under Section 8.20 hereof, as applicable, and accompanied in each case by
authority documents, legal opinions and other supporting documents as required

         Revolving Borrower to repay the Revolving Credit Advances (and all

                                    Borrowers.

         Agent, acting on behalf of the Banks, may, at its option, lend under
         this Section 2 upon the telephone request of a person previously
         authorized (in a writing delivered to the Agent) by the applicable
         Revolving Borrower to make such requests and, in the event Agent,
         acting on behalf of the Banks, makes any such Advance upon a telephone
         request, the requesting officer shall fax to Agent, on the same day as
         such telephone request, a Request for Advance. Revolving Borrowers
         hereby authorize Agent to disburse Advances under this Section 2.3
         pursuant to the telephone instructions of any person purporting to be a
         person identified by name on a written list of persons authorized by
         Autocam and delivered to Agent prior to the date of such request to

         Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Revolving Borrower acknowledges
         that each Borrower shall bear all risk of loss resulting from
         disbursements made upon any telephone request. Each telephone request
         for an Advance shall constitute a certification of the matters set
         forth in the Request for Revolving Credit Advance form as of the date
         of such requested Advance.

         2.4      Disbursement of Advances

                  (a)      Upon receiving any Request for Revolving Credit
         Advance from a Revolving Borrower under Section 2.3 hereof, Agent shall
         promptly notify each Revolving Credit Bank by wire, telex or telephone
         (confirmed by wire, telecopy or telex) of the amount and currency of
         such Advance to be made and the date such Advance is to be made by said
         Bank pursuant to its Percentage of such Advance. Unless such Bank's

                                    Borrower may reasonably direct; and

                           (ii)     for Eurocurrency-based Advances, not later
                                    than 4:00 p.m. (the time of the Agent's

                                    by credit to an account of such Borrower
                                    maintained with Agent's Correspondent or to
                                    such other account or third party as such
                                    Borrower may reasonably direct.

                  (c)      Agent shall deliver the documents and papers
                           received by it for the account of each Bank to such
                           Bank or upon its order. Unless Agent shall have been
                           notified by any Revolving Credit Bank prior to the
                           date of any proposed Revolving Credit Advance that
                           such Bank does not intend to make available to Agent
                           such Bank's Percentage of such Advance, Agent may
                           assume that such Bank has made such amount available
                           to Agent on such date and in such currency, as
                           aforesaid and may, in reliance upon such assumption,
                           make available to the applicable Borrower a
                           corresponding amount. If such amount is not in fact
                           made available to Agent by such Bank, as aforesaid,
                           Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on
                           demand from such Bank. If such Bank does not pay
                           such amount forthwith upon Agent's demand therefor,
                           the Agent shall promptly notify Autocam, and the
                           applicable Borrower shall pay such amount to Agent.
                           Agent shall also be entitled to recover from such
                           Bank or the applicable Borrower, as the case may be,
                           but without duplication, interest on such amount in
                           respect of each day from the date such amount was
                           made available by Agent to such Borrower, to the
                           date such amount is recovered by Agent, at a rate
                           per annum equal to:

                           (i)      in the case of such Bank, for the first two
                                    (2) Business Days such amount remains
                                    unpaid, with respect to Domestic Advances,
                                    the Federal Funds Effective Rate, and with
                                    respect to Eurocurrency-based Advances,
                                    Agent's aggregate marginal cost (including
                                    the cost of maintaining any required
                                    reserves or deposit insurance and of any
                                    fees, penalties, overdraft charges or other
                                    costs or expenses incurred by Agent as a
                                    result of such failure to deliver funds
                                    hereunder) of carrying such amount and
                                    thereafter, at the rate of interest then
                                    applicable to such Revolving Credit
                                    Advances; and


                                      E-34

                           (ii)     in the case of such Borrower, the rate of
                                    interest then applicable to such Advance of
                                    the Revolving Credit.

         The obligation of any Bank to make any Advance of the Revolving Credit
         hereunder shall not be affected by the failure of any other Bank to
         make any Advance hereunder, and no Bank shall have any liability to
         Autocam or any of its Subsidiaries, the Agent, any other Bank, or any
         other party for another Bank's failure to make any loan or Advance
         hereunder. In the event any Revolving Credit Bank shall fail to advance
         any amounts required to be advanced in accordance with the terms of
         this Article 2 (a "Defaulting Bank"), the Agent shall promptly provide
         written notice thereof to the Borrowers and to each other Revolving
         Credit Bank (each such other Revolving Credit Bank being referred to in
         this Section as a "Non-Defaulting Bank"). Each Non-Defaulting Bank
         shall have ten (10) Business Days from receipt of said notice to
         exercise its option to agree to enter into an agreement pursuant to
         which the Non-Defaulting Bank shall assume the Defaulting Bank's rights
         and obligations under this Agreement, its Notes and the other Loan
         Documents. The Non-Defaulting Bank shall exercise such option by
         providing written notice of same to the Defaulting Bank (and if there
         is more than one Non-Defaulting Bank, the assignment agreement shall be
         entered into with the Non-Defaulting Bank who first notifies the
         Defaulting Bank of its decision to exercise said option) and to
         Borrowers. If no Non-Defaulting Bank shall exercise the above-described
         option within the said ten (10) Business Day period and if Borrowers
         shall, within thirty (30) days of delivering the notice described
         above, advise such Defaulting Bank of another bank or financial
         institution willing to assume such Defaulting Bank's rights and
         obligations under this Agreement, its Notes and the other Loan
         Documents (each such bank or financial institution being hereinafter
         referred to as a "Potential Financial Institution"), such Defaulting
         Bank shall assign its said rights and obligations to the Potential
         Financial Institution.

         2.5      Swing Line Advances. (a) The Swing Line Bank shall, on the 
terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth (including without
limitation Section 2.5(c) hereof), make one or more advances in Dollars or in
any Alternative Currency (each such advance being a "Swing Line Advance") to any
of the Revolving Borrowers (provided that any Permitted Borrower requesting
Swing Line Advances hereunder has become a party to this Agreement, either by
execution and delivery of this Agreement, or by complying with the terms and
conditions set forth in Section 2.1(a) hereof), from time to time on any
Business Day during the period from the date hereof to (but excluding) the
Revolving Credit Maturity Date in an aggregate amount, based on the Dollar
Amount of any such Advances outstanding in Dollars and the Current Dollar
Equivalent of any such Advances outstanding in Alternative Currencies, not to
exceed at any time outstanding the Swing Line Maximum Amount. Swing Line Bank
shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts
evidencing indebtedness of each of the Revolving Borrowers to Swing Line Bank
resulting from each Swing Line Advance of such Bank from time to time, including
the amounts of principal and interest payable thereon and paid to such Bank from
time to time. The entries made in such account or accounts of Swing Line Bank
shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be conclusive evidence, absent
manifest error, of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Revolving
Borrower therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of Swing Line
Bank to maintain such account, as applicable, or any error therein, shall not in
any manner affect the obligation of each of each Revolving Borrower to repay the
Swing Line Advances (and all other amounts owing with respect thereto) made to
such Revolving Borrower by Swing Line Bank in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement. Advances, repayments and readvances under the Swing Line may be made,
subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Each Swing Line Advance
shall mature and the principal amount thereof shall be due and payable by the
applicable Revolving Borrower on the last day of the Interest Period applicable
thereto (if any).

         The Revolving Borrowers agree that, upon the written request of Swing
Line Bank (with a copy to Autocam), each of the Revolving Borrowers will execute
and deliver to Swing Line Bank Swing Line Notes; provided, that the delivery of
such Swing Line Notes shall not be a condition precedent to the Effective Date.

                  (b)      Each Swing Line Advance shall, from time to time 
after the date of such Advance, bear interest at its Applicable Interest Rate.
The amount and date of each Swing Line Advance, its Applicable Interest Rate,
its Interest Period, if any, and the amount and date of any repayment shall be
noted on Swing Line Bank's account maintained pursuant to Section 2.5(a), which
records will be conclusive evidence thereof, absent manifest error; provided,
however, that any failure by the Swing Line Bank to record any such information
shall not relieve the applicable Revolving Borrower of its obligation to repay
the outstanding principal amount of such Advance, all interest accrued thereon
and any amount payable with respect thereto in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

                  (c)      Autocam or a Permitted Borrower may request a Swing 
Line Advance only after delivery to Swing Line Bank of a Request for Swing Line
Advance executed by a person previously authorized in a writing delivered to the
Agent by the applicable Revolving Borrower in writing to make such requests,
subject to the following and to the remaining provisions hereof:

requested Swing Line Advance, plus the aggregate principal amount of all other
Swing Line Advances then outstanding hereunder (including any other Swing Line

<PAGE>   39

                    (e)    (i)     The Agent, at any time in its sole and
absolute discretion, may on behalf of the applicable Revolving Borrower (each of
which hereby irrevocably directs the Agent to act on its behalf) request each of
the Revolving Credit Banks (including the Swing Line Bank in its capacity as a
Bank) to make an Advance of the Revolving Credit to each of the Revolving
Borrowers, for each Permitted Currency in which Swing Line Advances are
outstanding to such party, in an amount (in the applicable Permitted Currency,
determined in accordance with Section 2.11(b) hereof) equal to such Revolving
Credit Bank's Percentage of the principal amount of the aggregate Swing Line
Advances outstanding in each Permitted Currency to each such party on the date
such notice is given (the "Refunded Swing Line Advances"); provided however that
Swing Line Advances which are carried at the Quoted Rate or the
Eurocurrency-based Rate which are converted to Revolving Credit Advances at the
request of the Agent at a time when no Default or Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, shall not be subject to Section 12.1 and no losses, costs or
expenses may be assessed by the Swing Line Bank against any Revolving Borrower
or the Revolving Credit Banks as a consequence of such conversion. In the case
of each Refunded Swing Line Advance outstanding in Dollars, the applicable
Advance of the Revolving Credit used to refund such Swing Line Advance shall be
a Prime-based Advance. In the case of each Refunded Swing Line Advance
outstanding in any Alternative Currency, the applicable Advance of the Revolving
Credit used to refund such Swing Line Advance shall be an Advance in the
applicable Alternative Currency, with an Interest Period of one month (or any
lesser number of days selected by Agent in consultation with the Revolving
Credit Banks). In connection with the making of any such Refunded Swing Line
Advances or the purchase of a participation interest in Swing Line Advances
under Section 2.5(e)(ii) hereof, the Swing Line Bank shall retain its claim
against the applicable Revolving Borrower for any unpaid interest or fees in
respect thereof. Unless any of the events described in Section 10.1(k) hereof
shall have occurred (in which event the procedures of subparagraph (ii) of this
Section 2.5(e) shall apply) and regardless of whether the conditions precedent
set forth in this Agreement to the making of an Advance of the Revolving Credit
are then satisfied but subject to Section 2.5(e)(iii), each Revolving Credit
Bank shall make the proceeds of its Advance of the Revolving Credit available to
the Agent for the benefit of the Swing Line Bank at the office of the Agent
specified in Section 2.4(a) hereof prior to 11:00 a.m. Detroit time (for
Domestic Advances) on the Business Day next succeeding the date such notice is
given, and, in the case of any Eurocurrency-based Advance, prior to 2:00 p.m.
Detroit time on the third Business Day following the date such notice is given,
in each case in immediately available funds in the applicable Permitted
Currency. The proceeds of such Advances of the Revolving Credit shall be
immediately applied to repay the Refunded Swing Line Advances in accordance with
the provisions of Section 11.1 hereof.

                           (ii)    If, prior to the making of an Advance of the
Revolving Credit pursuant to subparagraph (i) of this Section 2.5(e), one of the
events described in Section 10.1(k) hereof shall have occurred, each Revolving
Credit Bank will, on the date such Advance of the Revolving Credit was to have
been made, purchase from the Swing Line Bank an undivided participating interest
in each Refunded Swing Line Advance in an amount equal to its Percentage of such
Refunded Swing Line Advance. Each Revolving Credit Bank within the time periods
specified in Section 2.5(e)(i) hereof, as applicable, shall immediately transfer
to the Agent, in immediately available funds in the applicable Permitted
Currency of such Swing Line Advance, the amount of its participation and upon
receipt thereof the Agent will deliver to such Bank a Swing Line Participation
Certificate in the form of Exhibit E evidencing such participation.

                    (iii)     Each Revolving Credit Bank's obligation to make
Advances of the Revolving Credit and to purchase participation interests in
accordance with clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 2.5(e) shall be absolute
and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including,
without limitation, (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other
right which such Bank may have against Swing Line Bank, the Revolving Borrowers
or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or
continuance of any Default or Event of Default; (iii) any adverse change in the
condition (financial or otherwise) of any Borrower or any other Person; (iv) any
breach of this Agreement by any Borrower or any other Person; (v) any inability
of the Borrowers to satisfy the conditions precedent to borrowing set forth in
this Agreement on the date upon which such participating interest is to be
purchased; (vi) the termination of the Revolving Credit Aggregate Commitment
hereunder; or (vii) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever,
whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. If any Revolving Credit Bank
does not make available to the Agent the amount required pursuant to clause (i)
or (ii) above, as the case may be, the Agent shall be entitled to recover such
amount on demand from such Bank, together with interest thereon for each day
from the date of non-payment until such amount is paid in full (x) for the first
two (2) Business Days such amount remains unpaid, at the Federal Funds Effective
Rate for Advances in Dollars (other than eurodollars) and for Eurocurrency-based
Advances, the Agent's marginal cost (including the cost of maintaining any
required reserves or deposit insurance and of any fees, penalties, overdraft
charges or other costs or expenses incurred by Agent as a result of such failure
to deliver funds hereunder) of carrying such amount and (y) thereafter, at the
rate of interest then applicable to such Swing Line Advances.

         Notwithstanding the foregoing however no Revolving Credit Bank shall be
required to make any Revolving Credit Advance to refund a Swing Line Advance or
to purchase a participation in a Swing Line Advance if prior to the making of
the Swing Line Advance by the Swing Line Bank, the Agent had obtained actual
knowledge that an Event of Default had occurred and was continuing; provided,
however that the obligation of the Banks to make such Revolving Credit Advances
shall be reinstated upon the date of which such Event of Default has been waived
by the requisite Banks, as applicable.

         2.6      Prime-based Interest Payments Interest on the unpaid balance 
of all Prime-based Advances of the Revolving Credit and all Swing Line Advances
carried at the Prime-based Rate from time to time outstanding shall accrue from
the date of such Advance to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date (and until paid),
at a per annum interest rate equal to the Prime-based Rate, and shall be payable
in immediately available funds quarterly commencing on the first day of the
calendar quarter next succeeding the calendar quarter during which the initial
Advance of the Revolving Credit or Swing Line Advance, as the case may be, is
made and on the first day of each calendar quarter thereafter. Interest accruing
at the Prime-based Rate shall be computed on the basis of a 360 day year and
assessed for the actual number of days elapsed, and in such computation effect
shall be given to any change in the interest rate resulting from a change in the
Prime-based Rate on the date of such change in the Prime-based Rate.

         2.7      Eurocurrency-based Interest Payments and Quoted Rate Interest 
Payments

         (a)      Interest on each Eurocurrency-based Advance of the Revolving 
Credit shall accrue at its Applicable Interest Rate and shall be payable in
immediately available funds on the last day of the Interest Period applicable
thereto (and, if any Interest Period shall exceed three months, then on the last
Business Day of the third month of such Interest Period, and at three month
intervals thereafter). Interest accruing at the Eurocurrency-based Rate shall be
computed on the basis of a 360 day year (except that any such Advances made in
Sterling or any other Alternative Currency with respect to which applicable law
or market custom so requires shall be calculated based on a 365 day year, or as
otherwise required under applicable law or market custom) and assessed for the
actual number of days elapsed from the first day of the Interest Period
applicable thereto to but not including the last day thereof. Interest due on a
Eurocurrency-based Advance made in an Alternative Currency shall be paid in such
Alternative Currency.


                                      E-40
<PAGE>   41

         (b)      Interest on each Quoted Rate Advance of the Swing Line shall 
accrue at its Quoted Rate and shall be payable in immediately available funds on
the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto. Interest accruing at the
Quoted Rate shall be computed on the basis of a 360 day year and assessed for
the actual number of days elapsed from the first day of the Interest Period
applicable thereto to, but not including the last day thereof. Interest due on a
Eurocurrency-based Advance made in an Alternative Currency shall be paid in such
Alternative Currency.

         2.8      Interest Payments on Conversions Notwithstanding anything to 
the contrary in the preceding sections, all accrued and unpaid interest on any
Advance converted pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof shall be due and payable in
full on the date such Advance is converted.

         2.9      Interest on Default In the event and so long as any Event of
Default shall exist, interest shall be payable daily on all Eurocurrency-based
Advances of the Revolving Credit and Quoted Rate Advances from time to time
outstanding at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Interest Rate plus two
percent (2%) for the remainder of the then existing Interest Period, if any, and
at all other such times, with respect to Prime-based Advances from time to time
outstanding, at a per annum rate equal to the Prime-based Rate plus two percent
(2%), and, with respect to Eurocurrency-based Advances thereof in any
Alternative Currency from time to time outstanding, (i) at a per annum rate
calculated by the Agent, whose determination shall be conclusive absent manifest
error, on a daily basis, equal to two percent (2%) above the interest rate per
annum at which one (1) day deposits (or, if such amount due remains unpaid for
more than three (3) Business Days, then for such other period of time as the
Agent may elect which shall in no event be longer than six (6) months) in the
relevant eurocurrency in the amount of such overdue payment due to the Agent are
offered by the Agent's Eurocurrency Lending Office for the applicable period
determined as provided above, or (ii) if at any such time such deposits are not
offered by Eurocurrency Lending Office, then at a rate per annum equal to two
percent (2%) above the rate determined by the Agent to be its aggregate marginal
cost (including the cost of maintaining any required reserves or deposit
insurance) of carrying the amount of such Eurocurrency-based Advance.

