Borrowers) of a payment to the Administrative Agent for account of the Lenders
hereunder (any such payment being herein called the "Required Payment") that
such Payor will not make the Required Payment, the Administrative Agent may
(but shall not be obligated to) assume that the Payor is making the Required
Payment available to the Administrative Agent and, in reliance upon such
assumption, make available to the relevant Lenders or the Borrowers, as the
case may be, a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to
the Administrative Agent by the required time on such date, the Payor shall
pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon
at (in the case of a Lender) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (in the case
of the Borrowers) equal to the rate specified in Section 3.02(c) hereof, in
each case until such amount is made available to the Administrative Agent. A
certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Payor with respect to
any amounts owing under this Section shall be conclusive in the absence of
manifest error.

          4.06 Sharing of Payments.

          (a) If any Lender shall obtain payment of any principal of or
     interest on any Loan of any Tranche or payment of any other amount under
     this Agreement through the exercise of any right of set-off, banker's
     lien or counterclaim or similar right or otherwise (other than from the
     Administrative Agent as provided herein), and, as a result of such
     payment, such Lender shall have received a percentage of the principal of
     or interest on such Loan or such other amounts then due hereunder by any
     Borrower to such Lender in excess of its pro rata share thereof, it shall
     promptly purchase from such other Lenders participations in (or, if and
     to the extent specified by such Lender, direct interests in) the Loans of
     such Tranche or such other amounts, respectively, owing to such other
     Lenders


<PAGE>
                                                                            23




     (or in interest due thereon, as the case may be) in such amounts, and
     make such other adjustments from time to time, as shall be equitable, to
     the end that all the Lenders shall share the benefit of such excess
     payment (net of any expenses that may be incurred by such Lender in
     obtaining or preserving such excess payment) pro rata in accordance with
     the unpaid principal of and/or interest on the Loans of such Tranche or
     such other amounts, respectively, owing to each of the Lenders. To such
     end all the Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves
     (by the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is
     rescinded or must otherwise be restored; provided, that if any Lender
     shall commence an action or proceeding in any court to collect the
     principal of or interest on a Loan held by, or any other amount owed to,
     such Lender, and as a result thereof shall receive a disproportionate
     payment (other than any such payment received by such Lender as a result
     of attachment of, or set-off, exercise of banker's lien or any other
     proceedings against, deposits or other property held by such Lender),
     such Lender shall not be required to share any portion of such
     disproportionate payment with any other Lender which, having received
     notice from such first-mentioned Lender (through the Administrative
     Agent) of such action or proceeding, had the legal right to, but did not,
     join such action or proceeding or commence and diligently prosecute a
     separate action or proceeding in any appropriate court to collect (as
     applicable) the principal of or interest on the Loans held by, or other
     such amount owed to, such other Lender.

          (b) Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise
     any such right or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise, and
     retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any
     other indebtedness or obligation of any Obligor.

          4.07 Joint and Several Obligations. All of the obligations of the
Borrowers under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents are joint
and several. Without limitation and for the avoidance of doubt, each of the
waivers described in Section 7.02 and the limitation set forth in Section 7.08
hereof shall be deemed to apply to the obligations of each Borrower hereunder
as if such Borrower were a Guarantor.


          SECTION 5. YIELD PROTECTION, ETC.

          5.01 Additional Costs.

          (a) If, on or after the date hereof, the adoption of any Requirement
     of Law, or any change in any Requirement of Law, or any change in the
     interpretation or administration thereof by any court or other
     Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration
     thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office)
     with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of
     any such Governmental Authority, shall impose, modify or deem applicable
     any reserve (including, without limitation, any such requirement imposed
     by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), special
     deposit, contribution, insurance assessment or similar requirement
     against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit

<PAGE>
                                                                            24



     extended by, any Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) or shall
     impose on any Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) or the London
     interbank market any other condition affecting any Loan, Note or
     Commitment of such Lender, and the result of any of the foregoing is to
     increase the cost to such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) of
     making or maintaining any Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum
     received or receivable by such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office)
     under this Agreement or under any Note, by an amount reasonably deemed by
     such Lender to be material (other than Taxes, which shall be treated in
     accordance with Section 5.05 hereof), then the Borrowers shall pay to
     such Lender on the date five (5) business days after demand, such
     additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such
     increased cost or reduction; provided, that this clause (a) shall not be
     deemed to apply to any increase in cost to, or reduction in an amount
     received or receivable by, such Lender described above in this clause (a)
     to the extent attributable to regulatory action taken by reason of the
     occurrence of a material adverse change in the financial condition or
     capitalization of such Lender.

          (b) If any Lender shall have determined that, after the date hereof,
     the adoption of any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy, or any
     change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration
     thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or
     administration thereof, or any request or directive regarding capital
     adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such
     Governmental Authority, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate
     of return on capital of such Lender (or its parent) as a consequence of
     such Lender's obligations hereunder or its Loan or Loans to a level below
     that which such Lender (or its parent) could have achieved but for such
     adoption, change, request or directive by an amount reasonably deemed by
     it to be material, then from time to time, within 15 days after demand
     (which refers to the relevant Requirement of Law in reasonable detail) by
     such Lender, the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such additional
     amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender (or its parent) for such
     reduction; provided, that this clause (b) shall not be deemed to apply to
     any such reduction incurred by a Lender to the extent attributable to
     regulatory action taken by reason of the occurrence of a material adverse
     change in the financial condition or capitalization of such Lender.

          (c) Each Lender will promptly notify the Borrowers of any event of
     which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which will
     entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section, such notice
     to provide reasonable detail of such event. Before giving any such notice
     pursuant to this subsection (c) such Lender shall designate a different
     Applicable Lending Office if such designation (i) will, in the reasonable
     judgment of such Lender, avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of,
     such compensation and (ii) will not, in the reasonable judgment of such
     Lender, be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. A certificate of
     any Lender claiming compensation under this Section 5.01, setting forth
     the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder and providing
     reasonable detail as aforesaid, shall be conclusive and binding on the
     Borrowers in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount,
     such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods as
     long as such methods are consistent with such Lender's treatment of
     customers similar to the


<PAGE>
                                                                            25



     Borrowers having generally similar provisions in their agreements with
     such Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in clauses (a) and
     (b) above, no Lender shall be entitled to make a claim for compensation
     with respect to any event occurring more than 180 days prior to the date
     on which such Lender notifies the Borrowers of its claim for
     compensation.

          (d) If any Lender requests compensation under this Section 5.01, the
     Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such
     Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and
     delegate, without recourse (subject to the restrictions contained in
     Section 14.06), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this
     Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which
     assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment);
     provided, that (i) such assignee shall be subject to the prior approval
     of the Administrative Agent, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment
     in full of the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest
     thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, and
     (iii) such assignment is reasonably expected to result in a reduction in
     such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any
     such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver
     by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to
     require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

          5.02 Substitute Basis. If, on or prior to the first day of any
Interest Period (an "Affected Interest Period"):


          (a) the Administrative Agent determines that, by reason of
     circumstances affecting the London interbank eurodollar market, the "LIBO
     Rate" cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof, or

          (b) the Majority Lenders determine and notify the Administrative
     Agent that the relevant rates of interest referred to in the definition
     of "LIBO Rate" in Section 1.01 hereof upon the basis of which the rate of
     interest for Loans for such Affected Interest Period is to be determined
     will not be adequate to cover the cost to such Lenders of making or
     maintaining their Loans for such Affected Interest Period,

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof (a "Rate Determination
Notice") to the Borrowers and the Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter.
If such notice is given, during the ninety-day period following such Rate
Determination Notice (the "Negotiation Period") the Administrative Agent and
the Borrowers shall negotiate in good faith with a view to agreeing upon a
substitute interest rate basis (having the written approval of the Majority
Lenders) for the Loans which shall reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding
their Loans from alternative sources (a "Substitute Basis"), and if such
Substitute Basis is so agreed upon during the Negotiation Period, such
Substitute Basis shall apply in lieu of the LIBO Rate to all Interest Periods
commencing on or after the first day of the Affected Interest Period, until
the circumstances giving rise to such notice have ceased to apply. If a
Substitute Basis is not agreed upon during the Negotiation Period, the Base
Rate as in effect from time to time shall apply in lieu of the LIBO Rate for
the relevant Interest Periods.

