    ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT'S discretion) and shall be adjusted upward or
    downward on the basis of the amount of outstanding BASE RATE LOANS as
    of 5:00 p.m. (Charlotte time) on the last BUSINESS DAY of the period
    specified by the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT (each such date, the "SETTLEMENT
    DATE").  The ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT shall deliver to each of the LENDERS
    at least once per week a periodic summary statement of the amount of
    the LOANS and LETTERS OF CREDIT, and promptly after the last BUSINESS 
    DAY of each month a comprehensive statement of the activity under this
    AGREEMENT (including extensions of credit and payments) for such
    period.  The LENDERS shall transfer to the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, or, 
    subject to Subsection 2.3.(e), the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT shall transfer
    to the LENDERS, such amounts as are necessary so that (after giving
    effect to all such transfers) the amount of BASE RATE LOANS made by
    each LENDER shall be equal to such LENDER'S COMMITMENT PERCENTAGE of
    the aggregate amount of BASE RATE LOANS outstanding as of such
    SETTLEMENT DATE.  If the summary statement is received by the LENDERS
    prior to 12:00 Noon (Charlotte time) on any BUSINESS DAY, such LENDER
    shall make the transfers described above in immediately available funds
    no later than 3:00 p.m. (Charlotte time) on the day such summary
    statement was received, and if such summary statement is received by
    the LENDERS after 12:00 Noon (Charlotte time) on such day, each LENDER
    shall make such transfers no later than 3:00 p.m. (Charlotte time) on
    the next succeeding BUSINESS DAY.  The obligation of each of the
    LENDERS to transfer such funds shall be irrevocable and unconditional
    and without recourse to or warranty by the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.  The
    ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT and each of the LENDERS agree to mark their
    respective books and records on the SETTLEMENT DATE to show at all
    times the DOLLAR amount of their respective COMMITMENT PERCENTAGE of
    the outstanding LOANS.

         (ii)   To the extent that the settlement described above shall
    not yet have occurred, upon repayment of BASE RATE LOANS by the
    BORROWER, the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT may first apply such amounts repaid
    directly to the amounts made available by the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
    pursuant to this Subsection 2.3.(b).

         (iii)  Because the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT on behalf of the LENDERS
    may be advancing and/or may be repaid BASE RATE LOANS prior to the time
    when the LENDERS will actually advance and/or be repaid BASE RATE
    LOANS, interest with respect to BASE RATE LOANS shall be allocated by
    the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT to each LENDER and the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT in
    accordance with the amount of BASE RATE LOANS actually advanced by and
    repaid to each LENDER and the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT and shall accrue
    from and including the date such BASE RATE LOANS are so advanced to but
    excluding the date such BASE RATE LOANS are either repaid by the
    BORROWER in accordance with Section 2.4 or actually settled by the
    applicable LENDER as described in this Subsection 2.3.(b).

         (c)  If any amount described in Sections 2.2 or 2.3 hereof is
not made available to the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT by a LENDER (such LENDER being
hereinafter referred to as a "DEFAULTING LENDER") and the ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT has made such amount available to the BORROWER, the ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such DEFAULTING
LENDER together with interest as hereinafter provided.  If such DEFAULTING
LENDER does not pay such amount forthwith upon the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT'S
demand therefor, the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT shall promptly notify the BORROWER
and the BORROWER shall immediately (but in no event later than five (5)
BUSINESS DAYS after such demand) pay such amount to the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
together with interest.  The ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT shall also be entitled to
recover from such DEFAULTING LENDER and/or the BORROWER, as the case may be,
(x) interest on such amount in respect of each day from the date such
corresponding amount was made available by the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT to the
BORROWER to the date such amount is recovered by the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, at
a rate per annum equal to either (i) if paid by such DEFAULTING LENDER, the
FEDERAL FUNDS RATE, or (ii) if paid by the BORROWER, the then applicable rate
of interest on BASE RATE LOANS, plus (y) an amount equal to any costs
(including reasonable legal expenses) and losses incurred by the
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT as a result of the failure of such DEFAULTING LENDER to
provide such amount as provided in this AGREEMENT.  Nothing herein shall be
deemed to relieve any LENDER from its duty to fulfill its obligations
hereunder or to prejudice any rights which the BORROWER may have against any 
LENDER as a result of any default by such LENDER hereunder, including,
without limitation, the right of the BORROWER to seek reimbursement from any 
DEFAULTING LENDER for any amounts paid by the BORROWER under clause (y) above
on account of such DEFAULTING LENDER'S default.

         (d)  The failure of any LENDER to fund its COMMITMENT PERCENTAGE
of any LOAN or fund its participation in any drawing under a LETTER OF CREDIT
shall not relieve any other LENDER of its obligation, if any, hereunder to
make LOANS, or fund its participation in any LETTER OF CREDIT, but no LENDER
shall be responsible for the failure of any other LENDER to make the LOAN to 
be made by such other LENDER on the date of a borrowing or to fund any other
LENDER'S participation in any LETTER OF CREDIT.

         (e)  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary,
so long as any LENDER is a DEFAULTING LENDER or has rejected its COMMITMENT,
the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT shall not be obligated to transfer to such LENDER
any payments made by the BORROWER to the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT for the benefit
of such LENDER; and, such LENDER shall not be entitled to the sharing of any
payments pursuant to Section 4.4.  Amounts payable to such LENDER under
Section 4.4 shall instead be paid to the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.  The
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT may hold and, in its discretion, re-lend to the BORROWER
the amount of all such payments received by it for the account of such
LENDER.  For purposes of voting or consenting to matters with respect to the
LOAN DOCUMENTS and determining COMMITMENT PERCENTAGES, such DEFAULTING LENDER
shall be deemed not to be a "LENDER" and such LENDER'S COMMITMENT PERCENTAGE
shall be deemed to be Zero (0).  This Subsection 2.3.(e) shall remain
effective with respect to such LENDER until (x) the OBLIGATIONS under this
AGREEMENT shall have been declared or shall have become immediately due and
payable or (y) the MAJORITY LENDERS, the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT and the
BORROWER shall have waived such LENDER'S default in writing.  No commitment
of any LENDER shall be increased or otherwise affected, and performance by
the BORROWER shall not be excused, by the operation of this Subsection
2.3.(e).

    Section 2.4.     Repayment Of Loans.

         (a)  Repayment On Termination Date.  The BORROWER shall repay
the outstanding principal amount of all LOANS in full, together with all
accrued but unpaid interest thereon, on the TERMINATION DATE.

         (b)  Mandatory Repayment Of Excess Loans.  If at any time the
outstanding principal amount of all LOANS exceeds (i) the lesser of the
AGGREGATE COMMITMENT or the BORROWING BASE, less (ii) the L/C OBLIGATIONS,
the BORROWER shall repay immediately upon notice from the ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT, by payment to the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT for the account of the LENDERS,
the LOANS in an amount equal to such excess.  Each such repayment shall be
accompanied by accrued interest on the amount repaid and any amount required
to be paid pursuant to Section 4.9 hereof.

         (c)  Optional Prepayments.  Subject to Subsection 2.4.(d)
hereof, the BORROWER may at any time and from time to time prepay LOANS, in
whole or in part, upon at least three (3) BUSINESS DAYS' irrevocable notice
to the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT with respect to LIBOR RATE LOANS and at least one
(1) BUSINESS DAY irrevocable notice with respect to BASE RATE LOANS,
specifying the date and amount of prepayment and whether the prepayment is of
LIBOR RATE LOANS, BASE RATE LOANS, or a combination thereof, and, if of a
combination thereof, the amount allocable to each.  Upon receipt of such
notice, the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT shall promptly notify each LENDER.  If any
such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and
payable on the date set forth in such notice.  Partial prepayments of LIBOR
RATE LOANS shall be in an aggregate amount of Two Million Five Hundred
Thousand DOLLARS ($2,500,000.00) or a whole multiple of Five Hundred Thousand
DOLLARS ($500,000.00) in excess thereof.

         (d)  Limitation On Prepayment Of Libor Rate Loans.  The BORROWER
may not prepay any LIBOR RATE LOAN on any day other than on the last day of
the INTEREST PERIOD applicable thereto unless such prepayment is accompanied
by any amount required to be paid pursuant to Section 4.9 hereof.

