      For greater certainty, under no circumstances shall RCI be obligated to

limitation, services relating to any data centre operated and maintained by RCI.

2.    Fees

      In consideration of the services to be rendered by RCI hereunder, RCI
shall be paid a monthly fee during each year that this Agreement remains in
effect, determined as set forth below:

      (a)   in respect of the 1991 and 1992 calendar years, RCI shall be paid a
            monthly fee of $666,667, for a total annual fee of $8,000,004 per
            year; and

      (b)   in respect of each calendar year subsequent to 1992, RCI shall be
            paid a monthly fee determined as follows:

            (i)   not less than 30 days prior to the commencement of each such
                  calendar year RCI and the independent directors of RCMCI
                  serving on its audit committee (the "Independent Directors")
                  shall use their reasonable best efforts to determine the
                  monthly fee that will be payable to RCI hereunder during that
                  calendar year;

            (ii)  in determining the fee that will be payable to RCI in each
                  calendar year as described in clause (i) above, RCI and the
                  Independent Directors will take into account such factors as
                  they consider appropriate, including:

                  (A)   the result obtained by multiplying (x) the budgeted
                        consolidated operating income (before taxes, interest
                        and depreciation) of RCMCI for that year divided by the
                        budgeted consolidated operating income (before taxes,



<PAGE>
                                     - 6 -


                        interest and depreciation) of all of RCI's operating
                        subsidiaries for that year, by (y) 115% of RCI's
                        budgeted consolidated operating expenses (other than
                        taxes, interest and depreciation) for that year, in each
                        case as reflected in the then most recent budgets of
                        RCMCI and RCI, respectively;

                  (B)   the time and resources of RCI and its personnel
                        committed to the requirements of RCMCI and its
                        subsidiaries hereunder during the then current year as
                        compared with the time and resources of RCI and its
                        personnel committed to the requirements of the other
                        operating subsidiaries of RCI during that year; and

                  (C)   any special activities and efforts made by RCI and its
                        personnel during the then current year principally for
                        the benefit of RCMCI and its subsidiaries; and

            (iii) notwithstanding clause (ii) above, in no event will the annual
                  fee payable to RCI hereunder in any such calendar year be less
                  than:

                  (A)   for 1993, the result obtained by (x) multiplying
                        $8,000,004 by the percentage increase in the Canadian
                        Consumer Price Index (all items) as reported by
                        Statistics Canada (the "CPI Index") between January 1,
                        1991 and December 31, 1991, and (y) multiplying the
                        result obtained in (x) by the percentage increase in the
                        CPI Index between January 1, 1992 and December 31, 1992;
                        and

                  (B)   for each year subsequent to 1993, the result obtained by
                        multiplying the fee paid to RCI hereunder during the

<PAGE>
                                     - 7 -


                        preceding year by the percentage increase in the CPI
                        Index between January 1 and December 31 of that year.

For greater certainty, in no event will any monthly fee payable to RCI hereunder
determined by agreement between RCI and the Independent Directors be adjusted to
reflect variations between the budgeted operating income of RCMCI and the
operating subsidiaries of RCI and the actual operating income of RCMCI and the
operating subsidiaries of RCI for any period or to reflect variations between
the budgeted consolidated operating expenses of RCI and the actual consolidated
operating expenses of RCI for any period.

3.    Special Provisions for fees

      (a)   In the event that RCI and the Independent Directors are unable to
            agree on the fee that will be payable to RCI hereunder in respect of
            any calendar year as contemplated in subparagraph 2(b) above, RCI
            shall be paid a monthly fee determined as set forth in clause
            2(b)(iii) above during that year unless and until RCI and the
            Independent Directors otherwise agree.