         2.10     Prepayment of Revolving Credit Advances (a) The Revolving
Borrowers may prepay all or part of the outstanding balance of any Prime-based
Advance(s) of the Revolving Credit at any time, provided that the amount of any
partial prepayment shall be at least Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000)
and, after giving effect to any such partial prepayment, the aggregate balance
of Prime-based Advance(s) of the Revolving Credit remaining outstanding, if any,
shall be at least One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000). The
Revolving Borrowers may prepay all or part of any Eurocurrency-based Advance
(subject to not less than two (2) Business Days' notice to Agent) provided that
the amount of any such partial prepayment shall be at least Five Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($500,000), or the Current Dollar Equivalent thereof in an
Alternative Currency, and, after giving effect to any such partial prepayment,
the unpaid portion of such Advance which is refunded or converted under Section
2.3 hereof shall be at least Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
($2,500,000) or the Current Dollar Equivalent thereof in an Alternative
Currency; provided further, however that if the prepayment of a
Eurocurrency-based Advance is made on a day other than the last Business Day of
the then current Interest Period applicable to such Eurocurrency-based Advance,
then, pursuant to Section 12.1, the applicable Borrower shall compensate the
Revolving Credit Banks for any losses.


                                      E-41
<PAGE>   42

                  (b)      Revolving Borrowers may prepay all or part of the
outstanding balance of any Swing Line Advance carried at the Prime-based Rate at
any time, provided that the amount of any partial prepayment shall be at least
Twenty Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) and, after giving effect to any such
partial prepayment, the aggregate balance of such Swing Line Advances remaining
outstanding, if any, shall be at least One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000).
The Revolving Borrowers may prepay all or part of any Swing Line Advances
carried at the Eurocurrency-based Rate or the Quoted Rate (subject to not less
than two (2) Business Days' notice to Swing Line Bank and Agent), provided that
the amount of any such partial payment shall be at least Twenty Five Thousand
Dollars ($25,000), after giving effect of any such partial prepayment, and the
unpaid portion of such Advance which is refunded or converted under Section
2.5(c) hereof shall be at least Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000);
provided further, however that if the prepayment of such Advance is made on a
day other than the last Business Day of the then current Interest Period
applicable to such Advance (if any), then, pursuant to Section 12.1, the
applicable Borrower shall compensate the Revolving Credit Banks for any losses.

                  (c)      Any prepayment made in accordance with this Section 
shall be subject to Section 12.1 hereof, but otherwise without premium, penalty
or prejudice to the right to readvance under the terms of this Agreement.

         2.11     Determination, Denomination and Redenomination of Alternative 
Currency Advances. Whenever, pursuant to any provision of this Agreement:

                  (a)      an Advance of the Revolving Credit is initially 
funded, as opposed to any refunding or conversion thereof, in an Alternative
Currency, the amount to be advanced hereunder will be the equivalent in such
Alternative Currency of the Dollar Amount of such Advance;

                  (b)      an existing Advance of the Revolving Credit 
denominated in an Alternative Currency is to be refunded, in whole or in part,
with an Advance denominated in the same Alternative Currency, the amount of the
new Advance shall be continued in the amount of the Alternative Currency so
refunded;

                  (c)      an existing Advance of the Revolving Credit 
denominated in an Alternative Currency is to be converted, in whole or in part,
to an Advance denominated in another Alternative Currency, the amount of the new
Advance shall be that amount of the Alternative Currency of the new Advance
which may be purchased, using the most favorable spot exchange rate determined
by Agent to be available to it for the sale of Dollars for such other
Alternative Currency at approximately 11:00 a.m. (Detroit time) two (2) Business
Days prior to the last day of the Eurocurrency Interest Period applicable to the
existing Advance, with the Dollar Amount of the existing Advance, or portion
thereof being converted; and

                  (d)      an existing Advance of the Revolving Credit 
denominated in an Alternative Currency is to be converted, in whole or in part,
to an Advance denominated in Dollars, the amount of the new Advance shall be the
Dollar Amount of the existing Advance, or portion thereof being converted
(determined as aforesaid).

<PAGE>   43
         2.12     Prime-based Advance in Absence of Election or Upon Default If,
(a) as to any outstanding Eurocurrency-based Advance of the Revolving Credit,
Agent has not received payment of all outstanding principal and accrued interest
on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or does not receive a
timely Request for Advance meeting the requirements of Section 2.3 or 2.5(c)
hereof with respect to the refunding or conversion of such Advance, or (b) if
any Advance denominated in an Alternative Currency or any deemed Advance under
Section 3.6 hereof in respect of a Letter of Credit denominated in an
Alternative Currency cannot be refunded or made, as the case may be, in such
Alternative Currency by virtue of Section 12.3 hereof, or (c) subject to Section
2.9 hereof, if on such day a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing, then the principal amount thereof which is not then prepaid
in the case of a Eurocurrency-based Advance shall, absent a contrary election of
the Majority Revolving Credit Banks, be converted automatically to a Prime-based
Advance and the Agent shall thereafter promptly notify Autocam of said action.
If a Eurocurrency-based Advance converted hereunder is payable in an Alternative
Currency, the Prime-based Advance shall be in an amount equal to the Dollar
Amount of such Eurocurrency-based Advance at such time and the Agent and the
Revolving Credit Banks shall use said Prime-based Advance to fund payment of the
Alternative Currency obligation, all subject to the provisions of Section 2.14
hereof. Revolving Borrowers shall reimburse the Agent and the Banks on demand
for any costs incurred by the Agent or any of the Banks, as applicable,
resulting from the conversion pursuant to this Section 2.12 of
Eurocurrency-based Advances payable in an Alternative Currency to Prime-based
Advances.

         2.13     Revolving Credit Facility Fee From the Effective Date to the
Revolving Credit Maturity Date, the Revolving Borrowers shall pay to the Agent
for distribution to the Revolving Credit Banks pro-rata in accordance with their
respective Percentages, a Revolving Credit Facility Fee quarterly in arrears
commencing January 1, 1999 (in respect of the prior fiscal quarter or portion
thereof), and on the first day of each fiscal quarter thereafter. The Revolving
Credit Facility Fee shall be equal to the Revolving Credit Aggregate Commitment
(whether used or unused) times the Applicable Fee Percentage computed on a daily
basis. The Revolving Credit Facility Fee shall be computed on the basis of a
year of three hundred sixty (360) days and assessed for the actual number of
days elapsed. Whenever any payment of the Revolving Credit Facility Fee shall be
due on a day which is not a Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be
extended to the next Business Day. Upon receipt of such payment, Agent shall
make prompt payment to each Revolving Credit Bank of its share of the Revolving
Credit Facility Fee based upon its respective Percentage. It is expressly
understood that the Revolving Credit Facility Fees described in this Section are
not refundable under any circumstances.

         2.14     Currency Appreciation; Mandatory Reduction of Indebtedness

         (a)      Revolving Credit Aggregate Commitment. If at any time and for
any reason, the sum of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all
Revolving Credit Advances and all Swing Line Advances in Dollars and the
aggregate outstanding Current Dollar Equivalent of all Revolving Credit Advances
and all Swing Line Advances in any Alternative Currency as of such time, plus
the aggregate amount of Letter of all Credit Obligations which shall be
outstanding (based on the Dollar Amount of the undrawn portion of any Letters of
Credit denominated in Dollars and the Current Dollar Equivalent of the undrawn
portion of any Letters of Credit denominated in any Alternative Currency), as of
such time exceeds the applicable Revolving Credit Aggregate Commitment (as used
in this clause (a), the "Excess"), the Revolving Borrowers shall:

                  (i)      immediately repay that portion of such Indebtedness 
         then carried as a Prime-based Advance, if any, by the Dollar Amount of
         such Excess, and/or reduce any pending request for an Advance in
         Dollars on such day by the Dollar Amount of the Excess, to the extent
         thereof; and


                                      E-43
<PAGE>   44

                  (ii)     on the last day of each Interest Period of any
         Eurocurrency-based Advance outstanding as of such time, until the
         necessary reductions of Indebtedness under this Section 2.14(a) have
         been fully made, repay the Indebtedness carried in such Advances and/or
         reduce any requests for refunding or conversion of such Advances
         submitted (or to be submitted) by the applicable Borrower in respect of
         such Advances, by the amount in Dollars or the applicable Alternative
         Currency, as the case may be, of the Excess, to the extent thereof.

Compliance with this Section 2.14(a) shall be tested on a daily or other basis
satisfactory to Agent in its sole discretion; provided that, so long as no
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at any time while
the aggregate Advances of the Revolving Credit available to be borrowed
hereunder (based on the Revolving Credit Aggregate Commitment then in effect)
equal or exceed Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000), compliance with this Section
2.14(a) shall be tested as of the last day of each calendar quarter.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
any Default or Event of Default, or if any Excess remains after recalculating
said Excess based on ninety-five percent (95%) of the Current Dollar Equivalent
of any Advances or Letters of Credit denominated in Alternative Currencies (and
one hundred percent (100%) of any Advances or Letters of Credit denominated in
Dollars), the Revolving Borrowers shall be obligated immediately to reduce the
foregoing Indebtedness hereunder by an amount sufficient to eliminate such
Excess.

         (b)      Multicurrency Sublimit. If at any time and for any reason, the
sum of the aggregate Current Dollar Equivalent of (i) all Revolving Credit
Advances plus all Swing Line Advances outstanding hereunder in any Alternative
Currency plus (ii) all Letter of Credit Obligations denominated in any
Alternative Currency, exceeds the Multicurrency Sublimit (as used in this clause
(b), the "Excess"), then in each case, the Revolving Borrowers shall:

                  (i)      immediately reduce on such day any pending request 
         for an Advance in any Alternative Currency submitted by any Revolving
         Borrower by the Dollar Amount of such Excess, to the extent thereof;
         and

                  (ii)     on the last day of each Interest Period of any 
         Advance outstanding in any Alternative Currency to any Revolving
         Borrower as of such time, until the necessary reductions of
         Indebtedness under this Section 2.14(b) have been fully made, repay
         such Indebtedness carried in such Advances and/or reduce any requests
         for refunding or conversion of such Advances submitted (or to be
         submitted) by the Borrower in respect of such Advances, by the amount
         in the applicable Alternative Currency, as the case may be, of such
         Excess, to the extent thereof.

Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
compliance with this Section 2.14(b) shall be tested as of the last day of each
calendar quarter or, upon the written request of the Revolving Borrowers from
time to time, as of the last day of each calendar month, provided the Revolving
Borrowers furnish Agent with current monthly financial statements complying with
the requirements set forth in Section 8.1(b) hereof. Upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default, compliance with this
Section 2.14(b) shall be tested on a daily or other basis satisfactory to Agent
in its sole discretion.

<PAGE>   45

         (c)      Permitted Borrower Sublimit. If at any time and for any reason
with respect to any Permitted Borrower, the aggregate principal amount (tested
in the manner set forth in clause (a) above) of all Revolving Credit Advances
and all Swing Line Advances outstanding hereunder to such Permitted Borrower,
plus the aggregate undrawn portion of all Letter of Credit Obligations for the
account of such Permitted Borrower (tested in the manner set forth in clause (a)
above), which Advances and Letters of Credit are made or issued, or to be made
or issued, in Dollars and ninety percent (90%) of the aggregate Current Dollar
Equivalent of all such Advances and Letters of Credit (including unreimbursed
draws) hereunder for the account of such Permitted Borrower in any Alternative
Currency as of such time, exceeds the Permitted Borrower Sublimit applicable to
such Permitted Borrower (as used in this clause (c), the "Excess"), then in each
case, such Permitted Borrower shall:

                  (i)      immediately repay that portion of the Indebtedness
         outstanding to such Permitted Borrower then carried as a Prime-based
         Advance, if any, by the Dollar Amount of such Excess, and/or reduce on
         such day any pending request for an Advance in Dollars submitted by
         such Permitted Borrower by the Dollar Amount of such Excess, to the
         extent thereof; and

                  (ii)     on the last day of each Interest Period of any
         Eurocurrency-based Advance outstanding to such Permitted Borrower as of
         such time, until the necessary reductions of Indebtedness under this
         Section 2.14(c) have been fully made, repay such Indebtedness carried
         in such Advances and/or reduce any requests for refunding or conversion
         of such Advances submitted (or to be submitted) by such Permitted
         Borrower in respect of such Advances, by the amount in Dollars or the
         applicable Alternative Currency, as the case may be, of such Excess, to
         the extent thereof.

Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
each Permitted Borrower's compliance with this Section 2.14(c) shall be tested
as of the last day of each calendar quarter or, upon the written request of the
Permitted Borrowers from time to time, as of the last day of each calendar
month, provided the Revolving Borrowers furnish Agent with current monthly
financial statements complying with the requirements set forth in Section 8.1(b)
hereof. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default or Event
of Default, compliance with this Section 2.14(c) shall be tested on a daily or
other basis satisfactory to Agent in its sole discretion.

         2.15     Optional Reduction or Termination of Revolving Credit 
Aggregate Commitment. Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, Autocam may upon at least five Business Days' prior written
notice to the Agent, permanently reduce the Revolving Credit Aggregate
Commitment in whole at any time, or in part from time to time, without premium
or penalty, provided that: (i) each partial reduction of the Revolving Credit
Aggregate Commitment shall be in an aggregate amount equal to Five Million
Dollars ($5,000,000) or a larger integral multiple of One Million Dollars
($1,000,000); (ii) each reduction shall be accompanied by the payment of the
Revolving Credit Facility Fee, if any, accrued to the date of such reduction;
(iii) the applicable Borrower shall prepay in accordance with the terms hereof
the amount, if any, by which the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Advances
(using the Current Dollar Equivalent of any such Advance outstanding in any
Alternative Currency) of the Revolving Credit, plus the aggregate principal
amount of Swing Line Advances outstanding hereunder, plus the aggregate undrawn
amount of outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations (using the Current Dollar
Equivalent thereof for any Letters of Credit denominated in any Alternative
Currency), exceeds the amount of the then applicable Revolving Credit Aggregate
Commitment as so reduced, together with interest thereon to the date of
prepayment; and (iv) no reduction shall reduce the Revolving Credit Aggregate
Commitment to an amount which is less than the aggregate undrawn amount of any
Letters of Credit outstanding at such time; provided, however that if the
termination or reduction of the Revolving Credit Aggregate Commitment requires
the prepayment of a Eurocurrency-based Advance or a Quoted Rate Advance and
such termination or reduction is made on a day other than the last Business Day
of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Eurocurrency-based
Advance or such Quoted Rate Advance, then, pursuant to Section 12.1, the
applicable Borrower shall compensate the Revolving Credit Banks for any losses.
Reductions of the Revolving Credit Aggregate Commitment and any accompanying
prepayments of Advances of the Revolving Credit shall be distributed by Agent
to each Revolving Credit Bank in accordance with such Bank's Percentage
thereof, and will not be available for reinstatement by or readvance to any
Borrower, and any accompanying prepayments of Advances of the Swing Line shall
be distributed by Agent to the Swing Line Bank and will not be available for
reinstatement by or readvance to the Borrowers. Any reductions of the Revolving
Credit Aggregate Commitment hereunder shall reduce each Bank's portion thereof
proportionately (based on the applicable Percentages), and shall be permanent
and irrevocable. Any payments made pursuant to this Section shall be applied
first to outstanding Prime-based Advances under the Revolving Credit, next to
Swing Line Advances carried at the Prime-based Rate, next to Eurocurrency-based
Advances of the Revolving Credit and then to Swing Line Advances carried at the
Quoted Rate.
        
         2.16     Extension of Revolving Credit Maturity Date (a) Provided that
no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Revolving
Borrowers may, by written notice to Agent (with sufficient copies for each
Revolving Credit Bank) (which notice shall be irrevocable and which shall not
be deemed effective unless actually received by Agent) prior to October 31, but
not before October 1 of each year beginning in 1999, request that the Revolving
Credit Banks extend the then applicable Revolving Credit Maturity Date to a
date that is one year later than the Revolving Credit Maturity Date then in
effect (each such request, a "Request"). Each Revolving Credit Bank shall, not
later than December 1 of such year, give written notice to the Agent stating
whether such Bank is willing to extend the Revolving Credit Maturity Date as
requested. If Agent has received the aforesaid written approvals of such
Request from each of the Revolving Credit Banks, then, effective upon the date
of Agent's receipt of all such written approvals from the Banks, as aforesaid,
the Revolving Credit Maturity Date shall be so extended for such additional one
year period, the term Revolving Credit Maturity Date shall mean such extended
date and Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers that such extension has
occurred.

<PAGE>   47

                  (b)      If (i) any Revolving Credit Bank gives the Agent 
written notice that it is unwilling to extend the Revolving Credit Maturity
Date as requested or (ii) any Revolving Credit Bank fails to provide written
approval to Agent of such a Request on or before December 15 of such year, then
(w) the Revolving Credit Banks shall be deemed to have declined to extend the
Revolving Credit Maturity Date, (x) the then-current Revolving Credit Maturity
Date shall remain in effect (with no further right on the part of Borrowers to
request extensions thereof under this Section 2.16), and (y) the commitments of
the Revolving Credit Banks to make Advances of the Revolving Credit hereunder
shall terminate on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date then in effect, and Agent
shall promptly notify Revolving Borrowers thereof.
        