          5.03 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, in the event that on or after the date hereof the adoption of or
any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application
thereof by any Governmental Authority shall make it unlawful for any Lender or
its Applicable Lending Office to make or maintain Loans hereunder (and, in the
opinion of such Lender, the designation of a different Applicable Lending
Office would either not avoid such unlawfulness or would be disadvantageous to
such Lender), then such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrowers thereof
(with a copy to the Administrative Agent) following which (a) such Lender's
Commitment shall be suspended until such time as such Lender may again make
and maintain Loans hereunder and (b) if such Requirement of Law shall so
mandate, such Lender's Loans shall be prepaid by the Borrowers, together with
accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other amounts payable by the
Borrowers under this Agreement, on or before such date as shall be mandated by
such Requirement of Law; provided, however, that if it is lawful for such
Lender to maintain its Loans through the last day of the current Interest
Period, such payment shall be made on such date; provided further, however,
that the relevant Lender shall use its reasonable efforts to avoid or minimize
the effect of such Requirement of Law, including by transferring the affected
Loan or Loans to a different lending office, if it can do so without material
cost, expense or legal detriment to it, in its sole and absolute judgment. In
the event that the effects of the Requirement of Law cannot be avoided or
minimized by such Lender as provided in this Section 5.03, the Borrowers may,
if no Default has occurred and is continuing, at their sole expense and
effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such
Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (subject to the restrictions
contained in Section 14.06), all of its interest, rights and obligations under
this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which
assignee may be another Lender, if such other Lender accepts such assignment);
provided, that (i) such assignee shall be subject to the prior approval of the
Administrative Agent, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment in full of
the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees
and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, and (iii) such assignment is
reasonably expected to result in a reduction in such compensation or payments.
A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if,
prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the
circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and
delegation cease to apply.

          5.04 Compensation. The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative
Agent for account of each Lender, upon the request of such Lender through the
Administrative Agent, such amount or amounts (if any) as shall be sufficient
to compensate it for any loss, cost or expense that such Lender determines is
attributable to:

                  (a) any optional or mandatory prepayment of any Loan made by
         such Lender for any reason on a date other than the last day of an
         Interest Period; and

                  (b) any failure by the Borrowers for any reason (including,
         without limitation, the failure of any of the conditions precedent
         specified in Section 6 hereof to be satisfied) to make a Borrowing on
         the date for such Borrowing specified in the Notice of Borrowing
         given pursuant to Section 2.02 hereof, or to prepay such Loan in
         accordance with a notice of prepayment under Section 3.03 hereof or a
         Change of Control Notice under


<PAGE>
                                                                            27


          Section 3.04 hereof or any assignment by such Lender pursuant to
          Section 5.01(d) or Section 5.03 hereof on a date other than the last
          day of an Interest Period.

Each Lender will furnish to the Borrowers a certificate setting forth the
basis and amount of each request by such Lender for compensation under this
Section 5.04, which certificate shall be conclusive and binding on the
Borrowers in the absence of manifest error.

          5.05 Taxes.

          (a) All payments on account of the principal of and interest on the
     Loans and the Notes, fees and all other amounts payable hereunder by the
     Borrowers to or for the account of each Agent or any Lender, including,
     without limitation, amounts payable under paragraph (b) of this Section
     5.05, shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or liability
     for Covered Taxes, unless otherwise required by applicable law, decree or
     regulation.

          (b) The Borrowers shall indemnify each Agent and each Lender
     against, and reimburse them upon demand for, any Covered Taxes paid at
     any time by such Agent or such Lender (as the case may be) and any loss,
     liability, claim or expense, including interest, penalties, surcharges
     and legal fees, that such Agent or such Lender may incur at any time
     arising out of or in connection with any failure of the Borrowers to make
     any payment of Covered Taxes when due. Each Agent and Lender agrees
     promptly to notify the Borrowers of any event known to it that would give
     rise to a payment under this Section 5.05(b) by the Borrowers.

          (c) Subject to compliance by the Agent and the relevant Lender with
     its obligations specified in this Section 5.05, in the event that any
     Borrower, any Person making a payment hereunder on behalf of such
     Borrower or any Agent shall be required by applicable law, decree or
     regulation to deduct or withhold Covered Taxes from any amounts payable
     on, under or in respect of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or the
     Loans, the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after
     making all required deductions and withholdings the recipient of such
     payment receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no
     such deduction or withholding been made.

          (d) Each Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent copies,
     certified by the Responsible Officer of such Borrower, of the tax forms,
     duly completed and evidencing each payment of Covered Taxes required
     under this Section 5.05, as soon as practicable (and in any event no
     later than 45 days) after the date such payment is made, and such
     Borrower shall promptly furnish to the Administrative Agent at its
     request or at the request of any Lender (through the Administrative
     Agent) or the other Agent any other information, documents and receipts
     that the Administrative Agent or such other Agent or such Lender may
     reasonably require to establish that full and timely payment has been
     made of all Covered Taxes required to be paid under this Section 5.05.

                                                                            28



                  (e) Each Borrower agrees to pay all present and future
         stamp, court or documentary taxes and any other excise taxes, charges
         or similar levies and any related interest or penalties incidental
         thereto imposed by Mexico, or any jurisdiction from which any amount
         payable hereunder is made, or any municipality or other political
         subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein which arises from
         any payment made by such Borrower hereunder or from the execution,
         delivery, enforcement or registration (if mandatory under Mexican
         law) of any of the Loan Documents (hereinafter referred to as "Other
         Applicable Taxes").

                  (f) Each Lender (other than a Mexican Bank) party to this
         Agreement on the date hereof (A) represents and warrants to the
         Borrowers that, as of the date hereof, (i) such Lender is registered
         with the Ministry of Finance as a foreign financial institution in
         the registry referred to in Article 197 (or any successor provision)
         of the Mexican Income Tax Law (Ley del Impuesto sobre la Renta), and
         intends to be the effective beneficiary of the interest payable under
         this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) such Lender is a
         resident of a country (or the main office of which, if lending
         through a branch or agency, is resident of a country) with which
         Mexico has entered into a treaty for the avoidance of double taxation
         which is in effect, and complies with the requirements provided in
         such treaty to apply a reduced withholding tax rate on interest and
         (iii) such treaty provides that the rate of withholding tax on
         interest payments received by a foreign financial institution on a
         loan is 4.9% or less, and (B) agrees that it will use best efforts to
         (x) continue to comply with the requirements of such treaty for so
         long as it provides a reduced withholding tax rate under the Mexican
         Income Tax Law or such double taxation treaty, (y) file all
         documentation necessary to maintain its registration with the
         Ministry of Finance in the registry referred to in Article 197 (or
         any successor provision) of the Mexican Income Tax Law, so long as
         such requirement remains applicable, and (z) maintain its status
         (directly or through its main office, if lending through a branch or
         agency) as a resident for tax purposes of the country of which it is
         currently a resident and be the effective beneficiary of any interest
         paid.

                  (g) Each Lender (other than a Mexican Bank) and the
         Administrative Agent will use all reasonable commercial efforts to
         provide to the Borrowers (or as appropriate, complete and file with
         the appropriate governmental authority), within 60 days of a written
         request made by the Borrowers, such duly completed form,
         certification or similar documentation, if any, as is then required
         under applicable law, regulation or published administrative rule or
         double taxation treaty to which Mexico is a party, which is in
         effect, in order to obtain an exemption from, or reduced rate of,
         deduction, payment or withholding in respect of Covered Taxes to
         which such Lender or the Administrative Agent would be entitled on
         interest payments made to such Lender or the Administrative Agent
         pursuant to a tax treaty that is in effect or the law or regulations
         of the relevant jurisdiction; provided, that neither any Lender nor
         the Administrative Agent shall have any obligation to provide such
         form, certification or similar document (unless required under
         applicable law) if, in the sole and absolute judgment of such Lender
         or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, it would be required
         to disclose confidential information and such disclosure would be
         materially disadvantageous to such Lender or the Administrative
         Agent.

