     2.2. Procedure for Borrowing.
          -----------------------

     (a)  Borrowing Agent on behalf of any Borrower may notify Agent prior to
11:00 a.m. on a Business Day of a Borrower's request to incur by delivery of a
Notice of Borrowing, substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.2(a) attached
                                                  --------------
hereto, on that day, a Revolving Advance hereunder.  Should any amount required
to be paid as interest hereunder, or as fees or other charges under this
Agreement or any other agreement with Agent or any Lender, or with respect to
any other Obligation, become due, same shall be deemed a request for a Revolving
Advance as of the date such payment is due, in the amount required to pay in
full such interest, fee, charge or Obligation under this Agreement or any other
agreement with Agent or any Lender, and such request shall be irrevocable.  Any
request for a Revolving Advance shall be deemed reduced automatically and
without notice so as not to be in excess of, after giving effect to the
requested Revolving Advance, (i) in the case of a request for a U.S. Revolving
Advance, an amount which would cause the aggregate amount of all U.S. Advances
outstanding to be greater than the U.S. Borrowing Base or (ii) in the case of a
request for a European Revolving Advance, an amount which would cause the
aggregate amount of all European Advances outstanding to be greater than the
European Borrowing Base.

     (b)  Notwithstanding the provisions of (a) above, in the event any Borrower
desires to obtain a Eurodollar Rate Loan, it shall give Agent at least three (3)
Business Days' prior written notice; specifying (i) the date of the proposed
borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the amount on the date of such
Revolving Advance to be borrowed, which amount shall be an integral multiple of
$500,000 in the case of Finnish Markka and $1,000,000 in the case of any other
currency, and (iii) the duration of the first Interest Period therefor.
Interest Periods for Eurodollar Loans shall be for 7 days, 14 days, one (1), two
(2), three (3) or six (6) months.  There shall not be outstanding more than ten
(10) Eurodollar Rate Loans, in the aggregate.

     (c)  Each Interest Period of a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall commence on the
date such Eurodollar Rate Loan is made and shall end on such date as a Borrower
may elect as set forth in (b)(iii) above provided that:

          (i)   any Interest Period which would otherwise end on a day which is
     not a Business Day shall be the next preceding or succeeding Business Day
     as is Bank's custom in the market to which such Eurodollar Rate Loan
     relates;

          (ii)  no Interest Period shall end after the last day of the Term; and

          (iii) any Interest Period which begins on a day for which there is no
     numerically corresponding day in the calendar month during which such
     Interest Period is to end, shall (subject to clause (i) above) end on the
     last day of such calendar month.

                                      23
<PAGE>

     Borrowing Agent shall elect the initial Interest Period applicable to a
Eurodollar Rate Loan by its notice of borrowing given to Agent pursuant to
Section 2.2(b) or by its notice of conversion given to Agent pursuant to Section
2.2(d), as the case may be.  Borrowing Agent shall elect the duration of each
succeeding Interest Period by giving irrevocable written notice to Agent of such
duration not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the last day of the then
current Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan.  If Agent does
not receive timely notice of the Interest Period elected by Borrowing Agent,
Borrowers shall be deemed to have elected to convert to a Domestic Rate Loan
subject to Section 2.2(d) hereinbelow.

     (d) Provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, any Borrower may, on the last Business Day of the then current
Interest Period applicable to any outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loan or Domestic
Rate Loan convert any such loan into a loan of another type in the same
aggregate principal amount provided that any conversion of a Eurodollar Rate
Loan shall be made only on the last Business Day of the then current Interest
Period applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan.  If Borrower desires to convert
a loan, Borrowing Agent shall give the Agent not less than three (3) Business
Days' prior written notice, specifying the date of such conversion, the loans to
be converted and if the conversion is from a Domestic Rate Loan to any other
type of loan, the duration of the first Interest Period therefor.

     (e) Borrowers may prepay the Revolving Advances in accordance with the
provisions of Section 13.1 with accrued interest on the principal being prepaid
to the date of such repayment.  In the event that any prepayment of a Eurodollar
Rate Loan is required or permitted on a date other than the last Business Day of
the then current Interest Period with respect thereto Borrowers shall indemnify
Agent and Lenders therefor in accordance with Section 2.2(f) hereof.

     (f) Subject to the limitations of the Cross-Guaranty set forth in Section
17.1 hereof, each Borrower shall indemnify Agent and Lenders and hold Agent and
Lenders harmless from and against any and all losses or expenses that Agent and
any Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of any prepayment or any
default by any Borrower in the payment of the principal of or interest on any
Eurodollar Rate Loan or failure by any Borrower to complete a borrowing of, a
prepayment of or conversion of or to a Eurodollar Rate Loan after notice thereof
has been given, including but not limited to, any interest payable by Agent or
any Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain its
Eurodollar Rate Loans hereunder.

     (g) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if any applicable law,
treaty, regulation or directive, or any change therein or in the interpretation
or application thereof, shall make it unlawful for any Lender (for purposes of
this subsection (g), the term "Lender" shall include any Lender and the office
or branch where any Lender or any corporation or bank controlling such Lender
makes or maintains any Eurodollar Rate Loans) to make or maintain its Eurodollar
Rate Loans, the obligation of any Lender to make Eurodollar Rate Loans hereunder
shall forthwith be cancelled and Borrower shall, if any affected Eurodollar Rate
Loans are then outstanding, promptly upon request from Agent, either pay all
such affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or convert such affected Eurodollar Rate
Loans into loans of another type.  If any such payment or conversion of any
Eurodollar Rate Loan is made on a day that is not applicable to such Eurodollar
Rate Loan, Borrowers shall pay such Lender, upon such Lender's request, such
amount or amounts as may be necessary to compensate such Lender for any loss or
expense

                                      24
<PAGE>

sustained or incurred by such Lender in respect of such Eurodollar Rate Loan as
a result of such payment or conversion, including (but not limited to) any
interest or other amounts payable by such Lender to lenders of funds obtained by
such Lender in order to make or maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loan. A
certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing
sentence submitted by Agent to Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest
error; provided, each Lender shall use its best efforts to minimize or avoid any
such additional payment.

     (h) Anything in Section 2.2(b) to the contrary notwithstanding, any
Borrower may obtain a Eurodollar Rate Loan upon at least three (3) Business
Days' prior written notice for an Interest Period of one month with interest on
such Eurodollar Rate Loans to be charged at the Average Monthly Eurodollar Rate.
Borrowing Agent shall specifically provide in the prior written notice that
interest is to be charged at the Average Monthly Eurodollar Rate; otherwise,
interest shall be charged at the Eurodollar Rate for Eurodollar Rate Loans
having an Interest Period of one month.

     2.3. Disbursement of Advance Proceeds.
          --------------------------------

     All Revolving Advances shall be disbursed from whichever office or other
place Agent may designate from time to time and, together with any and all other
Obligations of Borrowers to Agent or any of the Lenders, shall be charged to the
applicable Borrower's account on Agent's books.  During the Term, Borrowers may
use the Revolving Advances by borrowing, prepaying and reborrowing, all in
accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.  The proceeds of each Revolving
Advance requested on behalf of any Borrower or deemed to have been requested by
such Borrower under Section 2.2(a) hereof shall, with respect to requested
Revolving Advances to the extent the Lenders make such Revolving Advances, be
made available to such Borrower on the day so requested by way of credit to such
Borrower's operating account at the Bank, or such other bank as Borrowing Agent
may designate following notification to Agent, in federal funds or other
immediately available funds or, with respect to Revolving Advances deemed to
have been requested, be disbursed to Agent to be applied to the outstanding
Obligations giving rise to such deemed request.

