payment Office and promptly
      deliver to such Borrower such certificates and other evidence as such
      Borrower shall reasonably request to establish such fact. If, after the
      Closing Date, any Borrower designates an Applicable Payment Office that is
      different than such Borrower's then existing Applicable Payment Office,
      each Lender which is not organized under the laws of the jurisdiction of
      such new Applicable Payment Office shall, as soon as practicable and in
      any event within thirty (30) days of such designation (or if not
      practicable within such period, then as soon as practicable thereafter but
      in any event within a period of sixty (60) days of such designation),
      notify the applicable Borrower whether such Lender is entitled to receive
      payments on its Loans under this Agreement from such Borrower's new
      Applicable Payment Office for the account of such Lender's Lending Office
      without deduction or withholding of any income taxes (or with reduced
      deduction or withholding of any such taxes) imposed by the jurisdiction of
      such Borrower's new Applicable Payment Office and promptly deliver to such
      Borrower such certificates and other evidence as such Borrower shall
      reasonably request to establish such fact. Each such Lender further agrees
      (A) promptly to notify the applicable Borrowers and Agent of any change of
      circumstances (including any change in any treaty, law or regulation or
      any change of such Lender's Applicable Lending Office) which would prevent
      such Lender from receiving such payments hereunder without any deduction
      or withholding of such taxes (or with reduced deduction or withholding of
      any such taxes) and (B) if such Lender is still legally entitled to do so,
      then on or before the date that any certificate or other form delivered by
      such Lender under this Subparagraph 2.13(b) expires, to deliver to such
      Borrowers and Agent a new certificate or form, certifying that such Lender
      is entitled to receive such payments under this Agreement without
      deduction or withholding of such taxes (or with reduced deduction or
      withholding of any such taxes). If any Lender fails to provide to Agent
      and the applicable Borrower pursuant to this Subparagraph 2.13(b) (or, in
      the case of an Assignee Participant, Subparagraph 8.05(b))


                                       34
<PAGE>
      any notifications, certificates or other evidence required by such
      provision, such Lender shall not be entitled to any indemnification under
      Subparagraph 2.13(a) for any Non-Excluded Taxes imposed on such Lender
      primarily as a result of such failure.

            (c) Mitigation. If Agent or any Lender claims any additional amounts
      to be payable to it pursuant to this Paragraph 2.13, such Person shall
      file (or, with respect to any claim made by any Lender then a party to
      this Agreement as a result of the designation of a new Applicable Payment
      Office by any Borrower, such Person shall use reasonable commercial
      efforts to file) any certificate or document requested in writing by the
      applicable Borrower reflecting a reduced rate of withholding or to change
      the jurisdiction of an Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a
      filing or such change in the jurisdiction of an Applicable Lending Office
      would avoid the need for or materially reduce the amount of any such
      additional amounts which may thereafter accrue and if, in the reasonable
      opinion of such Person, in the case of a change in the jurisdiction of an
      Applicable Lending Office, such change would not be disadvantageous to
      such Person or contrary to such Person's normal banking practices.

            (d) Tax Returns. Nothing contained in this Paragraph 2.13 shall
      require Agent or any Lender to make available any of its tax returns (or
      any other information relating to its taxes which it deems to be
      confidential).

            (e) Lender Rate Contracts. Nothing contained in this Paragraph 2.13
      shall override or supercede any term or provision of any Lender Rate
      Contract regarding withholding taxes relating to Rate Contracts.

      2.14. Funding Loss Indemnification. If any of the Borrowers shall (a)
repay, prepay or convert any LIBOR Loan on any day other than the last day of an
Interest Period therefor (whether a scheduled payment, an optional prepayment or
conversion, a mandatory prepayment or conversion, a payment upon acceleration or
otherwise), (b) fail to borrow any LIBOR Loan after delivering the Notice of
Borrowing therefor to Agent (whether as a result of the failure to satisfy any
applicable conditions or otherwise) or (c) fail to pay when due any principal or
interest on any LIBOR Loan, such Borrower shall, within ten (10) Business Days
after demand of such Lender, reimburse such Lender for and hold such Lender
harmless from all reasonable break funding costs and losses incurred by such
Lender as a result of such repayment, prepayment, conversion or failure;
provided, however, that Borrowers shall have no obligation to make any payment
to any demanding party under this Paragraph 2.14 on account of any such costs or
losses unless Borrowers receive notice of such costs or losses from the
demanding party within twelve (12) months after such costs or losses have been
incurred or realized. Borrowers understand that such costs and losses may
include, without limitation, losses incurred by a Lender as a result of funding
and other contracts entered into by such Lender to fund a LIBOR Loan. Each
Lender demanding payment under this Paragraph 2.14 shall deliver to Borrowers,
with a copy to Agent, a certificate of an officer of such demanding party
setting forth the amount of costs and losses for which demand is made, which
certificate shall set forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount
demanded. Such a certificate so delivered to Borrowers shall constitute prima
facie evidence of such costs and losses. The obligations of Borrowers under this
Paragraph 2.14 shall survive the payment and performance of the Obligations and
the termination of this Agreement.

      2.15. Security.

            (a) Guaranties, Etc. The Obligations shall be secured by a Guaranty
      in the form of Exhibit C (the "Guaranty"), duly executed all Eligible
      Material Subsidiaries and other Subsidiaries of FIL that have executed the
      Guaranty or otherwise elected to become a party thereto, with such changes
      thereto as may be appropriate based on the law of the applicable
      jurisdictions. In addition, as soon as practicable and in any event within
      forty-five (45) days of the Closing Date, FIL shall deliver, or cause to
      be delivered, to Agent, (A) a Subsidiary Joinder in the form of Attachment
      1 to the Guaranty, appropriately completed and duly executed by each of
      (i) FLX Cyprus Limited, (ii) Flextronics (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd and (iii) IEC
      Holdings Ltd., (B) favorable written opinions, addressed to Agent for the
      benefit of the Lenders, covering such legal matters as Agent and the
      Lenders may reasonably request and otherwise in form and substance
      satisfactory to Agent and the Lenders, from counsel for each of the
      above-referenced Subsidiaries and (C) such other instruments, agreements,
      certificates and documents as Agent may reasonably request to secure,
      maintain, protect and evidence the obligations of such Subsidiary under
      the Guaranty.


                                       35
<PAGE>
            (b) Changes in Material Subsidiaries.

                  (i) If, at any time after the date of this Agreement, any
            Subsidiary of FIL that is not a Guarantor under the Guaranty shall
            become an Eligible Material Subsidiary, FIL promptly shall deliver,
            or cause to be delivered, to Agent, within sixty (60) days of
            becoming aware of any such event, (A) a Subsidiary Joinder in the
            form of Attachment 1 to the Guaranty, appropriately completed and
            duly executed by such Subsidiary, and (B) such other instruments,
            agreements, certificates, opinions and documents as Agent may
            reasonably request to secure, maintain, protect and evidence the
            obligations of such Subsidiary under the Guaranty.

                  (ii) If, at any time after the date of this Agreement, any
            Subsidiary of FIL that is a Guarantor under the Guaranty shall cease
            to be, or shall not have become, an Eligible Material Subsidiary,
            Agent shall if requested by FIL release such Subsidiary from its
            obligations under the Guaranty.

            (c) Further Assurances. Borrowers shall deliver, and shall cause the
      Guarantors to deliver, to Agent such other guaranties, guaranty
      supplements and other instruments, agreements, certificates, opinions and
      documents as Agent and any Lender may reasonably request to implement the
      provisions of Subparagraph 2.15(a) and otherwise to establish, maintain,
      protect and evidence the rights provided to Agent, for the benefit of
      Agents and Lenders, pursuant to the Security Documents. Borrowers shall
      fully cooperate with Agent and Lenders and perform all additional acts
      reasonably requested by Agent or any Lender to effect the purposes of this
      Paragraph 2.15. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, FIL
      covenants and agrees that it will ensure that the aggregate revenues of
      the Subsidiaries that have executed and delivered the Guaranty pursuant to
      this Agreement and the FIUI Credit Agreement for each year will equal or
      exceed 53% of the consolidated total revenues of FIL and all of its
      Subsidiaries as reflected for such year in FIL's annual audited Financial
      Statements.

      2.16. Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender shall (a) become a Defaulting
Lender more than one (1) time in a period of twelve (12) consecutive months, (b)
continue as a Defaulting Lender for more than three (3) Business Days at any
time, (c) suspend its obligation to make or maintain LIBOR Loans in any currency
pursuant to Subparagraph 2.12(b) for a reason which is not applicable to any
other Lender or (d) demand any payment under Subparagraph 2.12(a), 2.12(c) or
2.12(d) for a reason which is not applicable to any other Lender, then Agent may
(or upon the written request of Borrowers, shall) replace such Lender (the
"affected Lender"), or cause such affected Lender to be replaced, with another
lender (the "replacement Lender") satisfying the requirements of an Assignee
Lender under Subparagraph 8.05(c), by having the affected Lender sell and assign
all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit
Documents to the replacement Lender pursuant to Subparagraph 8.05(c); provided,
however, that if Borrowers seek to exercise such right, they must do so within
sixty (60) days after any Borrower first knows or should have known of the
occurrence of the event or events giving rise to such right, and neither Agent
nor any Lender shall have any obligation to identify or locate a replacement
Lender for Borrowers; and provided, further, that no Lender shall be replaced
under this Agreement unless such Lender is also replaced under the FIUI Credit
Agreement. Upon receipt by any affected Lender of a written notice from Agent
stating that Agent is exercising the replacement right set forth in this
Paragraph 2.16, such affected Lender shall sell and assign all of its rights and
obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents to the
replacement Lender pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption and Subparagraph
8.05(c) for a purchase price equal to the sum of the principal amount of the
affected Lender's Loans so sold and assigned, all accrued and unpaid interest
thereon and its ratable share of all fees to which it is entitled.

SECTION III.   CONDITIONS PRECEDENT.

      3.01. Initial Conditions Precedent. The obligations of the applicable
Lenders to make the Loans comprising the initial Borrowing and of Issuing Bank
to issue the initial Letter of Credit are subject to receipt by Agent, on or
prior to the Closing Date, of each item listed in Schedule 3.01, each in form
and substance satisfactory to Agent and each Lender, and with sufficient copies
for, Agent and each Lender.

      3.02. Conditions Precedent to Each Credit Event. The occurrence of each
Credit Event (including the initial Borrowing and the issuance of the initial
Letter of Credit) is subject to the further conditions that:


                                       36
<PAGE>
            (a) Borrowers shall have delivered to Agent (and Issuing Bank, in
      the case of an LC Application) the Notice of Borrowing, Notice of Interest
      Period Selection or LC Application, as the case may be, for such Credit
      Event in accordance with this Agreement; and

            (b) With respect to each Credit Event involving the making of a Loan
      or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, on the date such Credit Event is to
      occur and after giving effect to such Credit Event, the following shall be
      true and correct:

                  (i) The representations and warranties of Borrowers and their
            Subsidiaries set forth in Paragraph 4.01 and in the other Credit
            Documents are true and correct in all material respects as if made
            on such date (except for representations and warranties expressly
            made as of a specified date, which shall be true as of such date);
            and

                  (ii) No Default has occurred and is continuing or will result
            from such Credit Event.

The submission by any of the Borrowers to Agent of each Notice of Borrowing and
each LC Application shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by such
Borrower that each of the statements set forth above in this Subparagraph
3.03(b) is true and correct as of the date of such notice.

      3.03. Covenant to Deliver. Borrowers agree (not as a condition but as a
covenant) to deliver to Agent (as applicable) each item required to be delivered
to Agent as a condition to the occurrence of any Credit Event if such Credit
Event occurs. Borrowers expressly agree that the occurrence of any such Credit
Event prior to the receipt by Agent of any such item (and Issuing Bank, in the
case of an LC Application) shall not constitute a waiver by Agent or any Lender
of Borrowers' obligation to deliver such item.