         2.17     Application of Advances. Advances of the Revolving Credit
(including Swing Line Advances) shall be available, subject to the terms hereof,
to fund working capital needs, Permitted Acquisitions or other general corporate
purposes of the Borrowers.

3.       LETTERS OF CREDIT

         3.1      Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, Agent shall through the Issuing Office, at any time and from time to
time from and after the date hereof until thirty (30) days prior to the
Revolving Credit Maturity Date, upon the written request of an Account
Party(ies) accompanied by a duly executed Letter of Credit Agreement and such
other documentation related to the requested Letter of Credit as the Agent may
require, issue Letters of Credit for the account of such Account Party(ies), in

                  (f)      no order, judgment or decree of any court, arbitrator
or governmental authority shall purport by its terms to enjoin or restrain Agent
from issuing the Letter of Credit requested, or any Revolving Credit Bank from
taking an assignment of its Percentage thereof pursuant to Section 3.6 hereof,
and no law, rule, regulation, request or directive (whether or not having the
force of law) shall prohibit or request that Agent refrain from issuing, or any
Revolving Credit Bank refrain from taking an assignment of its Percentage of,
the Letter of Credit requested or letters of credit generally;

                  (g)      there shall have been no introduction of or change in
the interpretation of any law or regulation that would make it unlawful or 
unduly burdensome for the Agent to issue or any Revolving Credit Bank to take an

                  (c)      If any change in any law or regulation or in the
interpretation thereof by any court or administrative or governmental authority
charged with the administration thereof shall either (i) impose, modify or cause

requirement against letters of credit issued or participated in by, or assets
held by, or deposits in or for the account of, Agent or any Revolving Credit
Bank or (ii) impose on Agent or any Revolving Credit Bank any other condition
regarding this Agreement, the Letters of Credit or any participations in such
Letters of Credit, and the result of any event referred to in clause (i) or (ii)
above shall be to increase the cost or expense to Agent or such Bank of issuing
or maintaining or participating in any of the Letters of Credit (which increase
in cost or expense shall be determined by the Agent's or such Bank's reasonable
allocation of the aggregate of such cost increases and expenses resulting from
such events), then, upon demand by the Agent or such Bank, as the case may be,
the applicable Account Party shall, within thirty (30) days following demand for
payment, pay to Agent or such Bank, as the case may be, from time to time as
specified by the Agent or such Bank, additional amounts which shall be
sufficient to compensate the Agent or such Bank for such increased cost and
expense, together with interest on each such amount from ten days after the date
demanded until payment in full thereof at the Prime-based Rate. A certificate as
to such increased cost or expense incurred by the Agent or such Bank, as the
case may be, as a result of any event mentioned in clause (i) or (ii) above,
submitted to the applicable Account Party, shall be conclusive evidence, absent
manifest error, as to the amount thereof.

                  (d)      All payments by the Revolving Borrowers to the Agent
or the Revolving Credit Banks under this Section 3.4 shall be made in Dollars

of the Agent as may be designated from time to time by written notice to the
Borrowers by the Agent. The fees described in clause (a) and (b) above shall be

(or such lesser period, if applicable, for Letters of Credit issued with stated
expiration dates of less than three months) upon the issuance of each such
Letter of Credit, and shall be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year and
assessed for the actual number of days from the date of the issuance thereof to

addition to the Letter of Credit Fees, the Borrowers and the applicable Account
Party(ies) shall pay, for the sole account of the Agent, standard documentation,
administration, payment and cancellation charges assessed by Agent or the
Issuing Office, at the times, in the amounts and on the terms set forth or to be
set forth from time to time in the standard fee schedule of the Issuing Office

         3.6      Drawings and Demands for Payment Under Letters of Credit.

                  (a)      The Revolving Borrowers and each applicable Account
Party agree to pay to the Agent, on the day on which the Agent shall honor a
draft or other demand for payment presented or made under any Letter of Credit,
an amount equal to the amount paid by the Agent in respect of such draft or
other demand under such Letter of Credit and all expenses paid or incurred by
the Agent relative thereto. Unless the Revolving Borrowers or the applicable
Account Party shall have made such payment to the Agent on such day, upon each
such payment by the Agent, the Agent shall be deemed to have disbursed to the
Borrowers or the applicable Account Party, and the Borrowers or the applicable
Account Party shall be deemed to have elected to substitute for its
reimbursement obligation, with respect to Letters of Credit denominated in
Dollars, a Prime-based Advance of the Revolving Credit and, with respect to
Letters of Credit denominated in any Alternative Currency, a Eurocurrency-based
Advance of the Revolving Credit in the applicable Alternative Currency with an
Interest Period, commencing three (3) Business Days following the date of
Agent's payment pursuant to the applicable Letter of Credit, of one month (or,
if unavailable, such other Interest Period as selected by Agent in its sole
discretion), in each case for the account of the Revolving Credit Banks in an
amount equal to the amount so paid by the Agent in respect of such draft or
other demand under such Letter of Credit. Such Prime-based Advance or
Eurocurrency-based Advance shall be deemed disbursed notwithstanding any
failure to satisfy any conditions for disbursement of any Advance set forth in
Section 2 hereof and, to the extent of the Advances so disbursed, the
reimbursement obligation of the Borrowers or the applicable Account Party under
this Section 3.6 shall be deemed satisfied, provided that, with respect to any
such Eurocurrency-based Advance deemed to have been made hereunder, the
Borrowers or the applicable Permitted Borrower shall also be obligated to pay
to the Agent, for Agent's sole account, interest on the aggregate amount paid
by the Agent under the applicable draft or other demand for payment at Agent's
aggregate marginal cost (including the cost of maintaining any required
reserves or deposit insurance and of any fees, penalties, overdraft charges or
other costs or expenses incurred by Agent as a result of such failure to
deliver funds hereunder) of carrying such amount plus the Applicable Margin
then in effect for Eurocurrency-based Advances, from the date of Agent's
payment pursuant to any Letter of Credit to the date of the commencement of the
Interest Period for the applicable Eurocurrency-based Advance deemed to have
been made, as aforesaid, such interest (the "Gap Interest") to be due and
payable on the last day of the initial Interest Period established for such
deemed Advance.
        
                  (b)      If the Agent shall honor a draft or other demand for
payment presented or made under any Letter of Credit, the Agent shall provide
notice thereof to the Borrowers and the applicable Account Party on the date
such draft or demand is honored, and to each Bank on such date unless the
Borrowers or applicable Account Party shall have satisfied its reimbursement
obligation under Section 3.6(a) hereof by payment to the Agent on such date. The
Agent shall further use reasonable efforts to provide notice to the Borrowers or
applicable Account Party prior to honoring any such draft or other demand for
payment, but such notice, or the failure to provide such notice, shall not
affect the rights or obligations of the Agent with respect to any Letter of
Credit or the rights and obligations of the parties hereto, including without
limitation the obligations of the Borrowers or applicable Account Party under
Section 3.6(a) hereof.



                                     E-51
<PAGE>   52


                  (c)      Upon issuance by the Agent of each Letter of Credit
hereunder, each Revolving Credit Bank shall automatically acquire a pro rata
participation interest in such Letter of Credit and each related Letter of
Credit Payment based on its respective Revolving Credit Percentage. Each
Revolving Credit Bank, on the date a draft or demand under any Letter of Credit
is honored (or the next succeeding Business Day if the notice required to be
given by Agent to the Banks under Section 3.6(b) hereof is not given to the
Revolving Credit Banks prior to 2:00 p.m. (Detroit time) on such date of draft
or demand) or three (3) Business Days thereafter in respect of draws or demands
under Letters of Credit issued in any Alternative Currency, shall make its
Percentage of the amount paid by the Agent, and not reimbursed by the Borrowers
or applicable Account Party on such day, available in the applicable Permitted
Currency and in immediately available funds at the principal office of the Agent
for the account of the Agent. If and to the extent such Bank shall not have made
such pro rata portion available to the Agent, such Bank, the Borrowers and the
applicable Account Party severally agree to pay to the Agent forthwith on demand
such amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such
amount was paid by the Agent until such amount is so made available to the Agent
at a per annum rate equal to the interest rate applicable during such period to
the related Advance deemed to have been disbursed under Section 3.6(a) in
respect of the reimbursement obligation of the Borrowers and the applicable
Account Party, as set forth in Section 2.4(c)(i) or 2.4(c)(ii) hereof, as the
case may be. If such Bank shall pay such amount to the Agent together with such
interest, such amount so paid shall be deemed to constitute an Advance by such
Bank disbursed in respect of the reimbursement obligation of the Borrowers or
applicable Account Party under Section 3.6(a) hereof for purposes of this
Agreement, effective as of the dates applicable under said Section 3.6(a). The
failure of any Revolving Credit Bank to make its pro rata portion of any such
amount paid by the Agent available to the Agent shall not relieve any other
Revolving Credit Bank of its obligation to make available its pro rata portion
of such amount, but no Bank shall be responsible for failure of any other Bank
to make such pro rata portion available to the Agent. Furthermore, in the event
of the failure by applicable Borrowers to pay the Gap Interest required under
the proviso to Section 3.6(a) hereof, each of the Revolving Credit Banks shall
pay to Agent, within one Business Day following receipt from Agent of written
request therefor, its pro rata portion of said Gap Interest, excluding any
portion thereof attributable to the Applicable Margin.

                  (d)      Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to 
require or authorize any Bank to issue any Letter of Credit, it being recognized
that the Agent shall be the sole issuer of Letters of Credit under this 
Agreement.

         3.7      Obligations Irrevocable. The obligations of the Revolving 
Borrowers and any Account Party to make payments to Agent or the Revolving
Credit Banks with respect to Letter of Credit Obligations under Section 3.6
hereof, shall be unconditional and irrevocable and not subject to any
qualification or exception whatsoever, including, without limitation:
        
                  (a)      Any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter
of Credit or any documentation relating to any Letter of Credit or to any
transaction related in any way to any Letter of Credit (the "Letter of Credit
Documents");

                  (b)      Any amendment, modification, waiver, consent, or any
substitution, exchange or release of or failure to perfect any interest in
collateral or security, with respect to or under any of the Letter of Credit
Documents;

                  (c)      The existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other
right which the Borrowers or any Account Party may have at any time against any
beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any persons or
entities for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting),
the Agent or any Revolving Credit Bank or any other person or entity, whether in
connection with any of the Letter of Credit Documents, the transactions
contemplated herein or therein or any unrelated transactions;




                                     E-52
<PAGE>   53


                  (d)      Any draft or other statement or document presented
under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or
insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate
in any respect;
        
                  (e)      Payment by the Agent to the beneficiary under any 
Letter of Credit against presentation of documents which do not comply with the
terms of such Letter of Credit, including failure of any documents to bear any
reference or adequate reference to such Letter of Credit;
        
                  (f)      Any failure, omission, delay or lack on the part of
the Agent or any Revolving Credit Bank or any party to any of the Letter of
Credit Documents to enforce, assert or exercise any right, power or remedy
conferred upon the Agent, any Revolving Credit Bank or any such party under
this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any of the Letter of Credit
Documents, or any other acts or omissions on the part of the Agent, any
Revolving Credit Bank or any such party; or
        
                  (g)      Any other event or circumstance that would, in the 
absence of this Section 3.7, result in the release or discharge by operation of
law or otherwise of the Borrowers or any Account Party from the performance or
observance of any obligation, covenant or agreement contained in Section 3.6
hereof.
        
No setoff, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any obligation or any
defense of any kind or nature which the Borrowers or any Account Party has or
may have against the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit shall be available
hereunder to the Borrowers or any Account Party against the Agent or any Bank.
Nothing contained in this Section 3.7 shall be deemed to prevent the Borrowers
or the Account Parties, after satisfaction in full of the absolute and
unconditional obligations of the Borrowers and the Account Parties hereunder,
from asserting in a separate action any claim, defense, set off or other right
which they (or any of them) may have against Agent or any Bank.

         3.8      Risk Under Letters of Credit. (a) In the administration and
handling of Letters of Credit and any security therefor, or any documents or
instruments given in connection therewith, Agent shall have the sole right to
take or refrain from taking any and all actions under or upon the Letters of
Credit.

                  (b)      Subject to other terms and conditions of this 
Agreement, Agent shall issue the Letters of Credit and shall hold the documents
related thereto in its own name and shall make all collections thereunder and
otherwise administer the Letters of Credit in accordance with Agent's regularly
established practices and procedures and, except pursuant to Section 12.5
hereof, Agent will have no further obligation with respect thereto. In the
administration of Letters of Credit, Agent shall not be liable for any action
taken or omitted on the advice of counsel, accountants, appraisers or other
experts selected by Agent with due care and Agent may rely upon any notice,
communication, certificate or other statement from the Borrowers, any Account
Party, beneficiaries of Letters of Credit, or any other Person which Agent
believes to be authentic. Agent will, upon request, furnish the Revolving Credit
Banks with copies of Letter of Credit Documents related thereto.

<PAGE>   54
                  (c)      In connection with the issuance and administration of
Letters of Credit and the assignments hereunder, Agent makes no representation
and shall have no responsibility with respect to (i) the obligations of the
Borrowers or any Account Party or the validity, sufficiency or enforceability of
any document or instrument given in connection therewith, or the taking of any
action with respect to same, (ii) the financial condition of, any
representations made by, or any act or omission of, the Borrowers, the
applicable Account Party or any other Person, or (iii) any failure or delay in
exercising any rights or powers possessed by Agent in its capacity as issuer of
Letters of Credit in the absence of its gross negligence or willful misconduct.
Each of the Revolving Credit Banks expressly acknowledges that it has made and
will continue to make its own evaluations of the Borrowers' and the Account
Parties' creditworthiness without reliance on any representation of Agent or
Agent's officers, agents and employees.

                  (d)      If at any time Agent shall recover any part of any
unreimbursed amount for any draw or other demand for payment under a Letter of
Credit, or any interest thereon, Agent shall receive same for the pro rata
benefit of the Revolving Credit Banks in accordance with their respective
Percentages and shall promptly deliver to each Revolving Credit Bank its share
thereof, less such Bank's pro rata share of the costs of such recovery,
including court costs and attorney's fees. If at any time any Revolving Credit
Bank shall receive from any source whatsoever any payment on any such
unreimbursed amount or interest thereon in excess of such Bank's Percentage of
such payment, such Bank will promptly pay over such excess to Agent, for
redistribution in accordance with this Agreement.

         3.9      Indemnification. The Revolving Borrowers and each Account
Party hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold harmless the Revolving Credit
Banks, the Issuing Bank and the Agent, and their respective officers,
directors, employees and agents, from and against any and all claims, damages,
losses, liabilities, costs or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever which
the Revolving Credit Banks, the Issuing Bank or the Agent or any such Person
may incur or which may be claimed against any of them by reason of or in
connection with any Letter of Credit, and none of the Issuing Bank, any
Revolving Credit Bank or the Agent or any of their respective officers,
directors, employees or agents 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 in connection therewith;

                  (b)      the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents
or of any endorsement thereon, even if such documents should in fact prove to
be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged;

                  (c)      payment by the Issuing Bank to the beneficiary under
any Letter of Credit against presentation of documents which do not strictly
comply with the terms of any Letter of Credit (unless such payment resulted
from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Bank), including
failure of any documents to bear any reference or adequate reference to such
Letter of Credit;
        
                  (d)      any error, omission, interruption or delay in

transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit; or

                  (e)      any other event or circumstance whatsoever arising in
connection with any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that with respect to
subparagraphs (a)(i) through (a)(v) hereof, neither the Borrowers nor the
Account Parties shall be required to indemnify the Issuing Bank, the other
Revolving Credit Banks and the Agent and such other persons, and the Issuing
Bank shall be liable to the Borrowers and the Account Parties to the extent, but
only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or incidental,
damages suffered by any of the Borrowers and the Account Parties which were
caused by the Issuing Bank's gross negligence, willful misconduct or wrongful
dishonor of any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary
thereunder of a draft or other demand for payment and other documentation
strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit.

                  (f)      It is understood that in making any payment under a
Letter of Credit the Issuing Bank will rely on documents presented to it under
such Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set forth therein without
further investigation and regardless of any notice or information to the
contrary. It is further acknowledged and agreed that Borrowers or an Account
Party may have rights against the beneficiary or others in connection with any
Letter of Credit with respect to which the Revolving Credit Banks are alleged
to be liable and it shall be a condition of the assertion of any liability of
the Banks under this Section that the applicable Borrowers or applicable
Account Party shall contemporaneously pursue all remedies in respect of the
alleged loss against such beneficiary and any other parties obligated or liable
in connection with such Letter of Credit and any related transactions; provided
however that, to the extent that the Issuing Bank or the Banks are finally
adjudicated to have been grossly negligent or to have acted with willful
misconduct, then the Issuing Bank or the Revolving Credit Banks, as the case
may be, shall reimburse the Borrowers or such Account Party for the reasonable
costs and expenses of pursuing such remedies.
        
         3.10     Right of Reimbursement. Each Revolving Credit Bank agrees to
reimburse the Agent on demand, pro rata in accordance with its respective
Revolving Credit Percentage, for (i) the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and
expenses of the Agent to be reimbursed by the Revolving Borrowers or any Account
Party pursuant to any Letter of Credit Agreement or any Letter of Credit, to the
extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers or any Account Party and (ii) any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, fees, reasonable out-of-pocket expenses or disbursements of any kind and
nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Agent
(in its capacity as issuer of any Letter of Credit) in any way relating to or
arising out of this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any documentation or any
transaction relating thereto, or any Letter of Credit Agreement, to the extent
not reimbursed by the Borrowers or any Account Party, except to the extent that
such liabilities, losses, costs or expenses were incurred by Agent as a result
of Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct or by the Agent's wrongful
dishonor of any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary
thereunder of a draft or other demand for payment and other documentation
strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit.