     2.4. Optional Currencies.
          -------------------

          (a) Selection.  A Borrower shall, through the Borrowing Agent, select
              ---------
the currency of a Revolving Advance in the relevant notice for borrowing, which
currency must be Dollars or an Optional Currency.  No Borrower may choose a
currency if as a result the Revolving Advances would be denominated at any one
time in more than four currencies.  The Agent shall notify each Lender of the
currency and the Original Dollar Amount of each Revolving Advance and the
applicable Agent's Spot Rate of Exchange promptly after they are ascertained.

          (b) Revocation of currency.  If before 9:30 a.m. on any day falling
              ----------------------
two Business Days prior to the commencement of an Interest Period relating to a
Revolving Advance, the Agent receives notice from a Lender that:  (i) it is
impracticable for the Lender to fund its Commitment Percentage of the relevant
Revolving Advance in the relevant Optional

                                      25
<PAGE>

Currency during its Interest Period in the ordinary course of business in the
London interbank market; and/or (ii) the use of the proposed Optional Currency
might contravene any law or regulation, the Agent shall give notice to the
relevant Borrower and to the Lenders to that effect before 11:00 a.m. on that
day. In this event, (i) the relevant Borrower and the Lender may agree that the
drawdown will not be made; or (ii) (1) that Lender's Commitment Percentage of
the Revolving Advance (or, if more than one Lender is similarly affected, those
Lender's participation in the Revolving Advance) shall be treated as a separate
Advance denominated in Dollars during the relevant Interest Period; (2) in the
definition of "LIBOR" (insofar as it applies to that Revolving Advance) in
Section 1.1 (Definitions) there shall be substituted for the time "11.00 a.m."
the time "1.00 p.m.".

     (c)  Amount of Optional Currencies

          (i)  Drawdowns.  If a Revolving Advance is to be drawn in an Optional
               ---------
     Currency, the amount of each Lender's participation in that Revolving
     Advance will be determined by converting into that Optional Currency the
     Lender's participation in the Original Dollar Amount of that Revolving
     Advance on the basis of the Agent's Spot Rate of Exchange two Business Days
     before its date of borrowing.

          (ii) Notification.  The Agent shall notify the Lenders and the
               ------------
     Borrower of Optional Currency amounts (and the applicable Agent's Spot Rate
     of Exchange) promptly after they are ascertained.

     (d)  Change of Currency
          ------------------

     (i)  If more than one currency or currency unit are at the same time
          recognized by the central bank of any country as the lawful currency
          of that country, then:

          (1)  any reference in this Agreement or any other Agreement to, and
               any obligations arising under this Agreement or any other
               Agreement in, the currency of that county shall be translated
               into, or paid in, the currency or currency unit of that country
               designated by the Agent; and

          (2)  any translation from one currency or currency unit to another
               shall be at the official rate of exchange recognized by the
               central bank for the conversion of that currency or currency unit
               into the other, rounded up or down by the Agent acting
               reasonably.

     (ii) If a change in any currency of a country occurs, this Agreement will
          and each other Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to the extent
          the Agent (having consulted with the Lenders) specifies it to be
          necessary to reflect the change in currency and to put the Lenders in
          the same position, so far as possible, that they would have been in if
          no change in currency had occurred.

                                      26

     2.5. Maximum Advances.
          ----------------

Borrowers shall not exceed the U.S. Borrowing Base and (ii) the aggregate
balance of European Advances outstanding at any time to European Borrowers shall
not exceed the European Borrowing Base.

     2.6. Repayment of Advances.
          ---------------------

     (a)  The Advances shall be due and payable in full on the last day of the
Term subject to earlier prepayment as herein provided.

     (b)  Borrowers recognize that the amounts evidenced by checks, notes,
drafts or any other items of payment relating to and/or proceeds of Collateral
may not be collectible by Agent on the date received. In consideration of
Agent's agreement to conditionally credit a Borrower's account as of the
Business Day on which Agent receives those items of payment, each Borrower
agrees that, in computing the charges under this Agreement, all items of payment
shall be deemed applied by Agent on account of such Borrower's Obligations one
(1) Business Day after receipt by Agent of good funds with respect to such items
of payment. Agent is not, however, required to credit any Borrower's account for
the amount of any item of payment which is unsatisfactory to Agent and Agent may
charge such Borrower's account for the amount of any item of payment which is
returned to Agent unpaid.

     (c)  Except as set forth in Section 2.7, all payments of principal,
interest and other amounts payable hereunder, or under any of the related
agreements shall be made to Agent at the Payment Office not later than 1:00 P.M.
New York Time) on the due date therefor in lawful money of the United States of
America in federal funds or other funds immediately available to Agent. Agent
shall have the right to effectuate payment on any and all Obligations due and
owing hereunder by charging the applicable Borrower's account or by making
Advances as provided in Section 2.2 hereof.

     (d)  Borrowers shall pay principal, interest, and all other amounts payable
hereunder, or under any related agreement, without any deduction whatsoever,
including, but not limited to, any deduction for any setoff or counterclaim.

     2.7. Currency.
          --------

          (i)   A repayment or prepayment of an Advance or any part of an
                Advance is payable in the currency in which such Advance is
                denominated on its due date.

          (ii)  Interest is payable in the currency in which the relevant amount
                in respect of which it is payable is denominated.

          (iii) Amounts payable in respect of costs, expenses and taxes and the
                like are payable in the currency in which they are incurred.

                                      27
<PAGE>

          (iv)  Any other amount payable under this Agreement is, except as
                otherwise provided in this Agreement, payable in Dollars.

     2.8. Statement of Account.
          --------------------

     Agent shall maintain, in accordance with its customary procedures, a loan
account in the name of each Borrower in which shall be recorded the date and
amount of each Advance made by Lenders and the date and amount of each payment
in respect thereof; provided, however, the failure by Agent to record the date
                    --------  -------
and amount of any Advance shall not adversely affect Agent or any Lender.  Each
month, Agent shall send to Borrowing Agent a statement showing the accounting
for the Advances made, payments made or credited in respect thereof, and other
transactions between Lenders and each Borrower, during such month.  The monthly
statements shall be deemed correct and binding upon Borrowers in the absence of
manifest error and shall constitute an account stated between Lenders and
Borrowers unless Agent receives a written statement of a Borrower's specific
exceptions thereto within thirty (30) days after such statement is received by
Borrowing Agent.  The records of Agent with respect to the loan account shall be
prima facie evidence of the amounts of Advances and other charges thereto and of
----- -----
payments applicable thereto, absent manifest error.

     2.9. Letters of Credit.

cause the issuance of standby and documentary letters of credit for the European
Borrowers ("European Letters of Credit" and, together with the U.S. Letters of
Credit, "Letters of Credit") provided, however, that Agent will not be required

face amount of such European Letters of Credit plus the European Revolving
                                               ----
Advances outstanding (with the requested European Letter of Credit being deemed

     (c)  (i)  All disbursements or payments related to U.S. Letters of Credit
     shall be deemed to be U.S. Revolving Advances and shall bear interest at
     the Revolving Interest Rate for Domestic Rate Loans (unless and until
     converted to a Eurodollar Rate Loan); and to the extent not drawn upon,
     Letters of Credit that have not been drawn upon shall not bear interest.

     attached hereto as Exhibit 2.9.
                        -----------

     2.10.  Issuance of Letters of Credit.
            -----------------------------

     (a)  Borrowing Agent on behalf of any Borrower may request Agent to issue
or cause the issuance of a Letter of Credit by delivering to Agent at the
Payment Office, Agent's standard form of Letter of Credit and Security Agreement
together with Bank's standard form of Letter of Credit Application
(collectively, the "Letter of Credit Application") completed to the satisfaction
of Agent; and, such other certificates, documents and other papers and
information as Agent may reasonably request.