               (h) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or
          reduction of United States withholding tax with respect to payments
          under this Agreement shall deliver to the applicable 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 or reasonably requested
          by such Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without
          withholding or at a reduced rate.

               (i) Any Lender (other than a Mexican Bank) claiming any
          additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 5.05, which are
          in excess of the tax imposed at the lowest rate of withholding that
          would be otherwise applicable to such Lender and which exceed
          additional amounts payable on the date hereof (provided, that such
          Lender is in compliance with the requirements set forth in Section
          5.05(f), (g) and (i)), agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent
          with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to
          change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office if, in the
          sole and absolute judgment of such Lender, such change (i) would
          eliminate or reduce any such excess additional amounts and (ii)
          would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

               (j) No Borrower shall be required to indemnify any Lender under
          clauses (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 5.05 for any additional
          amounts in respect of Covered Taxes to the extent that such Covered
          Taxes or portion thereof would not have been withheld but for the
          fact that the representation and warranty in clause (f)(A) above is
          incorrect with respect to such Lender or the failure of such Lender
          to comply with the provisions of clauses (f)(B), (g) (unless such
          Lender is a Mexican Bank) and (h) of this Section 5.05.

               (k) If a Loan Party determines, in its sole discretion, that it
          has received a refund of any Covered Taxes as to which it has been
          indemnified by one of the Borrowers or with respect to which one of
          the Borrowers has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section
          5.05, it may, in its sole discretion, pay over such refund to the
          Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or
          additional amounts paid, by the applicable Borrower under this
          Section 5.05 with respect to the Covered Taxes giving rise to such
          refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Loan Party and
          without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant

                    (x) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any
               other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a

          any other Loan Document or other agreement or instrument referred to
          herein or therein, or against any other Person under any other

               (d) Each Guarantor further waives, to the fullest extent
          permitted by applicable law, any right to which it may be entitled,
          including, without limitation:

                                                                            37


                    (ii) to require that the Borrowers be sued and all claims
               against the Borrowers be completed prior to an action or
               proceeding being initiated against such Guarantor;

                    (iii) to have its obligations hereunder be divided among
               the Guarantors, such that each Guarantor's obligation would be

                    (iv) to the extent applicable, under Articles 2814, 2815,

          7.03 Reinstatement. The obligations of each Guarantor under this
Section 7 shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any
reason any payment by or on behalf of the Borrowers in respect of the
Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any
holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any
proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and the Guarantors
jointly and severally agree that they will indemnify the Loan Parties on
demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation,
reasonable fees of counsel, but without duplication of the obligations of the
Borrowers under this Agreement) incurred by them in connection with such
rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in
defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a
preference, fraudulent transfer or the like under any bankruptcy, insolvency
or similar law.

          7.04 Subrogation. The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree
that, until the final payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations and the
expiration or termination of the Commitments under this Agreement, they shall
not exercise any right or remedy arising by reason of any performance by any
of them of their guarantee in Section 7.01 hereof, whether by subrogation,
reimbursement, contribution or otherwise, against the Borrowers or any other
guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the
Guaranteed Obligations.

          7.05 Remedies. Each Guarantor agrees that, as between such Guarantor
and the Loan Parties, the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement,
the Notes or any other Loan Documents may be declared to be forthwith due and
payable as provided in Section 11 hereof (and shall be deemed to have become
automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in said Section
11) for purposes of Section 7.01 hereof, notwithstanding any stay, injunction
or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from
becoming automatically due and payable) as against the Borrowers and that, in
the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become
automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and
payable by the Borrowers) shall forthwith become due and payable by such
Guarantor for purposes of said Section 7.01.

          7.06 Payments. Except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in

without deduction, set-off or counterclaim at the place specified in Section 4
hereof and free and clear of any and all present and future Covered Taxes,
without prejudice to the provisions of Section 5.05 hereof.

          7.07 Rights of Contribution. The Guarantors hereby agree, as among
themselves, that if any Guarantor shall become an Excess Funding Guarantor (as
defined below) by reason of the payment by such Guarantor of any of the
Guaranteed Obligations, each other Guarantor shall, on written demand of such
Excess Funding Guarantor (but subject to the next sentence), pay to such
Excess Funding Guarantor an amount equal to such Guarantor's Pro Rata Share
(as defined below and determined, for this purpose, without reference to the
Properties, debts and liabilities of such Excess Funding Guarantor) of said
payment of the Guaranteed Obligations.

          For purposes of this Section 7.07, (i) "Excess Funding Guarantor"
shall mean, in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, a Guarantor that has
paid an amount in excess of its Pro Rata Share of such Guaranteed Obligations,
(ii) "Excess Payment" shall mean, in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations,
the amount paid by an Excess Funding Guarantor in excess of its Pro Rata Share
of such Guaranteed Obligations and (iii) "Pro Rata Share" shall mean, for any
Guarantor, the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of (x) the amount by which
the aggregate fair saleable value of all Properties of such Guarantor
(excluding any shares of stock of any other Guarantor) exceeds the amount of
all the debts and liabilities of such Guarantor (including contingent,
subordinated, unmatured and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the
obligations of such Guarantor hereunder and any obligations of any other
Guarantor that have been Guaranteed by such Guarantor) to (y) the amount by
which the aggregate fair saleable value of all Properties of the Guarantors
exceeds the amount of all debts and liabilities (including contingent,
subordinated, unmatured and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the
obligations of the Borrowers and the Guarantors hereunder) of all of the
Guarantors, determined as of the date hereof.

          7.08 General Limitation on Guarantee Obligations. To the extent that
the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder would, by reason of any applicable
domestic or foreign law, rule or regulation (including any domestic or foreign
corporate law, or any domestic or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally) be
held or determined to be void, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to
the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability
hereunder, then, notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary,
the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such
Guarantor, any Lender, either Agent or any other Person, be automatically
limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable and
not subordinated to the claims of other creditors.

          7.09 Limitation on Guarantee Obligations of Swiss Guarantors.
Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the aggregate amount payable
by each Swiss Guarantor hereunder at any time (including, but not limited to,
payments pursuant to Section 7.01 and Section 7.07 hereof) shall be limited
for each such Swiss Guarantor to an amount equal to the maximum amount of the
freely distributable retained earnings of such Swiss Guarantor under the law
of Switzerland as of such time.

demanded from it hereunder in the lawful currency of the Republic of Colombia;
provided, that the Colombian Guarantor shall use its best efforts to obtain
any and all such licenses, consents and approvals of any Colombian

such amounts in Dollars, and, if successful in such efforts, will promptly
furnish evidence thereof to the Administrative Agent, in form and substance
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and thereafter shall make all such
payments in Dollars in accordance with Section 7.06 hereof.


          SECTION 8. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Except as otherwise
specified herein, each Obligor represents and warrants to the Loan Parties
with respect to itself (except as otherwise provided herein) that, as of the
date hereof and as of the date of the Borrowing (unless otherwise specified):

          8.01 Power and Authority. It (a) is a corporation, a sociedad
anonima de capital variable or a sociedad anonima, as applicable, duly

and authority to make and perform each of the Loan Documents to which it is a
party and to borrow the Loans hereunder and (e) is in compliance with all
applicable laws and regulations except where failure to be in compliance could

(b) any Requirement of Law, or (c) any agreement or instrument or material
contractual restriction binding on or affecting it or any of its Property, and

Property, except Liens created or arising under the Loan Documents. No part of
the proceeds of the Loans will be used for the purpose, whether immediate,
incidental or ultimate, of buying or carrying any "margin stock" within the
meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System (and no Indebtedness refinanced with the proceeds of the Loans will
have been used for such purpose).

hereof, no license, consent, authorization or approval or other action by, or
notice to or filing or registration with, any Governmental Authority
(including without limitation any foreign exchange approval), and no other
third-party consent or approval, is necessary for the due execution, delivery
and performance by such Obligor of the Loan Documents or for the legality,
validity, binding effect or enforceability thereof against it. In the case of
VVP Syndication, no filing, registration or


<PAGE>
                                                                            40



other action is required to be accomplished in Mexico, under the laws of
Mexico, in order to cause the security interest created under Section 12
hereof in the Deposit Collateral to be a valid first and prior perfected
security interest therein.