         3.11     Existing Letter of Credit. The Existing Letter of Credit shall
be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement to be a Letter of Credit, and each
application submitted in connection with the Existing Letter of Credit shall be
deemed for all purposes of this Agreement to be a Letter of Credit Agreement. On
the Effective Date, the Agent shall be deemed automatically to have sold and
transferred, and each other Revolving Credit Bank shall be deemed automatically,
irrevocably, and unconditionally to have purchased and received from the Agent,
without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the
extent of such other Revolving Credit Bank's Percentage, in the Existing Letter
of Credit and the applicable Letter of Credit Obligations with respect thereto
and any security therefor or guaranty pertaining thereto.

4.       TERM LOANS

         4.1      Term Loans.

         (a)      Term Loan A. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each
Term Loan A Bank, severally and for itself alone, agrees to lend to Autocam
France, in a single disbursement of French Francs on the Effective Date, an
amount equal to such Bank's Percentage of Term Loan A.
        
         (b)      Term Loan B. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each
Term Loan B Bank, severally and for itself alone, agrees to make Advances of
Term Loan B to F&P from and after the Effective Date through the expiration of
the Term B Funding Period in an aggregate amount not to exceed such Bank's
Percentage of the Term Loan B Aggregate Commitment. Upon the expiration of the
Term Loan B Funding Period, the Banks' commitment to make additional Advances
of Term Loan B shall expire.
        
         4.2      Accrual of Interest and Maturity; Evidence of Indebtedness.
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, (i) Autocam France hereby
unconditionally promises to pay to the Agent in French Francs for the account of
each Term Loan A Bank such Bank's Percentage of the then unpaid aggregate
principal amount of Term Loan A outstanding on the Term Loan A Maturity Date and
(ii) F&P hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Agent in French Francs
for the account of each Term Loan B Bank such Bank's Percentage of the then
unpaid aggregate principal amount of Term Loan B outstanding on the Term Loan B
Maturity Date, and, in each case, on such other dates and in such other amounts
as may be required from time to time pursuant to this Agreement. Subject to
Sections 4.8 and 4.12 hereof, the unpaid principal Indebtedness from time to
time outstanding under the Term Loans shall, from the Effective Date (until
paid), bear interest at the Applicable Interest Rate.

         (b)      Each Term Loan Bank shall maintain in accordance with its 
usual practice an account or accounts evidencing indebtedness of the applicable
Borrowers to the appropriate lending office of such Bank resulting from each
Advance of Term Loan A and Term Loan B made by such lending office of such Bank
from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable
thereon and paid to such Bank from time to time under this Agreement.

         (c)      The Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 
14.8(f), and a subaccount therein for each Bank, in which Register and
subaccounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Advance
of Term Loan A and Term Loan B made hereunder, the type thereof and each
Interest Period applicable to any Eurocurrency-based Advance, (ii) the amount
of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from
the applicable Borrowers, to each Term Loan Bank hereunder in respect of the
Advances of Term Loan A and Term Loan B respectively and (iii) both the amount
of any sum received by the Agent hereunder from the applicable Borrowers in
respect of the Advances of Term Loan A and/or Term Loan B and each Bank's share
thereof.
        
         (d)      The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Term
Loan Bank maintained pursuant to paragraphs (b) and (c) of this Section 4.2
shall absent manifest error, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be
conclusive evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the
applicable Borrowers therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of
any Term Loan Bank or the Agent to maintain the Register or any such account,
as applicable, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the
obligation of the applicable Borrowers to repay the Advances of each of the
Term Loans (and all other amounts owing with respect thereto) made to the
applicable Borrowers by such Bank in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement.

         (e)      The Term Loan Borrowers agree that, upon written request to 
the Agent by any Term Loan Bank, the Term Loan Borrowers will execute and 
deliver to such Bank, at such Borrowers' own expense, a Term Loan A Note and a 
Term Loan B Note of the relevant Term Loan Borrower evidencing the outstanding
Advances under Term Loan A and Term Loan B, respectively, owing to such Bank;
provided, that the delivery of such Term Notes shall not be a condition
precedent to the Effective Date.
        
         4.3      Repayment of Principal. The Indebtedness outstanding under 
Term Loan A and under Term Loan B shall be repaid in French Francs in quarterly
principal installments in accordance with the schedules set forth below until
the Term Loan A Maturity Date and Term Loan B Maturity Date, respectively, when
all principal plus accrued interest thereon shall be due and payable. There
shall be no readvance or reborrowings of any principal reductions of any Term
Loan.

         (a)      Term Loan A. Autocam France shall repay Term Loan A in French
Francs in quarterly principal installments in accordance with the following
schedule until the Term Loan A Maturity Date, when all principal plus accrued
interest thereon shall be due and payable; provided, however in the event that
Term Loan A has been converted to Dollars pursuant to Section 4.11 hereof, and
the Prime-based Rate is in effect, said Indebtedness shall be paid in Dollars,
and provided further however that, during any period in which the Indebtedness
under the Term Loan A is carried in Dollars in accordance with Section 4.11
hereof, the Dollar Amount of each scheduled payment of principal and interest on
Term Loan A shall be adjusted to provide for full amortization of the
outstanding principal balance over the remaining term of such Term Loan:

         4.4      Term Loan Rate Requests; Refundings and Conversions of 
Advances of Term Loans. Unless Term Loan A or Term Loan B, as the case may be,
has been converted to Dollars pursuant to Section 4.11 hereof, and the
Prime-based Rate is then in effect, Autocam France may refund any Advance of
Term Loan A and F&P may refund any Advance of Term Loan B as a
Eurocurrency-based Advance with a like or different Interest Period, only after
delivery to the Agent of a Term Loan Rate Request executed by a person
previously authorized to execute such Requests by Autocam in a writing
delivered to the Agent, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth
below.
        
         (a)      each such Term Loan Rate Request shall set forth the 
information required on the Term Loan Rate Request form attached hereto as
Exhibit L with respect to such Term Loan, including without limitation:
        
                  (i)      whether the Advance is a refunding or conversion of 
                           an outstanding Advance;

                  (ii)     in the case of a refunding or conversion of an
                           outstanding Advance, the proposed date of such
                           refunding or conversion, which must be a Business
                           Day; and

                  (iii)    whether such Advance (or any portion thereof) is to
                           be a Prime-based Advance or a Eurocurrency-based
                           Advance, and, except in the case of a Prime-based
                           Advance, the Interest Period(s) applicable thereto;
                           provided, however that the parties acknowledge that
                           the Term Loans shall not be subject to conversion
                           into Dollars except as set forth in Section 4.11
                           hereof.

         (b)      each such Term Loan Rate Request shall be delivered to Agent 
by noon (Detroit time) three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed date of
Advance, except in the case of a Prime-based Advance, for which the Term Loan
Rate Request must be delivered by 2:00 p.m. one (1) Business Day prior to the
proposed date of Advance;



                                     E-58
<PAGE>   59
         (c)      the principal amount of such Advance of the particular Term 
Loan plus the amount of any other Advance of such Term Loan to be then combined
therewith having the same Applicable Interest Rate and Interest Period, if any,
shall be (i) in the case of a Prime-based Advance at least One Million Five
Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000), or the remaining principal balance
outstanding under such Term Loan, whichever is less, and (ii) in the case of a
Eurocurrency-based Advance at least Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
($2,500,000) or (in the case of any Term Loan carried in French Francs) the
equivalent thereof in French Francs or the remaining principal balance
outstanding under such Term Loan, whichever is less, or in each case a larger
integral multiple of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) or (in the case of
any Term Loan carried in French Francs the equivalent thereof in French Francs);

         (d)      no Advance shall have an Interest Period ending after the 
relevant Term Loan Maturity Date, and, notwithstanding any provision hereof to
the contrary, the applicable Borrower shall select Interest Periods (or the
Prime-based Rate) for sufficient portions of the Term Loan such that the
Borrower may make its required principal payments hereunder on a timely basis
and otherwise in accordance with Section 4.5 below;
        
         (e)      upon completion of the Advance there shall be no more than 
four (4) Interest Periods in effect for Advances of each Term Loan; and

         (f)      a Term Loan Rate Request, once delivered to Agent, shall not 
be revocable by the Borrowers.

Each selection of an Interest Period under this Section 4.4, and the amount and
date of any repayment, shall be noted on Agent's records, which records will be
conclusive evidence thereof, absent manifest error.

         4.5      Failure to Refund. Subject to Section 4.11 hereof, in the 
event the applicable Borrower shall fail with respect to any Eurocurrency-based
Advance of any Term Loan to timely exercise its option to refund such Advance
in accordance with Section 4.4 hereof (and such Advance has not been paid in
full on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto according to the
terms hereof), then the principal amount of such Advance which has not been
prepaid shall be automatically refunded as a Eurocurrency-based Advance with an
Interest Period of one month, or if shorter for the period to the next
principal installment due date, or, if applicable, to the applicable Term Loan
Maturity Date, and the Agent shall thereafter promptly notify Autocam thereof.
        
         4.6      Prime-based Interest Payments. Interest on the unpaid balance
of all Prime-based Advances of any Term Loan from time to time outstanding shall
accrue until paid at a per annum interest rate equal to the Prime-based Rate,
and shall be payable in immediately available funds quarterly commencing on the
first day of the fiscal quarter next succeeding the fiscal quarter during which
the initial Advance of such Term Loan is made and on the first day of each
fiscal quarter thereafter. Interest accruing at the Prime-based Rate shall be
computed on the basis of a 360 day year and assessed for the actual number of
days elapsed, and in such computation effect shall be given to any change in the
interest rate resulting from a change in the Prime-based Rate on the date of
such change in the Prime-based Rate.




                                     E-59
<PAGE>   60


         4.7      Eurocurrency-based Interest Payments. Interest on each
Eurocurrency-based Advance of any Term Loan having a related
Eurocurrency-Interest Period of 3 months or less shall accrue at its
Eurocurrency-based Rate and, if such Term Loan is carried in Dollars, shall be
payable in Dollars, and if such Term Loan is carried in French Francs, shall be
payable in French Francs, in each case in immediately available funds on the
last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto. Interest shall be payable in
Dollars or in French Francs, as the case may be, in immediately available funds
on each Eurocurrency-based Advance of such Term Loan outstanding from time to
time having a Eurocurrency-Interest Period of 6 months or longer, at intervals
of 3 months after the first day of the applicable Interest Period, and shall
also be payable on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto.
Interest accruing at the Eurocurrency-based Rate shall be computed on the basis
of a 360 day year and assessed for the actual number of days elapsed from the
first day of the Interest Period applicable thereto to, but not including, the
last day thereof.

         4.8      Interest Payments on Conversions. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in Sections 4.6 and 4.7 all accrued and unpaid interest on any
Advance refunded or converted pursuant to Section 4.4 hereof shall be due and
payable in full on the date such Advance is refunded or converted.
        
         4.9      Prime-based Rate Applicability and Interest Payments on Term 
Loan A or Term Loan B. In the event that, pursuant to Section 4.11 hereof, or
any other applicable provision of this Agreement, the Indebtedness outstanding
under Term Loan A or Term Loan B shall be converted to an Advance of Dollars as
a Prime-based Advance, thereafter interest on the unpaid balance of
Indebtedness outstanding under Term Loan A or Term Loan B, as the case may be,
shall accrue from the date of such Advance to the applicable Term Loan Maturity
Date (or until paid, or refunded or reconverted to an Advance carried in French
Francs in accordance with Section 4.12 hereof), at a per annum interest rate
equal to the Prime-based Rate, and shall be payable in immediately available
funds quarterly commencing on the due date for the next principal installment
required to be paid on the Term Loan pursuant to Section 4.3 hereof, and on the
due date of each succeeding principal payment thereon.
        
         4.10     Interest on Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
set forth in Sections 4.6 and 4.7, in the event and so long as any Event of
Default shall exist under this Agreement, interest shall be payable on demand
on the principal amount of all Advances of the Term Loans from time to time
outstanding (and, to the extent delinquent, on all other monetary obligations
of the Term Loan Borrowers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents) at a
per annum rate equal to the Applicable Interest Rate (calculated on the basis
of the maximum Margins) in respect of each such Advance, plus, in the case of
Eurocurrency-based Advances, two percent (2%) per annum for the remainder of
the then existing Interest Period, if any, and at all other such times and for
all Prime-based Advances, at a per annum rate equal to the Prime-based Rate,
plus two percent (2%).
        
         4.11     Unavailability of French Francs. If prior to the last day of
any Interest Period, Agent or the applicable Term Loan Banks (after consultation
with Agent) shall determine that by reason of circumstances affecting the
foreign exchange and interbank markets, generally, or for any of the reasons set
forth in Section 12 hereof, deposits of French Francs will not be available to
Agent and the applicable Term Loan Banks as of the last day of an applicable
Interest Period in the amounts necessary to carry the outstanding principal of
the Advances subject to such ending Interest Period in French Francs for any
Interest Period, Agent shall notify Autocam and the Advances shall then be
automatically converted to and carried in Dollars, in the Dollar Amount of the
Indebtedness then outstanding at the Prime-based Rate, until the first day of
the next Interest Period, if any, selected pursuant to Section 4.4 hereof.




                                     E-60
<PAGE>   61

         4.12     Reconversion to Advance carried in French Francs on
Re-availability. In the event that, after a conversion of Indebtedness to
Dollars pursuant to Section 4.11 hereof, Agent determines that Deposits of
French Francs are again available to Agent and/or the applicable Term Loan Banks
in the amounts necessary to carry the principal Indebtedness under Term Loan A
or Term Loan B, as the case may be, in French Francs for any Interest Period,
Agent shall notify Autocam of the Interest Period(s) for which such deposits in
French Francs are available and Autocam shall immediately select the next
Interest Period from among such available Interest Periods, in accordance with
Section 4.4 hereof.

         4.13     Repayment or Reconversion. In the event that the currency in 
which the Indebtedness is being carried is required to be changed from Dollars
to French Francs under Section 4.13, as aforesaid, and if the French Franc
Equivalent of the principal amount of the Indebtedness under the applicable Term
Loan outstanding upon such reconversion shall exceed the applicable French Franc
Principal Limit, then concurrently with such reconversion, Autocam France or
F&P, as the case may be, shall pay to Agent in immediately available funds, for
the ratable benefit of the applicable Term Loan Banks, an amount in French
Francs sufficient to reduce the then outstanding principal amount of the
applicable Term Loan to an amount not greater than the applicable French Franc
Principal Limit for such Term Loan.

         4.14     Optional Prepayment of Term Loans.

         (a)      Subject to this Section 4.14, at their option and upon one (1)
Business Day's notice to the Agent by wire, telecopy, telex or by telephone
(confirmed by wire, telecopy or telex), the applicable Borrowers may prepay any
portion of a Term Loan bearing interest at the Prime-based Rate or the
Eurocurrency-based Rate, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, with
accrued interest on the principal being prepaid to the date of such prepayment.
Any prepayment of a portion of a Term Loan as to which the Applicable Interest
Rate is the Prime-based Rate shall be without premium or penalty. Any other
prepayment shall be subject to the provisions of Section 12.1.

         (b)      Each partial prepayment of a Term Loan shall be applied to the
next principal installment that is due and the balance to the principal payments
of such Term Loan due thereunder in the inverse order of their maturities as
follows: first to that portion of such Term Loan outstanding as a Prime-based
Advance, second to that portion of such Term Loan outstanding as
Eurocurrency-based Advances which have Interest Periods ending on the date of
payment, and last to any remaining Advances of such Term Loan being carried at
the Eurocurrency-based Rate. All prepayments of the Term Loans shall be made to
the Agent for distribution ratably to the applicable Banks in accordance with
their respective Percentages.
        
         4.15     Mandatory Prepayment of Term Loans.

         (a)      Immediately upon receipt by a Borrower or any Subsidiary of 
any Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale, the Term Loan Borrowers shall prepay
the Term Loans by an amount equal to (i) in the case of Net Cash Proceeds from
the sale of assets pursuant to Section 9.5(f) hereof, one hundred percent (100%)
of such Net Cash Proceeds (other than the sale of any asset or assets, in a
single transaction or series of transactions, with a value less than $500,000
until the Term Loans have been paid in full); provided, however, that (x) in the
case of Asset Sales permitted under Section 9.5(f), such Borrower may use all or
any portion of the Net Cash Proceeds of such Asset Sale to purchase replacement
assets used or to be used by such Borrower or such Subsidiary, as the case may
be, in the business as permitted under Section 8.4(a) so long as (i) no Default
or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) each such purchase is
made within 180 days following the date of such Asset Sale and (iii) such
Borrower delivers to the Agent, concurrently with or prior to the date of such
Asset Sale, a certificate of an authorized officer of such Borrower stating that
such Net Cash Proceeds will be so used and (y) except to the extent used to

         (b)      immediately upon receipt by a Borrower or any Subsidiary of 
the cash proceeds of the issuance of any Equity Interests of a Borrower or such
Subsidiary or of any Subordinated Debt issued on or after the Effective Date,
the Term Loan Borrowers shall prepay the applicable Term Loans by an amount
equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such cash proceeds (net of reasonable and
customary costs and expenses of issuance);

         (c)      Mandatory prepayments under this Section 4.15 shall be in 
addition to any scheduled installments or optional prepayments made prior
thereto and shall be subject to Section 12.1. If any Net Cash Proceeds subject
to Section 4.15(a) or other proceeds subject to Section 4.15(b) are received by
any Borrower or Subsidiary other than a Term Loan Borrower, mandatory
prepayments under this Section 4.15 shall be applied to Term Loan A. If any
such proceeds are received by a Term Loan Borrower, all such proceeds shall be
applied to the Term Loan made to such Term Loan Borrower. Each mandatory
prepayment of the Term Loans shall be applied to the next principal installment
that is due and the balance to the principal payments of such Term Loan due
thereunder in the inverse order of their maturities as follows: first to that
portion of such Term Loan outstanding as a Prime-based Advance, second to that
portion of such Term Loan outstanding as Eurocurrency-based Advances which have
Interest Periods ending on the date of payment, and last to any remaining
Advances of such Term Loan being carried at the Eurocurrency-based Rate. All
prepayments of the Term Loans hereunder shall be made to the Agent for
distribution ratably to the applicable Banks.
        