         (e)  Repayments From Cash Collateral Account.  All amounts on
deposit in or to the credit of the CASH COLLATERAL ACCOUNT shall be applied
by the COLLATERAL AGENT on a daily basis to repay principal of the BASE RATE
LOANS.  Repayments of principal pursuant to this Subsection 2.4.(e) shall not
constitute prepayments for the purposes of Subsection 2.4.(c).  In the event
the amount of any repayment required to be made under this Subsection 2.4.(e) 
shall exceed the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding BASE RATE
LOANS (the amount of any such excess being called the "EXCESS AMOUNT"), the
EXCESS AMOUNT shall be held by the COLLATERAL AGENT subject to this
Subsection 2.4.(e) in the CASH COLLATERAL ACCOUNT.  Any amounts so held shall
be held by the COLLATERAL AGENT as collateral for the OBLIGATIONS and applied
to the repayment of the LOANS in accordance with this Subsection 2.4.(e),
subject to the BORROWER'S right of withdrawal in lieu of borrowing set forth
in this Subsection 2.4.(e).  On any day on which (i) amounts remain on
deposit in or to the credit of the CASH COLLATERAL ACCOUNT after giving
effect to the payments made on such day pursuant to this Subsection 2.4.(e),
and (ii) the BORROWER shall have delivered to the COLLATERAL AGENT a written
request or a telephonic request (which shall be promptly confirmed in
writing) that such remaining amounts be invested in the CASH EQUIVALENTS
specified in such request, the COLLATERAL AGENT shall invest such remaining
amounts in such CASH EQUIVALENTS on an overnight basis; provided, however,
that the COLLATERAL AGENT shall have continuous dominion and full control
over any such investments (and over any interest that accrues thereon) to the
same extent that it has dominion and control over the CASH COLLATERAL
ACCOUNT.  Any such amounts so invested (together with any interest thereon)
shall be deposited in the CASH COLLATERAL ACCOUNT not later than 11:30 a.m.
on the next succeeding BUSINESS DAY.  The BORROWER shall have the right, in
lieu of any borrowing which it would at the time be permitted to make under
Section 2.2 and Article V, to request the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT to withdraw
funds in an equal amount from the CASH COLLATERAL ACCOUNT and (1) deliver
such funds to the BORROWER, or (2) deliver such funds to any creditor of a
CREDIT PARTY.  Each such request shall be deemed a representation and
warranty by the BORROWER that the conditions precedent set forth in Section
5.3 have been satisfied.

    Section 2.5.     Permanent Reduction Of The Aggregate Commitment.

         (a)  The BORROWER shall have the right at any time and from time
to time, upon at least five (5) BUSINESS DAYS prior written notice to the
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, to permanently reduce, in whole at any time or in part
from time to time, without premium or penalty, the AGGREGATE COMMITMENT in an 
aggregate principal amount not less than Five Million DOLLARS ($5,000,000.00)
or any whole multiple of One Million DOLLARS ($1,000,000.00) in excess
thereof.

         (b)  Each permanent reduction pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall
be accompanied by a payment of principal sufficient to reduce the aggregate
outstanding EXTENSIONS OF CREDIT of the LENDERS after such reduction to the
AGGREGATE COMMITMENT as so reduced and by payment of accrued interest on the
amount of such repaid principal.  Any reduction of the AGGREGATE COMMITMENT
to zero shall be accompanied by payment of all outstanding OBLIGATIONS (and
furnishing of cash collateral satisfactory to the COLLATERAL AGENT for all
L/C OBLIGATIONS) and, if such reduction is permanent, termination of the
COMMITMENTS and CREDIT FACILITY.  Such cash collateral shall be applied in
accordance with Subsection 11.2.(b).  If the reduction of the AGGREGATE
COMMITMENT requires the repayment of any LIBOR RATE LOAN, such reduction may
be made only on the last day of the then current INTEREST PERIOD applicable
thereto unless such repayment is accompanied by any amount required to be
paid pursuant to Section 4.9 hereof.


    Section 2.6.     Termination Of Credit Facility.  The CREDIT
FACILITY shall terminate on the earliest of:  (a) May 31, 2000; (b) the date
of termination by the BORROWER pursuant to Subsection 2.5.(a); and (c) the
date of termination by the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT on behalf of the LENDERS
pursuant to Subsection 11.2.(a).

    Section 2.7.     Revolving Credit Notes.  Each LENDER'S LOANS and
the obligation of the BORROWER to repay such LOANS shall be evidenced by a
NOTE executed by the BORROWER payable to the order of such LENDER
representing the BORROWER'S obligation to pay such LENDER'S COMMITMENT or, if
less, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all LOANS made and to be made
by such LENDER to the BORROWER hereunder, interest and all other fees,
charges and other amounts due thereon.  Each NOTE shall bear interest on the
unpaid principal amount thereof at the applicable interest rate per annum
specified in Section 4.1.

    Section 2.8.     Use Of Proceeds.  The BORROWER shall use the
proceeds of the LOANS:  (a) to finance the ACQUISITIONS; (b) to make the
GUARANTOR ADVANCES for the working capital and general corporate requirements
of the GUARANTORS; and (c) for working capital and general corporate
requirements of the BORROWER, including the payment of certain fees and
expenses incurred in connection with the CREDIT FACILITY.


                          ARTICLE III
                   LETTER OF CREDIT FACILITY
                   --------------------------
    Section 3.1.     L/C Commitment.  Subject to the terms and
conditions hereof, the ISSUING BANK, in reliance on the agreements of the
LENDERS set forth in Subsection 3.4.(a), agrees to issue LETTERS OF CREDIT
for the account of the BORROWER or, in connection with STANDBY LETTERS OF
CREDIT, such other CREDIT PARTY as is designated by the BORROWER for any
particular STANDBY LETTER OF CREDIT ("L/C RESPONSIBLE CREDIT PARTY") on any
BUSINESS DAY from the CLOSING DATE through but not including the TERMINATION
DATE in such form as may be approved from time to time by the ISSUING BANK;
provided, that the ISSUING BANK shall have no obligation to issue any LETTER
OF CREDIT if, after giving effect to such issuance:  (a) the L/C OBLIGATIONS
would exceed the L/C COMMITMENT; (b) the AVAILABLE COMMITMENT of any LENDER
would be less than zero; or (c) the sum of the L/C OBLIGATIONS plus the
aggregate principal amount outstanding under the LOANS would exceed the
lesser of the BORROWING BASE at the time in effect and the AGGREGATE
COMMITMENT.  Each STANDBY LETTER OF CREDIT shall (i) be denominated in
DOLLARS, or to the extent the ISSUING BANK determines is reasonably possible,
such foreign currency as may be requested by the BORROWER or the L/C
RESPONSIBLE CREDIT PARTY, (ii) be issued to support obligations of a CREDIT
PARTY, contingent or otherwise, incurred in the ordinary course of business,
(iii) have an EXPIRATION DATE no more than three hundred sixty (360) days
after the date of issuance and no later than the TERMINATION DATE, and (iv)
be subject to the UNIFORM CUSTOMS and, to the extent not inconsistent
therewith, the laws of the State of Maryland.  Each TRADE LETTER OF CREDIT
shall (i) be denominated in DOLLARS, or to the extent the ISSUING BANK
determines is reasonably possible, such foreign currency as may be requested
by the BORROWER, (ii) be issued for the account of the BORROWER in respect of
the purchase of goods or services by the BORROWER in the ordinary course of
business, (iii) have an EXPIRATION DATE no later than the earlier of the
TERMINATION DATE and the date occurring ninety (90) days after issuance, and
(iv) be subject to the UNIFORM CUSTOMS and, to the extent not inconsistent
therewith, the laws of the State of Maryland.  The ISSUING BANK shall not at
any time be obligated to issue any LETTER OF CREDIT hereunder if such
issuance would conflict with, or cause the ISSUING BANK or any L/C
PARTICIPANT to exceed any limits imposed by, any APPLICABLE LAW.  References
herein to "issue" and derivations thereof with respect to LETTERS OF CREDIT
shall also include extensions or modifications of any existing LETTERS OF
CREDIT, unless the context otherwise requires.