          8.04 Legal Effect. Each of this Agreement and each other Loan
Document to which it is a party has been duly executed and delivered by such
Obligor, this Agreement and each other Loan Document (other than the Notes)
constitutes and each Note when duly executed and delivered by such Obligor for
value received, and, in the case of a Guarantor, endorsed "por aval" by such
Guarantor, will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of such
Obligor, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.

          8.05 Financial Statements. The audited (or, in the case of each U.S.
Guarantor, unaudited) consolidated balance sheet of such Obligor and its
consolidated Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001 (or, in the case of each
Swiss Guarantor, December 31, 2002) and the related audited (or, in the case
of each U.S. Guarantor, unaudited) consolidated statements of income and cash
flows for the fiscal year ending on that date, with the opinion thereon (i) in
the case of the Mexican Obligors, the Mexican office of Deloitte & Touche or
other independent public accountants of recognized international standing and
(ii) in the case of each other Obligor (other than the U.S. Guarantors),
independent public accountants of recognized international standing, and the
unaudited consolidated balance sheet of such Obligor and its consolidated
Subsidiaries as of September 30, 2002 and the related unaudited consolidated
statements of income and cash flows for the nine-month period then ended,
certified by the chief financial officer of Vitro Plan, each of which has
heretofore been furnished to the Lenders, are complete and correct and fairly

consolidated Subsidiaries as at said respective dates and the consolidated
results of their respective operations for the fiscal year and nine-month
period ending on said dates, all in accordance with GAAP, and such Obligor and
its Subsidiaries do not have material contingent liabilities or unusual
forward or long-term commitments not disclosed therein. Since December 31,
2001, no event or circumstance has occurred that has had a Material Adverse
Effect.

          8.06 Ranking. The payment obligations of such Obligor hereunder are
and will at all times be unconditional and unsubordinated general obligations
of such Obligor and rank and will at all times rank at least pari passu with
all other present and future unsecured Indebtedness of each Borrower and each
Guarantor.

          8.07 No Actions or Proceedings. There is no litigation,
investigation or proceeding pending or, to the best of its knowledge,
threatened against such Obligor or any of its Subsidiaries by or before any
Governmental Authority that (either individually or in the aggregate) could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The operations of
such Obligor and those of its Subsidiaries comply with all applicable laws,
rules, regulations and orders (including without limitation all Environmental
Laws) of Governmental Authorities, except to the extent the failure to so
comply (either individually or in the aggregate) could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

performance by it of the Loan Documents constitute private and commercial acts
rather than public or governmental acts. It is not entitled to any immunity on

connection therewith, arising under the Loan Documents.

          8.09 Taxes. There is no income, stamp or other similar tax, levy,
assessment, impost, deduction, charge or withholding imposed by Mexico (or any
municipality or other political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or
therein that exercises power to impose such tax, levy, assessment, impost,
deduction, charge or withholding) either (a) on or by virtue of the execution
or delivery by any Mexican Obligor of the Loan Documents or (b) on any payment
to be made by any Mexican Obligor pursuant to the Loan Documents, other than
any such tax, levy, assessment, impost, deduction, charge or withholding
imposed on any Person as a result of such Person being organized under the
laws of Mexico or by virtue of its having a permanent establishment in Mexico
to which income under the Loan Documents is attributable or its Applicable
Lending Office being located in Mexico, except for withholding tax on payments
of interest and fees deemed to be interest to Lenders that are not Mexican
Banks. It has filed all material tax returns required to be filed and paid all
taxes shown to be due thereon except such as are being contested in good faith
by appropriate proceedings and for which adequate reserves have been made if
required in accordance with GAAP.

          8.10 Legal Form. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents to
which it is a party are in proper legal form under the laws of its
jurisdiction of incorporation for the enforcement thereof against it under
such law. All formalities required in its jurisdiction of incorporation for
the validity and enforceability of each of the Loan Documents have been
satisfied, and no Covered Taxes are required to be paid and no notarization is
required, for the validity and enforceability thereof; provided, that in the
event any legal proceedings are brought in the courts of Mexico, a Spanish
translation of the documents required in such proceedings needs to be prepared
by a court-approved translator and would have to be approved by such court
after the defendant had been given an opportunity to be heard with respect to
the accuracy of the translation, and proceedings would thereafter be based
upon the translated documents.

          8.11 Full Disclosure. The information, reports, financial
statements, exhibits and schedules contained in the Information Memorandum,
taken as a whole, do not contain any untrue statement of material fact,
provided, that no such representation and warranty is made as to any
projections or forward-looking information contained therein except that such
projections or forward-looking information have been prepared in good faith on
assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time of preparation thereof. All
other written information furnished after the date hereof by such Obligor to
the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with this Agreement and
the transactions contemplated hereby will be true, complete and accurate in

interests in, all its real and personal property material to its business,
except for (i) easements, zoning restrictions, rights-of-way and similar

value of the affected property or interfere with the ordinary conduct of its
business and (ii) minor defects in title that do not interfere with its
ability to conduct its business as currently conducted or to utilize such
properties for their intended purposes.

          (b) It owns, or is licensed to use, all trademarks, trade names,

     12.01 is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. VVP Syndication
     further irrevocably agrees that the Administrative Agent and Tranche C
     Agent may give instructions regarding such transactions directly to the
     Collateral Agent, and, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor
     Agreement, VVP Syndication hereby irrevocably authorizes and instructs
     the Collateral Agent to act upon such instructions from the
     Administrative Agent and Tranche C Agent with respect to the Cash Reserve
     Amount without any further consent of, or instruction from it. The
     Collateral Agent shall, within 10 days after receiving an authenticated
     demand from VVP Syndication following payment of all amounts owing
     hereunder and under any other Loan Document, send to the Intermediary an
     authenticated statement that releases the Intermediary from any further
     obligation to comply with instructions originated by the Collateral
     Agent.

          (d) Instructions. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor
     Agreement, the Collateral Agent hereby agrees to accept and follow
     instructions from the Administrative Agent and Tranche C Agent with
     respect to the Cash Reserve Account and the Deposit Collateral. The
     Collateral Agent shall be entitled to assume that no Default has occurred
     and is continuing unless it receives notice in writing from the
     Administrative Agent or the Tranche C Agent to the contrary.

          (e) Advice. The Collateral Agent may at any time request the
     Administrative Agent or the Tranche C Agent to advise it of the aggregate
     amount of fees, expenses and other amounts falling due hereunder, and the
     Collateral Agent may rely conclusively upon the information so provided.

          (f) Full Recourse. No receipt, holding, application or disposition
     of all or any part of the Deposit Collateral shall relieve any Borrower
     of its liability for any deficiency in payment of its obligations under
     the Loan Documents.

          (g) Charges, etc. All fees, service charges, costs, adjustments for
     any deposit errors, returned or dishonored items, uncollected funds or
     any other deficiency for other charges and claims for any liability,
     loss, damage cost or expense of the Collateral Agent relating to the Cash
     Reserve Account (except to the extent any such amount is primarily
     attributed to the Collateral Agent's bad faith, willful misconduct or
     gross negligence) will be charged to the Cash Reserve Account. In the
     event that the Collateral Agent is unable to recover all such amounts,
     the Collateral Agent may, until such amounts are paid in full, (i) debit
     any other account of VVP Syndication, (ii) debit any other account in the
     name of VVP Syndication for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and/or
     (iii) make demand therefor on VVP Syndication and VVP Syndication shall
     remit payment in good and collected funds to the Collateral Agent within
     two Business Days of such demand.

