                  (c) On the Closing Date, the Revolving Loans outstanding under
the Existing Credit Agreement, as amended and restated hereby, shall be
continued hereunder.

                  3.2. Procedure for Revolving Loan Borrowing. The Borrower may
borrow under the Revolving Commitments during the Revolving Commitment Period on
any Business Day, provided that the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent
irrevocable notice (which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent
prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, (a) three Business Days prior to the
requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, or (b) one Business
Day prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Base Rate Loans),
specifying (i) the amount and Type of Revolving Loans to be borrowed, (ii) the
requested Borrowing Date and (iii) in the case of Eurodollar Loans, the
respective amounts of each such Type of Loan and the respective lengths of the
initial Interest Period therefor. Each borrowing under the Revolving Commitments
shall be in an amount equal to (x) in the case of Base Rate Loans, $1,000,000 or
a whole multiple thereof (or, if the then aggregate Available Revolving
Commitments are less than $1,000,000, such lesser amount) and (y) in the case of
Eurodollar Loans, $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess
thereof; provided, that the Swingline Lender may request, on behalf of the
Borrower, borrowings under the Revolving Commitments that are Base Rate Loans in
other amounts pursuant to Section 3.4. Upon receipt of any such notice from the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender
thereof. Each Revolving Lender will make the amount of its pro rata share of
each borrowing available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the
Borrower at the Funding Office prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the
Borrowing Date requested by the Borrower in funds immediately available to the
Administrative Agent. Such borrowing will then be made available to the Borrower
by the Administrative Agent crediting the account of the Borrower on the books
of such office with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the
Administrative Agent by the Revolving Lenders and in like funds as received by
the Administrative Agent.

                  3.3. Swingline Commitment. (a) Subject to the terms and
conditions hereof, the Swingline Lender agrees to make a portion of the credit
otherwise available to the Borrower under the Revolving Commitments from time to
time during the Revolving Commitment Period by making swing line loans
("Swingline Loans") to the Borrower; provided that (i) the aggregate principal
amount of Swingline Loans outstanding at any time shall not exceed the Swingline
Commitment then in effect (notwithstanding that the Swingline Loans outstanding
at any time, when aggregated with the Swingline Lender's other outstanding
Revolving Loans hereunder, may exceed the Swingline Commitment then in effect)
and (ii) the Borrower shall not request, and the Swingline Lender shall not
make, any Swingline Loan if, after giving effect to the making of such Swingline
Loan, the aggregate amount of the Available Revolving Commitments would be less
than zero. During the Revolving Commitment Period, the Borrower may use the
Swingline Commitment by borrowing, repaying and reborrowing, all in accordance
with the terms and conditions hereof. Swingline Loans shall be Base Rate Loans
only.

                  (b) The Borrower shall repay all outstanding Swingline Loans
on the Revolving Termination Date.

                  3.4. Procedure for Swingline Borrowing; Refunding of Swingline
Loans. (a)Whenever the Borrower desires that the Swingline Lender make Swingline
Loans it shall give the Swingline Lender irrevocable telephonic notice confirmed
promptly in writing (which telephonic notice

<PAGE>

                                                                              36

must be received by such Swingline Lender not later than 12 Noon, New York City
time, on the proposed Borrowing Date), specifying (i) the amount to be borrowed
and (ii) the requested Borrowing Date (which shall be a Business Day during the
Revolving Commitment Period). Each borrowing under the Swingline Commitment
shall be in an amount equal to $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in
excess thereof. Not later than 4:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Borrowing
Date specified in a notice in respect of Swingline Loans, the Swingline Lender
shall make available to the Administrative Agent at the Funding Office an amount
in immediately available funds equal to the amount of the Swingline Loans to be
made by the Swingline Lender. The Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds
of such Swingline Loans available to the Borrower on such Borrowing Date by
depositing such proceeds in the account of the Borrower with the Administrative
Agent on such Borrowing Date in immediately available funds.

                  (b) The Swingline Lender, at any time and from time to time in
its sole and absolute discretion may, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby
irrevocably directs the Swingline Lender to act on its behalf), on one Business
Day's notice given by the Swingline Lender no later than 12:00 Noon, New York
City time, request each Revolving Lender to make, and each Revolving Lender
hereby agrees to make, a Revolving Loan, in an amount equal to such Revolving
Lender's Revolving Percentage of the aggregate amount of the Swingline Loans
(the "Refunded Swingline Loans") outstanding on the date of such notice, to
repay the Swingline Lender. Each Revolving Lender shall make the amount of such
Revolving Loan available to the Administrative Agent at the Funding Office in
immediately available funds, not later than 10:00 A.M., New York City time, one
Business Day after the date of such notice. The proceeds of such Revolving Loans
shall be immediately made available by the Administrative Agent to the Swingline
Lender for application by the Swingline Lender to the repayment of the Refunded
Swingline Loans. The Borrower irrevocably authorizes the Swingline Lender to
charge the Borrower's accounts with the Administrative Agent (up to the amount
available in each such account) in order to immediately pay the amount of such
Refunded Swingline Loans to the extent amounts received from the Revolving
Lenders are not sufficient to repay in full such Refunded Swingline Loans.

                  (c) If, prior to the time a Revolving Loan would have
otherwise been made pursuant to Section 3.4(b), one of the events described in
Section 9(f) shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Borrower
or if for any other reason, as determined by the Swingline Lender in its sole
discretion, Revolving Loans may not be made as contemplated by Section 3.4(b),
each Revolving Lender shall, on the date such Revolving Loan was to have been
made pursuant to the notice referred to in Section 3.4(b) (the "Refunding
Date"), purchase for cash an undivided participating interest in the then
outstanding Swingline Loans by paying to the Swingline Lender an amount (the
"Swingline Participation Amount") equal to (i) such Revolving Lenders' Revolving
Percentage times (ii) the sum of the aggregate principal amount of relevant
Swingline Loans then outstanding that were to have been repaid with such
Revolving Loans.

                  (d) Whenever, at any time after the Swingline Lender has
received from any Revolving Lender such Lender's Swingline Participation Amount
in respect of Swingline Loans made by the Swingline Lender, the Swingline Lender
receives any payment on account of such Swingline Loans, the Swingline Lender
will distribute to such Lender its Swingline Participation Amount (appropriately
adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during
which such Lender's participating interest was outstanding and funded and, in
the case of principal and interest payments, to reflect such Lender's pro rata
portion of such payment if such payment is not sufficient to pay the principal
of and interest on all such Swingline Loans then due); provided, however, that
in the event that such payment received by the Swingline Lender is required to
be returned, such Revolving Lender will return to the Swingline Lender any
portion thereof previously distributed to it by the Swingline Lender.

                  (e) Each Revolving Lender's obligation to make the Loans
referred to in Section 3.4(b) and to purchase participating interests pursuant
to Section 3.4(c) shall be absolute and

<PAGE>

                                                                              37

unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any
setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Revolving
Lender or the Borrower may have against the Swingline Lender, the Borrower or
any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance
of a Default or an Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any of the other
conditions specified in Section 6; (iii) any adverse change in the condition
(financial or otherwise) of the Borrower; (iv) any breach of this Agreement or
any other Loan Document by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other
Revolving Lender; or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever,
whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

                  3.5. Commitment and Other Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay
to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a
commitment fee for the period from and including the Closing Date to the last
day of the Revolving Commitment Period, computed at the Commitment Fee Rate on
the average daily amount of the Available Revolving Commitment of such Lender
during the period for which payment is made, payable quarterly in arrears on
each Fee Payment Date, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date
hereof.

                  (b) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agents and the Lead
Arrangers the fees in the amounts and on the dates previously agreed to in
writing by the Borrower, the Agents and the Lead Arrangers.

                  3.6. Termination or Reduction of Revolving Commitments. The
Borrower shall have the right, upon not less than three Business Days' notice to
the Administrative Agent, to terminate the Revolving Commitments or, from time
to time, to reduce the amount of the Revolving Commitments; provided that no
such termination or reduction of Revolving Commitments shall be permitted if,
after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the Revolving Loans and
Swingline Loans made on the effective date thereof, the Total Revolving
Extensions of Credit would exceed the Total Revolving Commitments. Any such
reduction shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000, or a whole multiple
thereof, and shall reduce permanently the Revolving Commitments then in effect.

                  3.7. L/C Commitment. (a)Subject to the terms and conditions
hereof, the Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other Revolving
Lenders set forth in Section 3.10(a), agrees to issue letters of credit
("Letters of Credit") for the account of the Borrower on any Business Day during
the Revolving Commitment Period in such form as may be approved from time to
time by the Issuing Lender; provided that the Issuing Lender shall have no
obligation to issue any Letter of Credit after the day that is 30 days before
the Revolving Termination Date; provided, further, that the Issuing Lender shall
have no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such
issuance, (x) the L/C Obligations would exceed the L/C Commitment or (y) the
aggregate amount of the Available Revolving Commitments would be less than zero.
Each Letter of Credit shall (i) be denominated in Dollars, (ii) expire no later
than the earlier of (A) the first anniversary of its date of issuance and (B)
(1) if such Letter of Credit is a standby Letter of Credit, the date that is
five Business Days prior to the Revolving Termination Date, or (2) if such
Letter of Credit is a commercial Letter of Credit, the date that is 30 days
before the Revolving Termination Date and (iii) be payable upon presentation of
sight drafts; provided, further, that any Letter of Credit with a one-year term
may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall
in no event extend beyond the date referred to in clause (ii) above).

                  (b) The Issuing Lender shall not at any time be obligated to
issue any Letter of Credit if such issuance would conflict with, or cause the
Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant to exceed any limits imposed by, any
applicable Requirement of Law.

<PAGE>

                                                                              38

                  (c) On the Closing Date, the Letters of Credit outstanding
under the Existing Credit Agreement, as amended and restated hereby, shall be
continued hereunder. A list of such existing Letters of Credit is set forth in
Schedule 3.7.

                  3.8. Procedure for Issuance of Letter of Credit. The Borrower
may from time to time request that the Issuing Lender issue a Letter of Credit
by delivering to the applicable Issuing Lender at its address for notices
specified herein, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, a Letter of Credit
Request, accompanied by such other certificates, documents or other papers as
may be requested by the Issuing Lender. Upon receipt of a Letter of Credit
Request, the applicable Issuing Lender will process such request in accordance
with its customary procedures and shall issue the Letter of Credit requested
thereby after securing the Administrative Agent's authorization to do so (but in
no event shall the applicable Issuing Lender be required to issue any Letter of
Credit earlier than three Business Days after its receipt of the Letter of
Credit Request and all such other certificates, documents and other papers and
information relating thereto). Promptly after the issuance of or amendment to a
standby Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall notify the Administrative
Agent and the Borrower, in writing, of such issuance or amendment, and such
notice shall be accompanied by a copy of such issuance or amendment. Upon
receipt of the notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the
Lenders of such issuance or amendment and, if so requested by any Lender, the
Administrative Agent shall furnish such Lender with copies of the issuance or
amendment. With regard to any commercial Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender
shall on the first Business Day of each week provide the Administrative Agent by
facsimile with a report detailing the daily aggregate outstanding amount of such
Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Lender for the previous week.