    Section 3.2.     Procedure For Issuance Of Letters Of Credit. The
BORROWER may from time to time request that the ISSUING BANK issue a LETTER
OF CREDIT by delivering to the ISSUING BANK at the address for notices to the
ISSUING BANK specified herein:  (a) in the event the LETTER OF CREDIT is to
be issued for the account of the BORROWER, an APPLICATION therefor, completed
to the satisfaction of the ISSUING BANK, and such other certificates,
documents and other papers and information as the ISSUING BANK may request,
and (b) in the event of a STANDBY LETTER OF CREDIT which is to be issued for
the account of a CREDIT PARTY other than the BORROWER, a request from the
BORROWER that such STANDBY LETTER OF CREDIT be issued for the account of such 
other CREDIT PARTY, an APPLICATION therefor, completed to the satisfaction of
the ISSUING BANK, and such other certificates, documents and other papers and
information as the ISSUING BANK may request.  Upon receipt of any
APPLICATION, the ISSUING BANK shall process such APPLICATION and the
certificates, documents and other papers and information delivered to it in
connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and shall,
subject to Section 3.1 and Article V hereof, promptly issue the LETTER OF
CREDIT requested thereby (but in no event shall the ISSUING BANK be required
to issue any LETTER OF CREDIT earlier than three (3) BUSINESS DAYS after its
receipt of the APPLICATION therefor and all such other certificates,
documents and other papers and information relating thereto) by issuing the
original of such LETTER OF CREDIT to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise
may be agreed by the ISSUING BANK and the BORROWER or the L/C RESPONSIBLE
CREDIT PARTY.  The ISSUING BANK shall furnish to the BORROWER a copy of such
LETTER OF CREDIT and furnish to each LENDER a copy of such LETTER OF CREDIT
and notice of the amount of each LENDER'S L/C PARTICIPATION therein, all
promptly following the issuance of such LETTER OF CREDIT.

    Section 3.3.     Commissions And Other Charges.

         (a)  The BORROWER shall pay to the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, for the
account of the L/C PARTICIPANTS, a commission with respect to each STANDBY
LETTER OF CREDIT, in an amount equal to the sum of (1) the APPLICABLE MARGIN
per annum, as of the date of issuance, for LIBOR RATE LOANS from the date of
issuance to the EXPIRATION DATE, multiplied by (2) the face amount of such
STANDBY LETTER OF CREDIT (collectively, the "STANDBY L/C COMMISSION").  Such
STANDBY L/C COMMISSION shall be payable on the date of the issuance of each
STANDBY LETTER OF CREDIT.

         (b)  The BORROWER shall pay to the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, for the
account of the L/C PARTICIPANTS, a fee with respect to each TRADE LETTER OF
CREDIT (collectively, the "TRADE L/C FEES") in an amount equal to three-
eighths percent (3/8%) of the face amount of each TRADE LETTER OF CREDIT,
payable on the date of issuance of each TRADE LETTER OF CREDIT.

         (c)  The ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT shall, promptly following its
receipt thereof, distribute to the L/C PARTICIPANTS all STANDBY L/C
COMMISSIONS and TRADE L/C FEES received by the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT in
accordance with their respective COMMITMENT PERCENTAGES.

         (d)  In the event that, prior to the EXPIRATION DATE of a
STANDBY LETTER OF CREDIT, a STANDBY LETTER OF CREDIT is either:  (i) returned
to, and canceled by, the ISSUING BANK; or (ii) fully drawn upon by the
beneficiary thereof (the date of either event shall be referred to as an "L/C
CONVERSION DATE"), the L/C PARTICIPANTS shall return to the ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT a percentage of the STANDBY L/C COMMISSION received by the L/C
PARTICIPANT equal to the sum of:  (1) the STANDBY L/C COMMISSION received by
such L/C PARTICIPANT, multiplied by (2) the number of calendar days from the
date of issuance of the STANDBY LETTER OF CREDIT to the L/C CONVERSION DATE,
divided by (3) the number of calendar days from the date of issuance of the
STANDBY LETTER OF CREDIT to the EXPIRATION DATE of such STANDBY LETTER OF
CREDIT ("L/C REBATE SUM").  The ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT shall pay to the 
BORROWER the L/C REBATE SUMS actually received by the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
from the L/C PARTICIPANTS.

         (e)  In addition to the foregoing STANDBY L/C COMMISSIONS and
TRADE L/C FEES, the BORROWER shall pay the ISSUING BANK (i) an issuance fee
for each STANDBY LETTER OF CREDIT equal to the greater of Three Hundred
DOLLARS ($300.00) or one-eighth percent (1/8%) per annum from the date of
issuance to the date of expiration on the face amount of each STANDBY LETTER
OF CREDIT payable on the date of issuance of each LETTER OF CREDIT, and (ii)
a fee for each TRADE LETTER OF CREDIT, payable upon each draw under a TRADE
LETTER OF CREDIT, in an amount equal to the greater of Sixty DOLLARS ($60.00) 
or three-eighths percent (3/8%) of the amount of such draw under a TRADE
LETTER OF CREDIT.

    Section 3.4.     L/C Participations.

         (a)  The ISSUING BANK irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby
grants to each L/C PARTICIPANT (excluding the ISSUING BANK if the ISSUING
BANK becomes a LENDER), and, to induce the ISSUING BANK to issue LETTERS OF
CREDIT hereunder, each L/C PARTICIPANT irrevocably agrees to accept and
purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from the ISSUING BANK, on the terms
and conditions hereinafter stated, for such L/C PARTICIPANT'S own account and
risk an undivided interest equal to such L/C PARTICIPANT'S COMMITMENT
PERCENTAGE in the ISSUING BANK'S obligations and rights under each LETTER OF
CREDIT issued hereunder and the amount of each draft paid by the ISSUING BANK
thereunder.  Each L/C PARTICIPANT unconditionally and irrevocably agrees with
the ISSUING BANK that, if a draft is paid under any LETTER OF CREDIT for
which the ISSUING BANK is not reimbursed in full by the BORROWER or the L/C
RESPONSIBLE CREDIT PARTY in accordance with the terms of this AGREEMENT, such
L/C PARTICIPANT shall pay to the ISSUING BANK upon demand at the ISSUING
BANK'S address for notices specified herein an amount equal to such L/C
PARTICIPANT'S COMMITMENT PERCENTAGE of the amount of such draft, or any part
thereof, which is not so reimbursed.

         (b)  Upon becoming aware of any amount required to be paid by
any L/C PARTICIPANT to the ISSUING BANK pursuant to Subsection 3.4.(a) in
respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by the ISSUING BANK
under any LETTER OF CREDIT, the ISSUING BANK shall notify each L/C
PARTICIPANT of the amount and due date of such required payment and such L/C
PARTICIPANT shall pay to the ISSUING BANK the amount specified on the
applicable due date.  If any such amount is paid to the ISSUING BANK after
the date such payment is due, such L/C PARTICIPANT shall pay to the ISSUING
BANK on demand, in addition to such amount, the product of (i) such amount,
multiplied by (ii) the daily average FEDERAL FUNDS RATE as determined by the
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT during the period from and including the date such
payment is due to the date on which such payment is immediately available to
the ISSUING BANK, multiplied by (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is
the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of
which is three hundred sixty (360).  A certificate of the ISSUING BANK with
respect to any amounts owing under this Section shall be conclusive in the
absence of manifest error.  With respect to payment to the ISSUING BANK of
the unreimbursed amounts described in this Subsection 3.4.(b), if the L/C
PARTICIPANTS receive notice that any such payment is due (1) prior to 1:00
p.m. (Charlotte time) on any BUSINESS DAY, such payment shall be due that
BUSINESS DAY, and (2) after 1:00 p.m. (Charlotte time) on any BUSINESS DAY,
such payment shall be due on the following BUSINESS DAY.

         (c)  Whenever, at any time after the ISSUING BANK has made
payment under any LETTER OF CREDIT and has received from any L/C PARTICIPANT
its COMMITMENT PERCENTAGE of such payment in accordance with this Section
3.4, the ISSUING BANK receives any payment related to such LETTER OF CREDIT
(whether directly from the BORROWER or otherwise, or any payment of interest
on account thereof, the ISSUING BANK will distribute to such L/C PARTICIPANT
its pro rata share thereof; provided, that in the event that any such payment 
received by the ISSUING BANK shall be required to be returned by the ISSUING
BANK, such L/C PARTICIPANT shall return to the ISSUING BANK the portion
thereof previously distributed by the ISSUING BANK to it, together with such
L/C PARTICIPANT'S proportionate share of any interest required to be paid by
the ISSUING BANK on such returned payment.