          (h) VVP Syndication Representation. VVP Syndication represents and
     warrants to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Creditors that
     (a) it is the sole beneficial owner of the Deposit Collateral, (b) no
     Lien exists upon the Deposit Collateral at any time, except for Liens
     hereunder, and (c) the pledge and security interest in favor of the
     Collateral Agent created or provided for herein constitute a valid first
     Lien on and prior perfected security interest in the Deposit Collateral,
     subject to no other Lien, except for Liens hereunder.

          (i) Release. The Administrative Agent shall, promptly upon receiving
     the evidence referred to in the proviso to Section 7.10 hereof, if no
     Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, instruct the Collateral
     Agent to release from the Cash Reserve Account an amount equal to the
     Interim Supplement referred to in the definition of "Required Cash
     Reserve Balance", and the Collateral Agent shall forthwith release the
     same.

          12.02 Permitted Investments. The collected credit balance of the
Cash Reserve Account will be invested by the Collateral Agent from time to
time, for the benefit of VVP Syndication, in one or more Permitted
Investments, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
The Collateral Agent shall, from time to time upon the reasonable request of
VVP Syndication, provide information in respect of the Permitted Investments
in which such balances may have been invested. The Collateral Agent shall have
no liability or responsibility whatsoever and makes no representation or
warranty as to the enforceability, validity, value, the creditworthiness or
collectibility of any Permitted Investment or the Cash Reserve Account.

                                                                            54


          12.03 Certain Provisions Relating to Agents.

          (a) The Collateral Agent shall take steps as are instructed in
     writing by the Administrative Agent or Tranche C Agent from time to time
     with respect to the Deposit Collateral, subject to the terms of the
     Intercreditor Agreement and the rights of the Borrowers under the Loan
     Documents. The Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action
     which it considers to be contrary to law or this Agreement or the Account
     Control Agreement, or which would subject it to personal liability,
     provided that if the Collateral Agent shall decline to take action for
     any such reason, it shall immediately notify the Administrative Agent,
     the Tranche C Agent and the Borrowers.

          (b) Neither Agent nor the Tranche C Agent shall be liable for any
     action taken or omitted by it with respect to the Deposit Collateral on
     the instructions of the other Agent or the Tranche C Agent. Each Agent
     and the Tranche C Agent may conclusively rely and shall be fully
     protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any certificate,
     statement, request, agreement or other instrument it reasonably believes
     to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by or on behalf of the
     other Agent or the Tranche C Agent. In maintaining the Cash Reserve
     Account and otherwise acting hereunder, the Collateral Agent may consult
     with counsel and shall be fully protected with respect to any action
     taken or omitted by it in good faith on advice of counsel and shall have
     no liability hereunder except for its bad faith, willful misconduct or
     gross negligence with respect to its obligations hereunder.

          12.04 Intercreditor Agreement. The parties acknowledge that the
Deposit Collateral shall be subject to the terms of the Intercreditor
Agreement.

          12.05 Events of Default, Etc. While an Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, subject in each case to the terms of the Intercreditor
Agreement:

          (a) the Collateral Agent shall have all of the rights and remedies
     with respect to the Deposit Collateral of a secured party under the
     Uniform Commercial Code as in effect from time to time in the State of
     New York (whether or not said Code is in effect in the jurisdiction where
     the rights and remedies are asserted) and such I additional rights and
     remedies to which a secured party is entitled under the laws in effect in
     any jurisdiction where any rights and remedies hereunder may be asserted,
     including, without limitation, the right, to the maximum extent permitted
     by law, to exercise all powers of ownership pertaining to the Deposit
     Collateral as if the Collateral Agent were the sole and absolute owner
     thereof (and VVP Syndication agrees to take all such action as may be
     appropriate to give effect to such right);

          (b) the Collateral Agent may apply or direct the application of any
     balances then on deposit in the Cash Reserve Account to the
     Administrative Agent and the Tranche C Agent for the payment of any of
     the Secured Obligations then due and unpaid;


<PAGE>

                                                                            55


          (c) the Collateral Agent may liquidate any Permitted Investments and
     apply or cause to be applied the proceeds thereof to the payment of the
     Secured Obligations then due and unpaid in the order specified in the
     Intercreditor Agreement; and

The Collateral Agent agrees to provide VVP Syndication, in a commercially
reasonably manner, with prompt notice of actions taken under this Section
12.05.

          12.06 Deficiency. If the proceeds of collection or other realization
of or upon the Deposit Collateral pursuant to Section 12.05 hereof are
insufficient to cover the reasonably incurred costs and expenses of such
realization and the payment in full of the Secured Obligations, the Borrowers
shall remain liable for any deficiency.

          12.07 Removals, Etc. Without at least 30 days' prior written notice
to the Collateral Agent, VVP Syndication shall not (a) maintain any of its
books and records with respect to the Collateral at any office or maintain its
principal place of business at any place other than at the address for notices
indicated in Section 14.02 hereof or (b) change its name, or the name under
which it does business, from the name shown on the signature pages hereto.

          12.08 Attorney-in-Fact. Without limiting any rights or powers
granted by this Agreement to the Collateral Agent while no Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance
of any Event of Default the Collateral Agent is hereby appointed the
attorney-in-fact of VVP Syndication for the purpose of carrying out the
provisions of this Section 12 and taking any action and executing any
instruments that the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable, acting
in a commercially reasonable manner, to accomplish the purposes hereof, which
appointment as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, so long as the Collateral
Agent shall be entitled under this Section 12 to make collections in respect
of the Deposit Collateral, and the Collateral Agent shall have the right and
power to receive, endorse and collect all checks made payable to the order of
VVP Syndication representing any payment or other distribution in respect of
the Deposit Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the
same.

          12.09 Termination. When all Secured Obligations shall have been paid
in full, this Agreement shall terminate, and the Collateral Agent shall
forthwith cause to be assigned, transferred and delivered, against receipt but
without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, any remaining
Deposit Collateral and money received in respect thereof, to or on the order
of VVP Syndication.

          12.10 No Waiver. No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent to
exercise, and no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay in
exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Collateral Agent of
any right, power or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The remedies
herein are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

                                                                            56


          SECTION 13. THE AGENTS.

          13.01 Appointment, Powers and Immunities.

               (i) Each Lender hereby appoints and authorizes each Agent to
          act as its agent hereunder and under the Intercreditor Agreement and
          the Account Control Agreement with such powers as are specifically
          delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together
          with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Each
          Agent (which term as used in this sentence and in Section 13.05
          hereof and the first sentence of Section 13.06 hereof shall include
          reference to their respective affiliates and its own and their
          respective affiliates' officers, directors, employees and agents):

          (a) shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly
     set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall not
     by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents be a trustee or
     fiduciary for any party hereto;

          (b) shall not be responsible to the Lenders for any recitals,
     statements, representations or warranties contained in this Agreement or
     the other Loan Documents, or in any certificate or other document
     referred to or provided for in, or received by any of them under, this
     Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or for the value, validity,
     effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of any Loan
     Document or any other document referred to or provided for herein or
     therein or for any failure by any Obligor or any other Person to perform
     any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder;

          (c) shall not be required to initiate or conduct any litigation or
     collection proceedings hereunder (and shall not commence an action or
     proceeding on behalf of any Lender without obtaining the consent of such
     Lender thereto); and

          (d) shall not be responsible for any action taken or omitted to be
     taken by it hereunder or under any other document or instrument referred
     to or provided for herein or therein or in connection herewith or
     therewith, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Each Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be
responsible for the negligence or misconduct of or for the supervision of any
such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it in good faith.

               (ii) Each Lender and the Administrative Agent irrevocably
          authorize and direct the Administrative Agent and the Collateral
          Agent to enter into the Intercreditor Agreement and to comply with
          the terms thereof.