         (d)      To the extent that, on the date any mandatory prepayment of 
the Term Loans under this Section 4.15 is due, the Indebtedness under the Term
Loans or any other Indebtedness to be prepaid is being carried, in whole or in
part, at the Eurocurrency-based Rate and no Default or Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, the Borrowers may deposit the amount of such
mandatory prepayment in a cash collateral account to be held by the Agent, for
and on behalf of the Banks (which shall be an interest-bearing account), on
such terms and conditions as are reasonably acceptable to Agent and the
Majority Term Loan Banks. Subject to the terms and conditions of said cash
collateral account, sums on deposit in said cash collateral account shall be
applied (until exhausted) to reduce the principal balance of the applicable
Term Loan on the last day of each Interest Period attributable to the
Eurocurrency-based Advances of such Term Loan.
        

5.       MARGIN ADJUSTMENTS

         5.1      Margin Adjustments. Adjustments to the Applicable Margins and
the Applicable Fee Percentages, based on Schedule 1.1 shall be implemented on a
quarterly basis as follows:

         only, effective as to all Advances outstanding hereunder and the
         Applicable Fee Percentage, upon the date of delivery of the financial

         Compliance Certificate under Section 8.2(a) hereunder, in each case
         establishing applicability of the appropriate adjustment, in each case
         with no retroactivity or claw-back. In the event Autocam fails timely
         to deliver the financial statements required under Section 8.1(a) or
         8.1(b) or the Covenant Compliance Certificate under Section 8.2(a),
         then from the date delivery of such financial statements and
         certificate was required until such financial statements and
         certificate are delivered, the margins and fee percentages shall be at
         the highest level on the Pricing Matrix attached to this Agreement as
         Schedule 1.1.
        
                  (b)      From the Effective Date until the required date of
         delivery under Section 8.1(b) of Autocam's financial statements for the
         fiscal quarter ending December 31, 1998, the margins and fee
         percentages shall be those set forth under the Level III column of the

to be granted, conveyed or otherwise established) by or under this Agreement or
the other Loan Documents, except for such filings to be made concurrently
herewith as are required by the Collateral Documents to perfect liens in favor
of the Agent. All such authorizations, consents, approvals, licenses,
qualifications, exemptions, filings, declarations and registrations which have
previously been obtained or made, as the case may be, are in full force and
effect and are not the subject of any attack, or to the knowledge of Borrowers
threatened attack (in any material respect) by appeal or direct proceeding or
otherwise.

         7.14     Agreements Affecting Financial Condition. None of the 
Borrowers, nor any Guarantor nor any other Subsidiary is party to any agreement
or instrument or subject to any charter or other corporate restriction which
has a Material Adverse Effect.
        
         7.15     No Investment Company or Margin Stock. None of the Borrowers,
nor any Guarantor nor any other Subsidiary is an "investment company" within
the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. None of the
Borrowers, nor any Guarantor nor any Subsidiary is engaged principally, or as
one of its important activities, directly or indirectly, in the business of
extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock. None
of the proceeds of any of the Advances will be used by any Borrower nor any
other Subsidiary to purchase or carry margin stock or will be made available by
any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in any manner to any other Person to
enable or assist such Person in purchasing or carrying margin stock. Terms for
which meanings are provided in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System or any regulations substituted therefor, as from time to
time in effect, are used in this paragraph with such meanings.

         7.16     ERISA. None of the Borrowers, nor any Guarantor nor any other
Subsidiary maintains or contributes to any Pension Plan subject to Title IV of
ERISA, except as set forth on Schedule 7.16 hereto; and there is no accumulated
funding deficiency within the meaning of ERISA, or any existing liability with
respect to any of the Pension Plans owed to the Pension Benefit Guaranty
Corporation or any successor thereto, and no "reportable event" or "prohibited
transaction", as defined in ERISA, has occurred with respect to any Pension
Plan, and all such Pension Plans are in material compliance with the
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code and ERISA.

         7.17     Conditions Affecting Business or Properties. Neither the
respective businesses nor the properties of any Borrower, nor any Guarantor nor
any other Subsidiary is affected by any fire, explosion, accident, strike,
lockout or other dispute, drought, storm, hail, earthquake, embargo, Act of God
or other casualty (not covered by insurance) which is reasonably likely to have
a Material Adverse Effect, or if such event or condition were to continue for
more than ten (10) additional days would reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

         7.18     Environmental and Safety Matters. Except as set forth in 
Schedules 7.18 and 7.12 and except for such matters as are not likely to have a
Material Adverse Effect:
        
                  (a)      all facilities and property owned or leased by the
         Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries, are owned or leased
         by the Borrowers and such Subsidiaries are in material compliance with
         all Hazardous Material Laws;

                  (b)      to the best knowledge of the Borrowers, there have 
         been no past, and there are no pending or threatened

                                    (i) claims, complaints, notices or requests
                  for information received by any Borrower or any of its
                  Subsidiaries with respect to any alleged violation of any
                  Hazardous Material Law, or

                                    (ii) complaints, notices or inquiries to any
                  Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries regarding potential
                  liability under any Hazardous Material Law; and

                  (c)      to the knowledge of the Borrowers, no conditions 
         exist at, on or under any property now or previously owned or leased
         by the Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries which, with
         the passage of time, or the giving of notice or both, would give rise
         to liability under any Hazardous Material Law.
        
         7.19     Subsidiaries. As of the Effective Date, and except as 
disclosed on Schedule 7.19 hereto, Autocam has no Subsidiaries.

         7.20     Accuracy of Information. (a) Each of Autocam's financial
statements, and F&P's financial statements previously furnished to Agent and the
Banks prior to the date of this Agreement, to the knowledge of Autocam in the
case of F&P financial statements, fairly presents in all material respects
(subject to year-end adjustments in the case of interim statements) the
financial condition of Autocam and F&P and the results of their operations for
the periods covered thereby, and (in the case of Autocam's financial statements)
has been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The projections and pro forma
financial information contained in the materials referenced in this clause (a)
are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by management of
Autocam to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by the Banks that
such financial information as it relates to future events is not to be viewed as
fact and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such
financial information may differ from the projected results set forth therein.

<PAGE>   70

                  (b)      Since June 30, 1998 through the Effective Date, there
has been no material adverse change in the financial condition of Autocam and
its Subsidiaries taken as a whole or F&P; to the best knowledge of Autocam,
neither Autocam nor any of its Subsidiaries nor F&P has any contingent
obligations (including any liability for taxes) not disclosed by or reserved
against in the June 30, 1998 balance sheets, as applicable, except as set forth
on Schedule 7.20 hereof, and at the present time there are no unrealized or
anticipated losses from any present commitment of Borrowers or any of their
Subsidiaries which contingent obligations and losses in the aggregate are
likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.
        
         7.21     Financial Statements - F&P. The Borrowers have heretofore
delivered to the Banks the Financial Statements (as defined in the F&P
Acquisition Agreement). To the knowledge of the Borrowers, the Financial
Statements were prepared in accordance with GAAP (as modified by the agreed upon
principles referred to in the F&P Acquisition Agreement) consistently applied
and fairly present in all material respects the financial position and results
of operations of F&P for the periods covered thereby.

         7.22     Labor Relations. None of the Borrowers nor any Subsidiary is
engaged in any unfair labor practice that could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect. There is (i) no unfair labor practice complaint pending
against the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or to the knowledge of Borrowers,
threatened against any of them, before the National Labor Relations Board, and
no grievance or arbitration proceeding arising out of or under any collective
bargaining agreement is so pending against either of them or, to the knowledge
of Borrowers, threatened against either of them, (ii) no strike, labor dispute,
slowdown or stoppage pending against the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or to the
knowledge of Borrowers, threatened against either of them and (iii) no union
representation question existing with respect to the employees of the Borrowers
or any Subsidiary, in each case or in the aggregate which could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

         7.23     Existing Funded Debt. Schedule 7.23 hereto sets forth a true
and complete list of all Funded Debt for borrowed money (other than
Indebtedness) of Autocam and its Subsidiaries as of the date hereof that is in
excess of $100,000 for any one issue and is to remain outstanding after giving
effect to this transaction, in each case showing the aggregate principal amount
thereof and the name of the respective borrower (or issuer) and any other
entity which directly or indirectly guaranteed such debt.
        
         7.24     Solvency. After giving effect to the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each Borrower and its Subsidiaries
will each be solvent, able to pay its indebtedness as it matures and will have
capital sufficient to carry on its business and all business in which it is
about to engage. This Agreement is being executed and delivered by the Borrowers
to Agent and the Banks in good faith and in exchange for fair, equivalent
consideration. None of the Borrowers nor any Subsidiary is insolvent, nor will
any Borrower or any Subsidiary be rendered insolvent by its execution and
delivery to Agent and the Banks of this Agreement or by the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and the capital and monies
remaining in the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries are not now and will not
become so unreasonably small as to preclude the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries
from carrying on their businesses. None of the Borrowers nor any Subsidiary
intends to nor does management of Borrowers or any Subsidiary believe it will
incur debts beyond its ability to pay as they mature. None of the Borrowers nor
any Subsidiary contemplates filing a petition in bankruptcy or for an
arrangement or reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code or any similar law of
any jurisdiction now or hereafter in effect relating to any Borrower or any
Subsidiary, nor does either Borrower or any Subsidiary have any knowledge of any
threatened bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings against Borrowers or any
Subsidiary.

         7.25     Capitalization. The authorized capital stock of each Borrower
and each Subsidiary is as set forth in Schedule 7.25. All issued and outstanding
shares of capital stock of Borrowers are duly authorized and validly issued,
fully paid, nonassessable, free and clear of all Liens and such shares were
issued in compliance with all applicable state and federal laws concerning the
issuance of securities. The capital stock of each of the Borrowers and each
Subsidiary is owned by the stockholders and in the amounts set forth on Schedule
7.25. No shares of the capital stock of any Borrower or any Subsidiary, other
than those described above, are issued and outstanding. Except as disclosed on
Schedule 7.25, there are no preemptive or other outstanding rights, options,
warrants, conversion rights or similar agreements or understandings for the
purchase or acquisition from a Borrower or any Subsidiary, of any shares of
capital stock or other securities of a Borrower or any Subsidiary.

         7.26     Limitation on Representations. The representations and 
warranties in this Section 7, to the extent they relate to a period ending on
or prior to the Effective Date, are limited by and subject to the fact that
Borrowers are basing the representations and warranties that relate to F&P,
prior to the Effective Date solely on the representations and warranties made
in the F&P Acquisition Documents. No Event of Default shall exist as a result
of such representations or warranties being untrue as they relate to a period
ending on or prior to the Effective Date unless Borrowers have actual knowledge
that those representations and warranties made in the applicable Acquisition
Documents which relate to the representations and warranties in this Section 7
are untrue in any material respect.
        
         7.27     Year 2000 Requirement. Each of the Borrowers has reviewed the
areas in their business and operations which could be adversely affected by, and
have developed or are developing a program to address on a timely basis the risk
that computer applications used by the Borrowers may be unable to recognize and
perform properly date-sensitive functions involving certain dates prior to and
any date after December 31, 1999. Any reprogramming required to permit the
proper functioning, in and following the year 2000, of (i) any such Borrower's
computer systems and (ii) equipment containing embedded microchips (including
systems and equipment supplied by others or with which such Borrower's systems
interface) and the testing of all such systems and equipment, as so
reprogrammed, will be substantially completed by July 31, 1999. The cost to the
Borrowers of such reprogramming and testing and of the reasonably foreseeable
consequences of year 2000 to the Borrowers (including, without limitation,
reprogramming errors and the failure of others' systems or equipment) will not
result in a Default or a Material Adverse Effect. Except for such of the
reprogramming referred to in the preceding sentence as may be necessary, the
computer and management information systems of the Borrowers are and, with
ordinary course upgrading and maintenance, will continue for the term of this
Agreement to be, sufficient to permit the Borrowers to conduct their business
without Material Adverse Effect.

8.       AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS

         Each Borrower covenants and agrees that it will, and, as applicable, it
will cause each of its Subsidiaries, until the later of the latest of the Term
Loan Maturity Date and the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and thereafter until
expiration of all Letters of Credit and final payment in full of the
Indebtedness and the performance by the Borrowers of all other obligations under
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, unless the Majority Banks shall
otherwise consent in writing, to:

                  (c)      comply with all Contractual Obligations and
         Requirements of Law, except to the extent that failure to comply
         therewith could not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have

         8.6      Inspection of Property; Books and Records, Discussions.

         between a Borrower or any Subsidiary and any Governmental Authority,
         which in either case, if not cured or if it is reasonably likely to be
         adversely determined, as the case may be, would have a Material
         Adverse Effect;
        


                                     E-73

         the financial impact thereof; and

         reasonable satisfaction of the Majority Banks any actions and
         proceedings relating to compliance with Hazardous Material Laws to

         is made (before and after giving effect thereto) no Default or Event of
         Default has occurred and is continuing; and
        
                  (g)      Permitted Acquisitions permitted pursuant to Section
         9.4.

In valuing any Investments for the purpose of applying the limitations set forth
in this Section 9.8 (except as otherwise expressly provided herein), such
Investment shall be taken at the original cost thereof, without allowance for
any subsequent write-offs or appreciation or depreciation, but less any amount
repaid or recovered on account of capital or principal.

including, without limitation, any purchase, sale, lease or exchange of property
or the rendering of any service, with any Affiliate of a Borrower or any
Subsidiary unless such transaction is otherwise permitted under this Agreement
or is in the ordinary course of a Borrower's or such Subsidiary's business and
is upon fair and reasonable terms no less favorable to the applicable Borrower
or such Subsidiary than it would obtain in a comparable arms length transaction
with a Person not a Subsidiary.

                  (f)      any representation or warranty made by Borrowers or 
         any Subsidiary herein or in any instrument submitted pursuant hereto
         or by any other party to the Loan Documents proves untrue or
         misleading in any material adverse respect when made;

         Documents, continuance thereof for a period of fifteen (15) days after
         written notice from Agent;

         Alternative Currency) individually or in the aggregate, which continues
         beyond any applicable period of cure and which would permit the holder

         in the aggregate against any Borrower or any Subsidiary, and such
         judgments shall remain unpaid, unvacated, unbonded or unstayed by
         appeal or otherwise for a period of thirty (30) consecutive days,
         except as covered by adequate insurance with a reputable carrier and
         an action is pending in which an active defense is being made with
         respect thereto;
        
                  (j)      the occurrence of a "reportable event", as defined in
         ERISA, which is determined to constitute grounds for termination by the

         District Court of a trustee to administer such Pension Plan and such

         administrator of such Pension Plan (without limiting any of Agent's or
         any Bank's other rights or remedies hereunder), or the institution of
         proceedings by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation to terminate
         any such Pension Plan or to appoint a trustee by the appropriate United

                  (k)      any Borrower shall be dissolved or liquidated (or any
         judgment, order or decree therefor shall be entered) or; if a
         creditors' committee shall have been appointed for the business of any

         which adequate reserves are made in such party's financial statements);
         or shall file an answer to a creditor's petition or other petition
         filed against it, admitting the material allegations thereof for an

         after written notice from Agent to the applicable Subordinated Debt
         Holder and Borrowers; or
        
                  (n)      any material provision of any Collateral Document 
         shall at any time for any reason cease to be valid, binding and

         contested by any Borrower or any Subsidiary shall deny that it has any
         or further liability or obligation under any Collateral Document, or
         any such Loan Document shall be terminated, invalidated, revoked or

         10.2     Exercise of Remedies. If an Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing hereunder: (a) the Agent may, and shall, upon being directed to
do so by the Majority Banks, declare the Commitments terminated; (b) the Agent
may, and shall, upon being directed to do so by the Majority Banks, declare the
entire unpaid principal Indebtedness, including the Notes, immediately due and
payable, without presentment, notice or demand, all of which are hereby
expressly waived by Borrowers; (c) upon the occurrence of any Event of Default
specified in subsection 10.1(k), above, and notwithstanding the lack of any
declaration by Agent under preceding clause (b), the entire unpaid principal
Indebtedness, including the Notes, shall become automatically and immediately
due and payable, and the Commitments shall be automatically and immediately
terminated; (d) the Agent shall, upon being directed to do so by the Majority
Banks, demand immediate delivery of cash collateral, and Borrowers and each
Account Party agrees to deliver such cash collateral upon demand, in an amount
equal to the maximum amount that may be available to be drawn at any time prior
to the stated expiry of all outstanding Letters of Credit, and (e) the Agent
may, and shall, if directed to do so by the Majority Banks or the Banks, as
applicable (subject to the terms hereof), exercise any remedy permitted by this
Agreement, the other Loan Documents or law; provided, however, that Agent shall
not be entitled to foreclose its security interest in the, or otherwise cause a
sale of the, stock pledged under the Pledge Agreement or exercise any voting
rights with respect to such stock until more than ninety (90) days have elapsed
since the acceleration or maturity of the Indebtedness.
        