      (b)   If, in the circumstances described in subparagraph 3(a) above, the
            parties are unable to determine the fee that will be payable to RCI
            hereunder in respect of any month during any calendar year because
            information respecting the percentage increase in the CPI Index
            between January 1 and December 31 of the preceding year (the "CPI
            Information") is not yet available from Statistics Canada, RCI shall
            be paid a monthly fee equal to the monthly fee paid to RCI during
            the preceding year until the CPI Information becomes available,
            following which (i) all further monthly payments made to RCI
            hereunder during the relevant year will be varied in the manner
            contemplated in clause 2(b)(iii) above, and (ii) within 15 days of
            the CPI Information becoming available, RCI shall be paid an
            additional amount sufficient to compensate RCI for the deficiency,
            if any, in the fees theretofore paid to RCI hereunder during that
            year plus interest


<PAGE>
                                     - 8 -


            on the amount of each monthly deficiency calculated from the last
            business day of each relevant month until the date such payment is
            made at a rate per annum equal to the prime rate of The
            Toronto-Dominion Bank during such period, adjusted on a daily basis
            for changes in that rate, plus 2%.

4.    Transitional Provisions

      The parties hereby agree that, effective as of and from January 1991, this
Agreement replaces and supersedes in its entirety the amended and restated
management services agreement (the "Prior Management Agreement") made as of
April 30, 1990 between RCI and RCMI and that, accordingly, all fees payable to
RCI hereunder in respect of the 1991 calendar year shall be calculated and paid
in accordance with the provisions hereof, notwithstanding the actual date of
execution of this Agreement and notwithstanding the provisions of the Prior
Management Agreement.

5.    Identifiable Expenses

      In the event that during the term of this Agreement RCI incurs any
identifiable expenses exclusively to benefit RCMCI or any of its subsidiaries in
respect of the services rendered by RCI hereunder, RCI shall be entitled to
obtain reimbursement from RCMCI of such expenses, together with an
administration charge equal to 15% of the amount of such expenses, upon
providing RCMCI with an invoice setting forth particulars of the expenses for
which RCI is claiming reimbursement hereunder. Such invoices shall be submitted
to RCMCI by RCI on a monthly basis. For greater certainty, the expenses
contemplated in this paragraph 5 shall include, without limitation, travel and
living costs charged in accordance with then applicable policies of RCI.

6.    Additional Services

      From time to time hereafter, RCMCI may submit to RCI a request that RCI
provide to RCMCI or any of its subsidiaries services in addition to those
contemplated in paragraph 1 above. RCI may agree or not agree to provide such
services


<PAGE>
                                     - 9 -


in its sole discretion. In the event that RCI agrees to provide such services in
any circumstance other than as described in paragraph 7 below, RCI shall be
entitled to obtain reimbursement of the cost to RCI of providing these services
(including, without limitation, RCI's internal costs such as the cost to RCI of
its personnel performing the relevant services) together with an administration
charge equal to 15% of the amount of those costs, upon providing RCMCI with an
invoice setting forth particulars of the costs for which RCI is claiming
reimbursement hereunder. Such invoices shall be submitted to RCMCI by RCI on a
monthly basis.

7.    Competitive Bids for Additional Services

      Notwithstanding paragraph 6 above, if at any time during the term of this
Agreement RCMCI or any of its subsidiaries wishes to obtain managerial or other
advisory services in addition to those contemplated in paragraph 1 above and
wishes to obtain competitive bids for the provision of those services, then:

      (a)   RCI shall have the right (but not the obligation) to participate in
            such bidding process on substantially the same terms as all other
            third parties invited to submit bids to RCMCI or its relevant
            subsidiary; and

      (b)   if RCI elects to submit a bid to RCMCI or its relevant subsidiary
            and RCI's bid is technically acceptable to RCMCI or such subsidiary,
            as the case may be, acting reasonably, RCMCI or such subsidiary, as
            the case may be, will be bound to accept RCI's bid unless it is on
            terms and conditions that are materially less advantageous to RCMCI
            or such subsidiary from a financial point of view than other
            technically acceptable bids submitted to RCMCI or such subsidiary in
            accordance with the bidding process established by it.