     (b)  Each Letter of Credit shall, among other things, (i) provide for the
payment of sight drafts when presented for honor thereunder in accordance with
the terms thereof and when accompanied by the documents described therein and
(ii) have an expiry date not later than twelve (12) months after such Letter of
Credit's date of issuance and in no event later than the last day of the Term.
Each Letter of Credit Application and each Letter of Credit shall be subject to

     2.11.  Requirements For Issuance of Letters of Credit.
            ----------------------------------------------

     (a)  In connection with the issuance of any Letter of Credit, (subject to
the limitations of the Cross-Guaranty set forth in Section 17.1 hereof)
Borrowers shall indemnify, save and hold Agent and each Lender harmless from any
loss, cost, expense or liability, including, without limitation, payments made
by Agent and any Lender, and expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by
Agent or any Lender arising out of, or in connection with, any Letter of Credit
to be issued or created for a Borrower.  Borrowers shall be bound by Agent's or
any issuing or accepting bank's regulations and good faith interpretations of
any Letter of Credit issued or created for its account, although this
interpretation may be different from its own, and, neither Agent nor any Lender,
the bank which opened the Letter of Credit, nor any of its correspondents shall
be liable for any error, negligence, or mistakes, whether of omission or
commission, in

                                      29
<PAGE>

following Borrowing Agent's or any Borrower's instructions or those contained in
any Letter of Credit or of any modifications, amendments or supplements thereto
or in issuing or paying any Letter of Credit, except for Agent's or any Lender's
or such correspondents' willful misconduct or gross (not mere) negligence.

     (b)  Borrowing Agent shall authorize and direct any bank which issues a
Letter of Credit to name the applicable Borrower as the "Account Party" therein
and to deliver to Agent all instruments, documents, and other writings and
property received by the bank pursuant to the Letter of Credit and to accept and
rely upon Agent's instructions and agreements with respect to all matters
arising in connection with the Letter of Credit, the application therefor or any
acceptance therefor.

     (c)  In connection with all Letters of Credit issued or caused to be issued
by Agent under this Agreement, each Borrower hereby appoints Agent, or its
designee, as its attorney, with full power and authority, (i) to sign and/or
endorse such Borrower's name upon any warehouse or other receipts, letter of
credit applications and acceptances; (ii) to sign such Borrower's name on bills
of lading; (iii) to clear Inventory through the United States of America Customs
Department ("Customs") in the name of such Borrower or Agent or Agent's
designee, and to sign and deliver to Customs officials powers of attorney in the
name of such Borrower for such purpose; and (iv) to complete in such Borrower's
name or Agent's, or in the name of Agent's designee, any order, sale or
transaction, obtain the necessary documents in connection therewith, and collect
the proceeds thereof.  Neither Agent nor its attorneys will be liable for any
acts or omissions nor for any error of judgment or mistakes of fact or law,
except for Agent's or its attorney's willful misconduct or gross (not mere)
negligence.  This power, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable as long
as any Letters of Credit remain outstanding.

     (d)  Each Lender shall to the extent of the percentage amount equal to the
product of such Lender's Commitment Percentage times the aggregate amount of all
disbursements made with respect to the Letters of Credit be deemed to have
irrevocably purchased an undivided participation in each U.S. Revolving Advance,
in the case of U.S. Letters of Credit, and European Revolving Advance, in the
case of European Letters of Credit, made as a consequence of such disbursement.
In the event that at the time a disbursement is made the (i) unpaid balance of
U.S. Revolving Advances exceeds or would exceed, with the making of such
disbursement, the U.S. Borrowing Base minus (1) the undrawn or unreimbursed
                                      -----
amount of outstanding U.S. Letters of Credit issued on behalf of the U.S.
Borrowers and (2) Swingline Loans outstanding, and such disbursement is not
reimbursed by U.S. Borrowers within two (2) Business Days or (ii) the unpaid
balance of European Revolving Advances exceeds or would exceed, with the making
of such disbursement, the European Borrowing Base minus the undrawn or
                                                  -----
unreimbursed amount of outstanding European Letters of Credit issued on behalf
of the European Borrowers, and such disbursement is not reimbursed by European
Borrowers within two (2) Business Days, Agent shall promptly notify each Lender
and upon Agent's demand each Lender shall pay to Agent such Lender's
proportionate share of such unreimbursed disbursement together with such
Lender's proportionate share of Agent's unreimbursed costs and expenses relating
to such unreimbursed disbursement.  Upon receipt by Agent of a repayment from
Borrowers of any amount disbursed by Agent for which Agent had already been
reimbursed by the Lenders, Agent shall deliver to each of the Lenders that
Lender's pro rata share of such repayment.  Each

                                      30
<PAGE>

Lender's participation commitment shall continue until the last to occur of any
of the following events: (A) Agent ceases to be obligated to issue Letters of
Credit hereunder; (B) no Letter of Credit issued hereunder remains outstanding
and uncancelled or (C) all Persons (other than Borrowers) have been fully
reimbursed for all payments made under or relating to Letters of Credit.

     2.12.  Additional Payments.
            -------------------

     Any sums expended by Agent or any Lender due to any Borrower's failure to
perform or comply with its obligations under this Agreement or any Other
Document including, without limitation, any Borrower's obligations under
Sections 4.2, 4.4, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14 and 6.1 hereof, may be charged to such
Borrower's account as a Revolving Advance and added to the Obligations, provided
Agent shall promptly thereafter provide to Borrowing Agent a copy of
documentation supporting such charges.

     2.13.  Manner of Borrowing and Payment.
            -------------------------------

     (a)  Each borrowing of Revolving Advances shall be advanced according to
the Commitment Percentages of the Lenders.

     (b)  Each payment (including each prepayment) by Borrowers on account of
the principal of and interest on the Revolving Advances, shall be applied to the
Revolving Advances pro rata according to the applicable Commitment Percentages
of the Lenders. Except as expressly provided herein, all payments (including
prepayments) to be made by Borrowers on account of principal, interest and fees
shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and shall be made to Agent on
behalf of the Lenders to the Payment Office, in each case on or prior to
1:00P.M., New York time, in Dollars and in immediately available funds.

     (c)  (i)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Sections
2.13(a) and (b) hereof, commencing with the first Business Day following the
Effective Date, each borrowing of Revolving Advances shall be advanced by Agent
and each payment by Borrowers on account of Revolving Advances shall be applied
first to those Revolving Advances made by Agent.  On or before 1:00 P.M., New
York time, on each Settlement Date commencing with the first Settlement Date
following the Effective Date, Agent and the Lenders shall make certain payments
as follows: (I) if the aggregate amount of new Revolving Advances made by Agent
during the preceding Week exceeds the aggregate amount of repayments applied to
outstanding Revolving Advances during such preceding Week (if any), then each
Lender shall provide Agent with funds in an amount equal to its Commitment
Percentage of the difference between (w) such Revolving Advances and (x) such
repayments and (II) if the aggregate amount of repayments applied to outstanding
Revolving Advances during such Week exceeds the aggregate amount of new
Revolving Advances made during such Week, then Agent shall provide each Lender
with funds in an amount equal to its Commitment Percentage of the difference
between (y) such repayments and (z) such Revolving Advances.

          (ii) Each Lender shall be entitled to earn interest at the applicable
     Contract Rate on outstanding Advances which it has funded.

