      2.1   REVOLVING LOANS.

            (a) Revolving Loan Commitment.

                  (i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each
            Lender severally agrees to make revolving loans (each a "Revolving
            Loan" and collectively the "Revolving Loans") to the Borrower, in
            Dollars, at any time and from time to time, during the period from

            outstanding Swingline Loans plus such Lender's Pro Rata Share of
            outstanding LC Obligations shall not exceed such Lender's
            Commitment. Subject to the terms of this Credit Agreement (including

            Loans.

                  (ii) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein,
            each Lender severally agrees to participate in Facility LCs issued
            pursuant to Section 4 for the

                                       22
<PAGE>

            account of the Borrower; provided that in no event may the aggregate
            amount of all outstanding LC Obligations exceed the lesser of (A)
            the Aggregate LC Commitment or (B) an amount equal to the Revolving
            Committed Amount minus the sum of all outstanding Loans.

            (b) Method of Borrowing for Revolving Loans. By no later than 11:00
      a.m. (i) on the date of the requested borrowing of Revolving Loans that
      will be Floating Rate Loans or (ii) three Business Days prior to the date
      of the requested borrowing of Revolving Loans that will be Eurodollar
      Loans, the Borrower shall telephone the Administrative Agent with the
      information described below as well as submit a written Notice of
      Borrowing (which may be submitted via telecopy) to the Administrative
      Agent setting forth (A) the amount requested, (B) whether such Revolving
      Loans shall accrue interest at the Floating Rate or the Eurodollar Rate,
      (C) with respect to Revolving Loans that will be Eurodollar Loans, the
      Interest Period applicable thereto and (D) certification that the Borrower
      has complied in all respects with Section 5.2 and, to the extent that the
      Revolving Loan requested is the initial Extension of Credit, Section 5.1.
      Revolving Loans made on the Effective Date may be Floating Rate Loans or,
      subject to compliance by the Borrower with the terms of this Section
      2.1(b) and delivery by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent of a
      funding indemnity letter in form and substance satisfactory to the
      Administrative Agent, Eurodollar Loans or a combination thereof.

            (c) Funding of Revolving Loans. Upon receipt of a Notice of
      Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall promptly inform the Lenders as
      to the terms thereof. Each Lender shall make its Pro Rata Share of the
      requested Revolving Loans available to the Administrative Agent by 2:00
      p.m. on the date specified in the Notice of Borrowing by deposit, in
      Dollars, of immediately available funds at its address specified in or
      pursuant to Section 11.1.

            No Lender shall be responsible for the failure or delay by any other
      Lender in its obligation to make Revolving Loans hereunder; provided,
      however, that the failure of any Lender to fulfill its obligations
      hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder.
      Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender
      prior to the date of any Eurodollar Loan or 30 minutes prior to the time
      of any Floating Rate Loan that such Lender does not intend to make
      available to the Administrative Agent its portion of the Revolving Loans
      to be made on such date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such
      Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on the
      date of such Revolving Loans, and the Administrative Agent in reliance
      upon such assumption, may (in its sole discretion but without any
      obligation to do so) make available to the Borrower a corresponding
      amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the
      Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall be able to recover
      such corresponding amount from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay
      such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent's demand
      therefor, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, and
      the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the
      Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to
      recover from the Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, interest on
      such corresponding

                                       23
<PAGE>

      amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was
      made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower to the date
      such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent at a
      per annum rate equal to (i) from the Borrower at the applicable rate for
      such Revolving Loan pursuant to the Notice of Borrowing and (ii) from a
      Lender at the Federal Funds Effective Rate.

            (d) Reductions of Revolving Committed Amount.

                  (i) Upon at least three Business Days' notice, the Borrower
            shall have the right to permanently reduce, without premium or
            penalty, all or part of the aggregate unused amount of the Revolving
            Committed Amount at any time or from time to time; provided that (A)
            each partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount at least
            equal to $5,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 above
            such amount and (B) no reduction shall be made which would reduce
            the Revolving Committed Amount to an amount less than the
            Outstanding Credit Extensions.

                  (ii) Any reduction in (or termination of) the Revolving
            Committed Amount may not be reinstated without the consent of all
            the Lenders; provided, however, the Borrower shall still be entitled
            to increase the Revolving Committed Amount in accordance with the
            terms of Section 2.1(e). The Administrative Agent shall immediately
            notify the Lenders of any reduction in the Revolving Committed
            Amount.

            (e) Increase of Revolving Committed Amount.

                  (i) Request for Increase. The Borrower may, at any time and
            from time to time, request, by notice to the Administrative Agent,
            the Administrative Agent's approval of an increase of the Revolving
            Committed Amount ("Facility Increase"), within the limitations
            hereafter described, which request shall set forth the amount of
            each such requested Facility Increase. The Administrative Agent's
            approval of such request shall not be unreasonably withheld. Within
            twenty (20) days of such request, the Administrative Agent shall
            advise the Borrower of its approval or disapproval of such request;
            failure to so advise the Borrower shall constitute approval. If the
            Administrative Agent approves any such Facility Increase, then the
            Revolving Committed Amount may be so increased (up to the amount of
            such approved Facility Increase, in the aggregate) by having one or
            more New Lenders increase the amount of their then existing
            Revolving Loan Commitments or become Lenders with a new Revolving
            Loan Commitment hereunder, subject to and in accordance with the
            provisions of this Section 2.1(e). Any Facility Increase shall be
            subject to the following limitations and conditions: (A) any
            increase (in the aggregate) in the Revolving Committed Amount and
            the amount (in the aggregate) of any new Revolving Loan Commitment
            of any New Lender or the amount (in the aggregate) of any increase
            in the Revolving Loan Commitment of any New Lender, shall (unless
            otherwise agreed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) not
            be less than $5,000,000 (and shall be in

                                       24
<PAGE>

            integral multiples of $1,000,000 if in excess thereof); (B) no
            Facility Increase shall increase the Revolving Committed Amount to
            an amount in excess of the Aggregate Commitment Limit; (C) the
            Borrower and each New Lender shall have executed and delivered a
            commitment and acceptance (the "Commitment and Acceptance")
            substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.1(e) hereto, and the
            Administrative Agent shall have accepted and executed the same; (D)
            the Borrower shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative
            Agent such Revolving Notes as the Administrative Agent shall require
            to effect such Facility Increase; (E) the Borrower shall have
            delivered to the Administrative Agent opinions of counsel
            (substantially similar to the forms of opinions delivered pursuant
            to Section 5.1(c), modified to apply to the Facility Increase and
            each Revolving Note and Commitment and Acceptance executed and
            delivered in connection therewith); (F) the Guarantors shall in
            writing have consented to the Facility Increase and have agreed that
            their Guaranties continue in full force and effect and also apply to
            the Facility Increase; and (G) the Borrower and each New Lender
            shall otherwise have executed and delivered such other instruments
            and documents as the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably
            requested in connection with such Facility Increase. The form and
            substance of the documents required under clauses (A) through (G)
            above shall be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent.
            The Administrative Agent shall provide written notice to all of the
            Lenders hereunder of any Facility Increase.

                  (ii) Loans by New Lenders. Upon the effective date of any
            increase in the Revolving Committed Amount pursuant to the
            provisions hereof, which effective date shall be mutually agreed
            upon by the Borrower, each New Lender and the Administrative Agent,
            the Borrower shall repay all outstanding Floating Rate Loans and
            reborrow a Floating Rate Loan in a like amount from the Lenders
            (including the New Lenders), but such New Lenders shall not
            participate in any then outstanding Eurodollar Loan. If the Borrower
            shall at any time on or after such effective date convert or
            continue any Eurodollar Loan that was outstanding on such effective
            date, the Borrower shall be deemed to repay such Eurodollar Loan on
            the date of the conversion or continuation thereof and then to
            reborrow as a new Revolving Loan a like amount on such date so that
            each New Lender shall advance on such date the amount of its Pro
            Rata Share of such Revolving Loan. Such New Lender shall make its
            Pro Rata Share of all Revolving Loans made on or after such
            effective date and shall otherwise have all of the rights and
            obligations of a Lender hereunder on and after such effective date.
            To the extent any Eurodollar Loan is converted or continued after
            the effective date of an increase in the Revolving Committed Amount
            and prior to the date on which such New Lender holds its Pro Rata
            Share of all Revolving Loans, the amount funded by such New Lender
            as its Pro Rata Share of such converted or continued Loan shall be
            paid ratably to the other Lenders such that all Lenders (including
            the New Lender) hold their Pro Rata Share of such converted or
            continued Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence
            of an Event of Default prior to the date on which such New Lender is
            holding its Pro Rata Share of all outstanding Revolving Loans, such
            New Lender shall immediately (but not prior

                                       25
<PAGE>

            to such effective date) pay to the Administrative Agent (for the
            account of the other Lenders, to which the Administrative Agent
            shall pay their ratable shares thereof upon receipt) a sum equal to
            such New Lender's Pro Rata Share of each outstanding Eurodollar Loan
            with respect to which such New Lender does not then hold its Pro
            Rata Share; such payment by such New Lender shall constitute a
            Floating Rate Loan by such New Lender hereunder.

                  (iii) New Lenders' Participation in Facility LCs. Upon the
            effective date of any increase in the Revolving Committed Amount in
            accordance with the provisions of Section 2.1(e)(ii), each New
            Lender shall also be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally
            purchased and received, without recourse or warranty, from the
            Lenders party to this Agreement immediately prior to the effective
            date of such increase, an undivided interest and participation in
            all Facility LCs and Reimbursement Obligations (if any) then
            outstanding, ratably, such that each Lender (including each New
            Lender) holds a participation interest in each Facility LC and all
            Reimbursement Obligations (if any) in proportion to the ratio that
            such Lender's Commitment (upon the effective date of such increase
            in the Revolving Committed Amount) bears to the Revolving Committed
            Amount as so increased.

                  (iv) No Obligation to Increase Commitment. Nothing contained
            herein shall constitute, or otherwise be deemed to be, a commitment
            or agreement on the part of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent
            to give or grant any Lender the right to increase any Commitment
            hereunder at any time or a commitment or agreement on the part of
            any Lender to increase its Commitment hereunder at any time, and no
            Commitment of a Lender shall be increased without its prior written
            approval.

            (f) Revolving Notes. The Revolving Loans made by each Lender shall
      be evidenced by a duly executed promissory note of the Borrower to such
      Lender in an original principal amount equal to such Lender's Revolving
      Loan Commitment and in substantially the form of Exhibit 2.1(f).

                                       26

      2.2   SWINGLINE LOANS SUBFACILITY.

            (a) Swingline Loans. The Swingline Lender hereby agrees, on the
      terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein and in the other
      Credit Documents, to make revolving loans to the Borrower, in Dollars, at
      any time and from time to time during the period from and including the
      Effective Date to but not including the Maturity Date (each such loan, a
      "Swingline Loan" and collectively, the "Swingline Loans"); provided that
      (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Swingline Loans outstanding at
      any one time shall not exceed the Swingline Committed Amount, and (ii) the
      aggregate amount of Swingline Loans outstanding plus the aggregate amount
      of Revolving Loans outstanding plus the aggregate amount of LC Obligations
      outstanding shall not exceed the Revolving Committed Amount. Prior to the
      Maturity Date, Swingline Loans may be repaid and reborrowed by the
      Borrower in accordance with the provisions hereof.

            (b) Method of Borrowing and Funding Swingline Loans. By no later
      than 1:00 p.m. on the date of the requested borrowing of Swingline Loans,
      the Borrower shall provide telephonic notice to the Swingline Lender,
      followed promptly by a written Swingline Loan Request (which may be
      submitted via telecopy), each of such telephonic notice and such written
      Swingline Loan Request setting forth (i) the amount of the requested
      Swingline Loan (which shall not be less than $100,000 and in integral
      multiples of $50,000 in excess thereof), (ii) the date of the requested
      Swingline Loan, (iii) certification that the Borrower has complied in all
      respects with Section 5.2 and, to the extent that the Swingline Loan
      requested is the initial Extension of Credit, Section 5.1 and (iv) whether
      such Swingline Loan is to be a Floating Rate Loan or an Index Rate
      Swingline Loan and, if such Swingline Loan is to be an Index Rate
      Swingline Loan, the applicable Interest Period. If the Borrower has
      requested an Index Rate Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender shall provide
      to the Borrower no later than 1:30 p.m. on the date of such request the
      Adjusted LIBOR Market Index Rate. The Borrower shall notify the Swingline
      Lender by 2:00 p.m. on such date whether it wishes to accept the Adjusted
      LIBOR Market Index Rate. Failure of the Borrower to timely accept the
      Adjusted LIBOR Market Index Rate shall make the request for the Adjusted
      LIBOR Market Index Rate void, and such Swingline Loan shall be made as a
      Floating Rate Loan. The Swingline Lender shall initiate the transfer of
      funds representing the Swingline Loan advance to the Borrower by 3:00 p.m.
      on the Business Day of the requested borrowing.

            (c) Repayment and Participations of Swingline Loans. The Borrower
      agrees to repay all Swingline Loans that are Floating Rate Loans within
      one Business Day of demand therefor by the Swingline Lender and all
      Swingline Loans that are Index Rate Swingline Loans at the end of the
      applicable Interest Period; provided that each Swingline Loan shall be
      repaid within seven Business Days from the date of advance. Each repayment
      of a Swingline Loan may be accomplished by requesting Revolving Loans,
      which request is not subject to the conditions set forth in Section 5.2.
      In the event that the Borrower shall fail to timely repay any Swingline
      Loan, and in any event upon (i) the request of the Swingline Lender, (ii)
      the occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section 9.1(f) or (iii)
      the acceleration of any Loan or termination of any Commitment pursuant to
      Section 9.2, each other Lender shall irrevocably and unconditionally
      purchase

                                       27
<PAGE>

      from the Swingline Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided
      interest and participation in such Swingline Loan in an amount equal to
      such other Lender's Pro Rata Share thereof, by directly purchasing a
      participation in such Swingline Loan in such amount (regardless of whether
      the conditions precedent thereto set forth in Section 5.2 hereof are then
      satisfied (provided the Swingline Lender believed in good faith that the
      conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.2 were satisfied at the time
      of funding of such Swingline Loan), whether or not the Borrower has
      submitted a Notice of Borrowing and whether or not the Commitments are
      then in effect, any Event of Default exists or all the Loans have been
      accelerated) and paying the proceeds thereof to the Swingline Lender at
      its address specified in or pursuant to Section 11.1, in Dollars and in
      immediately available funds. If such amount is not in fact made available
      to the Swingline Lender by any Lender, the Swingline Lender shall be
      entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender, together with
      accrued interest thereon (to the extent the Borrower fails to pay accrued
      interest with respect to such amount) for each day from the date of demand
      thereof, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. If such Lender does not pay
      such amount forthwith upon the Swingline Lender's demand therefor, and
      until such time as such Lender makes the required payment, the Swingline
      Lender shall be deemed to continue to have outstanding Swingline Loans in
      the amount of such unpaid participation obligation for all purposes of the
      Credit Documents other than those provisions requiring the other Lenders
      to purchase a participation therein. Further, such Lender shall be deemed
      to have assigned any and all payments made of principal and interest on
      its Loans, and any other amounts due to it hereunder to the Swingline
      Lender to fund Swingline Loans in the amount of the participation in
      Swingline Loans that such Lender failed to purchase pursuant to this
      Section 2.2(c) until such amount has been purchased (as a result of such
      assignment or otherwise). On the date the Lenders are required to purchase
      participations in outstanding Swingline Loans pursuant to this Section
      2.2(c), the outstanding principal amount, including the Swingline Lender's
      Pro Rata Share, of such Swingline Loans shall be deemed to be a Revolving
      Loan accruing interest at the Floating Rate.