      3.04. Conditions Precedent to Adding Designated Borrower. The obligations
of the applicable Lenders to make Loans to any Designated Borrower or issue any
Letters of Credit on behalf of any Designated Borrower are subject to, on or
prior to the date of such designation, the following: (a) receipt by Agent of
each item listed in Schedule 3.01 with respect to such Designated Borrower, each
in form and substance satisfactory to Agent and each Lender, and with sufficient
copies for, Agent and each Lender, (b) execution of an amendment to this
Agreement by each of the parties hereto, whereby Designated Borrower shall agree
to be bound by all of the terms herein and shall designate its initial
Applicable Payment Office, (c) written approval by all Lenders and Guarantors
party to this Agreement and any of the Credit Documents as to the designation of
the Designated Borrower, and (d) execution by Designated Borrower and FIL of a
Subsidiary Joinder to the Guaranty, substantially in the form of Attachment 1 to
Exhibit C hereto.

SECTION IV. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

      4.01. Borrowers' Representations and Warranties. In order to induce Agent
and Lenders to enter into this Agreement, Borrowers hereby represent and warrant
to Agent and Lenders as follows:

            (a) Due Incorporation, Qualification, etc. Each of Borrowers and
      their Subsidiaries (i) is a corporation duly organized, validly existing
      and, in any jurisdiction in which such legal concept is applicable, in
      good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization; (ii) has
      the power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and carry
      on its business as now conducted; and (iii) is duly qualified and licensed
      to do business as a foreign corporation or branch in each jurisdiction
      where the failure to be so qualified or licensed is reasonably and
      substantially likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

            (b) Authority. The execution, delivery and performance by each of
      the Borrowers and each Guarantor of each Credit Document executed, or to
      be executed, by such Person and the consummation of the transactions
      contemplated thereby (i) are within the power of such Person and (ii) have
      been duly authorized by all necessary actions on the part of such Person.


                                       37
<PAGE>
            (c) Enforceability. Each Credit Document executed, or to be
      executed, by each of the Borrowers and each Guarantor has been, or will
      be, duly executed and delivered by such Person and constitutes, or will
      constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Person,
      enforceable against such Person in accordance with its terms, except as
      limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws of general application
      relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally
      and general principles of equity.

            (d) Non-Contravention. The execution and delivery by each of
      Borrowers and each Guarantor of the Credit Documents executed by such
      Person and the performance and consummation of the transactions
      contemplated thereby do not (i) violate any Requirement of Law applicable
      to such Person; (ii) violate any provision of, or result in the breach or
      the acceleration of, or entitle any other Person to accelerate (whether
      after the giving of notice or lapse of time or both), any Contractual
      Obligation of such Person; or (iii) result in the creation or imposition
      of any Lien (or the obligation to create or impose any Lien) upon any
      property, asset or revenue of such Person.

            (e) Approvals. No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or
      registration, declaration or filing with, any Governmental Authority or
      other Person (including the shareholders of any Person) is required in
      connection with the execution and delivery of the Credit Documents
      executed by each of the Borrowers and each Guarantor and the performance
      or consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, except such as
      (i) have been made or obtained and are in full force and effect or (ii)
      are being made or obtained in a timely manner and once made or obtained
      will be in full force and effect.

            (f) No Violation or Default. Neither any Borrower, nor any Guarantor
      nor any of FIL's Subsidiaries is in violation of or in default with
      respect to (i) any Requirement of Law applicable to such Person or (ii)
      any Contractual Obligation of such Person, where, in each case, such
      violation or default is reasonably or substantially likely to have a
      Material Adverse Effect. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
      neither any Borrower, nor any Guarantor nor any of FIL's Subsidiaries (A)
      has violated any Environmental Laws, (B) to the knowledge of any Borrower,
      any Guarantor or any of FIL's Subsidiaries, has any liability under any
      Environmental Laws or (C) has received notice or other communication of an
      investigation or, to the knowledge of any Borrower, any Guarantor or any
      of FIL's Subsidiaries, is under investigation by any Governmental
      Authority having authority to enforce Environmental Laws, where such
      violation, liability or investigation is reasonably and substantially
      likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Default has occurred and is
      continuing.

            (g) Litigation. No actions (including derivative actions), suits,
      proceedings or investigations are pending or, to the knowledge of any
      Borrower, threatened against any Borrower, any Guarantor or any of FIL's
      Subsidiaries at law or in equity in any court or before any other
      Governmental Authority which (i) based upon the written advice of such
      Person's outside legal counsel, is reasonably likely to be determined
      adversely and if so adversely determined is reasonably and substantially
      likely (alone or in the aggregate) to have a Material Adverse Effect or
      (ii) seeks to enjoin, either directly or indirectly, the execution,
      delivery or performance by any Borrower or any Guarantor of the Credit
      Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby.

            (h) Title; Possession Under Leases. Each Borrower, each Guarantor
      and each of FIL's Subsidiaries own and have good and indefeasible title,
      or a valid leasehold interest in, all their respective material properties
      and assets as reflected in the most recent Financial Statements delivered
      to Agent (except those assets and properties disposed of in the ordinary
      course of business or otherwise in compliance with this Agreement since
      the date of such Financial Statements) and all respective material assets
      and properties acquired by such Borrower, each Guarantor and FIL's
      Subsidiaries since such date (except those disposed of in the ordinary
      course of business or otherwise in compliance with this Agreement). Such
      assets and properties are subject to no Lien, except for Permitted Liens.

            (i) Financial Statements. The Financial Statements of FIL and its
      Subsidiaries which have been delivered to Agent, (i) are in accordance
      with the books and records of FIL and its Subsidiaries, which have been
      maintained in accordance with good business practice; (ii) have been
      prepared in conformity with GAAP; and (iii) fairly present in all material
      respects the financial conditions and results of operations


                                       38
<PAGE>
      of FIL and its Subsidiaries as of the date thereof and for the period
      covered thereby. Neither FIL nor any of its Subsidiaries has any
      Contingent Obligations, liability for taxes or other outstanding
      obligations which are material in the aggregate, except as disclosed or
      reflected in the Financial Statements of FIL dated December 31, 2001,
      furnished by FIL to Agent prior to the date hereof, or in the Financial
      Statements delivered to Agent pursuant to (i) or (ii) of Subparagraph
      5.01(a), or except as permitted under Section V of this Agreement.

            (j) Employee Benefit Plans.

                  (i) Based on the latest valuation of each Employee Benefit
            Plan that any Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate maintains or
            contributes to, or has any obligation under (which occurred within
            twelve months of the date of this representation), the aggregate
            benefit liabilities of such plan within the meaning of Section 4001
            of ERISA did not materially exceed the aggregate value of the assets
            of such plan. Neither any Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has any
            material liability with respect to any post-retirement benefit under
            any Employee Benefit Plan which is a welfare plan (as defined in
            section 3(1) of ERISA), other than liability for health plan
            continuation coverage described in Part 6 of Title I(B) of ERISA,
            which liability for health plan contribution coverage is not
            reasonably and substantially likely to have a Material Adverse
            Effect.

                  (ii) Each Employee Benefit Plan complies, in both form and
            operation, in all material respects, with its terms, ERISA and the
            IRC, and no condition exists or event has occurred with respect to
            any such plan which would result in the incurrence by any Borrower
            or any ERISA Affiliate of any material liability, fine or penalty.
            Each Employee Benefit Plan, related trust agreement, arrangement and
            commitment of any Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate is legally valid
            and binding and is in all material respects in full force and
            effect. No Employee Benefit Plan is being audited or investigated by
            any government agency or is subject to any pending or threatened
            claim or suit. Neither any Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate nor, to
            the knowledge or any Borrower, any fiduciary of any Employee Benefit
            Plan has engaged in a prohibited transaction under section 406 of
            ERISA or section 4975 of the IRC.

                  (iii) Neither any Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate contributes
            to or has any material contingent obligations to any Multiemployer
            Plan. Neither any Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred any
            material liability (including secondary liability) to any
            Multiemployer Plan as a result of a complete or partial withdrawal
            from such Multiemployer Plan under Section 4201 of ERISA or as a
            result of a sale of assets described in Section 4204 of ERISA.
            Neither any Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has been notified that
            any Multiemployer Plan is in reorganization or insolvent under and
            within the meaning of Section 4241 or Section 4245 of ERISA or that
            any Multiemployer Plan intends to terminate or has been terminated
            under Section 4041A of ERISA.

                  (iv) All employer and employee contributions required by any
            applicable Governmental Rule in connection with all Foreign Plans
            have been made, or, if applicable, accrued, in all material
            respects, in accordance with the country-specific accounting
            practices. The fair market value of the assets of each funded
            Foreign Plan, the liability of each insurer for any Foreign Plan
            funded through insurance or the book reserve established for any
            Foreign Plan, together with any accrued contributions, is
            sufficient, except to the extent that is not reasonably and
            substantially likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, to procure
            or provide for the accrued benefit obligations, as of the date
            hereof, with respect to all current and former participants in such
            Foreign Plan according to the actuarial assumptions and valuations
            most recently used to determine employer contributions to such
            Foreign Plan, which actuarial assumptions are commercially
            reasonable. Each Foreign Plan required to be registered has been
            registered and has been maintained in good standing with applicable
            Governmental Authorities except to the extent that is not reasonably
            and substantially likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each
            Foreign Plan reasonably complies in all material respects with all
            applicable Governmental Rules.

            (k) Other Regulations. No Borrower or any Material Subsidiary is
      subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Public
      Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, the Federal Power Act, the Interstate
      Commerce Act, any state public utilities code or any other Governmental
      Rule that limits its ability to incur Indebtedness.

            (l) Patent and Other Rights. Each Borrower and each of FIL's
      Subsidiaries own, license or otherwise have the full right to use, under
      validly existing agreements, without known conflict with any rights of
      others, all patents, licenses, trademarks, trade names, trade secrets,
      service marks, copyrights and all rights with respect thereto, which are
      required to conduct their businesses as now conducted, except such
      patents, licenses, trademarks, trade names, trade secrets, service marks,
      copyrights and all rights with respect thereto which if not validly owned
      or used would not be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

            (m) Governmental Charges. Each Borrower and each of FIL's
      Subsidiaries have filed or caused to be filed all material tax returns,
      reports and declarations which are required to be filed by them. Each
      Borrower and each of FIL's Subsidiaries have paid, or made provision for

      have become due pursuant to said returns or otherwise and all other
      indebtedness, except such Governmental Charges or indebtedness, if any,
      which are being contested in good faith and as to which adequate reserves
      (determined in accordance with GAAP) have been provided or which are not
      reasonably and substantially likely to have a Material Adverse Effect if
      unpaid.

            (n) Margin Stock. No Borrower owns any Margin Stock which, in the
      aggregate, would constitute a substantial part of the assets of such
      Borrower, and no proceeds of any Loan and no Letter of Credit will be used
      to purchase or carry, directly or indirectly, any Margin Stock or to
      extend credit, directly or indirectly, to any Person for the purpose of
      purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock.

            (o) Subsidiaries, Etc. Schedule 4.01(o) (on the Closing Date as of
      December 31, 2001 and as thereafter updated on a quarterly basis by

      sets forth each of FIL's Significant Subsidiaries, its jurisdiction of
      organization, the percentages of shares owned directly or indirectly by
      FIL and whether FIL owns such shares directly or, if not, the Subsidiary

      of this Agreement are Flextronics International USA, Inc., Flextronics
      International Latin America (L) Ltd., Flextronics International Sweden AB,
      Flextronics International Kft. and Flextronics Hungaria Kft. 1.

            (p) Solvency, Etc. Each of the Borrowers, each Guarantor and each

      the Credit Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
      thereby, will be Solvent.

            (q) Senior Debt. Borrowers have taken all actions necessary for the
      Obligations to constitute "Designated Senior Debt" for the purposes of and
      as defined in the Subordinated Indenture. Borrowers shall take all
      additional actions that may be necessary for the Obligations to continue
      at all times to constitute "Designated Senior Debt" or otherwise to be
      entitled to all the benefits of any senior debt under all Subordinated
      Indentures.