                                      31
<PAGE>

          (iii)  Promptly following each Settlement Date, Agent shall submit to
     each Lender a certificate with respect to payments received and Advances
     made during the Week immediately preceding such Settlement Date.  Such
     certificate of Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

     (d)  If any Lender or any Transferee (a "benefitted Lender") shall at any
time receive any payment of all or part of its Advances, or interest thereon, or
receive any Collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily
or by set-off) in a greater proportion than any such payment to and Collateral
received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender's
Advances, or interest thereon, and such greater proportionate payment or receipt
of Collateral is not expressly permitted hereunder, such benefitted Lender shall
purchase for cash from the other Lenders such portion of each such other
Lender's Advances, or shall provide such other Lender with the benefits of any
such Collateral, or the proceeds thereof as shall be necessary to cause such
benefitted Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such Collateral or
proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any
                                           --------  -------
portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such
benefitted Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and
benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest Each
Lender so purchasing a portion of another Lender's Advances may exercise all
rights of payment (including, without limitation, rights of set-off) with
respect to such portion as fully as if such Lender were the direct holder of
such portion.

     (e)  Unless Agent shall have been notified by telephone, confirmed in
writing, by any Lender that such Lender will not make the amount which would
constitute its applicable Commitment Percentage of the Advances available to
Agent, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) assume that such Lender shall
make such amount available to Agent and, in reliance upon such assumption, make
available to Borrowers a corresponding amount.  Agent will promptly notify
Borrowing Agent of its receipt of any such notice from a Lender.  If such amount
is made available to Agent on a date after a Settlement Date, such Lender shall
pay to Agent on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the daily average
Federal Funds Rate (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days) during such
period as quoted by Agent, times (ii) such amount, times (iii) the number of
days from and including such Settlement Date to the date on which such amount
becomes immediately available to Agent.  A certificate of Agent submitted to any
Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph (e) shall be
conclusive, in the absence of manifest error.  If such amount is not in fact
made available to Agent by such Lender within three (3) Business Days after such
Settlement Date, Agent shall be entitled to recover such an amount, with
interest thereon at the domestic rate per annum then applicable to Revolving
Advances hereunder, on demand from Borrowers; provided, however, that Agent's
                                              --------  -------
right to such recovery shall not prejudice or otherwise adversely affect any
Borrower's rights (if any) against such Lender.

     (f)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the
event any Lender (x) has refused (which refusal constitutes a breach by such
Lender of its obligations under this Agreement) to make available its Commitment
Percentage of any Advance or (y) notifies either Agent or Borrowers that it does
not intend to make available its Commitment Percentage of any Advance (if the
actual refusal would constitute a breach by such Lender of its

                                      32
<PAGE>

obligations under this Agreement) (each, a "Lender Default"), all rights and
obligations hereunder of such Lender (a "Defaulting Lender") as to which a
Lender Default is in effect and of the other parties hereto shall be modified to
the extent of the express provisions of this Section 2.13(f) while such Lender
Default remains in effect.

          (i)   Revolving Advances shall be allocated pro rata among Lenders
                                                      --- ----
     (the "Non-Defaulting Lenders") which are not Defaulting Lenders in
     accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages, and no Commitment
     Percentage of any Lender or any pro rata share of any Revolving Advances
                                     --- ----
     required to be advanced by any Lender shall be increased as a result of
     such Lender Default. Amounts received in respect of principal of Advances
     shall be applied to reduce Advances of each Lender pro rata based on the
                                                        --- ----
     aggregate of the outstanding Advances of all Lenders at the time of such
     application; provided that, such amount shall not be applied to any
     Advances of a Defaulting Lender at any time when, and to the extent that,
     the aggregate amount of Advances of any Lender that is not a Defaulting
     Lender exceeds such Lender's Commitment Percentage of all Advances then
     outstanding.

          (ii)  Lenders shall participate in Letters of Credit on the basis of
     their respective pro rata shares, and no participation or reimbursement
                      --- ----
     obligation of any Lender shall be increased as a result of a failure of any
     Defaulting Lender to reimburse Agent with respect to any amounts drawn on
     or otherwise payable with respect to any Letters of Credit (the amount that
     any such Defaulting Lender has failed to reimburse is hereinafter referred
     to as such Defaulting Lender's "Unreimbursed Amount").  Until such
     Defaulting Lender has reimbursed Agent for any Unreimbursed Amount owed by
     it, all payments and other amounts received from any source with respect to
     the Obligations or otherwise under or in connection with this Agreement
     (including any letter of credit fees) which would otherwise be payable to
     such Defaulting Lender will instead be paid to Agent for application to
     such Unreimbursed Amount until such Unreimbursed Amount has been paid in
     full.  A Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any portion of
     the letter of credit fees or any other fees payable in connection with this
     Agreement, or any indemnity arising from its agreement to make Revolving
     Advances and/or participate in Letters of Credit hereunder.

          (iii) A Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to give instructions
     to Agent or to approve, disapprove, consent to or vote on any matters
     relating to this Agreement or the Other Documents.  All amendments, waivers
     and other modifications of this Agreement and the Other Documents may be
     made without regard to a Defaulting Lender and, solely for purposes of the
     definition of "Required Lenders", a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not
     to be a Lender and not to have Advances outstanding.

          (iv)  Other than as expressly set forth in this Section 2.13(f), the
     rights and obligations of a Defaulting Lender (including the obligation to
     indemnify Agent) and the other parties hereto shall remain unchanged.
     Nothing in this Section 2.13(f) shall be deemed to release any Defaulting
     Lender from its obligations under this Agreement or the Other Documents,
     shall alter such obligations, shall operate as a waiver of any default by
     such Defaulting Lender hereunder, or shall prejudice any rights which any
     Borrower,

                                      33
<PAGE>

     Agent or any Lender may have against any Defaulting Lender as a result of
     any default by such Defaulting Lender hereunder.

          (v) In the event a Defaulting Lender retroactively cures, to the
     satisfaction of Agent, the breach which caused such Lender to become a
     Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender shall no longer be a Defaulting
     Lender and shall be treated as a Lender under this Agreement.

     2.14. Swingline Loans.
           ---------------

     (a)  Swingline Commitment.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and
          --------------------
in reliance upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, the
Swingline Lender, in its individual capacity, agrees to make certain revolving
credit loans to the U.S. Borrowers (each a "Swingline Loan" and, collectively,
                                            --------------
the "Swingline Loans") from time to time during the Term for the purposes
     ---------------
hereinafter set forth; provided, however, (i) the aggregate principal amount of
                       --------  -------
Swingline Loans outstanding at any time shall not exceed FIVE MILLION DOLLARS
("$5,000,000) (the "Swingline Committed Amount"), and (ii) the aggregate

principal amount of all U.S. Revolving Advances outstanding at any time plus
                                                                        ----
U.S. Letters of Credit plus the requested Swingline Loan shall not exceed the
                       ----
U.S. Borrowing Base.  Swingline Loans hereunder shall be made as Domestic Rate
Loans as the U.S. Borrowers may request in accordance with the provisions of
this Section 2.14, and may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the
provisions hereof.

     (b)  Swingline Loan Advances.

                ---------------------
     time) on the Business Day of the requested Swingline Loan advance, one or
     more of the U.S. Borrowers shall submit a written Swingline Loan Request in

     Swingline Loan advance is requested, (B) the date of the requested
     Swingline Loan advance (which shall be a Business Day) and (C) the
     principal amount of the Swingline Loan advance requested. Each such notice
     shall be irrevocable. Each Swingline Loan shall be made as a Domestic Rate
     Loan and shall have such maturity date as the Swingline Lender and the
     applicable Borrower shall agree upon receipt by the Swingline Lender of any
     such Swingline Loan Request. The Swingline Lender shall initiate the
     transfer of funds representing the Swingline Loan advance to the applicable
     U.S. Borrower by 12:00 noon (New York time) on the Business Day of the
     requested borrowing.

          (ii)  Minimum Amount.  Each Swingline Loan shall be in a minimum
                --------------
     principal amount of $100,000 and in integral multiples of $100,000 in
     excess thereof (or the remaining amount of the Swingline Committed Amount,
     if less).