            (d) Interest on Swingline Loans. Subject to the provisions of
      Section 3.1, each Swingline Loan shall bear interest at a per annum rate
      equal to the Floating Rate or the Adjusted LIBOR Market Index Rate, as
      applicable.

            (e) Swingline Note. The Swingline Loans shall be evidenced by a duly
      executed promissory note of the Borrower to the Swingline Lender in the
      original principal amount of the Swingline Committed Amount and in
      substantially the form of Exhibit 2.2(e).

      2.3   CONTINUATIONS AND CONVERSIONS.

      The Borrower shall have the option, on any Business Day, to continue
existing Eurodollar Loans for a subsequent Interest Period, to convert Floating
Rate Loans (other than Swingline Loans) into Eurodollar Loans or to convert
Eurodollar Loans into Floating Rate Loans (other than Swingline Loans);
provided, however, that (a) each such continuation or conversion must be
requested by the Borrower pursuant to a written Notice of
Continuation/Conversion in compliance

                                       28
<PAGE>

with the terms set forth below, (b) except as provided in Section 3.11,
Eurodollar Loans may only be continued or converted into Floating Rate Loans on
the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) Eurodollar Loans may
not be continued nor may Floating Rate Loans be converted into Eurodollar Loans
during the existence and continuation of a Default or an Event of Default and
(d) any request to continue a Eurodollar Loan that fails to comply with the
terms hereof or any failure to request a continuation of a Eurodollar Loan at
the end of an Interest Period shall constitute a conversion to a Floating Rate
Loan on the last day of the applicable Interest Period. Each continuation or
conversion must be requested by the Borrower no later than 11:00 a.m. (i) on the
date for a requested conversion of a Eurodollar Loan to a Floating Rate Loan or
(ii) three Business Days prior to the date for a requested continuation of a
Eurodollar Loan or conversion of a Floating Rate Loan to a Eurodollar Loan, in
each case pursuant to a written Notice of Continuation/Conversion submitted to
the Administrative Agent which shall set forth (A) whether the Borrower wishes
to continue or convert such Loans and (B) if the request is to continue a
Eurodollar Loan or convert a Floating Rate Loan to a Eurodollar Loan, the
Interest Period applicable thereto.

      2.4   MINIMUM AMOUNTS.

      Each request for a borrowing, conversion or continuation shall be subject
to the requirements that (a) each Eurodollar Loan shall be in a minimum amount
of $5,000,000 (and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof), (b)
each Floating Rate Loan shall be in a minimum amount of the lesser of $1,000,000
(and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof) or the remaining amount
available under the Revolving Committed Amount and (c) each Swingline Loan shall
be in a minimum amount of $100,000 (and in integral multiples of $50,000 in
excess thereof) or the remaining amount of the Swingline Committed Amount. For
the purposes of this Section, all Eurodollar Loans with the same Interest
Periods that begin and end on the same date shall be considered as one
Eurodollar Loan, but Eurodollar Loans with different Interest Periods, even if
they begin on the same date, shall be considered as separate Eurodollar Loans.

      2.5   EXTENSION OF MATURITY DATE.

            (a) Not more than once each fiscal year of the Borrower, the
      Borrower may, by delivering a written notice to the Administrative Agent,
      request that the Maturity Date be extended for one additional year,
      provided the requested Maturity Date is not more than five (5) years from
      the date of such request. The Administrative Agent shall notify each
      Lender of such request promptly upon its receipt of such notice and shall
      request that each Lender respond to such request by the Borrower within
      sixty (60) days of the Administrative Agent's notice to the Lenders. If
      any Lender does not consent in writing or respond to the Borrower's
      request then such Lender (a "Refusing Lender") shall be deemed to have
      rejected such request. If Lenders whose combined Pro Rata Shares equal at
      least 66-2/3% (the "Extension Required Lenders"; each Lender agreeing to
      extend its Revolving Loan Commitment is referred to herein as an
      "Extending Lender") agree in writing within such 60-day period to extend
      their Revolving Loan Commitments, and provided that, on the last day of
      such 60-day period (x) the representations and warranties made by the
      Credit Parties in any Credit Document are true and correct in all material
      respects at and as if made as of such date except to the extent they
      expressly relate to an

                                       29
<PAGE>

      earlier date and (y) no Default or Event of Default shall exist or be
      continuing either prior to or after giving effect thereto and the Borrower
      deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate so stating, then (i)
      effective on the last day of such 60-day period the Revolving Loan
      Commitments of the Extending Lenders shall without further action be
      extended for an additional one-year period, (ii) the term "Maturity Date"
      shall thenceforth mean, (A) as to the Commitments and Loans of the
      Extending Lenders, the last day of such additional one-year period and (B)
      as to the Commitments and Loans of the Refusing Lenders, the Maturity Date
      in effect prior to such extension (each a "RL Maturity Date"), (iii)
      subject to the terms of subsection (b) below, the Revolving Loan
      Commitments of the Refusing Lenders shall terminate on the applicable RL
      Maturity Date and the Loans and other amounts owed to such Lenders shall
      be due and payable on such date, (iv) subject to the terms of subsection
      (b) below, on such RL Maturity Date (A) the Revolving Committed Amount
      shall be reduced by an amount equal to the sum of the Revolving Loan
      Commitments of the applicable Refusing Lenders and (B) the Pro Rata Shares
      of the Extending Lenders shall be reallocated so that the sum of such Pro
      Rata Shares equals one hundred percent (100%) and (v) if the Outstanding
      Credit Extensions, after the payment provided for in clause (iii) above,
      exceed the Revolving Committed Amount (as so reduced) (A) the Borrower
      shall pay on such RL Maturity Date Loans in the amount necessary to cause
      the Outstanding Credit Extensions to equal but not exceed the Revolving
      Committed Amount and (B) if the outstanding LC Obligations exceed the
      Revolving Committed Amount (as so reduced), the Borrower shall pay to the
      Administrative Agent on such RL Maturity Date an amount in immediately
      available funds equal to the amount by which the outstanding LC
      Obligations exceed the Revolving Committed Amount, which funds shall be
      held in the Facility LC Collateral Account in accordance with and subject
      to the terms of Section 9.3(e). If such extension is not approved in
      writing by the Extension Required Lenders within such 60-day period, the
      Maturity Date then in effect will be retained.

            (b) So long as the Extension Required Lenders consent to the
      extension of the Maturity Date in accordance with the terms of Section
      2.5(a):

                  (i) with respect to any Refusing Lender, the Borrower may
            request, in its own discretion and at its own expense, such Refusing
            Lender to transfer and assign (and such Refusing Lender shall be
            required to transfer and assign upon such request) in whole (but not
            in part), without recourse, representation or warranty (except as
            provided in Section 11.3(b)) and otherwise in accordance with and
            subject to the terms of Section 11.3(b), all of its interests,
            rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement to one or more
            Eligible Assignees (which may be one or more existing Lenders if any
            existing Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (A) such
            assignment or assignments shall not conflict with any law, rule,
            regulation or order of any court or other Governmental Authority,
            (B) the Borrower or such Eligible Assignee or Eligible Assignees
            shall pay to such Refusing Lender in immediately available funds the
            principal of and interest accrued to the date of such payment on the
            portion of the Loans hereunder held by such Refusing Lender and all
            other amounts owed to such Refusing Lender hereunder, as well as any
            processing fee owing to the Administrative

                                       30
<PAGE>

            Agent under Section 11.3(b), (C) the maturity date of the Loans
            transferred to such Eligible Assignee shall be the Maturity Date as
            extended in accordance with Section 2.5(a) above and (D) such
            transfer and assignment must occur on or prior to the applicable RL
            Maturity Date; or

                  (ii) the Borrower may (A) notify the Administrative Agent and
            the Extending Lenders in writing that it wishes to (and each such
            Extending Lender shall agree to) reduce the Revolving Loan Committed
            Amount by an amount equal to the sum of the Revolving Loan
            Commitments of the Refusing Lenders, (B) pay all outstanding Loans
            of the Refusing Lenders and any other amounts owing to the Refusing
            Lenders, and terminate the Revolving Loan Commitments of the
            Refusing Lenders (at which time their participations in all Facility
            LCs and LC Obligations shall also terminate) and (C) reallocate the
            Pro Rata Share of the Extending Lenders, on a pro rata basis, so
            that the sum of such Pro Rata Shares equals one hundred percent
            (100%).

            (c) The Borrower shall indemnify each Lender (whether an Extending
      Lender or Refusing Lender) for any loss or expense payable to such Lender
      pursuant to Section 3.14 as a result of any extension of the Maturity Date
      pursuant to this Section 2.5 and any assignment of such Lender's
      Commitments and Loans or any reallocation of such Lender's Pro Rata Share
      in connection with such extension.

            (d) Each of the Lenders hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent,
      on its behalf, to enter into an amendment to this Credit Agreement (and
      the Borrower hereby agrees to enter into any such amendment on terms
      reasonably acceptable to the Credit Parties and the Administrative Agent)
      to effectuate any extension of the Maturity Date, reduction of the
      Revolving Committed Amount, repayment of Loans or reallocation of the Pro
      Rata Shares, in each case as expressly contemplated by the terms of this
      Section 2.5.

      2.6   TELEPHONIC NOTICES.

      The Borrower hereby authorizes the Lenders and the Administrative Agent to
extend, convert or continue Loans, effect selections of Floating Rate Loans,
Eurodollar Loans and Index Rate Swingline Loans and to transfer funds based on
telephonic notices made by any person or persons the Administrative Agent or any
Lender in good faith believes to be acting on behalf of the Borrower, it being
understood that the foregoing authorization is specifically intended to allow
Notices of Borrowing, Notices of Continuation/Conversion and Swingline Loan
Requests to be given telephonically. The Borrower agrees to deliver promptly to
the Administrative Agent a written confirmation, if such confirmation is
requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, of each telephonic notice
signed by an authorized officer of the Borrower. If the written confirmation
differs in any material respect from the action taken by the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders, the records of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
shall govern absent manifest error.

      2.7   LENDING INSTALLATIONS.

                                       31
<PAGE>

            Each Lender may book its Loans and its participation in any LC
Obligations and each LC Issuer may book the Facility LCs issued by it at any
Lending Installation selected by such Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may
be, and may change its Lending Installation from time to time. All terms of this
Agreement shall apply to any such Lending Installation and the Loans, Facility
LCs, participations in LC Obligations and any Notes issued hereunder shall be
deemed held by each Lender or LC Issuer, as the case may be, for the benefit of
any such Lending Installation. Each Lender and LC Issuer may, by written notice
to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in accordance with Section 11.1,
designate replacement or additional Lending Installations through which Loans
will be made by it or Facility LCs will be issued by it and for whose account
Loan payments or payments with respect to Facility LCs are to be made.

                                    SECTION 3

                     GENERAL PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO LOANS

      3.1   INTEREST.

            (a) Interest. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.1(b):

                  (i) Floating Rate Loans. During such periods as Loans shall be
            comprised in whole or in part of Floating Rate Loans, such Floating
            Rate Loans shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the
            Floating Rate.

                  (ii) Eurodollar Loans. During such periods as Loans shall be
            comprised in whole or in part of Eurodollar Loans, such Eurodollar
            Loans shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the
            Eurodollar Rate.

                  (iii) Swingline Loans. Swingline Loans shall bear interest in
            accordance with the terms of Section 2.2(d).

            (b) Default Rate of Interest. Upon the occurrence, and during the
      continuance, of an Event of Default, upon notice from the Administrative
      Agent at the direction of the Required Lenders (or, in the case of an
      Event of Default under Section 9.1(f), automatically without notice or any
      action) (i) the principal of and, to the extent permitted by law, interest
      on the Loans and any other amounts owing hereunder or under the other
      Credit Documents (including without limitation fees and expenses) shall
      bear interest, payable on demand, at a per annum rate equal to two percent
      (2%) plus the rate which would otherwise be applicable (or if no rate is
      applicable, then the rate for Revolving Loans that are Floating Rate Loans
      plus two percent (2%) per annum) and (ii) the Facility LC Fee Rate shall
      be increased to a per annum rate equal to two percent (2%) plus the
      Facility LC Fee Rate which would otherwise be applicable.

            (c) Interest Payments. Interest on Loans shall be due and payable in
      arrears on each Interest Payment Date. If an Interest Payment Date falls
      on a date which is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date shall be
      deemed to be the next succeeding

                                       32
<PAGE>

      Business Day, except that in the case of Eurodollar Loans where the next
      succeeding Business Day falls in the next succeeding calendar month, then
      such Interest Payment Date shall be deemed to be the next preceding
      Business Day.

      3.2   PLACE AND MANNER OF PAYMENTS.

      All payments of principal, interest, fees, expenses and other amounts to
be made by a Credit Party under this Credit Agreement shall be made without
setoff, deduction or counterclaim and received not later than 1:00 p.m. on the
date when due, in Dollars and in immediately available funds, by the
Administrative Agent at its address specified in or pursuant to Section 11.1.
Payments received after such time shall be deemed to have been received on the
next Business Day. The Borrower shall, at the time it makes any payment under
this Credit Agreement, specify to the Administrative Agent the Loans, fees or
other amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder to which such payment is to be
applied (and in the event that it fails to specify, or if such application would
be inconsistent with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall, subject
to Section 3.7, distribute such payment to the Lenders in such manner as the
Administrative Agent may deem appropriate). The Administrative Agent will
distribute such payments to the applicable Lenders on the same Business Day if
any such payment is received prior to 1:00 p.m.; otherwise the Administrative
Agent will distribute such payment to the applicable Lenders not later than the
next succeeding Business Day. Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to
be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be
extended to the next succeeding Business Day (subject to accrual of interest and
fees for the period of such extension), except that in the case of Eurodollar
Loans, if the extension would cause the payment to be made in the next following
calendar month, then such payment shall instead be made on the next preceding
Business Day.

      3.3   PREPAYMENTS.

            (a) Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right to
      prepay Loans in whole or in part from time to time without premium or
      penalty; provided, however, that (i) Eurodollar Loans may only be prepaid
      on three Business Days' prior written notice to the Administrative Agent
      and (ii) each such partial prepayment of Loans shall be in the minimum
      principal amount of (A) $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in
      excess thereof for Revolving Loans and (B) $100,000 and integral multiples
      of $50,000 in excess thereof for Swingline Loans. All prepayments under
      this Section shall be subject to Section 3.14 and be accompanied by
      interest on the principal amount prepaid through the date of prepayment.

            (b) Mandatory Prepayments. If, at any time, the sum of the aggregate
      amount of Revolving Loans outstanding plus Swingline Loans outstanding
      plus the aggregate amount of all LC Obligations exceeds the Revolving
      Committed Amount, the Borrower shall immediately make a principal payment
      to the Administrative Agent in the manner and in an amount such that the
      sum of the aggregate amount of Revolving Loans outstanding plus Swingline
      Loans outstanding plus the aggregate amount of all LC Obligations
      outstanding is less than or equal to the Revolving Committed Amount (to be
      applied as set forth in Section 3.3(c) below).

                                       33
<PAGE>

            (c) Application of Prepayments. All amounts required to be paid
      pursuant to Section 3.3(b) shall be applied first to Swingline Loans and
      second to Revolving Loans. Within the parameters of the applications set
      forth above, prepayments shall be applied first to Floating Rate Loans and
      then to Eurodollar Loans (or Index Rate Swingline Loans, as applicable) in
      direct order of Interest Period maturities. All prepayments hereunder
      shall be subject to Section 3.14 and shall be accompanied by interest on
      the principal amount prepaid through the date of prepayment.

