SECTION 2. REVOLVING CREDIT LOAN AND LETTERS OF CREDIT

        2.1     THE COMMITMENT.

               (a)    COMMITTED AMOUNT. Subject to the terms and conditions
        herein set forth, Lenders agree, during the Commitment Period: (i) to
        extend to Borrower or any Qualified Borrower a revolving line of credit;
        and (ii) to participate in Letters of Credit issued by the Letter of
        Credit Issuer for the account of Borrower or any Qualified Borrower.

               (b)    LIMITATION ON BORROWINGS AND RE-BORROWINGS.
        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, Lenders shall
        not be required to advance any Borrowing, Rollover, or cause the
        issuance of any Letter of Credit hereunder if:

                      (i) after giving effect to such Borrowing, Rollover, or
               issuance of such Letter of Credit: (A) the Principal Obligation

               Credit Liability would exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit;

                      (ii) The limited partners of Borrower have given notice,
               under Section 11.2 of the Partnership Agreement or otherwise, of
               their intent to remove the General Partner as the general partner
               of Borrower; or

               Conversions to Reference Rate Loans shall be permitted in the

        otherwise accelerated the Obligation or exercised other rights that
        terminate the Commitments under SECTION 11.2 hereof.

               (c)    EXCLUSION EVENTS. If any of the following events (each, an
        "EXCLUSION EVENT") shall occur with respect to any Included Investor or,
        if applicable, the Sponsor, Responsible Party, or Credit Provider of
        such Included Investor (such Investor hereinafter referred to as a
        "DEFAULTING INVESTOR"), then such Investor shall no longer be an
        Included Investor:

                      (i) it shall: (A) apply for or consent to the appointment

               personal, partnership, limited liability company, corporate or
               trust action, as applicable, for the purpose of effecting any of
               the foregoing;

               shall be rendered against such Person, and such judgment or
               judgments shall not be satisfied or discharged at least ten (10)
               days prior to the date on which any of its assets could be
               lawfully sold to satisfy such judgment;

                      (iv) such Investor shall repudiate, challenge, or declare
               unenforceable its obligation to make contributions to the capital
               of Borrower or Guarantor pursuant to its Capital Commitment or a
               Capital Call Notice, or shall otherwise disaffirm any material
               provision of its Subscription Agreement, the Articles of
               Incorporation, or the Partnership Agreement relating to Capital
               Contributions;

                      (v) such Investor shall fail to make a contribution to the
               capital of Borrower or Guarantor when required pursuant to a
               Capital Call Notice, subject to any applicable notice or cure
               periods, or shall otherwise be in default under its Subscription
               Agreement, the Articles of Incorporation, or the Partnership
               Agreement, following any applicable notice requirements or cure
               periods;

                      (vi) any representation or warranty made under any Loan
               Documents executed by such Person shall prove to be untrue or
               inaccurate in any material respect, as of the date on which such
               representation or warranty is made, and such Person shall fail to
               cure the adverse effect of the failure of such representation or
               warranty within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof is
               delivered by Administrative Agent to Borrower and to such
               Investor;

                      (vii) such Investor shall transfer its Partnership
               Interest in Borrower, or its Capital Stock in Guarantor, in
               violation of this Credit Agreement;

                      (viii) default shall occur in the performance by it of any
               of the covenants or agreements contained in any of the Loan
               Documents executed by it (except as otherwise specifically
               addressed in this SECTION 2.1(c), in which case no grace period
               beyond any provided for herein shall apply) and such default
               shall continue uncured to the satisfaction of Administrative
               Agent for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice
               thereof has been given by Administrative Agent to Borrower and to
               such Investor;

                      (ix) in the case of each Rated Investor, it shall fail to
               maintain the Applicable Requirement for such Investor required in
               the definition of Applicable Requirement in SECTION 1 hereof;

                      (x) in the case of an Investor that is not a Rated
               Investor, the occurrence of any circumstance or event which, in
               the reasonable discretion of Administrative Agent: (A) is
               determined to be material and adverse to the financial condition
               or business operations of such Investor; (B) could reasonably be
               expected to materially impair the ability of such


                                       20
<PAGE>

               Investor to fulfill its obligations under the Loan Documents
               executed by it; or (C) could reasonably be expected to impair,
               impede, or jeopardize the obligation and the liability of such
               Investor to fulfill its obligations under its Subscription
               Agreement, the Articles of Incorporation, or the Partnership
               Agreement; or

                      (xi) such Investor shall fail, within ten (10) days after
               the required date set forth in the Investor Letter, to deliver
               the financial information to Borrower or Guarantor, required by
               such Investor's Investor Letter, in accordance with the terms
               thereof.

               (d)    MANDATORY PREPAYMENT.

                      (i) EXCESS LOANS OUTSTANDING. If, on any day, the
               Principal Obligation exceeds the Available Commitment, then the
               Credit Parties shall pay on demand such excess to Administrative
               Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, in immediately available funds
               (except to the extent any such excess is addressed by SECTION
               2.1(d)(ii)): (A) promptly on demand (but in no event later than
               two (2) Business Days), to the extent such funds are available in
               the Subscription Account or any other account maintained by
               Credit Parties; and (B) within ten (10) Business Days of demand
               to the extent that it is necessary for a Credit Party to issue a
               Capital Call Notice to fund such required payment (and Credit
               Parties shall issue such Capital Call Notices during such time,
               and shall pay such excess immediately after the Capital
               Contributions relating to such Capital Call Notice are received);
               provided that the amount of such excess shall be paid to
               Administrative Agent concurrently with the creation of such
               excess if it results from any willful act of any Credit Party;

                      (ii) EXCESS LETTERS OF CREDIT OUTSTANDING. If any excess
               calculated pursuant to SECTION 2.1(d)(i) is attributable to
               undrawn Letters of Credit, Credit Parties (or the applicable
               Qualified Borrower) shall pay such excess to Administrative
               Agent, when required pursuant to the terms of SECTION 2.1(d)(i)
               for deposit in a segregated interest-bearing cash collateral
               account, as security for such portion of the Obligation. Unless
               otherwise required by law, upon: (i) a change in circumstances
               such that the Principal Obligation no longer exceeds the
               Available Commitment; or (ii) the full and final payment of the
               Obligation, Administrative Agent shall return to Credit Parties
               or the applicable Qualified Borrower any amounts remaining in
               said cash collateral account.

        2.2    REVOLVING CREDIT COMMITMENT. Subject to the terms and conditions
herein set forth, each Lender severally agrees, during the Commitment Period, to
make Loans to Borrower or any Qualified Borrower at any time and from time to
time in an aggregate principal amount up to such Lender's Commitment at any such
time; provided, however, that, after making such Loans: (a) such Lender's Pro
Rata Share of the Principal Obligation would not exceed such Lender's
Commitment; and (b) the Principal Obligation would not exceed the Available
Commitment. Subject to the foregoing limitation, Borrower or any Qualified
Borrower may borrow, repay without penalty or premium, and re-borrow hereunder,
during the Commitment Period. Each Borrowing pursuant to this SECTION 2.2 shall
be made ratably by Lenders in proportion to such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the
Available Commitment. No Lender shall be obligated to fund any Loan if the
interest rate applicable thereto under SECTION 2.6(a) hereof would exceed the
Maximum Rate in effect with respect to such Loan.


                                       21
<PAGE>

        2.3    MANNER OF BORROWING. Borrower shall give Administrative Agent
notice of the date of each requested Borrowing hereunder, which notice may be by
telephone, if confirmed in writing, telex, facsimile, or other written
communication (a "REQUEST FOR BORROWING"), and which notice shall be irrevocable
and effective upon receipt by Administrative Agent. Each Request for Borrowing
shall be furnished to Administrative Agent, no later than 11:00 a.m. (San
Francisco time): (a) at least three (3) LIBOR Banking Days prior to the
requested date of the funding of a LIBOR Loan; and (b) at least one (1) Business
Day prior to the requested date of the funding of a Reference Rate Loan; and
must specify: (i) the amount of such Borrowing; (ii) whether such Borrowing
shall be a LIBOR Loan or a Reference Rate Loan; and (iii) the Interest Period
therefor in the case of a LIBOR Loan; and (iv) the name of the applicable
Qualified Borrower, if any. Any Request for Borrowing received by Administrative
Agent after 11:00 a.m. (San Francisco time) shall be deemed to have been given
by Borrower on the next succeeding LIBOR Banking Day, in the case of a LIBOR
Loan, or the next succeeding Business Day, in the case of a Reference Rate Loan.

               (a)    REQUEST FOR BORROWING. Each Request for Borrowing shall be
        in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT C (with blanks appropriately
        completed in conformity herewith) and shall be deemed to constitute a
        representation and warranty by Borrower that:

                      (i) The representations and warranties set forth in
               Section 8 hereof are true and correct in all material respects on
               and as of the date of such Request for Borrowing, with the same
               force and effect as if made on and as of such date (except to the
               extent of changes in facts or circumstances that have been
               disclosed to Lenders and do not constitute an Event of Default or
               a Potential Default under this Credit Agreement or any other Loan
               Document);

                      (ii) No Event of Default or, to its knowledge, Potential
               Default exists and is continuing at such date; and

                      (iii) After giving effect to such Borrowing the Principal
               Obligation will not exceed the Available Commitment as of such
               date.

               Each Request for Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on
        Borrower and the applicable Qualified Borrower, and Borrower and, if
        applicable, the Qualified Borrower, shall indemnify Lenders against any
        cost, loss, or expense incurred by Lenders, or any of them, as a result
        of any failure to fulfill, on or before the date specified in the
        Request for Borrowing, the conditions to such Borrowing set forth
        herein, including, without limitation, any cost, loss, or expense
        incurred by reason of the liquidation or redeployment of the deposits or
        other funds acquired by Lenders, or any of them, to fund the Borrowing
        to be made by Lenders as a part of such Borrowing when such Borrowing,
        as a result of such failure, is not made on such date. A certificate of
        Administrative Agent setting forth the amount of any such cost, loss or
        expense, and the basis for the determination thereof and the calculation
        thereof, shall be delivered to Borrower and the applicable Qualified
        Borrower and shall, in the absence of a manifest error, be conclusive
        and binding. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in
        this SECTION 2.3, Borrower and the applicable Qualified Borrower, shall
        not be required to indemnify Lenders against any costs, loss or expenses
        incurred by Lenders, or any of them, as a result of the liquidation or
        redeployment of funds due to Borrower's failure to fulfill, on or


                                       22
<PAGE>

        before the date specified for a Reference Rate Borrowing, the conditions
        to such Borrowing set forth herein.

               (b)    REQUEST FOR CURRENT RATES. Prior to making a Request for
        Borrowing, Borrower may (without specifying whether the anticipated
        Borrowing shall be a Reference Rate Loan or LIBOR Loan) request that
        Administrative Agent provide it with the most recent Reference Rate and
        Adjusted LIBOR Rate available to Lenders. Administrative Agent shall
        endeavor to provide such quoted rates to Borrower within two (2)
        Business Days after such request, provided, however, that Administrative
        Agent's failure to timely provide such rates shall not relieve Borrower
        or any Qualified Borrower of its obligations hereunder.

               (c)    ROLLOVERS. No later than 11:00 a.m. (San Francisco time)
        at least three (3) LIBOR Banking Days prior to the termination of each
        Interest Period related to a LIBOR Loan, Borrower or any applicable
        Qualified Borrower shall give Administrative Agent written notice (which
        notice may be via fax) substantially in the form of EXHIBIT E attached
        hereto (the "ROLLOVER NOTICE") whether it desires to renew such LIBOR
        Loan. The Rollover Notice shall also specify the length of the Interest
        Period selected by Borrower or a Qualified Borrower with respect to such
        Rollover. Each Rollover Notice shall be irrevocable and effective upon
        notification thereof to Administrative Agent. If Borrower or a Qualified
        Borrower fails to timely give Administrative Agent the Rollover Notice
        with respect to any LIBOR Loan, Borrower or the applicable Qualified
        Borrower shall be deemed to have elected the Reference Rate as the
        Interest Option with respect to such Loan commencing on the expiration
        of the preceding Interest Period.

               (d)    CONVERSIONS. Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower
        shall have the right, with respect to: (i) any Reference Rate Loan, on
        any LIBOR Banking Day (a "LIBOR CONVERSION DATE"), to convert such
        Reference Rate Loan to a LIBOR Loan; and (ii) any LIBOR Loan, on any
        Business Day (a "REFERENCE RATE CONVERSION DATE") to convert such LIBOR
        Loan to a Reference Rate Loan, provided, however, that Borrower shall,
        on such Reference Rate Conversion Date, make the payments required by
        SECTION 4.5 hereof; in either case, by giving Administrative Agent
        written notice substantially in the form of EXHIBIT E attached hereto (a
        "CONVERSION NOTICE") of such selection no later than 11:00 a.m. (San
        Francisco time) at least: (1) three (3) LIBOR Banking Days prior to such
        LIBOR Conversion Date; or (2) one (1) Business Day prior to such
        Reference Rate Conversion Date. Each Conversion Notice shall be
        irrevocable and effective upon notification thereof to Administrative
        Agent.

               (e)    TRANCHES. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
        contained herein, no more than eight (8) LIBOR Loans may be outstanding
        hereunder at any one time during the Commitment Period.

               (f)    AGENT NOTIFICATION OF LENDERS. Administrative Agent shall
        promptly notify each Lender (and will use good faith efforts to make
        such notification on the day such notice is timely received from
        Borrower) of receipt of a Request for Borrowing, a Conversion Notice or
        a Rollover Notice, the amount of the Borrowing and such Lender's Pro
        Rata Share thereof, the date the Borrowing is to be made, the Interest
        Option selected, the Interest Period selected, if applicable, and the
        applicable rate of interest.


                                       23
<PAGE>

        2.4    MINIMUM LOAN AMOUNTS. Each LIBOR Rate Loan shall be in an
aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than
$1,000,000, and each Reference Rate Loan shall be in an aggregate amount that is
an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $500,000, provided, however,
that a Reference Rate Loan may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the
entire unused balance of the total Commitments or that is required to finance
the reimbursement of a Letter of Credit under SECTION 2.8(c).

