      In consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained,
the parties hereto covenant and agree as follows:

                                   ARTICLE I
                        DEFINITIONS AND ACCOUNTING TERMS

      1.01 DEFINED TERMS. As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall
have the meanings set forth below:

      "Acquired Cash Flow" means, for any period, (a) Dividend Capacity of any
Person or assets acquired by the Borrower or a Subsidiary which is an Insurance
Subsidiary in a Permitted Acquisition during such period, plus (b) EBITDA of any
Person or assets acquired by the Borrower or a Subsidiary which is a
non-Insurance Subsidiary in a Permitted Acquisition during such period and
available to be paid as dividends to the Borrower under applicable Law, in
either case as determined on a pro forma basis for such period as if
consummation of such Permitted Acquisition occurred on the first day of such
period.

      "Acquisition" means any transaction or series of related transactions for
the purpose of or resulting, directly or indirectly, in (a) the acquisition of
all or substantially all of the assets of a Person, or of any business or
division of a Person, (b) the acquisition of in excess of 50% of the Equity
Interests of any Person, or otherwise causing any Person to become a Subsidiary
or (c) a merger or consolidation or any other combination with another Person
(other than with a Person that is a Subsidiary); provided that the Borrower or
one of its Subsidiaries is the surviving entity.

      "Acquisition Consideration" means the consideration given by the Borrower
or any of its Subsidiaries for an Acquisition, including but not limited to the
sum of (without duplication) (a) the fair market value of any cash, property
(including Equity Interests) or services given, plus (b) the amount of any
Indebtedness assumed, incurred or guaranteed (to the extent not otherwise
included) in connection with such Acquisition by the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries.

      "Administrative Agent" means Bank of America in its capacity as

form supplied by the Administrative Agent.

      "Affiliate" means, with respect to any Person, another Person that
directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, Controls or is

means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause
the direction of the management or policies of a Person, whether through the
ability to exercise voting power, by contract or otherwise. "Controlling" and
"Controlled" have meanings correlative thereto. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, a Person shall be deemed to be Controlled by another Person if
such other Person possesses, directly or indirectly, power to vote 10% of the

      "Agreement" means this Credit Agreement.

amounts on particular exhibits, schedules, lines, pages and columns of such
Annual Statements are based on the formats promulgated by the NAIC for 2004
Annual Statements for the applicable type of insurance company. If such format
is changed in future years so that different information is contained in such
items or they no longer exist, it is understood that the reference is to
information consistent with that recorded in the referenced item in the 2004
Annual Statement of the insurance company.

      "Applicable Debt" means obligations described in clauses (a) and (f) of
the definition of Indebtedness contained herein (other than obligations
permitted by Section 7.04(f) and (g)).

                     THE COMMITMENTS AND CREDIT EXTENSIONS

      2.01 REVOLVING LOANS. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth
herein, each Lender severally agrees to make loans (each such loan, a "Revolving
Loan") to the Borrower from time to time, on any Business Day during the
Availability Period, in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time
outstanding the amount of such Lender's Commitment; provided, however, that
after giving effect to any Revolving Borrowing, (i) the Outstandings shall not
exceed the Aggregate Commitments, and (ii) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of
the Revolving Loans of any Lender, plus such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the
Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans shall not exceed such Lender's
Commitment. Within the limits of each Lender's Commitment, and subject to the
other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow under this Section
2.01, prepay under Section 2.04, and reborrow under this Section 2.01. Revolving
Loans may be Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans, as further provided
herein.

      2.02 BORROWINGS, CONVERSIONS AND CONTINUATIONS OF REVOLVING LOANS.

      (a) Each Revolving Borrowing, each conversion of Revolving Loans from one
Type to the other, and each continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be made
upon the Borrower's irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, which may be
given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Administrative
Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (i) three Business Days prior to the requested
date of any Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans
or of any conversion of Eurodollar Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans, and (ii) on
the requested date of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans.

Each telephonic notice by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.02(b) must be
confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written
Revolving Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible
Officer of the Borrower. Each Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of
Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $3,000,000 or a whole
multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Except as provided in Sections 2.03(b)
and (c), each Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be in a
principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess
thereof. Each Revolving Loan Notice (whether telephonic or written) shall
specify (i) whether the Borrower is requesting a Revolving Borrowing, a
conversion of Revolving Loans from one Type to the other, or a continuation of
Eurodollar Rate Loans, (ii) the requested date of the Borrowing, conversion or
continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the
principal amount of Revolving Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, (iv)
the Type of Revolving Loans to

                                       27
<PAGE>

be borrowed or to which existing Revolving Loans are to be converted, and (v) if
applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto.

If the Borrower fails to specify a Type of Revolving Loan in a Revolving Loan
Notice or if the Borrower fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion
or continuation, then the applicable Revolving Loans shall be made as, or
converted to, Base Rate Loans. Any such automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans
shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with
respect to the applicable Eurodollar Rate Loans. If the Borrower requests a
Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans in any
such Revolving Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be
deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month.

      (b) Following receipt of a Revolving Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent
shall promptly notify each Lender of the amount of its Pro Rata Share of the
applicable Revolving Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or
continuation is provided by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall notify
each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans
described in the preceding subsection. In the case of a Revolving Borrowing,
each Lender shall make the amount of its Revolving Loan available to the
Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Administrative
Agent's Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in the
applicable Revolving Loan Notice. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions
set forth in Section 4.02 (and, if such Borrowing is the initial Credit
Extension, Section 4.01), the Administrative Agent shall make all funds so
received available to the Borrower in like funds as received by the
Administrative Agent either by (i) crediting the account of the Borrower on the
books of Bank of America with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of
such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and
reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the Borrower; provided,
however, that if, on the date the Revolving Loan Notice with respect to such
Borrowing is given by the Borrower, there are Swing Line Loans outstanding, then
the proceeds of such Borrowing shall be applied, first, to the payment in full
of any such Swing Line Loans, and second, to the Borrower as provided above.

      (c) Except as otherwise provided herein, a Eurodollar Rate Loan may be
continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such
Eurodollar Rate Loan. During the existence of a Default, no Loans may be
requested as, converted to or continued as Eurodollar Rate Loans without the
consent of the Required Lenders.

      (d) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the
Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Eurodollar
Rate Loans upon determination of such interest rate. The determination of the
Eurodollar Rate by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive in the absence
of manifest error. At any time that Base Rate Loans are outstanding, the
Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders of any change in
Bank of America's prime rate used in determining the Base Rate promptly
following the public announcement of such change.