                  3.9. Fees and Other Charges. (a)The Borrower will pay a
participation fee to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the
Lenders on all outstanding Letters of Credit at a per annum rate equal to the
Applicable Margin then in effect with respect to Eurodollar Loans under the
Revolving Facility, shared ratably among the Revolving Lenders and payable
quarterly in arrears on each Fee Payment Date after the issuance date. In
addition, the Borrower shall pay to the Issuing Lender for its own account a
fronting fee of 0.25% per annum (and, in any event, no less than $500 per year)
on the undrawn and unexpired amount of each Letter of Credit, payable quarterly
in arrears on each Fee Payment Date after the issuance date.

                  (b) In addition to the foregoing fees, the Borrower shall pay
or reimburse the Issuing Lender for such normal and customary costs and expenses
as are incurred or charged by the Issuing Lender in issuing, negotiating,
effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of
Credit.

                  3.10. L/C Participations. (a)The Issuing Lender irrevocably
agrees to grant and hereby grants to each L/C Participant, and, to induce the
Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit, each L/C Participant irrevocably
agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from the Issuing
Lender, on the terms and conditions set forth below, for such L/C Participant's
own account and risk an undivided interest equal to such L/C Participant's
Revolving Percentage in the Issuing Lender's obligations and rights under and in
respect of each Letter of Credit and the amount of each draft paid by the
Issuing Lender thereunder. Each L/C Participant agrees with the Issuing Lender
that, if a draft is paid under any Letter of Credit for which the Issuing Lender
is not reimbursed in full by the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement, such L/C Participant shall pay to the Issuing Lender upon demand at
the Issuing Lender's address for notices specified herein an amount equal to
such L/C Participant's Revolving Percentage of the amount of such draft, or any
part thereof, that is not so reimbursed. Each L/C Participant's obligation to
pay such amount shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by
any circumstance, including (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or
other right that such L/C Participant may have against the Issuing Lender, the
Borrower or any other

<PAGE>

                                                                              39

Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a
Default or an Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any of the other
conditions specified in Section 6, (iii) any adverse change in the condition
(financial or otherwise) of the Borrower, (iv) any breach of this Agreement or
any other Loan Document by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other L/C
Participant or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever,
whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

                  (b) If any amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant
to the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.10(a) in respect of any unreimbursed
portion of any payment made by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit is
paid to the Issuing Lender within three Business Days after the date such
payment is due, such L/C Participant shall pay to the Issuing Lender on demand
an amount equal to the product of (i) such amount, times (ii) the daily average
Federal Funds Effective Rate during the period from and including the date such
payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available
to the Issuing Lender, times (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is the
number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is
360. If any such amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant pursuant to
Section 3.10(a) is not made available to the Issuing Lender by such L/C
Participant within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, the
Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover from such L/C Participant, on
demand, such amount with interest thereon calculated from such due date at the
rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans under the Revolving Facility. A
certificate of the Issuing Lender submitted to any L/C Participant with respect
to any amounts owing under this Section shall be conclusive in the absence of
manifest error.

                  (c) Whenever, at any time after the Issuing Lender has made
payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any L/C Participant its
pro rata share of such payment in accordance with Section 3.10(a), the Issuing
Lender receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly
from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of collateral applied thereto
by the Issuing Lender), or any payment of interest on account thereof, the
Issuing Lender will distribute to such L/C Participant its pro rata share
thereof; provided, however, that in the event that any such payment received by
the Issuing Lender shall be required to be returned by the Issuing Lender, such
L/C Participant shall return to the Issuing Lender the portion thereof
previously distributed by the Issuing Lender to it.

                  3.11. Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrower. If any draft
is paid under any Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse the Issuing
Lender for the amount of (a) the draft so paid and (b) any taxes, fees, charges
or other costs or expenses incurred by the Issuing Lender in connection with
such payment, not later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on (i) the Business
Day that the Borrower receives notice of such draft, if such notice is received
on such day prior to 10:00 A.M., New York City time, or (ii) if clause (i) above
does not apply, the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower
receives such notice. Each such payment shall be made to the Issuing Lender at
its address for notices referred to herein in Dollars and in immediately
available funds. Interest shall be payable on any such amounts from the date on
which the relevant draft is paid until payment in full at the rate set forth in
(x) until the Business Day next succeeding the date of the relevant notice,
Section 4.5(b) and (y) thereafter, Section 4.5(c).

                  3.12. Obligations Absolute. The Borrower's obligations under
this Section 3 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all
circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment
that the Borrower may have or have had against the Issuing Lender, any
beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person. The Borrower also agrees
with the Issuing Lender that the Issuing Lender shall not be responsible for,
and the Borrower's Reimbursement Obligations under Section 3.11 shall not be
affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of
any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be
invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Borrower and
any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any

<PAGE>

                                                                              40

other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims
whatsoever of the Borrower against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or
any such transferee. The Issuing Lender shall not be liable for any error,
omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any
message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit,
except for errors or omissions found by a final and nonappealable decision of a
court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender. The Borrower agrees that any action
taken or omitted by the Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of
Credit or the related drafts or documents, if done in the absence of gross
negligence or willful misconduct, shall be binding on the Borrower and shall not
result in any liability of the Issuing Lender to the Borrower.

                  3.13. Letter of Credit Payments. If any draft shall be
presented for payment under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall
promptly notify the Borrower of the date and amount thereof. The responsibility
of the Issuing Lender to the Borrower in connection with any draft presented for
payment under any Letter of Credit shall, in addition to any payment obligation
expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that
the documents (including each draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in
connection with such presentment are substantially in conformity with such
Letter of Credit.

                  3.14. Letter of Credit Requests. To the extent that any
provision of any Letter of Credit Request or any Issuing Lender's standard form
of application referred to in Section 3.8 is inconsistent with the provisions of
this Section 3, the provisions of this Section 3 shall apply.

     SECTION 4. GENERAL PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO LOANS AND LETTERS OF CREDIT

                  4.1. Optional Prepayments. (a) The Borrower may at any time
and from time to time prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, without premium or
penalty, upon irrevocable notice delivered to the Administrative Agent no later
than 1:00 P.M., New York City time, three Business Days prior thereto, in the
case of Eurodollar Loans, and no later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on
the date thereof, in the case of Base Rate Loans, which notice shall specify the
date and amount of prepayment and whether the prepayment is of Eurodollar Loans
or Base Rate Loans; provided, that if a Eurodollar Loan is prepaid on any day
other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower
shall also pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 4.11. Upon receipt of any
such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender
thereof. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall
be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with (except in the
case of Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans and Swingline Loans) accrued
interest to such date on the amount prepaid. Partial prepayments of Term Loans
and Revolving Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or a
whole multiple thereof. Partial prepayments of Swingline Loans shall be in an
aggregate principal amount of $100,000 or a whole multiple thereof.

                  (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 4.1(a)
or 4.8, with respect to the amount of any optional prepayment described in
Section 4.1(a) that is allocated to Tranche D Term Loans or Tranche D-1 Term
Loans (such amounts, the "Optional Tranche D Prepayment Amount"), at any time
when Tranche A-2 Term Loans or Tranche A-3 Term Loans remain outstanding, the
Borrower will, in lieu of applying such amount to the prepayment of Tranche D
Term Loans or Tranche D-1 Term Loans, as applicable, as provided in Sections
4.1(a) and 4.8, on the date specified in Section 4.1(a) for such prepayment,
give the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (promptly confirmed in writing)
requesting that the Administrative Agent prepare and provide to each Tranche D
Term Lender and Tranche D-1 Term Lender, as applicable, a Prepayment Option
Notice as described below. As promptly as practicable after receiving such
notice from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent will send to each Tranche D
Term Lender and Tranche D-1 Term Lender, as applicable, a Prepayment Option
Notice,

<PAGE>

                                                                              41

which shall be in the form of Exhibit G (a "Prepayment Option Notice"), and
shall include an offer by the Borrower to prepay on the date (each an "Optional
Prepayment Date") that is 4 Business Days after the date of the Prepayment
Option Notice, the relevant Term Loans of such Lender by an amount equal to the
portion of the Optional Tranche D Prepayment Amount indicated in such Lender's
Prepayment Option Notice as being applicable to such Lender's Tranche D Term
Loans or Tranche D-1 Term Loans, as applicable. Any Tranche D Term Lender or
Tranche D-1 Term Lender which wishes to accept any or all of the prepayment
applicable to its Tranche D Term Loans or Tranche D-1 Term Loans, as applicable,
shall be required to execute and return the Prepayment Option Notice to the
Administrative Agent no later than 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on the date
that is 3 Business Days after the date of the Prepayment Option Notice. On the
Optional Prepayment Date, (i) the Borrower shall pay to the relevant Tranche D
Term Lenders and Tranche D-1 Term Lenders the aggregate amount necessary to
prepay that portion of the outstanding relevant Term Loans in respect of which
such Lenders have accepted prepayment as described above and (ii) the Tranche
A-2 Term Loans and Tranche A-3 Term Loans shall be prepaid in an aggregate
amount equal to the portion of the Optional Tranche D Prepayment Amount not
accepted by the relevant Lenders, and such amount shall be applied to the
prepayment of the Tranche A-2 Term Loans and Tranche A-3 Term Loans to the
extent so required.

                  4.2. Mandatory Prepayments and Commitment Reductions. (a) If
any Indebtedness shall be incurred by any Group Member (other than Excluded
Indebtedness), an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof shall be
applied on the date of such incurrence toward the prepayment of the Term Loans
and the reduction of the Revolving Commitments as set forth in Section 4.2(g);
provided that (i) to the extent that the Consolidated Leverage Ratio as of the
date of incurrence of Indebtedness pursuant to clause (xv) of Section 8.2(a),
calculated on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the incurrence of such
Indebtedness (and any required repayments hereunder), is greater than or equal
to 4.0 to 1.0 but less than 5.0 to 1.0, in each case after giving effect
thereto, only 75% of the Net Cash Proceeds of such Indebtedness shall be applied
on the date of such incurrence toward the prepayment of the Term Loans and the
reduction of the Revolving Commitments as set forth in Section 4.2(g) and (ii)
to the extent that the Consolidated Leverage Ratio as of the date of incurrence
of Indebtedness pursuant to clause (xv) of Section 8.2(a), calculated on a pro
forma basis after giving effect to the incurrence of such Indebtedness (and any
required repayments hereunder), is less than 4.0 to 1.0 after giving effect
thereto, no prepayment of Term Loans or reduction of Revolving Commitments shall
be required pursuant to this Section.

                  (b) If any Capital Stock shall be issued or sold by any Group
Member (other than issuances of Capital Stock to Holdings or any Group Member),
an amount equal to 50% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof shall be applied on the
date of such issuance or sale toward the prepayment of the Term Loans and the
reduction of the Revolving Commitments as set forth in Section 4.2(g); provided
that to the extent that the Consolidated Leverage Ratio as of the date of such
issuance or sale of Capital Stock, calculated on a pro forma basis after giving
effect to the such issuance or sale (and any required repayments hereunder), is
less than 4.5 to 1.0 after giving effect thereto, no prepayment of Term Loans or
reduction of Revolving Commitments shall be required pursuant to this Section.