        2.5    FUNDING. Each Lender shall make the proceeds of its Pro Rata
Share of each Borrowing available to Administrative Agent at the appropriate
Funding Account for the account of Borrower or a Qualified Borrower no later
than 9:00 a.m. (San Francisco time) on the date specified in the Request for
Borrowing as the borrowing date, in immediately available funds, and, upon
fulfillment of all applicable conditions set forth herein, Administrative Agent
shall deposit such proceeds in immediately available funds in Borrower's or in
the applicable Qualified Borrower's account maintained with Administrative Agent
not later than 11:00 a.m. (San Francisco time) on the borrowing date or, if
requested by Borrower in the Request for Borrowing, shall wire-transfer such
funds as requested on or before such time. The failure of any Lender to advance
the proceeds of its Pro Rata Share of any Borrowing required to be advanced
hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to advance the
proceeds of its Pro Rata Share of any Borrowing required to be advanced
hereunder. Absent contrary written notice from a Lender, Administrative Agent
may assume that each Lender has made its Pro Rata Share of the requested
Borrowing available to Administrative Agent on the applicable borrowing date,
and Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption (but is not
required to), make available to Borrower or a Qualified Borrower a corresponding
amount. If a Lender fails to make its Pro Rata Share of any requested Borrowing
available to Administrative Agent on the applicable borrowing date, then
Administrative Agent may recover the applicable amount on demand: (a) from such
Lender, together with interest at the Federal Funds Rate for the period
commencing on the date the amount was made available to Borrower by
Administrative Agent and ending on (but excluding) the date Administrative Agent
recovers the amount from such Lender; or (b) if Lender fails to pay its amount
upon Administrative Agent's demand, then from Borrower; (i) promptly on demand,
to the extent such funds are available in the Subscription Account or any other
account maintained by Borrower; and (ii) otherwise, to the extent that it is
necessary for Borrower to issue a Capital Call Notice to fund such required
payment, within fifteen (15) Business Days after Administrative Agent's demand
(but, in any event, Borrower shall issue such Capital Call Notice and shall make
such payment promptly after the related Capital Contributions are received);
together with interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate applicable to the
requested Borrowing for the period commencing on the borrowing date and ending
on (but excluding) the date Administrative Agent recovers the amount from
Borrower. The liabilities and obligations of each Lender hereunder shall be
several and not joint, and neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be
responsible for the performance by any other Lender of its obligations
hereunder. Each Lender hereunder shall be liable to Borrower and any Qualified
Borrower only for the amount of its respective Commitment.

        2.6    INTEREST RATE.

               (a)    RATE. The unpaid principal of each Reference Rate Loan
        shall bear interest at a rate per annum which shall from day to day be
        equal to the Reference Rate in effect from day to day. The unpaid
        principal of each LIBOR Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum
        which shall be equal to the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for the applicable
        Interest Period.


                                       24
<PAGE>

               (b)    CHANGE IN RATE; PAST DUE AMOUNTS; CALCULATIONS OF
        INTEREST. Each change in the rate of interest for any Borrowing shall
        become effective, without prior notice to Borrower or any Qualified
        Borrower, automatically as of the opening of business of Administrative
        Agent on the date of said change. Interest on the unpaid principal
        balance of each LIBOR Rate Loan shall be calculated on the basis of the
        actual days elapsed in a year consisting of 360 days, which results in
        more interest than if a 365-day year was used. Interest on the unpaid
        principal balance of each Reference Rate Loan shall be calculated on the
        basis of the actual days elapsed in a year consisting of 365 days, or,
        if applicable 366 days. If any principal of, or interest on, the
        Obligation is not paid when due, then (in lieu of the interest rate
        provided in SECTION 2.6(a) above) such past due principal and interest
        shall bear interest at the Default Rate, provided, however, if
        Administrative Agent fails to timely deliver the notice described in
        SECTION 11.1 hereof to Borrower, the Default Rate will not be applied to
        such past due principal and interest until four (4) Business Days after
        such notice is given. If any other Event of Default hereunder shall
        arise, then (in lieu of the interest rate provided in Section 2.6(a)
        above) the principal amount of each Loan in effect at such time and the
        interest thereon shall bear interest at the Default Rate, until such
        Event of Default is cured or is waived.

        2.7    DETERMINATION OF RATE. Administrative Agent shall determine each
interest rate applicable to the Borrowings hereunder. Administrative Agent shall
give prompt notice to Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower and to
Lenders of each rate of interest so determined, and its determination thereof
shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error.

        2.8    LETTERS OF CREDIT.

               (a)    LETTER OF CREDIT COMMITMENT. Subject to the terms and
        conditions hereof, on any Business Day during the Commitment Period,
        Administrative Agent shall cause the Letter of Credit Issuer to issue
        such Letters of Credit in such aggregate face amounts in Dollars as
        Borrower or a Qualified Borrower may request, provided that: (i) on the
        date of issuance, after giving effect to the issuance of any such Letter
        of Credit, the Letter of Credit Liability will not exceed the lesser of:
        (A) the remainder of: (1) the Available Commitment as of such date;
        minus (2) the Principal Obligation as of such date; and (B) the Letter
        of Credit Sublimit; (ii) the expiry date of the Letter of Credit shall
        not be later than twelve months after the date of issuance without the
        Letter of Credit Issuer's consent; and (iii) the expiry date of the
        Letter of Credit shall not be later than the Stated Maturity Date.

               (b)    REQUEST. Each request for a Letter of Credit (a "REQUEST
        FOR LETTER OF CREDIT") shall be submitted to Administrative Agent in the
        form attached hereto as EXHIBIT D (with blanks appropriately completed
        in conformity herewith), together with an Application and Agreement for
        Letter of Credit, for the Letter of Credit Issuer, on or before 11:00
        a.m. (San Francisco time) at least two (2) Business Days prior to the
        requested date of issuance of a Letter of Credit. Administrative Agent
        shall promptly notify each Lender of such Request for Letter of Credit
        and the terms of the requested Letter of Credit. Upon each such
        application, Borrower or the Qualified Borrower, as applicable, shall be
        deemed to have automatically made to Administrative Agent, each Lender,
        and the Letter of Credit Issuer the following representations and
        warranties:


                                       25
<PAGE>

                      (i) As of the date of the issuance of the Letter of Credit
               requested, the representations and warranties set forth in
               SECTION 8 hereof are true and correct in all material respects on
               and as of the date of such issuance, with the same force and
               effect as if made on and as of such date (except to the extent of
               changes in facts or circumstances that have been disclosed to
               Lenders and do not constitute an Event of Default or a Potential
               Default under this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document);

                      (ii) No Event of Default or, to its knowledge, Potential
               Default exists and is continuing at such date; and

                      (iii) After giving effect to the issuance of the requested
               Letter of Credit the Letter of Credit Liability will not exceed
               the lesser of: (A) the remainder of: (1) the Available Commitment
               as of such date; minus (2) the Principal Obligation as of such
               date; and (B) the Letter of Credit Sublimit.

               (c)    PARTICIPATION BY LENDERS. Each Lender shall and does
        hereby participate ratably with the Letter of Credit Issuer in each
        Letter of Credit issued and outstanding hereunder to the extent of its
        Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Liability with respect to each
        such Letter of Credit, and shall share in all rights and obligations
        resulting therefrom, including, without limitation: (i) the right to
        receive from Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of any
        reimbursement of the amount of each draft drawn under each Letter of
        Credit; (ii) the right to receive from Administrative Agent its Pro Rata
        Share of the Letter of Credit fee pursuant to SECTION 2.13 hereof; (iii)
        the right to receive from Administrative Agent its additional costs
        pursuant to SECTION 4.1 hereof; and (iv) the obligation to pay to the
        Administrative Agent or the Letter of Credit Issuer, as the case may be,
        in immediately available funds, its Pro Rata Share of any unreimbursed
        drawing under a Letter of Credit.

               (d)    PAYMENT OF LETTER OF CREDIT. In consideration for the
        issuance by the Letter of Credit Issuer of the Letters of Credit,
        Borrower and each Qualified Borrower hereby authorizes, empowers, and
        directs Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Lenders and the Letter
        of Credit Issuer, to disburse directly to the Letter of Credit Issuer,
        with notice to Borrower or the appropriate Qualified Borrower, in
        immediately available funds an amount equal to the stated amount of each
        draft drawn under each Letter of Credit plus all interest, reasonable
        costs and expenses, and fees due to the Letter of Credit Issuer pursuant
        to the applicable Application and Agreement for Letter of Credit.
        Subject to receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent, each Lender
        shall pay to the Administrative Agent such Lender's Pro Rata Share of
        the amount disbursed by the Administrative Agent on the Business Day on
        which the Letter of Credit Issuer honors any such draft or incurs or is
        owed any such interest, costs, expenses or fees. Administrative Agent
        will promptly notify Borrower or the appropriate Qualified Borrower of
        any disbursements made by Lenders pursuant to the terms hereof, provided
        that the failure to give such notice will not affect the validity of the
        disbursement, and Administrative Agent shall provide Lenders with notice
        thereof. Any such disbursement made by Lenders to the Letter of Credit
        Issuer on account of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a
        Reference Rate Loan, and Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower
        shall be deemed to have given to Administrative Agent, in accordance
        with the terms and conditions of SECTION 2.3, a Request for Borrowing
        with respect thereto. Administrative Agent and Lenders may


                                       26
<PAGE>

        conclusively rely on the Letter of Credit Issuer as to the amount due
        the Letter of Credit Issuer by reason of any draft of a Letter of Credit
        or due the Letter of Credit Issuer under any Application and Agreement
        for Letter of Credit.

               (e)    ACCELERATION OF UNDRAWN AMOUNTS. Should Administrative
        Agent demand payment of the Obligation hereunder prior to the Maturity
        Date pursuant to SECTION 11.2 hereof, Administrative Agent, by written
        notice to Borrower, may take one or more of the following actions: (i)
        declare the obligation of the Letter of Credit Issuer to issue Letters
        of Credit hereunder terminated, whereupon such obligations shall
        forthwith terminate without any other notice of any kind; or (ii)
        declare the outstanding Letter of Credit Liability to be forthwith due
        and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of
        any kind, all of which are hereby waived, and demand that Borrower and
        any applicable Qualified Borrower pay to Administrative Agent for
        deposit in a segregated interest-bearing cash collateral account, as
        security for the Obligation, an amount equal to the aggregate undrawn
        stated amount of all Letters of Credit then outstanding at the time such
        notice is given. Unless otherwise required by law, upon the full and
        final payment of the Obligation, Administrative Agent shall return to
        Borrower and the applicable Qualified Borrower any amounts remaining in
        said cash collateral account.

        2.9    PAYMENT OF BORROWER GUARANTY. In consideration of Lenders'
agreement to advance funds to a Qualified Borrower pursuant to SECTIONS 2.2 and
2.3 hereof, to cause Letters of Credit to be issued for the account of a
Qualified Borrower pursuant to SECTION 2.8 hereof, and to accept Borrower
Guaranties in support thereof, Borrower hereby authorizes, empowers, and directs
the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, within the limits of the
Available Commitment, to disburse directly to Lenders, with notice to Borrower,
in immediately available funds, an amount equal to the amount due and owing
under any Qualified Borrower Note or any Borrower Guaranty, together with all
interest, reasonable costs and expenses and fees due to Lenders pursuant thereto
in the event Administrative Agent shall have not received payment of such
Obligation when due. Administrative Agent will promptly notify Borrower of any
disbursement made to Lenders pursuant to the terms hereof, provided that the
failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of the disbursement,
and Administrative Agent shall provide Lenders with notice thereof. Any such
disbursement made by Administrative Agent to Lenders shall be deemed to be a
Reference Rate Loan pursuant to SECTION 2.3 hereof in the amount so paid, and
Borrower shall be deemed to have given to Administrative Agent in accordance
with the terms and conditions of SECTION 2.3 a Request for Borrowing with
respect thereto. Administrative Agent may conclusively rely on Lenders as to the
amount of any such Obligation due to Lenders, absent manifest error.

        2.10   USE OF PROCEEDS, LETTERS OF CREDIT AND BORROWER GUARANTIES. The
proceeds of the Loans and the Letters of Credit shall be used for the purposes
permitted under the Partnership Agreement. Neither Lenders nor Administrative
Agent shall have any liability, obligation, or responsibility whatsoever with
respect to Borrower's or a Qualified Borrower's use of the proceeds of the
Loans, the Letters of Credit or execution and delivery of the Borrower
Guaranties, and neither Lenders nor Administrative Agent shall be obligated to
determine whether or not Borrower's or a Qualified Borrower's use of the
proceeds of the Loans or the Letters of Credit are for purposes permitted under
the Partnership Agreement. Nothing, including, without limitation, any
Borrowing, any Rollover, any issuance of any Letter of Credit, or acceptance of
any Borrower Guaranty or other document or instrument, shall be construed as a
representation or warranty,


                                       27
<PAGE>

express or implied, to any party by Lenders or Administrative Agent as to
whether any investment by Borrower is permitted by the terms of the Partnership
Agreement.

        2.11   ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT FEES. Borrower and the Qualified Borrowers
shall pay, to Administrative Agent, fees in consideration of the arrangement and
administration of the Commitments, which fees shall be payable in amounts and on
the dates agreed to between Borrower and Administrative Agent in the Fee Letter.

        2.12   UNUSED COMMITMENT FEE. In addition to the payments provided for
in SECTION 3 hereof, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the account
of each Lender, according to its Pro Rata Share, an unused commitment fee on the
daily amount of the Maximum Commitment which was unused (through the extension
of Loans or issuance of Letters of Credit) during the immediately preceding
calendar quarter calculated on the basis of actual days elapsed in a year
consisting of 360 days: (a) if such unused amount is more than fifty percent
(50%) of the Maximum Commitment, at the rate of seventeen and one-half basis
points (0.175%) per annum; and (b) if such unused amount is equal to or less
than fifty percent (50%) of the Maximum Commitment, at the rate of fifteen basis
points (0.15%) per annum, in each case payable in arrears on the first Business
Day of each calendar quarter for the preceding calendar quarter. For purposes of
this SECTION 2.12, the fee shall be calculated each time the Principal
Obligation or the Maximum Commitment increases or decreases, for the number of
days since the last calculation of the fee, as follows:

        (((Maximum Commitment for such period - Principal Obligation for such
        period) (*) applicable rate [as described above]) (*) number of days in
        such period) / 360)

        Borrower and Lenders acknowledge and agree that the commitment fees
payable hereunder are bona fide commitment fees and are intended as reasonable
compensation to Lenders for committing to make funds available to Borrower as
described herein and for no other purposes.