      (e) After giving effect to all Revolving Borrowings, all conversions of
Revolving Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Revolving
Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than five Interest Periods in
effect with respect to Revolving Loans.

      (a) The Swing Line. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein,
the Swing Line Lender agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other
Lenders set forth in this Section 2.03, to make loans (each such loan, a "Swing
Line Loan") to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the
Availability Period in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding
the amount of the Swing Line Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact that such Swing
Line Loans, when aggregated with the Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of
Revolving Loans of the Lender acting as Swing Line Lender, may exceed the amount
of such Lender's Commitment; provided, however, that after giving effect to any
Swing Line Loan, (i) the Outstandings shall not exceed the Aggregate
Commitments, and (ii) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Loans of
any Lender, plus such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all
Swing Line Loans shall not exceed such Lender's Commitment, and provided,
further, that the Borrower shall not use the proceeds of any Swing Line Loan to
refinance any outstanding Swing Line Loan. Within the foregoing limits, and
subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow under
this Section 2.03, prepay under Section 2.04, and reborrow under this Section
2.03. Each Swing Line Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan. Immediately upon the
making of a Swing Line Loan, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby, subject
to the condition set forth in Section 2.03(a)(ii) above, irrevocably and
unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender a risk
participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such
Lender's Pro Rata Share times the amount of such Swing Line Loan.

      (b) Borrowing Procedures. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made upon the
Borrower's irrevocable notice to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative
Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the
Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the
requested borrowing date, and shall specify (i) the amount to be borrowed, which
shall be a minimum of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess
thereof), and (ii) the requested borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day.
Each such telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Swing
Line Lender and the Administrative Agent of a written Swing Line Loan Notice,
appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower.
Promptly after receipt by the Swing Line Lender of any telephonic Swing Line
Loan Notice, the Swing Line Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent
(by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received
such Swing Line Loan Notice and, if not, the Swing Line Lender will notify the
Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof.
Unless the Swing Line Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing)
from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of any Lender) prior to
2:00 p.m. on the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing (A) directing the
Swing Line Lender not to make such Swing Line Loan as a result of the
limitations set forth in the first proviso to the first sentence of Section
2.03(a), or (B) that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in
Article IV is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions
hereof, the Swing Line Lender will, not later than 3:00 p.m. on the borrowing
date specified in such Swing Line Loan Notice, make the amount of its Swing Line
Loan available to the Borrower at its office by crediting the account of the
Borrower on the books of the Swing Line Lender in immediately available funds.

      (c) Refinancing of Swing Line Loans.

            (i) The Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole and absolute
      discretion may request, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby
      irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf),
      that each Lender make a Base Rate Loan in an amount equal to such Lender's
      Pro Rata Share of the amount of Swing Line Loans then outstanding. Such
      request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to
      be a Revolving Loan Notice for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the
      requirements of Section 2.02, without regard to the minimum and multiples
      specified therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans. The Swing
      Line Lender shall furnish the Borrower with a copy of the applicable
      Revolving Loan Notice promptly after delivering such notice to the
      Administrative Agent. Each Lender shall make an amount equal to its Pro
      Rata Share of the amount specified in such Revolving Loan Notice available
      to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds for the account
      of the Swing Line Lender at the Administrative Agent's Office not later
      than 1:00 p.m. on the day specified in such Revolving Loan Notice,
      whereupon, subject to Section 2.03(c)(ii), each Lender that so makes funds
      available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the Borrower in
      such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to
      the Swing Line Lender.

            (ii) If for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by
      such a Revolving Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.03(c)(i) because
      the conditions to borrowing in Section 4.02 have not been satisfied, the
      request for Base Rate Loans submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set
      forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Swing Line Lender that
      each of the Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line
      Loan and each Lender's payment to the Administrative Agent for the account
      of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) shall be deemed
      payment in respect of such participation.

            (iii) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative
      Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender any amount required to be
      paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section
      2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(i), the Swing Line Lender
      shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the
      Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for
      the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which
      such payment is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a rate
      per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. A
      certificate of the Swing Line Lender submitted to any Lender (through the
      Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause
      (iii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

            (iv) Each Lender's obligation to make Revolving Loans or to purchase
      and fund risk participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section
      2.03(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by
      any circumstance, including (A) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment,
      defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Swing Line
      Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B)
      the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence,
      event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing,
      including whether or

                                       30
<PAGE>

      not the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 shall have been satisfied. No
      such funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the
      obligation of the Borrower to repay Swing Line Loans, together with
      interest as provided herein.

      (d) Repayment of Participations.

            (i) At any time after any Lender has purchased and funded a risk
      participation in a Swing Line Loan, if the Swing Line Lender receives any
      payment on account of such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender will
      distribute to such Lender its Pro Rata Share of such payment
      (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the
      period of time during which such Lender's risk participation was funded)
      in the same funds as those received by the Swing Line Lender.

            (ii) If any payment received by the Swing Line Lender in respect of
      principal or interest on any Swing Line Loan is required to be returned by
      the Swing Line Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section
      10.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swing Line
      Lender in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to the Swing Line Lender
      its Pro Rata Share thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus
      interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is
      returned, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate. The
      Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swing
      Line Lender.

      (e) Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender. The Swing Line Lender shall
be responsible for invoicing the Borrower for interest on the Swing Line Loans.
Until each Lender funds its Base Rate Loan or risk participation pursuant to
this Section 2.03 to refinance such Lender's Pro Rata Share of any Swing Line
Loan, interest in respect of such Pro Rata Share shall be solely for the account
of the Swing Line Lender.

      (f) Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender. The Borrower shall make all
payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line Loans directly
to the Swing Line Lender.

      2.04 PREPAYMENTS.

      (a) The Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time
or from time to time voluntarily prepay Revolving Loans in whole or in part
without premium or penalty; provided that (i) such notice must be received by
the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (A) three Business Days prior
to any date of prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans and (B) one Business Day
prior to any date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans; (ii) any prepayment of
Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole
multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; and (iii) any prepayment of Base Rate
Loans shall be in a principal amount of $3,000,000 or a whole multiple of
$1,000,000 in excess thereof or, in each case, if less, the entire principal
amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and
amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of Revolving Loans to be prepaid. The
Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each
such notice, and of the amount of such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such
prepayment. If such notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make
such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and
payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of a Eurodollar

                                       31

<PAGE>

Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon, together with
any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05. Each such prepayment
shall be applied to the Revolving Loans of the Lenders in accordance with their
respective Pro Rata Shares.