               (iii) Before the Collateral Agent acts or refrains from acting
          hereunder, it may require an officer's certificate of the Borrowers
          and/or an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Collateral Agent
          with respect to such action or inaction. The Collateral Agent shall
          not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith
          in reliance on such certificate or opinion. Whenever in the
          administration of this Agreement the Collateral Agent shall deem it
          necessary


<PAGE>
                                                                            57



          or desirable that a matter be provided or established prior to
          taking or suffering or omitting to take any act under this
          Agreement, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be
          herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of gross
          negligence or bad faith on the part of the Collateral Agent, be
          deemed to be conclusively proved and established by an officers'
          certificate delivered to the Collateral Agent, and such certificate,
          in the absence of gross negligence or bad faith on the part of the
          Collateral Agent, shall be full warrant to the Collateral Agent for
          any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it under the
          provisions of Section 12 upon the faith thereof.

          13.02 Reliance by Agents. Each Agent shall be entitled to
conclusively rely upon any certification, notice or other communication
(including, without limitation, any thereof by telephone, telecopy, telex,
telegram or cable) reasonably believed by it to be genuine and correct and to
have been signed, made or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person or
Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel and other experts
selected by such Agent, as the case may be. As to any matters not expressly
provided for by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, each Agent shall
in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting,
hereunder in accordance with instructions given by the Majority Lenders, and
such instructions of the Majority Lenders and any action taken or failure to
act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the Lenders.

          13.03 Defaults. Neither Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or
notice of the occurrence of a Default (other than, in the case of the
Administrative Agent, a failure to make a payment of principal of or interest
on the Loans) unless such Agent has received notice from a Lender or a
Borrower specifying such Default and stating that such notice is a "Notice of
Default". In the event that the Administrative Agent receives a Notice of a
Default, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the
Lenders and the Collateral Agent. The Administrative Agent shall (subject to
Section 13.07 hereof) take such action with respect to any such Default as
shall be directed by the Majority Lenders or, if provided herein, in
accordance with the instructions given by the Majority Tranche A Lenders, the
Majority Tranche B Lenders or all of the Lenders as is required in such
circumstance, provided, that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall
have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be
obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with
respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of the
Lenders except to the extent that this Agreement expressly requires that such
action be taken, or not be taken, only with the consent or upon the
authorization of the Majority Lenders, the Majority Tranche A Lenders, the
Majority Tranche B Lenders or all of the Lenders.

          13.04 Rights as a Lender. With respect to its Commitment and the
Loans made by it, each of Citibank, N.A. and Wachovia Bank, National
Association (and any successor acting as Administrative Agent or Collateral
Agent, respectively) in its individual capacity as a Lender hereunder (if
applicable) shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other
Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not acting as the
Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, and the term
"Lender" or "Lenders" shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include
the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent in their individual
capacities. Each of Citibank, N.A. and Wachovia Bank, National Association
(and any successor acting as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent,
respectively) and its affiliates


<PAGE>
                                                                            58



may (without having to account therefor to any Lender) accept deposits from,
lend money to, make investments in and generally engage in any kind of
banking, trust or other business with the Obligors as if it were not acting as
the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, and Citibank,
N.A. and Wachovia Bank, National Association (and any such successor) and its
affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from the Obligors for
services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to
account for the same to the Lenders.

          13.05 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent (to
the extent not reimbursed under Section 14.03 hereof, but without limiting the
obligations of the Borrowers under said Section 14.03 hereof) ratably in
accordance with the aggregate principal amount of the Loans held by the
Lenders (or, if no Loans are at the time outstanding, ratably in accordance
with their respective Commitments), for any and all liabilities, claims,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever (including without
limitation the fees and disbursements of counsel) that may be imposed on,
incurred by or asserted against such Agent arising out of or by reason of any
investigation in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any
of the other Loan Documents or any other documents contemplated by or referred
to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby
(including, without limitation, the costs and expenses that the Borrowers are
obligated to pay under Section 14.03 hereof, but excluding, unless an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, normal administrative costs and
expenses incident to the performance of its agency duties hereunder) or the
enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof or of any such other
documents, provided, that no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing
to the extent they arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
the party to be indemnified as determined by a final, nonappealable judgment
by a court of competent jurisdiction. In no event shall any Loan Party be
liable for any punitive or consequential damages in connection with any of the
Loan Documents. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 13.05 shall
survive the termination of this Agreement, the repayment of the Loans and the
resignation or removal of either Agent.

          13.06 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender agrees
that it has, independently and without reliance on either Agent or the Joint
Lead Arrangers or any other Lender, and based on such documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of the
Obligors and decision to enter into this Agreement and that it will,
independently and without reliance upon either Agent or the Joint Lead
Arrangers or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as
it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own analysis and
decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents. The Agents shall not be required to keep themselves informed
as to the performance or observance by the Obligors of this Agreement or any
other Loan Document or any other document referred to or provided for herein
or therein or to inspect the Properties or books of any Obligor. Except for
notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be
furnished to the Lenders by an Agent hereunder, such Agent shall not have any
duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other
information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of any
Obligor that may come into the possession of such Agent or any of its
affiliates.


<PAGE>
                                                                            59



          13.07 Failure to Act. Except for action expressly required of an
Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document, such Agent shall in all
cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder or thereunder
unless it shall receive further assurances to its satisfaction from the
Lenders of their indemnification obligations under Section 13.05 hereof
against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason
of taking or continuing to take any such action. No provision of this
Agreement shall require either Agent to expend or risk its own funds or
otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties
hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have
reasonable grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or adequate
indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

          13.08 Resignation or Removal of Agents. Either Agent may resign at
any time by giving notice thereof to the Lenders, the other Agent and the
Borrowers, and either Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause
by the Majority Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Majority
Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent, which shall, unless
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (in the case of the
Administrative Agent) be a bank approved by the Borrowers (such approval not
to be unreasonably withheld) that (i) has an office in New York, New York,
(ii) is registered as a "foreign financial institution" with the Ministry of
Finance for purposes of Article 154 of the Mexican Income Tax Law, and (iii)
is a resident for tax purposes of a country with which Mexico shall have
entered into a treaty for the avoidance of double taxation which is in effect.
If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and
shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent's
giving of notice of resignation or the Majority Lenders' removal of the
retiring Agent, then the retiring Agent's resignation shall nonetheless become
effective and (1) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and
obligations hereunder and (2) the Majority Lenders shall perform the duties of
the Agent (and all payments and communications provided to be made by, to or
through such Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly) until
such time as the Majority Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for
above in this paragraph, provided that the Collateral Agent shall continue to
maintain control of any Deposit Collateral for the benefit of the Lenders
until a successor is appointed. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as an
Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon
succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and
duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from
its duties and obligations hereunder and under the Account Control Agreement
and Intercreditor Agreement except to the extent of liability arising from
prior action. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no removal of either Agent shall
be effective until all amounts then due and owing to the removed Agent shall
be paid in full. After any retiring Agent's resignation or removal hereunder
as Agent, the provisions of this Section 13 shall continue in effect for its
benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it
was acting as an Agent.

          13.09 The Joint Lead Arrangers. The Joint Lead Arrangers, in their
capacities as such, shall not have any obligations or liabilities hereunder or
under any other Loan Document.

                                                                            60


          SECTION 14. MISCELLANEOUS.

          14.01 Waiver. No failure on the part of any Loan Party to exercise
and no delay in exercising, and no course of dealing with respect to, any
right, power or privilege under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver
thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or
privilege under any Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The remedies
provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by
law.

          14.02 Notices. (a) All notices, requests, instructions, directions
and other communications provided for herein (including, without limitation,
any modifications of, or waivers, requests or consents under, this Agreement)
shall be given or made in writing (including, without limitation, by telecopy)
delivered, if to any Obligor or any Agent, to its address specified on the
signature pages hereto, and if to any Lender, to its "Address for Notices"
specified opposite its name on Annex 1 hereto; or, as to any party, at such
other address as shall be designated by such party in a notice to the
Administrative Agent and the Borrowers.