        2.13   LETTER OF CREDIT FEES. Borrower, or the appropriate Qualified
Borrower, shall pay to Administrative Agent: (a) for the benefit of Lenders, in
consideration for the issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder, a non-refundable
per annum fee equal to the Applicable Margin on the face amount of each Letter
of Credit, less the amount of any draws on such Letter of Credit, payable in
advance in quarterly installments, commencing on the issuance date and
continuing for so long as such Letter of Credit remains outstanding; and (b) for
the benefit of the Letter of Credit Issuer, in consideration of the issuance and
fronting of Letters of Credit, a non-refundable fronting fee equal to 0.125% per
annum, which fronting fee shall be calculated on the stated amount of the Letter
of Credit, payable at the time each letter of credit is issued.

SECTION 3. PAYMENT OF OBLIGATIONS

        3.1    REVOLVING CREDIT NOTES. Any Lender may request that Loans made by
it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event: (a) Borrower shall execute
and deliver a promissory note payable to such Lender in the amount of such
Lender's Commitment; and (b) any Qualified Borrower that has not previously done
so shall execute and deliver a promissory note payable to such Administrative
Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders in the principal amount of its related
Obligation. Any such note issued by Borrower shall be substantially in the form
of EXHIBIT B attached hereto (with blanks appropriately completed in conformity
herewith), and any such note issued by a Qualified Borrower shall be
substantially in the form of


                                       28
<PAGE>

EXHIBIT F attached hereto (with blanks appropriately completed in conformity
herewith). Borrower agrees, from time to time, upon the request of
Administrative Agent or any affected Lender, to reissue new Notes, in accordance
with the terms and in the form heretofore provided, to any Lender and any
Assignee of such Lender in accordance with SECTION 13.11(c) hereof, in renewal
of and substitution for the Notes previously issued by Borrower to the affected
Lender, and such previously issued Notes shall be returned to Borrower marked
"replaced".

        3.2    PAYMENT OF OBLIGATION. The unpaid principal amount of the
Obligation, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, shall be due
and payable on the Maturity Date.

        3.3    PAYMENT OF INTEREST.

               (a)    INTEREST. Interest on each Borrowing and any portion
        thereof shall commence to accrue in accordance with the terms of this
        Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as of the date of the
        disbursal or wire transfer of such Borrowing by Administrative Agent,
        consistent with the provisions of SECTION 2.5, notwithstanding whether
        Borrower or a Qualified Borrower received the benefit of such Borrowing
        as of such date and even if such Borrowing is held in escrow pursuant to
        the terms of any escrow arrangement or agreement. When a Borrowing is
        disbursed by wire transfer pursuant to instructions received from
        Borrower, then such Borrowing shall be considered made at the time of
        the transmission of the wire, rather than the time of receipt thereof by
        the receiving bank. With regard to the repayment of the Loans, interest
        shall continue to accrue on any amount repaid until such time as the
        repayment has been received in federal or other immediately available
        funds by Administrative Agent in the appropriate Funding Account.

               (b)    INTEREST PAYMENT DATES. Accrued and unpaid interest on the
        Obligation shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment
        Date, and on the Maturity Date.

               (c)    DIRECT DISBURSEMENT. If, at any time, Administrative Agent
        shall not have received on the date due, any payment of interest upon
        the Loans or any fee described herein, Administrative Agent may direct
        the disbursement of funds from the Subscription Account to Lenders to
        the extent available therein for payment of any such amount. Thereafter,
        if the amount available in the Subscription Account is not sufficient
        for the full payment of such amounts due, Administrative Agent may,
        without prior notice to or the consent of Borrower, within the limits of
        the Available Commitment, disburse to Lenders in immediately available
        funds an amount equal to the interest or fee due to Lenders, which
        disbursement shall be deemed to be a Reference Rate Loan pursuant to
        SECTION 2.3 hereof, and Borrower shall be deemed to have given to
        Lenders in accordance with the terms and conditions of SECTION 2.3 a
        Request for Borrowing with respect thereto. After any disbursement of
        funds from the Subscription Account to Lenders as contemplated in this
        SECTION 3.3(c), Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver written
        notice of such disbursement to Borrower, provided, however, that the
        failure of Administrative Agent to give such notice will not affect the
        validity of such disbursement, and Administrative Agent shall provide
        Lenders with notice thereof.

        3.4    PAYMENTS ON THE OBLIGATION. All payments of principal of, and
interest on, the Obligation under this Credit Agreement by Borrower and
Qualified Borrowers to or for the account of Lenders, or any


                                       29
<PAGE>

of them, shall be made by Borrower and Qualified Borrowers for receipt by
Administrative Agent before 11:00 a.m. (San Francisco time) in federal or other
immediately available funds to the appropriate Funding Account. Funds received
after 11:00 a.m. (San Francisco time) shall be treated for all purposes as
having been received by Administrative Agent on the first Business Day next
following receipt of such funds. Except as provided in SECTION 13.11 hereof,
each Lender shall be entitled to receive its Pro Rata Share of each payment
received by Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of Lenders on the
Obligation. Each payment received by Administrative Agent hereunder for the
account of a Lender shall be promptly distributed by Administrative Agent to
such Lender. Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby agree that payments to
Administrative Agent by Borrower and Qualified Borrowers of principal of, and
interest on, the Obligation by Borrower and Qualified Borrowers to or for the
account of Lenders in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, the
Notes and the other Loan Documents shall constitute satisfaction of Borrower's
and Qualified Borrowers' obligations with respect to any such payments, and
Administrative Agent shall indemnify, and each Lender shall hold harmless,
Borrower and Qualified Borrowers from any claims asserted by any Lender in
connection with Administrative Agent's duty to distribute and apportion such
payments to Lenders in accordance with this SECTION 3.4. All payments made on
the Obligation shall be credited, to the extent of the amount thereof, in the
following manner: (a) first, against all costs, expenses and other fees
(including attorneys' fees) arising under the terms hereof; (b) second, against
the amount of interest accrued and unpaid on the Obligation as of the date of
such payment; (c) third, against all principal due and owing on the Obligation
as of the date of such payment; and (d) fourth, to all other amounts
constituting any portion of the Obligation.

        3.5    VOLUNTARY PREPAYMENTS. Borrower or any Qualified Borrower may,
without premium or penalty, upon three (3) Business Days' prior written notice
to Administrative Agent, prepay the principal of the Obligation then
outstanding, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time; provided,
however, that if Borrower or any Qualified Borrower shall prepay the principal
of any LIBOR Loan on any date other than the last day of the Interest Period
applicable thereto, Borrower or such Qualified Borrower, as the case may be,
shall make the payments required by SECTION 4.5 hereof. Notwithstanding any
provision to the contrary in this SECTION 3.5, if Borrower or a Qualified
Borrower desires to prepay a Reference Rate Loan, Borrower or a Qualified
Borrower shall only be required to provide written notice thereof to
Administrative Agent of such prepayment one (1) Business Day in advance of such
payment. Any prepayment not received by 11:00 a.m. (San Francisco time) on a
Business Day shall be deemed to have been paid on the next succeeding Business
Day. All prepayments of LIBOR Loans must be made on a LIBOR Banking Day.

        3.6    REDUCTION OR EARLY TERMINATION OF COMMITMENTS. So long as no
Request for Borrowing or Request for Letter of Credit is outstanding, Borrower
may terminate the Commitments, or reduce the Maximum Commitment, by giving prior
irrevocable written notice to Administrative Agent of such termination or
reduction three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such
termination or reduction (which date shall be specified by Borrower in such
notice): (a) (i) in the case of complete termination of the Commitments, upon
prepayment of all of the outstanding Obligation, including, without limitation,
all interest accrued thereon, in accordance with the terms of SECTION 3.5; or
(ii) in the case of a reduction of the Maximum Commitment, upon prepayment of
the amount by which the Principal Obligation exceeds the reduced Available
Commitment resulting from such reduction, including, without limitation, payment
of all interest accrued thereon, in accordance with the terms of SECTION 3.5,
provided, however, that, except in connection with a termination of the
Commitments, the Maximum Commitment may not be reduced such that, upon such
reduction, the Available Commitment is less than the aggregate stated amount of
outstanding Letters of


                                       30
<PAGE>

Credit; and (b) in the case of the complete termination of the Commitments, if
any Letter of Credit Liability exists, upon payment to Administrative Agent for
deposit in a segregated interest-bearing cash collateral account, as security
for the Letter of Credit Liability, an amount equal to the Letter of Credit
Liability then outstanding at the time such notice is given, without
presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are
hereby waived. Unless otherwise required by law, upon the full and final payment
of the Letter of Credit Liability, or the termination of all outstanding Letter
of Credit Liability due to the expiration of all outstanding Letters of Credit
prior to draws thereon, Administrative Agent shall return to Borrower or the
applicable Qualified Borrower any amounts remaining in said cash collateral
account, provided, however, that to the extent individual Letters of Credit
expire, Agent will return to Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower the
corresponding amount of the expired Letter of Credit Liability. Notwithstanding
the foregoing: (1) Borrower may not terminate the Commitments or reduce the
Maximum Commitment prior to six (6) months following the Closing Date; (2) after
any reduction of the Maximum Commitment by Borrower, the next subsequent
reduction shall not occur until at least one month thereafter; (3) any reduction
of the Maximum Commitment shall be in an amount equal to or greater than
$5,000,000; and (4) in no event shall a reduction by Borrower reduce the Maximum
Commitment to $20,000,000 or less (except for a termination of all the
Commitments). Promptly after receipt of any notice of reduction or termination,
Agent shall notify each Lender of the same. Any reduction of the Maximum
Commitment shall reduce the Commitments of the Lenders on a pro rata basis.

        3.7    LENDING OFFICE. Each Lender may: (a) designate its principal
office or a branch, subsidiary or Affiliate of such Lender as its lending office
(and the office to whose accounts payments are to be credited) for any LIBOR
Loan; (b) designate its principal office or a branch, subsidiary or Affiliate as
its lending office (and the office to whose accounts payments are to be
credited) for any Reference Rate Loan and (c) change its lending offices from
time to time by notice to Administrative Agent and Borrower. In such event, such
Lender shall continue to hold the Note, if any, evidencing its loans for the
benefit and account of such branch, subsidiary or Affiliate. Each Lender shall
be entitled to fund all or any portion of its Commitment in any manner it deems
appropriate, consistent with the provisions of SECTION 2.5, but for the purposes
of this Credit Agreement such Lender shall, regardless of such Lender's actual
means of funding, be deemed to have funded its Commitment in accordance with the
Interest Option selected from time to time by the Borrower or a Qualified
Borrower for such Borrowing period.

SECTION 4. CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES.

        4.1    INCREASED COST AND REDUCED RETURN.

               (a)    CHANGE IN LAW: INCREASED COST. If, after the date hereof,
        the adoption of any applicable law, rule, or regulation, or any change
        in any applicable law, rule, or regulation, or any change in the
        interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority,
        central bank, or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or
        administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender or the Letter of
        Credit Issuer (or its respective Applicable Lending Office) with any
        request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any
        such Governmental Authority, central bank, or comparable agency:

                      (i) shall subject such Lender or the Letter of Credit
               Issuer (or its Applicable Lending Office) to any tax, duty, or
               other charge with respect to any LIBOR Loans, Letters


                                       31
<PAGE>

               of Credit, its Note, or its obligation to make LIBOR Loans, or
               issue Letters of Credit, or change the basis of taxation of any
               amounts payable to such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer (or
               its respective Applicable Lending Office) under this Credit
               Agreement or its Note in respect of any LIBOR Loans, or Letters
               of Credit (other than taxes imposed on the overall net income of
               such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer by the jurisdiction in
               which such Lender has been incorporated, created, or organized or
               has its principal office or such Applicable Lending Office);

                      (ii) shall impose, modify, or deem applicable any reserve,
               special deposit, assessment, compulsory loan, or similar
               requirement (other than the LIBOR Reserve Requirement utilized in
               the determination of the Adjusted LIBOR Rate) relating to any
               extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or
               other liabilities or commitments of, such Lender, the Letter of
               Credit Issuer (or its respective Applicable Lending Office),
               including the Commitment of such Lender hereunder;

                      (iii) shall increase the amount of capital required or
               expected to be maintained or funded by the Letter of Credit
               Issuer or any Lender and applicable to banks generally in
               relation to the Letters of Credit issued by the Letter of Credit
               Issuer or imposed upon any Lender by virtue of its participation
               arrangement provided in SECTION 2.8(c) hereof; or

                      (iv) shall impose on such Lender, the Letter of Credit
               Issuer (or its respective Applicable Lending Office) or on the
               United States market for certificates of deposit or the London
               interbank market any other condition affecting this Credit
               Agreement or its Note or any of such extensions of credit or
               liabilities or commitments;

        and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such
        Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer (or its respective Applicable
        Lending Office) of making, Converting into, Continuing, or maintaining
        any LIBOR Loans, or participating in the Letters of Credit, or to reduce
        any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the Letter of Credit
        Issuer (or its respective Applicable Lending Office) under this Credit
        Agreement or its Note, with respect to any LIBOR Loans or any Letter of
        Credit, then Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amount or amounts as
        will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction
        (provided, however, that such amounts shall be consistent with amounts
        that such Lender is generally charging other borrowers similarly
        situated to the Borrower): (A) promptly on demand, to the extent that
        funds are available in the Subscription Account or any other account
        maintained by Borrower; and (B) otherwise, to the extent that it is
        necessary for Borrower to issue a Capital Call Notice to fund such
        required payment, within fifteen (15) Business Days after demand (but,
        in any event, Borrower shall issue such Capital Call Notice and shall
        make such payment promptly after the related Capital Contributions are
        received).

               (b)    CHANGE IN LAW: REDUCED RETURN. If, after the date hereof,
        the adoption of any applicable law, rule, or regulation regarding
        capital adequacy or any change therein or in the interpretation or
        administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank, or
        comparable agency 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,
        central bank, or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of
        reducing the rate of return on


                                       32
<PAGE>

        the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as
        a consequence of such Lender's obligations hereunder to a level below
        that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for
        such adoption, change, request, or directive (taking into consideration
        its policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time
        Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as
        will compensate such Lender for such reduction (provided, however, that
        such amounts shall be consistent with amounts that such Lender is
        generally charging other borrowers similarly situated to the Borrower):
        (i) promptly on demand, to the extent that funds are available in the
        Subscription Account or any other account maintained by Borrower; and
        (ii) otherwise, to the extent that it is necessary for Borrower to issue
        a Capital Call Notice to fund such required payment, within fifteen (15)
        Business Days after demand (but, in any event, Borrower shall issue such
        Capital Call Notice and shall make such payment promptly after the
        related Capital Contributions are received).