      (b) The Borrower may, upon notice to the Swing Line Lender (with a copy to
the Administrative Agent), at any time or from time to time, voluntarily prepay
Swing Line Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that
(i) such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative
Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date of the prepayment, and (ii) any such
prepayment shall be in a minimum principal amount of $100,000, or, if less, the
entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify
the date and amount of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the Borrower,
the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such
notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein.

      (c) If for any reason the Outstandings at any time exceed the Aggregate
Commitments then in effect, the Borrower shall immediately prepay Loans in an
aggregate amount equal to such excess.

      2.05 TERMINATION OR REDUCTION OF COMMITMENTS. The Borrower may, upon
notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate the Aggregate Commitments, or from
time to time permanently reduce the Aggregate Commitments; provided that (i) any
such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00
a.m. three Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, (ii) any
such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or any
whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (iii) the Borrower shall not
terminate or reduce the Aggregate Commitments if, after giving effect thereto
and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, the Outstandings would exceed the
Aggregate Commitments, (iv) if, after giving effect to any reduction of the
Aggregate Commitments, the Swing Line Sublimit exceeds the amount of the
Aggregate Commitments, such Sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the
amount of such excess and (v) the Borrower shall not, prior to the Maturity
Date, at any time the lenders under the FNF Credit Agreement have outstanding
commitments to lend thereunder, terminate the Aggregate Commitments in whole or
reduce the Aggregate Commitments to an amount less than $200,000,000, provided
that the Borrower may terminate the Aggregate Commitments in whole
simultaneously with the termination in whole by the lenders under the FNF Credit
Agreement of their outstanding commitments to lend thereunder. The
Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such notice of
termination or reduction of the Aggregate Commitments. Any reduction of the
Aggregate Commitments shall be applied to the Commitment of each Lender
according to its Pro Rata Share. All Facility Fees accrued until the closing
date of any termination of the Aggregate Commitments shall be paid on the
closing date of such termination.

      2.06 REPAYMENT OF LOANS.

      (a) The Borrower shall repay to the Lenders on the Maturity Date the
aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans outstanding on such date.

      (b) The Borrower shall repay each Swing Line Loan on the earlier to occur
of (i) the date 10 days after such Loan is made and (ii) the Maturity Date.

                                       32
<PAGE>

      2.07 INTEREST.

      (a) Subject to the provisions of subsection (b) below, (i) each Eurodollar
Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for
each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate for such
Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate; (ii) each Base Rate Loan shall bear
interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable
borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate; and (iii) each Swing
Line Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from
the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate.

      (b) If any amount payable by the Borrower under any Loan Document is not
paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at
stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, such amount shall thereafter bear
interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the
Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. Furthermore,
upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, the
Borrower shall pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding
Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times
equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.
Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due
interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

      (c) Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each
Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be
specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with
the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the
commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

      2.08 FEES.

      (a) Facility Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for
the account of each Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, a facility fee
("Facility Fee") equal to the Applicable Rate times the actual daily amount of
the Aggregate Commitments (or, if the Aggregate Commitments have terminated, on
the Outstanding Amount of all Loans), regardless of usage. The Facility Fee
shall accrue at all times during the Availability Period (and thereafter so long
as any Loans remain outstanding), including at any time during which one or more
of the conditions in Article IV is not met, and shall be due and payable
quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and
December, commencing December 31, 2005, and on the Maturity Date (and, if
applicable, thereafter on demand). The Facility Fee shall be calculated
quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Rate during
any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the
Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such
Applicable Rate was in effect.

      (b) Other Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Arranger, the Administrative
Agent and each Lender for their own respective accounts fees in the amounts and
at the times specified in the Fee Letter. Such fees shall be fully earned when
paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

                                       33

<PAGE>

      2.09 COMPUTATION OF INTEREST AND FEES. All computations of the Facility
Fee and interest for Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is determined by Bank of
America's "prime rate" shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days,
as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and
interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed
(which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if
computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on each Loan for
the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any
portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided
that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject
to Section 2.11(a), bear interest for one day.

      2.10 EVIDENCE OF DEBT.

      (a) The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or
more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative
Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by
the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest
error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to the Borrower
and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in
doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the
Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In
the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any
Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of
such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control
in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through
the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender
(through the Administrative Agent) a Revolving Loan Note and/or a Swing Line
Note, as applicable, which shall evidence such Lender's Loans in addition to
such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and
endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans
and payments with respect thereto.

      (b) In addition to the accounts and records referred to in subsection (a),
each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its
usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such
Lender of participations in Swing Line Loans. In the event of any conflict
between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the
accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and
records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest
error.

      2.11 PAYMENTS GENERALLY.

      (a) General. All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without
condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff.
Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower
hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the
respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent's
Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on
the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to
each Lender its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) of
such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender's Lending
Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. shall
be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable
interest or fee shall continue to accrue. Subject to the

                                       34

<PAGE>

provisions of the definition of "Interest Period", if any payment to be made by
the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be
made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be
reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

      (b)    (i) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless
the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the
proposed date of any Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans (or, in the case of any
Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 12:00 noon on the date of such Borrowing)
that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such
Lender's share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such
Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section
2.02 (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender has
made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by Section
2.02) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower
a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its
share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then
the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the
Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in
immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and
including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but
excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of
a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a
rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry
rules on interbank compensation and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by
the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If the Borrower
and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same
or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the
Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If
such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative
Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender's Loan included in
such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any
claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such
payment to the Administrative Agent.

            (ii) Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent.
Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower
prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for
the account of the Lenders that the Borrower will not make such payment, the
Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such
date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption,
distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not
in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to
the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such
Lender, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from
and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the
date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds
Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with
banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

      A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with
respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive,
absent manifest error.

                                       35

<PAGE>

      (c) Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available
to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as
provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not
made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the
conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article IV are not
satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative
Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to
such Lender, without interest.

      (d) Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders
hereunder to make Revolving Loans and to fund participations in Swing Line Loans
are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Revolving Loan
or to fund any such participation on any date required hereunder shall not
relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date,
and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so
make its Revolving Loan or purchase its participation.