            (r) No Withholding, Etc. Except as otherwise disclosed by a Borrower
      to the Agent from time to time, no Borrower has actual knowledge of any
      requirement under any Governmental Rule to make any deduction or
      withholding of any nature whatsoever from any payment required to be made
      by any Borrowers hereunder or under any other Credit Document. Neither
      this Agreement nor any of the other Credit Documents is subject to any
      registration or stamp tax or any other similar or like taxes payable in
      any relevant jurisdiction.

            (s) Foreign Subsidiaries.

                  (i) No Immunities, etc. Each Foreign Subsidiary that is a
            Borrower or Guarantor is subject to civil and commercial law with
            respect to its obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit
            Documents, and the execution, delivery and performance by each such
            Foreign Subsidiary of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents
            constitute and will constitute private and commercial acts and not
            public or governmental acts. Neither such Foreign Subsidiary nor any
            of its property, whether or not held for its own account, has any
            immunity (sovereign or other similar immunity) from any suit or
            proceeding, from jurisdiction of any court or, if applicable in the
            relevant jurisdiction, from set-off or any legal process (whether
            service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid
            of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or other similar
            immunity) under laws of the jurisdiction in which such Foreign
            Subsidiary is organized and existing in respect of its obligations
            under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. Each such
            Foreign Subsidiary has waived every immunity (sovereign or
            otherwise) to which it or any of its properties would otherwise be
            entitled from any legal action, suit or proceeding, from
            jurisdiction of any court and from set-off or any legal process
            (whether service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment
            in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise)
            under the laws of the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Subsidiary
            is organized and existing in respect of its obligations under this
            Agreement and the other Credit Documents. The waiver by each such
            Foreign Subsidiary described in the immediately preceding sentence
            is the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Foreign
            Subsidiary.

                  (ii) No Recordation Necessary. This Agreement and each of the
            other Credit Documents executed by a Foreign Subsidiary is in proper
            legal form under the law of the jurisdiction in which such Foreign
            Subsidiary is organized and existing for the enforcement hereof or
            thereof against such Foreign Subsidiary under the law of such
            jurisdiction, and to ensure the legality, validity, enforceability,
            priority or admissibility in evidence of this Agreement and such
            other Credit Documents. It is not necessary to ensure the legality,
            validity, enforceability, priority or admissibility in evidence of
            this Agreement or any other Credit Document executed by a Foreign
            Subsidiary that this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any
            other document be filed, registered or recorded with, or executed or
            notarized before, any court or other authority in the jurisdiction
            in which such Foreign Subsidiary is organized and existing or that
            any registration charge or stamp or similar tax be paid on or in
            respect of this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any other
            document, except for any such filing, registration or recording, or
            execution or notarization, as has been made or is not required to be
            made until this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any other
            document is sought to be enforced and for any charge or tax as has
            been timely paid.

                  (iii) Exchange Controls. The execution, delivery and
            performance by each Borrower of this Agreement and each of the other
            Credit Documents executed by a Foreign Subsidiary is, under
            applicable foreign exchange control regulations of the jurisdiction
            in which each such Borrower or Foreign Subsidiary is organized and
            existing, not subject to any notification or authorization except
            (A) such as have been made or obtained or (B) such as cannot be made
            or obtained until a later date (provided any notification or
            authorization described in immediately preceding clause (A) shall be
            made or obtained as soon as is reasonably practicable).

            (t) No Material Adverse Effect. No event has occurred and no
      condition exists which is reasonably and substantially likely to have a
      Material Adverse Effect.

            (u) Accuracy of Information Furnished. The Credit Documents and the
      other certificates, statements and information (excluding projections)
      furnished to Agent or any Lender by or on behalf of Borrowers, the
      Guarantors and FIL's Subsidiaries in connection with the Credit Documents
      and the transactions contemplated thereby, taken as a whole, do not
      contain and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact and
      do not omit and will not omit to state a material fact necessary to make
      the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they
      were made, not misleading. All projections have been based upon reasonable
      assumptions and represent, as of their respective dates of


                                       41
<PAGE>
      presentations, Borrowers' best estimates of the future performance of
      Borrowers, the Guarantors and FIL's Subsidiaries.

      4.02. Reaffirmation. Each Borrower shall be deemed to have reaffirmed, for
the benefit of the Lenders and Agent, each representation and warranty contained
in Paragraph 4.01 on and as of the date of each Credit Event involving the
making of a Loan or the issuance of a Letter of Credit (except for
representations and warranties expressly made as of a specified date, which
shall be true as of such date).

            of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as Agent on behalf
            of itself or one or more Lenders may from time to time reasonably
            request.

      In lieu of furnishing to Agent hard copies of the quarterly Financial
      Statements described in clause (i) above and the annual Financial
      Statements and auditor's report described in clauses (ii)(A) and (ii)(B)
      above and the other documents referred to in clause (v) above, FIL may
      make such documents available to Lenders at its website located at
      www.flextronics.com and through the United States Securities and Exchange
      Commission's EDGAR system ("EDGAR") or by transmitting such documents
      electronically to Lenders. The Agent shall provide to any Lender hard
      copies of such documents upon request if such Lender does not have access
      to FIL's website or EDGAR.

            (b) Books and Records. Each Borrower and FIL's Subsidiaries shall at
      all times keep proper books of record and account which shall be complete
      and correct in all material respects in accordance with GAAP.

            (c) Inspections. Each Borrower and FIL's Subsidiaries shall permit
      Agent and each Lender, or any agent or representative thereof, upon
      reasonable notice and during normal business hours, to visit and inspect
      any of the properties and offices of such Borrower and FIL's Subsidiaries,
      to examine the books and records of such Borrower and FIL's Subsidiaries
      and make copies thereof and to discuss the affairs, finances and business
      of such Borrower and FIL's Subsidiaries with, and to be advised as to the
      same by, their officers, auditors and accountants, all at such times and
      intervals as Agent or any Lender may reasonably request (which visits and
      inspections shall be at the expense of Agent or such Lender unless a
      Default has occurred and is continuing).

            (d) Insurance. Each Borrower and FIL's Subsidiaries shall (i) carry
      and maintain insurance of the types and in the amounts customarily carried
      from time to time during the term of this Agreement by others engaged in
      substantially the same business as such Person and operating in the same
      geographic area as such Person, including fire, public liability, property
      damage and worker's compensation, (ii) carry and maintain each policy for
      such insurance with financially sound insurers and (iii) deliver to Agent
      from time to time, as Agent may request, schedules setting forth all
      insurance then in effect.

            (e) Taxes, Governmental Charges and Other Indebtedness. Each
      Borrower and FIL's Subsidiaries shall promptly pay and discharge when due

                                       43
<PAGE>
      to the date upon which penalties accrue thereon, (ii) all indebtedness
      which, if unpaid, could become a Lien upon the property of such Borrower
      or FIL's Subsidiaries and (iii) subject to any subordination provisions
      applicable thereto, all other Indebtedness, which in each case, if unpaid,
      is reasonably and substantially likely to have a Material Adverse Effect,
      except such taxes, Governmental Charges or Indebtedness as may in good
      faith be contested or disputed, or for which arrangements for deferred
      payment have been made, provided that in each such case appropriate
      reserves are maintained in accordance with GAAP.

            (f) Use of Proceeds. Each Borrower shall use the proceeds of the
      Loans only for the respective purposes set forth in Section II. No
      Borrower shall use any part of the proceeds of any Loan or any Letter of
      Credit, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or carrying
      any Margin Stock or for the purpose of purchasing or carrying or trading
      in any securities under such circumstances as to involve such Borrower,
      any Lender or Agent in a violation of Regulations T, U or X issued by the
      Federal Reserve Board.

            (g) General Business Operations. Each of the Borrowers and FIL's
      Subsidiaries shall (i) preserve and maintain its corporate existence and
      all of its rights, privileges and franchises reasonably necessary to the
      conduct of its business, (ii) conduct its business activities in
      compliance with all Requirements of Law and Contractual Obligations
      applicable to such Person and (iii) keep all property useful and necessary
      in its business in good working order and condition, ordinary wear and
      tear excepted, except, in each case, where any failure is not reasonably
      and substantially likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

            (h) Pari Passu Ranking. Each Borrower shall take, or cause to be
      taken, all actions necessary to ensure that the Obligations of such
      Borrower are and continue to rank at least pari passu in right of payment
      with all other unsecured and unsubordinated Indebtedness of such Borrower.

      5.02. Negative Covenants. Until the termination of this Agreement and the
satisfaction in full by Borrowers of all Obligations, Borrowers will comply, and
will cause compliance, with the following negative covenants, unless Required
Lenders shall otherwise consent in writing:

            (a) Indebtedness. None of the Borrowers or any of FIL's Subsidiaries
      shall create, incur, assume or permit to exist any Indebtedness except for
      the following ("Permitted Indebtedness"):

                  (i) Indebtedness that is not secured by a Lien in any asset or
            property of any of the Borrowers or any of FIL's Subsidiaries;

                  (ii) (A) Indebtedness under Capital Leases or under purchase
            money loans incurred by Borrower or any of FIL's Subsidiaries to
            finance the acquisition, construction, development or improvement by
            such Person of real property, fixtures, or equipment or other
            tangible assets provided that in each case (1) such Indebtedness is
            incurred by such Person at the time of, or not later than one
            hundred twenty (120) days after, the acquisition by such Person of
            the property so financed and (2) such Indebtedness does not exceed
            the purchase price of the property (or the cost of constructing,
            developing or improving the same) so financed, and (B) Indebtedness
            under initial or successive refinancings of any such Capital Leases
            or purchase money loans provided that the principal amount of any
            such refinancing does not exceed the principal amount of the
            Indebtedness being refinanced;

                  (iii) Existing Secured Indebtedness, together with initial or
            successive refinancings thereof, provided that (A) the principal
            amount of any such refinancing does not exceed the principal amount
            of the Indebtedness being refinanced (except to the extent necessary
            to pay fees, expenses, underwriting discounts and prepayment
            penalties in connection therewith) and (B) the other terms and
            provisions of any such refinancing with respect to maturity,
            redemption, prepayment, default and subordination are no less

      (ii) Agent's or any Lender's written notice to Borrowers of such failure;
      provided, however, that in the event that such failure cannot reasonably

      the observance or performance of any of the covenants, obligations,
      conditions or agreements contained in Subparagraph 4.01(f) hereof with
      respect to Hazardous Materials or any Environmental Laws or any judgment,
      consent decree, settlement or compromise in respect of any claim based
      thereon, it shall not constitute an Event of Default hereunder so long as
      Borrowers shall have commenced to cure such failure within such thirty
      (30) day period and shall thereafter diligently pursue such cure to
      completion, provided further that such failure shall in all events be
      cured within one hundred and eighty days (180) days after Agent's or such
      Lender's written notice thereof; or

            (d) Representations and Warranties. Any representation, warranty,
      certificate, information or other statement (financial or otherwise) made
      or furnished by or on behalf of any Borrower to Agent or any Lender in or
      in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents, or
      as an inducement to Agent or any Lender to enter into this Agreement,
      shall be false, incorrect, incomplete or misleading in any material
      respect when made (or deemed made) or furnished and either (i) Agent or

      representation, warranty, certificate, information or other statement
      cannot be remedied or (ii) such representation, warranty, certificate,
      information or other statement continues to be false, incorrect,
      incomplete or misleading in any material respect thirty (30) days after

      representation, warranty, certificate, information or other statement was
      false, incorrect, incomplete or misleading in any material respect and (B)
      Agent's or any Lender's written notice to Borrowers that such

      Subsidiary shall fail to make any payment on account of any Indebtedness
      of such Person (other than the Obligations) when due (whether at scheduled
      maturity, by required prepayment, upon acceleration or otherwise) and such
      failure shall continue beyond any period of grace provided with respect
      thereto, if the amount of such Indebtedness exceeds $40,000,000 or the
      effect of such failure is to cause, or permit the holder or holders
      thereof to cause, Indebtedness of any Borrower, any Guarantor and any

      exceeding $40,000,000 to become due (whether at scheduled maturity, by

      Borrower, any Guarantor and any Material Subsidiary (other than the
      Obligations) in an aggregate amount exceeding $40,000,000 to become due
      (and/or to be secured by cash collateral other than cash collateral
      obligations not arising from an event of default under any agreement or
      instrument relating to Indebtedness incurred in connection with a
      synthetic lease transaction or letters of credit); or