               (c)    NOTICE. Each Lender and the Letter of Credit Issuer shall
        promptly notify Borrower and Administrative Agent of any event of which
        it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, but in no event later
        than ninety (90) days after the occurrence of such event, which will or
        may entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this SECTION 4.1 and
        will designate a different Applicable Lending Office if such designation
        will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and
        will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, be otherwise
        disadvantageous to it. Any Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer
        claiming compensation under this SECTION 4.1 shall furnish to Borrower
        and Administrative Agent a statement setting forth the additional amount
        or amounts to be paid to it hereunder which shall be conclusive in the
        absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Lender may
        use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

        4.2    LIMITATION ON TYPES OF LOANS. If on or prior to the first day of
any Interest Period for any LIBOR Loan:

               (a)    Administrative Agent determines, in good faith (which
        determination shall be conclusive), that by reason of circumstances
        affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not
        exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period for the
        LIBOR Loan requested; or

               (b)    the Required Lenders determine (which determination shall
        be conclusive) and notify Administrative Agent that the Adjusted LIBOR
        Rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of
        funding LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period;

then Administrative Agent shall give Borrower prompt notice thereof specifying
the relevant amounts or periods, and so long as such condition remains in
effect, the Lenders shall be under no obligation to make additional LIBOR Loans,
Continue LIBOR Loans, or to Convert Loans of any other Type of Loans into LIBOR
Loans and Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower, as the case may be,
shall, on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for the
outstanding LIBOR Loans either prepay such Loans or Convert such Loans into
another Type of Loan in accordance with the terms of this Credit Agreement.

        4.3    ILLEGALITY. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Credit
Agreement, in the event that it becomes unlawful for any Lender or its
Applicable Lending Office to make, maintain, or fund LIBOR


                                       33
<PAGE>

Loans hereunder, then such Lender shall promptly notify Borrower or the
applicable Qualified Borrower, as the case may be, thereof and such Lender's
obligation to make or Continue LIBOR Loans and to Convert other Types of Loans
into LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until such time as such Lender may again
make, maintain, and fund LIBOR Loans (in which case the provisions of SECTION
4.4 shall be applicable), provided, however, that such Lender will designate a
different Applicable Lending Office if such designation will resolve such
illegality, and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, be
otherwise disadvantageous to it.

        4.4    TREATMENT OF AFFECTED LOANS. If the obligation of any Lender to
make a LIBOR Loan or to Continue, or to Convert Loans of any other Type into
LIBOR Loans shall be suspended pursuant to SECTION 4.1 or SECTION 4.3 hereof,
such Lender's LIBOR Loans shall be automatically Converted into Reference Rate
Loans on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for such LIBOR
Loans (or, in the case of a Conversion required by SECTION 4.3 hereof, on such
earlier date as such Lender may specify to Borrower with a copy to
Administrative Agent) and, unless and until such Lender gives notice as provided
below that the circumstances specified in SECTION 4.1 or SECTION 4.3 hereof that
gave rise to such Conversion no longer exist:

               (a)    to the extent that such Lender's LIBOR Loans have been so
        Converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would
        otherwise be applied to such Lender's LIBOR Loans shall be applied
        instead to its Reference Rate Loans; and

               (b)    all Loans that would otherwise be made or Continued by
        such Lender as LIBOR Loans shall be made instead as Reference Rate
        Loans, and all Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be Converted
        into LIBOR Loans shall remain as Reference Rate Loans.

If such Lender gives notice to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent)
that the circumstances specified in SECTION 4.1 or SECTION 4.3 hereof that gave
rise to the Conversion of such Lender's LIBOR Loans pursuant to this SECTION 4.4
no longer exist (which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances
ceasing to exist) at a time when LIBOR Loans made by other Lenders are
outstanding, such Lender's Reference Rate Loans shall be automatically
Converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for
such outstanding LIBOR Loans to the extent necessary so that, after giving
effect thereto, all Loans held by the Lenders holding LIBOR Loans and by such
Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, Types, and Interest Periods)
in accordance with their respective Commitments.

        4.5    COMPENSATION. Upon the request of Administrative Agent, Borrower
shall pay to Lenders such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the
reasonable opinion of Administrative Agent, which determination shall, in the
absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding) to compensate Lenders for
any loss, cost, or expense incurred as a result of:

               (a)    any payment, prepayment, or Conversion of a LIBOR Loan for
        any reason (including, without limitation, the acceleration of the Loans
        pursuant to this Credit Agreement) on a date other than the last day of
        the Interest Period for such Loan, provided, however, that if Borrower
        shall be required to pay any of the foregoing amounts to Lenders due to
        a prepayment pursuant to CLAUSE (b) of SECTION 2.5 as a result of a
        Lender failing to make its Pro Rata Share of any requested Borrowing,
        such defaulting Lender shall reimburse Borrower for such amounts; or


                                       34
<PAGE>

               (b)    any failure by Borrower for any reason (including, without
        limitation, the failure of any condition precedent specified in SECTION
        7 to be satisfied) to borrow, Convert, Continue, or prepay a LIBOR Loan
        on the date for such borrowing, Conversion, Continuation, or prepayment
        specified in the relevant notice of borrowing, prepayment, Continuation,
        or Conversion under this Credit Agreement.

        4.6    TAXES.

               (a)    EXCLUDED TAXES. Any and all payments by Borrower to or for
        the account of any Lender or Administrative Agent hereunder or under any
        other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without
        deduction for any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies,
        imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with
        respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Lender and
        Administrative Agent, any taxes (including franchise taxes and taxes
        imposed on or measured by net income or profits), by reason of any
        connection between, as applicable, such Lender or Administrative Agent
        and the relevant taxing jurisdiction, including, without limitation, a
        connection arising from such Person being or having been a citizen,
        domiciliary, or resident of such jurisdiction, being organized in such
        jurisdiction, or having had a permanent establishment or fixed place of
        business therein, but excluding a connection arising solely from such
        Person having executed, delivered, performed its obligations or received
        any payment under this Credit Agreement (all such non-excluded taxes,
        duties, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings, and
        liabilities being hereinafter referred to as "TAXES"). If Borrower shall
        be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum
        payable under this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document to any
        Lender or Administrative Agent: (i) the sum payable shall be increased
        as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including
        deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this SECTION 4.6)
        such Lender or Administrative Agent receives an amount equal to the sum
        it would have received had no such deductions been made; (ii) Borrower
        shall make such deductions; (iii) Borrower shall pay the full amount
        deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in
        accordance with applicable law; and (iv) Borrower shall furnish to
        Administrative Agent, at its address for notice under this Credit
        Agreement, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing
        payment thereof.

               (b)    OTHER TAXES. In addition, Borrower agrees to pay any and
        all present or future stamp or documentary taxes and any other excise or
        property taxes or charges or similar levies which arise from any payment
        made under this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or from the
        execution or delivery of, or otherwise with respect to, this Credit
        Agreement or any other Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as "OTHER
        TAXES").

               (c)    INDEMNIFICATION. Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender
        and Administrative Agent for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes
        (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or
        asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this SECTION 4.6)
        paid by such Lender or Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and any
        liability (including penalties, interest, and expenses) arising
        therefrom or with respect thereto.

               (d)    PRESCRIBED FORMS. (i) Each Lender organized under the laws
        of the United States, on or prior to the date of its execution and
        delivery of this Credit Agreement in the case of each


                                       35
<PAGE>

        Lender listed on the signature pages hereof and on or prior to the date
        on which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from
        time to time thereafter if requested in writing by Borrower or
        Administrative Agent (but only so long as such Lender remains lawfully
        able to do so), shall provide Borrower and Administrative Agent with two
        duly completed originals of Internal Revenue Service form W-9, or any
        successor form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service. Each such
        Lender shall also provide to Borrower or Administrative Agent, on or
        before the date that any such form expires or becomes obsolete and
        promptly after the occurrence of any event requiring a change from the
        most recent forms previously delivered by it to Borrower or
        Administrative Agent in accordance with applicable U.S. law and
        regulations, a form W-9, or a successor form, and shall notify promptly
        Borrower and Administrative Agent if it is no longer able to deliver, or
        if it is required to withdraw or cancel, any form or statement
        previously delivered by it pursuant hereto. Each required form shall be
        delivered by the appropriate Lender on or before the date it becomes a
        party to this Credit Agreement, and on or before the date, if any, such
        Lender changes or substitutes its lending office and from time to time
        thereafter as reasonably required by Administrative Agent or Borrower,
        and each Lender agrees to take any required action to keep any such form
        in full force and effect. (ii) Each Lender organized under the laws of a
        jurisdiction outside the United States, on or prior to the date of its
        execution and delivery of this Credit Agreement in the case of each
        Lender listed on the signature pages hereof and on or prior to the date
        on which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from
        time to time thereafter if requested in writing by Borrower or
        Administrative Agent (but only so long as such Lender remains lawfully
        able to do so), shall provide Borrower and Administrative Agent with two
        duly completed original Internal Revenue Service forms W8-ECI or W8-BEN,
        or any successor form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service. Each
        such Lender shall also provide to Borrower or Administrative Agent, on
        or before the date that any such form expires or becomes obsolete and
        promptly after the occurrence of any event requiring a change from the
        most recent forms previously delivered by it to Borrower or
        Administrative Agent in accordance with applicable U.S. law and
        regulations, a form W8-ECI or W8-BEN, or a successor form, and shall
        notify promptly Borrower and Administrative Agent if it is no longer
        able to deliver, or if it is required to withdraw or cancel, any form or
        statement previously delivered by it pursuant hereto. For any period
        with respect to which a Lender has failed to provide or is unable to
        provide Borrower and Administrative Agent with the appropriate form
        (unless such failure is due to a change in treaty, law, or regulation
        occurring subsequent to the date on which a form originally was required
        to be provided), such Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification
        under SECTIONS 4.6(a) or 4.6(b) with respect to Taxes imposed by the
        United States; provided, however, that should a Lender, which is
        otherwise exempt from withholding tax, become subject to Taxes because
        of its failure to deliver a Prescribed Form required hereunder, Borrower
        shall take such steps as such Lender shall reasonably request to assist
        such Lender to recover such Taxes, so long as such steps do not require
        Borrower to incur any material out-of-pocket expense. Each required form
        shall be delivered by the appropriate Lender on or before the date it
        becomes a party to this Credit Agreement, and on or before the date, if
        any, such Lender changes or substitutes its lending office and from time
        to time thereafter as reasonably required by Administrative Agent or
        Borrower, and each Lender agrees to take any required action to keep any
        such form in full force and effect.

               (e)    SELECTION OF LENDING OFFICE. If Borrower is or is likely
        to be required to pay additional amounts to or for the account of any
        Lender pursuant to this SECTION 4.6, then such Lender will agree to use
        reasonable efforts to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending
        Office so as


                                       36
<PAGE>

        to eliminate or reduce any such additional payment which may thereafter
        accrue if such change, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, is not
        otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

               (f)    EVIDENCE OF PAYMENT. Within thirty (30) days after the
        date of any payment of Taxes, Borrower shall furnish to Administrative
        Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such
        payment.

               (g)    SURVIVAL OF AGREEMENTS. Without prejudice to the survival
        of any other agreement of Borrower hereunder, the agreements and
        obligations of Borrower contained in this SECTION 4.6 shall survive the
        termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of the
        Obligation.

        SECTION 5. SECURITY

        5.1    LIENS AND SECURITY INTEREST. To secure the payment and
performance of the Obligation: (i) pursuant to a Pledge and Security Agreement,
Guarantor shall grant to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of each Lender,
an exclusive, perfected, first priority security interest in all of the
Collateral described therein, including the Capital Commitments and any rights
to call for and receive payment of Capital Contributions as contemplated by the
Subscription Agreements and the Articles of Incorporation, and to enforce the
payment thereof or any guarantees thereof now existing or hereafter arising;
(ii) pursuant to its Account Assignment, Guarantor shall grant to Administrative
Agent, for the benefit of each Lender, an exclusive, perfected, first priority
security interest in the Guarantor Subscription Account and all of the proceeds
thereof as more fully described in such Account Assignment; (iii) pursuant to
the Pledge Agreement, Guarantor shall grant to Administrative Agent, for the
benefit of each Lender, an exclusive, perfected, first priority security
interest in the Collateral described therein, including all of Guarantor's
interest in Borrower now existing or hereafter arising; (iv) pursuant to a
Pledge and Security Agreement, Borrower shall grant to Administrative Agent, for
the benefit of each Lender, an exclusive, perfected, first priority security
interest in all of the Collateral described therein, including the Capital
Commitments and any rights to call for and receive payment of Capital
Contributions as contemplated by the Subscription Agreements and the Partnership
Agreement, and to enforce the payment thereof or any guarantees thereof now
existing or hereafter arising; (v) pursuant to its Account Assignment, Borrower
shall grant to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of each Lender, an
exclusive, perfected, first priority security interest in the Borrower
Subscription Account and all of the proceeds thereof as more fully described in
such Account Assignment; and (vi) pursuant to the Borrower's Security Agreement,
Borrower shall grant to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of each Lender, an
exclusive, perfected, first priority security interest in its rights to receive
profits and distributions from any subsidiary Affiliate (all of the collateral
described in (i) through (vi) above, collectively, "COLLATERAL").

        5.2    SUBSCRIPTION ACCOUNTS; CAPITAL CALLS.

               (a)    SUBSCRIPTION ACCOUNTS. In order to secure further the

        irrevocably appoints Administrative Agent as subscription agent and the
        sole party entitled in the name of Guarantor upon the occurrence and
        during the continuance of an Event of Default, to make any Capital Calls
        upon the Shareholders pursuant to the terms of the applicable
        Subscription Agreements and the Guarantor's Constituent Documents, and
        shall require that all Shareholders wire-transfer to Bank of America,

        or sums paid or to be paid by any Shareholder to the capital of
        Guarantor as Capital Contributions as and when Capital Contributions are
        called pursuant to the Capital Call Notices. In addition, each of
        Guarantor and Borrower shall, upon receipt, deposit in the applicable
        Subscription Account described above, any payments and monies that
        Borrower or Guarantor receives directly from its Partners or
        Shareholders, as applicable, as Capital Contributions.

               (b)    NO DUTY. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein
        contained, it is expressly understood and agreed that neither
        Administrative Agent, Letter of Credit Issuer, nor any Lender undertakes
        any duties, responsibilities, or liabilities with respect to Capital
        Calls. None of them shall be required to refer to the Constituent
        Documents of Borrower or Guarantor or take any other action with respect
        to any other matter which might arise in connection with such
        Constituent Documents or the Subscription Agreements, or any Capital
        Call. None of them shall have any duty to determine or inquire into any
        happening or occurrence or any performance or failure of performance of
        any Credit Party or any Investor. None of them has any duty to inquire
        into the use, purpose, or reasons for the making of any Capital Call or
        with respect to the investment or the use of the proceeds thereof.