      3.4   FEES.

            (a) Commitment Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the
      Administrative Agent for the pro rata benefit of the Lenders commitment
      fees ("Commitment Fees") at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable
      Percentage (for Commitment Fees) of the Unused Revolving Committed Amount,
      payable in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date and upon the Maturity
      Date and any earlier date on which the Commitments are terminated
      hereunder, provided, however, that the Swingline Loans shall constitute
      usage only of the Revolving Credit Commitment of the Swingline Lender.

            (b) Administrative Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the
      Administrative Agent, for its own account, administrative fees (the
      "Administrative Fees") in accordance with the terms of the Fee Letter.

            (c) Extension Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative
      Agent for the pro rata benefit of each Extending Lender, at the time of
      any extension of the Maturity Date pursuant to Section 2.5, such extension
      fees as are agreed upon among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and
      such Extending Lenders.

            (d) Upfront Fees. In consideration of the Revolving Committed Amount
      being made available by the Lenders hereunder, the Borrower agrees to pay
      to each Lender an upfront fee in accordance with the terms of the
      Arranger's invitation letter to prospective Lenders dated August 3, 2004
      (the "Upfront Fees"). The Upfront Fees shall be due and payable on or
      prior to the Effective Date.

      3.5   PAYMENT IN FULL AT MATURITY.

      On the Maturity Date, the entire outstanding principal balance of all
Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans, together with accrued but unpaid interest
and all other sums owing with respect thereto, shall be due and payable in full,
unless accelerated sooner pursuant to Section 9.2.

                                       34
<PAGE>

      3.6   COMPUTATIONS OF INTEREST AND FEES.

            (a) Except for Floating Rate Loans and Swingline Loans, in which
      case interest shall be computed on the basis of a 365 or 366 day year as
      the case may be, all computations of interest and fees hereunder shall be
      made on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360
      days. Interest shall accrue from and include the date of borrowing (or
      continuation or conversion) but exclude the date of payment.

            (b) It is the intent of the Lenders and the Credit Parties to
      conform to and contract in strict compliance with applicable usury law
      from time to time in effect. All agreements between the Lenders and the
      Borrower are hereby limited by the provisions of this paragraph which
      shall override and control all such agreements, whether now existing or
      hereafter arising and whether written or oral. In no way, nor in any event
      or contingency (including but not limited to prepayment or acceleration of
      the maturity of any obligation), shall the interest taken, reserved,
      contracted for, charged, or received under this Credit Agreement, under
      the Notes or otherwise, exceed the maximum nonusurious amount permissible
      under applicable law. If, from any possible construction of any of the
      Credit Documents or any other document, interest would otherwise be
      payable in excess of the maximum nonusurious amount, any such construction
      shall be subject to the provisions of this paragraph and such documents
      shall be automatically reduced to the maximum nonusurious amount permitted
      under applicable law, without the necessity of execution of any amendment
      or new document. If any Lender shall ever receive anything of value which
      is characterized as interest on the Loans under applicable law and which
      would, apart from this provision, be in excess of the maximum lawful
      amount, an amount equal to the amount which would have been excessive
      interest shall, without penalty, be applied to the reduction of the
      principal amount owing on the Loans and not to the payment of interest, or
      refunded to the Borrower or the other payor thereof if and to the extent
      such amount which would have been excessive exceeds such unpaid principal
      amount of the Loans. The right to demand payment of the Loans or any other
      Indebtedness evidenced by any of the Credit Documents does not include the
      right to accelerate the payment of any interest which has not otherwise
      accrued on the date of such demand, and the Lenders do not intend to
      charge or receive any unearned interest in the event of such demand. All
      interest paid or agreed to be paid to the Lenders with respect to the
      Loans shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized,
      prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term (including
      any renewal or extension) of the Loans so that the amount of interest on
      account of such Indebtedness does not exceed the maximum nonusurious
      amount permitted by applicable law.

      3.7   PRO RATA TREATMENT.

      Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, each Revolving Loan
borrowing, each payment or prepayment of principal of any Revolving Loan, each
payment of fees (other than the Administrative Fees retained by the
Administrative Agent for its own account and fees payable to a LC Issuer), each
reduction of the Revolving Committed Amount, and each conversion or continuation
of any Revolving Loan, shall (except as otherwise provided in Section 3.11) be
allocated pro rata among the relevant Lenders in accordance with the respective
Pro Rata Shares of

                                       35
<PAGE>

such Lenders (or, if the Commitments of such Lenders have expired or been
terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of the
outstanding Loans and Participation Interests of such Lenders); provided that,
if any Lender shall have failed to pay its applicable pro rata share of any
Revolving Loan, then any amount to which such Lender would otherwise be entitled
pursuant to this Section 3.7 shall instead be payable to the Administrative
Agent until the share of such Revolving Loan not funded by such Lender has been
repaid; provided further, that in the event any amount paid to any Lender
pursuant to this Section 3.7 is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the
Administrative Agent, each Lender shall, upon the request of the Administrative
Agent, repay to the Administrative Agent the amount so paid to such Lender, with
interest for the period commencing on the date such payment is returned by the
Administrative Agent until the date the Administrative Agent receives such
repayment at a rate per annum equal to, during the period to but excluding the
date two Business Days after such request, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, and
thereafter, the Floating Rate plus two percent (2%) per annum.

      3.8   SHARING OF PAYMENTS.

      The Lenders agree among themselves that, except to the extent otherwise
provided herein, in the event that any Lender shall obtain payment in respect of
any Loan or any other obligation owing to such Lender under this Credit
Agreement through the exercise of a right of setoff, banker's lien or
counterclaim, or pursuant to a secured claim under Section 506 of the Bankruptcy
Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured
claim, received by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or
other similar law or otherwise, or by any other means, in excess of its pro rata
share of such payment as provided for in this Credit Agreement, such Lender
shall promptly pay in cash or purchase from the other Lenders a participation in
such Loans and other obligations in such amounts, and make such other
adjustments from time to time, as shall be equitable to the end that all Lenders
share such payment in accordance with their respective ratable shares as
provided for in this Credit Agreement. The Lenders further agree among
themselves that if payment to a Lender obtained by such Lender through the
exercise of a right of setoff, banker's lien, counterclaim or other event as
aforesaid shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored, each Lender which
shall have shared the benefit of such payment shall, by payment in cash or a
repurchase of a participation theretofore sold, return its share of that benefit
(together with its share of any accrued interest payable with respect thereto)
to each Lender whose payment shall have been rescinded or otherwise restored.
The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing such a participation may, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all rights of payment, including
setoff, banker's lien or counterclaim, with respect to such participation as
fully as if such Lender were a holder of such Loan or other obligation in the
amount of such participation. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this
Credit Agreement, if any Lender or the Administrative Agent shall fail to remit
to the Administrative Agent or any other Lender an amount payable by such Lender
or such Administrative Agent to such Administrative Agent or such other Lender
pursuant to this Credit Agreement on the date when such amount is due, such
payments shall be made together with interest thereon for each date from the
date such amount is due until the date such amount is paid to such
Administrative Agent or such other Lender at a rate per annum equal to the
Federal Funds Effective Rate. If under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or
other similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to
which this Section 3.8 applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable,
exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner

                                       36
<PAGE>

consistent with the rights of the Lenders under this Section 3.8 to share in the
benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.

      3.9   CAPITAL ADEQUACY.

      If, after the date hereof, any Lender or LC Issuer has determined that the
adoption or the becoming effective of, or any change in, or any change by any
Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the
interpretation or administration thereof in the interpretation or administration
of, any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or
compliance by such Lender or LC Issuer, or the parent corporation of such Lender
or LC Issuer, with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether
or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or
comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return
on such Lender's or LC Issuer's (or parent corporation's) capital or assets as a
consequence of its commitments or obligations hereunder to a level below that
which such Lender or LC Issuer, or the parent corporation of such Lender or LC
Issuer, could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, change or
compliance (taking into consideration such Lender's or LC Issuer's (or parent
corporation's) policies with respect to capital adequacy), then, upon written
notice from such Lender or LC Issuer to the Borrower, the Borrower shall be
obligated to pay to such Lender or LC Issuer such additional amount or amounts
as will compensate such Lender or LC Issuer on an after-tax basis (after taking
into account applicable deductions and credits in respect of the amount
indemnified) for such reduction. Each such written notice of a determination by
any such Lender or LC Issuer of amounts owing under this Section 3.9 shall set
forth and certify in reasonable detail the basis for such determination and the
calculation of amounts so owing, which certification shall, absent manifest
error, be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained herein, the Borrower shall not be required to make any
payments to any Lender or LC Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this
Section 3.9 relating to any period of time which is greater than 90 days prior
to such Person's request for additional payment except for retroactive
application of such law, rule or regulation, in which case the Borrower is
required to make such payments so long as such Person makes a request therefor
within 90 days after the public announcement of such retroactive application.
This covenant shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement and the
payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

      3.10  INABILITY TO DETERMINE INTEREST RATE.

      If prior to the first day of any Interest Period, the Administrative Agent
shall have determined in good faith (which determination shall be conclusive and
binding upon the Borrower) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the
relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the
Eurodollar Base Rate for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall
give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders as
soon as practicable thereafter, and will also give prompt written notice to the
Borrower when such conditions no longer exist. If such notice is given (a) any
Eurodollar Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period
shall be made as Floating Rate Loans and (b) any Loans that were to have been
converted on the first day of such Interest Period to or continued as Eurodollar
Loans shall be converted to or continued as Floating Rate Loans. Until such
notice is withdrawn by

                                       37
<PAGE>

the Administrative Agent, no further Eurodollar Loans shall be made or continued
as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert Floating Rate Loans to
Eurodollar Loans.

      3.11  ILLEGALITY.

      Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any
change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof
occurring after the Closing Date shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make
or maintain Eurodollar Loans as contemplated by this Credit Agreement, (a) such
Lender shall promptly give written notice of such circumstances to the Borrower
and the Administrative Agent (which notice shall be withdrawn whenever such
circumstances no longer exist), (b) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to
make Eurodollar Loans, continue Eurodollar Loans as such and convert a Floating
Rate Loan to Eurodollar Loans shall forthwith be canceled and, until such time
as it shall no longer be unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar
Loans, such Lender shall then have a commitment only to make a Floating Rate
Loan when a Eurodollar Loan is requested and (c) such Lender's Loans then
outstanding as Eurodollar Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to
Floating Rate Loans on the respective last days of the then current Interest
Periods with respect to such Loans or within such earlier period as required by
law. If any such conversion of a Eurodollar Loan occurs on a day which is not
the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the
Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required
pursuant to Section 3.14.

      3.12  REQUIREMENTS OF LAW.

      If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the
interpretation or application thereof applicable to any Lender or LC Issuer, or
compliance by any Lender or LC Issuer with any request or directive (whether or
not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental
Authority, in each case made subsequent to the Closing Date (or, if later, the
date on which such Lender becomes a Lender):

            (a) shall subject such Lender or LC Issuer to any tax of any kind
      whatsoever with respect to any Eurodollar Loans made by it or its
      obligation to make Eurodollar Loans or with respect to any Facility LCs or
      its participation therein, or change the basis of taxation of payments to
      such Lender or LC Issuer in respect thereof (except for Non-Excluded Taxes
      covered by Section 3.13 (including Non-Excluded Taxes imposed solely by
      reason of any failure of such Lender to comply with its obligations under
      Section 3.13(b)) and changes in taxes measured by or imposed upon the
      overall net income, or franchise tax (imposed in lieu of such net income
      tax), of such Lender or LC Issuer or its applicable lending office,
      branch, or any affiliate thereof);

            (b) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special
      deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by,
      deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or
      other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any
      office of such Lender or LC Issuer which is not otherwise included in the
      determination of the Eurodollar Base Rate hereunder; or

                                       38
<PAGE>

            (c) shall impose on such Lender or LC Issuer any other condition
      (excluding any tax of any kind whatsoever);

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender or
LC Issuer, by an amount which such Lender or LC Issuer deems to be material, of
making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Eurodollar Loans or issuing
or participating in any Facility LC or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder
in respect thereof, then, in any such case, upon notice to the Borrower from
such Lender or LC Issuer, through the Administrative Agent, in accordance
herewith, the Borrower shall be obligated to promptly pay such Lender or LC
Issuer , upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such
Lender or LC Issuer on an after-tax basis (after taking into account applicable
deductions and credits in respect of the amount indemnified) for such increased
cost or reduced amount receivable, provided that, in any such case, the Borrower
may elect to convert the Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender hereunder to
Floating Rate Loans by giving the Administrative Agent at least one Business
Day's notice of such election, in which case the Borrower shall promptly pay to
such Lender or LC Issuer, upon demand, without duplication, such amounts, if
any, as may be required pursuant to Section 3.14. If any Lender or LC Issuer
becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.12,
it shall provide prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower, through the
Administrative Agent, certifying (x) that one of the events described in this
Section 3.12 has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such
event, (y) as to the increased cost or reduced amount resulting from such event
and (z) as to the additional amount demanded by such Lender or LC Issuer and a
reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof. Such a certificate
as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 3.12 submitted by
such Lender or LC Issuer, through the Administrative Agent, to the Borrower
shall be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto in the absence of manifest
error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement and
the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Borrower shall
not be required to make any payments to any Lender or LC Issuer or the
Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section relating to any period of time
which is greater than 90 days prior to such Person's request for additional
payment except for retroactive application of such law, rule or regulation, in
which case the Borrower is required to make such payments so long as such Person
makes a request therefor within 90 days after the public announcement of such
retroactive application.

      3.13  TAXES.

            (a) Withholding. Except as provided below in this Section 3.13, all
      payments made by the Borrower under this Credit Agreement and any Notes
      shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for
      or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes,
      levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or
      hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any court,
      or governmental body, agency or other official, excluding taxes measured
      by or imposed upon the net income of any Lender or its applicable lending
      office, or any branch or affiliate thereof, and all franchise taxes,
      branch taxes, taxes on doing business or taxes on the capital or net worth
      of any Lender or its applicable lending office, or any branch or affiliate
      thereof, in each case imposed in lieu of net income taxes: (i) by the
      jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender, applicable lending
      office, branch or

                                       39
<PAGE>

      affiliate is organized or is located, or in which its principal executive
      office is located, or any nation within which such jurisdiction is located
      or any political subdivision thereof; or (ii) by reason of any connection
      between the jurisdiction imposing such tax and such Lender, applicable
      lending office, branch or affiliate other than a connection arising solely
      from such Lender having executed, delivered or performed its obligations,
      or received payment under or enforced, this Credit Agreement or any Notes.
      If any such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees,
      deductions or withholdings ("Non-Excluded Taxes") are required to be
      withheld from any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or any
      Lender hereunder or under any Notes, (A) the amounts so payable to the
      Administrative Agent or such Lender shall be increased to the extent
      necessary to yield to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (after
      payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes) interest or any such other amounts
      payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Credit
      Agreement and any Notes, provided, however, that the Borrower shall be
      entitled to deduct and withhold any Non-Excluded Taxes and shall not be
      required to increase any such amounts payable to any Lender if such Lender
      fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph (b) of this Section
      3.13 whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes are payable by the Borrower, (B) as
      promptly as possible after requested the Borrower shall send to such
      Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of such
      Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official
      receipt received by the Borrower showing payment thereof and (C) with
      respect to any withholding of United States federal income tax, the
      Borrower shall apply to the payments the required withholding tax rates
      provided by the applicable United States withholding tax rules, including
      but not limited to Internal Revenue Code Section 1441, 1442, 3406 and
      6049. If the Borrower fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes when due to the
      appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent
      the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower
      shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and any Lender for any
      incremental Non-Excluded Taxes, interest or penalties that may become
      payable by the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of any such
      failure. The agreements in this subsection shall survive the termination
      of this Credit Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other
      amounts payable hereunder.