      (e) Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender
to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to
constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain
the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

      2.12 SHARING OF PAYMENTS. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of
setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal
of or interest on any of the Revolving Loans made by it, or the participations
in Swing Line Loans held by it resulting in such Lender's receiving payment of a
proportion of the aggregate amount of such Revolving Loans or participations and
accrued interest thereon greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided
herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the
Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value)
participations in the Revolving Loans and subparticipations in Swing Line Loans
of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so
that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in
accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on
their respective Revolving Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that:

            (i) if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased
      and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered,
      such participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the
      purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest;
      and

            (ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply
      to (x) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with
      the express terms of this Agreement or (y) any payment obtained by a
      Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation
      in any of its Revolving Loans or subparticipations in Swing Line Loans to
      any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary
      thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply).

      The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may
effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a
participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the
Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to

                                       36

<PAGE>

such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the
Borrower in the amount of such participation.

                                  ARTICLE III.
                     TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

      3.01 TAXES.

      (a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any
obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be
made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified
Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that if the Borrower shall be required by
applicable law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from
such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that
after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to
additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent or Lender,
as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received
had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions
and (iii) the Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

      (b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. Without limiting the
provisions of subsection (a) above, the Borrower shall timely pay any Other
Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

      (c) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the
Administrative Agent and each Lender, within 30 days after demand therefor
accompanied by the certificate described below in this clause (c), for the full
amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this
Section) paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be,
and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with
respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were
correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.
A certificate, showing the calculation of the amount owed in reasonable detail,
as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a
Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent
on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest
error.

      (d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority,
the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a
certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing
such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of
such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

      (e) Status of Lenders. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption
from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which
the Borrower is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such
jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any other
Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the

                                       37

<PAGE>

Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or
reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, 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 of
withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by
applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative
Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine
whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information
reporting requirements.

      Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the
Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States, any Foreign Lender
shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of
copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which
such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time
thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but
only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the
following is applicable:

            (i) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN
      claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the
      United States is a party,

            (ii) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI,

            (iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the
      exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a
      certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a "bank"
      within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a "10 percent
      shareholder" of the Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of
      the Code, or (C) a "controlled foreign corporation" described in section
      881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue
      Service Form W-8BEN, or

            (iv) any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for
      claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal
      withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary
      documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the
      Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

      (f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If the Administrative Agent or any
Lender determines that it has received a refund of any 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, it shall pay to
the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity
payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section
with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all
out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case
may be, 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 the Administrative 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 the Administrative Agent or
such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to
repay

                                       38

<PAGE>

such refund to such Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not be
construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available
its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems
confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

      3.02 ILLEGALITY. If any Lender determines that any Law has made it
unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful,
for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund
Eurodollar Rate Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the
Eurodollar Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions
on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of,
Dollars in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender
to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender
to make or continue Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to
Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such
determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall,
upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay
or, if applicable, convert all Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate
Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender
may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or
immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such
Eurodollar Rate Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower
shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. Each
Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will
avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such
Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

      3.03 INABILITY TO DETERMINE RATES. If the Required Lenders determine that
for any reason in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Rate Loan or a
conversion to or continuation thereof that (a) Dollar deposits are not being
offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable
amount and Interest Period of such Eurodollar Rate Loan, (b) adequate and
reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any
requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan, or
(c) the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a
proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to
such Lenders of funding such Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so
notify the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders
to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until the
Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such
notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request
for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans or,
failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a
Revolving Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

      3.04 INCREASED COST AND REDUCED RETURN; CAPITAL ADEQUACY; RESERVES ON
EURODOLLAR RATE LOANS.

      (a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

            (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit,
      compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets
      of, deposits with

                                       39

<PAGE>

      or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any
      Lender (except any reserve requirement);

            (ii) subject any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with
      respect to this Agreement or any Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it, or
      change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof
      (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 3.01 and
      the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable
      by such Lender); or

            (iii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other
      condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Rate
      Loans made by such Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such
Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Loan (or of maintaining its
obligation to make any such Loan), or to reduce the amount of any sum received
or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any
other amount) then, within 30 days after receipt of a request of such Lender
accompanied by the certificate described in clause (c) below, the Borrower will
pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such
Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered, provided that
no Lender shall make a demand for payment hereunder unless such Lender is also
making demand for payment on similarly situated borrowers.

      (b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law
affecting such Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender's
holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the
effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's capital or on the capital
of such Lender's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement,
the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by such Lender, to a level
below that which such Lender or such Lender's holding company could have
achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender's
policies and the policies of such Lender's holding company with respect to
capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender
such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such
Lender's holding company for any such reduction suffered, provided that no
Lender shall make a demand for payment hereunder unless such Lender is also
making demand for payment on similarly situated borrowers.

      (c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender setting
forth in reasonable detail the computation of the amount or amounts necessary to
compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified
in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower
contemporaneously with any demand for payment and shall be conclusive absent
manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on
any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

      (d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to
demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall
not constitute a waiver of such Lender's right to demand such compensation,
provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant
to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any

                                       40

<PAGE>

increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to
the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise
to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender's intention to claim
compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such
increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period
referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect
thereof).

      (e) Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans. The Borrower shall pay to each
Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with
respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds
or deposits (currently known as "Eurocurrency liabilities"), additional interest
on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Loan equal to the actual
costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by
such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which shall
be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan,
provided the Borrower shall have received at least 10 days' prior notice (with a
copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest from such Lender.
If a Lender fails to give notice 10 days prior to the relevant Interest Payment
Date, such additional interest shall be due and payable 10 days from receipt of
such notice.

      3.05 COMPENSATION FOR LOSSES. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to
the Administrative Agent) from time to time, setting forth in reasonable detail
the amount payable to such Lender, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such
Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred
by it as a result of:

      (a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan other
than a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period
for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of
acceleration, or otherwise, but excluding any payment or prepayment as a result
of a Lender's failure to make a payment pursuant to Section 2.11(b)(i));

      (b) any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of
such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Loan
other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the
Borrower; or

      (c) any assignment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last
day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Borrower
pursuant to Section 10.13;

including any loss, cost or expense (excluding loss of anticipated profits)
arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain
such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds
were obtained. The Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees
charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under
this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar
Rate Loan made by it at the Eurodollar Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit
or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable
amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Rate Loan was
in fact so funded.