               (c)    CAPITAL CALLS. In order that Lenders may monitor the
        Collateral and the Capital Commitments, neither Borrower nor Guarantor
        shall issue any Capital Call Notice or otherwise request, notify, or
        demand that any Investor make any Capital Contribution, without
        delivering to Administrative Agent (which delivery may be via facsimile)
        simultaneously with delivery of the Capital Call Notices to any
        Investors ("CAPITAL CALL NOTICE DATE"), copies of the Capital Call
        Notice for each Investor from whom a Capital Contribution is being
        sought. Any attempted Capital Call Notice by Borrower or Guarantor other
        than in the manner contemplated above shall be void with respect to
        Borrower's and Guarantor's obligations under this SECTION 5.2(c) or the
        other Loan Documents.

               (d)    USE OF ACCOUNT; CAPITAL CALLS BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.
        Borrower may withdraw funds from the Subscription Account at any time or
        from time to time, so long as after giving effect to such withdrawal or
        disbursement: (i) there does not exist an Event of Default; (ii) there
        does not exist a Potential Default under SECTIONS 11.1(a), 11.1(i), or
        11.1(j) hereof; and (iii) the Principal Obligation does not exceed the
        Available Commitment (unless, in the latter case, Borrower has directed
        that such disbursement be paid to Administrative Agent to repay such
        excess).


                                       38

               Borrower and Guarantor hereby irrevocably authorize and direct
        Lenders, acting through Administrative Agent, to charge from time to
        time the Subscription Account and any other accounts of Borrower or
        Guarantor at any Lender for amounts not paid when due (after the passage
        of any applicable grace period) to Lenders or any of them hereunder and
        under the Notes, provided, however, that promptly after any disbursement
        of funds from any such account to Lenders, as contemplated in this
        SECTION 5.2(d), Administrative Agent shall deliver a written notice of
        such disbursement to Borrower. Administrative Agent, on behalf of
        Lenders, is hereby authorized, in the name of Lenders or the name of
        Borrower or Guarantor, at any time or from time to time upon the
        occurrence and while an Event of Default exists, to notify any or all
        parties obligated to Borrower or Guarantor with respect to the Capital
        Commitments to make all payments due or to become due thereon directly
        to Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders, at a different account
        number, or to initiate one or more Capital Call Notices in order to pay
        the Obligation. With or without such general notification, when an Event
        of Default exists, Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lenders: (i) may
        make Capital Calls in the name of Borrower or Guarantor, as applicable;
        (ii) may take or bring in Borrower's name or Guarantor's name or that of
        Lenders all steps, actions, suits, or proceedings deemed by
        Administrative Agent necessary or desirable to effect possession or
        collection of Capital Commitments; (iii) may complete any contract or
        agreement of Borrower or Guarantor in any way related to any of the
        Capital Commitments; (iv) may make allowances or adjustments related to
        the Capital Commitments; (v) may compromise any claims related to the
        Capital Commitments; (vi) may issue credit in its own name or the name
        of Borrower or Guarantor; or (vii) may exercise any right, privilege,
        power, or remedy provided to Borrower or Guarantor under the Constituent
        Documents of either, or the Subscription Agreements or relating to the
        right to call for Capital Contributions and to receive Capital Calls.
        Regardless of any provision hereof, in the absence of gross negligence
        or willful misconduct by Administrative Agent or Lenders, none of
        Administrative Agent or Lenders shall ever be liable for failure to
        collect or for failure to exercise diligence in the collection,
        possession, or any transaction concerning, all or part of the Capital
        Call Notices, Capital Commitments, or any Capital Contributions, or sums
        due or paid thereon, nor shall they be under any obligation whatsoever
        to anyone by virtue of the security interests and liens relating to the
        Capital Call Notices, Capital Commitments or any Capital Contributions.
        Administrative Agent shall give Borrower prompt notice of any action
        taken pursuant to this SECTION 5.2(d), but failure to give such notice
        shall not affect the validity of such action or give rise to any defense
        in favor of Borrower with respect to such action.

               (e)    Event of Default. During the existence of an Event of
        Default, issuance by Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders of a
        receipt to any Person obligated to pay any Capital Contribution to
        Borrower shall be a full and complete release, discharge, and
        acquittance to such Person to the extent of any amount so paid to
        Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders. Administrative Agent,
        on behalf of Lenders, is hereby authorized and empowered, during the
        existence of an Event of Default, on behalf of Borrower or Guarantor, to
        endorse the name of Borrower or Guarantor upon any check, draft,
        instrument, receipt, instruction, or other document or items, including,
        but not limited to, all items evidencing payment upon a Capital
        Contribution of any Person to Borrower or Guarantor coming into
        Administrative Agent's possession, and to receive and apply the proceeds
        therefrom in accordance with the terms hereof. Administrative Agent on
        behalf of Lenders is hereby granted an irrevocable power of attorney,
        which is coupled with an interest, to execute all checks, drafts,
        receipts, instruments, instructions, or other documents, agreements, or
        items on behalf of Borrower or Guarantor, either before or after demand
        of payment on the


                                       39
<PAGE>

        Obligation but only during the existence of an Event of Default, as
        shall be deemed by Administrative Agent to be necessary or advisable, in
        the sole discretion, reasonably exercised, of Administrative Agent, to
        protect the security interests and liens in the Capital Commitments or
        the repayment of the Obligation, and neither Administrative Agent nor
        Lenders shall incur any liability, in the absence of gross negligence or
        willful misconduct, in connection with or arising from its exercise of
        such power of attorney.

               The application by Lenders of such funds shall, unless
        Administrative Agent shall agree otherwise in writing, be the same as
        set forth in SECTION 3.4. Borrower acknowledges that all funds so
        transferred into the Subscription Accounts shall be the property of
        Borrower.

               (f)    NO REPRESENTATIONS. Neither Agents nor Lenders shall be
        deemed to make at any time any representation or warranty as to the
        validity of any Capital Call Notice nor shall Agents or Lenders be
        accountable for Borrower's use of the proceeds of any Capital Call
        Notice.

        5.3    LENDER OFFSET. In addition to the rights granted to
Administrative Agent and Lenders under SECTION 5.2(a) hereof, each of Borrower
and each Qualified Borrower hereby grants to each Lender a right of offset, to
secure repayment of the Obligation, upon any and all monies, securities, or
other property of Borrower or such Qualified Borrower and the proceeds
therefrom, now or hereafter held or received by or in transit to Lenders, from
or for the account of Borrower or such Qualified Borrower, whether for
safekeeping, custody, pledge, transmission, collection, or otherwise, and also
upon any and all deposits (general or specified) and credits of Borrower or such
Qualified Borrower, and any and all claims of Borrower or such Qualified
Borrower against Lenders at any time existing. Lenders are hereby authorized at
any time and from time to time during the existence of an Event of Default,
without notice to Borrower or such Qualified Borrower, to offset, appropriate,
apply, and enforce such right of offset against any and all items hereinabove
referred to against the Obligation. Borrower shall be deemed directly indebted
to Lenders, in the full amount of the Obligation, and Lenders shall be entitled
to exercise the rights of offset provided for above. Administrative Agent shall
give Borrower prompt notice of any action taken pursuant to this SECTION 5.3,
but failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such action or
give rise to any defense in favor of Borrower with respect to such action

        5.4    AGREEMENT TO DELIVER ADDITIONAL COLLATERAL DOCUMENTS. Borrower
shall deliver such security agreements, financing statements, assignments, and
other collateral documents (all of which shall be deemed part of the Collateral
Documents), in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative
Agent, as Administrative Agent acting on behalf of Lenders may reasonably
request from time to time for the purpose of granting to, or maintaining or
perfecting in favor of Lenders, first and exclusive security interests in any of
the Capital Call Notices, Capital Commitments, together with other assurances of
the enforceability and priority of Lenders' liens and assurances of due
recording and documentation of the Collateral Documents or copies thereof, as
Administrative Agent may reasonably require to avoid material impairment of the
liens and security interests granted or purported to be granted pursuant to this
SECTION 5.

        5.5    SUBORDINATION OF ALL CREDIT PARTY CLAIMS. As used herein, the
term "CREDIT PARTY CLAIMS" means all debts and liabilities of any Partner to
Borrower or any Shareholder to Guarantor, whether such debts and liabilities now
exist or are hereafter incurred or arise, or whether the obligations of such
Person thereon be direct, contingent, primary, secondary, several, joint and
several, or otherwise, and


                                       40
<PAGE>

irrespective of whether such debts or liabilities be evidenced by note,
contract, open account, or otherwise, and irrespective of the Person or Persons
in whose favor such debts or liabilities may, at their inception, have been, or
may hereafter be created, or the manner in which they have been or may hereafter
be acquired by Borrower, a Qualified Borrower, or Guarantor. Credit Party Claims
shall include without limitation all rights and claims of Borrower, any
Qualified Borrower, or Guarantor against an Investor under the Constituent
Documents of such Person or under the Subscription Agreements.

        At any time that the Principal Obligation exceeds the Available
Commitment, and until the mandatory prepayment pursuant to SECTION 2.1(d) hereof
in connection therewith, if any, shall be paid and satisfied in full, and,
during the existence and continuation of an Event of Default, neither Borrower,
any Qualified Borrower, nor Guarantor shall receive or collect, directly or
indirectly any amount upon the Credit Party Claims, other than to obtain funds
required to make any mandatory prepayment pursuant to SECTION 2.1(d).

        Any liens, security interests, judgment liens, charges, or other
encumbrances upon an Investor's assets securing payment of Credit Party Claims,
including, but not limited to, any liens or security interests on an Investor's
Partnership Interest in Borrower, or an Investor's Capital Stock in Guarantor,
shall be and remain inferior and subordinate in right and payment to any liens,
security interests, judgment liens, charges, or other encumbrances upon an
Investor's assets securing such Investor's obligations and liabilities to
Lenders pursuant to any of the Collateral Documents executed by such Investor,
regardless of whether such encumbrances in favor of Borrower, a Qualified
Borrower, Guarantor or Lenders presently exist or are hereafter created or
attach. Without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, none of
Borrower, any Qualified Borrower, nor Guarantor shall: (a) exercise or enforce
any creditor's or partnership right it may have against an Investor; (b)
foreclose, repossess, sequester, or otherwise take steps or institute any action
or proceedings (judicial or otherwise, including without limitation, the
commencement of, or joinder in, any liquidation, bankruptcy, rearrangement,
debtor's relief, or insolvency proceeding) to enforce any liens, mortgages,
deeds of trust, security interest, collateral rights, judgments or other
encumbrances on assets of such Investor held by such Person; or (c) exercise any
rights or remedies against an Investor under the Constituent Documents of such
Person or the Subscription Agreements.

SECTION 6. GUARANTY

        6.1    GUARANTY OF PAYMENT. Subject to the limitation set forth below,
Guarantor hereby unconditionally guarantees to each Lender, the Letter of Credit
Issuer, and Administrative Agent the prompt payment of the Obligation in full
when due (whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration
or otherwise) and the timely performance of all other obligations under this
Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. This Guaranty is a guaranty of
payment and not of collection and is a continuing guaranty and shall apply to
the entire Obligation whenever arising. Notwithstanding any provision to the
contrary contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, to the extent
the obligations of Guarantor shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable
for any reason (including, without limitation, because of any applicable state
or federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers) then the
obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to the maximum amount that
is permissible under applicable law (whether federal or state or otherwise and
including, without limitation, Debtor Relief Laws).

        6.2    OBLIGATIONS UNCONDITIONAL. The obligations of Guarantor hereunder
are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the value, genuineness,
validity, regularity or enforceability of any of the Loan


                                       41
<PAGE>

Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to therein, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other
circumstance whatsoever which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable
discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor. Guarantor agrees that this
Guaranty may be enforced by the Lenders without the necessity at any time of
resorting to or exhausting any other security or collateral and without the
necessity at any time of having recourse to the Notes or any other of the Loan
Documents or any collateral, if any, hereafter securing the Obligation or
otherwise and Guarantor hereby waives the right to require the Lenders to
proceed against Borrower or any other Person (including a co-guarantor) or to
require the Lenders to pursue any other remedy or enforce any other right.
Guarantor further agrees that it shall have no right of subrogation, indemnity,
reimbursement or contribution against Borrower or any other Guarantor of the
Obligation for amounts paid under this Guaranty until such time as the Lenders
have been paid in full, all Commitments under this Credit Agreement have been
terminated and no Person or Governmental Authority shall have any right to
request any return or reimbursement of funds from the Lenders in connection with
monies received under the Loan Documents. Guarantor further agrees that nothing
contained herein shall prevent the Lenders from suing on the Notes or any of the
other Loan Documents or foreclosing its security interest in or Lien on any
collateral, if any, securing the Obligation or from exercising any other rights
available to it under this Credit Agreement, the Notes, any other of the Loan
Documents, or any other instrument of security, if any, and the exercise of any
of the aforesaid rights and the completion of any foreclosure proceedings shall
not constitute a discharge of Guarantor's obligations hereunder; it being the
purpose and intent of Guarantor that, subject to Guarantor's rights to raise
defenses to payment that would be available to it if Guarantor was named as a
"BORROWER" hereunder rather than as Guarantor, its obligations hereunder shall
be absolute, independent and unconditional under any and all circumstances.
Neither Guarantor's obligations under this Guaranty nor any remedy for the
enforcement thereof shall be impaired, modified, changed or released in any
manner whatsoever by an impairment, modification, change, release or limitation
of the liability of Borrower or Guarantor or by reason of the bankruptcy or
insolvency of Borrower or Guarantor. Guarantor waives any and all notice of the
creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligation and notice of
or proof of reliance by any Agent or any Lender on this Guaranty or acceptance
of this Guaranty. The Obligation, and any part of it, shall conclusively be
deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended,
amended or waived, in reliance upon this Guaranty. All dealings between Borrower
and Guarantor, on the one hand, and Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit
Issuer, and the Lenders, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively
presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guaranty.
Guarantor further agrees to all rights of set-off as set forth in SECTION 5.3.
Guarantor hereby subordinates to the Obligation all debts, liabilities and other
obligations, whether direct, indirect, primary, secondary, several, joint and
several or otherwise, and irrespective of whether such debts, liabilities and
obligations be evidenced by note, contract, open account, book entry or
otherwise, owing by Borrower to Guarantor, provided, however that Borrower may
make distributions consistent with the terms of SECTION 10.10.