                  (c) If on any date any Group Member shall receive Net Cash
Proceeds from any Asset Sale or Recovery Event then, unless a Reinvestment
Notice shall be delivered in respect thereof, an amount equal to 100% of such
Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied on such date toward the prepayment of the
Term Loans and the reduction of the Revolving Commitments as set forth in
Section 4.2(g); provided, that (i) notwithstanding the foregoing, on each
Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment
Amount with respect to the relevant Reinvestment Event shall be applied toward
the prepayment of the Term Loans and the reduction of the Revolving Commitments
as set forth in Section 4.2(g) and (ii) the Borrower shall use the Net Cash
Proceeds of any Disposition to prepay Term Loans and reduce the Revolving
Commitments as set forth in Section 4.2(g) to the extent necessary to

                                                                              42

avoid having to prepay or to offer to prepay any of the Notes, any Additional
Senior Subordinated Debt or any Additional Senior Unsecured Notes.

                  (d) If, for any fiscal year of the Borrower there shall be
Excess Cash Flow, the Borrower shall, on the relevant Excess Cash Flow
Application Date, apply the ECF Percentage of such Excess Cash Flow toward the
prepayment of the Term Loans and the reduction of the Revolving Commitments as
set forth in Section 4.2(g); provided that the amount of any prepayment of Term
Loans and reduction of Revolving Commitments required pursuant to this Section
4.2(d) shall be reduced by the amount of any optional prepayments of Term Loans
and optional prepayments of Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans to the extent
accompanying permanent optional reductions of Revolving Commitments, in each
case to the extent such prepayments are made during the relevant fiscal year.
Each such prepayment and commitment reduction shall be made on a date (an
"Excess Cash Flow Application Date") no later than five days after the earlier
of (i) the date on which the financial statements of the Borrower referred to in
Section 7.1(a), for the fiscal year with respect to which such prepayment is
made, are required to be delivered to the Lenders and (ii) the date such
financial statements are actually delivered.

                  (e) [Reserved]

                  (f) [Reserved]

                  (g) Amounts to be applied in connection with prepayments and
Commitment reductions made pursuant to Section 4.2 shall be applied, first, to
prepay the Term Loans and, second, to reduce permanently the Revolving
Commitments. Any such reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be
accompanied by prepayment of the Revolving Loans and/or Swingline Loans to the
extent, if any, that the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit exceed the amount
of the Total Revolving Commitments as so reduced, provided that if the aggregate
principal amount of Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans then outstanding is less
than the amount of such excess (because L/C Obligations constitute a portion
thereof), the Borrower shall, to the extent of the balance of such excess,
replace outstanding Letters of Credit and/or deposit an amount in cash in a cash
collateral account established with the Administrative Agent for the benefit of
the Lenders on terms and conditions satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
The application of any prepayment pursuant to Section 4.2 shall be made, first,
to Base Rate Loans and, second, to Eurodollar Loans. Each prepayment of the
Loans under Section 4.2 (except in the case of Revolving Loans that are Base
Rate Loans and Swingline Loans) shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the
date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid.

                  (h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 4.2(g)
or 4.8, with respect to the amount of any mandatory prepayment described in
Section 4.2 that is allocated to Tranche D Term Loans or Tranche D-1 Term Loans
(such amounts, the "Tranche D Prepayment Amount"), at any time when Tranche A-2
Term Loans or Tranche A-3 Term Loans remain outstanding, the Borrower will, in
lieu of applying such amount to the prepayment of Tranche D Term Loans or
Tranche D-1 Term Loans, as applicable, as provided in paragraph (g) above, on
the date specified in Section 4.2 for such prepayment, give the Administrative
Agent telephonic notice (promptly confirmed in writing) requesting that the
Administrative Agent prepare and provide to each Tranche D Term Lender and
Tranche D-1 Term Lender, as applicable, a Prepayment Option Notice. As promptly
as practicable after receiving such notice from the Borrower, the Administrative
Agent will send to each Tranche D Term Lender and Tranche D-1 Term Lender, as
applicable, a Prepayment Option Notice and shall include an offer by the
Borrower to prepay on the date (each a "Mandatory Prepayment Date") that is 4
Business Days after the date of the Prepayment Option Notice, the relevant Term
Loans of such Lender by an amount equal to the portion of the Tranche D
Prepayment Amount indicated in such Lender's Prepayment Option Notice as being
applicable to such Lender's Tranche D Term Loans or Tranche D-1 Term Loans, as
applicable.

                                                                              43

Any Tranche D Term Lender or Tranche D-1 Term Lender which wishes to accept any
or all of the prepayment applicable to its Tranche D Term Loans or Tranche D-1
Term Loans, as applicable, shall be required to execute and return the
Prepayment Option Notice to the Administrative Agent no later than 5:00 P.M.,
New York City time, on the date that is 3 Business Days after the date of the
Prepayment Option Notice. On the Mandatory Prepayment Date, (i) the Borrower
shall pay to the relevant Tranche D Term Lenders and Tranche D-1 Term Lenders
the aggregate amount necessary to prepay that portion of the outstanding
relevant Term Loans in respect of which such Lenders have accepted prepayment as
described above, (ii) the Tranche A-2 Term Loans and Tranche A-3 Term Loans
shall be prepaid in an aggregate amount equal to the portion of the Tranche D
Prepayment Amount not accepted by the relevant Lenders, and such amount shall be
applied to the prepayment of the Tranche A-2 Term Loans and Tranche A-3 Term
Loans to the extent so required.

                  4.3. Conversion and Continuation Options. (a) The Borrower may
elect from time to time to convert Eurodollar Loans to Base Rate Loans by giving
the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice of such election no later than
12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the Business Day preceding the proposed
conversion date, provided that any such conversion of Eurodollar Loans may only
be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. The Borrower
may elect from time to time to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans by
giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice of such election no
later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the Business Day preceding the
proposed conversion date (which notice shall specify the length of the initial
Interest Period therefor), provided that no Base Rate Loan under a particular
Facility may be converted into a Eurodollar Loan when any Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent or the Majority Facility
Lenders in respect of such Facility have determined in its or their sole
discretion not to permit such conversions. Upon receipt of any such notice the
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.

                  (b) Any Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such upon the
expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the
Borrower giving irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, in accordance
with the applicable provisions of the term "Interest Period" set forth in
Section 1.1, of the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such
Loans, provided that no Eurodollar Loan under a particular Facility may be
continued as such when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and
the Administrative Agent has or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of such
Facility have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such
continuations, and provided, further, that if the Borrower shall fail to give
any required notice as described above in this paragraph or if such continuation
is not permitted pursuant to the preceding proviso such Loans shall be
automatically converted to Base Rate Loans on the last day of such then expiring
Interest Period. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall
promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.

                  4.4. Limitations on Eurodollar Tranches. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions and
continuations of Eurodollar Loans hereunder and all selections of Interest
Periods hereunder shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such
elections so that, (a) after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal
amount of the Eurodollar Loans comprising each Eurodollar Tranche shall be equal
to $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (b) no
more than 30 Eurodollar Tranches shall be outstanding at any one time.

                  4.5. Interest Rates and Payment Dates. (a) Each Eurodollar
Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect
thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate determined for such day
plus the Applicable Margin.

                  (b) Each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest at a rate per
annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

<PAGE>

                                                                              44

                  (c) (i) If all or a portion of the principal amount of any
Loan or Reimbursement Obligation shall not be paid when due (whether at the
stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear
interest at a rate per annum equal to (x) in the case of the Loans, the rate
that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions
of this Section plus 2% or (y) in the case of Reimbursement Obligations, the
rate applicable to Base Rate Loans under the Revolving Facility plus 2%, and
(ii) if all or a portion of any interest payable on any Loan or Reimbursement
Obligation or any commitment fee or other amount payable hereunder shall not be
paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise),
such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate
then applicable to Base Rate Loans under the relevant Facility plus 2% (or, in
the case of any such other amounts that do not relate to a particular Facility,
the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans under the Revolving Facility plus
2%), in each case, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) above, from the date of
such non-payment until such amount is paid in full (as well after as before
judgment).

                  (d) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest
Payment Date, provided that interest accruing pursuant to paragraph (c) of this
Section shall be payable from time to time on demand.

                  4.6. Computation of Interest and Fees. (a) Interest and fees
payable pursuant hereto shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for
the actual days elapsed, except that, with respect to Base Rate Loans the rate
of interest on which is calculated on the basis of the Prime Rate, the interest
thereon shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be)
day year for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as
practicable notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of each determination
of a Eurodollar Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a
change in the Base Rate or the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements shall become
effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes
effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the
Borrower and the relevant Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each
such change in interest rate.

                  (b) Each determination of an interest rate by the
Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be
conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of
manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower,
deliver to the Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by the
Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to Section
4.5(a).

                  4.7. Inability to Determine Interest Rate. If prior to the
first day of any Interest Period:

                  (a) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which
            determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower)
            that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market,
            adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the
            Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period, or

                  (b) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from
            the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the relevant Facility
            that the Eurodollar Rate determined or to be determined for such
            Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to
            such Lenders (as conclusively certified by such Lenders) of making
            or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period,

the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to the
Borrower and the relevant Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such
notice is given (x) any Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility requested
to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as Base Rate
<PAGE>

                                                                              45

Loans, (y) any Loans under the relevant Facility that were to have been
converted on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurodollar Loans shall be
continued as Base Rate Loans and (z) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans under the
relevant Facility shall be converted, on the last day of the then-current
Interest Period, to Base Rate Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the
Administrative Agent, no further Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility
shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to
convert Loans under the relevant Facility to Eurodollar Loans.

            4.8. Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. (a) Each borrowing by the
Borrower from the Lenders hereunder, each payment by the Borrower on account of
any commitment or participation fees and any reduction of the Commitments of the
Lenders shall be made pro rata according to the respective Tranche A-2 Term
Percentages, Tranche A-3 Term Percentages, Tranche D Term Percentages, Tranche
D-1 Term Percentages or Revolving Percentages, as the case may be, of the
relevant Lenders.

            (b) Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on
account of principal of and interest on the Term Loans shall be made pro rata
according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Term Loans then
held by the Term Lenders (except as otherwise provided in Sections 4.1(b) and
4.2(h)). The amount of each principal prepayment of the Term Loans shall be
applied to reduce the then remaining installments of the Tranche A-2 Term Loans,
Tranche A-3 Term Loans, Tranche D Term Loans and Tranche D-1 Term Loans, as the
case may be, pro rata based upon the then remaining principal amount thereof.
Amounts prepaid on account of the Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

            (c) Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on
account of principal of and interest on the Revolving Loans shall be made pro
rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving
Loans then held by the Revolving Lenders.

            (d) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower
hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall
be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 1:00 P.M., New
York City time, on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the
account of the Lenders, at the Funding Office, in Dollars and in immediately
available funds. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the
Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment
hereunder (other than payments on the Eurodollar Loans) becomes due and payable
on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next
succeeding Business Day. If any payment on a Eurodollar Loan becomes due and
payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be
extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension
would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such
payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. In the case of
any extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two
sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during
such extension.