      3.06 MITIGATION OBLIGATIONS; REPLACEMENT OF LENDERS.

      (a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests
compensation under Section 3.04, or the Borrower is required to pay any
additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of
any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to
Section 3.02, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a
different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign
its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or
affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment
(i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04,
as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant
to Section 3.02, as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such
Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be
disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable
costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such
designation or assignment.

      (b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under
Sections 3.02 or 3.04, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional
amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender
pursuant to Section 3.01, the Borrower may replace such Lender in accordance
with Section 10.13.

      3.07 SURVIVAL. All of the Borrower's obligations under this Article III
shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of all
other Obligations hereunder.

qualified and is licensed and in good standing under the Laws of each

reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

      5.02 AUTHORIZATION; NO CONTRAVENTION. The execution, delivery and
performance by the Borrower of each Loan Document to which it is party, have
been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational action,

reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

      5.08 OWNERSHIP OF PROPERTY; LIENS. Each of the Borrower and each
Subsidiary has good record and indefeasible title to, or valid leasehold
interests in, their respective real properties, except for such defects in title

Material Adverse Effect. The property of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries is
subject to no Liens, other than Permitted Liens.

      5.09 ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE. The Borrower and its Subsidiaries have
complied with all Environmental Laws, except for any Environmental Laws the

be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

full force and effect with respect to its properties and business in such
amounts, covering such risks and liabilities and with such deductibles or

<PAGE>

diligently conducted and for which adequate reserves have been provided in
accordance with GAAP or SAP, as applicable, or (b) immaterial. There is no
proposed tax assessment against the Borrower or any Subsidiary that would be
reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

      5.12 ERISA COMPLIANCE. Except as specifically disclosed on Schedule 5.12:

      (a) Each Plan is in compliance with the applicable provisions of ERISA,
the Code and other Federal or state Laws except where noncompliance could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Plan that is
intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable
determination letter from the IRS or an application for such a letter is
currently being processed by the IRS with respect thereto and, to the best
knowledge of the Borrower, nothing has occurred which would prevent, or cause
the loss of, such qualification. The Borrower and each ERISA Affiliate have made
all required material contributions to each Plan subject to Section 412 of the
Code, and no application for a funding waiver or an extension of any
amortization period pursuant to Section 412 of the Code has been made with
respect to any Plan.

      (b) There are no pending or, to the best knowledge of the Borrower,
threatened claims, actions or lawsuits, or action by any Governmental Authority,
with respect to any Plan that could reasonably be expected to have a Material

the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred, or reasonably expects to

Pension Plan (other than premiums due and not delinquent under Section 4007 of
ERISA); (iv) neither the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred, or
reasonably expects to incur, any material liability (and no event has occurred
which, with the giving of notice under Section 4219 of ERISA, would result in
such material liability) under Sections 4201 or 4243 of ERISA with respect to a
Multiemployer Plan; and (v) neither the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has
engaged in a transaction that could be subject to Sections 4069 or 4212(c) of
ERISA.

patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, licenses and other
rights that are used by the Borrower or such Subsidiary in connection with the
operation of their respective businesses, without conflict with the rights of
any other Person, except where the failure to have any such rights could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

      5.14 SUBSIDIARIES. The Borrower has no Subsidiaries other than those
specifically disclosed on Schedule 5.14 and, after the Closing Date, those
permitted in accordance with Section 7.03, and there are no restrictions on the
Borrower or any of its Material Subsidiaries which prohibit or otherwise
restrict (i) the ability of the Borrower or any of its Material Subsidiaries to
grant any Liens on any of their respective assets (other than with respect to
assets covered by Capital Leases or purchase money security interests) or (ii)
the transfer of cash or

                                       47

<PAGE>

other assets from any Material Subsidiary to the Borrower, other than
prohibitions or restrictions existing under or by reason of any Loan Document,
the Public Debentures (but only to the extent such Public Debentures require
that the holders thereof be granted a pari-passu Lien if a Lien is granted to
another Person), Legal Requirements, customary non-assignment provisions in
contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business and consistent with
past practices and Department policies and practices that restrict the ability
of Insurance Subsidiaries to grant Liens on, pledge or transfer assets.

      5.15 MARGIN REGULATIONS; INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT; PUBLIC UTILITY HOLDING
COMPANY ACT. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is engaged or will
engage, principally or as one of its important activities, in the business of
extending credit for the purpose of "purchasing" or "carrying" "margin stock"
within the respective meanings of each of the quoted terms under Regulation U of
the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as now and from time to
time hereafter in effect. No part of the proceeds of any Credit Extensions
hereunder will be used for "purchasing" or "carrying" "margin stock" as so
defined or for any purpose which violates, or which would be inconsistent with,
the provisions of Regulations U or X of such Board of Governors. Neither the
Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries (a) is a "holding company", or a
"subsidiary company" of a "holding company", or an "affiliate" of a "holding
company" or of a "subsidiary company" of a "holding company", within the meaning
of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, or (b) is or is required to
be registered as an "investment company" under the Investment Company Act of
1940.

      5.16 DISCLOSURE. The Borrower has disclosed to the Administrative Agent
and the Lenders all agreements, instruments and corporate or other restrictions
to which it or any of its Subsidiaries is subject, and all other matters known
to it, that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect. No report, financial statement, certificate
or other factual information furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the transactions
contemplated hereby and the negotiation of this Agreement or delivered hereunder
(as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished) contains any
material misstatement of fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to
make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading on the date when made; provided that, with respect to
projected financial information, the Borrower represents only that such
information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be
reasonable at the time.

      5.17 COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries is in
compliance in all material respects with the requirements of all Laws and all
orders, writs, injunctions and decrees applicable to it or to its properties,
except in such instances in which (a) such requirement of Law or order, writ,
injunction or decree is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings
diligently conducted or (b) the failure to comply therewith, either individually
or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

      5.18 SOLVENT. The Borrower is, and the Borrower and its Subsidiaries are,
on a consolidated basis, Solvent.

                                       48

<PAGE>

      5.19 LICENSES. No License, the loss of which could reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect, is the subject of a proceeding for suspension
or revocation which is reasonably likely to result in a suspension or
revocation. To the knowledge of the Responsible Officers of the Borrower, there
is no sustainable basis for such suspension or revocation of any License, the
loss of which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

      5.20 EMPLOYEE MATTERS. There are no strikes, work stoppages, election or
decertification petitions or proceedings, unfair labor charges, equal employment
opportunity proceedings, wage payment or material unemployment compensation
proceedings, material workers' compensation proceedings or other material
labor/employee related controversies pending or, to the knowledge of the

the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were
not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor
to the Lenders.