            (b) U.S. and Non-U.S. Lenders

                  (i) Each Lender, including each Lender that is not
            incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or a
            state thereof (each a "Non-U.S. Lender"), agrees that it will, not
            more than ten (10) Business Days after the date of this Agreement,
            (i) deliver to the Administrative Agent two duly completed copies of
            the applicable United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 or
            W-9, including but not limited to United States Internal Revenue
            Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI or (ii) in the case of a Non-U.S.
            Lender claiming exemption from the withholding of United States
            federal income tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with
            respect to payments of "portfolio interest," deliver two duly
            completed copies of the applicable United States Internal Revenue
            Service Form W-8, including but not limited to a United States
            Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN and a certificate representing
            that such Lender is not (A) a "bank"

                                       40
<PAGE>

            for purposes of Section 881(c) of the Code, (B) a ten-percent
            shareholder of the Borrower (within the meaning of Section
            871(h)(3)(B) of the Code) or (C) a controlled foreign corporation
            related to the Borrower (within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of
            the Code), certifying in either case that such Lender is entitled to
            receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or
            withholding of any United States federal income taxes. Each Lender
            further undertakes to deliver to each of the Borrower and the
            Administrative Agent (x) renewals or additional copies of such form
            (or any successor form) on or before the date that such form expires
            or becomes obsolete, and (y) after the occurrence of any event
            requiring a change in the most recent forms so delivered by it, such
            additional forms or amendments thereto as may be reasonably
            requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent. All forms or
            amendments described in the preceding sentence shall certify that
            such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement
            without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income
            taxes, unless an event (including without limitation any change in
            treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which
            any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such
            forms inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender from duly
            completing and delivering any such form or amendment with respect to
            it and such Lender advises the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
            that it is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction
            or withholding of United States federal income tax.

                  (ii) For any period during which a Lender has failed to
            provide the Borrower with an appropriate form pursuant to clause (i)
            above (unless such failure is due to a change in treaty, law or
            regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration
            thereof by any governmental authority, occurring subsequent to the
            date on which a form originally was required to be provided), such
            Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under this Section
            3.13 with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States; provided
            that, should a Lender which is otherwise exempt from or subject to a
            reduced rate of withholding tax become subject to Taxes because of
            its failure to deliver a form required under clause (i) above, the
            Borrower shall take such steps as such Lender shall reasonably
            request to assist such Lender to recover such Taxes.

                  (iii) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or
            reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments under this
            Agreement or any Note pursuant to the law of any relevant
            jurisdiction or any treaty shall deliver to the Borrower (with a
            copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed
            by applicable law, such properly completed and executed
            documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such
            payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate.

                  (iv) If the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or any other
            governmental authority of the United States or any other country or
            any political subdivision thereof asserts a claim that the
            Administrative Agent or the Borrower, as applicable, did not
            properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account

                                       41
<PAGE>

            of any Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered or
            properly completed, because such Lender failed to notify the
            Administrative Agent or the Borrower, as applicable, of a change in
            circumstances which rendered its exemption from withholding
            ineffective, or for any other reason), such Lender shall indemnify
            the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, as applicable, fully for
            all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative
            Agent or the Borrower, as applicable, as tax, withholding therefor,
            or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and including taxes
            imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable to the Administrative
            Agent or the Borrower, as applicable, under this subsection,
            together with all costs and expenses related thereto (including
            attorneys fees and time charges of attorneys for the Administrative
            Agent or the Borrower, as applicable, which attorneys may be
            employees of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, as
            applicable). The obligations of the Lenders under this clause (iv)
            shall survive the payment of the Obligations and termination of this
            Agreement.

                  (v) Notwithstanding the above, if any change in treaty, law or
            regulation has occurred after the date such Person becomes a Lender
            hereunder which renders all such forms (or successor forms)
            inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender from duly completing
            and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Lender so
            advises the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, then such Lender
            shall be exempt from such requirements. Each Person that shall
            become a Lender or a participant of a Lender pursuant to Section
            11.3 shall, upon the effectiveness of the related transfer, be
            required to provide all of the forms, certifications and statements
            required pursuant to this subsection (b); provided that in the case
            of a participant of a Lender, the obligations of such participant of
            a Lender pursuant to this subsection (b) shall be determined as if
            the participant of a Lender were a Lender except that such
            participant of a Lender shall furnish all such required forms,
            certifications and statements to the Lender from which the related
            participation shall have been purchased.

      3.14  COMPENSATION.

      The Borrower promises to indemnify each Lender and to hold each Lender
harmless from any loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur as a
consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion
into or continuation of Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has given a notice
requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Credit Agreement,
(b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment of a Eurodollar Loan after
the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of
this Credit Agreement and (c) the making of a prepayment of Eurodollar Loans on
a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Such
indemnification may include an amount equal to (i) the amount of interest which
would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or
continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to
borrow, convert or continue to the last day of the applicable Interest Period
(or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest
Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at
the applicable rate of interest for such Eurodollar Loans provided for herein
(excluding,

                                       42
<PAGE>

however, the Applicable Percentage included therein, if any) minus (ii) the
amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) which would have
accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a
comparable period with leading banks in the interbank Eurodollar market. The
agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this Credit
Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

      3.15  SUBSTITUTION OF LENDER.

      If (a) the obligation of any Lender to make Eurodollar Loans has been
suspended pursuant to Section 3.11 or (b) any Lender has demanded compensation
under Section 3.9, 3.11, 3.12, 3.13 or 3.14, the Borrower shall have the right,
with the assistance of the Administrative Agent, to seek a mutually satisfactory
substitute lender or lenders. Any substitution under this Section 3.15 may be
accomplished, at the Borrower's option, either (i) by the replaced Lender
assigning its rights and obligations hereunder to a replacement lender or
lenders pursuant to Section 11.3(b) at a mutually agreeable price or (ii) by the
Borrower's prepaying all outstanding Loans from the replaced Lender and
terminating such Lender's Commitment on a date specified in a notice delivered
to the Administrative Agent and the replaced Lender at least three Business Days
before the date so specified (and compensating such Lender for any resulting
funding losses as provided in Section 3.14 but otherwise without premium or
penalty) and concurrently a replacement Lender or Lenders assuming a Commitment
in an amount equal to the Commitment being terminated and making Loans in the
same aggregate amount and having the same maturity date or dates, respectively,
as the Loans being prepaid, all pursuant to documents reasonably satisfactory to
the Administrative Agent (and in the case of any document to be signed by the
replaced Lender, reasonably satisfactory to such Lender). No such substitution
shall relieve the Borrower of its obligations to compensate and/or indemnify the
replaced Lender as required by Section 3.9, 3.11, 3.12, 3.13 or 3.14 with
respect to the period before it is replaced and to pay all accrued interest,
accrued fees and other amounts owing to the replaced Lender hereunder.

      3.16  EVIDENCE OF DEBT.

            (a) Each Lender shall maintain an account or accounts evidencing
      each Loan made by such Lender to the Borrower from time to time, including
      the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from
      time to time under this Credit Agreement. Each Lender will make reasonable
      efforts to maintain the accuracy of its account or accounts and to
      promptly update its account or accounts from time to time, as necessary.

            (b) The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to
      Section 11.3(c), and a subaccount for each Lender, in which Register and
      subaccounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the amount, type and
      Interest Period of each such Loan hereunder, (ii) the amount of any
      principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable to each
      Lender hereunder, and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the
      Administrative Agent hereunder from or for the account of the Borrower and
      each Lender's share thereof, if any. The Administrative Agent will make
      reasonable efforts to maintain the accuracy of the subaccounts referred to
      in the preceding sentence and to promptly update such subaccounts from
      time to time, as necessary.

                                       43
<PAGE>

            (c) The entries made in the accounts, Register and subaccounts
      maintained pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section 3.16 (and, if
      consistent with the entries of the Administrative Agent, subsection (a))
      shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the
      obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided, however, that the
      failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such
      account, such Register, or such subaccount, as applicable, or any error
      therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to
      repay the Loans made by such Lender in accordance with the terms hereof.

                                    SECTION 4

                                  FACILITY LCs

      4.1   ISSUANCE.

      Each LC Issuer hereby agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in
this Agreement, to issue standby Letters of Credit (each such Letter of Credit
and each Existing Letter of Credit, a "Facility LC") and to renew, extend,
increase, decrease or otherwise modify each Facility LC ("Modify," and each such
action a "Modification"), from time to time from and including the date of this
Agreement and not later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Maturity Date
upon the request of the Borrower; provided that immediately after each such
Facility LC is issued or Modified, (i) the aggregate amount of the outstanding
LC Obligations shall not exceed the Aggregate LC Commitment and (ii) the sum of
the aggregate amount of Revolving Loans outstanding plus the aggregate amount of
Swingline Loans outstanding plus the aggregate amount of all LC Obligations
outstanding shall not exceed the Revolving Committed Amount. No Facility LC
shall have an expiry date later than the fifth (5th) Business Day prior to the
Maturity Date.

      4.2   PARTICIPATIONS.

      Upon the Effective Date (in the case of the Existing Letters of Credit)
and upon issuance or Modification by an LC Issuer of a Facility LC in accordance
with this Section 4, such LC Issuer shall be deemed, without further action by
any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably sold to each Lender,
and each Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to
have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from such LC Issuer, a
participation in such Facility LC (and each Modification thereof) and the
related LC Obligations in proportion to its Pro Rata Share.

      4.3   NOTICE.

      Subject to Section 4.1, the Borrower shall give the LC Issuer notice prior
to 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at least one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed
date of issuance or Modification of each Facility LC, specifying the
beneficiary, the proposed date of issuance (or Modification) and the expiry date
of such Facility LC, and describing the proposed terms of such Facility LC and
the nature of the transactions proposed to be supported thereby (the "Facility
LC

                                       44
<PAGE>

Request"). Upon receipt of such Facility LC Request, the LC Issuer shall
promptly (and in any event prior to the issuance (or Modification) of such
Facility LC) notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall
promptly notify each Lender, of the contents thereof and of the amount of such
Lender's participation in such proposed Facility LC, which notices to and by the
Administrative Agent may be given by fax or e-mail. The issuance or Modification
by an LC Issuer of any Facility LC shall, in addition to the conditions
precedent set forth in Section 5 (the satisfaction of which the LC Issuer shall
have no duty to ascertain), be subject to the conditions precedent that (a) the
LC Issuer shall have received confirmation (which may be given by fax or e-mail)
from the Administrative Agent that the issuance (or Modification) of such
Facility LC is in compliance with the limitations set forth in Sections
2.1(a)(i) and 4.1, (b) such Facility LC shall be satisfactory to such LC Issuer,
(c) the Borrower shall have executed and delivered such application agreement
and/or such other instruments and agreements relating to such Facility LC as
such LC Issuer shall have reasonably requested (each, a "Facility LC
Application") and (d) the LC Issuer shall not have received a written notice
from the Administrative Agent that any of the conditions precedent set forth in
Section 5.2 has not been satisfied. In the event of any conflict between the
terms of this Agreement and the terms of any Facility LC Application, the terms
of this Agreement shall control.

      4.4   FEES; REPORTING.

            (a) Facility LC Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative
      Agent, solely for the account of the Lenders, a fee (the "Facility LC
      Fee") with respect to each Facility LC for the period from the Issuance
      Date thereof (or, in the case of the Existing Letters of Credit, the
      Effective Date) to and including the final expiration date thereof, in a
      per annum amount equal to the product, calculated on a daily basis for
      each day during such period, of (A) the undrawn amount of such Facility LC
      for such day multiplied by (B) the Facility LC Fee Rate for such day, less
      0.125% per annum. The Facility LC Fees shall be due and payable quarterly
      in arrears not later than the day ("Quarterly Payment Date") that is five
      (5) Business Days following Administrative Agent's delivery to Borrower of
      the quarterly statement of Facility LC Fees and, to the extent any such
      fees are then due and unpaid, on the Maturity Date. The Administrative
      Agent shall promptly remit such Facility LC Fees, when received by the
      Administrative Agent, to the Lenders (including the LC Issuers) in
      accordance with their Pro Rata Shares thereof. The Facility LC Fees, once
      paid, shall not be refundable for any reason.

            (b) Fronting Fee. The Borrower shall also pay to the Administrative
      Agent, solely for the account of each LC Issuer, as a Fronting Fee
      ("Fronting Fee"), with respect to each Facility LC issued by such LC
      Issuer for the period from the Issuance Date thereof (or, in the case of
      the Existing Letters of Credit, the Effective Date) to and including the
      final expiration date thereof, in an amount equal to the product,
      calculated on a daily basis for each day during such period, of (x) the
      undrawn amount of such Facility LC for such day multiplied by (y) 0.125%
      per annum. The Fronting Fees shall also be due and payable quarterly in
      arrears on the date on which Facility LC Fees are payable and, to the
      extent any Fronting Fees are then due and unpaid, on the Maturity Date.
      The Administrative Agent shall promptly remit such Fronting Fee, when
      received by the Administrative Agent, to the applicable LC Issuer. The
      Fronting Fees, once paid,

                                       45
<PAGE>

      shall not be refundable for any reason. The Borrower shall also pay to the
      LC Issuer for its own account documentary and processing charges in
      connection with the issuance or Modification of and draws under Facility
      LCs in accordance with the LC Issuer's standard schedule for such charges
      as in effect from time to time.

            (c) LC Issuer Reports; Quarterly Statements. Each LC Issuer shall,
      no later than the third (3rd) Business Day following the last day of each
      month, provide to the Administrative Agent a schedule of the Facility LCs
      issued by it, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
      Administrative Agent, showing the Issuance Date, account party, original
      face amount (if any) paid thereunder, expiration date and the reference
      number of each Facility LC outstanding at any time during such month (and
      whether such Facility LC is a performance Letter of Credit or financial
      Letter of Credit) and the aggregate amount (if any) payable by the
      Borrower to such LC Issuer during the month pursuant to Sections 3.9 and
      3.12 . Copies of such reports shall be provided promptly to each Lender
      and the Borrower by the Administrative Agent. The reporting requirements
      hereunder are in addition to those set forth in Section 4.3. The
      Administrative Agent shall, with reasonable promptness following receipt
      from all LC Issuers of the reports provided for in this Section 4.4(c) for
      the months of March, June, September and December, respectively, deliver
      to the Borrower a quarterly statement of the Facility LC Fees and Fronting
      Fees then due and payable.

      4.5   ADMINISTRATION; REIMBURSEMENT BY LENDERS.

      Upon receipt by an LC Issuer from the beneficiary of any Facility LC of
any demand for payment under a Facility LC issued by such LC Issuer, such LC
Issuer shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall
promptly notify the Borrower and each other Lender as to the amount to be paid
by the LC Issuer as a result of such demand and the proposed payment date (the
"LC Payment Date"). The responsibility of the LC Issuer to the Borrower and each
Lender shall be only to determine that the documents (including each demand for
payment) delivered under each Facility LC in connection with such presentment
shall be in conformity in all material respects with such Facility LC. An LC
Issuer shall endeavor to exercise the same care in the issuance and
administration of the Facility LCs as it does with respect to Letters of Credit
in which no participations are granted, it being understood that in the absence
of any gross negligence or willful misconduct by an LC Issuer, each Lender shall
be unconditionally and irrevocably liable without regard to the occurrence of
any Default or any condition precedent whatsoever, to reimburse such LC Issuer
on demand for (i) such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the amount of each payment
made by such LC Issuer under each Facility LC to the extent such amount is not
reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to Section 4.6 below, plus (ii) interest on
the foregoing amount to be reimbursed by such Lender, for each day from the date
of such LC Issuer's demand for such reimbursement (or, if such demand is made
after 11:00 a.m. on such date, from the next succeeding Business Day) to the
date on which such Lender pays the amount to be reimbursed by it, at a rate of
interest per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate for the first three
days and, thereafter, at a rate of interest equal to the rate applicable to
Floating Rate Advances.