            (e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in
writing by any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the
amount that would constitute its share of such borrowing available to the
Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is
making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative
Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a
corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative
Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay
to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon at a
rate equal to the greater of (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (ii) a
rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry
rules on interbank compensation for the period until such Lender makes such
amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the
Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing
under

<PAGE>

                                                                              46

this paragraph shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such
Lender's share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative
Agent by such Lender within three Business Days of such Borrowing Date, the
Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest
thereon at the rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans under the relevant
Facility, on demand, from the Borrower.

            (f) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in
writing by the Borrower prior to the date of any payment due to be made by the
Borrower hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment to the
Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower is
making such payment, and the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required
to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Lenders their
respective pro rata shares of a corresponding amount. If such payment is not
made to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower within three Business Days
after such due date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover, on
demand, from each Lender to which any amount which was made available pursuant
to the preceding sentence, such amount with interest thereon at the rate per
annum equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate. Nothing herein
shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender
against the Borrower.

            4.9. Requirements of Law. (a) If the adoption of or any change in
any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof or
compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having
the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made
subsequent to the date hereof:

                  (i) shall subject any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever
      with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any Letter of Credit
      or any Eurodollar Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of
      payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for Non-Excluded Taxes
      covered by Section 4.10 and changes in the rate of tax on the overall net
      income of such Lender);

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

                  (iii) shall impose on such Lender any other condition;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender,
by an amount that such Lender deems to be material, of making, converting into,
continuing or maintaining Eurodollar Loans or issuing or participating in
Letters of Credit, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect
thereof, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay such Lender,
upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender on
an after-tax basis for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. If any
Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this
paragraph, it shall promptly notify the Borrower in writing (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled,
which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for the calculation
of such amounts.

            (b) If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any
change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the
interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any
corporation controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding
capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental
Authority

<PAGE>

                                                                              47

made subsequent to the date hereof shall have the effect of reducing the rate of
return on such Lender's or such corporation's capital as a consequence of its
obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level
below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for
such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender's or
such corporation's policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount
deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, after submission
by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a
written request therefor, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional
amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such corporation on an
after-tax basis for such reduction.

            (c) A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to
this Section submitted by any Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, the Borrower shall not
be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any amounts
incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the
Borrower of such Lender's intention to claim compensation therefor; provided
that, if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect,
then such six-month period shall be extended to include the period of such
retroactive effect. The obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this Section
shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and
all other amounts payable hereunder.

            4.10. Taxes. (a) All payments made by the Borrower under this
Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding
for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes,
levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or
hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental
Authority, excluding net income taxes and franchise taxes (imposed in lieu of
net income taxes) imposed on any Agent or any Lender as a result of a present or
former connection between such Agent or such Lender and the jurisdiction of the
Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing
authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely from
such Agent or such Lender having executed, delivered or performed its
obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or any
other Loan Document). If any such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties,
charges, fees, deductions or withholdings ("Non-Excluded Taxes") or Other Taxes
are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to any Agent or any Lender
hereunder, the amounts so payable to such Agent or such Lender shall be
increased to the extent necessary to yield to such Agent or such Lender (after
payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes) interest or any such other
amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this
Agreement, provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be required to
increase any such amounts payable to any Lender with respect to any Non-Excluded
Taxes (i) that are attributable to such Lender's failure to comply with the
requirements of paragraph (d) or (e) of this Section or (ii) that are United
States withholding taxes imposed on amounts payable to such Lender at the time
such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, except to the extent that such
Lender's assignor (if any) was entitled, at the time of assignment, to receive
additional amounts from the Borrower with respect to such Non-Excluded Taxes
pursuant to this paragraph.

            (b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the
relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

            (c) Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are payable by
the Borrower, as promptly as possible after payment thereof the Borrower shall
send to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of the
relevant Agent or Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original
official receipt received by the Borrower showing payment thereof. If the
Borrower fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the
appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the
required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower

<PAGE>

                                                                              48

shall indemnify the Agents and the Lenders for any incremental taxes, interest
or penalties that may become payable by any Agent or any Lender as a result of
any such failure.

            (d) Each Lender (or Transferee) that is not a "U.S. Person" as
defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a "Non-U.S. Lender") shall deliver
to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant,
to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased)
two copies of either U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI,
or, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal
withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to
payments of "portfolio interest", a statement substantially in the form of
Exhibit H and a Form W-8BEN, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors
thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender claiming
complete exemption from, or a reduced rate of, U.S. federal withholding tax on
all payments by the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
Such forms shall be delivered by each Non-U.S. Lender on or before the date it
becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of any Participant, on or
before the date such Participant purchases the related participation). In
addition, each Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the
obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S.
Lender. Each Non-U.S. Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower at any time it
determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously
delivered certificate to the Borrower (or any other form of certification
adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose). Notwithstanding any
other provision of this paragraph, a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to
deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Non-U.S. Lender is not
legally able to deliver.

            (e) A Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of
non-U.S. withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower
is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to
payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or
reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed
documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be
made without withholding or at a reduced rate, provided that such Lender is
legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such documentation and in such
Lender's judgment such completion, execution or submission would not materially
prejudice the legal position of such Lender.

            (f) If any Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion,
that it has received a refund of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes as to
which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the
Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.10, it shall pay
over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments
made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 4.10 with
respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund),
net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Agent or such Lender and without
interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority
with respect to such refund); provided, that the Borrower, upon the request of
such Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower
(plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant
Governmental Authority) to such Agent or such Lender in the event such Agent or
such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.
This paragraph shall not be construed to require any Agent or any Lender to make
available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which
it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

            (g) The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of
this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable
hereunder.

            4.11. Indemnity. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender and to
hold each Lender harmless from any loss or expense that such Lender may sustain
or incur as a consequence of

                                                                              49

(a) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or
continuation of Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has given a notice
requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b)
default by the Borrower in making any prepayment of or conversion from
Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making of a prepayment of
Eurodollar Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with
respect thereto. Such indemnification may include an amount equal to the excess,
if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the amount so
prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, for the period from the
date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the
last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow,
convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date
of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans
provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein,
if any) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such
Lender) that would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such
amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank
eurodollar market. A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this
Section submitted to the Borrower by any Lender shall be conclusive in the
absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this
Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

            4.12. Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the
occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 4.9 or 4.10(a)
with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use
reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to
designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event with the
object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided, that such
designation is made on terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender, cause
such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no economic, legal or regulatory
disadvantage, and provided, further, that nothing in this Section shall affect
or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender
pursuant to Section 4.9 or 4.10(a).

            4.13. Replacement of Lenders. The Borrower shall be permitted to
replace any Lender that (a) requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to
Section 4.9 or 4.10(a) or (b) defaults in its obligation to make Loans
hereunder, with a replacement financial institution or (c) does not consent to
any amendment to the Loan Documents which is otherwise approved by the Required
Lenders; provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any
Requirement of Law, (ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) prior to any such replacement,
such Lender shall have taken no action under Section 4.12 so as to eliminate the
continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Section 4.9 or 4.10(a),
(iv) the replacement financial institution shall purchase, at par, all Loans and
other amounts owing to such replaced Lender on or prior to the date of
replacement, (v) the Borrower shall be liable to such replaced Lender under
Section 4.11 if any Eurodollar Loan owing to such replaced Lender shall be
purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto,
(vi) the replacement financial institution, if not already a Lender, shall be
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (vii) the replaced Lender
shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of
Section 11.6 (provided that the Borrower shall be obligated to pay the
registration and processing fee referred to therein), (viii) until such time as
such replacement shall be consummated, the Borrower shall pay all additional
amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 4.9 or 4.10(a), as the case may
be, and (ix) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any
rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall
have against the replaced Lender.

            4.14. Evidence of Debt. (a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance
with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing indebtedness of the
Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan of such Lender from time to
time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such
Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

<PAGE>

                                                                              50

            (b) The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Borrower, shall
maintain the Register pursuant to Section 11.6(b), and a subaccount therein for
each Lender, in which shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made
hereunder and any Promissory Note evidencing such Loan, the Type of such Loan
and each Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or
interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each
Lender hereunder and (iii) both the amount of any sum received by the
Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender's share
thereof.

            (c) The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Lender
maintained pursuant to Section 4.14(a) shall, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the
obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided, however, that the
failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain the Register or
any such account, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the
obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to
the Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

            (d) The Borrower agrees that, upon the request to the Administrative
Agent by any Lender, the Borrower will execute and deliver to such Lender a
promissory note of the Borrower evidencing any Term Loans, Revolving Loans or
Swingline Loans, as the case may be, of such Lender, substantially in the forms
of Exhibit I-1, I-2 or I-3, respectively, with appropriate insertions as to date
and principal amount.

            4.15. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the
adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or
application thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain
Eurodollar Loans as contemplated by this Agreement, (a) the commitment of such
Lender hereunder to make Eurodollar Loans, continue Eurodollar Loans as such and
convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans shall forthwith be canceled and (b)
such Lender's Loans then outstanding as Eurodollar Loans, if any, shall be
converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the respective last days of the
then current Interest Periods with respect to such Loans or within such earlier
period as required by law. If any such conversion of a Eurodollar Loan occurs on
a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect
thereto, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be
required pursuant to Section 4.11.

            4.16. Tranche C Term Loans. (a) In accordance with the provisions of
this Section 4.16, the Borrower may, at its option, at any time during the term
of this Agreement, request in writing that the Facilities be increased by up to
$400,000,000; provided that (i) no Default or Event of Default shall exist at
the time of or after giving effect to such increase and the use of proceeds
thereof, (ii) immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of such
Indebtedness, the Borrower shall be in compliance with the covenants set forth
in Section 8.1 opposite the period in which the date of the relevant
Indebtedness Measurement Date falls (and, for purposes of determining such
compliance, "Consolidated EBITDA" and the "Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio"
shall each be as in effect on the last day of the fiscal quarter most recently
ended on or prior to such Indebtedness Measurement Date and adjusted to give
effect to the proposed incurrence of Indebtedness and the uses of the proceeds
thereof as if such Indebtedness had been incurred and other relevant
transactions had occurred on the first day of the relevant period for testing
compliance and "Consolidated Total Debt" and "Consolidated Senior Secured Debt"
shall be as in effect on such Indebtedness Measurement Date and assuming the
proposed Indebtedness had been incurred), (iii) the increase to the Facilities
shall be a single new tranche of term loans (the "Tranche C Term Loans" ) which
may be borrowed in up to three separate fundings (subject to a minimum amount
for any such funding of $100,000,000) and which, except as otherwise
specifically provided in this Section, shall have the same terms and conditions
as the Tranche D Term Loans, shall be entitled to share pari passu with the Term
Loans in all optional and mandatory prepayments under Section 4.2, shall have
the same rights under Sections 4.1(b) and 4.2(h) as the Tranche D Term Loans,
shall be

<PAGE>

                                                                              51

secured under the Security Documents on a pari passu basis with all of the other
Obligations, shall be entitled to all of the other benefits of this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents as if such Tranche C Term Loans were Loans or Term
Loans, as applicable, and shall be considered a new Facility.