        6.3    MODIFICATIONS. Guarantor agrees that: (a) all or any part of the
Collateral now or hereafter held for the Obligation, if any, may be exchanged,
compromised or surrendered from time to time; (b) none of the Lenders, Letter of
Credit Issuer, and Administrative Agent shall have any obligation to protect,
perfect, secure or insure any such security interests, liens or encumbrances now
or hereafter held, if any, for the Obligation or the properties subject thereto;
(c) the time or place of payment of the Obligation may be changed or extended,
in whole or in part, to a time certain or otherwise, and may be renewed or
accelerated, in whole or in part; (d) Borrower and any other party liable for
payment under the Loan Documents may be granted indulgences generally; (e) any
of the provisions of the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents


                                       42
<PAGE>

may be modified, amended or waived; (f) any party (including any co-guarantor)
liable for the payment thereof may be granted indulgences or be released; and
(g) any deposit balance for the credit of Borrower or any other party liable for
the payment of the Obligation or liable upon any security therefor may be
released, in whole or in part, at, before or after the stated, extended or
accelerated maturity of the Obligation, all without notice to or further assent
by Guarantor, which shall remain bound thereon, notwithstanding any such
exchange, compromise, surrender, extension, renewal, acceleration, modification,
indulgence or release.

        6.4    WAIVER OF RIGHTS. Guarantor expressly waives to the fullest
extent permitted by applicable law: (a) notice of acceptance of this Guaranty by
the Lenders and of all extensions of credit to Borrower by the Lenders; (b)
presentment and demand for payment or performance of any of the Obligation; (c)
protest and notice of dishonor or of default (except as specifically required in
this Credit Agreement) with respect to the Obligation or with respect to any
security therefor; (d) notice of the Lenders obtaining, amending, substituting
for, releasing, waiving or modifying any security interest, lien or encumbrance,
if any, hereafter securing the Obligation, or the Lenders' subordinating,
compromising, discharging or releasing such security interests, liens or
encumbrances, if any; and (e) all other notices to which Guarantor might
otherwise be entitled.

        6.5    REINSTATEMENT. The obligations of Guarantor under this SECTION 6
shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any
payment by or on behalf of any Person in respect of the Obligation is rescinded
or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Obligation, whether as
a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and
Guarantor agrees that it will indemnify Administrative Agent, the Letter of
Credit Issuer, and each Lender on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses
(including, without limitation, reasonable fees of counsel) incurred by such
Person 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 similar payment under
any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

        6.6    REMEDIES. Guarantor agrees that, as between Guarantor, on the one
hand, and Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer, and the Lenders, on
the other hand, the Obligation may be declared to be forthwith due and payable
as provided in SECTION 11.2 (and shall be deemed to have become automatically
due and payable in the circumstances provided in SECTION 11.2) notwithstanding
any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or
preventing such Obligation from becoming automatically due and payable) as
against any other Person and that, in the event of such declaration (or such
Obligation being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such
Obligation (whether or not due and payable by any other Person) shall forthwith
become due and payable by Guarantor. Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that its
obligations hereunder are secured in accordance with the terms of the Collateral
Documents and that the Lenders may exercise their remedies thereunder in
accordance with the terms thereof.

        6.7    SUBROGATION. Guarantor agrees that, until the Obligation is paid
in full in cash, it will not exercise, and hereby waives, any right of
reimbursement, subrogation, contribution, offset or other claims against
Borrower arising by contract or operation of law in connection with any payment
made or required to be made by Guarantor under this Credit Agreement or the
other Loan Documents. After the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the
Obligation (other than any part of the Obligation that represents contingent
contractual indemnities), Guarantor shall be entitled to exercise against
Borrower all such rights of


                                       43
<PAGE>

reimbursement, subrogation, contribution, and offset, and all such other claims,
to the fullest extent permitted by law.

        another type of entity, the general partnership law or applicable law
        governing such entity, of the state of formation of such Qualified
        Borrower, or the laws, statutes, rules or regulations of the State of
        New York or the United States of America to which Qualified Borrower is
        subject, or conflict with, or result in any breach of, any material
        agreement, mortgage, indenture, deed of trust or other instrument known

        and binding obligation and agreement of Borrower, enforceable in

SECTION 10. NEGATIVE COVENANTS

        So long as Lenders have any commitment to lend hereunder or to cause the
issuance of any Letter of Credit hereunder, and until payment and performance in
full of the Obligation under this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents,

change to any Constituent Document, the applicable Credit Party shall notify
Administrative Agent of such proposal. Administrative Agent shall determine, in
its sole discretion (that is, the determination of the other Lenders shall not
be required) on Administrative Agent's good faith belief, whether such proposed
amendment, modification or change to such Constituent Document is a material
amendment within ten (10) Business Days of the date on which it is deemed to
have received such notification pursuant to SECTION 13.6 hereof, and shall
promptly notify such Credit Party of its determination. If Administrative Agent
determines that the proposed amendment is a material amendment, the approval of
the Required Lenders will be required (unless the approval of all Lenders is
required consistent with the terms of SECTION 10.6 hereof), and Administrative
Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of such request for such approval,
distributing, as appropriate, the proposed amendment and any other relevant
information provided by the Credit Parties. If Administrative Agent determines

Lenders, amend its Partnership Agreement: (i) to admit new Partners to the
extent permitted by this Credit Agreement;(ii) to reflect transfers of interests

        without the consent of Administrative Agent acting alone, which consent
        shall not be unreasonably withheld. Guarantor shall not permit the
        transfer of the Capital Stock of any Shareholder without the consent of
        Administrative Agent acting alone, which consent shall not be

        Included Investor, or the Capital Stock by an Included Investor, other
        than a transfer: (i) to another Included Investor or its Affiliate; (ii)
        to an Affiliate or the Credit Provider of such Included Investor; (iii)

        Funding Ratio meeting the Applicable Requirement, or in the case of a
        Bank Holding Company, Adequately Capitalized status); or (v) as
        otherwise permitted by such Investor's Investor Letter; shall also
        require the consent of the Required Lenders.

                (b) ADMISSION OF INVESTORS. Borrower shall not admit any Person
        as an additional Partner without the prior written consent of
        Administrative Agent acting alone (which consent shall not be

        additional Shareholder



                                       57
<PAGE>

        that: (i) any Person admitted as a substitute or new Shareholder or
        Partner (whether due to a transfer by an existing Investor or otherwise)
        (a "SUBSEQUENT INVESTOR") shall, as a condition to such admission,
        deliver an Investor Letter and provide other documentation similar to
        that described in SECTIONS 7.1(l) and 7.1(m) satisfactory to
        Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion; and (ii) any existing
        Investor that is a transferee from another Investor shall provide
        confirmation of its obligations under its Investor Letter with respect
        to any increase in its Capital Commitment relating to such transfer,
        and, to the extent not addressed in the documentation previously
        delivered by such Investor, evidence of its authority to assume such
        increased Capital Commitment, all as satisfactory to Administrative
        Agent in its reasonable discretion. In the event any Person is admitted
        as an additional or substitute Investor, the Credit Parties will
        promptly deliver to Administrative Agent a revised EXHIBIT A to this
        Credit Agreement, containing the names and addresses of each Investor
        and the Capital Commitments of each.

                (d) FUNDING REQUIREMENTS. Prior to the effectiveness of any
        transfer by an Included Investor, Borrower shall calculate whether,
        taking into account the Capital Commitments of the Included Investors as
        if such transfer had occurred, the transfer would cause the Principal
        Obligation to exceed the Available Commitment, and shall make any
        Capital Calls required to pay any resulting mandatory prepayment under
        SECTION 2.1(d) prior to permitting such transfer.

        10.6 CAPITAL COMMITMENTS. Neither Borrower nor Guarantor shall: (a)

Lenders: (i) issue any Capital Call Notices other than as contemplated by
SECTION 5.2(c) hereof; (ii) cancel, reduce, excuse, defer, or abate the Capital
Commitment of any Included Investor as provided in the Constituent Documents of
such Credit Party; or (iii) excuse any Investor from or permit any Investor to

the Obligation hereunder.

promptly be brought into compliance with relevant Environmental Laws, Borrower:

        distributions if: (i) any Event of Default exists; or (ii) a Potential
        Default related to SECTION 11.1(a) exists; provided, however, that each
        Credit Party shall have the right to make distributions or pay dividends
        in the ordinary course in order to ensure that Guarantor continues to
        qualify as a REIT.

                (c) Guarantor shall not, while any Investor REIT Obligation is
        outstanding, make any payment to purchase, redeem, retire, or acquire

        acquire such Capital Stock.

        10.11 LIMITATION ON DEBT. Neither Borrower nor Guarantor shall incur:

obtain Indebtedness secured by one or more Properties where such mortgage
financing is nonrecourse to Borrower and Guarantor other than typical so-called

Borrower held as General Partner, except that General Partner may, so long as
prior written notice is delivered to Administrative Agent, transfer its
Partnership Interest in Borrower to an entity that is wholly-owned and
controlled by AMB Property Corporation, without the consent of Administrative
Agent or Lenders.

        other knowledge thereof;

                (p) the issuance to Borrower of any administrative order by any
        Governmental Authority under any Environmental Law, or the issuance to
        Borrower of any injunctive order by any court under any Environmental
        Law, which, in Administrative Agent's reasonable judgment, will result
        in a Material Adverse Effect or

                (q) Investors having Capital Commitments aggregating fifteen

intention to accelerate or other notice of any kind all of which Borrower and
Guarantor and each Qualified Borrower hereby expressly waives, anything
contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding;
(d) exercise any right, privilege, or power set forth in SECTIONS 5.2 and 5.3
hereof, including, but not limited to, the initiation of Capital Call Notices of

the Obligation shall thereupon become due and payable concurrently therewith,
without any further action by Administrative Agent or Lenders, or any of them,
and without presentment, demand, protest, notice of default, notice of
acceleration, or of intention to accelerate or other notice of any kind, all of
which Borrower, Guarantor, and each Qualified Borrower hereby expressly waives.

        11.3 PERFORMANCE BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. Should any Credit Party or any
Qualified Borrower fail to perform any covenant, duty, or agreement contained
herein or in any of the Loan Documents, and such failure continues beyond any
applicable cure period, Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to,
perform or attempt to perform such covenant, duty, or agreement on behalf of
such Person. In such event, each Credit Party or each such Qualified Borrower
shall, at the request of Administrative Agent promptly pay any amount expended
by Administrative Agent in such performance or attempted performance to
Administrative Agent at its principal office in San Francisco, together with
interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of such expenditure until
paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is expressly understood that neither
Administrative Agent nor Lenders assume any liability or responsibility for the
performance of any duties of Borrower, Guarantor or any Qualified Borrower, or
any related Person hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents or other control
over the management and affairs of Borrower, Guarantor or any Qualified
Borrower, or any related Person, nor by any such action shall Administrative
Agent or Lenders be deemed to create a partnership arrangement with any Credit
Party, any Qualified Borrower, or any related Person.

SECTION 12. AGENTS

        12.1 APPOINTMENT.

                (a) AUTHORITY OF AGENTS. Each Lender hereby designates and
        appoints Bank of America, N.A. as Administrative Agent of such Lender to
        act as specified herein and the other Loan Documents, and each such
        Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent, as the agent for such
        Lender, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this
        Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such
        powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated by the terms
        hereof and of the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers
        as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to
        the contrary elsewhere herein and in the other Loan Documents, the
        Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities,
        except those expressly set forth herein and therein, or any fiduciary
        relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions,
        responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into
        this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or shall
        otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. The provisions of this
        SECTION 12.1 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and
        the Lenders and none of the Credit Parties, any Qualified Borrower,
        General Partner, any Investor, or any Affiliate of the foregoing (a
        "BORROWER PARTY") shall have any rights as a third-party beneficiary of
        the provisions hereof (except for the provisions that explicitly relate
        to Borrower in SECTION 12.10). In performing its functions and duties
        under this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Administrative
        Agent shall act solely as an agent of the Lenders and does not assume
        and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation or relationship
        of agency or trust with or for any Borrower Party. Notwithstanding any
        provision to the contrary elsewhere herein and in the other Loan
        Documents, neither the Syndication Agent nor the Documentation Agent
        shall have any duties or responsibilities, or any fiduciary
        relationship, with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions,
        responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into
        this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or shall
        otherwise exist against the Syndication Agent or the Documentation
        Agent. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere herein
        and in the other Loan Documents, neither the Syndication Agent nor the
        Documentation Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities, or any
        fiduciary relationship, with any Lender, and no implied covenants,
        functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be
        read into this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or
        shall otherwise exist against the Syndication Agent or the Documentation
        Agent.

                (b) RELEASE OF COLLATERAL. The Lenders irrevocably authorize
        Administrative Agent, at the Administrative Agent's option and in its
        discretion, to release any security interest in or Lien on any
        Collateral granted to or held by the Administrative Agent: (i) upon
        termination of this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
        termination of the Commitments and all Letters of Credit and payment in
        full of all of the Obligation, including all fees and indemnified costs
        and expenses that are then due and payable pursuant to the terms of the
        Loan Documents; and (ii) if approved by the Lenders pursuant to the
        terms of SECTION 13.1. Upon the request of Administrative Agent, the
        Lenders will confirm in writing Administrative Agent's authority to
        release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this SECTION
        12.1(b).



                                       63
<PAGE>

        12.2 DELEGATION OF DUTIES. Administrative Agent may execute any of its
duties hereunder or under the other Loan Documents by or through agents or
attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of legal counsel, accountants,
and other professionals selected by Administrative Agent concerning all matters
pertaining to such duties. Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to any
Lender for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact
selected by it with reasonable care, nor shall it be liable for any action taken
or suffered in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such Persons.