    Section 3.5.     Reimbursement Obligation Of The Borrower.  The
BORROWER agrees to reimburse the ISSUING BANK on each date on which the
ISSUING BANK notifies the BORROWER of the date and amount of a draft paid
under any LETTER OF CREDIT for the amount of (a) such draft so paid and (b)
any taxes, charges or other costs or expenses incurred by the ISSUING BANK in 
connection with such payment (excluding fees such as issuance fees, amendment
fees and negotiation fees).  Each such payment shall be made to the ISSUING
BANK at its address for notices specified herein in lawful money of the
UNITED STATES and in immediately available funds.  If any draft under a
LETTER OF CREDIT is payable in a currency other than DOLLARS, the BORROWER
shall reimburse the ISSUING BANK for such draft by paying to the ISSUING BANK
the equivalent in DOLLARS of the amount required to purchase the currency
from the ISSUING BANK at the ISSUING BANK'S current selling rate of exchange
in Charlotte, North Carolina for cable transfers to the place of payment in
the currency and amount in which such draft was drawn (or if there is no
current selling rate of exchange generally offered by the ISSUING BANK for
effecting such cable transfers, the amount of DOLLARS required to be paid
shall be based on such rate as the ISSUING BANK shall determine in good faith
for such purpose).  Interest shall be payable on any and all amounts
remaining unpaid by the BORROWER under this Article III from the date such
amounts become payable (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or
otherwise) until payment in full at the rate which would be payable on any
outstanding BASE RATE LOANS which were then overdue.  If the BORROWER fails
to timely reimburse the ISSUING BANK on the date the BORROWER receives the
notice referred to in this Section 3.5, the BORROWER shall be deemed to have
timely given a NOTICE OF BORROWING hereunder to the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
requesting the LENDERS to make a BASE RATE LOAN on such date in an amount
equal to the amount of such drawing and, subject to the satisfaction or
waiver of the conditions precedent specified in Article V, the LENDERS shall
make BASE RATE LOANS in such amount, the proceeds of which shall be applied
to reimburse the ISSUING BANK for the amount of the related drawing and costs
and expenses.

    Section 3.6.     Obligations Absolute.  The BORROWER'S OBLIGATIONS
under this Article III (including without limitation the REIMBURSEMENT
OBLIGATION) shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all
circumstances and irrespective of (a) any set-off, counterclaim or defense to
payment which the BORROWER or the L/C RESPONSIBLE CREDIT PARTY may have or
have had against the ISSUING BANK or any beneficiary of a LETTER OF CREDIT,
and (b) whether a LETTER OF CREDIT is issued for the account of the BORROWER
or another CREDIT PARTY.  The BORROWER also agrees with the ISSUING BANK that
the ISSUING BANK shall not be responsible for, and the BORROWER'S
REIMBURSEMENT OBLIGATION under Section 3.5 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 or the L/C
RESPONSIBLE CREDIT PARTY and any beneficiary of any LETTER OF CREDIT or any
other party to which such LETTER OF CREDIT may be transferred or any claims
whatsoever of the BORROWER or the L/C RESPONSIBLE CREDIT PARTY against any
beneficiary of such LETTER OF CREDIT or any such transferee.  The ISSUING
BANK 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 caused by the ISSUING BANK'S gross negligence or willful
misconduct.  The BORROWER agrees that any action taken or omitted by the
ISSUING BANK 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 and in accordance with the standards of care specified in the 
UNIFORM CUSTOMS and, to the extent not inconsistent therewith, the UCC, shall
be binding on the BORROWER and shall not result in any liability of the
ISSUING BANK to the BORROWER.  The responsibility of the ISSUING BANK 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 in conformity with such LETTER OF CREDIT.

    Section 3.7.     Provisions Relating To Trade Letters Of Credit. 
In connection with each TRADE LETTER OF CREDIT, neither the ISSUING BANK nor
any of its correspondents shall be responsible for:  (a) the existence,
character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of the
property purporting to be represented by documents; (b) any difference in
character, quality, quantity, condition or value of the property from that
expressed in documents; (c) the time, place, manner or order in which
shipment of the property is made; (d) partial or incomplete shipment referred
to in such credit; (e) the character, adequacy or responsibility of any
insurer, or any other risk connected with insurance; (f) any deviation from
instructions, delay, default or fraud by the beneficiary or any one else in
connection with the property or the shipping thereof; (g) the solvency,
responsibility or relationship to the property of any party issuing any
documents in connection with the property; (h) delay in arrival or failure to
arrive of either the property or any of the documents relating thereto; (i)
delay in giving or failure to give notice of arrival or any other notice; (j)
any breach of contract between the shippers or vendors and the BORROWER; (k)
any laws, customs, and regulations which may be effective in any jurisdiction
where any negotiation and/or payment of such TRADE LETTER OF CREDIT occurs;
(l) failure of documents (other than documents required by the terms of the
TRADE LETTER OF CREDIT) to accompany any draft at negotiation; or (m) failure
of any PERSON to note the amount of any document or drafts on the reverse of
such TRADE LETTER OF CREDIT or to surrender or to take up such TRADE LETTER
OF CREDIT or to forward documents other than documents required by the terms
of the TRADE LETTER OF CREDIT.  In connection with each TRADE LETTER OF
CREDIT, the ISSUING BANK shall not be responsible for any error, neglect or
default of any of its correspondents.  None of the above shall affect, impair
or prevent the vesting of any of the ISSUING BANK'S rights or powers
hereunder.  If a TRADE LETTER OF CREDIT provides that payment is to be made
by the ISSUING BANK'S correspondent, neither the ISSUING BANK nor such
correspondent shall be responsible for the failure of any of the documents
specified in such TRADE LETTER OF CREDIT to come into the ISSUING BANK'S
hands, or for any delay in connection therewith, and the BORROWER'S
obligations to make reimbursements shall not be affected by such failure or
delay in the receipt of any such documents.

    Section 3.8.     Effect Of Application.  To the extent that any
provision of any APPLICATION executed by the BORROWER related to any LETTER
OF CREDIT is inconsistent with the provisions of this Article III, the
provisions of this Article III shall apply.

    Section 3.9.     Exchange Rate Affect On L/C Commitment.  On the
first BUSINESS DAY of each month the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT shall determine the
amount of L/C OBLIGATIONS in DOLLARS and DOLLAR EQUIVALENTS then outstanding
and if such aggregate amount exceeds the L/C COMMITMENT (as a result of a
decrease in the value of DOLLARS as measured against the value of other
currencies in which LETTERS OF CREDIT are denominated), the ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT shall promptly notify the BORROWER and the BORROWER shall immediately
deposit in an account maintained by the COLLATERAL AGENT, as security for the
OBLIGATIONS, an amount equal to the amount by which the aggregate amount of
L/C OBLIGATIONS exceeds the L/C COMMITMENT.  Amounts held in the account
shall be applied by the COLLATERAL AGENT to the payment of drafts drawn under
LETTERS OF CREDIT.  The COLLATERAL AGENT shall maintain sole control over the
amounts deposited by the BORROWER pursuant to this Section until such time as
the amount of the L/C OBLIGATIONS no longer exceed the L/C COMMITMENT.


                           ARTICLE IV
                    GENERAL LOAN PROVISIONS

    Section 4.1.     Interest.

         (a)  Interest Rate Options.  Subject to the provisions of this
Section 4.1, at the election of the BORROWER, the aggregate principal balance
of the NOTES or any portion thereof shall bear interest at the BASE RATE or
the LIBOR RATE, plus, in each case, the APPLICABLE MARGIN.  Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, until the SYNDICATION COMPLETION 
DATE, the aggregate principal balance of the NOTES shall bear interest at the
BASE RATE plus one and one-half percent (1 1/2%) per annum.  Following the
SYNDICATION COMPLETION DATE, the BORROWER shall select the rate of interest
and INTEREST PERIOD, if any, applicable to any LOAN at the time a NOTICE OF
BORROWING is given pursuant to Section 2.2 or at the time a NOTICE OF
CONVERSION/CONTINUATION is given pursuant to Section 4.2.  Each LOAN or
portion thereof bearing interest based on the BASE RATE shall be a "BASE RATE
LOAN", and each LOAN or portion thereof bearing interest based on the LIBOR
RATE shall be a "LIBOR RATE LOAN."  Any LOAN or any portion thereof as to
which the BORROWER has not duly specified an interest rate as provided herein
shall be deemed a BASE RATE LOAN.