            (b) The Applicable Margin for Tranche C Term Loans and the
amortization and maturity thereof shall be as agreed upon by the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent and each Lender providing such Tranche C Term Loans;
provided that any such Tranche C Term Loans shall not amortize (on a percentage
basis) any faster than the Tranche D Term Loans and shall not mature prior to
the Tranche D Maturity Date. Any request for Tranche C Term Loans (a "Tranche C
Term Loan Request") shall be submitted by the Borrower to the Lenders through
the Administrative Agent not less than 10 days prior to the proposed borrowing
date, specify the proposed borrowing date, and amount of such borrowing and
shall be accompanied by (i) a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the
Borrower stating that no Default or Event of Default exists as of the date of
the request or will result from the requested borrowing, (ii) a written consent
to the increase in the amount of the Loans outstanding hereunder executed by the
Guarantors and (iii) such information as the Administrative Agent may reasonably
request. The Borrower may not pay any fees to those Lenders which agree to
provide Tranche C Term Loans (other than fees payable under this Agreement). The
consent of the Lenders parties to this Agreement at the time of such increase
shall not be required for any such borrowing of Tranche C Term Loans pursuant to
this Section.

            (c) Each Lender shall have the option to approve a Tranche C Term
Loan Request in its sole and absolute discretion. The failure to approve such a
request by any number of Lenders shall not affect the Borrower's right to borrow
Tranche C Term Loans pursuant to this Section. Notwithstanding any other
provision hereof, no Lender which fails to approve a Tranche C Term Loan Request
shall be (i) subject to removal as a Lender as a result of such failure to
approve, (ii) obligated to lend any Tranche C Term Loan or (iii) as a result of
such failure to approve, deemed to be in default in any respect hereunder.

            (d) In responding to any Tranche C Term Loan Request under this
Section, each Lender that is willing to make such Tranche C Term Loans shall
specify the maximum amount of Tranche C Term Loans that it is willing to make.
The borrowing of any Tranche C Term Loans shall be contingent upon (i) execution
and delivery by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower of documentation
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent relating to such Tranche C Term Loans,
(ii) execution and delivery by each Lender providing Tranche C Term Loans of
documentation satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, (iii)
execution and delivery by the Borrower (and, if applicable, Holdings and its
Subsidiaries) of such amendments to the Security Documents (including amendments
to the Mortgages) or such other documents as the Administrative Agent reasonably
deems necessary or desirable to reflect the making of the Tranche C Term Loans,
and (iv) receipt by the Administrative Agent of such corporate resolutions and
officer's certificates of the Loan Parties and legal opinions of counsel to the
Loan Parties as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request with respect
thereto, in each case, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent. In the case of any such documentation executed by any
Person that was not theretofore a Lender, upon the making of its Tranche C Term
Loans, such Person shall be a party hereto and a Lender hereunder.

            (e) If the aggregate principal amount committed to by the approving
Lenders is less than the amount requested, the Borrower may (i) withdraw its
request for Tranche C Term Loans in its entirety, (ii) accept the offered
amounts, (iii) designate one or more additional banks, financial institutions or
other entities which are reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent as
additional Lenders hereunder in accordance with clause (f) of this Section
(each, a "New Lender"), which New Lenders may commit to the amount of the
Tranche C Term Loans that has not been committed to by the approving Lenders, or
(iv) request the consenting Lenders to commit to the amount of such request not
previously committed to by the approving Lenders.

            (f) Each New Lender designated by the Borrower shall become an
additional party hereto as a Lender concurrently with the making of the Tranche
C Term Loans and the documentation pursuant to which the Tranche C Term Loans
are made shall, in any event, contain the representations, warranties,
indemnities and other protections afforded to the Administrative Agent and the
other Lenders which would be granted or made by an Assignee under Section 11.6
by means of the execution of an Assignment and Acceptance.

                   SECTION 5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

            To induce the Agents and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement
and to make the Loans and issue or participate in the Letters of Credit, each of
the Borrower and, solely for purposes of Sections 5.1, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6(a),
5.10, 5.13 and 5.17, Holdings, hereby represents and warrants to each Agent and
each Lender that:

            5.1. Financial Condition. The audited consolidated balance sheets of
Holdings as of December 31, 2002, December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2004 and
the related consolidated statements of operations and of cash flows for the
fiscal years ended on such dates, reported on without a "going concern" or like
qualification or exception, or qualification arising out of the scope of the
audit, by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, present fairly the consolidated financial
condition of Holdings as of such dates, and the consolidated results of its
operations and its consolidated cash flows for the respective fiscal years then
ended. The unaudited consolidated balance sheet of Holdings as of September 30,
2005, and the related unaudited consolidated statements of operations, cash
flows and changes in shareholders equity for the nine months then ended, present
fairly the consolidated financial condition of Holdings as of such date, and the
consolidated statements of operations and of cash flows for the six months then
ended (subject to normal year-end audit adjustments). All such consolidated
financial statements, including the related schedules and notes thereto, have
been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied consistently throughout the
periods involved (except as approved by the aforementioned firm of accountants
and disclosed therein). Neither Holdings nor any Group Member has any material
Guarantee Obligations, contingent liabilities and liabilities for taxes, or any
long-term leases or unusual forward or long-term commitments, including any
interest rate or foreign currency swap or exchange transaction or other
obligation in respect of derivatives, that are not reflected in the financial
statements referred to in the preceding sentence (it being understood that with
respect to Guarantee Obligations, the underlying debt is so reflected). During
the period from December 31, 2004 to and including the date hereof there has
been no Disposition by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries of any material part
of its business or property.

            5.2. No Change. Since December 31, 2004, there has been no
development, circumstance or event that has had or could reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect.

            5.3. Corporate Existence; Compliance with Law. Each of Holdings and
each Group Member (a) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (b) has the power and
authority, and the legal right, to own and operate its property, to lease the
property it operates as lessee and to conduct the business in which it is
currently engaged, (c) is duly qualified as a foreign corporation and in good
standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or
operation of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification
and (d) is in compliance with all Requirements of Law, in each case with respect
to clauses (c) and (d), except to the extent that the failure to comply
therewith could not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

            5.4. Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. Each Loan Party
has the power and authority, and the legal right, to execute, deliver and
perform the Loan Documents to which it is a

<PAGE>

                                                                              53

party and, in the case of the Borrower, to obtain extensions of credit
hereunder. Each Loan Party has taken all necessary organizational action to
authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which
it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to authorize the extensions of
credit on the terms and conditions of this Agreement. No consent or
authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect of, any
Governmental Authority or any other Person is required in connection with the
extensions of credit hereunder or with the execution, delivery, performance,
validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents,
except consents, authorizations, filings and notices described in Schedule 5.4,
which consents, authorizations, filings and notices have been obtained or made
and are in full force and effect. Each Loan Document has been duly executed and
delivered on behalf of each Loan Party party thereto. This Agreement
constitutes, and each other Loan Document upon execution will constitute, a
legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party party thereto,
enforceable against each such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, except as
enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of
creditors' rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether
enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law).

            5.5. No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the issuance of Letters of Credit, the
borrowings hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof will not violate any
Requirement of Law or any Contractual Obligation of Holdings or any Group Member
and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on
any of their respective properties or revenues pursuant to any Requirement of
Law or any such Contractual Obligation (other than the Liens created by the
Security Documents). No Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation applicable
to Holdings, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

            5.6. Litigation. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.6, no litigation,
investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental
Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of Holdings or the Borrower,
threatened by or against Holdings or any Group Member or against any of their
respective properties or revenues (a) with respect to any of the Loan Documents
or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or (b) in the case of
any Group Member only, that could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

            5.7. No Default. No Group Member is in default under or with respect
to any of its Contractual Obligations in any respect that could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Default or Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing.

            5.8. Ownership of Property; Liens. Each Group Member has title in
fee simple to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its real property, and good
title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its other property, except to
the extent the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect, and none of such property is subject to any Lien except
as permitted by Section 8.3.

            5.9. Intellectual Property. Each Group Member owns, or is licensed
to use, all Intellectual Property necessary for the conduct of its business as
currently conducted, except to the extent the failure to do so could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No material claim has
been asserted and is pending by any Person challenging or questioning the use of
any Intellectual Property or the validity or effectiveness of any Intellectual
Property, nor does the Borrower know of any valid basis for any such claim that
could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The use of
Intellectual Property by each Group Member does not infringe on the rights of
any Person, except to the extent the same could not reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect.

                                                                              54

            5.10. Taxes. Each of Holdings and each Group Member has filed or
caused to be filed all federal, state and other material tax returns that are
required to be filed and has paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on said
returns or on any assessments made against it or any of its property and all
other taxes, fees or other charges imposed on it or any of its property by any
Governmental Authority (other than any the amount or validity of which are
currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with
respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the
books of Holdings, the Borrower or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be); no tax
Lien has been filed, and, to the knowledge of Holdings and the Borrower, no
claim is being asserted, with respect to any such tax, fee or other charge.

            5.11. Federal Regulations. No part of the proceeds of any Loans, and
no other extensions of credit hereunder, will be used for "buying" or "carrying"
any "margin stock" within the respective meanings of each of the quoted terms
under Regulation U as now and from time to time hereafter in effect or for any
purpose that violates the provisions of the Regulations of the Board. If
requested by any Lender or the Administrative Agent, the Borrower will furnish
to the Administrative Agent and each Lender a statement to the foregoing effect
in conformity with the requirements of FR Form G-3 or FR Form U-1, as
applicable, referred to in Regulation U.

            5.12. ERISA. Neither a Reportable Event nor an "accumulated funding
deficiency" (within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of
ERISA) has occurred during the five-year period prior to the date on which this
representation is made or deemed made with respect to any Plan, and each Plan
has complied in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA
and the Code. No termination of a Single Employer Plan has occurred, and no Lien
in favor of the PBGC or a Plan has arisen, during such five-year period. The
present value of all accrued benefits under each Single Employer Plan (based on
those assumptions used to fund such Plans) did not, as of the last annual
valuation date prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed
made, exceed the value of the assets of such Plan allocable to such accrued
benefits by a material amount. Neither the Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled
Entity has had a complete or partial withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan that
has resulted or could reasonably be expected to result in a material liability
under ERISA, and neither the Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity would
become subject to any material liability under ERISA if the Borrower or any such
Commonly Controlled Entity were to withdraw completely from all Multiemployer
Plans as of the valuation date most closely preceding the date on which this
representation is made or deemed made. No such Multiemployer Plan is in
Reorganization or Insolvent.

            5.13. Investment Company Act; Other Regulations. No Loan Party is an
"investment company", or a company "controlled" by an "investment company",
within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. No Loan
Party is a "holding company", or a company "controlled" by a "holding company",
within the meaning of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as
amended. No Loan Party is subject to regulation under any Requirement of Law
(other than Regulation X of the Board) that limits its ability to incur
Indebtedness.

            5.14. Subsidiaries and Joint Ventures. As of the Closing Date, (i)
Schedule 5.14 sets forth the name and jurisdiction of incorporation of each
Subsidiary and each partnership or joint venture to which the Borrower is a
party or in which the Borrower has an economic interest on the Closing Date and,
as to each such Subsidiary and each such partnership or joint venture, as the
case may be, the percentage of each class of Capital Stock (or other economic
interest) owned by any Loan Party and (ii) there are no outstanding
subscriptions, options, warrants, calls, rights or other agreements or
commitments (other than stock options granted to employees or directors and
directors' qualifying shares) of any nature relating to any Capital Stock of the
Borrower or any Subsidiary, except as created by the Loan Documents.