            (f) Insolvency, Voluntary Proceedings. Any Borrower or any

      dismissed or discharged within sixty (60) days of commencement; or

            (h) Judgments. (i) One or more judgments, orders, decrees or
      arbitration awards requiring Borrowers and/or FIL's Subsidiaries to pay an
      aggregate amount of $25,000,000 or more (exclusive of amounts covered by
      insurance issued by an insurer not an Affiliate of Borrowers and otherwise
      satisfying the requirements set forth in Subparagraph 5.01(d) to which the
      insurer does not dispute coverage) shall be rendered against Borrowers
      and/or FIL's Subsidiaries in connection with any single or related series
      of transactions, incidents or circumstances and the same shall not be
      satisfied, vacated or stayed for a period of sixty (60) consecutive days;

            (i) Credit Documents. Any Credit Document or any material term
      thereof shall cease to be, or be asserted by any Borrower or any Guarantor
      not to be, a legal, valid and binding obligation of any Borrower or any
      Guarantor enforceable in accordance with its terms; or

            (j) Employee Benefit Plans. Any Reportable Event which constitutes
      grounds for the termination of any Employee Benefit Plan by the PBGC or

      6.02. Remedies. At any time after the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default referred to
in Subparagraph 6.01(f) or 6.01(g)), Agent may, with the consent of the Required
Lenders, or shall, upon instructions from the Required Lenders, by written
notice to Borrowers, (a) terminate the Commitments and the obligations of
Lenders to make Loans and to participate in Letters of Credit and of Issuing
Bank to issue Letters of Credit, and/or (b) declare all outstanding Obligations
payable by Borrowers to be immediately due and payable without presentment,
demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby
expressly waived, anything contained herein or in the Notes to the contrary
notwithstanding and (c) direct Borrowers to deliver to Agent funds in an amount
equal to the aggregate stated amount of all Letters of Credit. Upon the
occurrence or existence of any Event of Default described in Subparagraph
6.01(f) or 6.01(g), immediately and without notice, (1) the Commitments and the
obligations of Lenders to make Loans and to participate in Letters of Credit,
and of the Issuing Bank to issue Letters of Credit shall automatically terminate
and (2) all outstanding Obligations payable by Borrowers hereunder shall
automatically become immediately due and payable, without


                                       51
<PAGE>
presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are
hereby expressly waived, anything contained herein or in the Notes to the
contrary notwithstanding. In addition to the foregoing remedies, upon the
occurrence or existence of any Event of Default, Agent may exercise any other
right, power or remedy available to it under any of the Credit Documents or
otherwise by law, either by suit in equity or by action at law, or both.

      6.03. Lender Rate Contract Remedies. Notwithstanding any other provision
of this Section VI, each Lender or its Affiliate which has entered into a Lender
Rate Contract shall have the right, with prior notice to Agent, but without the
approval or consent of Agent or any other Lender, (a) to declare an event of
default, termination event or other similar event thereunder which will result
in the early termination of such Lender Rate Contract, (b) to determine net
termination amounts in accordance with the terms of such Lender Rate Contract
and to set-off amounts between Lender Rate Contracts of such Lender, and (c) to
prosecute any legal action against any Borrower or any of FIL's Subsidiaries to
enforce net amounts owing to such Lender or its Affiliate under such Lender Rate
Contracts.

SECTION VII. THE AGENT AND RELATIONS AMONG LENDERS.

      7.01. Appointment, Powers and Immunities. Each Lender hereby appoints and
authorizes Agent to act as its agent hereunder and under the other Credit
Documents with such powers as are expressly delegated to Agent by the terms of
this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, together with such other powers
as are reasonably incidental thereto. Agent shall not have any duties or
responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement or in any
other Credit Document, be a trustee for any Lender or have any fiduciary duty to
any Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein Agent
shall not be required to take any action which is contrary to this Agreement or
any other Credit Document or any applicable Governmental Rule. Neither Agent nor
any Lender shall be responsible to any other Lender for any recitals,
statements, representations or warranties made by any Borrower or any Guarantor
contained in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document, for the value,
validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this
Agreement or any other Credit Document or for any failure by any Borrower or any
Guarantor to perform their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder. Agent
may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible to any
Lender for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact
selected by it with reasonable care. Neither Agent nor any of its directors,
officers, employees, agents or advisors shall be responsible to any Lender for
any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or under any
other Credit Document or in connection herewith or therewith, except for its or
their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Except as otherwise provided
under this Agreement, Agent shall take such action with respect to the Credit
Documents as shall be directed by the Required Lenders.

      7.02. Reliance by Agent. Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any
certificate, notice or other document (including any cable, telegram, facsimile
or telex) believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have
been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person or Persons, and upon
advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other
experts selected by Agent with reasonable care. As to any other matters not
expressly provided for by this Agreement, Agent shall not be required to take
any action or exercise any discretion, but shall be required to act or to
refrain from acting upon instructions of the Required Lenders and shall in all
cases be fully protected by Lenders in acting, or in refraining from acting,
hereunder or under any other Credit Document in accordance with the instructions
of the Required Lenders, and such instructions of the Required Lenders and any
action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of
Lenders.

      7.03. Defaults. Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of
the occurrence of any Default unless Agent has received a written notice from a
Lender or any Borrower, referring to this Agreement, describing such Default and
stating that such notice is a "Notice of Default". If Agent receives such a
notice of the occurrence of a Default, Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to
Lenders. Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default as shall be
reasonably directed by the Required Lenders; provided, however, that until Agent
shall have received such directions, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to)
take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such
Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of Lenders.

      7.04. Indemnification. Without limiting the Obligations of Borrowers
hereunder, each Lender agrees to indemnify Agent, ratably in accordance with
their Proportionate Shares, for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements
of any kind or nature


                                       52
<PAGE>
whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against
Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any documents
contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or
thereof; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any of the
foregoing to the extent they arise from Agent's gross negligence or willful
misconduct. Agent shall be fully justified in refusing to take or in continuing
to take any action hereunder unless it shall first be indemnified to its
satisfaction by Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be
incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The
obligations of each Lender under this Paragraph 7.04 shall survive the payment
and performance of the Obligations, the termination of this Agreement and any
Lender ceasing to be a party to this Agreement (with respect to events which
occurred prior to the time such Lender ceased to be a Lender hereunder).

      7.05. Non-Reliance. Each Lender represents that it has, independently and
without reliance on Agent, or any other Lender, and based on such documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of the
business, prospects, management, financial condition and affairs of Borrowers
and FIL's Subsidiaries and its own decision to enter into this Agreement and
agrees that it will, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other
Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate
at the time, continue to make its own appraisals and decisions in taking or not
taking action under this Agreement. Neither Agent nor any of its affiliates nor
any of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents or advisors shall
(a) be required to keep any Lender informed as to the performance or observance
by any Borrower or any Guarantor of the obligations under this Agreement or any
other document referred to or provided for herein or to make inquiry of, or to
inspect the properties or books of any Borrower or any of FIL's Subsidiaries;
(b) have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or
other information concerning any Borrower or any of FIL's Subsidiaries which may
come into the possession of Agent, except for notices, reports and other
documents and information expressly required to be furnished to Lenders by Agent
hereunder; or (c) be responsible to any Lender for (i) any recital, statement,
representation or warranty made by any Borrower or any officer, employee or
agent of any Borrower in this Agreement or in any of the other Credit Documents,
(ii) the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or
sufficiency of this Agreement or any Credit Document, or (iii) any failure by
any Borrower or any Guarantor to perform its obligations under this Agreement or
any other Credit Document.

      7.06. Resignation or Removal of Agent. Agent may resign at any time by
giving thirty (30) days prior written notice thereof to Borrowers and Lenders,
and Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by the Required
Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall have
the right to appoint a successor Agent, which Agent, if not a Lender, shall be
reasonably acceptable to Borrowers; provided, however, that Borrowers shall have
no right to approve a successor Agent if a Default has occurred and is
continuing. 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 retiring Agent,
at which point (and not earlier) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from the
duties and obligations thereafter arising hereunder. After any retiring Agent's
resignation or removal hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Section VII
shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or
omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Agent.

      7.07. Agent in its Individual Capacity. Agent, Issuing Bank and their
respective affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally
engage in any kind of banking or other business with Borrowers and any of FIL's
Subsidiaries and affiliates as though Agent was not Agent hereunder and Issuing
Bank was not Issuing Bank hereunder . With respect to Loans, if any, made by
Agent in its capacity as a Lender and Letters of Credit, if any, issued by
Issuing Bank in its capacity as Issuing Bank, Agent and Issuing Bank shall have
the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents
as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not Agent or
Issuing Bank, respectively, and the terms "Lender" and "Lenders" shall include
Agent in its capacity as a Lender and Issuing Bank in its capacity as a Lender,
respectively.

      7.08. Co-Arrangers, Co-Syndication Agents, Senior Managing Agent and
Managing Agents. The Co-Arrangers, the Co-Syndication Agents, the Senior
Managing Agent and the Managing Agents do not assume any responsibility or
obligation under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents or any
duties as agents for the Lenders. The title "Co-Arrangers", "Co-Syndication
Agents", "Senior Managing Agent" and "Managing Agents" implies no fiduciary
responsibility on the part of any Co-Arranger, Co-Syndication Agent, Senior


                                       53
<PAGE>
Managing Agent and Managing Agents to any Person, and the use of such title does
not impose on any Co-Arranger, Co-Syndication Agent, Senior Managing Agent and
Managing Agents any duties or obligations under this Agreement or any of the
other Credit Documents.

SECTION VIII. MISCELLANEOUS.

      8.01. Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein, all notices, requests,

Each Notice of Borrowing, Notice of Interest Period Selection and LC Application
shall be given by the applicable Borrower to Agent, and in the case of an LC
Application, to Issuing Bank, to the office of such Person located at the
address referred to above during such office's normal business hours; provided,
however, that any such notice received by any such Person after 11:00 a.m.
(California time) on any Business Day shall be deemed received by such Person on

requests, demands or other communications by Borrowers to Agent, Issuing Bank or
any Lender to be made by telephone or facsimile, Agent, Issuing Bank or any
Lender may conclusively presume that anyone purporting to be a person designated
in any incumbency certificate or other similar document received by Agent or a
Lender is such a person.