      4.6   REIMBURSEMENT BY BORROWER.

                                       46
<PAGE>

      The Borrower shall be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to
reimburse the LC Issuer on or before the applicable LC Payment Date for any
Reimbursement Obligations in respect of any Facility LC upon any drawing under
such Facility LC, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of
any kind; provided that neither the Borrower nor any Lender shall hereby be
precluded from asserting any claim for direct (but not consequential) damages
suffered by the Borrower or such Lender to the extent, but only to the extent,
caused by (i) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the LC Issuer in
determining whether a request presented under any Facility LC issued by it
complied with the terms of such Facility LC or (ii) the LC Issuer's failure to
pay under any Facility LC issued by it after the presentation to it of a request
strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Facility LC. Each LC
Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent of its receipt of any draft received with respect to any
Facility LC issued by such LC Issuer, but the failure to give (or any delay in
giving) such notice shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder.
All Reimbursement Obligations remaining unpaid by the Borrower after notice
thereof has been given to the Borrower shall bear interest, payable on demand,
for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to (x) the rate applicable to
Floating Rate Advances for such day if such day falls on or before the
applicable LC Payment Date and (y) a per annum rate equal to two percent (2%)
plus the Floating Rate for such day if such day falls after such LC Payment
Date. Each LC Issuer will pay to the Administrative Agent, for payment to each
Lender ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, all amounts received by it
from the Borrower for application in payment, in whole or in part, of the
Reimbursement Obligation in respect of any Facility LC issued by such LC Issuer,
but only to the extent such Lender has made payment to the Administrative Agent
for payment to the LC Issuer in respect of such Facility LC pursuant to Section
4.5. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including without
limitation the submission of a Borrowing Notice in compliance with Section
2.1(b) and the satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in
Section 5), the Borrower may request a Loan hereunder for the purpose of
satisfying any Reimbursement Obligation.

      4.7   OBLIGATIONS ABSOLUTE.

      The Borrower's obligations under this Section 4 shall be absolute and
unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff,
counterclaim or defense to payment which the Borrower may have or have had
against any LC Issuer, any Lender or any beneficiary of a Facility LC. The
Borrower further agrees with each LC Issuer and the Lenders that the LC Issuer
and the Lenders shall not be responsible for, and the Borrower's Reimbursement
Obligation in respect of any Facility LC shall not be affected by, among other
things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon,
even if such documents should in fact prove to be in any or all respects
invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Borrower, any
of its Affiliates, the beneficiary of any Facility LC or any financing
institution or other party to whom any Facility LC may be transferred or any
claims or defenses whatsoever of the Borrower or of any of its Affiliates
against the beneficiary of any Facility LC or any such transferee. The LC Issuer
shall not be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in
transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however
transmitted, in connection with any Facility LC. The Borrower agrees that any

each Facility LC and

<PAGE>

the related drafts and documents, if done without gross negligence or willful
misconduct, shall be binding upon the Borrower and shall not put any LC Issuer
or Lender under any liability to the Borrower. Nothing in this Section 4.7 is
intended to limit the right of the Borrower to make a claim against an LC Issuer
for damages as contemplated by the proviso to the first sentence of Section 4.6.

      4.8   ACTIONS OF LC ISSUER.

      Each LC Issuer shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in
relying, upon any Facility LC, draft, writing, resolution, notice, consent,
certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype
message, statement, order or other document believed by it to be genuine and
correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons,
and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and
other experts selected by such LC Issuer. Each LC Issuer shall be fully
justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement unless
it shall first have received such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders
as it reasonably deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its
reasonable satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense
which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such
action. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4, each LC Issuer
shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting,
under this Agreement in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, and
such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be
binding upon the Lenders and any future holders of a participation in any
Facility LC.

      4.9   INDEMNIFICATION.

      The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender and
LC Issuer and the Administrative Agent, and their respective directors,
officers, agents and employees from and against any and all claims and damages,
losses, liabilities, costs or expenses which such Lender, LC Issuer or the
Administrative Agent may incur (or which may be claimed against such Lender, LC
Issuer or the Administrative Agent by any Person whatsoever) by reason of or in
connection with the issuance, execution and delivery or transfer of or payment
or failure to pay under any Facility LC or any actual or proposed use of any
Facility LC, including, without limitation, any claims, damages, losses,
liabilities, costs or expenses which an LC Issuer may incur by reason of or on
account of such LC Issuer issuing any Facility LC which specifies that the term
"Beneficiary" included therein includes any successor by operation of law of the
named Beneficiary, but which Facility LC does not require that any drawing by
any such successor Beneficiary be accompanied by a copy of a legal document,
satisfactory to such LC Issuer, evidencing the appointment of such successor
Beneficiary; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to indemnify any
Lender, LC Issuer or the Administrative Agent for any claims, damages, losses,
liabilities, costs or expenses to the extent, but only to the extent, caused by
(x) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of an LC Issuer in determining
whether a request presented under any Facility LC complied with the terms of
such Facility LC or (y) an LC Issuer's failure to pay under any Facility LC
after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and
conditions of such Facility LC. Nothing in this Section 4.9 is intended to limit
the obligations of the Borrower under any other provision of this Agreement.

                                       48

      4.10  LENDERS' INDEMNIFICATION.

      Each Lender shall, ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share,
indemnify each LC Issuer, its affiliates and their respective directors,
officers, agents and employees (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower)
against any cost, expense (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements),
claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from such
indemnitees' gross negligence or willful misconduct or such LC Issuer's failure
to pay under any Facility LC after the presentation to it of a request strictly
complying with the terms and conditions of the Facility LC) that such
indemnitees may suffer or incur in connection with this Section 4 or any action
taken or omitted by such indemnitees hereunder.

      4.11  FACILITY LC COLLATERAL ACCOUNT.

      The Borrower agrees that it will, upon the request of the Administrative
Agent or the Required Lenders and until the final expiration date of any
Facility LC and thereafter as long as any amount is payable to any LC Issuer or
Lender in respect of any Facility LC, maintain a special collateral account
pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent
(the "Facility LC Collateral Account") at the Administrative Agent's office at
the address specified in or pursuant to Section 11.1, in the name of the
Borrower but under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent,
for the benefit of the Lenders and in which Borrower shall have no interest
other than as set forth in Section 9.3. The Borrower hereby pledges, assigns and
grants to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of and for the ratable benefit of
the Lenders and LC Issuers, a security interest in all of the Borrower's right,
title and interest in and to all funds which may from time to time be on deposit
in the Facility LC Collateral Account to secure the prompt and complete payment
and performance of the Credit Party Obligations. The Administrative Agent will
invest any funds on deposit from time to time in the Facility LC Collateral
Account in certificates of deposit of the Administrative Agent having a maturity
not exceeding 30 days. Nothing in this Section 4.11 shall obligate the
Administrative Agent to require the Borrower to deposit any funds in the
Facility LC Collateral Account or limit the right of the Administrative Agent to
release any funds held in the Facility LC Collateral Account or obligate the
Borrower to deposit any funds in the Facility LC Collateral Account, in each
case other than as required by Section 2.5(a)(v)(B), 9.2, 9.3 or 9.4 (as
applicable).

      4.12  RIGHTS AS A LENDER.

      In its capacity as a Lender, each LC Issuer shall have the same rights and
obligations as any other Lender.

      5500 series), as well as all schedules and attachments thereto required to

            concern or during the existence of an Event of Default, and upon the
            written request of the Administrative Agent, the Credit Parties will
            furnish or cause to be furnished to the Administrative Agent, at the
            Credit Parties' expense, a report of an environmental assessment of
            reasonable scope, form and depth, including, where appropriate,
            invasive soil or groundwater sampling, by a consultant reasonably
            acceptable to the Administrative Agent addressing the subject of
            such notice or, if during the existence of an Event of Default,
            regarding any release or threat of release of Hazardous Materials on
            any Real Property and the compliance by the Credit Parties with
            Environmental Laws. If the Credit Parties fail to deliver such an
            environmental assessment within sixty (60) days after receipt of
            such written request, then the Administrative Agent may arrange for
            same, and the Credit Parties hereby grant to the Administrative
            Agent and its representatives access to the Real Properties and a
            license of a scope reasonably necessary to undertake such an
            assessment (including, where appropriate, invasive soil or
            groundwater sampling). The reasonable cost of any assessment
            arranged for

                                       64

                  (ii) Each Credit Party will conduct and complete all
            investigations, studies, sampling and testing and all remedial,
            removal and other actions necessary to address all Hazardous
            Materials on, from, or affecting any Real Property to the extent
            necessary to be in compliance with all Environmental Laws and all
            other applicable federal, state, and local laws, regulations, rules
            and policies and with the orders and directives of all Governmental
            Authorities exercising jurisdiction over such Real Property to the
            extent any failure would have or could be reasonably expected to
            have a Material Adverse Effect.

            (h) Other Information. As soon as available and in any event within
      60 days of each fiscal quarter (or within 120 days of the fourth fiscal
      quarter), a "Land Report" and a "Consolidated Sales and Construction
      Activity Report" and with reasonable promptness upon any request, such

      $2,600,000,000, plus (ii) 50% of the cumulative Net Income of the Borrower
      and its Subsidiaries (without deduction for losses) earned for each
      completed fiscal quarter subsequent to June 30, 2004 to the date of
      determination.

things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its (a)

supplies) which, if unpaid, might give rise to a Lien upon any of its
properties, and (c) all of its other Indebtedness as it shall become due (to the
extent such repayment is not otherwise prohibited by this Credit Agreement);
provided, however, that a Credit Party shall not be required to pay any such
tax, assessment, charge, levy, claim or Indebtedness which is being contested in
good faith by appropriate proceedings and as to which adequate reserves therefor
have been established in accordance with GAAP, unless the failure to make any
such payment (i) would give rise to an immediate right to foreclose or collect
on a Lien securing such amounts or (ii) would have or could be reasonably
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

      7.7   INSURANCE.

      Each of the Credit Parties will at all times maintain in full force and
effect insurance (including worker's compensation insurance, liability

      Each of the Credit Parties will perform in all material respects all of
its obligations under the terms of all material agreements, indentures,
mortgages, security agreements or other debt instruments to which it is a party
or by which it or its property is bound, unless the failure to do so would not
have or could not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

      7.10  USE OF PROCEEDS.

      The Credit Parties will use the proceeds/availability of the Loans solely
to provide working capital for the Credit Parties and for general corporate
purposes of the Credit Parties.

request, including, without limitation, certified copies of resolutions and
other corporate, limited liability company or partnership documents and

and the Lenders agree that upon any Subsidiary (other than a REIT) ceasing to be
a Material Subsidiary, upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of evidence
thereof, the Administrative Agent shall, upon the Borrower's written request,
execute, at the Borrower's expense, such release documentation as is necessary
to release such Subsidiary from its Guaranty Obligations hereunder and such
Subsidiary shall no longer be a Guarantor.

      7.13  REIT REQUIREMENTS.

      full force and effect or any Credit Party shall so assert or any Credit
      Document shall fail to give the Administrative Agent and the Lenders the
      security interests, liens, rights, powers and privileges purported to be
      created thereby.

            (e) Guaranties. Any Guaranty or any provision thereof shall cease to
      be in full force and effect, or any Guarantor thereunder or any Person
      acting by or on behalf of such Guarantor shall deny or disaffirm such
      Guarantor's obligations under such Guaranty.

            (f) Bankruptcy, etc. The occurrence of any of the following: (i) a
      court or governmental agency having jurisdiction shall enter a decree or

      or (iv) any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries shall admit in writing
      its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due or any action

                  (i) A Credit Party shall default in the due performance or
            observance (beyond the applicable grace period with respect thereto)
            of any material obligation or condition of any contract or lease
            material to the Credit Parties taken as a whole to which it is a

            Non-Recourse Land Financing), (A) any such Credit Party shall (x)
            default in any payment (beyond the applicable grace period with
            respect thereto, if any) with respect to any such Indebtedness, or
            (y) default (after giving effect to any applicable grace period) in

            contained in any instrument or agreement evidencing, securing or
            relating thereto, or any other event or condition shall occur or
            condition exist, the effect of which default or other event or
            condition is to cause the holder or holders of such Indebtedness (or
            trustee or agent on behalf of such holders) to cause (determined
            without regard to whether any notice or lapse of time is required)

            (B) any such Indebtedness shall be declared due and payable, or

      disclosed pursuant to the Credit Documents) shall be entered against any

      more (to the extent not paid or covered by insurance provided by a carrier
      who has acknowledged coverage and in any event not including any
      Non-Recourse Land Financing), and such judgment, order or decree (i) is
      the subject of any enforcement proceeding commenced by any creditor or

      of (A) the last day on which such judgment, order or decree becomes final

      defined in Section 302 of ERISA and Section 412 of the Code, whether or
      not waived, shall exist with respect to any Plan, or any Lien shall arise
      on the assets of any Credit Party, any of its Subsidiaries or any ERISA
      Affiliate in favor of the PBGC or a Plan; (B) a Termination Event shall
      occur with respect to a Single Employer Plan, which is, in the reasonable

      shall occur with respect to a Multiemployer Plan or Multiple Employer

      IV of ERISA, or (ii) any Credit Party, any of its Subsidiaries or any
      ERISA Affiliate incurring any liability in connection with a withdrawal
      from, reorganization of (within the meaning of Section 4241 of ERISA), or

      (D) any prohibited transaction (within the meaning of Section 406 of ERISA
      or Section 4975 of the Code) or breach of fiduciary responsibility shall

      ERISA Affiliate to any liability under Sections 406, 409, 502(i), or
      502(l) of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, or under any agreement or

            (j) Ownership. There shall occur a Change of Control.

      9.2   ACCELERATION; REMEDIES.

      Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and
at any time thereafter unless and until such Event of Default has been waived in
writing by the Required Lenders (or the Lenders as may be required hereunder),
the Administrative Agent shall, upon the request and direction of the Required
Lenders, by written notice to the Borrower, take the following actions without
prejudice to the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender or LC Issuer
to enforce its claims against the Credit Parties, except as otherwise
specifically provided for herein:

            (a) Termination of Commitments. Declare the Commitments terminated
      whereupon the Commitments and the obligation and power of the LC Issuers
      to issue Facility LCs shall be immediately terminated.

            (b) Acceleration of Loans. Declare the unpaid principal of and any
      accrued interest in respect of all Loans and any and all other
      indebtedness or obligations of any and every kind owing by a Credit Party
      to any of the Lenders hereunder to be due whereupon the same shall be
      immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other
      notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower.

                                       75
<PAGE>

            (c) Facility LC Collateral Account. Demand that the Borrower pay,
      and the Borrower shall be and become thereby unconditionally obligated to
      pay, to the Administrative Agent an amount in immediately available funds,
      which funds shall be held in the Facility LC Collateral Account, equal to
      the difference of (x) the amount of LC Obligations at such time, less (y)
      the amount (if any) on deposit in the LC Collateral Account at such time
      which is free and clear of all rights and claims of third parties and has
      not been applied against the Credit Party Obligations (such difference,
      the "Collateral Shortfall Amount").