      9.03 EXCULPATORY PROVISIONS. The Administrative Agent shall not have any
duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other
Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Administrative Agent:

      (a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties,
regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

      (b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise
any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly
contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent
is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such
other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for
herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent
shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of
its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is
contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law; and

      (c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan
Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to
disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that
is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent
or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

      The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not
taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or
such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the
Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the
circumstances as provided in Sections 10.01 and 8.02) or (ii) in the absence of
its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall
be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice
describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, or
a Lender.

      The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to
ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in
or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the
contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or
thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or
observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set
forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity,
enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan
Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction
of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to
confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the
Administrative Agent.

      9.04 RELIANCE BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. The Administrative Agent shall be
entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any
notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other
writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting
or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have

                                       68
<PAGE>

been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The
Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by
telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall
not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any
condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, that by its terms must be fulfilled
to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such
condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall
have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of
such Loan. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be
counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by
it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in
accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

      9.05 DELEGATION OF DUTIES. The Administrative Agent may perform any and
all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any
other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the
Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may
perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or
through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this
Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the
Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective
activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided
for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

      9.06 RESIGNATION OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. The Administrative Agent may
resign at any time upon at least 30 days prior written notice to the Lenders and
the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required
Lenders shall have the right, with the prior consent of the Borrower (which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and in any event shall not
be required at any time a Default or Event of Default exists), to appoint a
successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an
Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such
successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have
accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent
gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on
behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the
qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall
notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such
appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in
accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be
discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the
Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents,
the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral
security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and
(2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to
or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender
directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor
Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance
of a successor's appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor
shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges
and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring
Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations
hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom
as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a
successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its
predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor.
After the

                                       69
<PAGE>

retiring Administrative Agent's resignation hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.04 shall continue in
effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and
their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to
be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as
Administrative Agent.

      Any resignation by Bank of America as Administrative Agent pursuant to
this Section shall also constitute its resignation as Swing Line Lender. Upon
the acceptance of a successor's appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder,
(a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights,
powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Swing Line Lender, and (b) the
retiring Swing Line Lender shall be discharged from all of its duties and
obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.

      9.07 NON-RELIANCE ON ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND OTHER LENDERS. Each Lender
acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and
based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its
own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also
acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and
based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem
appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action
under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related
agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

      9.08 NO OTHER DUTIES, ETC. Anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, none of the Bookrunners, Arrangers, Co-Syndication Agents or
Co-Senior Managing Agents listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers,
duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent or
a Lender hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders or other
Persons so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship
with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not
rely, on any of the Lenders or other Persons so identified in deciding to enter
into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

      9.09 ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT MAY FILE PROOFS OF CLAIM. In case of the
pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial
proceeding relative to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of
whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein
expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the
Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be
entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

      (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and
interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that
are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or
advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative
Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their

                                       70
<PAGE>

respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the
Administrative Agent under Sections 2.08 and 10.04) allowed in such judicial
proceeding; and

      (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or
deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or
other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by
each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event
that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments
directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for
the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the
Administrative Agent under Sections 2.08 and 10.04.

      Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative
Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any
plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the
Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent
to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

                                   ARTICLE X.
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

      10.01 AMENDMENTS, ETC. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no consent to any departure by the
Borrower therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing signed by the Required
Lenders and the Borrower and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent, and each
such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for
the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such amendment,
waiver or consent shall:

      (a) waive any condition set forth in Section 4.01(a) without the written
consent of each Lender;

      (b) extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender (or reinstate any
Commitment terminated pursuant to Section 2.05 or Section 8.02) without the
written consent of such Lender;

      (c) postpone any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Loan Document
for any payment or mandatory prepayment of principal, interest, fees or other
amounts due to the Lenders (or any of them) hereunder or under any other Loan

      (d) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on,
any Loan, or (subject to clause (iii)) of the second proviso to this Section
10.01) any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan
Document without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;
provided, however, that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be
necessary to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest at the Default
Rate;

                                       71
<PAGE>

      (e) change Section 2.12 or Section 8.03 or the definition of "Pro Rata
Share" in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required
thereby without the written consent of each Lender; or

      (f) change any provision of this Section or the definition of "Required
Lenders" or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of
Lenders required to amend, waive or otherwise modify any rights hereunder or
make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written
consent of each Lender;

and, provided further, that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in
writing and signed by the Swing Line Lender in addition to the Lenders required
above, affect the rights or duties of the Swing Line Lender under this
Agreement; (ii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and
signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above,
affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or
any other Loan Document; and (iii) the Fee Letter may be amended, or rights or
privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed only by the parties thereto.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have
any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder,
except that the Commitment of such Lender may not be increased or extended
without the consent of such Lender.

      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.01,
in the event that the Borrower requests that this Agreement be modified or
amended in a manner that would require the unanimous consent of all of the
Lenders and such modification or amendment is agreed to by the Required Lenders,
then with the consent of the Required Lenders, the Borrower shall be permitted
to effect the replacement of the Lender or Lenders that did not agree to the
modification or amendment requested by the Borrower (such Lender or Lenders,
collectively the "Minority Lenders") in accordance with Section 10.13.

      10.02 NOTICES; EFFECTIVENESS; ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATION.

<PAGE>

      designated by such party in a notice to the Borrower, the Administrative
      Agent and the Swing Line Lender.

Notices sent by hand or overnight courier service, or mailed by certified or
registered mail, shall be deemed to have been given when received; notices sent

      (b) Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the
Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication
(including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures
approved by the Administrative Agent or as otherwise provided in this Agreement,
provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender pursuant to
Article II if such Lender has notified the Administrative Agent that it is
incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication.
The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept
notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications
pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures
may be limited to particular notices or communications.

      Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes and except as
otherwise provided in this Agreement, (i) notices and other communications sent
to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender's receipt of an
acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the "return receipt

deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in
the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is

      (c) The Platform. THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE." THE
AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF
THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM
LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF
ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD
PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT
PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event
shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the
"Agent Parties") have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other
Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether
in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower's or the
Administrative Agent's transmission of Borrower Materials through the Internet,
except to the

                                       73
<PAGE>

extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined
by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to
have resulted from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach, in bad
faith, of this Agreement by such Agent Party; provided, however, that in no
event shall any Agent Party have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender or
any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive
damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages).