      8.02. Expenses. Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay on demand,
whether or not any Loan is made or Letter of Credit is issued hereunder, (a) all
reasonable fees and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses,
incurred by Agent in connection with the syndication of the Loans, the
preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of, and the exercise of its
duties under, this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and the
preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of amendments and waivers
hereunder and thereunder and (b) all reasonable fees and expenses, including
reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, incurred by Agent and Lenders in the
enforcement or attempted enforcement of any of the Obligations or in preserving
any of Agent's or Lenders' rights and remedies (including, without limitation,
all such fees and expenses incurred in connection with any "workout" or
restructuring affecting the Credit Documents or the Obligations or any
bankruptcy or similar proceeding involving any Borrower or any of FIL's
Subsidiaries). As used herein, the term "reasonable attorneys' fees and
expenses" shall include, without limitation, allocable costs and expenses of
Agent's and Lenders' in-house legal counsel and staff. The obligations of
Borrowers under this Paragraph 8.02 shall survive the payment and performance of
the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

      8.03. Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrowers
jointly and severally agree to protect, indemnify, defend and hold harmless
Agent, Lenders and their Affiliates and their respective directors, officers,
employees, agents and advisors ("Indemnitees") from and against any and all
liabilities, losses, damages or expenses of any kind or nature (including, with
respect to Taxes, only those Taxes that constitute Non-Excluded Taxes) and from
any suits, claims or demands (including in respect of or for reasonable
attorney's fees and other expenses) arising on account of or in connection with
any matter or thing or action or failure to act by Indemnitees,


                                       55
<PAGE>
or any of them, arising out of or relating to the Credit Documents or any
transaction contemplated thereby, including without limitation any use by any
Borrower of any proceeds of the Loans or any Letter of Credit, except to the
extent such liability arises from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of
such Indemnitee. Each request for any indemnity payment by an Indemnitee under
this Paragraph 8.03 must be accompanied by a reasonably detailed written
explanation identifying the liability, loss, damage or expense regarding which
the indemnification is being requested and explaining the basis for such
indemnification claim. In addition, if any Lender determines reasonably, in good
faith, and in its sole discretion that it has received a refund of, credit or
benefit of a deduction resulting from, any Non-Excluded Taxes to which it has
been indemnified by Borrowers or with respect to which Borrowers have paid
additional amounts pursuant to this Paragraph 8.03 or Paragraph 2.13, it shall
pay the amount of such refund, credit or benefit of such deduction to Borrowers
(but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid,
by Borrowers with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes giving rise to such refund,
credit or deduction), net of all incurred out-of-pocket expenses of such Lender
and without interest (other than interest paid by the relevant Governmental
Authority with respect to such refund, credit or benefit of such deduction);
provided, however, that Borrowers shall, upon the written request of such
Lender, agree to repay the amount paid over to Borrowers (plus any penalties,
interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to
such Lender in the event such Lender is required by force of law to repay such
refund, credit or benefit of such deduction to such Governmental Authority. The
obligations of Borrowers under this Paragraph 8.03 shall survive the payment and
performance of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

      8.04. Waivers; Amendments. (a) Any term, covenant, agreement or condition
of this Agreement or any other Credit Document which relates solely to Facility
A may be amended or waived, and any consent under this Agreement or any other
Credit Document which relates solely to Facility A may be given, if such
amendment, waiver or consent is in writing and is signed by Borrowers and the
Required Facility A Lenders (or Agent on behalf of the Required Facility A
Lenders with the written approval of the Required Facility A Lenders); (b) any
term, covenant, agreement or condition of this Agreement or any other Credit
Document which relates solely to Facility B may be amended or waived, and any
consent under this Agreement or any other Credit Document which relates solely
to Facility B may be given, if such amendment, waiver or consent is in writing
and is signed by Borrowers and the Required Facility B Lenders (or Agent on
behalf of the Required Facility B Lenders with the written approval of the
Required Facility B Lenders); and (c) any term, covenant, agreement or condition
of this Agreement or any other Credit Document which does not relate solely to
Facility A or Facility B may be amended or waived, and any consent under this
Agreement or any other Credit Document which does not relate solely to Facility
A or Facility B may be given, if such amendment, waiver or consent is in writing
and is signed by Borrowers and the Required Lenders (or Agent on behalf of the
Required Lenders with the written approval of the Required Lenders); provided,
however that:

            (i) Any amendment, waiver or consent which would (A) increase the
      Total Facility A Commitment, (B) postpone, delay or extend the Facility A
      Maturity Date, (C) reduce the principal of or interest on the Facility A
      Loans or any Letter of Credit, the Facility A Commitment Fees or any other
      fees or amounts payable for the account of all Facility A Lenders
      hereunder or postpone, delay or extend the scheduled date for payment of
      any such principal, interest, fees or amounts with respect to Facility A
      need not be approved by any Facility B Lender but must be in writing and
      signed or approved in writing by all Facility A Lenders;

            (ii) Any amendment, waiver or consent which would (A) increase the
      Total Facility B Commitment, (B) postpone, delay or extend the Facility B
      Maturity Date, (C) reduce the principal of or interest on the Facility B
      Loans, the Facility B Commitment Fees or any other fees or amounts payable
      for the account of all Facility B Lenders hereunder or postpone, delay or
      extend the scheduled date for payment of any such principal, interest,
      fees or amounts with respect to Facility B need not be approved by any
      Facility A Lender but must be in writing and signed or approved in writing
      by all Facility B Lenders;

            (iii) Any amendment, waiver or consent which would (A) reduce the
      principal of or interest on the Loans or any fees or other amounts payable
      for the account of all Lenders hereunder or extend the scheduled date for
      payment of any such principal, interest, fees or amounts, (B) reduce any
      fees or other amounts payable for the account of all Lenders hereunder or
      postpone, delay or extend the scheduled date for payment of any such fees
      or amounts, (C) amend this Paragraph 8.04, (D) amend the definition of


                                       56
<PAGE>
      Currencies or Required Lenders, or (E) release any Guarantor (except for
      releases as provided in Paragraph 2.15), must be in writing and signed or
      approved in writing by all Lenders;

            (iv) Any amendment, waiver or consent which would (A) increase or
      decrease the Facility A Commitment of any Facility A Lender (except for a
      pro rata decrease in the Facility A Commitments of all Facility A Lenders)
      or (B) increase or decrease the Facility B Commitment of any Facility B
      Lender (except for a pro rata decrease in the Facility B Commitments of
      all Facility B Lenders) must be in writing and signed by such Lender;

            (v) Any amendment, waiver or consent which affects the rights or
      obligations of the Issuing Bank must be signed by the Issuing Bank; and

            (vi) Any amendment, waiver or consent which affects the rights or
      obligations of Agent must be in writing and signed by Agent.

No failure or delay by Agent or any Lender in exercising any right under this
Agreement or any other Credit Document shall operate as a waiver thereof or of
any other right hereunder or thereunder nor shall any single or partial exercise
of any such right preclude any other further exercise thereof or of any other
right hereunder or thereunder. Unless otherwise specified in such waiver or
consent, a waiver or consent given hereunder shall be effective only in the
specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

      8.05. Successors and Assigns.

            (a) Binding Effect. This Agreement and the other Credit Documents
      shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrowers, Lenders,
      Agent, all future holders of the Notes and their respective successors and
      permitted assigns, except that any Borrower may not assign or transfer any
      of its rights or obligations under any Credit Document without the prior
      written consent of Agent and each Lender.

            (b) Participations. Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more
      banks or other financial institutions ("Participants") participating
      interests in any Loan owing to such Lender, any Note held by such Lender,
      any Commitment of such Lender or any other interest of such Lender under
      this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. In the event of any such
      sale by a Lender of participating interests, such Lender's obligations
      under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain
      solely responsible for the performance thereof, such Lender shall remain
      the holder of its Notes for all purposes under this Agreement and
      Borrowers and 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 such sale is effected may
      require the selling Lender to obtain the consent of the Participant in
      order for such Lender to agree in writing to any amendment, waiver or
      consent of a type specified in Subparagraph 8.04(a), Subparagraph 8.04(b),
      Subparagraph 8.04(c) or Subparagraph 8.04(d) to the extent applicable but
      may not otherwise require the selling Lender to obtain the consent of such
      Participant to any other amendment, waiver or consent hereunder. Borrowers
      also agree that any Lender which has transferred any participating
      interest in its Commitments or Loans shall, notwithstanding any such
      transfer, be entitled to the full benefits accorded such Lender under
      Paragraph 2.12, Paragraph 2.13, and Paragraph 2.14, as if such Lender had
      not made such transfer.

            (c) Assignments. Any Lender may, at any time, sell and assign to any
      other Lender or any Eligible Assignee (individually, an "Assignee Lender")
      all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and
      the other Credit Documents (such a sale and assignment to be referred to
      herein as an "Assignment") pursuant to an assignment and assumption in the
      form of Exhibit D (an "Assignment and Assumption"), executed by each
      Assignee Lender and such assignor Lender (an "Assignor Lender") and
      delivered to Agent for its acceptance and recording in the Register;
      provided, however, that:

                  (i) Without the written consent of Agent, Issuing Bank and, if
            no Default has occurred and is continuing, FIL (which consent of
            Agent, Issuing Bank and FIL shall not be unreasonably withheld), no
            Lender may make any Assignment of its Commitment or Loans to any


                                       57
<PAGE>
            Assignee Lender which is not, immediately prior to such Assignment,
            a Lender hereunder or an Affiliate thereof;

                  (ii) Without the written consent of Agent, Issuing Bank and,
            if no Default has occurred and is continuing, FIL (which consent of
            Agent, Issuing Bank and FIL shall not be unreasonably withheld), no
            Facility A Lender may make any Assignment of its Facility A
            Commitment and Facility A Loans to any Assignee Lender if, after
            giving effect to such Assignment, the Facility A Commitment (or,
            after the termination of the Facility A Commitments, the Facility A
            Loans) of such Lender or such Assignee Lender would be less than Two
            Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000), except that a
            Facility A Lender may make an Assignment which reduces its Facility
            A Commitment (or, after the termination of the Facility A
            Commitments, its Facility A Loans) to zero without the written
            consent of FIL and Agent;

                  (iii) Without the written consent of Agent and, if no Default
            has occurred and is continuing, FIL (which consent of Agent and FIL
            shall not be unreasonably withheld), no Facility B Lender may make
            any Assignment of its Facility B Commitment and Facility B Loans to
            any Assignee Lender if, after giving effect to such Assignment, the
            Facility B Commitment (or, after the termination of the Facility B
            Commitments, the Facility B Loans) of such Lender or such Assignee
            Lender would be less than Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
            ($2,500,000), except that a Facility B Lender may make an Assignment
            which reduces its Facility B Commitment (or, after the termination
            of the Facility B Commitments, its Facility B Loans) to zero without
            the written consent of FIL and Agent;

                  (iv) Without the written consent of Agent, Issuing Bank and,
            if no Default has occurred and is continuing, FIL (which consent of
            Agent and FIL shall not be unreasonably withheld), no Facility A
            Lender may make any Assignment of its Facility A Commitment and
            Facility A Loans which does not assign and delegate an equal pro
            rata interest in such Facility A Lender's Facility A Commitment,
            Facility A Loans and all other rights, duties and obligations of
            such Facility A Lender under this Agreement and the other Credit
            Documents relating to Facility A;

                  (v) Without the written consent of Agent and, if no Default
            has occurred and is continuing, FIL (which consent of Agent and FIL
            shall not be unreasonably withheld), no Facility B Lender may make
            any Assignment of its Facility B Commitment and Facility B Loans
            which does not assign and delegate to such Assignee Lender an equal
            pro rata interest in such Facility B Lender's Facility B Commitment,
            Facility B Loans and all other rights, duties and obligations of
            such Facility B Lender under this Agreement and the other Credit
            Documents relating to Facility B;

                  (vi) Without the written consent of Agent and, if no Default
            has occurred and is continuing, FIL, no Lender may make any
            Assignment of its Facility A Commitment and Facility A Loans under
            this Agreement to any Assignee Lender unless such Lender
            concurrently assigns and delegates to such Assignee Lender an equal
            pro rata interest in its "Facility A Commitment" and "Facility A
            Loans" under the FIUI Credit Agreement; and

                  (vii) Without the written consent of Agent and, if no Default
            has occurred and is continuing, FIL, no Lender may make any
            Assignment of its Facility B Commitment and Facility B Loans under
            this Agreement to any Assignee Lender unless such Lender
            concurrently assigns and delegates an equal pro rata interest in its
            "Facility B Commitment" and "Facility B Loans" under the FIUI Credit
            Agreement.

      Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording of each Assignment
      and Assumption, from and after the Assignment Effective Date determined
      pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, (A) each Assignee Lender
      thereunder shall be a Lender hereunder with Commitments or Loans as set
      forth on Attachment 1 to such Assignment and Assumption (under the caption
      "Commitments or Loans After Assignment") and shall have the rights, duties
      and obligations of such a Lender under this Agreement and


                                       58
<PAGE>
      the other Credit Documents, and (B) the Assignor Lender thereunder shall
      be a Lender with Commitments or Loans as set forth on Attachment 1 to such
      Assignment and Assumption (under the caption "Commitments or Loans After
      Assignment"), or, if the Commitments or Loans of the Assignor Lender have
      been reduced to zero, the Assignor Lender shall cease to be a Lender and
      to have any obligation to make any Loan; provided, however, that any such
      Assignor Lender which ceases to be a Lender shall continue to be entitled
      to the benefits of any provision of this Agreement which by its terms
      survives the termination of this Agreement. Each Assignment and Assumption
      shall be deemed to amend Schedule I to the extent, and only to the extent,
      necessary to reflect the addition of each Assignee Lender, the deletion of
      each Assignor Lender which reduces its Commitments or Loans to zero, and
      the resulting adjustment of Commitments or Loans arising from the purchase
      by each Assignee Lender of all or a portion of the rights and obligations
      of an Assignor Lender under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.
      On or prior to the Assignment Effective Date determined pursuant to each
      Assignment and Assumption, Borrowers, at their own expense, shall, if
      requested by Assignee Lenders, execute and deliver to Agent, in exchange
      for the surrendered Notes, if any, of the Assignor Lender thereunder, new
      Notes to the order of each Assignee Lender thereunder and, if the Assignor
      Lender is continuing as a Lender hereunder, new Notes to the order of the
      Assignor Lender. The Notes surrendered by the Assignor Lender shall be
      returned by Agent to Borrowers marked "replaced". Each Assignee Lender
      which becomes a Lender and was not previously such a Lender hereunder
      shall, prior to becoming such a Lender, deliver such certificates and
      other evidence as is required by Subparagraph 2.13(b).