         (b)  Interest Periods.  In connection with each LIBOR RATE LOAN,
the BORROWER, by giving notice to the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT at the times
described in Subsection 4.1.(a), shall elect an interest period (each, an
"INTEREST PERIOD") to be applicable to such LOAN, which INTEREST PERIOD shall
be a period of one (1), two (2), three (3), or six (6) months with respect to
each LIBOR RATE LOAN;

              (i)    the INTEREST PERIOD shall commence on the date of
    advance of or conversion to any LIBOR RATE LOAN and, in the case of
    immediately successive INTEREST PERIODS, each successive INTEREST
    PERIOD shall commence on the date on which the next preceding INTEREST
    PERIOD expires;

              (ii)   if any INTEREST PERIOD would otherwise expire on
    a day that is not a BUSINESS DAY, such INTEREST PERIOD shall expire on
    the next succeeding BUSINESS DAY; provided, that if any INTEREST PERIOD
    with respect to a LIBOR RATE LOAN would otherwise expire on a day that
    is not a BUSINESS DAY but is a day of the month after which no further
    BUSINESS DAY occurs in such month, such INTEREST PERIOD shall expire on
    the next preceding BUSINESS DAY;

              (iii)  any INTEREST PERIOD with respect to a LIBOR RATE
    LOAN that begins on the last BUSINESS DAY of a calendar month (or on a
    day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar
    month at the end of such INTEREST PERIOD) shall end on the last
    BUSINESS DAY of the relevant calendar month at the end of such INTEREST
    PERIOD;

              (iv)   no INTEREST PERIOD shall extend beyond the
    TERMINATION DATE; and

              (v)    there shall be no more than five (5) INTEREST
    PERIODS outstanding at any time.

         (c)  Applicable Margin.  The APPLICABLE MARGIN provided for in
Subsection 4.1.(a) with respect to the LOANS shall, for each fiscal quarter,
be determined by reference to the ratio of CONSOLIDATED TOTAL FUNDED
INDEBTEDNESS to EBITDA as set forth below, which ratio shall be calculated as
of the end of each fiscal quarter commencing with the fiscal quarter ending
June 30, 1996 (EBITDA shall be calculated on a cumulative basis for the four
(4) most recent fiscal quarters):

Less than 3.00:1                         0%          1.25%
</TABLE>
Adjustments, if any, in the APPLICABLE MARGIN shall be made by the
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT on the fifth BUSINESS DAY after receipt by the
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT of quarterly financial statements for the BORROWER and
its SUBSIDIARIES and the accompanying OFFICER'S COMPLIANCE CERTIFICATE
setting forth the ratio of CONSOLIDATED TOTAL FUNDED INDEBTEDNESS to EBITDA
of the CREDIT PARTIES as of the most recent fiscal quarter end.  Subject to
the immediately succeeding sentence, in the event the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
makes an adjustment of the APPLICABLE MARGIN pursuant to the terms of this
Subsection 4.1.(c), the new APPLICABLE MARGIN shall:  (i) retroactively apply
and be effective, as to BASE RATE LOANS, commencing with the first calendar
day of the month in which the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT receives the quarterly
financial statements of the BORROWER and its SUBSIDIARIES and the
accompanying OFFICER'S COMPLIANCE CERTIFICATE evidencing the ratio of
CONSOLIDATED TOTAL FUNDED INDEBTEDNESS to EBITDA which is the basis for such
adjustment; and (ii) as to LIBOR RATE LOANS, be effective for LIBOR RATE
LOANS with INTEREST PERIODS commencing on or after the date, as set forth in
the immediately preceding sentence, the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT makes the
adjustment to the APPLICABLE MARGIN.  In the event the BORROWER fails to
deliver such financial statements and certificate within the time required by
Subsections 7.1.(b) and Section 7.2 hereof, the APPLICABLE MARGIN shall be
the highest APPLICABLE MARGIN set forth above until the delivery of such
financial statements and certificate.

         (d)  Default Rate.  Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an EVENT OF DEFAULT, the BORROWER shall no longer have the
option to request LIBOR RATE LOANS.  Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an EVENT OF DEFAULT under Subsection 11.1.(a) or 11.1.(b), all
amounts owed under the CREDIT FACILITY which are past due shall bear interest
at a rate per annum two percent (2%) in excess of the rate that would
otherwise then be applicable.  Interest shall continue to accrue on the NOTES
after the filing by or against the BORROWER of any petition seeking any
relief in bankruptcy or under any act or law pertaining to insolvency or
debtor relief, whether state, federal or foreign.

         (e)  Interest Payment And Computation.  Interest on each BASE
RATE LOAN shall be payable in arrears on the last BUSINESS DAY of each
calendar month commencing June 28, 1996; and interest on each LIBOR RATE LOAN
shall be payable on the last day of each INTEREST PERIOD applicable thereto,
and if such INTEREST PERIOD extends over three (3) months, at the end of each
three (3) month interval during such INTEREST PERIOD.  All interest rates,
fees and commissions provided hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a
360-day year and assessed for the actual number of days elapsed, except that 
interest with respect to each BASE RATE LOAN and the commitment fee
referenced in Subsection 4.3.(a) shall be computed on the basis of a 365/366-
day year.

         (f)  Maximum Rate.  In no contingency or event whatsoever shall
the aggregate of all amounts deemed interest hereunder or under any of the
NOTES charged or collected pursuant to the terms of this AGREEMENT or
pursuant to any of the NOTES exceed the highest rate permissible under any
APPLICABLE LAW which a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final
determination, deem applicable hereto.  In the event that such a court
determines that the LENDERS have charged or received interest hereunder in
excess of the highest applicable rate, the rate in effect hereunder shall
automatically be reduced to the maximum rate permitted by APPLICABLE LAW and
the LENDERS shall at the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT'S option promptly refund to the
BORROWER any interest received by LENDERS in excess of the maximum lawful
rate or shall apply such excess to the principal balance of the OBLIGATIONS. 
It is the intent hereof that the BORROWER not pay or contract to pay, and
that neither the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT nor any LENDER receive or contract to
receive, directly or indirectly in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess
of that which may be paid by the BORROWER under APPLICABLE LAW.

    Section 4.2.     Notice And Manner Of Conversion Or Continuation Of
Loans.  Provided that no EVENT OF DEFAULT has occurred and is then
continuing, the BORROWER, following the SYNDICATION COMPLETION DATE, shall
have the option to (a) convert at any time all or any portion of its
outstanding BASE RATE LOANS in a principal amount equal to Two Million Five
Hundred Thousand DOLLARS ($2,500,000.00) or any whole multiple of Five
Hundred Thousand DOLLARS ($500,000.00) in excess thereof into one or more
LIBOR RATE LOANS, (b) upon the expiration of any INTEREST PERIOD, (i) convert
all or any part of its outstanding LIBOR RATE LOANS in a principal amount
equal to One Million DOLLARS ($1,000,000.00) or a whole multiple of Two
Hundred Fifty Thousand DOLLARS ($250,000.00) in excess thereof into BASE RATE
LOANS, or (ii) continue such LIBOR RATE LOANS as LIBOR RATE LOANS.  Whenever
the BORROWER desires to convert or continue LOANS as provided above, the
BORROWER shall give the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT irrevocable prior written notice
in the form attached as Exhibit G (a "NOTICE OF CONVERSION/CONTINUATION") not
later than 11:00 a.m. (Charlotte time) three (3) BUSINESS DAYS before the day
on which a proposed conversion or continuation of such LOAN is to be
effective specifying the LOANS to be converted or continued, and, in the case
of any LIBOR RATE LOAN to be converted or continued, the last day of the
INTEREST PERIOD therefor, the effective date of such conversion or
continuation (which shall be a BUSINESS DAY), the principal amount of such
LOANS to be converted or continued, and the INTEREST PERIOD to be applicable
to such converted or continued LIBOR RATE LOAN.  The ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
shall promptly notify the LENDERS of such NOTICE OF CONVERSION/CONTINUATION.