        12.3 EXCULPATORY PROVISIONS. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of
its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates
shall be liable to any Lender for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be
taken by it or such Person under or in connection herewith or in connection with
any of the other Loan Documents (except for its or such Person's own gross
negligence or willful misconduct) or responsible in any manner to any of the
Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any
of the Borrower Parties contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents
or in any certificate, report, document, financial statement or other written or
oral statement referred to or provided for in, or received by Administrative
Agent under or in connection herewith or in connection with the other Loan
Documents, or enforceability or sufficiency therefor of any of the other Loan
Documents, or for any failure of a Borrower Party to perform its obligations
hereunder or thereunder. Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to any
Lender for the effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability,
collectibility or sufficiency of this Credit Agreement, or any of the other Loan
Documents or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made
herein or therein or made by any Borrower Party in any written or oral statement
or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports, certificates or
any other documents in connection herewith or therewith furnished or made by
Administrative Agent to the Lenders or by or on behalf of the Borrower Parties
to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or be required to ascertain or inquire
as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions,
covenants or agreements contained herein or therein or as to the use of the
proceeds of the Loans or the use of the Letters of Credit or of the existence or
possible existence of any Potential Default or Event of Default or to inspect
the properties, books or records of the Borrower Parties. Administrative Agent
is not a trustee for the Lenders and owes no fiduciary duty to the Lenders. Each
Lender recognizes and agrees that Administrative Agent shall not be required to
determine independently whether the conditions described in SECTIONS 7.2(a) or
7.2(b) have been satisfied and, when Administrative Agent disburses funds to
Borrower or a Qualified Borrower, causes Letters of Credit to be issued or
accepts any Borrower Guaranties, it may rely fully upon statements contained in
the relevant requests by Borrower or a Qualified Borrower.

        12.4 RELIANCE ON COMMUNICATIONS. Administrative Agent shall be entitled
to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing,
resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram,
telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other
document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have
been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and
statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to any of
the Borrower Parties, independent accountants and other experts selected by
Administrative Agent with reasonable care). Administrative Agent may deem and
treat each Lender as the owner of its interests hereunder for all purposes
unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall
have been filed with the Administrative Agent in accordance with SECTION
13.11(c). Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing
to take any action under this Credit Agreement or under any of the other Loan
Documents unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the
Lenders as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its
satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and



                                       64
<PAGE>

expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take
any such action. Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in
acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder or under any of the other Loan
Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or to the extent
specifically required, all the Lenders) and such request and any action taken or
failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders (including
their successors and assigns).

        12.5 NOTICE OF DEFAULT. Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have
knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Potential Default or Event of
Default hereunder unless Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender
or a Borrower Party referring to the Loan Document, describing such Potential
Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a "notice of
default." In the event that Administrative Agent receives such a notice,
Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders.
Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Potential
Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required
Lenders and as is permitted by the Loan Documents.

        12.6 NON-RELIANCE ON ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND LENDERS. Each Lender
expressly acknowledges that neither Administrative Agent, BAS nor any of their
officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates has made
any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative
Agent or any affiliate thereof hereinafter taken, including any review of the
affairs of any Borrower Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation
or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to
the Administrative Agent and BAS that it has, independently and without reliance
upon the Administrative Agent or BAS or any other Lender, and based on such
documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal
of and investigation into the business, assets, operations, property, financial
and other conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of the Borrower Parties and
made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Credit
Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without
reliance upon the Administrative Agent or BAS or any other Lender, and based on
such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time,
continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or
not taking action under this Credit Agreement, and to make such investigation as
it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, assets, operations,
property, financial and other conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of the
Borrower Parties. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly
required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder,
the Administrative Agent and BAS shall not have any duty or responsibility to
provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business,
operations, assets, property, financial or other conditions, prospects or
creditworthiness of the Borrower Parties which may come into the possession of
the Administrative Agent, BAS or any of their officers, directors, employees,
agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

        12.7 INDEMNIFICATION. The Lenders agree to indemnify Administrative
Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Credit
Parties and without limiting the obligation of the Credit Parties to do so),
ratably according to their respective Pro Rata Shares, from and against any and
all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any
time (including without limitation at any time following payment in full of the
Obligation) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Administrative Agent
in its capacity as such in any way relating to or arising out of this Credit
Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or
referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby
or any action taken or omitted by Administrative Agent under or in connection
with any of the foregoing; provided



                                       65
<PAGE>

that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of Administrative Agent. If any indemnity furnished to Administrative
Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of Administrative Agent, be
insufficient or become impaired, Administrative Agent may call for additional
indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until
such additional indemnity is furnished. The agreements in this SECTION 12.7
shall survive the payment of the Obligation.

        12.8 ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT IN ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY. With respect to
the Loans made and Letters of Credit issued and all obligations owing to it,
Administrative Agent acting in its individual capacity shall have the same
rights and powers under this Credit Agreement as any Lender and may exercise the
same as though it were not an agent, and the terms "LENDER" and "LENDERS" shall
include Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. Administrative Agent
acting in its individual capacity and its affiliates may make loans to, accept
deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with Borrower or any
other Borrower Party as though Administrative Agent were not an agent hereunder
and without any duty to account therefor to the other Lenders.

        12.9 SUCCESSOR AGENT. Administrative Agent may, at any time, resign upon
twenty (20) days written notice to the Lenders and the Credit Parties. Upon any
such resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders shall have
the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent (subject, except when an
Event of Default exists, to the consent of the Borrower, not to be unreasonably
withheld). If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by
the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within sixty
(60) days after the notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative
Agent shall select a successor Administrative Agent (subject, except when an
Event of Default exists, to the consent of Borrower, not to be unreasonably
withheld); provided such successor is an Eligible Assignee (or if no Eligible
Assignee shall have been so appointed by the retiring Administrative Agent and
shall have accepted such appointment, then the Lenders shall perform all
obligations of the retiring Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if
any, as a successor Administrative Agent shall have been appointed and shall
have accepted such appointment as provided for above). Upon the acceptance of
any appointment as an Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such
successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with
all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative
Agent, and shall assume the duties and obligations of such retiring
Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged
from its duties and obligations as Administrative Agent under this Credit
Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the provisions of this SECTION 12.9
shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it
while it was Administrative Agent under this Credit Agreement.

        12.10 RELIANCE BY CREDIT PARTIES. The Credit Parties and any Qualified
Borrower shall be entitled to rely upon, and to act or refrain from acting on
the basis of, any notice, statement, certificate, waiver or other document or
instrument delivered by Administrative Agent to Borrower or such other Person so
long as Administrative Agent is purporting to act in its respective capacity as
Administrative Agent pursuant to this Credit Agreement, and the Credit Parties
and the Qualified Borrowers shall not be responsible or liable to any Lender (or
to any Participant, as defined in SECTION 13.11(b) hereof or to any Assignee, as
defined in SECTION 13.11(c) hereof), or as a result of any action or failure to
act (including actions or omissions which would otherwise constitute defaults
hereunder) which is based upon such reliance upon Administrative Agent. The
Credit Parties and the Qualified Borrowers shall be entitled to treat
Administrative Agent as the properly



                                       66
<PAGE>

authorized Administrative Agent pursuant to this Credit Agreement until Borrower
shall have received notice of resignation, and such Persons shall not be
obligated to recognize any successor Administrative Agent until Borrower shall
have received written notification satisfactory to it of the appointment of such
successor.

SECTION 13. MISCELLANEOUS

Document, nor any of the terms hereof or thereof, may be amended, waived,

termination is in writing and signed by Administrative Agent (based upon the
approval of the Required Lenders), or the Required Lenders, on the one hand, and

                waiving the applicability of the Default Rate), or otherwise

                        (v) amend the terms of this SECTION 13.1.



                                       67
<PAGE>

        Notwithstanding the above: (A) no provisions of SECTION 12 may be
amended or modified without the consent of Administrative Agent; (B) no
provisions of SECTION 2.8 may be amended or modified without the consent of the
Letter of Credit Issuer; and (C) SECTIONS 9 and 10 specify the requirements for
waivers of the Affirmative Covenants and Negative Covenants listed therein, and
any amendment to a provision of SECTION 9 or SECTION 10 shall require the
consent of the Lenders that are specified therein as required for a waiver
thereof.

        Notwithstanding the fact that the consent of all the Lenders is required
in certain circumstances as set forth above and in SECTION 10: (1) each Lender
is entitled to vote as such Lender sees fit on any reorganization plan that
affects the Loans or the Letters of Credit, and each Lender acknowledges that
the provisions of Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code supersede the unanimous
consent provisions set forth herein; (2) the Required Lenders may consent to
allow a Borrower Party to use cash collateral in the context of a bankruptcy or
insolvency proceeding; and (3) Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion,
agree to the modification or waiver of any of the other terms of this Credit
Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any action or failure to act
by Borrower, if such modification, waiver, or consent is of an administrative
nature.

        If Administrative Agent shall request the consent of any Lender to any
amendment, change, waiver, discharge, termination, consent or exercise of rights
covered by this Credit Agreement, and not receive such consent or denial thereof
in writing within ten (10) Business Days of the making of such request by
Administrative Agent, as the case may be, such Lender shall be deemed to have
given its consent to the request.

        13.2 SHARING OF OFFSETS. Each Lender and Administrative Agent agrees
that if it shall, through the exercise of any right of counterclaim, offset,
banker's lien or otherwise, receive payment of a portion of the aggregate amount
of principal, interest and fees due to such Lender hereunder which constitutes a
greater proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest and fees then
due to such Lender hereunder or under its Note than the proportion received by
any other Lender in respect of the aggregate amount of principal, interest and
fees due with respect to such other Lender's Note or the Obligation to such
Lender under this Credit Agreement, then such Lender shall purchase
participations in the Obligation under this Credit Agreement held by such other
Lenders so that all such recoveries of principal, interest and fees with respect
to this Credit Agreement, the Notes and the Obligation thereunder held by
Lenders shall be pro rata according to each Lender's Commitment (determined as
of the date hereof and regardless of any change in any Lender's Commitment
caused by such Lender's receipt of a proportionately greater or lesser payment
hereunder).

        13.3 SHARING OF COLLATERAL. To the extent permitted by applicable law,
each Lender and Administrative Agent, in its capacity as a Lender, agrees that
if it shall, through the receipt of any proceeds from a Capital Call or the
exercise of any remedies under any Collateral Documents, receive or be entitled
to receive payment of a portion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest
and fees due to it under this Credit Agreement which constitutes a greater
proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest and fees then due to
such Lender under this Credit Agreement or its Note than the proportion received
by any other Lender in respect of the aggregate amount of principal, interest
and fees due with respect to any other Lender's Note or the Obligation to such
Lender under this Credit Agreement, then such Lender or Administrative Agent, in
its capacity as a Lender, as the case may be, shall purchase participations in
the



                                       68
<PAGE>

Obligation under this Credit Agreement held by such other Lenders so that all
such recoveries of principal, interest and fees with respect to this Credit
Agreement, the Notes and the Obligation thereunder held by Lenders shall be pro
rata according to each Lender's Commitment (determined as of the date hereof and
regardless of any change in any Lender's Commitment caused by such Lender's
receipt of a proportionately greater or lesser payment hereunder). Each Lender
hereby authorizes and directs Administrative Agent to coordinate and implement
the sharing of collateral contemplated by this SECTION 13.3 prior to the
distribution of proceeds from Capital Calls or proceeds from the exercise of
remedies under the Collateral Documents prior to making any distributions of
such proceeds to each Lender or Administrative Agent, in their respective
capacity as Lenders.

        13.4 WAIVER. No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, on the
part of Agents or Lenders, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The rights of
Agents and Lenders hereunder and under the Loan Documents shall be in addition
to all other rights provided by law. No modification or waiver of any provision
of this Credit Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents, nor
consent to departure therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing and no such
consent or waiver shall extend beyond the particular case and purpose involved.
No notice or demand given in any case shall constitute a waiver of the right to
take other action in the same, similar or other instances without such notice or
demand. Subject to SECTION 13.1, Administrative Agent acting on behalf of all
Lenders, and the Credit Parties may from time to time enter into agreements
amending or changing any provision of this Credit Agreement or the rights of
Lenders or the Credit Parties hereunder, or may grant waivers or consents to a
departure from the due performance of the obligations of the Credit Parties
hereunder, any such agreement, waiver or consent made with such written consent
of Administrative Agent being effective to bind all Lenders, except as provided
in SECTION 13.1.

        13.5 PAYMENT OF EXPENSES; INDEMNITY.

                (a) Borrower agrees to pay (within five (5) days after the
        receipt of written notice from Administrative Agent) all out-of-pocket
        costs and expenses of Administrative Agent (including without limitation
        the reasonable fees and expenses of Administrative Agent's legal
        counsel) reasonably incurred by it in connection with the negotiation,
        preparation, execution and delivery of this Credit Agreement, the Notes,
        and the other Loan Documents and any and all amendments, modifications
        and supplements thereof or thereto, and, if an Event of Default exists,
        all out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Administrative Agent and Lenders
        (including, without limitation, the reasonable attorneys' fees of
        Administrative Agent's and Lenders' legal counsel) reasonably incurred
        by them in connection with the presentation and enforcement of, and
        Administrative Agents' and Lenders' rights under, this Credit Agreement,
        the Notes, and the other Loan Documents.

                (b) Borrower agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent and each
        of Lenders and their respective directors, officers, employees,
        attorneys and agents (each such Person, including without limitation
        Agent and each of Lenders, being called an "INDEMNITEE") against, and to
        hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, actions,
        judgments, suits, disbursements, penalties, damages (other than
        consequential damages), liabilities and related expenses, including
        reasonable counsel fees and expenses, incurred by or asserted against
        any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result

                        (i) the execution and delivery of this Credit Agreement
                or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument
                contemplated thereby,

                        (ii) the use or misuse of the proceeds of the Loans,

                        (iii) the fraudulent actions or misrepresentations of
                any Credit Party or its Affiliates in connection with the
                transactions contemplated by this Credit Agreement and the other
                Loan Documents, or

                        (iv) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding
                relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee
                is a party thereto;

        provided, however, that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee,
        apply to any such losses, claims, actions, judgments, suits,
        disbursements, penalties, damages, liabilities or related expenses
        arising from gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

                (c) In addition to and without limiting the foregoing, the
        Credit Parties hereby indemnify and hold the Indemnitees harmless from
        and against, and agree to reimburse any Indemnitee on demand for, and
        agree to defend the Indemnitees against, any and all Environmental
        Damages (as hereinafter defined), incurred by Administrative Agent or a
        Lender. WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE FOREGOING INDEMNITY SHALL APPLY TO EACH
        INDEMNITEE WITH RESPECT TO ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGES WHICH IN WHOLE OR IN
        PART ARE CAUSED BY OR ARISE OUT OF THE NEGLIGENCE OF SUCH (OR ANY OTHER)
        INDEMNITEE. HOWEVER, SUCH INDEMNITY SHALL NOT APPLY TO A PARTICULAR
        INDEMNITEE TO THE EXTENT THAT THE SUBJECT OF THE INDEMNIFICATION IS
        CAUSED BY OR ARISES OUT OF THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF
        THAT PARTICULAR INDEMNITEE.