     Lender may, upon the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, in its
     sole discretion, by written notice to the Borrowing Agent and the Lenders,
     demand repayment of its Swingline Loans by way of a U.S. Revolving Advance,
     in which case the U.S. Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested an
     advance comprised solely of
                                      34
<PAGE>

     Domestic Rate Loans in the amount of such Swingline Loans; provided,
                                                                --------
     however, that any such demand shall be deemed to have been given one
     -------
     Business Day prior to the expiration of the Term and on the date of the
     occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 10.1 and upon
     acceleration of the indebtedness hereunder and the exercise of remedies in

     Lenders shall have no obligation to make a U.S. Revolving Advance to repay
     an outstanding Swingline Loan, if such Swingline Loan was made to a
     Borrower during the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of
     Default. Upon notice from the Agent each Lender hereby
     irrevocably agrees to make its pro rata share of each such U.S. Revolving
     Advance in the amount, in the manner and on the date specified in the
     preceding sentence notwithstanding (I) the amount of such borrowing may not
                        ---------------
     comply with the minimum amount for U.S. Revolving Advances otherwise
     required hereunder, (II) whether any conditions specified in Section 8.2
     are then satisfied, (III) whether a Default or Event of Default then
     exists, (IV) failure of any such request or deemed request for U.S.
     Revolving Advances to be made by the time otherwise required hereunder, (V)

     Advances are otherwise permitted to be made hereunder of (VI) any
     termination of the commitments relating thereto immediately prior to or
     contemporaneously with such borrowing.  In the event that any U.S.
     Revolving Advance cannot for any reason be made on the date otherwise
     required above (including, without limitation, as a result of the
     commencement of a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code with respect to any
     one of the Borrowers), then each Lender hereby agrees that it shall
     forthwith purchase (as of the date such borrowing would otherwise have
     occurred, but adjusted for any payments received from the U.S. Borrowers on
     or after such date and prior to such purchase) from the Swingline Lender
     such participations in the outstanding Swingline Loans as shall be
     necessary to cause each such Lender to share in such Swingline Loans
     ratably based upon its Commitment Percentage (determined before giving
     effect to any termination of the commitments hereunder pursuant to Section
     11.1), provided that (A) all interest payable on the Swingline Loans shall
            --------
     be for the account of the Swingline Lender until the date as of which the
     respective participation is purchased and (B) at the time any purchase of
     participations pursuant to this sentence is actually made, the purchasing
     Lender shall be required to pay to the Swingline Lender, interest on the
     principal amount of participation purchased for each day from and including
     the day upon which such borrowing would otherwise have occurred to but
     excluding the date of payment for such participation, at the rate equal to
     the Federal Funds Rate.

     (c)  Interest on Swingline Loans.
          ---------------------------

          (i)  Subject to the provisions of Section 3.1, each Swingline Loan
          shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the Alternate Base
          Rate plus the Applicable Percentage.
               ----

          (ii) Interest on Swingline Loans shall be payable in arrears in
          accordance with Section 3.1 hereof (or at such other times as may be
          specified herein).

     (d)  Swingline Note.  The Swingline Loans shall be evidenced by a duly
          --------------
executed promissory note of the U.S. Borrowers to the Swingline Lender in
substantially the form of Exhibit 2.14(d).
                          ---------------

     2.15. Utilization of Advances in Optional Currencies.
           ----------------------------------------------

     The Agent will determine the Original Dollar Amount with respect to any (i)
Advance that is requested in an Optional Currency as of the requested borrowing
date and as of any requested continuation date and (ii) outstanding Advances
denominated in Optional Currencies as of the last Business Day of each month,
and, during the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, such other
dates as may be requested by the Required Lenders (but in no event more
frequently than once a week) (each such date under clause (i) and (ii), a
"Determination Date").
-------------------

III  INTEREST AND FEES.
     -----------------

     3.1.  Interest.
           --------

     Interest on Advances shall be payable in arrears on the last day of each
month with respect to Domestic Rate Loans and, with respect to Eurodollar Rate
Loans, at the end of each Interest Period or, for Eurodollar Rate Loans with an
Interest Period in excess of three months, at the earlier of (a) the last day of
each three month period from the date of the commencement of such Eurodollar
Rate Loan or (b) the end of the Interest Period.  Interest charges shall be
computed on the actual principal of Advances outstanding during the month (the
"Monthly Advances") at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Contract Rate.
Whenever, subsequent to the date of this Agreement, the Alternate Base Rate is
increased or decreased, the applicable Contract Rate with respect to Domestic
Rate Loans shall be similarly changed without notice or demand of any kind by an
amount equal to the amount of such change in the Alternate Base Rate during the
time such change or changes remain in effect.  Upon and after the occurrence of
an Event of Default, and during the continuation thereof, the Obligations shall
bear interest at the applicable Revolving Interest Rate plus two (2%) percent
per annum (the "Default Rate").  So long as no Default or Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, the Applicable Margin shall be increased or
decreased, as the case may be, as of the first day of each month following the
fiscal quarter reported upon in the financial statements delivered pursuant to
Sections 9.8 and 9.9 hereof, commencing with fiscal quarter ending September 24,
1999, based upon the ratio of Funded Indebtedness to EBITDA with respect to the
four (4) fiscal quarters then ended as reported upon in the applicable financial
statements.

     3.2.  Letter of Credit Fees.
           ---------------------

     Borrowers shall pay Agent (i) for the ratable benefit of the Lenders for
issuing or causing the issuance of a Standby Letter of Credit, a fee computed at
a rate per annum of one and three quarters percent (1.75%) on the outstanding
amount thereof from time to time, (ii) for the ratable benefit of the Lenders
for issuing or causing the issuance of a Documentary Letter of Credit, a fee
computed at a rate per annum of one and one half percent (1.50%) of the original
and each increase in the face amount thereof, (iii) for its own account, a
letter of credit fronting and negotiation fee of .125% per annum on the maximum
amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit, payable upon the
issuance of each such Letter of Credit, and (iv) Bank's other customary charges
payable in connection with Letters of Credit as in effect from time to time

                                      36
<PAGE>

(which charges shall be furnished to Borrowers by Agent upon request). Such fees
and charges shall be payable in the case of any Letter of Credit, on its opening
monthly thereafter in advance and upon each increase in the outstanding amount
thereof. Any such charge in effect at the time of a particular transaction shall
be the charge for that transaction, notwithstanding any subsequent change in
Bank's prevailing charges for that type of transaction. All Letter of Credit
Fees payable hereunder shall be deemed earned in full on the date when the same
are due and payable hereunder and shall not be subject to rebate or proration
upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason.

     3.3. Fees.
          ----

     (a)  Intentionally Omitted.

     (b)  Facility Fee.

          If, for any month during the Term, the average daily unpaid balance of
     the Revolving Advances for each day of such month plus outstanding Letters
                                                       ----
     of Credit does not equal the Maximum Loan Amount (any outstanding Swingline
     Loans being considered unused for this purpose) then Borrowers shall pay to
     Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders a fee at a rate equal to the
     Applicable Margin for Facility Fee per annum on the amount by which the
     Maximum Loan Amount exceeds such average daily unpaid balance plus
     outstanding Letters of Credit.  Such fee shall be payable to Agent in
     arrears on the last day of each month and on the last day of the Term.  So
     long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
     continuing, the Applicable Margin with respect to the facility fee shall be
     increased or decreased, as the case may be, as of the first day of each
     month following the fiscal quarter reported upon in the financial
     statements delivered pursuant to Sections 9.8 and 9.9 hereof, commencing
     with fiscal quarter ending September 24, 1999, based upon the ratio of
     Funded Indebtedness to EBITDA with respect to the four (4) fiscal quarters
     then ended as reported upon in the applicable financial statements.