    Section 4.3.     Fees.

         (a)  Commitment Fee.  On a quarterly basis as set forth below,
the BORROWER shall pay to the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, for the account of the
LENDERS, a non-refundable commitment fee equal to the applicable per annum
percentage set forth on the following matrix (with the ratio of CONSOLIDATED
TOTAL FUNDED INDEBTEDNESS to EBITDA calculated, as of the end of each fiscal
quarter commencing with the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 1996 and EBITDA
calculated on a cumulative basis for the four (4) most recent fiscal
quarters) of the average daily unused portion of the AGGREGATE COMMITMENT:

</TABLE>
The commitment fee shall be payable in arrears on the last BUSINESS DAY of
each fiscal quarter during the term of this AGREEMENT commencing June 30,
1996 and ending on the TERMINATION DATE. Such commitment fee shall be
distributed by the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT to the LENDERS pro rata in accordance
with the LENDERS' respective COMMITMENT PERCENTAGES.

         (b)  Fees.  The BORROWER shall pay all fees as set forth in the
separate fee letter agreement executed by the BORROWER and the ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT dated May 17, 1996.

    Section 4.4.     Manner Of Payment.  Each payment (including
prepayments described in Article II) by the BORROWER on account of the
principal of or interest on the LOANS or of any fee, commission or other
amounts (including the REIMBURSEMENT OBLIGATION) payable to the LENDERS under
this AGREEMENT or any NOTE shall be made not later than 2:00 p.m. (Charlotte
time) on the date specified for payment under this AGREEMENT to the
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT for the account of the LENDERS pro rata in accordance
with their respective COMMITMENT PERCENTAGES at the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT'S
OFFICE, in DOLLARS, in immediately available funds and shall be made without
any set-off, counterclaim or deduction whatsoever.  Any payment received
after 2:00 p.m. (Charlotte time) shall be deemed to have been made on the
next succeeding BUSINESS DAY for all purposes.  Subject to the terms of
Section 2.3, upon receipt by the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT of each such payment,
the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT shall credit each LENDER'S account with its pro rata
share of such payment in accordance with such LENDER'S COMMITMENT PERCENTAGE
and shall wire advice of the amount of such credit to each LENDER.  Each
payment to the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT of the ISSUING BANK'S fees or L/C
PARTICIPANTS' commissions shall be made in like manner, but for the account
of the ISSUING BANK or the L/C PARTICIPANTS, as the case may be.  Subject to
Subsection 4.1.(b)(ii), if any payment under this AGREEMENT or any NOTE shall
be specified to be made upon a day which is not a BUSINESS DAY, it shall be
made on the next succeeding day which is a BUSINESS DAY and such extension of
time shall in such case be included in computing any interest if payable
along with such payment.

    Section 4.5.     Crediting Of Payments And Proceeds.  In the event
that the BORROWER shall fail to pay any of the OBLIGATIONS when due and the
OBLIGATIONS have been accelerated pursuant to Section 11.2, all payments
received by the LENDERS upon the NOTES and the other OBLIGATIONS and all net
proceeds from the enforcement of the OBLIGATIONS shall be applied first to
all expenses then due and payable by the BORROWER hereunder, then to all
indemnity OBLIGATIONS then due and payable by the BORROWER hereunder, then to
all ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT'S and ISSUING BANK'S fees then due and payable, then
to all commitment and other fees and commissions then due and payable, then
to accrued and unpaid interest on the NOTES, the REIMBURSEMENT OBLIGATION, 

then to the principal amount of the NOTES and REIMBURSEMENT OBLIGATION and
then to the cash collateral account described in Subsection 11.2.(b) hereof
to the extent of any L/C OBLIGATIONS then outstanding, in that order.

    Section 4.6.     Adjustments.  If any LENDER (a "BENEFITTED LENDER")
shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its EXTENSIONS OF
CREDIT, or interest thereon, or if any LENDER shall at any time receive any
collateral in respect to its EXTENSIONS OF CREDIT (whether voluntarily or
involuntarily, by set-off or otherwise) in a greater proportion than any such
payment to and collateral received by any other LENDER, if any, in respect of
such other LENDER'S EXTENSIONS OF CREDIT, or interest thereon, such
BENEFITTED LENDER shall purchase for cash from the other LENDERS such portion
of each such other LENDER'S EXTENSIONS OF CREDIT, or shall provide such other
LENDERS with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as
shall be necessary to cause such BENEFITTED LENDER to share the excess
payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the
LENDERS; provided, 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.  The BORROWER agrees that each
LENDER so purchasing a portion of another LENDERS' EXTENSIONS OF CREDIT may
exercise all rights of payment including, without limitation, rights of set-
off) with respect to such portion as fully as if such LENDER were the direct
holder of such portion.

    Section 4.7.     Nature Of Obligations Of Lenders Regarding
Extensions Of Credit.  The obligations of the ISSUING BANK and the LENDERS
under this AGREEMENT to make the LOANS and issue or participate in LETTERS OF
CREDIT are several and are not joint or joint and several.

    Section 4.8.     Changed Circumstances.

         (a)  Circumstances Affecting LIBOR Rate Availability. If with
respect to any INTEREST PERIOD the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT or any LENDER (after
consultation with the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT) shall determine that, by reason
of circumstances affecting the foreign exchange and interbank markets
generally, deposits in eurodollars, in the applicable amounts are either: 
(i) not being offered to such LENDER for such INTEREST PERIOD; or (ii) not
being quoted via Telerate Page 3750 or offered in the amount of Five Million
DOLLARS ($5,000,000.00) to lending banks in the London interbank market for
such INTEREST PERIOD, then the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT shall forthwith give
notice thereof to the BORROWER.  Thereafter, until the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
notifies the BORROWER that such circumstances no longer exist, the obligation
of the LENDERS to make LIBOR RATE LOANS and the right of the BORROWER to
convert any LOAN to or continue any LOAN as a LIBOR RATE LOAN shall be
suspended, and the BORROWER shall repay in full (or cause to be repaid in
full) the then outstanding principal amount of each such LIBOR RATE LOANS
together with accrued interest thereon, on the last day of the then current
INTEREST PERIOD applicable to such LIBOR RATE LOAN or convert the then
outstanding principal amount of each such LIBOR RATE LOAN to a BASE RATE LOAN
as of the last day of such INTEREST PERIOD.

         (b)  Laws Affecting LIBOR Rate Availability.  If, after the date
hereof, the introduction of, or any change in, any APPLICABLE LAW or any
change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any GOVERNMENTAL
AUTHORITY, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation
or administration thereof, or compliance by any LENDER (or any of their
respective LENDING OFFICES) with any request or directive (whether or not
having the force of law) of any such GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITY, central bank or
comparable agency, shall make it unlawful or impossible for any of the
LENDERS (or any of their respective LENDING OFFICES) to honor its obligations
hereunder to make or maintain any LIBOR RATE LOAN, such LENDER shall promptly
give notice thereof to the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT and the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
shall promptly give notice to the BORROWER and the other LENDERS.  
Thereafter, until the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT notifies the BORROWER that such
circumstances no longer exist, (i) the obligations of the LENDERS to make
LIBOR RATE LOANS and the right of the BORROWER to convert any LOAN or
continue any LOAN as a LIBOR RATE LOAN shall be suspended and thereafter the
BORROWER may select only BASE RATE LOANS hereunder, and (ii) if any of the
LENDERS may not lawfully continue to maintain a LIBOR RATE LOAN to the end of
the then current INTEREST PERIOD applicable thereto as a LIBOR RATE LOAN, the
applicable LIBOR RATE LOAN shall immediately be converted to a BASE RATE LOAN
for the remainder of such INTEREST PERIOD.