            (d) Register. Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in
      Paragraph 8.01 a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it
      and a register (the "Register") for the recordation of the names and
      addresses of Lenders and the Commitments or Loans of each Lender from time
      to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive in the absence of
      manifest error, and Borrowers, Agent and Lenders may treat each Person
      whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Commitments or
      Loans recorded therein for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register
      shall be available for inspection by any Borrower or any Lender at any
      reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

            (e) Registration. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Assumption
      executed by an Assignor Lender and an Assignee Lender (and, to the extent
      required by Subparagraph 8.05(c), by Borrowers, Agent and Issuing Bank)
      together with payment to Agent by Assignor Lender of a registration and
      processing fee of $3,000, Agent shall (i) promptly accept such Assignment
      and Assumption and (ii) on the Effective Date determined pursuant thereto
      record the information contained therein in the Register and give notice
      of such acceptance and recordation to Lenders and Borrowers. Agent may,
      from time to time at its election, prepare and deliver to Lenders and
      Borrowers a revised Schedule I reflecting the names, addresses and
      respective Commitments or Loans of all Lenders then parties hereto.

            (f) Confidentiality. Subject to Paragraph 8.12, Agent and Lenders
      may disclose the Credit Documents and any financial or other information
      relating to Borrowers or any Subsidiary to each other or to any potential
      Participant or Assignee Lender.

            (g) Pledges to Federal Reserve Banks. Notwithstanding any other
      provision of this Agreement, any Lender may at any time assign all or a
      portion of its rights under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents
      to a Federal Reserve Bank. No such assignment shall relieve the assigning
      Lender from its obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit
      Documents.

      8.06. Setoff; Security Interest.

            (a) Setoff. In addition to any rights and remedies of Lenders
      provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, with prior notice to
      Agent but without prior notice to or consent of Borrowers, any such notice
      and consent being expressly waived by Borrowers to the extent permitted by
      applicable law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event
      of Default, to set-off and apply against the Obligations of any Borrower
      any amount owing from such Lender to such Borrower. The aforesaid right of
      set-off may be exercised by such Lender against a Borrower or against any
      trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of
      creditors, receiver or execution, judgment or attachment creditor of such
      Borrower or against anyone else claiming through or against such Borrower
      or such trustee in


                                       59
<PAGE>
      bankruptcy, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors,
      receiver, or execution, judgment or attachment creditor, notwithstanding
      the fact that such right of set-off may not have been exercised by such
      Lender at any prior time. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the
      applicable Borrower after any such set-off and application made by such
      Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the
      validity of such set-off and application.

            (b) Security Interest. As security for the Obligations, each
      Borrower hereby grants to Agent and each Lender, for the benefit of all
      Lenders, a continuing security interest in any and all deposit accounts or
      moneys of such Borrower now or hereafter maintained with such Lender. Each
      Lender shall have all of the rights of a secured party with respect to
      such security interest.

      8.07. No Third Party Rights. Nothing expressed in or to be implied from
this Agreement is intended to give, or shall be construed to give, any Person,
other than the parties hereto and their permitted successors and assigns
hereunder, any benefit or legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by
virtue of this Agreement or under or by virtue of any provision herein.

      8.08. Partial Invalidity. If at any time any provision of this Agreement
is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the law or
any jurisdiction, neither the legality, validity or enforceability of the
remaining provisions of this Agreement nor the legality, validity or
enforceability of such provision under the law of any other jurisdiction shall
in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

      8.09. Jury Trial. EACH OF BORROWERS, LENDERS AND AGENT, TO THE FULLEST
EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL
BY JURY AS TO ANY ISSUE RELATING HERETO IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, OR
COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY CREDIT DOCUMENT.

      8.10. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
identical counterparts, any set of which signed by all the parties hereto shall
be deemed to constitute a complete, executed original for all purposes.

      8.11. Borrowers' Liabilities. All Borrowers are jointly and severally
liable for the payment and performance of all other Obligations under this
Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and Borrowers also are liable for the
payment and performance of all Obligations under this Agreement and the other
Credit Documents as provided in the Guaranty.

      8.12. Confidentiality. Neither any Lender nor Agent shall disclose to any
Person any information with respect to Borrowers, any Guarantor or any of FIL's
Subsidiaries which is furnished pursuant to this Agreement or under the other
Credit Documents, except that any Lender or Agent may disclose any such
information (a) to its own directors, officers, employees, auditors, counsel and
other advisors and to its Affiliates; (b) to any other Lender or Agent; (c)
which is otherwise available to the public; (d) if required or appropriate in
any report, statement or testimony submitted to any Governmental Authority
having or claiming to have jurisdiction over such Lender or Agent; (e) if
required in response to any summons or subpoena; (f) in connection with any
enforcement by Lenders and Agent of their rights under this Agreement or the
other Credit Documents or any litigation among the parties relating to the
Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby; (g) to comply with
any Requirement of Law applicable to such Lender or Agent; (h) to any Assignee
Lender or Participant or any prospective Assignee Lender or Participant,
provided that such Assignee Lender or Participant or prospective Assignee Lender
or Participant agrees to be bound by this Paragraph 8.12; or (i) otherwise with
the prior consent of the applicable Borrower; provided, however, that (i) any
Lender or Agent served with any summons or subpoena demanding the disclosure of
any such information shall use reasonable efforts to notify Borrowers promptly
of such summons or subpoena if not prohibited by any Requirement of Law and, if
requested by Borrowers and not disadvantageous to such Lender or Agent, to
cooperate with Borrowers in obtaining a protective order restricting such
disclosure, and (ii) any disclosure made in violation of this Agreement shall
not affect the obligations of Borrowers or any Guarantor under this Agreement
and the other Credit Documents.

      8.13. Consent to Jurisdiction. Each Borrower irrevocably submits to the
non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of California and the
courts of the United States of America located in the Northern District of
California and agrees that any legal action, suit or proceeding arising out of
or relating to this Agreement or any of


                                       60
<PAGE>
the other Credit Documents may be brought against such party in any such courts.
Final judgment against any Borrower in any such action, suit or proceeding shall
be conclusive and may be enforced in any other jurisdiction by suit on the
judgment, a certified or exemplified copy of which shall be conclusive evidence
of the judgment, or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this
Subparagraph 8.13 shall affect the right of Agent or any Lender to commence
legal proceedings or otherwise sue any Borrower in any other appropriate
jurisdiction, or concurrently in more than one jurisdiction, or to serve
process, pleadings and other papers upon any Borrower in any manner authorized
by the laws of any such jurisdiction. Each Borrower agrees that process served
either personally or by registered mail shall, to the extent permitted by law,
constitute adequate service of process in any such suit. Without limiting the
foregoing, each Borrower hereby appoints, in the case of any such action or
proceeding brought in the courts of or in the State of California, CT
Corporation, with offices on the date hereof at 818 West Seventh Street, Los
Angeles, California 90017, to receive for it and on its behalf, service of
process in the State of California with respect thereto, provided each Borrower
may appoint any other person, reasonably acceptable to Agent, with offices in
the State of California to replace such agent for service of process upon
delivery to Agent of a reasonably acceptable agreement of such new agent
agreeing so to act. Each Borrower irrevocably waives to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law (a) any objection which it may have now or in the
future to the laying of the venue of any such action, suit or proceeding in any
court referred to in the first sentence above; (b) any claim that any such
action, suit or proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum; (c) its
right of removal of any matter commenced by any other party in the courts of the
State of California to any court of the United States of America; (d) any
immunity which it or its assets may have in respect of its obligations under
this Agreement or any other Credit Document from any suit, execution, attachment
(whether provisional or final, in aid of execution, before judgment or
otherwise) or other legal process; and (e) any right it may have to require the
moving party in any suit, action or proceeding brought in any of the courts
referred to above arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any
other Credit Document to post security for the costs of such Borrower or to post
a bond or to take similar action.

      8.14. Usury. In no event shall any provision of this Agreement or any
other Credit Document ever obligate any Borrower to pay or allow any Lender to
collect interest on any Loan or any other Obligation of a Borrower hereunder at
a rate greater than the maximum non-usurious rate permitted by applicable law
(herein referred to as the "highest lawful rate"), or obligate any Borrower to
pay any taxes, assessments, charges, insurance premiums or other amounts to the
extent that such payments, when added to the interest payable on the Loans or
any other Obligations, would be held to constitute the payment by a Borrower of
interest at a rate greater than the highest lawful rate. This provision shall
control over any provision to the contrary. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, in the event the maturity of all or any part of the principal
amount of the Obligations of a Borrower shall be accelerated for any reason,
then such principal amount so accelerated shall be credited with any interest
theretofore paid thereon in advance and remaining unearned at the time of such
acceleration. If, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, any funds are applied
to the payment of any part of the principal amount of the Obligations of a
Borrower prior to the maturity thereof, then (a) any interest which would
otherwise thereafter accrue on the principal amount so paid by such application
shall be canceled, and (b) the Obligations of such Borrower remaining unpaid
after such application shall be credited with the amount of all interest, if
any, theretofore collected on the principal amount so paid by such application
and remaining unearned at the date of said application; and if the funds so
applied shall be sufficient to pay in full all the Obligations of such Borrower,
then the Lenders shall refund to such Borrower all interest theretofore paid
thereon in advance and remaining unearned at the time of such acceleration.
Regardless of any other provision in this Agreement or any other Credit
Document, no Borrower shall be required to pay any unearned interest on any
Obligations or any portion thereof, or be required to pay interest thereon at a
rate in excess of the highest lawful rate construed by courts having competent
jurisdiction thereof.

      8.15. Hong Kong Branch; Full Recourse Obligations. All Loans to FIL shall
be made to FIL at its Hong Kong branch located at Room 908 Dominion Center,
43-59 Queens Road East, Wanchai, Hong Kong and all payments of principal and
interest by FIL will be made through its Hong Kong branch, provided, however,
that notwithstanding the foregoing, FIL acknowledges that the Obligations
hereunder are full recourse to Flextronics International Ltd., a Singapore
corporation, and are in no manner limited to any extent to any branch thereof
and shall in no manner impair the Agent's or any Lender's ability to collect any
Obligation from FIL.

                                   EXPLANATION

The Applicable Margin with respect to the LIBOR Rate Loans, the LC Usage Fee (as
applicable) and the Commitment Fee Percentage will be determined based on FIL's
Senior Debt Rating assigned by S&P and Moody's as follows:

1.   In the event FIL does not have a Senior Debt Rating from either S&P or
     Moody's, then such rating agency will be deemed for purposes hereof to have
     established a Senior Debt Rating for FIL below BB- and Ba3, respectively.

2.   If the Senior Debt Rating established or deemed to have been established by
     S&P and Moody's are split within different categories above, then the lower
     rating shall apply (with Pricing Level 3 being lower than Pricing Level 2).

3.   Any change in FIL's Senior Debt Rating shall be effective on the date such
     change is first announced by the rating agency making such change.

In addition, the Applicable Margin with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans and the LC
Usage Fee (as applicable) will change based upon the Total Combined Commitment
usage. For example, if the Unused Total Combined Commitment is $450,000,000
(meaning that the Total Combined Commitment usage is $300,000,000 or 40%), the
two columns above applicable only when Total Combined Commitment usage is
greater than 33% shall apply.