     (c)  Agency Fee.

     Borrower shall pay to Agent (for the sole benefit of Agent) an agency fee
of $40,000 per annum payable to Agent on the Effective Date and on each
anniversary date thereafter during the Term.  The agency fee shall be deemed
earned in full on the date when same is due and payable hereunder and shall not
be subject to rebate or proration upon termination of this Agreement for any
reason.

                                      37
<PAGE>

     3.4. Collateral Monitoring Fee.
          -------------------------

     Borrower shall pay to Agent (for the sole benefit of Agent) on the first
day of each month following any month in which Agent performs any collateral
monitoring - namely any field examination, collateral analysis or other business
analysis, the need for which is to be determined by Agent and which monitoring
is undertaken by Agent or for Agent's benefit - a collateral monitoring fee in
an amount equal to $750 per day for each person performing such monitoring, plus
all costs and disbursements incurred by Agent in the performance of such
examination or analysis.

     3.5. Computation of Interest and Fees.
          --------------------------------

     Interest and fees hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360
days and for the actual number of days elapsed.  If any payment to be made
hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the due
date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest
thereon shall be payable at the applicable Contract Rate during such extension.

     3.6. Maximum Charges.
          ---------------

     In no event whatsoever shall interest and other charges charged hereunder
exceed the highest rate permissible under law which a court of competent
jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable hereto.  In the
event that a court determines that Agent or any Lender has received interest and
other charges hereunder in excess of the highest rate permissible hereto, such
excess amount shall be first applied to any unpaid principal balance owed by
Borrowers, and if the then remaining excess amount is greater than the
previously unpaid principal balance, the Lenders shall promptly refund such
excess amount to Borrowers and the provisions hereof shall be deemed amended to
provide for such permissible rate.

     3.7. Increased Costs.
          ---------------

     In the event that any applicable law, treaty or governmental regulation, or
any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance
by any Lender (for purposes of this Section 3.7, the term "Lender" shall include
Agent or any Lender and any corporation or bank controlling Agent or any Lender)
and the office or branch where Agent or any Lender (as so defined) makes or
maintains any Eurodollar Rate Loans with any request or directive (whether or
not having the force of law) from any central bank or other financial, monetary
or other authority, shall:

     (a)  subject Agent or any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with
respect to this Agreement or any Eurodollar Rate Loan or change the basis of
taxation of payments to Agent or any Lender of principal, fees, interest or any
other amount payable hereunder or under any Other Documents (except for changes
in the rate of tax on the overall net income of Agent or any Lender by the
jurisdiction in which it maintains its principal office);

                                      38
<PAGE>

     (b) change the currency of a country, impose, modify or hold applicable any
reserve, special deposit, assessment or similar requirement against assets held
by, or deposits in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit
extended by, any office of Agent or any Lender, including (without limitation)
pursuant to Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System; or

     (c) impose on Agent or any Lender or the London interbank Eurodollar market
any other condition with respect to this Agreement, any Other Documents or any
Eurodollar Rate Loan;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Agent or
Lender of making, renewing or maintaining its Advances hereunder by an amount
that Agent or such Lender deems to be material or to reduce the amount of any
payment (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) in respect of any of the
Advances by an amount that Agent or such Lender deems to be material, then, in
any case Borrowers shall promptly pay Agent or such Lender, upon its demand,
such additional amount as will compensate Agent or such Lender for such
additional cost or such reduction, as the case may be, provided that the
foregoing shall not apply to increased costs which are reflected in the
Alternate Base Rate or the Eurodollar Rate, as the case may be.  Agent or such
Lender shall certify the amount of such additional cost or reduced amount to
Borrowing Agent, and such certification shall be conclusive absent manifest
error.

     3.8. Basis For Determining Interest Rate Inadequate or Unfair.
          --------------------------------------------------------

     In the event that Agent or any Lender shall have determined that:

     (a) reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for
any Interest Period; or

     (b) Dollar deposits in the relevant amount and for the relevant maturity
are not available in the London interbank Eurodollar market, with respect to an
outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loan, a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan, or a proposed
conversion of a Domestic Rate Loan into a Eurodollar Rate Loan;

Agent shall give Borrowing Agent prompt written, telephonic or telegraphic
notice of such determination.  If such notice is given, (i) any such requested
Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be made as a Domestic Rate Loan, unless Borrowing
Agent shall notify Agent no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) two (2)
Business Days prior to the date of such proposed borrowing, that its request for
such borrowing shall be cancelled or made as an unaffected type of Eurodollar
Rate Loan, (ii) any Domestic Rate Loan or Eurodollar Rate Loan which was to have
been converted to an affected type of Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be continued as
or converted into a Domestic Rate Loan, or, if Borrowing Agent shall notify
Agent, no later than 10:00 a.m. New York City time) two (2) Business Days prior
to the proposed conversion, shall be maintained as an unaffected type of
Eurodollar Rate Loan, and (iii) any outstanding affected Eurodollar Rate Loans
shall be converted into a Domestic Rate Loan, or, if Borrowing Agent shall
notify Agent, no later than 10:00 a.m. New York City time) two (2) Business Days
prior to the last Business Day of the then current Interest Period applicable to
such affected Eurodollar Rate Loan, shall be

                                      39
<PAGE>

converted into an unaffected type of Eurodollar Rate Loan, on the last Business
Day of the then current Interest Period for such affected Eurodollar Rate Loans.
Until such notice has been withdrawn, the Lenders shall have no obligation to
make an affected type of Eurodollar Rate Loan or maintain outstanding affected
Eurodollar Rate Loans and no Borrower shall have the right to convert a Domestic
Rate Loan or an unaffected type of Eurodollar Rate Loan into an affected type of
Eurodollar Rate Loan.

     3.9. Capital Adequacy.
          ----------------

     (a)  In the event that Agent or any Lender shall have determined that any
applicable law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital adequacy, or any
change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by
any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the
interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by Agent or any Lender
(for purposes of this Section 3.9, the term "Lender" shall include Agent or any
Lender and any corporation or bank controlling Agent or any Lender) and the
office or branch where Agent or any Lender (as so defined) makes or maintains
any Eurodollar Rate Loans with any request or directive regarding capital
adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central
bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of
return on Agent or any Lender's capital as a consequence of its obligations
hereunder to a level below that which Agent or such Lender could have achieved
but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Agent's
and each Lender's policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed
by Agent or any Lender to be material, then, from time to time, Borrowers shall
pay upon demand to Agent or such Lender such additional amount or amounts as
will compensate Agent or such Lender for such reduction.  In determining such
amount or amounts, Agent or such Lender may use any reasonable averaging or
attribution methods.  The protection of this Section 3.9 shall be available to
Agent and each Lender regardless of any possible contention of invalidity or
inapplicability with respect to the applicable law, regulation or condition.

     (b)  A certificate of Agent or such Lender setting forth such amount or
amounts as shall be necessary to compensate Agent or such Lender with respect to
Section 3.9(a) hereof when delivered to Borrowers shall be conclusive absent
manifest error.

IV.  COLLATERAL; GENERAL TERMS.
     -------------------------

     For the purpose of this Article IV, references herein to the "Agent" shall
be deemed to mean "the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders".