         10.3     Rights Cumulative. No delay or failure of Agent and/or Banks
in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall affect such right,
power or privilege, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude
any further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other power, right or
privilege. The rights of Agent and Banks under this Agreement are cumulative and
not exclusive of any right or remedies which Banks would otherwise have.

         10.4     Waiver by Borrowers of Certain Laws. To the extent permitted
by applicable law, each Borrower hereby agrees to waive, and does hereby
absolutely and irrevocably waive and relinquish the benefit and advantage of
any valuation, stay, appraisement, extension or redemption laws now existing or
which may hereafter exist, which, but for this provision, might be applicable
to any sale made under the judgment, order or decree of any court, on any claim
for interest on the Notes, or any security interest or mortgage contemplated by
or granted under or in connection with this Agreement. These waivers have been
voluntarily given, with full knowledge of the consequences thereof.
        
         10.5     Waiver of Defaults. No Event of Default shall be waived by the
Banks except in a writing signed by an officer of the Agent in accordance with
Section 14.11 hereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or
privilege hereunder, nor any delay in the exercise thereof, shall preclude other
or further exercise of their rights by Agent or the Banks. No waiver of any
Event of Default shall extend to any other or further Event of Default. No
forbearance on the part of the Agent or the Banks in enforcing any of their
rights shall constitute a waiver of any of their rights. Borrowers expressly
agree that this Section may not be waived or modified by the Banks or Agent by
course of performance, estoppel or otherwise.

         10.6     Set Off.

         Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default,
each Bank may at any time and from time to time, without notice to the Borrowers
but subject to the provisions of Section 11.3 hereof, (any requirement for such
notice being expressly waived by the Borrowers) set off and apply against any
and all of the obligations of the Borrowers now or hereafter existing under this
Agreement, whether owing to such Bank or any other Bank or the Agent, any and
all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any
time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Bank to or for the
credit or the account of either Borrower and any property of either Borrower
from time to time in possession of such Bank, irrespective of whether or not
such deposits held or indebtedness owing by such Bank may be contingent and
unmatured and regardless of whether any Collateral then held by Agent or any
Bank is adequate to cover the Indebtedness. Promptly following any such setoff,
such Bank shall give written notice to Agent and to Borrowers of the occurrence
thereof. The Borrowers hereby grant to the Banks and the Agent a lien on and
security interest in all such deposits, indebtedness and property as collateral
security for the payment and performance of all of the obligations of the
Borrowers under this Agreement. The rights of each Bank under this Section 10.6
are in addition to the other rights and remedies (including, without limitation,
other rights of setoff) which such Bank may have.

11.      PAYMENTS, RECOVERIES AND COLLECTIONS

         11.1     Payment Procedure.

                  (a)      All payments by the Borrowers in respect of principal
         of, or interest on, any Advance in Dollars or in respect of any Letter
         of Credit Obligations or Fees which are payable in Dollars shall be
         made without setoff or counterclaim on the date specified for payment
         under this Agreement not later than 11:00 a.m. (Detroit time) in
         Dollars in immediately available funds to Agent, for the ratable
         account of the Banks, at Agent's office located at One Detroit Center,
         Detroit, Michigan 48226-3289. Payments made by the Borrowers in respect
         of principal of, or interest on, any Advance in any Alternative
         Currency or in respect of any Letter of Credit Obligations or Fees
         which are payable in any Alternative Currency shall be made in such
         Alternative Currency in immediately available funds for the account of
         Agent's Eurocurrency Lending Office, at the Agent's Correspondent, for
         the ratable account of the Banks, not later than 11:00 a.m. (the local
         time of Agent's Correspondent). Upon receipt of each such payment, the
         Agent shall make prompt payment to each Bank, or, in respect of
         Eurocurrency-based Advances, such Bank's Eurocurrency Lending Office,
         in like funds and currencies, of all amounts received by it for the
         account of such Bank.
        
                  (b)      Unless the Agent shall have been notified by 
         Borrowers prior to the date on which any payment to be made by
         Borrowers is due that Borrowers do not intend to remit such payment,
         the Agent may, in its sole discretion and without obligation to do so,
         assume that the Borrowers have remitted such payment when so due and
         the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to each
         Bank on such payment date an amount equal to such Bank's share of such
         assumed payment. If Borrowers have not in fact remitted such payment to
         the Agent each Bank shall forthwith on demand repay to the Agent the
         amount of such assumed payment made available or transferred to such
         Bank, together with the interest thereon, in respect of each day from
         and including the date such amount was made available by the Agent to
         such Bank to the date such amount is repaid to the Agent at a rate per
         annum equal to (i) for Prime-based Advances, the Federal Funds
         Effective Rate (daily average), as the same may vary from time to time,
         and (ii) with respect to Eurocurrency-based Advances, Agent's aggregate
         marginal cost (including the cost of maintaining any required reserves
         or deposit insurance and of any fees, penalties, overdraft charges or
         other costs or expenses incurred by Agent) of carrying such amount.

<PAGE>   87


                  (c)      Subject to the definition of Interest Period, 
         whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall otherwise be due on a
         day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the
         next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be
         included in computing interest, if any, in connection with such
         payment.
        
                  (d)      All payments to be made by Borrowers under this
         Agreement or any of the Notes (including without limitation payments
         under the Swing Line) shall be made without set-off or counterclaim,
         as aforesaid, and, subject to compliance by the Banks with Section
         14.13, without deduction for or on account of any present or future
         withholding or other taxes of any nature imposed by any governmental
         authority or of any political subdivision thereof or any federation or
         organization of which such governmental authority may at the time of
         payment be a member, unless Borrowers are compelled by law to make
         payment subject to such tax. In such event, Borrowers shall:
        
                           (i)      pay to the Agent for Agent's own account
                                    and/or, as the case may be, for the account
                                    of the Banks (and, in the case of Advances
                                    of the Swing Line, pay to the Swing Line
                                    Bank which funded such Advances) such
                                    additional amounts as may be necessary to
                                    ensure that the Agent and/or such Bank or
                                    Banks receive a net amount equal to the full
                                    amount which would have been receivable had
                                    payment not been made subject to such tax;
                                    and

                           (ii)     remit such tax to the relevant taxing
                                    authorities according to applicable law, and
                                    send to the Agent or the applicable Bank
                                    (including the Swing Line Bank) or Banks, as
                                    the case may be, such certificates or
                                    certified copy receipts as the Agent or such
                                    Bank or Banks shall reasonably require as
                                    proof of the payment by the Borrowers, of
                                    any such taxes payable by the Borrowers.

As used herein, the terms "tax", "taxes" and "taxation" include all taxes,
levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions and withholdings and any
restrictions or conditions resulting in a charge together with interest (and any
taxes payable upon the amounts paid or payable pursuant to this Section 11.1)
thereon and fines and penalties with respect thereto which may be imposed by
reason of any violation or default with respect to the law regarding such tax,
assessed as a result of or in connection with the transactions in any
Alternative Currency hereunder, or the payment and/or receipt of funds in any
Alternative Currency hereunder, or the payment or delivery of funds into or out
of any jurisdiction other than the United States (whether assessed against any
of the Borrower, Agent or any of the Banks). Borrowers shall be reimbursed by
the applicable Bank for any payment made by Borrowers under this Section 11.1 if
the applicable Bank is not in compliance with its obligations under Section
14.13.

         11.2     Application of Proceeds of Collateral. Notwithstanding 
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, after an Event of Default, the
proceeds of any Collateral, together with any offsets, voluntary payments by
Borrowers or any Subsidiary of the Borrowers or others and any other sums
received or collected in respect of the Indebtedness, shall be applied, first,
to the Advances of the Revolving Credit and the Term Loans and any
Reimbursement Obligations on a pro rata basis (or in such order and manner as
determined by the Majority Banks; subject, however, to the applicable
Percentages of the loans held by each of the Banks), next, to any other
Indebtedness on a pro rata basis, and then, if there is any excess, to
Borrowers and the Subsidiaries, as the case may be. The application of such
proceeds and other sums to the Advances of the Revolving Credit and Term Loans
and the Reimbursement Obligations shall be based on each Bank's Percentage of
the aggregate of the loans.

         11.3     Pro-rata Recovery. If any Bank shall obtain any payment or 
other recovery (whether voluntary, involuntary, by application of offset or
otherwise) on account of principal of, or interest on, any of the Indebtedness
in excess of its pro rata share of payments then or thereafter obtained by all
Banks upon principal of and interest on all Indebtedness, such Bank shall
purchase from the other Banks such participations in the Revolving Credit, the
Term Loans and/or Reimbursement Obligation held by them as shall be necessary
to cause such purchasing Bank to share the excess payment or other recovery
ratably in accordance with the Weighted Percentage with each of them; provided,
however, that if all or any portion of the excess payment or other recovery is
thereafter recovered from such purchasing holder, the purchase shall be
rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but
without interest.
        
12.      CHANGES IN LAW OR CIRCUMSTANCES; INCREASED COSTS

         12.1     Reimbursement of Prepayment Costs. If any Borrower makes any
payment of principal with respect to any Eurocurrency-based Advance or Quoted
Rate Advance on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period
applicable thereto (whether voluntarily, by acceleration, or otherwise), or if
any Borrower converts or refunds (or attempts to convert or refund) any such
Advance on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable
thereto; or if any Borrower fails to borrow, refund or convert into any
Eurocurrency-based Advance or Quoted Rate Advance after notice has been given by
such Borrower to Agent in accordance with the terms hereof requesting such
Advance, or if any Borrower fails to make any payment of principal or interest
in respect of a Eurocurrency-based Advance or Quoted Rate Advance when due, the
applicable Borrower shall reimburse Agent for itself and/or on behalf of any
Bank, as the case may be, on demand for any resulting loss, cost or expense
incurred (excluding the loss of any Applicable Margin) by Agent and Banks, as
the case may be as a result thereof, including, without limitation, any such
loss, cost or expense incurred in obtaining, liquidating, employing or
redeploying deposits from third parties, whether or not Agent and Banks, as the
case may be, shall have funded or committed to fund such Advance. Such amount
payable by such Borrower to Agent for itself and/or on behalf of any Bank, as
the case may be, may include, without limitation, an amount equal to the excess,
if any, of (a) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the amount so
prepaid, or not so borrowed, refunded or converted, for the period from the date
of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, refund or convert, through the
last day of the relevant Interest Period, at the applicable rate of interest for
said Advance(s) provided under this Agreement, over (b) the amount of interest
(as reasonably determined by Agent and Banks, as the case may be) which would
have accrued to Agent and Banks, as the case may be, on such amount by placing
such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the
interbank eurocurrency market. Calculation of any amounts payable to any Bank
under this paragraph shall be made as though such Bank shall have actually
funded or committed to fund the relevant Advance through the purchase of an
underlying deposit in an amount equal to the amount of such Advance and having a
maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period; provided, however, that any
Bank may fund any Eurocurrency-based Advance or Quoted Rate Advance, as the case
may be, in any manner it deems fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be
utilized only for the purpose of the calculation of amounts payable under this
paragraph. Upon the written request of Borrowers, Agent and Banks shall deliver
to Borrowers a certificate setting forth the basis for determining such losses,
costs and expenses, which certificate shall be conclusively presumed correct,
absent manifest error.

         12.2     Eurocurrency Lending Office. For any Advance to which the
Eurocurrency-based Rate is applicable, if Agent or a Bank, as applicable, shall
designate a Eurocurrency Lending Office which maintains books separate from
those of the rest of Agent or such Bank, Agent or such Bank, as the case may be,
shall have the option of maintaining and carrying the relevant Advance on the
books of such Eurocurrency Lending Office.

         12.3     Availability of Alternative Currency. The Agent and the Banks
shall not be required to make any Advance in an Alternative Currency if, at any
time prior to making such Advance, the Agent or the Majority Banks (after
consultation with Agent) shall determine, in its or their sole discretion, that
(i) deposits in the applicable Alternative Currency in the amounts and
maturities required to fund such Advance will not be available to the Agent and
the Banks; (ii) a fundamental change has occurred in the foreign exchange or
interbank markets with respect to the applicable Alternative Currency
(including, without limitation, changes in national or international financial,
political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange
controls); or (iii) it has become otherwise materially impractical for the Agent
or the Banks, as applicable, to make such Advance in the applicable Alternative
Currency. The Agent or the applicable Bank, as the case may be, shall promptly
notify the Borrowers and the Banks of any such determination.

         12.4     Refunding Advances in Same Currency. If pursuant to any 
provisions of this Agreement, any of the Borrowers repays one or more Advances
and on the same day borrows an amount in the same currency, the Agent (or the
Swing Line Bank, in the case of a Swing Line Advance) shall apply the proceeds
of such new borrowing to repay the principal of the Advance or Advances being
repaid and only an amount equal to the difference (if any) between the amount
being borrowed and the amount being repaid shall be remitted by the Agent to
such Borrower, or by such Borrower to the Agent, as the case may be.
        
         12.5     Circumstances Affecting Eurocurrency-based Rate Availability.
If with respect to any Interest Period, Agent or the Majority Banks (after
consultation with Agent) shall determine that, by reason of circumstances
affecting the foreign exchange and interbank markets generally, deposits in
eurodollars or in any applicable Alternative Currency, as the case may be, in
the applicable amounts are not being offered to the Agent or such Banks for such
Interest Period, then Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the
Borrowers. Thereafter, until Agent notifies the Borrowers that such
circumstances no longer exist, (i) the obligation of Banks to make
Eurocurrency-based Advances (other than in any applicable Alternative Currency
with respect to which deposits are available, as required hereunder), and the
right of the Borrowers to convert an Advance to or refund an Advance as a
Eurocurrency-based Advance, as the case may be (other than in any applicable
Alternative Currency with respect to which deposits are available, as required
hereunder), shall be suspended, and (ii) the Borrowers shall repay in full (or
cause to be repaid in full) the then outstanding principal amount of each such
Eurocurrency-based Advance covered hereby in the applicable Permitted Currency,
together with accrued interest thereon, any amounts payable under Sections 12.1
hereof, and all other amounts payable hereunder on the last day of the then
current Interest Period applicable to such Advance. Upon the date for repayment
as aforesaid and unless Autocam notifies Agent to the contrary within two (2)
Business Days after receiving a notice from Agent pursuant to this Section, such
outstanding principal amount shall be converted to a Prime-based Advance as of
the last day of such Interest Period.

<PAGE>   90


         12.6     Laws Affecting Eurocurrency-based Advance Availability. If, 
after the date of this Agreement, the introduction of, or any change in, any
applicable law, rule or regulation or in the interpretation or administration
thereof by any governmental authority charged with the interpretation or
administration thereof, or compliance by any of the Banks (or any of their
respective Eurocurrency Lending Offices) with any request or directive (whether
or not having the force of law) of any such authority, shall make it unlawful or
impossible for any of the Banks (or any of their respective Eurocurrency Lending
Offices) to honor its obligations hereunder to make or maintain any Advance with
interest at the Eurocurrency-based Rate, or in an Alternative Currency, such
Bank shall forthwith give notice thereof to Autocam and to Agent. Thereafter,
(a) the obligations of Banks to make Eurocurrency-based Advances or Advances in
any such Alternative Currency and the right of any Borrower to convert an
Advance into or refund an Advance as a Eurocurrency-based Advance or as an
Advance in any such Alternative Currency shall be suspended and thereafter the
Borrowers may select as Applicable Interest Rates or as Alternative Currencies
only those which remain available and which are permitted to be selected
hereunder, and (b) if any of the Banks may not lawfully continue to maintain an
Advance to the end of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto as a
Eurocurrency-based Advance or in such Alternative Currency, the applicable
Advance shall immediately be converted to a Prime-based Advance (in the Dollar
Amount thereof) and the Prime-based Rate shall be applicable thereto for the
remainder of such Interest Period. For purposes of this Section, a change in
law, rule, regulation, interpretation or administration shall include, without
limitation, any change made or which becomes effective on the basis of a law,
rule, regulation, interpretation or administration presently in force, the
effective date of which change is delayed by the terms of such law, rule,
regulation, interpretation or administration.