      (d) Change of Address, Etc. Each of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent
and the Swing Line Lender may change its address, telecopier or telephone number
for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties
hereto. Each other Lender may change its address, telecopier or telephone number
for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lender. In addition, each Lender agrees
to notify the Administrative Agent from time to time to ensure that the
Administrative Agent has on record (i) an effective address, contact name,
telephone number, telecopier number and electronic mail address to which notices
and other communications may be sent and (ii) accurate wire instructions for
such Lender.

      (e) Reliance by Administrative Agent and Lenders. The Administrative Agent
and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including
telephonic Revolving Loan Notices and Swing Line Loan Notices) purportedly given
by or on behalf of the Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a
manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any
other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood
by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Borrower shall
indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Related Parties of each
of them from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the
reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the
Borrower. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with the
Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of
the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.

      10.03 NO WAIVER; CUMULATIVE REMEDIES. No failure by any Lender or the
Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising,
any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or
privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies,
powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any
rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by Law.

      10.04 EXPENSES; INDEMNITY; DAMAGE WAIVER.

      (a) Costs and Expenses. The Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse the
Administrative Agent for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses

development, preparation, negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents and any amendment, waiver, consent or other modification of
the provisions hereof and thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated
hereby or thereby are consummated), and the consummation and administration of
the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including all Attorney Costs,
and (b) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent and each Lender for all
reasonable costs

                                       74
<PAGE>

and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement, attempted enforcement,
or preservation of any rights or remedies under this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents (including all such costs and expenses incurred during any "workout"
or restructuring in respect of the Obligations and during any legal proceeding,
including any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law), including all Attorney
Costs. The foregoing costs and expenses shall include all search, filing,
recording, title insurance and appraisal charges and fees and taxes related
thereto, and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent
and the cost of independent public accountants and other outside experts
reasonably retained by the Administrative Agent or, with respect to clause (b)
above, any Lender.

      (b) Indemnification and Damage Waiver by the Borrower. Whether or not the
transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Borrower shall indemnify
and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person, each Lender and their respective
Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, counsel, agents and
attorneys-in-fact (collectively the "Indemnitees") from and against any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements (including Attorney Costs)
of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred
by or asserted against any such Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out
of or in connection with (a) the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance
or administration of any Loan Document or any other agreement, letter or
instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or
the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby (other than costs of
Lenders other than Bank of America incurred solely in connection with the
negotiation of the initial terms of this Agreement and the execution and
delivery of this Agreement), (b) any Commitment or Loan or the use or proposed
use of the proceeds therefrom, or (c) any actual or prospective claim,
litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing,
whether based on contract, tort or any other theory (including any investigation
of, preparation for, settlement of, or defense of any pending or threatened
claim, investigation, litigation or proceeding) and regardless of whether any
Indemnitee is a party thereto (all the foregoing, collectively, the "Indemnified
Liabilities"); provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be
available to the extent that such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements are (i) determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final
and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or the breach, in bad faith, of the Loan
Documents by an Indemnitee or (ii) are the result of claims asserted against an
Indemnitee by another Indemnitee.

      (c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Borrower for any
reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b)
of this Section to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent
thereof) or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally
agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such
Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender's Pro Rata Share (determined as
of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is
sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or
indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may
be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such
sub-agent) in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the
foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in

                                       75
<PAGE>

connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this
subsection (c) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(d).

      (d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted
by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim
against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect,
consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages)
arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other
Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds
thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for
any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or
other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or
other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, except
to the extent that such damages are determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or the breach, in bad
faith, of the Loan Documents by an Indemnitee.

      (e) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not
later than 20 Business Days after demand therefor.

      (f) Survival. The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation
of the Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of
the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all
the other Obligations.

      10.05 PAYMENTS SET ASIDE. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf
of the Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the
Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of set-off, and such
payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof is subsequently
invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required
(including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent
or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any
other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or
otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part
thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in
full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such set-off had
not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative
Agent upon demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid
by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand
to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds
Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under clause
(b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the
Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

      10.06 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.

      (a) Successors and Assigns Generally. 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, except that the Borrower may
not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder
without the prior written consent of each Lender and no

                                       76

expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right,
remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

      (b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or
more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under
this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans
(including for purposes of this subsection (b), participations in Swing Line
Loans) at the time owing to it); provided that

            (i) except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining
      amount of the assigning Lender's Commitment and the Loans at the time
      owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of
      a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender, the aggregate
      amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans
      outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the
      principal outstanding balance of the 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 or, if "Trade Date" is specified in the Assignment
      and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $5,000,000
      unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of
      Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents
      (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided,
      however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and
      concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single
      Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee
      Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining
      whether such minimum amount has been met;

            (ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a
      proportionate part of all the assigning Lender's rights and obligations
      under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned,
      except that this clause (ii) shall not apply to rights in respect of Swing
      Line Loans;

            (iii) any assignment of a Commitment must be approved by the
      Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lender (each such consent not to
      be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless the Person that is the
      proposed assignee is itself a Lender (whether or not the proposed assignee
      would otherwise qualify as an Eligible Assignee); and

            (iv) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the
      Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption (and, to the extent that
      any such Assignment and Assumption is to be cleared through an electronic
      clearing system, the Administrative Agent currently intends, based on
      circumstances existing on the date

                                       77
<PAGE>

      hereof, to use the ClearPar Settlement System, to the extent practicable
      and consistent with then current practice), together with a processing and
      recordation fee in the amount, if any, required as set forth in Schedule
      10.06, and the Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall
      deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant
to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified
in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a
party to this Agreement 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 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, and 10.04 with
respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such
assignment. Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and
deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of
rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this
subsection 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
subsection (d) of this Section.

      (c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as
an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent's Office 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 amounts of the Loans 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 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
at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. In
addition, at any time that a request for a consent for a material or substantive
change to the Loan Documents is pending, any Lender may request and receive from
the Administrative Agent a copy of the Register.

      (d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or
notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any
Person (other than a natural person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower's
Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a "Participant") in all or a portion of such
Lender's rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a
portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender's
participations in Swing Line Loans) owing to it); provided that (i) such
Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such
Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the
performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent
and the 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 or instrument 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

                                       78
<PAGE>

amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided
that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without
the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other
modification described in the first proviso to Section 10.01 that affects such
Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that
each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and
3.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by
assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted
by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08
as though it were a Lender.