            (d) Enforcement of Rights. Enforce any and all rights and interests
      created and existing under the Credit Documents, including, without
      limitation, all rights and remedies against a Guarantor and all rights of
      set-off.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default specified in Section
9.1(f) shall occur, then (i) the Commitments and the obligation and power of the
LC Issuers to issue Facility LCs shall automatically terminate, (ii) all Loans,
all accrued interest in respect thereof, all accrued and unpaid fees and other
Credit Party Obligations shall immediately become due and payable and (iii) the
Borrower will also forthwith, and without any notice or act, pay to the
Administrative Agent the Collateral Shortfall Amount, which funds shall be
deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account, all without the giving of any
notice or other action by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, which notice
or other action is expressly waived by the Borrower.

Notwithstanding the fact that enforcement powers reside primarily with the
Administrative Agent, each Lender has, to the extent permitted by law, a
separate right of payment and shall be considered a separate "creditor" holding
a separate "claim" within the meaning of Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code
or any other insolvency statute.

      9.3   FACILITY LC COLLATERAL ACCOUNT.

            (a) If at any time while any Event of Default is continuing, the
      Administrative Agent determines that the Collateral Shortfall Amount at
      such time is greater than zero, the Administrative Agent may, and at the
      direction of the Required Lenders shall, make demand on the Borrower to
      pay, and the Borrower will, forthwith upon such demand and without any
      further notice or act, pay to the Administrative Agent the Collateral
      Shortfall Amount, which funds shall be deposited in the Facility LC
      Collateral Account.

            (b) Subject to the provision of subsection (e) of this Section 9.3
      the Administrative Agent may, at any time or from time to time after funds
      are deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account, apply such funds to
      the payment of the Credit Party Obligations and any other amounts as shall
      from time to time have become due and payable by the Borrower to the
      Lenders or LC Issuers under the Credit Documents.

            (c) At any time while any Event of Default is continuing, neither
      the Borrower nor any Person claiming on behalf of or through the Borrower
      shall have any right to withdraw any of the funds held in the Facility LC
      Collateral Account. After all of the Credit Party Obligations have been
      indefeasibly paid in full and the Commitments

                                       76
<PAGE>

      have been terminated and no Facility LCs remain outstanding, any funds
      remaining in the Facility LC Collateral Account shall be returned by the
      Administrative Agent to the Borrower or paid to whomever may be legally
      entitled thereto at such time.

            (d) Subject to the provision of subsection (e) of this Section 9.3
      if at any time at which funds are being held in the Facility LC Collateral
      Account there exists no Event of Default, or the Required Lenders (or the
      Lenders as may be required hereunder) have waived in writing any such
      Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall, upon written request of
      the Borrower, return such funds to the Borrower.

            (e) As long as no Event of Default has occurred that is continuing
      funds deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account pursuant to Section
      2.5(a)(v) may be applied by the Administrative Agent solely to the
      Reimbursement Obligations and shall be returned to the Borrower upon the
      Borrower's request from time to time to the extent that such funds exceed
      the amount by which the LC Obligations exceed the Revolving Committed
      Amount.

      9.4   ALLOCATION OF PAYMENTS AFTER EVENT OF DEFAULT.

      Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Credit Agreement, after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all amounts
collected or received by the Administrative Agent or any Lender on account of
amounts outstanding under any of the Credit Documents shall be paid over or
delivered as follows:

            FIRST, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and
      expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees) of the
      Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders or LC Issuers in connection
      with enforcing the rights of the Lenders or LC Issuers under the Credit
      Documents;

            SECOND, to payment of any fees owed to the Administrative Agent or
      any Lender or LC Issuer;

            THIRD, to the payment of all accrued interest payable to the Lenders
      hereunder and all other obligations (other than those obligations to be
      paid pursuant to clause "FOURTH" or clause "FIFTH" below) which shall have
      become due and payable under the Credit Documents and not repaid pursuant
      to clauses "FIRST" and "SECOND" above;

            FOURTH, to the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the
      Loans and Reimbursement Obligations, pro rata as set forth below;

            FIFTH, to the Administrative Agent for deposit in the Facility LC
      Collateral Account to the extent of any Collateral Shortfall Amount; and

            SIXTH, to the payment of the surplus, if any, to whomever may be
      lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

                                       77
<PAGE>

In carrying out the foregoing, (a) amounts received shall be applied in the
numerical order provided until exhausted prior to application to the next
succeeding category and (b) each of the Lenders shall receive an amount equal to
its pro rata share (based on the proportion that the then outstanding Loans held
by such Lender bears to the aggregate then outstanding Loans) of amounts
available to be applied.

                                   SECTION 10

                                AGENCY PROVISIONS

      10.1  APPOINTMENT; NATURE OF RELATIONSHIP.

      Bank One is hereby appointed by each of the Lenders as its contractual
representative (herein referred to as the "Administrative Agent") hereunder and
under each other Credit Document, and each of the Lenders irrevocably authorizes
the Administrative Agent to act as the contractual representative of such Lender
with the rights and duties expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit
Documents. The Administrative Agent agrees to act as such contractual
representative upon the express conditions contained in this Section 10.
Notwithstanding the use of the defined term "Administrative Agent," it is
expressly understood and agreed that the Administrative Agent shall not have any
fiduciary responsibilities to any Lender by reason of this Agreement or any
other Credit Document and that the Administrative Agent is merely acting as the
contractual representative of the Lenders with only those duties as are
expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. In its
capacity as the Lenders' contractual representative, the Agent (i) does not
hereby assume any fiduciary duties to any of the Lenders, (ii) is a
"representative" of the Lenders within the meaning of the term "secured party"
as defined in the Illinois Uniform Commercial Code and (iii) is acting as an
independent contractor, the rights and duties of which are limited to those
expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. Each of
the Lenders hereby agrees to assert no claim against the Administrative Agent on
any agency theory or any other theory of liability for breach of fiduciary duty,
all of which claims each Lender hereby waives.

      10.2  POWERS.

      The Administrative Agent shall have and may exercise such powers under the
Credit Documents as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent by
the terms of each thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably
incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent shall have no implied duties to the
Lenders, or any obligation to the Lenders to take any action thereunder except
any action specifically provided by the Credit Documents to be taken by the
Administrative Agent.

      10.3  GENERAL IMMUNITY.

      Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers,
agents or employees shall be liable to the Borrower, the Lenders or any Lender
or LC Issuer for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it or
them hereunder or under any other Credit Document or

                                       78
<PAGE>

in connection herewith or therewith except to the extent such action or inaction
is determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent
jurisdiction to have arisen from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
such Person or from breach of such Person's express obligations under this
Agreement.

      10.4  NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR LOANS, RECITALS, ETC.

      Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers,
agents or employees shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain,
inquire into, or verify (a) any statement, warranty or representation made in
connection with any Credit Document or any borrowing hereunder; (b) the
performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of any obligor
under any Credit Document, including, without limitation, any agreement by an
obligor to furnish information directly to each Lender; (c) the satisfaction of
any condition specified in Section 5, except receipt of items required to be
delivered solely to the Administrative Agent; (d) the existence or possible
existence of any Event of Default or Default (other than an Event of Default
under Section 9.1(a)); (e) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness,
sufficiency or genuineness of any Credit Document or any other instrument or
writing furnished in connection therewith; (f) the value, sufficiency, creation,
perfection or priority of any Lien in any collateral security; or (g) the
financial condition of the Borrower or any Guarantor or of any of the Borrower's
or any such Guarantor's respective Subsidiaries. The Administrative Agent shall
promptly provide the Lenders with copies of all notices of Default sent pursuant
to this Agreement, any written notice relating to changes in the Borrower's debt
ratings that affect the Senior Debt Rating received from the Borrower or a
ratings agency, any documents received by the Administrative Agent pursuant to
Section 7.1 (except to the extent that the Borrower has furnished the same
directly to the Lenders) and any other document or notice received by the
Administrative Agent with respect to this Agreement and requested in writing by
any Lender. The Administrative Agent shall have no duty to disclose to the
Lenders information that is not required to be furnished by the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent at such time, but is voluntarily furnished by the Borrower
to the Administrative Agent (either in its capacity as Administrative Agent or
in its individual capacity).

      10.5  ACTION ON INSTRUCTIONS OF LENDERS.

      The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting,
or in refraining from acting, hereunder and under any other Credit Document in
accordance with written instructions signed by the Required Lenders, and such
instructions and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be
binding on all of the Lenders. The Lenders hereby acknowledge that the
Administrative Agent shall be under no duty to take any discretionary action
permitted to be taken by it pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or any
other Credit Document unless it shall be requested in writing to do so by the
Required Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing
or refusing to take any action hereunder and under any other Credit Document
unless it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders pro rata
against any and all liability, cost and expense that it may incur by reason of
taking or continuing to take any such action.

                                       79

      The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties as Administrative
Agent hereunder and under any other Credit Document by or through employees,
agents, and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be answerable to the Lenders, except
as to money or securities received by it or its authorized agents, for the
default or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it
with reasonable care. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to advice of
counsel concerning the contractual arrangement between the Administrative Agent
and the Lenders and all matters pertaining to the Administrative Agent's duties
hereunder and under any other Credit Document.

      10.7  RELIANCE ON DOCUMENTS; COUNSEL.

      The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any Note, notice,
consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, statement, paper or document
believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the
proper person or persons, and, in respect to legal matters, upon the opinion of
counsel selected by the Administrative Agent, which counsel may be employees of
the Administrative Agent.

      10.8  ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT'S REIMBURSEMENT AND INDEMNIFICATION.

      The Lenders agree to reimburse and indemnify the Administrative Agent
ratably in proportion of their respective Pro Rata Shares (i) for any amounts
not reimbursed by the Borrower for which the Administrative Agent is entitled to
reimbursement by the Borrower under the Credit Documents, (ii) for any other
expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders, in
connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration and
enforcement of the Credit Documents (including, without limitation, for any
expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with any dispute
between the Administrative Agent and any Lender or between two or more of the
Lenders) and (iii) for any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and
nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the
Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Credit
Documents or any other document delivered in connection therewith or the
transactions contemplated thereby (including, without limitation, for any such
amounts incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in connection
with any dispute between the Administrative Agent and any Lender or between two
or more of the Lenders), or the enforcement of any of the terms of the Credit
Documents or of any such other documents, provided that (i) no Lender shall be
liable for any of the foregoing to the extent any of the foregoing is found in a
final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have
resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative
Agent and (ii) any indemnification required pursuant to Section 3.13(b)(iv)
shall, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10.8, be paid by the
relevant Lender in accordance with the provisions thereof. The obligations of
the Lenders under this Section 10.8 shall survive payment of the Obligations and
termination of this Agreement.

                                       80
<PAGE>

      10.9  NOTICE OF DEFAULT.

      The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice
of the occurrence of any Event of Default or Default hereunder (other than an
Event of Default under Section 9.1(a)) unless the Administrative Agent has
received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this
Agreement describing such Event of Default or Default and stating that such
notice is a "notice of default." In the event that the Administrative Agent
receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice
thereof to the Lenders.

      10.10 RIGHTS AS A LENDER.

      In the event the Administrative Agent is a Lender, the Administrative
Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder and under any other Credit
Document with respect to its Commitments and its Loans as any Lender and may
exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the term
"Lender" or "Lenders" shall, at any time when the Administrative Agent is a
Lender, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent
in its individual capacity. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may
accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of trust,
debt, equity or other transaction, in addition to those contemplated by this
Agreement or any other Credit Document, with the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries in which the Borrower or such Subsidiary is not restricted hereby
from engaging with any other Person.

      10.11 LENDER CREDIT DECISION.

      Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance
upon the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or any other Lender and based on the
financial statements prepared by the Borrower and such other documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and
decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. Each
Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon
the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or any other Lender and based on such
documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to
make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this
Agreement and the other Credit Documents.

      10.12 SUCCESSOR ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.

      The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice
thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower, such resignation to be effective upon
the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent or, if no successor
Administrative Agent has been appointed, sixty (60) days after the retiring
Administrative Agent gives notice of its intention to resign. The Administrative
Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by written notice
received by the Administrative Agent from the Required Lenders, such removal to
be effective on the date specified by the Required Lenders, provided that, as
long as no Event of Default has occurred that is continuing, such removal shall
be subject to the approval of the Borrower, not to be unreasonably withheld or
delayed. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall have
the right to appoint, on behalf of the Borrower and the Lenders, a successor
Administrative Agent, provided that, as long as no Event of Default has occurred
that is continuing, the appointment of such successor Administrative Agent shall
be subject to the approval of the Borrower, not to be unreasonably withheld or
delayed. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by
the Required Lenders within sixty (60) days after the resigning Administrative
Agent's giving notice of its intention to resign, then the resigning
Administrative Agent may appoint, on behalf of the Borrower and the Lenders, a
successor Administrative Agent, provided that, as long as no Event of Default
has occurred that is continuing, the appointment of such successor
Administrative Agent shall be subject to the

                                       81
<PAGE>

approval of the Borrower, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
Notwithstanding the previous sentence, the Administrative Agent may at any time
without the consent of the Borrower or any Lender, appoint any of its Affiliates
which is a commercial bank as a successor Administrative Agent hereunder. If the
Administrative Agent has resigned or been removed and no successor
Administrative Agent has been appointed, the Lenders may perform all the duties
of the Administrative Agent hereunder and the Borrower shall make all payments
in respect of the Obligations to the applicable Lender and for all other
purposes shall deal directly with the Lenders. No successor Administrative Agent
shall be deemed to be appointed hereunder until such successor Administrative
Agent has accepted the appointment. Any such successor Administrative Agent
shall be a commercial bank having capital and retained earnings of at least
$100,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent
hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative
Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers,
privileges and duties of the resigning or removed Administrative Agent. Upon the
effectiveness of the resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent, the
resigning or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties
and obligations hereunder and under the Credit Documents. After the
effectiveness of the resignation or removal of an Administrative Agent, the
provisions of this Section 10 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such
Administrative Agent in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by
it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other
Credit Documents. In the event that there is a successor to the Administrative
Agent by merger, or the Administrative Agent assigns its duties and obligations
to an Affiliate pursuant to this Section 10.12, then the term "Prime Rate" as
used in this Agreement shall mean the prime rate, base rate or other analogous
rate of the new Administrative Agent.

      10.13 ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND ARRANGER FEES.

      The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent and the Arranger,
for their respective accounts, the fees agreed to by the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent and the Arranger pursuant to the Fee Letter or as otherwise
agreed from time to time.

      10.14 DELEGATION TO AFFILIATES.

      The Borrower and the Lenders agree that the Administrative Agent may
delegate any of its duties under this Agreement to any of its Affiliates. Any
such Affiliate (and such Affiliate's directors, officers, agents and employees)
which performs duties in connection with this Agreement shall be entitled to the
same benefits of the indemnification, waiver and other protective provisions to
which the Administrative Agent is entitled under Sections 10 and 11.

      10.15 AUTHORIZATION OF INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT.

      Each of the Lenders hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to enter
into the Intercreditor Agreement on their behalf and to carry out the
responsibilities and exercise the powers afforded the Administrative Agent
therein.

      10.16 DOCUMENTATION AGENT, SYNDICATION AGENT, ETC.

      None of the Lenders identified in this Agreement as a Co-Agent,
Documentation Agent, Managing Agent or Syndication Agent shall have any right,
power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other
than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing,
none of such Lenders shall have or be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship
with any Lender. Each Lender hereby makes the same acknowledgments with respect
to such Lenders as it makes with respect to the Administrative Agent in Section
10.11.