            5.15. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Tranche D-1 Term Loans
shall be used to finance the Notes Repurchase and pay related fees and expenses
in connection therewith and for general corporate purposes; provided that no
more than $8,000,000 of such proceeds may be used for general corporate
purposes. The proceeds of the Revolving Loans shall be used, together with the
proceeds of the Swingline Loans and the Letters of Credit, for general corporate
purposes. The proceeds of any Tranche C Term Loans shall be used (i) to finance
Permitted Acquisitions and to pay related fees and expenses, (ii) to finance the
redemption, repurchase or prepayment of Indebtedness permitted under Section
8.9(a)(v) or (iii) to finance Restricted Payments permitted under Section 8.6
with the proceeds thereof.

            5.16. Environmental Matters. Except as, in the aggregate, could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect:

            (a) the facilities and properties owned, leased or operated by any
      Group Member (the "Properties") do not contain, and have not previously
      contained, any Materials of Environmental Concern in amounts or
      concentrations or under circumstances that constitute or constituted a
      violation of, or could give rise to liability under, any Environmental
      Law;

            (b) no Group Member has received or is aware of any notice of
      violation, alleged violation, non-compliance, liability or potential
      liability regarding environmental matters or compliance with Environmental
      Laws with regard to any of the Properties or the business operated by any
      Group Member (the "Business"), nor does the Borrower have knowledge or
      reason to believe that any such notice will be received or is being
      threatened;

            (c) Materials of Environmental Concern have not been transported or
      disposed of from the Properties in violation of, or in a manner or to a
      location that could give rise to liability under, any Environmental Law,
      nor have any Materials of Environmental Concern been generated, treated,
      stored or disposed of at, on or under any of the Properties in violation
      of, or in a manner that could give rise to liability under, any applicable
      Environmental Law;

            (d) no judicial proceeding or governmental or administrative action

to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, for use in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents, contained as of the date such statement, information, document
or certificate was so furnished (or, in the case of the Confidential Information
Memorandum, as of the date of this Agreement), any untrue statement of a
material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the
statements contained herein or therein not misleading. The projections and pro
forma financial information contained in the materials referenced above are
based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by management of the
Borrower to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by the Lenders
that such financial information as it relates to future events is not to be
viewed as fact and that actual results during the period or periods covered by
such financial information may differ from the projected results set forth
therein by a material amount. On the date hereof, there is no fact known to any
Loan Party that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect

certificates representing such pledged stock, and in the case of the other
Collateral described in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, the financing
statements on file (or to be filed) in the offices specified on Schedule

security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such
Collateral and the proceeds thereof, as security for the Obligations (as defined
in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement), in each case prior and superior in

            (b) Each of the Mortgages is effective to create in favor of the
Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, a legal, valid and enforceable
Lien on the Mortgaged Properties described therein and proceeds thereof, and the
Mortgages on file in the offices specified on Schedule 5.18(b) create a fully
perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of
the Loan Parties in the Mortgaged Properties and the proceeds thereof, as
security for the Obligations (as defined in the relevant Mortgage), in each case
prior and superior in right to any other Person. Schedule 1.1 lists, as of the
Closing Date, each parcel of owned real property and each leasehold interest in
real property located in the United States and held by the Borrower or any of
its Subsidiaries.

            5.19. Solvency. The Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole,

Guarantor party thereto (if any) under and as defined in the Additional Senior

            (b) Holdings will ensure that any Shared Services Payments made by
the Borrower or its Subsidiaries to Holdings (or a Subsidiary of Holdings formed
for such purpose) represent only reimbursement for cash expenses actually
incurred by Holdings (or such Subsidiary) (including accrued costs payable in

allocation of such out-of-pocket expenses that are not so directly attributable
among the Borrower and the Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and all other Persons,
on the other hand, to which Holdings (or a Subsidiary of Holdings formed for
such purpose) provides Shared Services. Shared Services Payments will not in any
event include payments in respect of trade payables incurred in connection with
the conduct of the Permitted Business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries
(including, for example, payables relating to printing costs, distribution
costs, and costs of inventory, paper and other raw materials), which shall be
incurred and paid directly by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (it being

Holdings formed for such purpose) incurred in the ordinary course relating to
assets included in the Shared Services Assets and Operations or the provision of
Shared Services may be incurred by Holdings (or such Subsidiary) and reimbursed
as Shared Services Payments in accordance herewith). Holdings (or a Subsidiary
of Holdings formed for such purpose) will invoice the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries for Shared Services Payments on a periodic basis, not less
frequently than quarterly. Holdings (or a Subsidiary of Holdings formed for such
purpose) will from time to time provide the Administrative Agent with such
analyses and other information regarding Shared Services Payments, including
with respect to attributions and allocations of costs and expenses to the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries, as the Administrative Agent may reasonably
request.

            8A.2. Amendments to Acquisition Documents. Holdings shall not amend,
supplement or otherwise modify (pursuant to a waiver or otherwise) any material
provision of the Merger Agreement in a manner that is material and adverse to
the Lenders without the consent of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

                          SECTION 9. EVENTS OF DEFAULT

            (b) any representation or warranty made or deemed made by any Loan
      Party herein or in any other Loan Document or that is contained in any
      certificate, document or financial or other statement furnished by it at
      any time under or in connection with this Agreement or any such other Loan
      Document shall prove to have been inaccurate in any material respect on or
      as of the date made or deemed made; or

            (c) any Loan Party shall default in the observance or performance of
      any agreement contained in clause (i) or (ii) of Section 7.4(a) (with
      respect to Holdings and the Borrower only), Section 7.7(a) or Section 8 or
      8A of this Agreement or Section 5.5 or 5.7(b) of the Guarantee and
      Collateral Agreement shall have occurred and be continuing; or

            (d) any Loan Party shall default in the observance or performance of
      any other agreement contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document
      (other than as provided in paragraphs (a) through (c) of this Section),
      and such default shall continue unremedied for a period of 30 days after
      notice to the Borrower from the Administrative Agent or any Lender; or

            (e) Holdings or any Group Member shall (i) default in making any
      payment of any principal of any Indebtedness (including any Guarantee
      Obligation, but excluding the Loans) on the scheduled or original due date
      with respect thereto; or (ii) default in making any payment of any
      interest on any such Indebtedness beyond the period of grace, if any,
      provided in the instrument or agreement under which such Indebtedness was
      created; or (iii) default in the observance or performance of any other
      agreement or condition relating to any such Indebtedness or contained in
      any instrument or agreement evidencing, securing or relating thereto, or
      any other event shall occur or condition exist, the effect of which
      default or other event or condition is to cause, or to permit the holder
      or beneficiary of such Indebtedness (or a trustee or agent on behalf of
      such holder or beneficiary) to cause, with the giving of notice if
      required, such Indebtedness to become due prior to its stated maturity or
      to become subject to a mandatory offer to purchase by the obligor
      thereunder or (in the case of any such Indebtedness constituting a
      Guarantee Obligation) to become payable (other than the Notes Repurchase
      and Notes Call); provided, that a default, event or condition described in
      clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph (e) shall not at any time
      constitute an Event of Default unless, at such time, one or more defaults,
      events or conditions of the type described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii)
      of this paragraph (e) shall have occurred and be continuing with respect
      to Indebtedness the outstanding principal amount of which exceeds in the
      aggregate $25,000,000; or

            (g) (i) any Person shall engage in any "prohibited transaction" (as
      defined in Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) involving any
      Plan, (ii) any "accumulated funding deficiency" (as defined in Section 302

      Group Member or any Commonly Controlled Entity, (iii) a Reportable Event
      shall occur with respect to, or proceedings shall commence to have a
      trustee appointed, or a trustee shall be appointed, to administer or to
      terminate, any Single Employer Plan, which Reportable Event or

      liability in connection with a withdrawal from, or the Insolvency or
      Reorganization of, a Multiemployer Plan or (vi) any other event or
      condition shall occur or exist with respect to a Plan; and in each case in
      clauses (i) through (vi) above, such event or condition, together with all
      other such events or conditions, if any, could, in the sole judgment of
      the Required Lenders, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
      Effect; or

            (h) one or more judgments or decrees shall be entered against
      Holdings or any Group Member involving in the aggregate a liability (not
      paid or fully covered by insurance as to which the relevant insurance

      Party shall so assert, or any Lien created by any of the Security
      Documents shall cease to be enforceable and of the same effect and
      priority purported to be created thereby (other than in respect of
      Collateral which in the aggregate has a fair market value not in excess of
      $1,000,000); or

            (j) the guarantee contained in Section 2 of the Guarantee and

      "Exchange Act")), shall become, or obtain rights (whether by means or
      warrants, options or otherwise) to become, the "beneficial owner" (as
      defined in Rules 13(d)-3 and 13(d)-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or

      stock of Holdings; (ii) the board of directors of Holdings shall cease to
      consist of a majority of Continuing Directors; (iii) Holdings shall cease

      subordinated to the Obligations or the obligations of the Subsidiary
      Guarantors under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, as the case may
      be, as provided in the Senior Subordinated Notes Indenture or the

<PAGE>

                                                                              82

      respect of the Senior Subordinated Notes or Additional Senior Subordinated
      Debt, as the case may be, or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate
      principal amount of the Senior Subordinated Notes or Additional Senior
      Subordinated Debt, as the case may be, shall so assert;

then, and in any such event, (A) if such event is an Event of Default specified
in clause (i) or (ii) of paragraph (f) above with respect to the Borrower,
automatically the Commitments shall immediately terminate and the Loans
hereunder (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all amounts of L/C
Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then outstanding Letters of
Credit shall have presented the documents required thereunder) shall immediately
become due and payable, and (B) if such event is any other Event of Default,
either or both of the following actions may be taken: (i) with the consent of
the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the
Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Borrower
declare the Commitments to be terminated forthwith, whereupon the Commitments
shall immediately terminate; and (ii) with the consent of the Required Lenders,
the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Required Lenders, the
Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Borrower, declare the Loans
hereunder (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all amounts of L/C
Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then outstanding Letters of
Credit shall have presented the documents required thereunder) to be due and
payable forthwith, whereupon the same shall immediately become due and payable.
With respect to all Letters of Credit with respect to which presentment for
honor shall not have occurred at the time of an acceleration pursuant to this
paragraph, the Borrower shall at such time deposit in a cash collateral account
opened by the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the aggregate then undrawn
and unexpired amount of such Letters of Credit. Amounts held in such cash
collateral account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to the payment
of drafts drawn under such Letters of Credit, and the unused portion thereof
after all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, if
any, shall be applied to repay other obligations of the Borrower hereunder and
under the other Loan Documents. After all such Letters of Credit shall have
expired or been fully drawn upon, all Reimbursement Obligations shall have been
satisfied and all other obligations of the Borrower hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents shall have been paid in full, the balance, if any, in such
cash collateral account shall be returned to the Borrower (or such other Person
as may be lawfully entitled thereto). Except as expressly provided above in this
Section, presentment, demand, protest and all other notices of any kind are
hereby expressly waived by the Borrower.