         12.7     Increased Cost of Eurocurrency-based Advances. If the adoption
after the date of this Agreement of, or any change after the date of this
Agreement in, any applicable law, rule or regulation of or in the interpretation
or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or
comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or
compliance by Agent or any of the Banks (or any of their respective Eurocurrency
Lending Offices) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force
of law) made by any such authority, central bank or comparable agency after the
date hereof:

                  (a)      shall subject any of the Banks (or any of their 
         respective Eurocurrency Lending Offices) to any tax, duty or other
         charge with respect to any Advance or shall change the basis of
         taxation of payments to any of the Banks (or any of their respective
         Eurocurrency Lending Offices) of the principal of or interest on any
         Advance or any other amounts due under this Agreement in respect
         thereof (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net
         income of any of the Banks or any of their respective Eurocurrency
         Lending Offices imposed by the jurisdiction in which such Bank's
         principal executive office or Eurocurrency Lending Office is located);
         or
        


                                     E-90
<PAGE>   91


                  (b)      shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve
         (including, without limitation, any imposed by the Board of Governors
         of the Federal Reserve System), special deposit or similar requirement
         against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit
         extended by, any of the Banks (or any of their respective Eurocurrency
         Lending Offices) or shall impose on any of the Banks (or any of their
         respective Eurocurrency Lending Offices) or the foreign exchange and
         interbank markets any other condition affecting any Advance; and the
         result of any of the foregoing is to increase the costs to any of the
         Banks of maintaining any part of the Indebtedness hereunder as a
         Eurocurrency-based Advance or as an Advance in any Alternative Currency
         or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by any of the
         Banks under this Agreement in respect of a Eurocurrency-based Advance
         or any Advance in an Alternative Currency, whether with respect to
         Advances to any of the Borrowers, then such Bank shall promptly notify
         Agent, and Agent (or such Bank, as aforesaid) shall promptly notify the
         Borrowers of such fact and demand compensation therefor and, within
         fifteen (15) days after such notice, the applicable Borrower agrees to
         pay to such Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate
         such Bank or Banks for such increased cost or reduction. Agent will
         promptly notify the Borrowers of any event of which it has knowledge
         which will entitle Banks to compensation pursuant to this Section, or
         which will cause the Borrowers to incur additional liability under
         Section 12.1 hereof, provided that Agent shall incur no liability
         whatsoever to the Banks, the Borrowers in the event it fails to do so.
         A certificate of Agent (or such Bank, if applicable) setting forth the
         basis for determining such additional amount or amounts necessary to
         compensate such Bank or Banks shall be conclusively presumed to be
         correct save for manifest error. For purposes of this Section, a change
         in law, rule, regulation, interpretation, administration, request or
         directive shall include, without limitation, any change made or which
         becomes effective on the basis of a law, rule, regulation,
         interpretation, administration, request or directive presently in
         force, the effective date of which change is delayed by the terms of
         such law, rule, regulation, interpretation, administration, request or
         directive.

         12.8     Judgment Currency. The obligation of the Borrowers to make
payments of the principal of and interest on the outstanding Advances and any
other amounts payable hereunder in the currency specified for such payment
herein shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender, or any recovery
pursuant to any judgment, which is expressed in or converted into any other
currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery shall result in the
actual receipt by each of the Banks of the full amount of the particular
Permitted Currency expressed to be payable herein. The Agent (or the Swing Line
Bank, as applicable) shall, using all amounts obtained or received from the
Borrowers pursuant to any such tender or recovery in payment of principal of and
interest on the outstanding Advances, promptly purchase the applicable Permitted
Currency at the most favorable spot exchange rate determined by the Agent to be
available to it. The obligation of the Borrowers to make payments in the
applicable Permitted Currency shall be enforceable as an alternative or
additional cause of action solely for the purpose of recovering in the
applicable Permitted Currency the amount, if any, by which such actual receipt
shall fall short of the full amount of the Permitted Currency expressed to be
payable herein.

         12.9     Capital Adequacy and Other Increased Costs. In the event that
after the Effective Date the adoption of or any change in any applicable law,
treaty, rule or regulation (whether domestic or foreign) now or hereafter in
effect and whether or not presently applicable to any Bank or Agent, or any
interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority charged
with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Bank or
Agent with any guideline, request or directive of any such authority (whether or
not having the force of law), including any risk based capital guidelines,
affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be
maintained by such Bank or Agent (or any corporation controlling such Bank or
Agent) and such Bank or Agent, as the case may be, determines that the amount of
such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of such Bank's or
Agent's obligations or Advances hereunder and such increase has the effect of
reducing the rate of return on such Bank's or Agent's (or such controlling
corporation's) capital as a consequence of such obligations or Advances
hereunder to a level below that which such Bank or Agent (or such controlling
corporation) could have achieved but for such circumstances (taking into
consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed
by such Bank or Agent to be material (collectively, "Increased Costs"), then
Agent or such Bank shall notify the Borrowers, and thereafter the applicable
Borrower shall pay to such Bank or Agent, as the case may be, from time to time,
upon request by such Bank or Agent, additional amounts sufficient to compensate
such Bank or Agent (or such controlling corporation) for any increase in the
amount of capital and reduced rate of return which such Bank or Agent reasonably
determines to be allocable to the existence of such Bank's or Agent's
obligations or Advances hereunder; notwithstanding the forgoing, however, the
Borrowers shall not be required to pay any increased costs under Sections 12.5,
12.7 or 3.4(c) for any period ending prior to the date that is 90 days prior to
the making of a Bank's initial request for such additional amounts unless the
applicable change in law or other event resulting in such increased costs is
effective retroactively to a date more than 90 days prior to the date of such
request, in which case a Bank's request for such additional amounts relating to
the period more than 90 days prior to the making of the request must be given
not more than 90 days after such Bank becomes aware of the applicable change in
law or other event resulting in such increased costs. A statement as to the
amount of such compensation, prepared in good faith and in reasonable detail by
such Bank or Agent, as the case may be, shall be submitted by such Bank or by
Agent to the Borrowers, reasonably promptly after becoming aware of any event
described in this Section 12.9 and shall be conclusive, absent manifest error in
computation.

         12.10    Substitution of Banks. If (a) the obligation of any Bank to 
make Eurocurrency-based Advances has been suspended pursuant to Section 12.5 or
12.6 or (b) any Bank has demanded compensation under Section 3.4(c), 12.1 or
12.7, or (c) any Revolving Credit Bank does not consent to the extension of the
Revolving Credit Maturity Date as provided in Section 2.16(b)(i) or (ii) (in
each case, an "Affected Bank"), then the Borrowers shall have the right
(subject to Section 14.8 hereof), with the assistance of the Agent, to seek a
substitute Bank or Banks (which may be one or more of the Banks (the
"Purchasing Bank" or "Purchasing Banks") to purchase the Advances of the
Revolving Credit and/or the applicable Term Loan, as the case may be and assume
the commitments (including without limitation its participations in Swing Line
Advances and Letters of Credit) under this Agreement of such Affected Bank. The
Affected Bank shall be obligated to sell its Advances of the Revolving Credit
and/or the applicable Term Loan, as the case may be, and assign its commitments
to such Purchasing Bank or Purchasing Banks within fifteen days after receiving
notice from Borrowers requiring it to do so, at an aggregate price equal to the
outstanding principal amount thereof, plus unpaid interest accrued thereon up
to but excluding the date of the sale. In connection with any such sale, and as
a condition thereof, Borrowers shall pay to the Affected Bank all fees accrued
for its account hereunder to but excluding the date of such sale, plus, if
demanded by the Affected Bank within ten Business Days after such sale, (i) the
amount of any compensation which would be due to the Affected Bank under
Section 12.1 if the applicable Borrower has prepaid the outstanding
Eurocurrency-based Advances of the Affected Bank on the date of such sale and
(ii) any additional compensation accrued for its account under Sections 3.4(c),
12.7 and 12.9 to but excluding said date. Upon such sale, the Purchasing Bank
or Purchasing Banks shall assume the Affected Bank's commitment, and the
Affected Bank shall be released from its obligations hereunder to a
corresponding extent. If any Purchasing Bank is not already one of the Banks,
the Affected Bank, as assignor, such Purchasing Bank, as assignee, Autocam and
the Agent, shall enter into an Assignment Agreement pursuant to Section 14.8
hereof, whereupon such Purchasing Bank shall be a Bank party to this Agreement,
shall be deemed to be an assignee hereunder and shall have all the rights and
obligations of a Bank with a Revolving Credit Percentage equal to its ratable
share of the then applicable Revolving Credit Aggregate Commitment and the
applicable Percentages of the Term Loans of the Affected Bank. In connection
with any assignment pursuant to this Section 12.10, the Borrowers or the
Purchasing Bank shall pay to the Agent the administrative fee for processing
such assignment referred to in Section 14.8.
        
13.      AGENT

         13.1     Appointment of Agent. Each Bank and the holder of each Note
irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Agent to act on behalf of such Bank or
holder under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such
powers hereunder and thereunder as are specifically delegated to Agent by the
terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as may be reasonably
incidental thereto, including without limitation the power to execute or
authorize the execution of financing or similar statements or notices, and other
documents. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, the
Agent shall act solely as agent of the Banks and does not assume and shall not
be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or
trust with or for Borrowers. Each Bank agrees (which agreement shall survive any
termination of this Agreement) to reimburse Agent for all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses (including house and outside attorneys' fees and
disbursements) incurred by Agent hereunder or in connection herewith or with an
Event of Default or in enforcing the obligations of Borrowers under this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other instrument executed pursuant
hereto, and for which Agent is not reimbursed by Borrowers, pro rata according
to such Bank's Weighted Percentage, but excluding any such expense resulting
from Agent's gross negligence or wilful misconduct. Agent shall not be required
to take any action under the Loan Documents, or to prosecute or defend any suit
in respect of the Loan Documents, unless indemnified to its satisfaction by the
Banks against loss, costs, liability and expense (excluding liability resulting
from its gross negligence or wilful misconduct). If any indemnity furnished to
Agent shall become impaired, it may call for additional indemnity and cease to
do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is given.




                                     E-93
<PAGE>   94


         13.2     Deposit Account with Agent. Borrowers hereby authorize Agent,
in Agent's sole discretion, upon notice to Borrower to charge its general
deposit account(s), if any, maintained with Agent for the amount of any
principal, interest, or other amounts or costs due under this Agreement when
the same become due and payable under the terms of this Agreement or the Notes.
        
         13.3     Scope of Agent's Duties. The Agent shall have no duties or
responsibilities except those expressly set forth herein, and shall not, by
reason of this Agreement or otherwise, have a fiduciary relationship with any
Bank (and no implied covenants or other obligations shall be read into this
Agreement against the Agent). None of Agent, its Affiliates nor any of their
respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable to any Bank
for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under this Agreement
or any document executed pursuant hereto, or in connection herewith or therewith
with the consent or at the request of the Majority Banks (or all of the Banks
for those acts requiring consent of all of the Banks) (except for its or their
own wilful misconduct or gross negligence), nor be responsible for or have any
duties to ascertain, inquire into or verify (a) any recitals or warranties made
by the Borrowers, or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Borrowers, or any
officer thereof contained herein or therein, (b) the effectiveness,
enforceability, validity or due execution of this Agreement or any document
executed pursuant hereto or any security thereunder, (c) the performance by
Borrowers of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder, or (d) the
satisfaction of any condition hereunder or thereunder, including without
limitation the making of any Advance or the issuance of any Letter of Credit.
Agent and its Affiliates shall be entitled to rely upon any certificate, notice,
document or other communication (including any cable, telegraph, telex,
facsimile transmission or oral communication) believed by it to be genuine and
correct and to have been sent or given by or on behalf of a proper person. Agent
may treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof. Agent may employ agents
and may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for a Borrower),
independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be
liable to the Banks (except as to money or property received by them or their
authorized agents), for the negligence or misconduct of any such agent selected
by it with reasonable care or for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it
in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or
experts.

         13.4     Successor Agent. Agent may resign as such at any time upon at
least 30 days prior notice to Borrowers and all Banks. If Agent at any time
shall resign or if the office of Agent shall become vacant for any other reason,
Majority Banks shall, by written instrument, appoint successor agent(s)
satisfactory to such Majority Banks, and, so long as no Default or Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, to Borrowers. Such successor agent shall
thereupon become the Agent hereunder, as applicable, and shall be entitled to
receive from the prior Agent such documents of transfer and assignment as such
successor Agent may reasonably request. Any such successor Agent shall be a
commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States or any state
thereof and shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000.
If a successor is not so appointed or does not accept such appointment before
the resigning Agent's resignation becomes effective, the resigning Agent may
appoint a temporary successor to act until such appointment by the Majority
Banks is made and accepted or if no such temporary successor is appointed as
provided above by the resigning Agent, the Majority Banks shall thereafter
perform all of the duties of the resigning Agent hereunder until such
appointment by the Majority Banks is made and accepted. Such successor Agent
shall succeed to all of the rights and obligations of the resigning Agent as if
originally named. The resigning Agent shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to
such successor Agent all moneys at the time held by the resigning Agent
hereunder after deducting therefrom its expenses for which it is entitled to be
reimbursed. Upon such succession of any such successor Agent, the resigning
agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder, except for
its gross negligence or wilful misconduct arising prior to its resignation
hereunder, and the provisions of this Article 13 shall continue in effect for
the benefit of the resigning Agent in respect of any actions taken or omitted to
be taken by it while it was acting as Agent.

         13.5     Agent in its Individual Capacity. Comerica Bank, its 
Affiliates and their respective successors and assigns, shall have the same
rights and powers hereunder as any other Bank and may exercise or refrain from
exercising the same as though Comerica Bank were not the Agent. Comerica Bank
and its Affiliates may (without having to account therefor to any Bank) accept
deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking,
trust, financial advisory or other business with Borrowers (or their
Subsidiaries) as if Comerica Bank were not acting as Agent hereunder, and may
accept fees and other consideration therefor without having to account for the
same to the Banks.
        
         13.6     Credit Decisions. Each Bank acknowledges that it has,
independently of Agent and each other Bank and based on the financial statements
of Borrowers and such other documents, information and investigations as it has
deemed appropriate, made its own credit decision to extend credit hereunder from
time to time. Each Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently of Agent
and each other Bank and based on such other documents, information and
investigations as it shall deem appropriate at any time, continue to make its
own credit decisions as to exercising or not exercising from time to time any
rights and privileges available to it under this Agreement or any document
executed pursuant hereto.

         13.7     Authority of Agent to Enforce Notes and This Agreement. Each
Bank, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, authorizes the
Agent with full power and authority as attorney-in-fact to institute and
maintain actions, suits or proceedings for the collection and enforcement of
the Notes and to file such proofs of debt or other documents as may be
necessary to have the claims of the Banks allowed in any proceeding relative to
Borrowers, or any of its Subsidiaries, or their respective creditors or
affecting their respective properties, and to take such other actions which
Agent considers to be necessary or desirable for the protection, collection and
enforcement of the Notes, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.
        
         13.8     Indemnification. The Banks agree to indemnify the Agent and 
its Affiliates (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrowers, but without limiting
any obligation of Borrowers to make such reimbursement), ratably according to
their respective Weighted Percentages, from and against any and all claims,
damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses of any kind or nature
whatsoever (including, without limitation, fees and disbursements of counsel)
which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Agent and its
Affiliates in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any of the
other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or any action
taken or omitted by the Agent and its Affiliates under this Agreement or any of
the Loan Documents; provided, however, that no Bank shall be liable for any
portion of such claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses
resulting from the Agent's or its Affiliates's gross negligence or willful
misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Bank agrees to reimburse
the Agent and its Affiliates promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any
out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of
counsel) incurred by the Agent and its Affiliates in connection with the
preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or
enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of,
or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement
or any of the other Loan Documents, to the extent that the Agent and its
Affiliates is not reimbursed for such expenses by Borrowers, but without
limiting the obligation of Borrowers to make such reimbursement. Each Bank
agrees to reimburse the Agent and its Affiliates promptly upon demand for its
ratable share of any amounts owing to the Agent and its Affiliates by the Banks
pursuant to this Section, provided that, if the Agent or its Affiliates is
subsequently reimbursed by the Borrowers for such amounts, it shall refund to
the Banks on a pro rata basis the amount of any excess reimbursement. If the
indemnity furnished to the Agent and its Affiliates under this Section shall,
in the judgment of the Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, the Agent may
call for additional indemnity from the Banks and cease, or not commence, to
take any action until such additional indemnity is furnished.

       13.9       Knowledge of Default. It is expressly understood and agreed 
that the Agent shall be entitled to assume that no Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, unless the officers of the Agent immediately
responsible for matters concerning this Agreement shall have been notified in a
writing specifying such Event of Default and stating that such notice is a
"notice of default" by a Bank or by Borrowers. Upon receiving such a notice,
the Agent shall promptly notify each Bank of such Event of Default and provide
each Bank with a copy of such notice and, shall endeavor to provide such notice
to the Banks within three (3) Business Days (but without any liability
whatsoever in the event of its failure to do so). Agent shall also furnish the
Banks, promptly upon receipt, with copies of all other notices or other

expressly provided herein, whenever the Agent is authorized and empowered
hereunder on behalf of the Banks to give any approval or consent, or to make any
request, or to take any other action on behalf of the Banks (including without
limitation the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under the other Loan
Documents), the Agent shall be required to give such approval or consent, or to
make such request or to take such other action only when so requested in writing
by the Majority Banks or the Banks, as applicable hereunder. Action that may be
taken by Majority Banks or all of the Banks, as the case may be (as provided for
hereunder) may be taken (i) pursuant to a vote at a meeting (which may be held
by telephone conference call) as to which all of the Banks have been given
reasonable advance notice, or (ii) pursuant to the written consent of the
requisite Percentages of the Banks as required hereunder, provided that all of
the Banks are given reasonable advance notice of the requests for such consent.

       13.11      Enforcement Actions by the Agent. Except as otherwise 
expressly provided under this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents
and subject to the terms hereof, Agent will take such action, assert such
rights and pursue such remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents as the Majority Banks or all of the Banks, as the case may be (as
provided for hereunder), shall direct; provided, however, that the Agent shall
not be required to act or omit to act if, in the judgment of the Agent, such
action or omission may expose the Agent to personal liability or is contrary to
this Agreement, any of the Loan Documents or applicable law. Except as
expressly provided above or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents, no Bank (other than the Agent, acting in its capacity as agent)
shall be entitled to take any enforcement action of any kind under any of the
Loan Documents.

benefit of Borrowers and the Banks and their respective successors and assigns.