          (b) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all such
     communications shall be deemed to have been duly given upon receipt of a
     legible copy thereof, in each case given or addressed as aforesaid,

     Communications Agreement and agrees that Communications (as defined in
     the Communications Agreement) may be made available to such Lender as
     provided in the Communications Agreement, agrees to provide to the
     Administrative Agent, promptly after the date of this Agreement, an
     e-mail address for receipt of each notice to such Lender that
     Communications have been posted on the Platform referred to in the
     Communications Agreement, and agrees that such notice to such Lender of
     such posting shall constitute effective delivery of such Communications
     to such Lender hereunder.

          (c) All notices required by this Agreement to be given to the
     Borrowers may be so given by being delivered, in accordance herewith, to
     Vitro Plan at the address specified beneath its signature hereto.

          14.03 Expenses, Etc. (a) (i) The Borrowers agree to pay or reimburse
each Agent and each Joint Lead Arranger for all of its reasonable and
documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation,
the reasonable fees and expenses of Milbank, Tweed, Hadley & McCloy LLP,
special New York counsel to the Administrative Agent, counsel to the
Collateral Agent, and Ritch, Heather y Mueller, S.C., special Mexican counsel
to the Agents, and Bodman, Longley & Dahling LLP, special counsel to Comerica

or "Majority Tranche B Loan Lenders", or modify in any other manner the number
or percentage of the Lenders required to make any determinations or waive any
rights hereunder or to modify any provision hereof, or amend those provisions
of the Intercreditor Agreement that relate to the sharing or disposition of

rights; and in addition to the foregoing, any modification or supplement of
Section 13 hereof, or of any of the rights or duties of the Administrative
Agent or the Collateral Agent hereunder or under the Intercreditor Agreement
or the Account Control Agreement, shall require the consent of the
Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be. Any such
amendment or waiver shall be binding upon the Lenders, each holder of any of
the Guaranteed Obligations and each Guarantor.

          14.05 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors
and permitted assigns.

          14.06 Assignments and Participations.

          (a) No Obligor may assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder
     or under any of the other Loan Documents without the prior written
     consent of all of the Loan Parties (and any assignment in violation of
     this clause (a) shall be void).

          (b) Each Lender may, with the prior consent of the Administrative
     Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld), assign its Loan or Loans and its
     Commitment or Commitments or any portion thereof; provided, that

               (i) any such partial assignment (other than to another Lender)
          shall be in an amount at least equal to $2,000,000 and increments of
          $1,000,000 in excess thereof;

               (ii) upon each such assignment, the assignor and assignee shall
          deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent a Notice of
          Assignment in substantially the form of Exhibit K hereto (a "Notice
          of Assignment");

               (iii) each such assignee (other than a Mexican Bank) must be
          registered as a "foreign financial institution" with the Ministry of
          Finance in the registry referred to in Article 195 (or any successor
          provision) of the Mexican Income Tax Law and be resident for tax
          purposes of (or the main office of such financial institution, if
          acting through a branch or an agency, must be a resident for tax
          purposes of) a jurisdiction that is party to a treaty for the
          avoidance of double taxation with Mexico which is in effect; and

               (iv) each such assignee shall be an Eligible Assignee; and

     provided, further, that upon execution and delivery by the assignor and
     the assignee to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent of such Notice
     of Assignment, and upon consent thereto to the extent required above, the
     assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment, the obligations,
     rights and benefits of a Lender hereunder holding the


<PAGE>
                                                                            63



     Commitment or Commitments and Loan or Loans (or portion thereof) assigned
     to it and specified in such Notice of Assignment (in addition to the
     Commitment and Loan, if any, theretofore held by such assignee) and the
     assigning Lender shall, to the extent of such assignment, be released
     from the Commitment or Commitments (or portion thereof) so assigned (and
     if so requested by the assignor and the assignee the Borrowers will issue
     and deliver to the assignor and the assignee new Notes reflecting such
     assignment). Upon its receipt of a Notice of Assignment executed by an
     assigning Lender and an assignee together with (except in the case of an
     assignment by a Lender to an Affiliate of such Lender) payment by the
     assignee to the Administrative Agent of an assignment fee of $3,500, the
     Administrative Agent shall (i) promptly accept such Notice of Assignment
     and (ii) on the effective date determined pursuant thereto record the
     information contained therein in the Register (as hereinafter defined)
     and give notice of such acceptance and recordation to the Lenders and the
     Borrowers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
     Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay to any Lender (or any assignee of
     any Lender) any amount under any of Sections 5.01, 5.03, 5.04 or 5.05
     hereof greater than the amount the Borrowers would have been obligated to
     pay to such Lender if such Lender had not made any assignment of its
     rights under this Agreement, unless such assignment is made at a time
     when the circumstances giving rise to such greater payments did not
     exist.

          (c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain at the address of the
     Administrative Agent referred to in Section 14.02 hereof a copy of each
     Notice of Assignment delivered to it and a register (the "Register") for
     the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the
     principal amounts of the Loans owing to each Lender from time to time.
     Each Obligor and the Loan Parties shall treat, and shall be entitled to
     treat, each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of
     a Loan or other obligations hereunder as the owner thereof for all
     purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.
     Any assignment of any Loan or other obligation hereunder shall be
     effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made
     in the Register. The Register shall be available for inspection by the
     Borrowers or any Loan Party at any reasonable time and from time to time
     upon reasonable prior notice.

          (d) A Lender may, in accordance with applicable law, sell or agree
     to sell to one or more other Persons (each a "Participant") a
     participation in all or any part of the Loan or Loans held by it, or in
     its Commitment or Commitments, provided, that such Participant shall not
     have any rights or obligations under this Agreement (the Participant's
     rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those
     set forth in the agreements executed by such Lender in favor of the
     Participant) and, provided, further, that such Participant be registered
     as a "foreign financial institution" with the Ministry of Finance for
     purposes of Article 197 (or any successor provision) of the Mexican
     Income Tax Law and be domiciled at a country with which Mexico has
     entered into a treaty for the avoidance of double taxation which is in
     effect. All amounts payable by the Borrowers to any Lender under Section
     5 hereof in respect of any Loan held by it, and its Commitment, shall be
     determined as if such Lender had not sold or agreed to sell any
     participations in such Loan and Commitment, and as if such Lender were
     funding such Loan and Commitment in the same way that it is funding the
     portion



<PAGE>

                                                                            64


     of such Loan and Commitment in which no participations have been sold. In
     no event shall a Lender that sells a participation agree with the
     Participant to take or refrain from taking any action hereunder except
     that such Lender may agree with the Participant that it will not, without
     the consent of the Participant, agree to (i) increase or extend the term
     of such Lender's Commitment, (ii) extend the date fixed for the payment
     of principal of or interest on the related Loan or any portion of any fee
     hereunder payable to the Participant, (iii) reduce the amount of any such
     payment of principal, (iv) reduce the rate at which interest is payable
     thereon to a level below the rate at which the Participant is entitled to
     receive such interest or (v) release the Deposit Collateral (except in
     accordance with Section 12 hereof).

          (e) In addition to the assignments and participations permitted
     under the foregoing provisions of this Section 14.06, any Lender may
     (without notice to or consent of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent
     or any other Lender and without payment of any fee) assign and pledge all
     or any portion of its Loans and Notes to (i) any Federal Reserve Bank as
     collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors of
     the Federal Reserve System and any Operating Circular issued by such
     Federal Reserve Bank and (ii) to any of its Affiliates or other Lenders,
     provided that such Lender shall simultaneously advise the Borrowers and
     the Administrative Agent of such assignment or pledge. No such assignment
     shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder.

          (f) A Lender may furnish any information concerning the Obligors
     obtained by such Lender hereunder from time to time to prospective
     assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and
     participants), provided, that such Lender shall advise such prospective
     assignee or participant that such information is being provided on the
     understanding that it is subject to the provisions set forth in Section
     14.19 hereof.