                             SECTION 10. THE AGENTS

            10.1. Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and
appoints each Agent as the agent of such Lender under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes such Agent, in
such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform
such duties as are expressly delegated to such Agent by the terms of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are
reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary
elsewhere in this Agreement, no Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities,
except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any
Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties,
obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan
Document or otherwise exist against any Agent. Each Lender hereby expressly
authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute, deliver and perform the Security
Documents on behalf of such Lender.

            10.2. Delegation of Duties. Each Agent may execute any of its duties
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents or
attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled

<PAGE>

                                                                              83

to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. No Agent
shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or
attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

            10.3. Exculpatory Provisions. Neither any Agent nor any of their
respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or
affiliates shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be
taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any
other Loan Document (except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by
a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have
resulted from its or such Person's own gross negligence or willful misconduct)
or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals,
statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer
thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any
certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in,
or received by the Agents under or in connection with, this Agreement or any
other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness,
enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or
for any failure of any Loan Party a party thereto to perform its obligations
hereunder or thereunder. The Agents shall not be under any obligation to any
Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of
the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party.

            10.4. Reliance by Agents. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and
shall be fully protected in relying, upon any instrument, writing, resolution,
notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, 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 counsel to
Holdings or the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by
such Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any
Promissory Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of
assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the
Administrative Agent. Each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing
to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it
shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, if
so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders) as it deems appropriate or it shall
first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all
liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or
continuing to take any such action. The Agents shall in all cases be fully
protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or,
if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or any other instructing group of
Lenders specified by this Agreement), and such request and any action taken or
failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all
future holders of the Loans.

            10.5. Notice of Default. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge
or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless
such Agent has received notice from a Lender, Holdings or the Borrower referring
to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that
such notice is a "notice of default". In the event that the Administrative Agent
receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to
the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to
such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required
Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or any other
instructing group of Lenders specified by this Agreement); provided that unless
and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the
Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or
refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of
Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.

            10.6. Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender
expressly acknowledges that neither the Agents nor any of their respective
officers, directors, employees, agents,

<PAGE>

                                                                              84

attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to
it and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the
affairs of a Loan Party or any Affiliate of a Loan Party, shall be deemed to
constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each
Lender represents to the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance
upon any Agent 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, operations, property, financial and other condition and
creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates and made
its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each
Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any
Agent 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 Agreement and
the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary
to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other
condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their respective
Affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required
to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the
Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any
Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations,
property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of
any Loan Party or any Affiliate of a Loan Party that may come into the
possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors,
employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

            10.7. Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent in
its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without
limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their
respective Aggregate Exposure Percentages in effect on the date on which
indemnification is sought under this Section (or, if indemnification is sought
after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans
shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such Aggregate Exposure
Percentages immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time
(whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or
asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the
Commitments, this Agreement, any of 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 such Agent
under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided 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 that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of
competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent's gross negligence or
willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of
the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

            10.8. Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Each Agent and its
affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any
kind of business with any Loan Party as though such Agent were not an Agent.
With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it and with respect to any Letter
of Credit issued or participated in by it, each Agent shall have the same rights
and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and
may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms "Lender" and
"Lenders" shall include each Agent in its individual capacity.

            10.9. Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may
resign as Administrative Agent upon 30 Business Days' notice to the Lenders and
the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders
shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which
successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default under Section 9(a) or Section
9(f) with respect to the Borrower shall have occurred and be continuing) be
subject to approval by the Borrower

<PAGE>

                                                                              85

(which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such
successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the
Administrative Agent, and the term "Administrative Agent" shall mean such
successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former
Administrative Agent's rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall
be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such
former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any
holders of the Loans. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as
Administrative Agent by the date that is 10 days following a retiring
Administrative Agent's notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative
Agent's resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the
Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent
hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor
agent as provided for above. After any retiring Administrative Agent's
resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 10 shall
inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while
it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

            10.10. Securitizations. Each party hereto authorizes the
Administrative Agent to enter into customary intercreditor agreements in
connection with Securitizations permitted under this Agreement.

            10.11. Agents Generally. Except as expressly set forth herein, no
Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities hereunder in its capacity as
such, and shall incur no liability, under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents.

            10.12. The Lead Arrangers. The Lead Arrangers, in their capacity as
such, shall have no duties or responsibilities, and shall incur no liability,
under this Agreement and other Loan Documents.

                           SECTION 11. MISCELLANEOUS

            11.1. Amendments and Waivers. Neither this Agreement, any other Loan
Document, nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, supplemented or
modified except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 11.1. The
Required Lenders and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan Document may,
or, with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent
and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan Document may, from time to time,
(a) enter into written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to
the other Loan Documents for the purpose of adding any provisions to this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights of
the Lenders or of the Loan Parties hereunder or thereunder or (b) waive, on such
terms and conditions as the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent, as the
case may be, may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any Default or Event of Default and its
consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment,
supplement or modification shall (i) forgive the principal amount or extend the
final scheduled date of maturity of any Loan, extend the scheduled date of any
amortization payment in respect of any Term Loan, reduce the stated rate of any
interest or fee payable hereunder (except (x) in connection with the waiver of
applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates, which waiver shall
be effective with the consent of the Majority Facility Lenders of each adversely
affected Facility and (y) that any amendment or modification of defined terms
used in the financial covenants in this Agreement shall not constitute a
reduction in the rate of interest or fees for purposes of this clause (i)) or
extend the scheduled date of any payment thereof, or increase the amount or
extend the expiration date of any Lender's Commitment, in each case without the
written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; (ii) eliminate or
reduce the voting rights of any Lender under this Section 11.1 without the
written consent of

<PAGE>

                                                                              86

such Lender; (iii) reduce any percentage specified in the definition of Required
Lenders or Supermajority Lenders, consent to the assignment or transfer by the
Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents, release a substantial part of the Collateral or release a
substantial part of the Subsidiary Guarantors from their obligations under the
Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, in each case without the written consent of
all Lenders; (iv) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 4.8 without
the written consent of the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of each Facility
adversely affected thereby (except for technical amendments with respect to
additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement which afford the
protections to such additional extensions of credit of the type provided to the
Term Loans and the Revolving Loan Commitments on the Closing Date); (v) reduce
the percentage specified in the definition of Majority Facility Lenders with
respect to any Facility without the written consent of all Lenders under such
Facility; (vi) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 10 without the
written consent of each Agent adversely affected thereby; (vii) amend, modify or
waive any provision of Section 3.3 or 3.4 without the written consent of each
Swingline Lender adversely affected thereby; (viii) amend or modify any
provision of Section 11.6 to add any additional consent requirements necessary
to effect any assignment or participation under such Section without the consent
of the Supermajority Lenders; (ix) amend, modify or waive any provision of
Sections 3.7 through 3.14 without the written consent of the Issuing Lender; or
(x) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 4.1(b) or 4.2(h) without the
consent of the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the Tranche D Term
Facility. Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification
shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Loan
Parties, the Lenders, the Agents and all future holders of the Loans. In the
case of any waiver, the Loan Parties, the Lenders and the Agents shall be
restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be
cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or
other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon.

            In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be
amended at any time after December 31, 2008 with the written consent of the
Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders providing the Replacement
Revolving Commitments (as defined below) to permit the refinancing of all
outstanding Revolving Commitments ("Refinanced Revolving Commitments") with a
replacement revolving facility hereunder ("Replacement Revolving Commitments");
provided that (a) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Revolving
Commitments shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Refinanced
Revolving Commitments, (b) the Applicable Margin for such Replacement Revolving
Commitments shall not be higher than the Applicable Margin for such Refinanced
Revolving Commitments, (c) the final maturity of such Replacement Revolving
Commitments shall not be earlier than the final maturity date of the Tranche D
Term Loans at the time of such refinancing and (d) all other terms applicable to
such Replacement Revolving Commitments shall be substantially identical to, or
less favorable to the Lenders providing such Replacement Revolving Commitments
than, those applicable to such Refinanced Revolving Commitments, except to the
extent that such substantially identical or less favorable terms may be extended
to cover any period after the latest final maturity of the Revolving Commitments
in effect immediately prior to such refinancing.

            11.3. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no
delay in exercising, on the part of any Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy,
power or privilege hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall operate as
a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy,

                                                                              88

be submitted to the Borrower prior to the Closing Date (in the case of amounts
to be paid on the Closing Date), and from time to time thereafter on a quarterly
basis or such other periodic basis as such Agent shall deem appropriate, (b) to
pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent for all of its out-of-pocket costs and
expenses incurred in connection with any amendment, supplement or modification
to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared
in connection herewith or therewith, (c) to pay or reimburse each Lender and
Agent for all its costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement
or preservation of any rights under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and
any such other documents, including the fees and disbursements of counsel
(including the allocated fees and expenses of in-house counsel) to each Lender
and of counsel to such Agent, (d) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender and
Agent harmless from, any and all recording and filing fees and any and all
liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, stamp,
excise and other taxes, if any, that may be payable or determined to be payable
in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or
administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment,
supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of,
this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, and (e)
to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender and Agent and their respective officers,
directors, employees, affiliates, agents, trustees, advisors and controlling
persons (each, an "Indemnitee") harmless from and against any and all other
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect
to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this
Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, including any
of the foregoing relating to the use of proceeds of the Loans or the violation
of, noncompliance with or liability under, any Environmental Law applicable to
the operations of any Group Member or any of the Properties and the reasonable
fees and expenses of legal counsel in connection with claims, actions or
proceedings by any Indemnitee against any Loan Party under any Loan Document
(all the foregoing in this clause (e), collectively, the "Indemnified
Liabilities"), provided, that the Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to
any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such
Indemnified Liabilities are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a
court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. Without limiting the foregoing, and to
the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower agrees not to assert and to
cause its Subsidiaries not to assert, and hereby waives and agrees to cause its
Subsidiaries to waive, all rights for contribution or any other rights of
recovery with respect to all claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities,
settlements, damages, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature, under or
related to Environmental Laws, that any of them might have by statute or
otherwise against any Indemnitee. All amounts due under this Section 11.5 shall
be payable not later than 10 days after written demand therefor. Statements
payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 11.5 shall be submitted to the
Borrower at the address set forth in Section 11.2, or to such other Person or
address as may be hereafter designated by the Borrower in a written notice to

            11.6. Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments. (a)
The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit
of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted
hereby (including any affiliate of the Issuing Lender that issues any Letter of
Credit), except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any
of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each
Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such
consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise
transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this
Section.

            (b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii)
below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees (each, an "Assignee") all
or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all
or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the
prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed)
of:

<PAGE>

                                                                              89

                  (A) the Borrower, provided that no consent of the Borrower
shall be required (i) for an assignment to a Lender or a Lender Affiliate (as
defined below), (ii) for an assignment by any assigning Lender of its Term Loans
or (iii) if a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, for an
assignment to any other Person;

                  (B) the Administrative Agent, provided that no consent of the
Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment to a Lender or a Lender
Affiliate; and

                  (C) the Issuing Lender, provided that no consent of any
Issuing Lender shall be required for an assignment to a Lender or Lender
Affiliate or of a Term Loan.