      10.17 BENEFITS OF SECTION 10.

      None of the provisions of this Section 10 shall inure to the benefit of
the Borrower or of any Person other than Administrative Agent and each of the
Lenders and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Accordingly,
neither the Borrower nor any Person other than Administrative Agent and the
Lenders (and their respective successors and permitted assigns) shall be
entitled to rely upon, or to raise as a defense, the failure of the
Administrative Agent or any Lenders to comply with the provisions of this
Section 10.

                                   SECTION 11

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

      11.1  NOTICES.

      Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other
communications shall have been duly given and shall be effective (a) when
delivered in writing, (b) when transmitted via telecopy (or other facsimile
device) to the number set out below, (c) the Business Day following the day on
which the same has been delivered prepaid (or on an invoice basis) to a
reputable national overnight air courier service, or (d) the third Business Day
following the day on which the same is sent by certified or registered mail,
postage prepaid, in the case of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to the
respective address or telecopy numbers set forth on Schedule 11.1, to the
Lenders at the respective address and telecopy number set forth in the
Administrative Questionnaire delivered to the Administrative Agent or in any
case at such other address as any such party may specify by written notice to
the other parties hereto.

      11.2  RIGHT OF SET-OFF.

      In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law or
otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence
of an Event of Default and the commencement of remedies described in Section
9.2, each Lender, and each Affiliate of such Lender, is authorized at any time
and from time to time, without presentment, demand, protest or

                                       83
<PAGE>

other notice of any kind (all of which rights being hereby expressly waived), to
set-off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special)
and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender or its
Affiliates (including, without limitation, branches or agencies of such Lender
or its Affiliates wherever located) to or for the credit or the account of any
Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries against the Credit Party Obligations of
such Credit Party, irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent or the
Lenders shall have made any demand hereunder and although such Credit Party
Obligations may be contingent or unmatured, and any such set-off shall be deemed
to have been made immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default even
though such charge is made or entered on the books of such Lender subsequent
thereto. The Borrower hereby agrees that any Person purchasing a participation
in the Loans and Commitments hereunder pursuant to Section 11.3(e) or 3.8 may
exercise all rights of set-off with respect to its participation interest as
fully as if such Person were a Lender hereunder.

      11.3  BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT.

            (a) Generally. This Credit Agreement shall be binding upon and inure
      to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and
      assigns of the parties hereto; provided that none of the Credit Parties
      may assign and transfer any of its interests (except as permitted by
      Section 8.4 or 8.5) without the prior written consent of the Lenders; and
      provided further that the rights of each Lender to transfer, assign or
      grant participations in its rights and/or obligations hereunder shall be
      limited as set forth below in this Section 11.3.

            (b) Assignments. Each Lender may assign to one or more Eligible
      Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Credit
      Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Loans,
      its Notes, and its Commitments); provided, however, that:

                  (i) unless each of the Administrative Agent and (as long as no
            Event of Default exists) Borrower otherwise agrees, any such partial
            assignment shall be (A) in an amount at least equal to $5,000,000 or
            an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof or (B) in an
            amount equal to such Lender's entire remaining Commitment;

                  (ii) each such assignment by a Lender shall be of a constant,
            and not varying, percentage of all of its rights and obligations
            under this Credit Agreement and the Notes; and

                  (iii) the parties to such assignment shall execute and deliver
            to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance an assignment
            agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit 11.3(b) (each an
            "Assignment Agreement"), together with a processing fee from the
            assignor of $3,500.

      Upon execution, delivery, and acceptance of such Assignment Agreement, the
      assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of such
      assignment, have the obligations, rights, and benefits of a Lender
      hereunder and the assigning Lender shall, to

                                       84
<PAGE>

      the extent of such assignment, relinquish its rights (except its rights
      with respect to indemnification under the Credit Documents accruing prior
      to such assignment) and be released from its obligations under this Credit
      Agreement. Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this
      Section 11.3(b), the assignor, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower
      shall make appropriate arrangements so that, if required, new Notes are
      issued to the assignor and the assignee. If the assignee is not
      incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or a state
      thereof, it shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
      certification as to exemption from deduction or withholding of taxes in
      accordance with Section 3.13.

      By executing and delivering an Assignment Agreement in accordance with
      this Section 11.3(b), the assigning Lender thereunder and the assignee
      thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree with each other and the
      other parties hereto as follows: (A) such assigning Lender warrants that
      it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned
      thereby free and clear of any adverse claim and the assignee warrants that
      it is an Eligible Assignee; (B) except as set forth in clause (A) above,
      such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no
      responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or
      representations made in or in connection with this Credit Agreement, any
      of the other Credit Documents or any other instrument or document
      furnished pursuant hereto or thereto, or the execution, legality,
      validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Credit
      Agreement, any of the other Credit Documents or any other instrument or
      document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto or the financial condition
      of any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries or the performance or
      observance by any Credit Party of any of its obligations under this Credit
      Agreement, any of the other Credit Documents or any other instrument or
      document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; (C) such assignee
      represents and warrants that it is legally authorized to enter into such
      Assignment Agreement; (D) such assignee confirms that it has received a
      copy of this Credit Agreement, the other Credit Documents and such other
      documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own
      credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment Agreement; (E)
      such assignee will independently and without reliance upon the
      Administrative Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender, and based
      on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the
      time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking
      action under this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents; (F)
      such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take
      such action on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Credit
      Agreement or any other Credit Document as are delegated to the
      Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such
      powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (G) such assignee agrees
      that it will perform in accordance with their terms all the obligations
      which by the terms of this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents
      are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

            (c) Register. The Administrative Agent shall maintain a copy of each
      Assignment Agreement delivered to and accepted by it and a register for
      the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the
      Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender
      from time to time (the "Register"). The entries in the Register shall be
      conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the

                                       85
<PAGE>

      Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person
      whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all
      purposes of this Credit Agreement. The Register shall be available for
      inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from
      time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

            (d) Acceptance. Upon its receipt of an Assignment Agreement executed
      by the parties thereto, together with any Note subject to such assignment
      and payment of the processing fee, the Administrative Agent shall, if such
      Assignment Agreement has been completed and is in substantially the form
      of Exhibit 11.3(b) hereto, (i) accept such Assignment Agreement, (ii)
      record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give
      prompt notice thereof to the parties thereto.

            (e) Participations. Each Lender may sell participations to one or
      more Persons in all or a portion of its rights, obligations or rights and
      obligations under this Credit Agreement (including all or a portion of its
      Commitments and its Loans); provided, however, that (i) such Lender's
      obligations under this Credit Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such
      Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the
      performance of such obligations, (iii) the participant shall be entitled
      to the benefit of the yield protection provisions contained in Sections
      3.9 through 3.14, inclusive, and the right of set-off contained in Section
      11.2, (iv) the Borrower shall continue to deal solely and directly with
      such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under
      this Credit Agreement, and such Lender shall retain the sole right to
      enforce the obligations of the Borrower relating to its Loans and its
      Notes and to approve any amendment, modification, or waiver of any
      provision of this Credit Agreement (other than amendments, modifications,
      or waivers decreasing the amount of principal of or the rate at which
      interest is payable on such Loans or Notes, extending any scheduled
      principal payment date or date fixed for the payment of interest on such
      Loans or Notes or fees (other than Administrative Fees) (other than as a
      result of the extension of the Maturity Date in accordance with the terms
      of Section 2.5), postponing the expiry date of any Facility LC beyond the
      Maturity Date, extending its Commitments or releasing all or substantially
      all of the Guarantors) and (v) such Lender shall provide written notice of
      any participation to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

            (f) Nonrestricted Assignments. Notwithstanding any other provision
      set forth in this Credit Agreement, any Lender may at any time assign and
      pledge all or any portion of its Loans and its Notes to any Federal
      Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A and any
      Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank. No such assignment
      shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder.

            (g) Information. Any Lender may furnish any information concerning
      the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in the possession of such Lender
      from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective
      assignees and participants), subject, however, to the provisions of
      Section 11.16.

            11.4  NO WAIVER; REMEDIES CUMULATIVE.

            No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent or any
      Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any
      other Credit Document and no course of dealing between the Borrower or any
      of its Subsidiaries and the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall
      operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of
      any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document
      preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
      other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. The rights and
      remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or
      remedies which the Administrative Agent or any Lender would otherwise
      have. No notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle
      any Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or
      other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the
      Administrative Agent or the Lenders to any other or further action in any
      circumstances without notice or demand.

            11.5  PAYMENT OF EXPENSES; INDEMNIFICATION.

      with (A) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery, syndication
      and administration of this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents
      and the documents and instruments referred to therein, and (B) any
      amendment, waiver or consent relating hereto and thereto including, but
      not limited to, any such amendments, waivers or consents resulting from or
      related to any work-out, renegotiation or restructure relating to the
      performance by the Credit Parties under this Credit Agreement (including,
      without limitation, in the case of either (A) or (B) above, the reasonable
      fees and expenses of counsel to the Administrative Agent, who may or may
      not be employees of the Administrative Agent) and (ii) the Administrative
      Agent and the Lenders in connection with (A) enforcement and collection of
      the Credit Documents and the documents and instruments referred to
      therein, including, without limitation, in connection with any such
      enforcement, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the
      Administrative Agent, who may or may not be employees of the
      Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders, and (B) any bankruptcy or
      insolvency proceeding of a Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries and (b)
      indemnify the Administrative Agent, Arranger, each Lender and each of
      their officers, directors, employees, representatives, Affiliates and
      agents from and hold each of them harmless against any and all losses,
      liabilities, claims, damages or expenses (including, without limitation,
      the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel (including the allocated
      cost of internal counsel) and settlement costs incurred by any of them as

      any investigation, litigation or other proceeding (whether or not the
      Administrative Agent, Arranger or any Lender is a party thereto) related
      to (i) the entering into and/or performance of any Credit Document or the
      use of proceeds of any Loans (including other Extensions of Credit)
      hereunder or the consummation of any other transactions contemplated in
      any Credit Document, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees
      and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any such
      investigation, litigation or other proceeding, (ii) any Environmental
      Claim, (iii) any claims for Non-Excluded Taxes (but excluding in the case
      of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above, any such losses, liabilities,
      claims, damages or expenses to the extent incurred by reason of gross
      negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Person to be

      payment of any Loan or any Reimbursement Obligation;

      a waiver of any mandatory reduction in the Commitments or any increase in
      the Revolving Committed Amount pursuant to Section 2.1(e) shall not
      constitute a change in the terms of any Commitment of any Lender);

      disposition of a Credit Party permitted under Section 8.4, (i) release the

Swingline Loans may be amended or modified without the consent of the Swingline
Lender. No provision affecting an LC Issuer may be amended or modified without
its consent.

of which where so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which

representation that an original will be delivered.

      11.8  HEADINGS.

      Each Lender understands and agrees that if such Lender is a Defaulting
Lender then notwithstanding the provisions of Section 11.6 it shall not be
entitled to vote on any matter requiring the consent of the Required Lenders or
to object to any matter (other than those provided for in Section 11.6(b), (c)
and (d)) requiring the consent of all the Lenders; provided, however, that all
other benefits and obligations under the Credit Documents shall apply to such
Defaulting Lender.

construed without giving effect to the illegal, invalid or unenforceable
provisions.

      11.14 FURTHER ASSURANCES.

      Each Lender agrees to hold any confidential information which it may

disclosure (i) to its Affiliates and to other Lenders and their respective
Affiliates, who shall be advised of and directed to maintain the confidentiality

Lender (and each employee, representative or other agent of any Lender) may
disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the "tax
treatment" and "tax structure" (in each case, within the meaning of Treasury
Regulation Section 1.6011-4) of the transactions contemplated hereby and all
materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are or
have been provided to such Lender relating to such tax treatment or tax
structure; provided that with respect to any document or similar item that in
either case contains information concerning such tax treatment or tax structure

relate to such tax treatment or tax structure.

      11.17 BINDING EFFECT; CONTINUING AGREEMENT.

      the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall have received
      copies hereof (telefaxed or otherwise) which, when taken together, bear
      the signatures of each Lender, and thereafter this Credit Agreement shall
      be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the
      Administrative Agent and each Lender and their respective successors and
      assigns.

            (b) This Credit Agreement shall be a continuing agreement and shall

      Parties shall have no further obligations (other than the indemnification
      provisions that survive and any other provisions that by their terms
      survive) under the Credit Documents; provided that should any payment, in
      whole or in part, of the Credit Party Obligations be rescinded or
      otherwise required to be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent
      or any Lender, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or
      reorganization or otherwise, then the Credit Documents shall automatically
      be reinstated and all amounts required to be restored or returned and all
      costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or Lender in
      connection therewith shall be deemed included as part of the Credit Party
      Obligations.

                               SUBSIDIARY GUARANTY

      THIS SUBSIDIARY GUARANTY (this "Guaranty") is made as of September 16,
2004, by the undersigned (collectively, the "Subsidiary Guarantors") in favor of
the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, under the Credit
Agreement referred to below.

                                   WITNESSETH:

      WHEREAS, Pulte Homes, Inc., a Michigan corporation (the "Principal"), and
Bank One, NA, a national banking association having its principal office in
Chicago, Illinois, as Administrative Agent, and certain other Lenders from time
to time party thereto have entered into a certain Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement dated September 16, 2004 (as same may be amended or modified from time
to time, the "Credit Agreement"), providing, subject to the terms and conditions
thereof, for extensions of credit to be made by the Lenders to the Principal;

      WHEREAS, the Credit Agreement requires that each of the Subsidiary
Guarantors execute and deliver this Guaranty whereby each of the Subsidiary
Guarantors shall guarantee the payment when due, subject to Section 10 hereof,
of all Guaranteed Obligations, as defined below; and

      WHEREAS, in consideration of the financial and other support that the
Principal has provided, and such financial and other support as the Principal
may in the future provide, to the Subsidiary Guarantors, and because each
Subsidiary Guarantor has determined that executing this Guaranty is in its
interest and to its financial benefit, each of the Subsidiary Guarantors is
willing to guarantee the obligations of the Principal under the Credit
Agreement, any Note and the other Credit Documents;

      NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

      1. Defined Terms. "Guaranteed Obligations" is defined in Section 4 below.
Other capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein shall have the
meaning set forth in the Credit Agreement.

      2. Representations and Warranties. Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors
represents and warrants (which representations and warranties shall be deemed to
have been renewed upon each Extension of Credit under the Credit Agreement)
that:

      (a) It (i) is a corporation, partnership or limited liability company duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state (or
other jurisdiction) of its organization, (ii) is duly qualified and in good
standing as a foreign entity and authorized to do business in every

                                       1
<PAGE>

jurisdiction unless the failure to be so qualified, in good standing or
authorized would not have or could not be reasonably expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect and (iii) has the requisite power and authority to own its
properties and to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be
conducted.

      (b) It (i) has the requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and
perform this Guaranty and any other Credit Document to which it is a party and
to incur the obligations herein and therein provided for and (ii) is duly
authorized to, and has been authorized by all necessary action, to execute,
deliver and perform this Guaranty and any other Credit Document to which it is a
party.

      (c) Neither the execution and delivery of the Credit Documents, nor the
consummation of the transactions contemplated therein, nor performance of and
compliance with the terms and provisions thereof by it (i) violate or conflict
with any provision of its articles or certificate of incorporation or bylaws,
(ii) violate, contravene or materially conflict with any Requirement of Law or
any other law, regulation (including, without limitation, Regulation D, O, T, U
or X), order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree or permit applicable to it,
(iii) violate, contravene or conflict with contractual provisions of, or cause
an event of default under, any indenture, loan agreement, mortgage, deed of
trust, contract or other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by
which it may be bound, the violation of which would have or could be reasonably
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, or (iv) result in or require the
creation of any Lien (other than those contemplated in or created in connection
with the Credit Documents) upon or with respect to its properties.