          14.07 Survival. The obligations of the Borrowers under Sections
5.01, 5.04, 5.05 and 14.03 (subject to the limitations under Section 14.03(b))
hereof, the obligations of the Lenders under Section 13.05 hereof and the
provisions of Section 12 hereof, shall survive the repayment of the Loans and
the termination of the Commitments (in the case of the provisions of Section
12 hereof, until payment of all amounts under the Tranche C Loan Agreement)
and, in the case of any Lender that may assign any interest in its Commitments
or Loans hereunder, shall survive, in the case of any event or circumstance
that occurred prior to the effective date of such assignment, the making of
such assignment, notwithstanding that such assigning Lender may cease to be a
"Lender" hereunder. In addition, each representation and warranty made, or
deemed to be made by a notice of any Loan, herein or pursuant hereto shall
survive the making of such representation and warranty.

          14.08 Captions. The table of contents and captions and section
headings appearing herein are included solely for convenience of reference and
are not intended to affect the interpretation of any provision of this
Agreement.

          14.09 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same
instrument and any of

                                                                            65



the parties hereto may execute this Agreement by signing any such counterpart.
A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties hereto shall
be lodged with each Borrower and each Agent.

          14.10 Governing Law. This Agreement and the rights and obligations
of the parties hereunder shall be governed by, and construed in accordance
with, the law of the State of New York.

          14.11 Jurisdiction, Service of Process and Venue.

          (a) Each of the parties hereto agrees that any suit, action or
     proceeding with respect to this Agreement or any of the other Loan
     Documents or any judgment entered by any court in respect thereof may be
     brought in the United States District Court for the Southern District of
     New York or the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New
     York, and in the courts of its own corporate domicile, in respect of
     actions brought against it as a defendant, and irrevocably submits to the
     jurisdiction of each such court for the purpose of any such suit, action,
     proceeding or judgment.

          (b) Each Obligor hereby irrevocably appoints CT Corporation System
     (the "Process Agent"), with an office on the date hereof at 111 8th
     Avenue, New York, New York 10011, as its agent and true and lawful
     attorney-in-fact in its name, place and stead to accept on behalf of such
     Obligor and its Property and revenues service of copies of the summons
     and complaint and any other process which may be served in any such suit,
     action or proceeding brought in the State of New York, and each Obligor
     agrees that the failure of the Process Agent to give any notice of any
     such service of process to such Obligor shall not impair or affect the
     validity of such service or, to the extent permitted by applicable law,
     the enforcement of any judgment based thereon. For the avoidance of
     doubt, the appointment described in this Section 14.11(b) shall be
     governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of
     New York.

          (c) Nothing herein shall in any way be deemed to limit the ability
     of any Loan Party to serve any such process or summonses in any other
     manner permitted by applicable law.

          (d) Each Obligor hereby irrevocably waives to the fullest extent
     permitted by law any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the
     laying of the venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or
     relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents brought in
     the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or
     the Supreme Court of the State of New York and hereby further irrevocably
     waives to the fullest extent permitted by law any claim that any such
     suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in
     an inconvenient forum and any right to which it may be entitled on
     account of place of residence or domicile. A final judgment (in respect
     of which time for all appeals has elapsed) in any such suit, action or
     proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in any court to the
     jurisdiction of which any Obligor is or may be subject, by suit upon
     judgment.

                                                                            66



          14.12 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OBLIGOR AND EACH OF THE LOAN
PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR
PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

          14.13 Waiver of Immunity. To the extent that any Obligor may be or
become entitled to claim for itself or its Property or revenues any immunity
on the ground of sovereignty or the like from suit, court jurisdiction,
attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of a judgment or
execution of a judgment, and to the extent that in any such jurisdiction there
may be attributed such an immunity (whether or not claimed), each Obligor
hereby irrevocably agrees not to claim and hereby irrevocably waives such
immunity with respect to its obligations under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents.

          14.14 Judgment Currency. This is an international loan transaction
in which the specification of Dollars and payment in New York City is of the
essence, and the obligations of the Obligors under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents to each Loan Party (in this Section 14.14 called an
"Entitled Person") to make payment in Dollars shall not be discharged or
satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or
converted into any other currency or in another place except to the extent
that on the Business Day following receipt of any sum adjudged to be so due in
the judgment currency such Entitled Person may in accordance with normal
banking procedures purchase, and transfer to New York City, Dollars in the
amount originally due to such Entitled Person with the judgment currency. If
for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert
a sum due hereunder in Dollars into another currency (in this Section 14.14
called the "judgment currency"), the rate of exchange that shall be applied
shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the
Entitled Person could purchase such Dollars at New York, New York with the
judgment currency on the Business Day next succeeding the day on which such
judgment is rendered. Each Obligor hereby, as a separate obligation and
notwithstanding any such judgment, agree to indemnify such Entitled Person
against, and to pay each Entitled Person on demand, in Dollars, the amount (if
any) by which the sum originally due to such Entitled Person in Dollars
hereunder exceeds the amount of the Dollars purchased and transferred as
aforesaid. Each Entitled Person, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding
any such judgment, agrees to pay to any Obligor hereby on demand, in Dollars,
the amount (if any) by which the amount of the Dollars purchased and
transferred as aforesaid exceeds the sum originally due to such Obligor in
Dollars hereunder.

          14.15 Use of English Language. This Agreement has been negotiated
and executed in the English language. All certificates, reports, notices and
other documents and communications given or delivered pursuant to this
Agreement (including, without limitation, any modifications or supplements
hereto) shall be in the English language, or accompanied by a certified
English translation thereof, other than any document originally issued in a
language other than English.

          14.16 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents
and the agreement referred to in Section 2.03 hereof constitute the entire
agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and
thereof.

          14.17 Severability. If any provision hereof is found by a court to
be invalid or unenforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law
the parties agree that such invalidity or unenforceability shall not impair
the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof.

          14.18 Right of Set-off. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is
hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or
special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any
time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender or such
Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Obligor against any and
all of the obligations of such Obligor now or hereafter existing under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents held by such Lender, whether or not
such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such
obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the
Borrowers after any such set-off and application, provided, that the failure
to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and
application. The rights of each Lender and its Affiliates under this Section
are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation,
other rights of set-off) that such Lender and its Affiliates may have.

          14.19 Confidentiality. Each Lender agrees to hold all Confidential
Information obtained pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or any other
Loan Document in accordance with its customary procedure for handling such
information of this nature and in accordance with safe and sound banking
practices, provided, that nothing herein shall prevent any Lender from
disclosing such information (i) to any other Loan Party, (ii) upon the order
of any court or administrative agency or otherwise to the extent required by
statute, rule, regulation or judicial process, (iii) to bank examiners or upon
the request or demand of any other regulatory agency or authority, (iv) which
had been publicly disclosed other than as a result of a disclosure by any Loan
Party prohibited by this Agreement, (v) in connection with any litigation to
which any one or more of the Loan Parties is a party, or in connection with
the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under the Loan Documents, (vi) to such
Loan Party's legal counsel and independent auditors and accountants, and (vii)
subject to provisions substantially similar to those contained in this Section
14.19, to any actual or proposed participant or assignee; provided, that the
Obligors and the Loan Parties hereby agree that the Obligors and the Loan
Parties (and each of their respective employees, representatives, or agents)
are permitted to disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any
kind, the structure and tax aspects of the transactions contemplated herein,
and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that
relate to such structure and tax aspects. In this regard, the parties
acknowledge and agree that any disclosure of the structure or tax aspects of
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not limited in any way by
an express or implied understanding or agreement, oral or written (whether or
not such understanding or agreement is legally binding). The foregoing is
intended solely to comply with the presumption set forth in Treasury
Regulation 1.6011-4T(b)(3)(iv) and is not intended to permit the disclosure of
any information to the extent such disclosure is not

required in order to avoid the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
being treated as a "reportable transaction" within the meaning of Treasury
Regulation 1.6011-4T(b).

          14.20 No Fiduciary Relationship. The Obligors acknowledge that the
Lenders have no fiduciary relationship with, or fiduciary duty to, any Obligor
or any Affiliate or Subsidiary thereof arising out of or in connection with
this Agreement or the Notes or the other Loan Documents, and the relationship
between each Lender and the Obligors is solely that of creditor and debtor.
This Agreement does not create a joint venture among the parties.