         (b)      The foregoing shall not authorize any assignment by Borrowers,

                  (i)      each assignment shall be in a minimum amount of the
                           lesser of (x) Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) or
                           such lesser amount as the and (y) the entire
                           remaining amount of assigning Bank's aggregate
                           interest in the Revolving Credit (and participations

                           received from the assignee (or from the assigning
                           Bank) an assignment fee of $3,500 for each such
                           assignment.




                                     E-99
<PAGE>   100


In connection with any assignment, Borrowers and Agent shall be entitled to
continue to deal solely and directly with the assigning Bank in connection with
the interest so assigned until (x) the Agent shall have received a notice of
assignment duly executed by the assigning Bank and an Assignment Agreement (with
respect thereto) duly executed by the assigning Bank and each assignee; and (y)
the assigning Bank shall have delivered to the Agent the original of each Note
held by the assigning Bank under this Agreement. From and after the date on
which the Agent shall notify Borrowers and the assigning Bank that the foregoing
conditions shall have been satisfied and all consents (if any) required shall
have been given, the assignee thereunder shall be deemed to be a party to this
Agreement. To the extent that rights and obligations hereunder shall have been
assigned to such assignee as provided in such notice of assignment (and
Assignment Agreement), such assignee shall have the rights and obligations of a
Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including without
limitation the right to receive fees payable hereunder in respect of the period
following such assignment). In addition, the assigning Bank, to the extent that
rights and obligations hereunder shall have been assigned by it as provided in
such notice of assignment (and Assignment Agreement), but not otherwise, shall
relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents.

Within five (5) Business Days following Borrowers' receipt of notice from the
Agent that Agent has accepted and executed a notice of assignment and the duly
executed Assignment Agreement and assuming the Borrowers have consented to such
assignment (if their consent is required), Borrowers shall, to the extent
applicable, execute and deliver to the Agent in exchange for any surrendered
Note, new Note(s) payable to the order of the assignee in an amount equal to the
amount assigned to it pursuant to such notice of assignment (and Assignment
Agreement), and with respect to the portion of the Indebtedness retained by the
assigning Bank, to the extent applicable, new Note(s) payable to the order of
the assigning Bank in an amount equal to the amount retained by such Bank
hereunder. Agent, the Banks and the Borrowers acknowledge and agree that any
such new Note(s) shall be given in renewal and replacement of the surrendered
Notes and shall not effect or constitute a novation or discharge of the
Indebtedness evidenced by any surrendered Note, and each such new Note may
contain a provision confirming such agreement. In addition, promptly following
receipt of such Notes, Agent shall prepare and distribute to Borrowers and the
assigning Bank and the assignee Bank a revised Schedule 1.2 to this Agreement
setting forth the applicable new Percentages of the Banks (including the
assignee Bank), taking into account such assignment.

         (e)      Each Bank agrees that any participation agreement permitted
hereunder shall comply with all applicable laws and shall be subject to the
following restrictions (which shall be set forth in the applicable Participation
Agreement):

                  (i)      such Bank shall remain the holder of its Notes
                           hereunder, notwithstanding any such participation;

                  (ii)     except as expressly set forth in this Section 14.8(e)
                           with respect to rights of setoff and the benefits of
                           Section 12 hereof, a participant shall have no direct
                           rights or remedies hereunder;

                  (iii)    a participant shall not reassign or transfer, or
                           grant any sub-participations in its participation
                           interest hereunder or any part thereof; and







                                     E-100
<PAGE>   101
                  (iv)     such Bank shall retain the sole right and
                           responsibility to enforce the obligations of the
                           Borrowers relating to the Notes and the other Loan
                           Documents, including, without limitation, the right
                           to proceed against any Guaranties, or cause Agent to
                           do so (subject to the terms and conditions hereof),
                           and the right to approve any amendment, modification
                           or waiver of any provision of this Agreement without
                           the consent of the participant, except for those
                           matters covered by Section 14.11(a) through (e) and
                           (h) hereof (provided that a participant may exercise
                           approval rights over such matters only on an indirect
                           basis, acting through such Bank, and Borrowers, Agent
                           and the other Banks may continue to deal directly
                           with such Bank in connection with such Bank's rights
                           and duties hereunder).

Borrowers agree that each participant shall be deemed to have the right of
setoff under Section 10.6 hereof in respect of its participation interest in
amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the same
extent as if the Indebtedness were owing directly to it as a Bank under this
Agreement, shall be subject to the pro rata recovery provisions of Section 11.3
hereof and shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 12 hereof. The amount,
terms and conditions of any participation shall be as set forth in the
participation agreement between the issuing Bank and the Person purchasing such
participation, and none of the Borrowers, the Agent and the other Banks shall
have any responsibility or obligation with respect thereto, or to any Person to
whom any such participation may be issued. No such participation shall relieve
any issuing Bank of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents, and all actions hereunder shall be conducted as if no such
participation had been granted.

       (f)        The Agent shall maintain at its principal office a copy of 
each Assignment Agreement delivered to it and a register (the "Register") for
the recordation of the names and addresses of the Banks, the Percentages of
such Banks and the principal amount of each type of Advance owing to each such
Bank from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive
evidence, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Agent, and the Banks
may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of
the Advances recorded therein for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register
shall be available for inspection by the any of the Borrowers or any Bank upon
reasonable notice to the Agent and a copy of such information shall be provided
to any such party on their prior written request. The Agent shall give prompt
written notice to Autocam of the making of any entry in the Register or any
change in such entry.
        
         (g)      Nothing in this Agreement, the Notes or the other Loan 
Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall confer on any Person
other than the respective parties hereto and thereto and their successors and
assignees and participants permitted hereunder and thereunder any benefit or
any legal or equitable right, remedy or other claim under this Agreement, the
Notes or the other Loan Documents.
        
       14.9       Indulgence. No delay or failure of Agent and the Banks in
exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall affect such right,
power or privilege nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude
any further exercise thereof, nor the exercise of any other right, power or
privilege. The rights of Agent and the Banks hereunder are cumulative and are
not exclusive of any rights or remedies which Agent and the Banks would
otherwise have.
        
       14.10      Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several
counterparts, and each executed copy shall constitute an original instrument,
but such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

       14.11      Amendment and Waiver. No amendment or waiver of any provision 
of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor consent to any departure by
Borrowers or any Subsidiary therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless
the same shall be in writing and signed by the Majority Banks (or by the Agent
at the written request of the Majority Banks) or, if this Agreement expressly so
requires with respect to the subject matter thereof, by all Banks (and, with
respect to any amendments to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, by
Borrowers or the Subsidiaries which are signatories thereto), and then such
waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the
specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no amendment, waiver
or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all the Banks, do any of the
following: (a) increase any Bank's commitments hereunder, (b) reduce the
principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any Fees or other amounts payable
hereunder, (c) postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or
interest on, the Notes or any Fees or other amounts payable hereunder, (d) waive
any Event of Default specified in Sections 10.1(a) or (b) hereof, (e) except as
expressly permitted hereunder, or under the Collateral Documents, release or
defer the granting or perfecting of a lien or security interest in any
Collateral or release any guaranty or similar undertaking provided by any Person
except as shall be otherwise expressly permitted in this Agreement or any other
Loan Document, provided however that Agent shall be entitled to release any
Collateral which any Borrower or any Subsidiary is permitted to sell or transfer
under the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents without notice to
or any further action or consent of the Bank, (f) terminate or modify any
indemnity provided to the Banks hereunder or under the other Loan Documents,
except as shall be otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or any other
Loan Document, (g) take any action which requires the approval or consent of all
Banks pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or (h)
change the definitions of "Alternative Currency", "Revolving Credit Percentage",
"Term Loan A Percentage", "Term Loan B Percentage", "Weighted Percentage",
"Interest Period","Majority Banks", "Majority Revolving Credit Banks", "Majority
Term Loan Banks" or this Section 14.11; provided, further, that notwithstanding
the foregoing, (v) the definition of "Permitted Borrower" may be amended and the
Revolving Credit Maturity Date may be extended with the consent of all of the
Revolving Credit Banks and (w) any date fixed for payment of principal of or
interest on any Term Loan may be postponed or extended with the consent of all
the applicable Term Loan Banks; and provided further, that no amendment, waiver
or consent shall, unless in writing signed by the Swing Line Bank, do any of the
following: (x) reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Swing Line Note or
(y) postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the
Swing Line Note; and provided further, however, that no amendment, waiver, or
consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Agent in addition to all the
Banks, affect the rights or duties of the Agent under this Agreement or any
other Loan Document. All references in this Agreement to "Banks" or "the Banks"
shall refer to all Banks, unless expressly stated to refer to Majority Banks.

       14.12      Confidentiality. Each Bank agrees that it will not disclose
without the prior consent of Borrowers (other than to its employees, its 
Subsidiaries, another Bank, an Affiliate of a Bank or to its auditors or 
counsel) any information with respect to Borrowers, which is furnished pursuant
to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; provided that any Bank
may disclose any such information (a) as has become generally available to the
public or has been lawfully obtained by such Bank from any third party under no
duty of confidentiality to Borrowers, (b) as may be required or appropriate in
any report, statement or testimony submitted to, or in respect to any inquiry,
by, any municipal, state or federal regulatory body having or claiming to have
jurisdiction over such Bank, including the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System of the United States, the Office of the Comptroller of the
Currency or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or similar organizations
(whether in the United States or elsewhere) or their successors, (c) as may be
required or appropriate in respect to any summons or subpoena or in connection
with any litigation, (d) in order to comply with any law, order, regulation or
ruling applicable to such Bank, and (e) to any permitted transferee or assignee
or to any approved participant of, or with respect to, the Notes, as aforesaid.

       14.13      Withholding Taxes. If any Bank is not incorporated under the
laws of the United States or a state thereof, such Bank shall promptly (but in
any event prior to the initial payment of interest hereunder) deliver to the
Agent two executed copies of (i) Internal Revenue Service Form 1001 specifying
the applicable tax treaty between the United States and the jurisdiction of
such Bank's domicile which provides for the exemption from withholding on
interest payments to such Bank, (ii) Internal Revenue Service Form 4224
evidencing that the income to be received by such Bank hereunder is effectively
connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States or (iii)
other evidence satisfactory to the Agent that such Bank is exempt from United
States income tax withholding with respect to such income; provided, however,
that such Bank shall not be required to deliver to Agent the aforesaid forms or
other evidence with respect to (i) Advances to any Foreign Subsidiary which is
or becomes a Permitted Borrower hereunder or (ii) with respect to Advances to
Autocam or any Domestic Subsidiary which subsequently becomes a Permitted
Borrower hereunder, if such Bank has assigned its interest in the Revolving
Credit (including any outstanding Advances thereunder and participations in
Letters of Credit issued hereunder) and any Notes issued to it by Autocam, to
an Affiliate which is incorporated under the laws of the United States or a
state thereof, and so notifies the Agent. Such Bank shall amend or supplement
any such form or evidence as required to insure that it is accurate, complete
and non-misleading at all times. Promptly upon notice from the Agent of any
determination by the Internal Revenue Service that any payments previously made
to such Bank hereunder were subject to United States income tax withholding
when made, such Bank shall pay to the Agent the excess of the aggregate amount
required to be withheld from such payments over the aggregate amount actually
withheld by the Agent. In addition, from time to time upon the reasonable
request and at the sole expense of the Borrowers, each Bank and the Agent shall
(to the extent it is able to do so based upon applicable facts and
circumstances), complete and provide the Borrowers with such forms,
certificates or other documents as may be reasonably necessary to allow the
Borrowers, as applicable, to make any payment under this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents without any withholding for or on the account of any tax under
Section 11.1(d) hereof (or with such withholding at a reduced rate), provided
that the execution and delivery of such forms, certificates or other documents
does not adversely affect or otherwise restrict the right and benefits
(including without limitation economic benefits) available to such of the Bank
or the Agent, as the case may be, under this Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents, or under or in connection with any transactions not related to the
transactions contemplated hereby.
        
       14.14      Taxes and Fees. Should any tax (other than as a result of a 
Bank's failure to comply with Section 14.13 or a tax based upon the net income
or capitalization of any Bank or the Agent by any jurisdiction where a Bank or
Agent is located), recording or filing fee become payable in respect of this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any amendment, modification or
supplement hereof or thereof, the Borrowers agree to pay the same, together with
any interest or penalties thereon arising from the Borrowers' act or omission,
and agrees to hold the Agent and the Banks harmless with respect thereto.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 14.14 shall
affect or reduce the rights of any Bank or the Agent under Section 12.7 hereof.

       14.15      WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE BANKS, THE AGENT AND THE BORROWERS 
AFTER CONSULTING OR HAVING HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT WITH COUNSEL,
KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT ANY OF THEM MAY HAVE
TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS
AGREEMENT OR ANY RELATED INSTRUMENT OR AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS
CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, DEALING, STATEMENTS
(WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTION OF ANY OF THEM. NEITHER THE BANKS, THE
AGENT, NOR BORROWERS SHALL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE, BY COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHERWISE,
ANY SUCH ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL HAS BEEN WAIVED WITH ANY OTHER ACTION IN
WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED. THESE PROVISIONS SHALL NOT
BE DEEMED TO HAVE BEEN MODIFIED IN ANY RESPECT OR RELINQUISHED BY THE BANKS AND
THE AGENT OR BORROWERS EXCEPT BY A WRITTEN INSTRUMENT EXECUTED BY ALL OF THEM.
        
       14.16      Complete Agreement; Conflicts. This Agreement, the Notes (if
issued), any Requests for Revolving Credit Advance, Term Loan Rate Requests and
Requests for Swing Line Advance hereunder, and the Loan Documents contain the
entire agreement of the parties hereto, superseding all prior agreements,
discussions and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof, and none
of the parties shall be bound by anything not expressed in writing. In the event
of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, this Agreement shall govern.

       14.17      Severability. In case any one or more of the obligations of
Borrowers under this Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents
shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining obligations of Borrowers shall not
in any way be affected or impaired thereby, and such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability in one jurisdiction shall not affect the validity, legality or
enforceability of the obligations of Borrowers under this Agreement, the Notes
or any of the other Loan Documents in any other jurisdiction.

       14.18      Table of Contents and Headings. The table of contents and the
headings of the various subdivisions hereof are for convenience of reference
only and shall in no way modify or affect any of the terms or provisions hereof.

       14.19      Construction of Certain Provisions. If any provision of this
Agreement or any of the Loan Documents refers to any action to be taken by any
Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be
applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person,
whether or not expressly specified in such provision.

       14.20      Independence of Covenants. Each covenant hereunder shall be 
given independent effect (subject to any exceptions stated in such covenant) so
that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any such covenant
(taking into account any such stated exception), the fact that it would be
permitted by an exception to, or would be otherwise within the limitations of,
another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of
Default.

       14.21      Reliance on and Survival of Various Provisions. All terms,
covenants, agreements, representations and warranties of Borrowers or any party
to any of the Loan Documents made herein or in any of the Loan Documents or in
any certificate, report, financial statement or other document furnished by or
on behalf of Borrowers or any Subsidiary in connection with this Agreement or
any of the Loan Documents shall be deemed to have been relied upon by the Banks,
notwithstanding any investigation heretofore or hereafter made by any Bank or on
such Bank's behalf, and those covenants and agreements of Borrowers set forth in
Section 12.6 hereof (together with any other indemnities of Borrowers or any
Subsidiary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan
Documents) and of Banks set forth in Section 13.8 hereof shall survive the
repayment in full of the Indebtedness and the termination of the Revolving
Credit Aggregate Commitment.

       14.22      Autocam to Act For Other Borrowers.

         Autocam France and each Permitted Borrower authorizes Autocam with full
power and authority as attorney-in-fact, to execute and deliver Requests for
Advances, request for issuance of Letters of Credit and each other instrument,
certificate and report to be delivered by such Borrowers to Agent and the Banks
pursuant to this Agreement. Autocam France and each Permitted Borrower agrees
that it shall be bound by any action taken by Autocam on its behalf pursuant to
such appointment.

       14.23      Unification of Certain Currencies. If the Euro (or some other
similar unit of account) becomes a currency in its own right in connection with
European monetary union contemplated by the Maastrict Treaty, then each of the
Borrowers, the Banks and the Agent agrees to negotiate in good faith an
amendment to this Agreement satisfactory in form and substance to the Borrowers,
the Banks and the Agent to account therefor. For the avoidance of doubt, the
parties hereto affirm and agree that neither the fixing of a conversion rate of
any such Alternative Currency against the Euro, nor the mandatory conversion of
such obligations into Euro, in each case pursuant to the Maastricht Treaty,
shall require the early termination of this Agreement or the prepayment of any
amount due under the Loan Documents or create any liability of one party to
another party for any direct or consequential loss otherwise arising from any of
such events to the extent required by the Maastrict Treaty.

       14.24      Complete Agreement; Amendment and Restatement. This Agreement,
the Notes (if issued), any Requests for Advance or Letters of Credit hereunder,
the other Loan Documents and any agreements, certificates, or other documents
given to secure the Indebtedness, contain the entire agreement of the parties
hereto, and none of the parties hereto shall be bound by anything not expressed
in writing. This Agreement constitutes an amendment and restatement of the
Prior Credit Agreement, which Prior Credit Agreement is fully superseded and
amended and restated in its entirety hereby; provided, however, that the
Indebtedness governed by the Prior Credit Agreement shall remain outstanding
and in full force and effect and provided further that this Agreement does not
constitute a novation of such Indebtedness.