      (e) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be
entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.04 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. A
Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be
entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01 unless the Borrower is notified of the
participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the
benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 3.01(e) as though it were a
Lender.

      (f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a
security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement
(including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender,
including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve
Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from
any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for
such Lender as a party hereto.

      (g) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words "execution," "signed,"
"signature," and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be
deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic
form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or
enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based
recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in
any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and
National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act,
or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions
Act.

      (h) Resignation as Swing Line Lender after Assignment. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time Bank of America
assigns all of its Commitment and Loans pursuant to subsection (b) above, Bank
of America shall, upon 30 days' notice to the Borrower and the Lenders, resign
as Swing Line Lender. In the event of any such resignation as Swing Line Lender,
the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor
Swing Line Lender hereunder but no Lender shall be required to accept such
appointment; provided, however, that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any
such successor shall affect the resignation of Bank of America as Swing Line
Lender. If Bank of America resigns as Swing Line Lender, it shall retain all the
rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing
Line Loans made by it and outstanding as of the Closing Date of such
resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans
or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans pursuant to Section
2.03(c).

      10.07 CONFIDENTIALITY. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below),
except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates'
directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel
and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure
is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and will
agree to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent requested by any
regulatory authority; (c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or
regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party
to this Agreement; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder
or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement
of rights hereunder; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions
substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any Eligible Assignee of
or Participant in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee of or Participant in,
any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any direct or
indirect contractual counterparty or prospective counterparty (or such
contractual counterparty's or prospective counterparty's professional advisor)
to any credit derivative transaction relating to obligations of the Borrower;
(g) with the consent of the Borrower; (h) to the extent such Information (i)
becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or
(ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a
nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower without breach of
any duty of confidentiality known to the Administrative Agent or such Lender; or
(i) to the NAIC or any other similar organization. In addition, the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this
Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors,
similar service providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with the administration and
management of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Commitments, and the
Credit Extensions.

      For purposes of this Section, "Information" means all information received
from the Borrower or any Subsidiary relating to the Borrower or any Subsidiary
or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is
available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis
prior to disclosure by the Borrower or any Subsidiary. Any Person required to
maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be
considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has
exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such
Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

      Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledges that (a) the
Information may include material non-public information concerning the Borrower
or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures
regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle such
material non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including
Federal and state securities Laws.

      10.08 RIGHT OF SET-OFF. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby
authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special,
time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency, but not any deposits
held in a custodial, trust or other fiduciary capacity) at any time held and
other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or any
such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any
and all of the obligations of the

                                       80
<PAGE>

Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document to such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have
made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although
such obligations of the Borrower may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a
branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office holding such
deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Lender and their
respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and
remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or its Affiliates
may have. Each Lender agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to
give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

      10.09 INTEREST RATE LIMITATION. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the
Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest
permitted by applicable Law (the "Maximum Rate"). If the Administrative Agent or
any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate,
the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it
exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether
the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or
a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by
applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an
expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments
and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in
equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated
term of the Obligations hereunder.

      10.10 COUNTERPARTS; INTEGRATION; EFFECTIVENESS. This Agreement may be
executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different
counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when
taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other
Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the
subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and
understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except
as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall
have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent
shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the
signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed
counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective
as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

      10.11 SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. All representations and
warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document
delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith
shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such
representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the
Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by
the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding
that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of
any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full
force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall
remain unpaid or unsatisfied.

                                       81
<PAGE>

      10.12 SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality,
validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the
parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal,
invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of
which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or
unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any
other jurisdiction.

      10.13 REPLACEMENT OF LENDERS. If any Lender requests compensation under
Section 3.02 or Section 3.04, or if the Borrower is required to pay any
additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of
any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, or
if any Lender is a Minority Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense
and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent (and with
respect to the replacement of a Minority Lender, upon obtaining consent of the
Required Lenders), require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse
(in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents
required by, Section 10.06), all of its interests, rights and obligations under
this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume
such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such
assignment), provided that:

      (a) the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the
assignment fee specified in Section 10.06(b);

      (b) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the
outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and
all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents
(including any amounts under Section 3.05) from the assignee (to the extent of
such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in
the case of all other amounts);

      (c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for
compensation under Section 3.02 or Section 3.04 or payments required to be made
pursuant to Section 3.01, such assignment will result in a reduction in such
compensation or payments thereafter; and

      (d) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws.

      10.14 GOVERNING LAW.

      (a) GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE
AND TO BE PERFORMED ENTIRELY WITHIN SUCH STATE; PROVIDED THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT AND EACH LENDER SHALL RETAIN ALL RIGHTS ARISING UNDER FEDERAL LAW. THIS
AGREEMENT HAS BEEN ENTERED INTO PURSUANT TO SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK
GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW.

      (b) SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. THE BORROWER IRREVOCABLY AND
UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE

                                       82

NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW

IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH
ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT
OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT.
EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR
PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY
SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING IN THIS
AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR
PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST THE
BORROWER OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.

      (c) WAIVER OF VENUE. THE BORROWER IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES,
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW
OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT
OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT
REFERRED TO IN PARAGRAPH (B) OF THIS SECTION. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY
IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE
DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING
IN ANY SUCH COURT.

      (d) SERVICE OF PROCESS. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE
OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 10.02. NOTHING IN THIS
AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY
OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

      10.15 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES,
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A
TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR
RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS

ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH
OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE
FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE
BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS

BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

      10.16 USA PATRIOT ACT NOTICE. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent
(for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that
pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56
(signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the "Act"), it is required to obtain,
verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information
includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will
allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the
Borrower in accordance with the Act.

      10.17 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents
embodies the entire agreement and understanding among the Borrower, the Lenders
and the Administrative Agent, and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous
agreements and understandings of such Persons, verbal or written, relating to
the subject matter hereof and thereof, except that (a) the matters contained in
paragraphs 7, 8, 9 and 10 of the Commitment Letter and (b) the Fee Letter shall
survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Closing Date. In
the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of
any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control,
provided the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the
Administrative Agent, Arranger or any Lender in any other Loan Document shall
not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement.