         Unless otherwise defined herein, all other capitalized terms used
         herein and defined in the Credit Agreement shall have the respective
         meanings given to those terms in the Credit Agreement.

                  (b) Other Interpretive Provisions. The rules of construction
         set forth in Section I of the Credit Agreement shall, to the extent not
         inconsistent with the terms of this Guaranty, apply to this Guaranty
         and are hereby incorporated by reference. Each Guarantor acknowledges
         receipt of copies of the Credit Agreement and the other Credit
         Documents.

         2. GUARANTY.

                  (a) Payment Guaranty. Each Guarantor unconditionally
         guarantees and promises to pay and perform as and when due, whether at
         stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, any and all of the
         Guaranteed Obligations. If any Debtor Relief Proceeding relating to any
         Borrower is commenced, each Guarantor further unconditionally
         guarantees and promises to pay and perform, upon the demand of Agent,
         any and all of the Guaranteed Obligations (including any and all
         Disallowed Post-Commencement Interest and Expenses) in accordance with
         the terms of the Credit Documents, whether or not such obligations are
         then due and payable by any Guarantor and whether or not such
         obligations are modified, reduced or discharged in such Debtor Relief
         Proceeding. This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of
         collection.

                  (b) Continuing Guaranty. This Guaranty is an irrevocable
         continuing guaranty of the Guaranteed Obligations which shall continue
         in effect until all obligations of Lenders to extend credit to all
         Borrowers have terminated and all of the Guaranteed Obligations have
         been fully paid. If any payment on any Guaranteed Obligation is set
         aside, avoided or rescinded or otherwise recovered from Agent or any
         Lender, such recovered payment shall constitute a Guaranteed Obligation
         hereunder and, if this Guaranty was previously released or terminated,
         it automatically shall be fully reinstated, as if such payment was
         never made.

                  (c) Joint, Several and Independent Obligations. The liability
         of each Guarantor hereunder is joint and several and is independent of
         the Guaranteed Obligations. A separate action or actions may be brought
         and prosecuted against each Guarantor for the full amount of the
         Guaranteed Obligations irrespective of whether action is brought
         against any Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other guarantor of the
         Guaranteed Obligations or whether any Borrower, any other Guarantor or
         any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations is joined in any such
         action or actions.

                  (d) Fraudulent Transfer Limitation. If, in any action to
         enforce this Guaranty, any court of competent jurisdiction determines
         that enforcement against any Guarantor for the full amount of the
         Guaranteed Obligations is not lawful under or would be subject to
         avoidance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any
         applicable provision of any comparable law of any state or other
         jurisdiction, the liability of such Guarantor under this Guaranty shall
         be limited to the maximum amount lawful and not subject to such
         avoidance.

                  (e) Termination. Notwithstanding any termination of this
         Guaranty in accordance with Paragraph 3 hereof, this Guaranty shall
         continue to be in full force and effect and applicable to any
         Guaranteed Obligations arising thereafter which arise because prior
         payments of Guaranteed Obligations are rescinded or otherwise required
         to be surrendered by Agent or any Lender after receipt.

         3. AUTHORIZATIONS, WAIVERS, ETC.

                  (a) Authorizations. Each Guarantor authorizes Agent and
         Lenders, in their discretion, without notice to such Guarantor,
         irrespective of any change in the financial condition of any Borrower,
         such Guarantor, any other Guarantor or any other guarantor of the
         Guaranteed Obligations since the date hereof, and without affecting or
         impairing in any way the liability of such Guarantor hereunder, from
         time to time to:

                  Obligations or any part thereof, including increase or

                  security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof; and

                  Guarantor, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations
                  or any security, including, without limitation, the right to
                  foreclose upon any such security by judicial or nonjudicial
                  sale;

                           (iv) Settle, compromise with, release or substitute
                  any one or more makers, endorsers or guarantors of the
                  Guaranteed Obligations; and

                           (v) Assign the Guaranteed Obligations, this Guaranty
                  or the other Credit Documents in whole or in part to the
                  extent provided in the Credit Agreement and the other Credit
                  Documents.

                  (b) Waivers. Each Guarantor hereby waives:

                           (i) Any right to require Agent or any Lender to (A)
                  proceed against any Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other

                  or exhaust any security received from any Borrower, such
                  Guarantor, any other Guarantor or any other guarantor of the
                  Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise marshal the assets of any
                  Borrower, such Guarantor, any other Guarantor or any other
                  guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations or (C) pursue any
                  other remedy in Agent's or any Lender's power whatsoever;

                           (ii) Any defense arising by reason of the application
                  by any Borrower of the proceeds of any borrowing;

                           (iii) Any defense resulting from the absence,
                  impairment or loss of any right of reimbursement, subrogation,
                  contribution or other right or remedy of Guarantor against any
                  Borrower, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor of the
                  Guaranteed Obligations or any security, whether resulting from
                  an election by Agent or any Lender to foreclose upon security
                  by nonjudicial sale, or otherwise;

                           (iv) Any setoff or counterclaim of any Borrower or

                  any cause whatsoever of the liability of any Borrower

                  principal;

                           (vi) Until all obligations of Agent or any Lender to

         Paragraph 3, each Guarantor hereby further waives (A) all rights and
         defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Agent or any Lender,
         even though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial
         foreclosure with respect to security for a Guaranteed Obligation, has
         destroyed such Guarantor's rights of subrogation and reimbursement
         against any Borrower by the operation of Section 580d of the Code of
         Civil Procedure or otherwise, (B) all rights and defenses such
         Guarantor may have by reason of protection afforded to any Borrower

         Code.

                  (c) The Mexican Guarantor hereby expressly agrees that any
         rights or privileges that it might have under the laws of Mexico shall
         not be applicable to this Guaranty, including, but not limited to, any
         benefit of "orden," "excusion," "division," "quita," "novacion,"
         "prorroga," "espera" or "modificacion," provided in Articles 2813,

         District of Mexico and the corresponding articles of the Civil Codes in
         all States of the United Mexican States ("Mexico"), which are not
         reproduced herein by express declaration that the contents of such
         articles are known to the Mexican Guarantor.

                  (d) Financial Condition of Borrowers, Etc. Each Guarantor is
         fully aware of the financial condition and affairs of each Borrower.

         representation, warranty, statement or information concerning any
         Borrower furnished to such Guarantor by Agent or any Lender and has,
         independently and without reliance on Agent or any Lender, and based on
         such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its
         own appraisal of the financial condition and affairs of each Borrower
         and of other circumstances affecting the risk of nonpayment or
         nonperformance of the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor is in a
         position to obtain, and assumes full responsibility for obtaining, any
         additional information about the financial condition and affairs of
         each Borrower and of other circumstances affecting the risk of


                                      C-5
<PAGE>
         nonpayment or nonperformance of the Guaranteed Obligations and will,
         independently and without reliance upon Agent or any Lender, and based
         on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the
         time, continue to make its own appraisals and decisions in taking or
         not taking action in connection with this Guaranty.

liabilities and obligations owed to such Guarantor by each Borrower (the
"Subordinated Obligations") to the Guaranteed Obligations as provided in this
Paragraph 4.

                  (a) Prohibited Payments, Etc. Except during the continuance of
         a Default (including the commencement and continuation of any Debtor
         Relief Proceeding relating to any Borrower), each Guarantor may receive
         regularly scheduled payments from any Borrower on account of
         Subordinated Obligations. After the occurrence and during the
         continuance of any Default (including the commencement and continuation
         of any Debtor Relief Proceeding relating to any Borrower), however,
         unless Agent otherwise agrees, no Guarantor shall demand, accept or
         take any action to collect any payment on account of the Subordinated
         Obligations.

                  (b) Prior Payment of Guaranteed Obligations. In any Debtor
         Relief Proceeding relating to any Borrower, each Guarantor agrees that
         Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to receive payment of all
         Guaranteed Obligations (including any and all Disallowed
         Post-Commencement Interest and Expenses) before such Guarantor receives
         payment of any Subordinated Obligations.

                  (c) Turn-Over. After the occurrence and during the continuance
         of any Default (including the commencement and continuation of any
         Debtor Relief Proceeding relating to any Borrower), each Guarantor
         shall, if Agent so requests, collect, enforce and receive payments on
         account of the Subordinated Obligations as trustee for Agent and
         Lenders and deliver such payments to Agent on account of the Guaranteed
         Obligations (including any and all Disallowed Post-Commencement
         Interest and Expenses), together with any necessary endorsements or
         other instruments of transfer, but without reducing or affecting in any
         manner the liability of such Guarantor under the other provisions of
         this Guaranty.

                  (d) Agent Authorization. After the occurrence and during the
         continuance of any Default (including the commencement and continuation
         of any Debtor Relief Proceeding relating to any Borrower), Agent is
         authorized and empowered (but without any obligation to so do), in its
         discretion, (i) in the name of each Guarantor, to collect and enforce,
         and to submit claims in respect of, Subordinated Obligations and to
         apply any amounts received thereon to the Guaranteed Obligations
         (including any and all Disallowed Post-Commencement Interest and
         Expenses), and (ii) to require each Guarantor (A) to collect and
         enforce, and to submit claims in respect of, Subordinated Obligations
         and (B) to pay any amounts received on such obligations to Agent for
         application to the Guaranteed Obligations (including any and all
         Disallowed Post-Commencement Interest and Expenses).

         5. CONTRIBUTION AMONG GUARANTORS. Guarantors desire to allocate among
themselves, in a fair and equitable manner, their rights of contribution from
each other when any payment is made by any Guarantor under this Guaranty.
Accordingly, if any payment is made by any Guarantor under this Guaranty (a
"Funding Guarantor") that exceeds its Fair Share, the Funding Guarantor shall be
entitled to a contribution from each other Guarantor in the amount of such other
Guarantor's Fair Share Shortfall, so that all such contributions shall cause
each Guarantor's Aggregate Guaranty Payments to equal its Fair Share. The
amounts payable as contributions hereunder shall be determined by the Funding
Guarantor as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by
the Funding Guarantor, and such determination shall be binding on the other
Guarantors absent manifest error. The allocation and right of contribution among
Guarantors set forth in this Paragraph 5 shall not be construed to limit in any
way the liability of any Guarantor under this Guaranty or the amount of the
Guaranteed Obligations.

                  (b) Payments.

                           (i) Each Guarantor shall make all payments of the
                  Guaranteed Obligations to Agent, or its order, at the office
                  of Agent and at the times specified in the Credit Documents
                  for the payment of such Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor
                  shall make all other payments hereunder at such office as
                  Agent may designate. Each payment shall be made in same day or
                  immediately available funds not later than 11:00 a.m.(local
                  time of the office of Agent at which such payment is to be
                  made) on the date due.

                           (ii) Each Guarantor shall make all payments of the
                  Guaranteed Obligations hereunder in the currency in which such
                  Guaranteed Obligations are required to be paid by any Borrower
                  pursuant to the Credit Documents and shall make all other
                  payments hereunder in Dollars; provided, however, that, if
                  Agent shall request a Guarantor to pay any amount hereunder
                  which would otherwise be payable in another currency in the
                  lawful currency of the United States, such Guarantor shall pay
                  to Agent the Dollar Equivalent of such amount.

                           (iii) If any sum due from any Guarantor under this
                  Guaranty or any other Credit Document to which such Guarantor
                  is a party or any order, judgment or award given or rendered
                  in relation hereto or thereto has to be converted from the
                  currency (the "first currency") in which the same is payable
                  hereunder or thereunder into another currency (the "second
                  currency") for the purpose of (A) making or filing a claim or
                  proof against such Guarantor with any Governmental Authority,
                  (B) obtaining an order or judgment in any court or other
                  tribunal or (C) enforcing any order or judgment given or made
                  in relation hereto, such Guarantor shall, to the fullest
                  extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless each of
                  the Persons to whom such sum is due from and against any loss
                  suffered as a result of any discrepancy between (1) the rate
                  of exchange used


                                      C-7
<PAGE>
                  for such purpose to convert the amounts in question from the
                  first currency into the second currency and (2) the rate or
                  rates of exchange at which such Person may, using reasonable
                  efforts in the ordinary course of business, purchase the first
                  currency with the second currency upon receipt of a sum paid
                  to it in satisfaction, in whole or in part, of any such order,
                  judgment, claim or proof. The foregoing indemnity shall
                  constitute a separate obligation of each Guarantor distinct
                  from its other obligations hereunder and shall survive the
                  giving or making of any judgment or order in relation to all
                  or any of such obligations.