8.    Payment

      The fees payable to RCI pursuant to paragraphs 2, 3, 7 and 9 and the
invoices submitted to RCMCI by RCI pursuant to paragraphs 5 and 6 above shall be
paid


<PAGE>
                                     - 10 -


on the last business day of each month. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence,
if and to the extent that payment of any of the fees described in paragraph 2,
3, 7 and 9 would result in RCMCI or any of its subsidiaries being in default
under any agreement with a bank or similar lending institution, RCMCI may defer
payment thereof until such time, but only until such time, as the payment would
not result in RCMCI being in default under such agreement. Any payment to be
made to RCI as set forth above that is not paid when due (including, without
limitation, pursuant to the deferment contemplated in the preceding sentence)
shall bear interest from the date such payment is due until the date such
payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the prime rate of The
Toronto-Dominion Bank during such period, adjusted on a daily basis for changes
in that rate, plus 2%.

9.    RCI Guarantees

      From time to time hereafter, RCMCI may submit to RCI a request that RCI
guarantee the obligations of RCMCI or any of its subsidiaries under one or more
credit facilities or in respect of one or more of their other financial
obligations. RCI may agree or not agree to guarantee such obligations in its
sole discretion. In the event that RCI agrees to guarantee any of such
obligations, RCMCI shall pay a monthly guarantee fee to RCI in an amount equal
to 1/12 of 2% of the total amount guaranteed by RCI.

10.   RCI Loans

      From time to time hereafter, RCMCI may submit to RCI a request that RCI or
one of its subsidiaries loan funds to RCMCI or any of its subsidiaries. RCI may
agree or not agree to comply with such a request in its sole discretion. In the
event that RCI agrees to so loan funds to RCMCI or any of its subsidiaries,
either directly or through a subsidiary of RCI, the terms of repayment of the
principal sum advanced shall be as agreed to by RCI and RCMCI or the relevant
subsidiary, as the case may be, at the time of such advance. In the event that
funds so loaned to RCMCI or the relevant subsidiary constitute senior secured
debt (as determined by RCI and RCMCI, acting reasonably, at the time of advance
of funds), the unpaid amount of the principal sum so


<PAGE>
                                     - 11 -


advanced shall bear interest at an annual rate equal to the Cost of Funds of RCI
during the relevant period plus 2%. For the purposes hereof, "Cost of Funds"
means the cost of funds to RCI as quoted to RCI by its bankers as such cost of
funds may fluctuate from time to time, as notified to RCMCI by RCI. All other
loans made to RCMCI or any of its subsidiaries in accordance with this paragraph
10 shall bear interest at a rate determined by RCI and RCMCI at the time of
advance of funds. Interest on amounts so loaned to RCMCI or its subsidiary shall
be paid by RCMCI or that subsidiary, as the case may be, monthly in arrears on
the last business day of each month in Toronto, Ontario. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, this paragraph 10 shall not apply to funds loaned to RCMCI by RCI
pursuant to the provisions of a credit agreement to be entered into between RCI
and RCMCI providing for, among other things, the establishment by RCI of a $100
million revolving credit facility in favour of RCMCL.

11.   Responsibility

      RCI assumes no responsibility to RCMCI hereunder other than as expressly
set forth herein. RCI shall not be liable to RCMCI hereunder except where RCI
has acted in bad faith or has been grossly negligent in the performance of its
obligations hereunder.

12.   Term

      This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until December 31,
1992 and thereafter shall be automatically renewed for successive terms of one
year each unless either party notifies the other in writing at least six months
before the end of the initial term, or any renewal term then in effect, of its
intention not to have the term extended beyond the initial term or renewal term
then in effect, as the case may be. Rights and obligations of either party
accrued hereunder at the time of termination of this Agreement shall not be
affected by such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement
shall have no force or effect unless and until it is approved by the Independent
Directors at a meeting duly called for that purpose and a certified copy of


<PAGE>

the resolution of the Independent Directors so approving this Agreement, in a
form acceptable to RCI, acting reasonably, has been provided to RCI.