         (c)  Increased Costs.  If, after the date hereof, the
introduction of, or any change in, any APPLICABLE LAW, or in the
interpretation or administration thereof by any GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITY,
central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or
administration thereof, or compliance by any of the LENDERS (or any of their
respective LENDING OFFICES) with any request or directive (whether or not
having the force of law) of such GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITY, central bank or
comparable agency:

              (i)    shall subject any of the LENDERS (or any of their
    respective LENDING OFFICES) to any tax, duty or other charge with
    respect to any NOTE, LETTER OF CREDIT or APPLICATION or shall change
    the basis of taxation of payments to any of the LENDERS (or any of
    their respective LENDING OFFICES) of the principal of or interest on
    any NOTE, LETTER OF CREDIT or APPLICATION or any other amounts due
    under this AGREEMENT in respect thereof (except for changes in the rate
    of tax on the overall net income of any of the LENDERS or any of their
    respective LENDING OFFICES imposed by the jurisdiction in which such
    LENDER is organized or is or should be qualified to do business or such
    LENDING OFFICE is located); or

              (ii)   shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve
    (including, without limitation, any imposed by the Board of Governors
    of the Federal Reserve System), special deposit, insurance or capital
    or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the
    account of, or credit extended by any of the LENDERS (or any of their
    respective LENDING OFFICES) or shall impose on any of the LENDERS (or
    any of their respective LENDING OFFICES) or the foreign exchange and
    interbank markets any other condition affecting any NOTE;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the costs to any of the
LENDERS of maintaining any LIBOR RATE LOAN or issuing or participating in
LETTERS OF CREDIT or to reduce the yield or amount of any sum received or
receivable by any of the LENDERS under this AGREEMENT or under the NOTES in
respect of a LIBOR RATE LOAN or LETTER OF CREDIT or APPLICATION, then such
LENDER shall promptly notify the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, and the ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT shall promptly notify the BORROWER of such fact and demand compensation
therefor from the BORROWER and, within fifteen (15) days after such notice by
the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, the BORROWER shall pay to such LENDER such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate such LENDER or LENDERS for
such increased cost or reduction.  The ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT will promptly
notify the BORROWER of any event of which it has knowledge which will entitle
such LENDER to compensation pursuant to this Subsection 4.8.(c); provided,
that the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT shall incur no liability whatsoever to the
LENDERS or the BORROWER in the event it fails to do so.  The amount of such
compensation shall be determined, in the applicable LENDER'S reasonable
discretion, based upon the assumption that such LENDER funded its COMMITMENT
PERCENTAGE of the LIBOR RATE LOANS in the London interbank market, and using
any reasonable attribution or averaging methods which such LENDER deems
appropriate and practical.  A certificate of such LENDER setting forth in
reasonable detail the basis for determining such amount or amounts necessary
to compensate such LENDER shall be forwarded to the BORROWER through the
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT and shall be conclusively presumed to be correct save
for manifest error.  A LENDER will not be entitled to compensation under this 
Subsection 4.8.(c) with respect to any increased cost or reduction if the
LENDER fails to give the notification to the BORROWER required hereby within
ninety (90) days after such LENDER obtains actual knowledge of the event
giving rise to any such increased cost or reduction.

    Section 4.9.     Indemnity.  The BORROWER hereby indemnifies each
of the LENDERS against any loss or expense which may arise or be attributable
to each LENDER'S obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits or other funds
acquired to effect, fund or maintain any LOAN (a) as a consequence of any
failure by the BORROWER to make any payment when due of any amount due
hereunder in connection with a LIBOR RATE LOAN, (b) due to any failure of the
BORROWER to borrow on a date specified therefor in a NOTICE OF BORROWING or
NOTICE OF CONTINUATION/CONVERSION, or (c) due to any payment, prepayment or
conversion of any LIBOR RATE LOAN on a date other than the last day of the
INTEREST PERIOD therefor.  The amount of such loss or expense shall be
determined, in the applicable LENDER'S reasonable discretion, based upon the
assumption that such LENDER funded its COMMITMENT PERCENTAGE of the LIBOR
RATE LOANS in the London interbank market, and using any reasonable
attribution or averaging methods which such LENDER deems appropriate and
practical.  A certificate of such LENDER setting forth in reasonable detail
the basis for determining such amount or amounts necessary to compensate such
LENDER shall be forwarded to the BORROWER through the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
and shall be conclusively presumed to be correct save for manifest error.

    Section 4.10.    Capital Requirements.  If either (a) the
introduction of, or any change in, or in the interpretation of, any
APPLICABLE LAW or (b) compliance with any guideline or request from any
central bank or comparable agency or other GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITY (whether or
not having the force of law), has or would have the effect of reducing the
rate of return on the capital of, or has affected or would affect the amount
of capital required to be maintained by, any LENDER or any corporation
controlling such LENDER as a consequence of, or with reference to the
COMMITMENTS and other commitments of this type, below the rate which the
LENDER or such other corporation could have achieved but for such
introduction, change or compliance, then such LENDER will promptly notify the
BORROWER and within five (5) BUSINESS DAYS after written demand by any such
LENDER, the BORROWER shall pay to such LENDER from time to time as specified
by such LENDER additional amounts sufficient to compensate such LENDER or
other corporation for such reduction.  A certificate as to such amounts
submitted to the BORROWER and the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT by such LENDER setting
forth in reasonable detail the calculation of such amounts, shall, in the
absence of manifest error, be presumed to be correct and binding for all
purposes.  A LENDER will not be entitled to compensation under this Section
4.10 with respect to any reduction in the rate of return referred to in this
Section 4.10 if the LENDER fails to give the notification to the BORROWER
required hereby within ninety (90) days after such LENDER obtains actual

perfection of any rights or security interest in respect thereto (hereinafter
referred to as "OTHER TAXES").

         (c)  Indemnity.  The BORROWER shall indemnify each LENDER, the
ISSUING BANK, and the AGENTS for the full amount of TAXES and OTHER TAXES
(including, without limitation, any TAXES and OTHER TAXES imposed by any
jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 4.11) paid by such LENDER,
the ISSUING BANK, or the AGENTS (as the case may be) and any liability
(including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with
respect thereto, whether or not such TAXES or OTHER TAXES were correctly or

complete exemption from withholding or deduction for or on account of any
UNITED STATES federal income taxes, and (ii) an Internal Revenue Service Form
W-8 or W-9 or successor applicable form, as the case may be, to establish an
exemption from UNITED STATES backup withholding taxes.  Each such LENDER
further agrees to deliver to the BORROWER, with a copy to the ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT, a Form 1001 or 4224 and Form W-8 or W-9, or successor applicable forms
or manner of certification, as the case may be, on or before the date that
any such form expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any
event requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered by it
to the BORROWER, certifying in the case of a Form 1001 or 4224 that such
LENDER is entitled to receive payments under this AGREEMENT without deduction
or withholding of any UNITED STATES federal income taxes (unless in any such
case an event (including without limitation any change in treaty, law or
regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would
otherwise be required which renders such forms inapplicable or the exemption 
to which such forms relate unavailable and such LENDER notifies the BORROWER
and the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT that it is not entitled to receive payments
without deduction or withholding of UNITED STATES federal income taxes) and,
in the case of a Form W-8 or W-9, establishing an exemption from UNITED
STATES backup withholding tax.

         (f)  Survival.  Without prejudice to the survival of any other
agreement of the BORROWER hereunder, the agreements and OBLIGATIONS of the
BORROWER contained in this Section 4.11 shall survive the payment in full of

and qualified to do business are described on Schedule 6.1(a).

         (b)  Ownership.  Each SUBSIDIARY of the BORROWER is listed on

APPLICABLE LAW relating to the CREDIT PARTIES, (ii) conflict with, result in
a breach of or constitute a default under the articles of incorporation,
bylaws or other organizational documents of the CREDIT PARTIES or any

thereof is engaged principally or as one of its activities in the business of
extending credit for the purpose of "purchasing" or "carrying" any "margin
stock" (as each such term is defined or used in Regulations G and U of the
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System).  No part of the proceeds
of any of the LOANS or LETTERS OF CREDIT will be used for purchasing or

Governors.

and all other amounts owed to the LENDERS, the ISSUING BANK, and to the
AGENTS under this AGREEMENT or any of the other LOAN DOCUMENTS (including,
without limitation, all L/C OBLIGATIONS, whether or not the beneficiaries of
the then outstanding LETTERS OF CREDIT shall have presented the documents
required thereunder) and all other OBLIGATIONS, to be forthwith due and
payable, whereupon the same shall immediately become due and payable without
presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are
expressly waived, anything in this AGREEMENT or the other LOAN DOCUMENTS to
the contrary notwithstanding, and terminate the CREDIT FACILITY and any right
of the BORROWER to request borrowings or LETTERS OF CREDIT thereunder;
provided, that upon the occurrence of an EVENT OF DEFAULT specified in
Subsections 11.1.(j) or (k), the CREDIT FACILITY shall be automatically
terminated and all OBLIGATIONS shall automatically become due and payable.