                           (iv) If any amounts required to be paid by any
                  Guarantor under this Guaranty or any order, judgment or award
                  given or rendered in relation hereto remain unpaid after such
                  amounts are due, such Guarantor shall pay interest on the
                  aggregate, outstanding balance of such amounts from the date
                  due until those amounts are paid in full at a per annum rate
                  equal to:

                                    (1) In the case of amounts payable in
                           Dollars, the Base Rate plus two percent (2.00%), such
                           rate to change from time to time as the Base Rate
                           shall change.

                                    (2) In the case of amounts payable in any
                           other currency, the Overnight Rate for such currency
                           plus three percent (3.0%), such rate to change from
                           time to time as the Overnight Rate shall change.

                  (c) Expenses. Each Guarantor shall pay on demand (i) all
         reasonable and documented fees and expenses, including reasonable
         attorneys' fees and expenses, incurred by Agent in connection with the
         preparation, execution and delivery of, and the exercise of its duties
         under, this Guaranty and the preparation, execution and delivery of
         amendments and waivers hereunder and (ii) all reasonable and documented
         fees and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses,
         incurred by Agent and Lenders in connection with the enforcement or
         attempted enforcement of this Guaranty or any of the Guaranteed
         Obligations or in preserving any of Agent's or Lenders' rights and
         remedies (including, without limitation, all such fees and expenses
         incurred in connection with any "workout" or restructuring affecting
         the Credit Documents or the Guaranteed Obligations or any bankruptcy or
         similar proceeding involving Guarantor, any other Guarantor, any
         Borrower, or any of their affiliates).

                  (d) Waivers; Amendments. This Guaranty may not be amended or
         modified, nor may any of its terms be waived, except by written
         instruments signed by each Guarantor and Agent. Each waiver or consent
         under any provision hereof shall be effective only in the specific
         instances for the purpose for which given. No failure or delay on
         Agent's or any Lender's part in exercising any right hereunder shall
         operate as a waiver thereof or of any other right nor shall any single
         or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other further
         exercise thereof or of any other right.

                  (e) Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty shall be binding
         upon and inure to the benefit of Agent, Lenders, Guarantors and their
         respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that no Guarantor
         may assign or transfer any of its rights and obligations under this
         Guaranty without the prior written consent of Agent and Lenders, and,
         provided, further, that Agent or any Lender may sell, assign and
         delegate their respective rights and obligations hereunder only as
         permitted by the Credit Agreement. All references in this Guaranty to
         any Person shall be deemed to include all permitted successors and
         assigns of such Person.

                  (f) Cumulative Rights, etc. The rights, powers and remedies of
         Agent and Lenders under this Guaranty shall be in addition to all
         rights, powers and remedies given to Agent and Lenders by virtue of any
         applicable law, rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority, the
         Credit Agreement, any other Credit Document or any other agreement, all
         of which rights, powers, and remedies shall be cumulative and may be
         exercised successively or concurrently without impairing Agent's or any
         Lender's rights hereunder. Each Guarantor waives any right to require
         Agent or any Lender to proceed against any Person or to pursue any
         remedy in Agent's or such Lender's power.


                                      C-8

                  (g) Setoff; Security Interest.

                           (i) In addition to any rights and remedies of Lenders
                  provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, with prior
                  notice to Agent but without prior notice to or consent of any
                  Guarantor, any such notice and consent being expressly waived
                  by each Guarantor to the extent permitted by applicable law,
                  upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
                  Default, to set-off and apply against the obligations of each
                  Guarantor any amount owing from such Lender to such Guarantor.
                  The aforesaid right of set-off may be exercised by such Lender
                  against a Guarantor or against any trustee in bankruptcy,
                  debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors,
                  receiver or execution, judgment or attachment creditor of such
                  Guarantor or against anyone else claiming through or against
                  such Guarantor or such trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in
                  possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, receiver,
                  or execution, judgment or attachment creditor, notwithstanding
                  the fact that such right of set-off may not have been
                  exercised by such Lender at any prior time. Each Lender agrees
                  promptly to notify the applicable Guarantor after any such
                  set-off and application made by such Lender, provided that the
                  failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of
                  such set-off and application.

                           (ii) As security for the obligations of each
                  Guarantor hereunder, each Guarantor hereby grants to Agent and
                  each Lender, for the benefit of all Lenders, a continuing
                  security interest in any and all deposit accounts or moneys of
                  such Guarantor now or hereafter maintained with such Lender.
                  Each Lender shall have all of the rights of a secured party
                  with respect to such security interest.

                  (h) Payments Free of Taxes. All payments made by each
         Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be made free and clear of, and
         without deduction or withholding for or on account of, all present and
         future Non-Excluded Taxes. If any Non-Excluded Taxes are required to be
         withheld from any amounts payable to Agent or any Lender hereunder, the
         amounts so payable to Agent or such Lender shall be increased to the
         extent necessary to yield to Agent or such Lender (after payment of all
         Non-Excluded Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable
         hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Guaranty or
         the other Credit Documents, as applicable. If under the laws of the
         applicable jurisdiction, a payment by a Guarantor pursuant to this
         Subparagraph 6(h) to Agent or any Lender may be made without deduction
         or withholding of any Taxes (or with reduced deduction or withholding
         of any Taxes), the Agent and such Lender (as applicable) shall, upon
         written request by the applicable Guarantor, use reasonable efforts to
         file with the appropriate tax authorities and deliver to Guarantor such
         certificates and other evidence requested by Guarantor establishing
         Agent's or Lender's entitlement to such eliminated or reduced
         withholding. Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes are payable by any
         Guarantor, as promptly as possible thereafter, such Guarantor shall
         send to Agent for its own account or for the account of such Lender, as
         the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt
         received by such Guarantor showing payment thereof. If Guarantors fail
         to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing
         authority or fail to remit to Agent the required receipts or other
         required documentary evidence, Guarantors shall indemnify Agent and
         Lenders for any taxes (including interest or penalties) that may become
         payable by Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure. The
         obligations of Guarantors under this Subparagraph 6(h) shall survive
         the payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations and the
         termination of this Guaranty. Nothing contained in this Subparagraph
         6(h) shall require Agent or any Lender to make available any of its tax
         returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems
         to be confidential).

                  (i) Partial Invalidity. If at any time any provision of this
         Guaranty is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect
         under the law or any jurisdiction, neither the legality, validity or
         enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Guaranty nor the
         legality, validity or enforceability of such provision under the law of
         any other jurisdiction shall in any way be affected or impaired
         thereby.

                  (j) Jury Trial. EACH OF GUARANTORS, LENDERS AND AGENT, TO THE
         FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES
         ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY AS TO ANY ISSUE RELATING HERETO IN ANY
         ACTION, PROCEEDING, OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS
         GUARANTY.

                  (k) Counterparts. This Guaranty may be executed in any number
         of identical counterparts, any set of which signed by all the
         Guarantors shall be deemed to constitute a complete, executed original
         for all purposes.

                  (l) Governing Law, Consent to Jurisdiction, Etc.

                           (i) This Guaranty shall be governed by and construed
                  in accordance with the laws of the State of California, except
                  for the purposes of any suit or legal action brought in Mexico
                  in which case it shall be governed by the laws of Mexico.

                           (ii) Each Guarantor irrevocably submits to the
                  non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of
                  California and the courts of the United States of America
                  located in the Northern District of California and, in respect
                  of the Mexican Guarantor, the Mexican Guarantor and the Agent,
                  on behalf of Lenders, also irrevocably submit to the
                  jurisdictions of the courts of the Federal District of Mexico,
                  Mexico, and agrees that any legal action, suit or proceeding
                  arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or any of the
                  other Credit Documents may be brought against such party in
                  any such courts. Final judgment against a Guarantor in any
                  such action, suit or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be
                  enforced in any other jurisdiction by suit on the judgment, a
                  certified or exemplified copy of which shall be conclusive
                  evidence of the judgment, or in any other manner provided by
                  law. Nothing in this Subparagraph 6(l) shall affect the right
                  of Agent or any Lender to commence legal proceedings or
                  otherwise sue any Guarantor in any other appropriate
                  jurisdiction, or concurrently in more than one jurisdiction,
                  or to serve process, pleadings and other papers upon any
                  Guarantor in any manner authorized by the laws of any such
                  jurisdiction. Subject to and except as otherwise provided in
                  paragraph (iii) below in respect of the Mexican Guarantor,
                  each Guarantor agrees that process served either personally or
                  by registered mail shall, to the extent permitted by law,
                  constitutes adequate service of process in any such suit.
                  Without limiting the foregoing, each Guarantor hereby
                  appoints, in the case of any such action or proceeding brought
                  in the courts of or in the State of California, CT
                  Corporation, with offices on the date hereof at 818 West
                  Seventh Street, Los Angeles, California 90017, to receive for
                  it and on its behalf, service of process in the State of
                  California with respect thereto, provided each Guarantor may
                  appoint any other person, reasonably acceptable to Agent, with
                  offices in the State of California to replace such agent for
                  service of process upon delivery to Agent of a reasonably
                  acceptable agreement of such new agent agreeing so to act.
                  Each Guarantor irrevocably waives to the fullest extent
                  permitted by applicable law (A) any objection which it may
                  have now or in the future to the laying of the venue of any
                  such action, suit or proceeding in any court referred to in
                  the first sentence above; (B) any claim that any such action,
                  suit or proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum;
                  (C) its right of removal of any matter commenced by any other
                  party in the courts of the State of California to any court of
                  the United States of America; (D) any immunity which it or its
                  assets may have in respect of its obligations under this
                  Agreement or any other Credit Document from any suit,
                  execution, attachment (whether provisional or final, in aid of
                  execution, before judgment or otherwise) or other legal
                  process; and (E) any right it may have to require the moving
                  party in any suit, action or proceeding brought in any of the
                  courts referred to above arising out of or in connection with
                  this Agreement or any other Credit Document to post security
                  for the costs of any Guarantor or to post a bond or to take
                  similar action.

                           (iii) The Mexican Guarantor hereby irrevocably
                  appoints CT Corporation, Los Angeles Agency, (the "FMM Process
                  Agent"), with an office on the date hereof in 818 West Seventh
                  Street, Los Angeles, California 90017, in the case of any
                  action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
                  Guaranty or any of the other Credit Documents brought in the
                  courts of or in the State of California, as its agent to
                  receive for it and on its behalf service of process in the
                  State of California with respect thereto. Such service may be
                  made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to the
                  Mexican Guarantor in care of the FMM Process Agent at the FMM
                  Process Agent's above address, and the Guarantor hereby
                  irrevocably authorizes and directs the FMM Process Agent to
                  accept such service on its behalf; provided, that for any
                  notice or service of process to be effective under Mexican
                  law, such notice or service of process shall be deemed to have
                  been given or made when delivered either (i) personally,
                  return receipt requested, (ii) by


                                      C-10

                  courier delivery or certified mail, return receipt requested,
                  or (iii) by facsimile followed by personal or courier
                  delivery, return receipt requested. The Mexican Guarantor
                  agrees that a final judgment in any such proceeding shall be
                  conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit
                  on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. For
                  purposes of perfecting the appointment of the FMM Process
                  Agent under the applicable laws of Mexico, the Mexican
                  Guarantor agrees to execute and deliver the power of attorney
                  attached hereto as Attachment 2, formalized before a notary
                  public in Mexico and duly recorded at the Public Registry of
                  Commerce (Registro Publico de Comercio) of the corporate
                  domicile of the Mexican Guarantor, and to execute and deliver
                  any and all other documents (including Mexican notarial deeds)