     4.1. Acknowledgement and Grant of Security Interests.
          -----------------------------------------------

     (a)  Each Borrower hereby acknowledges, confirms and agrees that Agent for
the ratable benefit of Lenders has and shall continue to have a lien upon and
security interest in all Collateral heretofore granted to Agent pursuant to the
Existing Loan Agreement and the European Security Documents to secure the U.S.
Obligations, in the case of the U.S. Borrowers and the European Obligations, in
the case of the European Borrowers and, to the extent not otherwise granted
thereunder or under the Other Documents or otherwise granted to or held by

                                      40
<PAGE>

Agent.  Each Borrower hereby pledges and assigns to Agent for the ratable
benefit of Lenders and grants to Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders a
continuing security interest to secure the U.S. Obligations, in the case of the
U.S. Borrowers and the European Obligations, in the case of the European
Borrowers in all of such Borrower's Collateral, wherever located, whether in any
Borrower's possession or in the possession and control of a third party for any
Borrower's or Agent's or any Lender's account.  All of each Borrower's ledger
sheets, files, records, books of account, business papers and documents relating
to the Collateral shall, until delivered to or removed by Agent, be kept by such
Borrower in trust for Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders.

     (b)  The liens and security interests of Agent for the ratable benefit of
Lenders in the Collateral shall be deemed to be continuously perfected from the
earliest date of the granting of such liens and security interests, whether
hereunder, under the Other Documents, or under the Existing Loan Agreement.

     (c)  Anything else herein to the contrary notwithstanding the Lenders and
the Agent acknowledge that the U.S. Collateral is granted as security only for
the U.S. Obligations and the European Collateral is granted as security only for
the European Obligations.

     4.2. Perfection of Security Interest.
          -------------------------------

     Each Borrower shall take all action that may be necessary or desirable, or
that Agent may request, so as at all times to maintain the validity, perfection,
enforceability and priority of Agent's security interest for the ratable benefit
of the Lenders in the Collateral or to enable Agent to protect, exercise or
enforce its rights hereunder and in the Collateral, including, but not limited
to (i) immediately discharging all Liens other than Permitted Encumbrances, (ii)
obtaining landlords' or mortgagees' lien waivers, (iii) delivering to Agent,
endorsed or accompanied by such instruments of assignment as Agent may specify,

lockbox and other custodial arrangements satisfactory to Agent, and (v)
executing and delivering financing statements, instruments of pledge, mortgages,
notices and assignments, in each case in form and substance satisfactory to the
Required Lenders, relating to the creation, validity, perfection, maintenance or
continuation of Agent's security interest for the ratable benefit of the Lenders
under the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law.  Agent is hereby
authorized to file financing statements covering the Collateral signed by Agent
instead of Borrower in accordance with Section 9-402(2) of the Uniform
Commercial Code as adopted in the State of New York.  All charges, expenses and
fees Agent may incur in doing any of the foregoing, and any local taxes relating
thereto, shall be charged to Borrower's account as a Revolving Advance and added
to (i) the U.S. Obligations, with respect to charges, expenses and fees related
to the U.S. Borrowers, or (ii) the European Obligations with respect to charges,
expenses and fees related to the European Borrowers or, at the Agent's option,
shall be paid to Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders immediately upon
demand.

                                      41
<PAGE>

     4.3. Disposition of Collateral.
          -------------------------

     Each Borrower will safeguard and protect all Collateral granted by such
Borrower for Agent's general account and make no disposition thereof whether by
sale, lease or otherwise except the sale of Inventory in the ordinary course of
business.

     4.4  Preservation of Collateral.
          --------------------------

     Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default,
in addition to the rights and remedies set forth in Section 11.1 hereof, Agent:
(a) may at any time take such steps as Agent deems necessary to protect Agent's
and Lenders' interest in and to preserve the Collateral,\\ including the hiring
of such security guards or the placing of other security protection measures as
Agent may deem appropriate; (b) may employ and maintain at any Borrower's
premises a custodian who shall have full authority to do all acts necessary to
protect Agent's and Lenders' interests in the Collateral; (c) may lease
warehouse facilities to which Agent may move all or part of the Collateral; (d)
may use any Borrower's owned or leased lifts, hoists, trucks and other
facilities or equipment for handling or removing the Collateral; and (e) shall
have, and is hereby granted, a right of ingress and egress to the places where
the Collateral is located, and may proceed over and through any Borrower's owned
or leased property.  Each Borrower shall cooperate fully with all of Agent's
efforts to preserve the Collateral and will take such actions to preserve the
Collateral as Agent may direct.  All of Agent's expenses of preserving the
Collateral, including any expenses relating to the bonding of a custodian, shall
be charged (i) to the European Borrowers' accounts as a European Revolving
Advance, in the case of Collateral of a European Borrower and (ii) to the U.S.
Borrowers' accounts as a U.S. Revolving Advance in the case of Collateral of a
U.S. Borrower; each in such manner as Agent deems appropriate and added to the
U.S. Obligations, in the case of the U.S. Borrowers or the European Obligations,
in the case of the European Borrowers.

     4.5. Ownership of Collateral.
          -----------------------

     With respect to the Collateral, at the time the Collateral becomes subject
to Agent's security interest for its benefit and for the ratable benefit of the
Lenders:  (a) each Borrower shall be the sole owner of and fully authorized and
able to sell, transfer, pledge and/or grant a first security interest in each
and every item of the Collateral to Agent for its benefit and for the ratable
benefit of the Lenders; and, except for Permitted Encumbrances the Collateral
shall be free and clear of all Liens and encumbrances whatsoever; (b) each
document and agreement executed by each Borrower or delivered to Agent or any
Lender in connection with this Agreement shall be true and correct in all
respects; (c) all signatures and endorsements of each Borrower that appear on
such documents and agreements shall be genuine and each Borrower shall have full
capacity to execute same; and (d) each Borrower's Inventory shall be located as
set forth on Schedule 4.5 and shall not be removed from such location(s) without
             ------------
the prior written consent of Agent except with respect to the sale of Inventory
in the ordinary course of business.

                                      42
<PAGE>

     4.6. Defense of Agent's and Lender's Interests.
          -----------------------------------------

     Until (a) payment and performance in full of all of the U.S. Obligations,
in the case of the U.S. Borrowers or the European Obligations, in the case of
the European Borrowers and (b) termination of this Agreement, Agent's and
Lenders' interests in the Collateral shall continue in full force and effect.
During such period no Borrower shall, without Required Lenders' prior written
consent, pledge, sell (except Inventory in the ordinary course of business),
assign, transfer, create or suffer to exist a Lien upon or encumber or allow or
suffer to be encumbered in any way except for Permitted Encumbrances, any part
of such Borrower's Collateral.  Each Borrower shall defend Agent and Lenders'
interests in such Borrower's Collateral against any and all persons whatsoever.
At any time following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default and a demand by Agent for payment of all Obligations, Agent shall have
the right to take possession of the indicia of the Collateral and the Collateral
in whatever physical form contained, including without limitation: labels,
stationery, documents, instruments and advertising materials. If Agent exercises
this right to take possession of the Collateral, each Borrower shall, upon
demand, assemble the Collateral provided by it in the best manner possible and
make it available to Agent at a place reasonably convenient to Agent. In
addition, with respect to all Collateral, Agent and the Lenders shall be
entitled to all of the rights and remedies set forth herein and further provided
by the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law. Each Borrower shall, and
Agent may, at its option, instruct all suppliers, carriers, forwarders,
warehouses or others receiving or holding cash, checks, Inventory, documents or
instruments in which Agent holds a security interest for its benefit and for the
ratable benefit of the Lenders to deliver same to Agent and/or subject to
Agent's order and if they shall come into any Borrower's possession, they, and
each of them, shall be held by Borrower in trust as Agent's trustee, and such
Borrower, as the case may be, will immediately deliver them to Agent in their
original form together with any necessary endorsement.