         (b)  Letters Of Credit.  The ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT shall, 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 the
preceding subsection, require the BORROWER at such time to deposit in a cash
collateral account opened by the COLLATERAL 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
COLLATERAL 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 the other

The enumeration of the rights and remedies of the AGENTS and the LENDERS set
forth in this AGREEMENT is not intended to be exhaustive and the exercise by

exercise of any other rights or remedies, all of which shall be cumulative,
and shall be in addition to any other right or remedy given hereunder or
under the LOAN DOCUMENTS or that may now or hereafter exist in law or in
equity or by suit or otherwise.  No delay or failure to take action on the
part of the AGENTS or any LENDER in exercising any right, power or privilege
shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise
of any such right, power or privilege preclude other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege or shall be
construed to be a waiver of any EVENT OF DEFAULT.  No course of dealing
between the BORROWER, the AGENTS and the LENDERS or their respective agents
or employees shall be effective to change, modify or discharge any provision
of this AGREEMENT or any of the other LOAN DOCUMENTS or to constitute a
waiver of any EVENT OF DEFAULT.

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
the AGENTS by the terms of this AGREEMENT and such other LOAN DOCUMENTS,
together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. 
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this AGREEMENT or
such other LOAN DOCUMENTS, the AGENTS shall not have any duties or
responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein and therein, or any
fiduciary relationship with any LENDER, and no implied covenants, functions,
responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this

attorneys-in-fact selected by the AGENTS with reasonable care.

for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the
BORROWER or any of its SUBSIDIARIES or any officer thereof contained in this

the AGENTS under or in connection with, this AGREEMENT or the other LOAN
DOCUMENTS or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness,

financing statements and other documents filed in public records in order to
evidence or perfect the LIENS granted in the LOAN DOCUMENTS shall name only
the COLLATERAL AGENT, as collateral agent, as the secured party or LIEN
holder.  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 to inspect the
properties, books or records of the BORROWER or any of its SUBSIDIARIES.

    Section 12.4.    Reliance By The Agents.  The AGENTS shall be
entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any NOTE,
writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter,
cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or
other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and
to have been signed, sent or made by the proper PERSON or PERSONS and upon
advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation,
counsel to the BORROWER), independent accountants and other experts selected
by the AGENTS.  The AGENTS may deem and treat the payee of any NOTE as the
owner thereof for all purposes unless such NOTE shall have been transferred
in accordance with Section 13.9 hereof.  Each AGENT shall be fully justified
in failing or refusing to take any action under this AGREEMENT and the other
LOAN DOCUMENTS unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of
the MAJORITY LENDERS (or, when expressly required hereby or by the relevant
other LOAN DOCUMENT, the MAJORITY LENDERS which must include the COLLATERAL
AGENT, the REQUIRED LENDERS, or all the LENDERS, as the case may be) as it
deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the
LENDERS against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it
by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action except for its own
gross negligence or willful misconduct.  Each AGENT shall in all cases be 
fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this AGREEMENT
and the NOTES in accordance with a request of the MAJORITY LENDERS (or, when
expressly required hereby, the MAJORITY LENDERS which must include the
COLLATERAL AGENT, the REQUIRED LENDERS or all the LENDERS, as the case may
be), 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 NOTES.

    Section 12.5.    Notice Of Default.  The AGENTS shall not be deemed
to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any DEFAULT or EVENT OF

stating that such notice is a "NOTICE OF DEFAULT".  In the event that the
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT receives such a notice, it shall promptly give notice
thereof to the LENDERS.  The AGENTS shall take such action with respect to
such DEFAULT or EVENT OF DEFAULT as shall be reasonably directed by the
REQUIRED LENDERS; provided that unless and until the AGENTS shall have
received such directions, the AGENTS 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 they shall deem advisable in the best interests of the
LENDERS.

    Section 12.6.    Non-Reliance On The Agents And Other Lenders. Each
LENDER expressly acknowledges that neither the ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, the
COLLATERAL AGENT nor any of the respective officers, directors, employees,
agents, attorneys-in-fact, SUBSIDIARIES or AFFILIATES of the AGENTS has made
any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the AGENTS
hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the BORROWER or any
of its SUBSIDIARIES, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or
warranty by either AGENT to any LENDER.  Each LENDER represents to the AGENTS
that it has, independently and without reliance upon the AGENTS 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 BORROWER and its SUBSIDIARIES and made its own decision to make its LOANS
and issue or participate in LETTER OF CREDIT hereunder and enter into this
AGREEMENT.  Each LENDER also represents that it will, independently and
without reliance upon the AGENTS 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 BORROWER and its SUBSIDIARIES.  Except for notices, reports and other
documents expressly required to be furnished to the LENDERS by the AGENTS
hereunder or by the other LOAN DOCUMENTS, neither AGENT shall have any duty
or responsibility to provide any LENDER with any credit or other information
concerning the business, operations, property, financial and other condition
or creditworthiness of the BORROWER or any of its SUBSIDIARIES which may come
into the possession of that AGENT or any of its respective officers,
directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact, SUBSIDIARIES or AFFILIATES.

    Section 12.7.    Indemnification.  The LENDERS agree to indemnify
the AGENTS in their respective capacities as such and (to the extent not
reimbursed by the BORROWER and without limiting the obligation of the
BORROWER to do so), ratably according to the respective amounts of their
COMMITMENT PERCENTAGES, from and against any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time
(including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the
NOTES or any REIMBURSEMENT OBLIGATION) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted
against either AGENT in any way relating to or arising out of this AGREEMENT
or the other LOAN DOCUMENTS, or any documents contemplated by or referred to
herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any 
action taken or omitted by an 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 resulting solely
from the respective AGENT'S bad faith, gross negligence or willful
misconduct.  The agreements in this Section 12.7 shall survive the payment of
the NOTES, any REIMBURSEMENT OBLIGATION and all other amounts payable
hereunder and the termination of this AGREEMENT.

    Section 12.8.    The Agents In Their Individual Capacities.  Each
AGENT and its parent and respective SUBSIDIARIES and AFFILIATES may make
loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business
with the BORROWER as though the AGENT were not an AGENT hereunder.  With
respect to any LOANS made or renewed by it and any NOTE issued to it and with
respect to any LETTER OF CREDIT issued by it 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 the
AGENTS in their individual capacities.

    Section 12.9.    Resignation Of The Agents; Successor Agent. Subject
to the appointment and acceptance of a successor as provided below, either
AGENT may resign at any time by giving notice thereof to the LENDERS and the
BORROWER.  Upon any such resignation, the MAJORITY LENDERS shall have the
right to appoint a successor AGENT, which successor shall have minimum
capital and surplus of at least Five Hundred Million DOLLARS
($500,000,000.00) and shall be reasonably acceptable to the BORROWER.  If no
successor AGENT shall have been so appointed by the MAJORITY LENDERS and
shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the
AGENT'S giving of notice of resignation, then the AGENT may, on behalf of the
LENDERS, appoint a successor AGENT, which successor shall have minimum
capital and surplus of at least Five Hundred Million DOLLARS
($500,000,000.00) and shall be reasonably acceptable to the BORROWER.  Upon
the acceptance of any appointment as AGENT hereunder by a successor AGENT,
such successor AGENT shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all
rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring AGENT, and the retiring
AGENT shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder.  After
any retiring AGENT'S resignation hereunder as AGENT, the provisions of this
Section 12.9 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any
actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as AGENT.

assigning LENDER.  Each surrendered NOTE or NOTES shall be canceled and
returned to the BORROWER.

or more banks or other entities in all or a portion of its rights and
obligations under this AGREEMENT (including, without limitation, all or a
portion of its EXTENSIONS OF CREDIT and the NOTES held by it); provided that:

              (i)    each such participation shall be in an amount not
    less than Five Million DOLLARS ($5,000,000.00);

              (ii)   such LENDER'S obligations under this AGREEMENT

    LENDER in connection with such LENDER'S rights and obligations under
    this AGREEMENT;

              (vi)   such LENDER shall not permit such participant the
    right to approve any waivers, amendments or other modifications to this