            (ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional
conditions:

                  (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or a
Lender Affiliate or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the
assigning Lender's Commitments or Loans under any Facility, the amount of the
Commitments or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment
(determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such
assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than
$1,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise
consent, provided that (1) no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (2) such amounts shall be
aggregated in respect of each Lender and its Lender Affiliates, if any;

                  (B) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver
to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a
processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (it being understood that only a single
processing and recordation fee of $3,500 will be payable with respect to any
multiple assignments by or to a Lender or a Lender Affiliate pursuant to clause
(ii)(A) above that are simultaneously consummated pursuant to a single
Assignment and Assumption); and

                  (C) the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver
to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire.

            For the purposes of this Section 11.6, the term "Lender Affiliate"
has the following meaning:

            "Lender Affiliate" means, with respect to any Lender, (a) such
Lender's parent company and/or any affiliate of such Lender that is at least 50%
owned by such Lender or its parent company and (b) an Approved Fund.

            "Approved Fund" means, with respect to any Lender that is a fund
that invests in loans, any other fund that invests in loans and is managed or
advised by the same investment advisor as such Lender or by an Affiliate of such
investment advisor.

            (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to
paragraph (b)(iv) below, from and after the effective date specified in each
Assignment and Assumption, the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and,
to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have
the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning
Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such
Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement
(and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning
Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to
be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections
4.9, 4.10 and 4.11 and 11.5). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights
or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply

<PAGE>

                                                                              90

with this Section 11.6 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale
by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance
with paragraph (c) of this Section.

            (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent
of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment
and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names
and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of
the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof
from time to time (the "Register"). The entries in the Register shall be
conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and
the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register
pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this
Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be
available for inspection by the Borrower, the Issuing Lender and any Lender, at
any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

            (v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption
executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, the Assignee's completed
administrative questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender
hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b)(ii)
of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph
(b)(i) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment
and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No
assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been
recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

            (c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities
(a "Participant") in all or a portion of such Lender's rights and obligations
under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the
Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender's obligations under this
Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely
responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations
and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the other
Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in
connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any
agreement pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide
that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to
approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement; provided that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not,
without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or
waiver that (1) requires the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby
pursuant to clause (i) of the proviso to the second sentence of Section 11.1 and
(2) directly affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this
Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the
benefits of Sections 4.9, 4.10 and 4.11 to the same extent as if it were a
Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of
this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be
entitled to the benefits of Section 11.7(b) as though it were a Lender, provided
such Participant shall be subject to Section 11.7(a) as though it were a Lender.

            (ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater
payment under Section 4.9 or 4.10 than the applicable Lender would have been
entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant,
unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the
Borrower's prior written consent. Any Participant that is a Non-U.S. Lender
shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.10 unless such Participant
complies with Section 4.10(d).

            (d) Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall
prevent or prohibit any Lender from pledging its Loans and Promissory Notes
hereunder to a Federal Reserve Bank in support of borrowings made by such Lender
from such Federal Reserve Bank and, with prior notification to the
Administrative Agent (but without the consent of the Administrative Agent or the
Borrower), any

<PAGE>

                                                                              91

Lender that is a fund may pledge all or any portion of its Loans and Promissory
Notes to its trustee, to a collateral agent or to another creditor providing
credit or credit support to such Lender in support of its obligations to such
trustee, such collateral agent or a holder of such obligations, or such other
creditor as the case may be. No pledge pursuant to this clause (d) shall release
the transferor Lender from any of its obligations hereunder.

            (e) The Borrower, upon receipt of written notice from the relevant
Lender, agrees to issue Promissory Notes to any Lender requiring Promissory
Notes to facilitate transactions of the type described in paragraph (d) above.

            (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Conduit Lender may assign any
or all of the Loans it may have funded hereunder to its designating Lender
without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent and without
regard to the limitations set forth in Section 11.6(b). Each of Holdings, the
Borrower, each Lender and the Administrative Agent hereby confirms that it will
not, in its capacity as such, institute against a Conduit Lender or join any
other Person in instituting against a Conduit Lender any bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under any
state bankruptcy or similar law, for one year and one day after the payment in
full of the latest maturing commercial paper note issued by such Conduit Lender;
provided, however, that each Lender designating any Conduit Lender hereby agrees
to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss, cost,
damage or expense arising out of its inability to institute such a proceeding
against such Conduit Lender during such period of forbearance.

            11.7. Adjustments; Set-off. (a) Except to the extent that this
Agreement expressly provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Lender
or to the Lenders under a particular Facility, if any Lender (a "Benefitted
Lender") shall receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to
it, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or
involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature
referred to in Section 9(f), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any
such payment to or collateral received by any other relevant Lender, if any, in
respect of the Obligations owing to such other Lender, such Benefitted Lender
shall purchase for cash from the other relevant Lenders a participating interest
in such portion of the Obligations owing to each such other Lender, or shall
provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, as shall be
necessary to cause such Benefitted Lender to share the excess payment or
benefits of such collateral ratably with each of the relevant Lenders; provided,
however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is
thereafter recovered from such Benefitted Lender, such purchase shall be
rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such
recovery, but without interest.

            (b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided
by law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the Borrower,
any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted
by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by the Borrower
hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), to set
off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general
or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any
other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether
direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time
held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the
credit or the account of the Borrower, as the case may be. Each Lender agrees
promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such
setoff and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give
such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

            11.8. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of
the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of
said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same
instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this

<PAGE>

                                                                              92

Agreement by facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually
executed counterpart hereof. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all
the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

            11.9. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is
prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction,
be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without
invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or
unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

            11.10. Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents
represent the entire agreement of Holdings, the Borrower, the Agents and the
Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no
promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by any Agent or any Lender
relative to subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein
or in the other Loan Documents.

            11.11. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS
OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND
INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

            11.12. Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each of Holdings and the
Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

            (a) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or
      proceeding relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to
      which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in
      respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts
      of the State of New York, the courts of the United States for the Southern
      District of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof;

            (b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in
      such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to
      the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such
      action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not
      to plead or claim the same;

            (c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding
      may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail
      (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to Holdings
      or the Borrower, as the case may be at its address set forth in Section
      11.2 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have
      been notified pursuant thereto;

            (d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect
      service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the
      right to sue in any other jurisdiction; and

            (e) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right
      it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred
      to in this Section any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential
      damages.

            11.13. Acknowledgments. Each of Holdings and the Borrower hereby
acknowledges that:

<PAGE>

                                                                              93

            (a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and
      delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

            (b) no Agent or Lender has any fiduciary relationship with or duty
      to Holdings or the Borrower arising out of or in connection with this
      Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between
      the Agents and Lenders, on one hand, and Holdings and the Borrower, on the
      other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor
      and creditor; and

            (c) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan
      Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated
      hereby among the Lenders or among Holdings, the Borrower and the Lenders.

            11.14. Releases of Guarantees and Liens. (a) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the
Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by each Lender (without
requirement of notice to or consent of any Lender except as expressly required
by Section 11.1) to direct the Collateral Agent to take any action requested by
the Borrower having the effect of releasing any Collateral or guarantee
obligations (i) to the extent necessary to permit consummation of any
transaction not prohibited by any Loan Document or that has been consented to in
accordance with Section 11.1 or (ii) under the circumstances described in
paragraph (b) below.

            (b) At such time as the Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations and the
other obligations under the Loan Documents (other than obligations under or in
respect of Specified Hedge Agreements) shall have been paid in full, the
Commitments have been terminated and no Letters of Credit shall be outstanding,
the Collateral shall be released from the Liens created by the Security
Documents, and the Security Documents and all obligations (other than those
expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Collateral Agent, the
Administrative Agent and each Loan Party under the Security Documents shall
terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by
any Person.

            11.15. Confidentiality. Each Agent and each Lender agrees to keep
confidential all non-public information provided to it by any Loan Party
pursuant to this Agreement that is designated by such Loan Party as
confidential; provided that nothing herein shall prevent any Agent or any Lender
from disclosing any such information (a) to any Agent, any other Lender or any
of their respective Affiliates, (b) subject to an agreement to comply with the
provisions of this Section, to any actual or prospective Transferee or any
pledgee referred to in Section 11.6(d) or to any direct or indirect counterparty
to any Hedge Agreement or any securitization or derivative transaction (or any

            The Applicable Margin shall be adjusted, on and after the first
Adjustment Date occurring after the Original Closing Date (in the case of
Revolving Loans, Swingline Loans and Tranche A-2 Term Loans) or December 6, 2004
(in the case of Tranche A-3 Term Loans), based on changes in the Consolidated
Leverage Ratio, with such adjustments to become effective on the date (the
"Adjustment Date") that is three Business Days after the date on which the
relevant financial statements are delivered to the Lenders pursuant to Section
7.1 and to remain in effect until the next adjustment to be effected pursuant to
this paragraph.

            If any financial statements referred to above are not delivered
within the time periods specified in Section 7.1, then, until the date that is
three Business Days after the date on which such financial statements are
delivered, for (a) Revolving Loans, Swingline Loans and Tranche A-2 Term Loans,
the highest rate set forth in each column of the Pricing Grid for Revolving
Loans, Swingline Loans and Tranche A-2 Term Loans ("Pricing Grid I") shall apply
and (b) for Tranche A-3 Term Loans, the highest rate set forth in each column of
the Pricing Grid for Tranche A-3 Term Loans ("Pricing Grid II") shall apply. On
each Adjustment Date, the Applicable Margin for (a) Revolving Loans, Swingline
Loans and Tranche A-2 Term Loans shall be adjusted to be equal to the Applicable
Margins opposite the Pricing Level in Pricing Grid I determined to exist on such
Adjustment Date from the financial statements relating to such Adjustment Date
and (b) for Tranche A-3 Term Loans shall be adjusted to be equal to the
Applicable Margins opposite the Pricing Level in Pricing Grid II determined to
exist on such Adjustment Date from the financial statements relating to such
Adjustment Date.

            As used herein, the following rules shall govern the determination
of Pricing Levels on each Adjustment Date for Pricing Grid I and Pricing Grid
II:

            (a) Pricing Grid I:

            "Pricing Level I" shall exist on an Adjustment Date if the
Consolidated Leverage Ratio for the relevant period is greater than or equal to
4.50 to 1.00.

<PAGE>

            "Pricing Level II" shall exist on an Adjustment Date if the
Consolidated Leverage Ratio for the relevant period is less than 4.50 to 1.00
but greater than or equal to 4.00 to 1.00.

            "Pricing Level III" shall exist on an Adjustment Date if the
Consolidated Leverage Ratio for the relevant period is less than 4.00 to 1.00.

            (b) Pricing Grid II:

            "Pricing Level I" shall exist on an Adjustment Date if the
Consolidated Leverage Ratio for the relevant period is greater than or equal to
4.00 to 1.00.

            "Pricing Level II" shall exist on an Adjustment Date if the
Consolidated Leverage Ratio for the relevant period is less than 4.00 to 1.00.

            (c) It is understood and agreed that, solely for purposes of
determining the Pricing Levels for Pricing Grid I and Pricing Grid II, the
Existing Holdings Notes shall be included in the calculation of the Consolidated
Leverage Ratio.