      (d) Except for consents, approvals and authorizations which have been
obtained, no consent, approval, authorization or order of, or filing,
registration or qualification with, any court or Governmental Authority or third
party is required in connection with its execution, delivery or performance of
this Guaranty and any other Credit Agreement to which it is a party.

      3. Covenants. Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors covenants that, so long as
any Lender has any Commitment outstanding under the Credit Agreement or any of
the Guaranteed Obligations shall remain unpaid, that it will, and, if necessary,
will enable the Principal to, fully comply with those covenants and agreements
set forth in the Credit Agreement.

      4. The Guaranty. Subject to Section 10 hereof, each of the Subsidiary
Guarantors hereby absolutely and unconditionally guarantees, as primary obligor
and not as surety, the full and punctual payment (whether at stated maturity,
upon acceleration or early termination or otherwise, and at all times
thereafter) and performance of the Credit Party Obligations, including without
limitation any such Credit Party Obligations incurred or accrued during the
pendency of any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other similar
proceeding, whether or not allowed or allowable in such proceeding
(collectively, subject to the provisions of Section 10 hereof, being referred to
as the "Guaranteed Obligations"). Upon failure by the Principal to pay
punctually any such amount, each of the Subsidiary Guarantors agrees that it
shall forthwith on demand pay to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the
Lenders and, if applicable, their Affiliates, the amount not so paid at the
place and in the manner specified in the Credit Agreement, any Note or the
relevant Credit Document, as the case may be. This Guaranty is a guaranty of
payment and

                                       2
<PAGE>

not of collection. Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors waives any right to require
the Lenders or the Administrative Agent to sue the Principal, any other
guarantor, or any other person obligated for all or any part of the Guaranteed
Obligations, or otherwise to enforce its payment against any collateral securing
all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations.

      5. Guaranty Unconditional. Subject to Section 10 hereof, the obligations
of each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder shall be unconditional and
absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be
released, discharged or otherwise affected by:

            (a) any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or
      release in respect of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, by operation of
      law or otherwise, or any obligation of any other guarantor of any of the
      Guaranteed Obligations, or any default, failure or delay, willful or
      otherwise, in the payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations;

            (b) any modification or amendment of or supplement to the Credit
      Agreement, any Note or any other Credit Document;

            (c) any release, nonperfection or invalidity of any direct or
      indirect security for any obligation of the Principal under the Credit
      Agreement, any Note, any Collateral Document, any other Credit Document,
      or any obligations of any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed
      Obligations, or any action or failure to act by the Administrative Agent,
      any Lender or any Affiliate of any Lender with respect to any collateral
      securing all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations;

            (d) any change in the corporate or other legal existence, structure
      or ownership of the Principal or any other guarantor of any of the
      Guaranteed Obligations, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or
      other similar proceeding affecting the Principal, or any other guarantor
      of the Guaranteed Obligations, or its assets or any resulting release or
      discharge of any obligation of the Principal, or any other guarantor of
      any of the Guaranteed Obligations;

            (e) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which the
      Subsidiary Guarantors may have at any time against the Principal, any
      other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Administrative
      Agent, any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection herewith or
      any unrelated transactions;

            (f) any invalidity or unenforceability relating to any other
      guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, for any reason related to
      the Credit Agreement, any Note on any other Credit Document, or any
      provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the
      payment by any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, of the
      principal of or interest on any Note or any other amount payable under the
      Credit Agreement, any Note or any other Credit Document; or

            (g) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the
      Principal, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, the
      Administrative Agent, any Lender or

                                       3
<PAGE>

      any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever which might, but for
      the provisions of this paragraph, constitute a legal or equitable
      discharge of any Subsidiary Guarantor's obligations hereunder.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Subsidiary Guarantors do not waive defenses
to the Guaranteed Obligations that are available to the Principal, except for
such defenses as may arise by reason of any insolvency, bankruptcy,
reorganization or similar proceeding affecting the Principal.

      6. Discharge Only Upon Payment In Full: Reinstatement In Certain
Circumstances. Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors' obligations hereunder shall
remain in full force and effect until all Guaranteed Obligations shall have been
indefeasibly paid in full and the Commitments under the Credit Agreement shall
have terminated or expired. If at any time any payment of the principal of or
interest on any Note or any other amount payable by the Principal or any other
party under the Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document is rescinded or
must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or
reorganization of the Principal or otherwise, each of the Subsidiary Guarantor's
obligations hereunder with respect to such payment shall be reinstated as though
such payment had been due but not made at such time.

      7. Waivers. Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors irrevocably waives
acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement
that at any time any action be taken by any Person against the Principal, any
other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other Person.

      8. Subrogation. Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby agrees not to
assert any right, claim or cause of action, including, without limitation, a
claim for subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or otherwise, against the
Principal arising out of or by reason of this Guaranty or the obligations
hereunder, including, without limitation, the payment or securing or purchasing
of any of the Guaranteed Obligations by any of the Subsidiary Guarantors unless
and until the Guaranteed Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full, and any
commitment to lend under the Credit Agreement and any other Credit Documents is
terminated or has expired.

      9. Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any of
the Guaranteed Obligations is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or
reorganization of the Principal, all such amounts otherwise subject to
acceleration under the terms of the Credit Agreement, any Note or any other
Credit Document shall nonetheless be payable by each of the Subsidiary
Guarantors hereunder forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent made at the
request of the Required Lenders.

      10. Limitation on Obligations. The provisions of this Guaranty are
severable, and in any action or proceeding involving any state corporate law, or
any state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other
law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any
Subsidiary Guarantor under this Guaranty would otherwise be held or determined
to be avoidable, invalid or unenforceable on account of the amount of such
Subsidiary Guarantor's liability under this Guaranty, then, notwithstanding any
other provision

                                       4
<PAGE>

of this Guaranty to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without
any further action by the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Administrative Agent or any
Lender, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid
and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding (such highest amount
determined hereunder being the relevant Subsidiary Guarantor's "Maximum
Liability"). This Section 10(a) with respect to the Maximum Liability of the
Subsidiary Guarantors is intended solely to preserve the rights of the
Administrative Agent hereunder to the maximum extent not subject to avoidance
under applicable law, and neither the Subsidiary Guarantor nor any other person
or entity shall have any right or claim under this Section 10(a) with respect to
the Maximum Liability, except to the extent necessary so that the obligations of
the Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall not be rendered voidable under
applicable law.

            (a) Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors agrees that the Guaranteed
      Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the Maximum
      Liability of each Subsidiary Guarantor, and may exceed the aggregate
      Maximum Liability of all other Subsidiary Guarantors, without impairing
      this Guaranty or affecting the rights and remedies of the Administrative
      Agent hereunder. Nothing in this Section 10(b) shall be construed to
      increase any Subsidiary Guarantor's obligations hereunder beyond its
      Maximum Liability.

            (b) In the event any Subsidiary Guarantor (a "Paying Subsidiary
      Guarantor") shall make any payment or payments under this Guaranty or
      shall suffer any loss as a result of any realization upon any collateral
      granted by it to secure its obligations under this Guaranty, each other
      Subsidiary Guarantor (each a "Non-Paying Subsidiary Guarantor") shall
      contribute to such Paying Subsidiary Guarantor an amount equal to such
      Non-Paying Subsidiary Guarantor's "Pro Rata Share" of such payment or
      payments made, or losses suffered, by such Paying Subsidiary Guarantor.
      For the purposes hereof, each Non-Paying Subsidiary Guarantor's "Pro Rata
      Share" with respect to any such payment or loss by a Paying Subsidiary
      Guarantor shall be determined as of the date on which such payment or loss
      was made by reference to the ratio of (i) such Non-Paying Subsidiary
      Guarantor's Maximum Liability as of such date (without giving effect to
      any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder)
      or, if such Non-Paying Subsidiary Guarantor's Maximum Liability has not
      been determined, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such
      Non-Paying Subsidiary Guarantor from the Principal after the date hereof
      (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means) to (ii) the
      aggregate Maximum Liability of all Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder
      (including such Paying Subsidiary Guarantor) as of such date (without
      giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any
      contribution hereunder), or to the extent that a Maximum Liability has not
      been determined for any Subsidiary Guarantors, the aggregate amount of all
      monies received by such Subsidiary Guarantors from the Principal after the
      date hereof (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means). Nothing
      in this Section 10(c) shall affect any Subsidiary Guarantor's several
      liability for the entire amount of the Guaranteed Obligations (up to such
      Subsidiary Guarantor's Maximum Liability). Each of the Subsidiary
      Guarantors covenants and agrees that its right to receive any contribution
      under this Guaranty from a Non-Paying Subsidiary Guarantor shall be
      subordinate and junior in right of payment to all the Guaranteed

                                       5
<PAGE>

      Obligations. The provisions of this Section 10(c) are for the benefit of
      both the Administrative Agent and the Subsidiary Guarantors and may be
      enforced by any one, or more, or all of them in accordance with the terms
      hereof.

      11. Application of Payments. All payments received by the Administrative
Agent hereunder shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to payment of the
Guaranteed Obligations in the order of priority set forth in Section 9.4 of the
Credit Agreement unless a court of competent jurisdiction shall otherwise
direct.

      12. Notices. All notices, requests and other communications to any party
hereunder shall be given or made by telecopier or other writing and telecopied,
or mailed or delivered to the intended recipient at its address or telecopier
number set forth on the signature pages hereof or such other address or telecopy
number as such party may hereafter specify for such purpose by notice to the
Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.1 of the
Credit Agreement. Except as otherwise provided in this Guaranty, all such
communications shall be deemed to have been duly given when transmitted by
telecopier, or personally delivered or, in the case of a mailed notice sent by
certified mail return-receipt requested, on the date set forth on the receipt
(provided, that any refusal to accept any such notice shall be deemed to be
notice thereof as of the time of any such refusal), in each case given or
addressed as aforesaid.

      13. No Waivers. No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any
Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a
waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or
privilege. The rights and remedies provided in this Guaranty, the Credit
Agreement, any Note and the other Credit Documents shall be cumulative and not
exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

      14. No Duty to Advise. Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors assumes all
responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the Principal's
financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the
risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and
extent of the risks that each of the Subsidiary Guarantors assumes and incurs
under this Guaranty, and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any
Lender has any duty to advise any of the Subsidiary Guarantors of information
known to it regarding those circumstances or risks.

      15. Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty is for the benefit of the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors and
permitted assigns and in the event of an assignment of any amounts payable under
the Credit Agreement, any Note, or the other Credit Documents, the rights
hereunder, to the extent applicable to the indebtedness so assigned, shall be
transferred with such indebtedness. This Guaranty shall be binding upon each of
the Subsidiary Guarantors and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

      16. Changes in Writing. Neither this Guaranty nor any provision hereof may
be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but only in writing signed
by each of the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Administrative Agent with the
consent of the Required Lenders.

                                       6
<PAGE>

      17. Costs of Enforcement. Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors agrees to pay
all costs and expenses including, without limitation, all court costs and
attorneys' fees and expenses paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent or any
Lender or any Affiliate of any Lender in endeavoring to collect all or any part
of the Guaranteed Obligations from, or in prosecuting any action against, the
Principal, the Subsidiary Guarantors or any other guarantor of all or any part
of the Guaranteed Obligations.

      18. GOVERNING LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THIS
GUARANTY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE
STATE OF ILLINOIS. EACH OF THE SUBSIDIARY GUARANTORS HEREBY SUBMITS TO THE
NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN
DISTRICT OF ILLINOIS AND OF ANY ILLINOIS STATE COURT SITTING IN CHICAGO,
ILLINOIS AND FOR PURPOSES OF ALL LEGAL PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO
THIS GUARANTY (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY OF THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS)
OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. EACH OF THE SUBSIDIARY GUARANTORS
IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION WHICH
ANY OF THEM MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH
PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT AND ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH PROCEEDING
BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. EACH OF THE
SUBSIDIARY GUARANTORS, AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS ACCEPTING
THIS GUARANTY, HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN
ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY OR THE
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

      19. Setoff. Without limiting the rights of the Administrative Agent or the
Lenders under applicable law, if all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations
is then due, whether pursuant to the occurrence of an Event of Default or
otherwise, then the Guarantor authorizes the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders to apply any sums standing to the credit of the Guarantor with the
Administrative Agent or any Lender of the Administrative Agent or any Lender
toward the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations.

      20. Taxes, etc. All payments required to be made by any of the Subsidiary
Guarantors hereunder shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and free and
clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present
or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties or other charges of whatsoever nature
imposed by any government or any political or taxing authority thereof
(excluding federal taxation of the overall income of any Lender), provided,
however, that if any of the Subsidiary Guarantors is required by law to make
such deduction or withholding, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall forthwith (i) pay
to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, as applicable, such additional amount
as results in the net amount received by the Administrative Agent or any Lender,
as applicable, equaling the full amount which would have been received by the
Administrative Agent or any Lender, as applicable, had no such deduction or
withholding been made, (ii) pay the full amount deducted to the relevant
authority in accordance with applicable law, and (iii) furnish to the

the Subordinated Obligations are expressly subordinate and junior in right of
payment (as defined in subsection 2.1(b)) to all Senior Obligations in all

      (b) "Subordinate and junior in right of payment" shall mean that:

            (i) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
      Default, (A) none of the Subordinated Creditors will, without the express
      prior written consent of the Senior Creditors or unless otherwise

      debtors, readjustment of indebtedness, reorganization, composition or
      extension of indebtedness, then, upon the occurrence and during the
      continuance of an Event of Default, unless otherwise agreed to or
      instructed in writing by the Senior Creditors, all Senior Obligations
      shall first be paid in full before any payment or distribution is made in
      respect of the Subordinated Obligations, and any payment or distribution
      of any kind or character (whether in cash, property or securities) that,
      but for the subordination provisions contained herein, would otherwise be
      payable or deliverable to a Subordinated Creditor upon or in respect of
      the Subordinated Obligations, shall instead be paid over or delivered to
      the Senior Creditors or their representatives, and such Subordinated
      Creditor shall not receive any such payment or distribution or any benefit
      therefrom unless and until the Senior Obligations shall have been fully
      paid and satisfied.

2.2 Power of Attorney; Agreement to Cooperate. Each of the Subordinated
Creditors hereby agrees, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, to duly and
promptly take such action as may be requested at any time and from time to time
by the Senior Creditors, to file appropriate

distribution or security or realization of the Collateral, or the proceeds of
any thereof, be collected or received by a Subordinated Creditor in respect of
the Subordinated Obligations, and such collection or receipt is received in a
receivership, insolvency, reorganization or bankruptcy proceeding involving a
Note Issuer or is not expressly permitted hereunder, the Subordinated Creditor
will forthwith turn over the same to the Senior Creditors in the form received
(except for endorsement or assignment by the Subordinated Creditor when
necessary) to be applied to the Senior Obligations and, until so turned over,
the same shall be held in trust by the Subordinated Creditor as the property of
the Senior Creditors.

2.4 Subrogation. The Subordinated Creditors shall not be subrogated to the
rights of the Senior Creditors to receive payments or distributions of assets of
the Note Issuers for the Senior Obligations.

Credit Agreement and the Senior Notes, respectively, on the date of such
payment, as certified by Administrative Agent and the Trustee, respectively, to
the other Senior Creditors.