                The term "ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGES" means all claims, demands,
        liabilities (including strict liability), losses, damages (including
        consequential damages), causes of action, judgments, penalties, fines,
        costs and expenses (including reasonable fees, costs and expenses of
        attorneys, consultants, contractors, experts and laboratories), of any
        and every kind or character, contingent or otherwise, matured or
        unmatured, known or unknown, direct or indirect, foreseeable or
        unforeseeable, made, incurred, suffered or brought at any time and from
        time to time and arising in whole or in part from:

                        (i) The presence of any Hazardous Material on any
                Property, or any escape, seepage, leakage, spillage, emission,

                from any Property, or the migration or release or threatened
                migration or release of any Hazardous Material to, from or

                transport or disposal of any Hazardous Material by Borrower, or
                any party for whose actions Borrower is liable or in connection
                with any Property; or

<PAGE>

                        (iii) The breach of any representation, warranty,
                covenant or agreement contained in SECTION 8.15 (to the extent
                such breach relates to Environmental Requirements), SECTION 8.16
                or SECTION 9.9 (to the extent such breach relates to
                Environmental Requirements), or SECTION 10.8 of this Credit
                Agreement; or

                        (iv) Any violation of any Environmental Requirement,
                regardless of whether any act, omission, event or circumstance
                giving rise to the violation constituted a violation at the time
                of the occurrence or inception of such act, omission, event or
                circumstance; or

                        (v) Any Environmental Liability with respect to any
                Property, or the filing or imposition of any Environmental Lien
                against any Property, because of, resulting from, in connection
                with, or arising out of any of the matters referred to in
                SUBSECTIONS (i) through (iv) preceding.

                (d) WITHOUT LIMITATION OF AND SUBJECT TO THE FOREGOING, EACH
        CREDIT PARTY INTENDS AND AGREES THAT THE FOREGOING INDEMNITIES SHALL
        APPLY TO EACH INDEMNITEE WITH RESPECT TO ALL CLAIMS, DAMAGES, LOSSES,
        LIABILITIES, AND EXPENSES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE REASONABLE
        FEES AND EXPENSES OF COUNSEL) WHICH IN WHOLE OR IN PART ARE CAUSED BY OR
        ARISE OUT OF THE NEGLIGENCE OR CLAIMS OF NEGLIGENCE OF SUCH OR ANY OTHER
        INDEMNITEE OR ANY STRICT LIABILITY OR CLAIMS OF STRICT LIABILITY.

                (e) The provisions of this SECTION 13.5 shall remain operative
        and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the
        Commitment Period, the consummation of the transactions contemplated
        hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the occurrence of the Commitment
        Termination Date, the invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability of any
        term or provision of this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document,
        or any investigation made by or on behalf of Lenders. All amounts due
        under this SECTION 13.5 shall be payable promptly on written demand

        13.10 ENTIRETY AND AMENDMENTS. The Loan Documents embody the entire
agreement between the parties and supersede all prior agreements and
understandings, if any, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and
this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended only by an
instrument in writing executed by the Credit Parties and Administrative Agent,
on behalf of Lenders.

        13.11 PARTIES BOUND; ASSIGNMENT.

                (a) PARTIES BOUND. The provisions of this Credit Agreement shall
        be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
        respective successors and assigns, except that neither the Credit
        Parties nor any Qualified Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any
        of their respective rights under this Credit Agreement without the prior
        written consent of all Lenders.

                (b) PARTICIPATIONS. Any Lender may at any time grant to one or
        more banks or other institutions (each a "PARTICIPANT") a participating
        interest in its Commitment or any or all of its Loans, provided that any
        such participation shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000, and, if
        in a greater amount, in integral multiples of $1,000,000. In the event
        of any such grant by a Lender of a participating interest to a
        Participant, such Lender shall remain responsible for the performance of
        its obligations hereunder, and the Credit Parties and Administrative
        Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in
        connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Credit
        Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which any Lender may grant such a
        participating interest shall provide that such Lender shall retain the
        sole right and responsibility to enforce the Obligation including,
        without limitation, the right to approve any amendment, modification or
        waiver of any provision of this Credit Agreement. The Credit Parties
        agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of
        SECTIONS 4, and 5.3 hereof with respect to its participating interest,
        provided, however, that in no event shall Borrower be obligated to pay
        to such Participant amounts greater than those Borrower would have been
        required to pay to the granting Lender in the absence of such
        participation. An assignment or other transfer which is not permitted by
        SUBSECTION (c) below shall be given effect for purposes of this Credit
        Agreement only to the extent of a participating interest granted in
        accordance with this SUBSECTION (b).

                (c) ASSIGNMENTS. Any Lender may (at its expense, except for
        assignments to or from Administrative Agent, which shall be at the
        expense of Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Credit Agreement),
        and, following a demand by Borrower (following a demand by such Lender
        for payment of any amounts under SECTION 4.6) shall, at any time assign
        to one or more Eligible Assignees (an "ASSIGNEE") all, or a
        proportionate part of all (in a constant, not varying percentage), of
        its rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement and its Note, and
        such Assignee shall assume such rights and obligations, pursuant to an
        Assignment and Acceptance Agreement; provided, however, that:

                        (i) this SECTION 13.11(c) shall not restrict an
                assignment or other transfer by any Lender to a Federal Reserve
                Bank, but no such assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank shall
                release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder;

                        (ii) except in the case of an assignment to another
                Lender, or the assignment of all of a Lender's rights and
                obligations under this Credit Agreement, any assignment shall



                                       74
<PAGE>

                be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000, and, if in a greater
                amount, in integral multiples of $1,000,000;

                        (iii) if the assignee is not incorporated under the laws
                of the United States of America or a state thereof, it shall
                deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent certification as to
                exemption from deduction or withholding of Taxes in accordance
                with SECTION 4.6;

                        (iv) the parties to each such assignment shall execute
                and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance
                Agreement, the Assignee shall pay to the transferor Lender an
                amount equal to the purchase price agreed between such
                transferor Lender and such Assignee, and the transferor Lender
                shall deliver payment of a processing and recordation fee of
                $3,500 to Administrative Agent (except in the case of a transfer
                at the demand of Borrower, in which case either Borrower or the
                transferee Lender shall pay such fee);

                        (v) each assignment made as a result of a demand by
                Borrower shall be arranged by Borrower after consultation with
                Administrative Agent and shall be either an assignment of all of
                the rights and obligations of the assigning Lender under this
                Credit Agreement or an assignment of a portion of such rights
                and obligations made concurrently with another assignment or
                assignments that together constitute an assignment of all of the
                rights and obligations of the assigning Lender; and

                        (vi) Bank of America shall retain a Commitment equal to
                or exceeding the Commitment of the Lender with the otherwise
                highest Commitment.

                (d) CONSEQUENCES OF ASSIGNMENT. Upon execution and delivery of
        such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement and payment by such Assignee to
        such transferor Lender of an amount equal to the purchase price agreed
        between such transferor Lender and such Assignee, such Assignee shall be
        a Lender party to this Credit Agreement and shall have all the rights
        and obligations of a Lender with a Commitment as set forth in such
        Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, and the transferor Lender shall be
        released from its obligations hereunder to a corresponding extent, and
        no further consent or action by any party shall be required. Upon the
        consummation of any assignment pursuant to this SECTION 13.11(c), the
        transferor Lender, Administrative Agent and Borrower shall make
        appropriate arrangements so that, if required, new Notes are issued to
        such Assignee and the transferor Lender.

                (e) REGISTER OF LENDERS. Administrative Agent shall maintain at
        its principal offices in San Francisco or at such other location as
        Administrative Agent shall designate in writing to each Lender and
        Borrower, a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance Agreement delivered
        to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names
        and addresses of Lenders, the amount of each Lender's Pro Rata Share of
        the Commitments and the Loans, and the name and address of each Lender's
        agent for service of process in New York City (the "REGISTER"). The
        entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all
        purposes, absent manifest error, and Credit Party, Administrative Agent
        and Lenders shall treat each person or entity whose name is recorded in
        the



                                       75
<PAGE>

        Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Credit
        Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection and copying by
        Borrower or any Lender during normal business hours upon reasonable
        prior notice to Administrative Agent. A Lender may change its address
        and its agent for service of process upon written notice to
        Administrative Agent, which notice shall be effective upon actual
        receipt by Administrative Agent, which receipt will be acknowledged by
        Administrative Agent upon request. Upon receipt of any Assignment and
        Acceptance Agreement Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and
        Acceptance Agreement has been completed, fully-executed and is
        substantially in the form of EXHIBIT O hereto: (i) accept such an
        Assignment and Acceptance Agreement; (ii) record the information
        contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof
        to Borrower.

                (f) DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION. Any Lender may furnish any
        information concerning the Credit Parties, General Partner, or any
        Investor in the possession of such Lender from time to time to assignees
        and participants (including prospective assignees and participants),
        subject, however, to the provisions of SECTION 13.17 hereof.

        13.12 LENDER DEFAULT. If for any reason any Lender shall fail or refuse
to abide by its obligations hereunder, and such Lender shall not have cured such
failure within five (5) Business Days of its occurrence (a "LENDER DEFAULT"),
then, in addition to the rights and remedies that may be available to Agents,
Lenders, or Borrower at law or in equity, such Lender's right to vote on matters
related to this Credit Agreement, and to participate in the administration of
the Loans, the Letters of Credit, and this Credit Agreement, shall be suspended
during the pendency of such failure or refusal. Administrative Agent shall have
the right, but not the obligation, in its sole discretion, to acquire at par all
of such Lender's Commitment, including its Pro Rata Share in the Obligation
under this Credit Agreement. In the event that Administrative Agent does not
exercise its right to so acquire all of such Lender's interests, then the other
Agents and each Lender that is not in Default (a "CURRENT PARTY") shall then,
thereupon, have the right, but not the obligation, in its sole discretion to
acquire at par (or if more than one Current Party exercises such right, each
Current Party shall have the right to acquire, pro rata) such Lender's
Commitment, including its Pro Rata Share in the outstanding Obligation under
this Credit Agreement.

        13.13 MAXIMUM INTEREST. Regardless of any provision contained in any of
the Loan Documents, Lenders shall never be entitled to receive, collect or apply
as interest on the Obligation any amount in excess of the Maximum Rate, and, in
the event that Lenders ever receive, collect or apply as interest any such
excess, the amount which would be excessive interest shall be deemed to be a
partial prepayment of principal and treated hereunder as such; and, if the
principal amount of the Obligation is paid in full, any remaining excess shall
forthwith be paid to Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower. In
determining whether or not the interest paid or payable under any specific
contingency exceeds the Maximum Rate, Borrower and Lenders shall, to the maximum
extent permitted under applicable law: (a) characterize any nonprincipal payment
as an expense, fee or premium rather than as interest; (b) exclude voluntary
prepayments and the effects thereof; and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate and
spread, in equal parts, the total amount of interest throughout the entire
contemplated term of the Obligation so that the interest rate does not exceed
the Maximum Rate; provided that, if the Obligation is paid and performed in full
prior to the end of the full contemplated term thereof, and if the interest
received for the actual period of existence thereof exceeds the Maximum Rate,
Lenders shall refund to Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower the amount
of such excess or credit the amount of such excess against the principal amount
of the Obligation and, in such event,



                                       76
<PAGE>

Lenders shall not be subject to any penalties provided by any laws for
contracting for, charging, taking, reserving or receiving interest in excess of
the Maximum Rate.

        13.14 HEADINGS. Section headings are for convenience of reference only
and shall in no way affect the interpretation of this Credit Agreement.

        13.15 SURVIVAL. All representations and warranties made by the Credit
Parties and the Qualified Borrowers herein shall survive delivery of the Notes,
the making of the Loans and the issuance of the Letters of Credit.

        13.16 LIMITED LIABILITY OF PARTNERS. Except with respect to any losses
arising from Borrower's or General Partner's intentional misrepresentation
hereunder, fraud, or willful misapplication of proceeds in contravention of this
Credit Agreement, for which there shall be full recourse to General Partner,
none of the Partners, including the General Partner, shall have any personal,
partnership, corporate or trust liability for the payment or performance of the
Obligation. Nothing contained in this SECTION 13.16 or in any of the other
provisions of the Loan Documents shall be construed to limit, restrict, or
impede the obligations, the liabilities, and indebtedness of Borrower, or of any
Investor to make its Capital Contributions to Borrower or Guarantor, in
accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement, or the Articles of
Incorporation and Subscription Agreements, as applicable, or pursuant to the
terms of such Investor's Investor Letter. Nothing contained in this SECTION
13.16 shall be deemed to expressly or implicitly limit or modify the liability
of each Qualified Borrower to Lenders under the Qualified Borrower Notes;
provided, however, that such liability shall not extend beyond such Qualified
Borrower and its properties and assets. Notwithstanding anything contained in
this SECTION 13.16, the payment and performance of the Obligation shall be fully
recourse to Borrower (but not Borrower's General Partner) and its properties and
assets.

        13.17 AVAILABILITY OF RECORDS; CONFIDENTIALITY. Borrower acknowledges
and agrees that Administrative Agent may provide to Lenders, and that
Administrative Agent and each Lender may provide to any Participant or Assignee
or proposed Participant or Assignee, originals or copies of this Credit
Agreement, all Loan Documents and all other documents, certificates, opinions,
letters of credit, reports, and other material information of every nature or
description, and may communicate all oral information, at any time submitted by
or on behalf of any Credit Party, any Investor, or any Qualified Borrower or
received by any of Agents or a Lender in connection with the Loans, the Letter
of Credit Liability, the Commitments or a Credit Party; provided, however, that,
prior to any such delivery or communication, the Lender, Participant, or
Assignee, as the case may be, shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of all
data and information which constitutes Confidential Information. Anything herein
to the contrary notwithstanding, the provisions of this SECTION 13.17 shall not
preclude or restrict any such party from disclosing any Confidential
Information: (a) with the prior written consent of the appropriate Credit Party;
(b) upon the order of or pursuant to the rules and regulations of any
Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over such party; (c) in connection
with any audit by an independent public accountant of such party, provided such
auditor thereto agrees to be bound by the provisions of this SECTION 13.17; (d)
to examiners or auditors of any applicable Governmental Authority which examines
such party's books and records while conducting such examination or audit; or
(e) as otherwise specifically required by law.