     4.7. Books and Records.
          -----------------

     Each Borrower (a) shall keep proper books of record and account in which
full, true and correct entries will be made of all dealings or transactions of
or in relation to its business and affairs; (b) set up on its books accruals
with respect to all taxes, assessments, charges, levies and claims; and (c) on a
reasonably current basis set up on its books, from its earnings, allowances
against doubtful Receivables as the case may be, advances and investments and
all other proper accruals (including without limitation by reason of
enumeration, accruals for premiums, if any, due on required payments and
accruals for depreciation, obsolescence, or amortization of properties), which
should be set aside from such earnings in connection with its business.  All
determinations pursuant to this subsection shall be made in accordance with, or
as required by, GAAP consistently applied in the opinion of such independent
public accountant as shall then be regularly engaged by Borrowers.

     4.8. Financial Disclosure.
          --------------------

     Each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs all accountants and
auditors employed by Borrowers at any time during the Term to exhibit and
deliver to Agent and each Lender copies of any Borrower's financial statements,
trial balances or other accounting records

                                      43
<PAGE>

of any sort in the accountant's or auditor's possession, and to disclose to
Agent and each Lender any information such accountants may have concerning any
Borrower's financial status and business operations. Each Borrower hereby
authorizes all federal, state and municipal authorities to furnish to Agent and
each Lender copies of reports or examinations relating to Borrowers, whether
made by a Borrower or otherwise; however, Agent and each Lender will attempt to
obtain such information or materials directly from Borrowers, as the case may
be, prior to obtaining such information or materials from such accountants or
such authorities.

     4.9.  Compliance with Laws.
           --------------------

     Each Borrower shall comply in all material respects with all acts, rules,
regulations and orders of any legislative, administrative or judicial body or
official applicable to the Collateral or any part thereof or to the operation of
such Borrower's business the noncompliance with which could have a Material
Adverse Effect on such Borrower.  Each Borrower may, however, contest or dispute
any acts, rules, regulations, orders and directions of those bodies or officials
in any reasonable manner, provided that any related lien is inchoate or stayed
and sufficient reserves are established to the reasonable satisfaction of the
Lenders to protect Agent's Lien on or security interest in the Collateral.  The
Collateral at all times shall be maintained in accordance with the requirements
of all insurance carriers which provide insurance with respect to the Collateral
so that such insurance shall remain in full force and effect.

     4.10. Inspection of Premises.
           ----------------------

     At all reasonable times Agent and each Lender shall have full access to and
the right to audit, check, inspect and make abstracts and copies from any
Borrower's books, records, audits, correspondence and all other papers relating
to the Collateral and the operation of their respective businesses.  Agent, any
Lender and their agents may enter upon any Borrower's premises at any time
during business hours and at any other reasonable time, and from time to time
without prior notice, for the purpose of inspecting the Collateral and any and
all records pertaining thereto and the operation of their respective businesses.

     4.11. Insurance.
           ---------

     Each Borrower shall bear the full risk of any loss of any nature whatsoever
with respect to the Collateral.  At Borrowers' own cost and expense in amounts
and with carriers acceptable to Agent, each Borrower shall (a) keep all
insurable properties and properties in which it has an interest insured against
the hazards of fire, flood, sprinkler leakage, those hazards covered by extended
coverage insurance and such other hazards, and for such amounts, as is customary
in the case of companies engaged in similar businesses including, without
limitation, business interruption insurance; (b) maintain a bond in such amounts
as is customary in the case of companies engaged in similar businesses insuring
against larceny, embezzlement or other criminal misappropriation of insured's
officers and employees who may either singly or jointly with others at any time
have access to the assets or funds of Borrowers either directly or through
authority to draw upon such funds or to direct generally the disposition of such
assets; (c) maintain public and product liability insurance against claims for
personal injury, death or property damage suffered by others; (d) maintain all
such worker's compensation or similar

                                      44
<PAGE>

insurance as may be required under the laws of any state or jurisdiction in
which it is engaged in business; (e) furnish Agent with (i) copies of all
policies and evidence of the maintenance of such policies by the renewal thereof
at least thirty (30) days before any expiration date, and (ii) appropriate loss
payable endorsements in form and substance satisfactory to Agent, naming Agent
as a co-insured and loss payee as its interests may appear with respect to all
insurance coverage referred to in clauses (a) and (b) above, and providing (A)
that all proceeds thereunder in excess of $100,000 shall be payable to Agent for
the ratable benefit of the Lenders, (B) no such insurance shall be affected by
any act or neglect of the insured or owner of the property described in such
policy, and (C) that such policy and loss payable clauses may not be cancelled,
amended or terminated unless at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice is
given to Agent. In the event of any loss thereunder, the carriers named therein
hereby are directed by Agent or any Borrower to make payment for such loss in
excess of $100,000 to Agent and not to a Borrower and Agent jointly. If any
insurance losses are paid by check, draft or other instrument payable to a
Borrower and Agent jointly, Agent may endorse such Borrower's name thereon and
do such other things as Agent may deem advisable to reduce the same to cash.
Agent is hereby authorized to adjust and compromise claims under insurance
coverage referred to in clauses (a) and (b) above. All loss recoveries received
by Agent upon any such insurance related to U.S. Collateral may be applied to
the U.S. Obligations and all loss recoveries received by Agent upon any such
insurance related to the European Collateral may be applied to the European
Obligations, in such order as Agent in its sole discretion shall determine;
provided, upon any Borrower's request such proceeds shall be disbursed to such
--------
Borrower for the restoration of damaged property if such proceeds together with
other amounts provided by such Borrower are sufficient to fully restore such
property to its condition prior to the casualty loss. Any surplus shall be paid
by Agent to Borrowers or applied as may be otherwise required by law. Any
deficiency thereon shall be paid by Borrowers, to Agent, on demand.

     4.12.  Failure to Pay Insurance.
            ------------------------

     If any Borrower shall fail to obtain insurance as hereinabove provided, or
to keep the same in force, Agent, if Agent so elects, may obtain such insurance
and pay the premium therefor for such Borrower's account, and charge such
Borrower's account therefor and such expenses so paid shall be part of the U.S.
Obligations, in the case of a U.S. Borrower and the European Obligations, in the
case of a European Borrower, provided Agent shall promptly thereafter provide to
such Borrower documentation supporting such charges.

     4.13.  Payment of Taxes.
            ----------------

     Each Borrower will pay, when due, all taxes, assessments and other Charges
lawfully levied or assessed upon any Borrower or any of the Collateral
including, without limitation, real and personal property taxes, assessments and
charges and all franchise, income, employment, social security benefits,
withholding, and sales taxes.  If any tax by any governmental authority is or
may be imposed on or as a result of any transaction between any Borrower and
Agent or any Lender which Agent or any Lender may be required to withhold or pay
or if any taxes, assessments, or other Charges remain unpaid after the date
fixed for their payment, or if any claim shall be made which, in Agent's or
Lender's opinion, may possibly create a valid Lien on the Collateral, Agent may
without notice to such Borrower pay the taxes, assessments or other

                                      45
<PAGE>

Charges and Borrowers hereby indemnify and hold Agent and each Lender harmless
in respect thereof. The amount of any payment by Agent under this Section 4.13
shall be charged to the applicable Borrower's accounts as a Revolving Advance
and added to the U.S. Obligations in the case of a U.S. Borrower or the European
Obligations, in the case of a European Borrower and, until a Borrower shall
furnish Agent with an indemnity therefor (or supply Agent with evidence
satisfactory to Agent that due provision for the payment thereof has been made),
Agent may hold without interest any balance standing to any Borrower's credit
and Agent shall retain its security interest in any and all Collateral held by
Agent.

     4.14.  Payment of Leasehold Obligations.
            --------------------------------

     Each Borrower shall at all times pay, when and as due, its rental
obligations under all leases under which it is a tenant, and shall otherwise

XIV.  REGARDING AGENT.
      ---------------

      14.1.  Appointment.
             -----------

      Each Lender hereby designates Bank of America to act as Agent for such
Lender under this Agreement and the Other Documents.  Each Lender hereby
irrevocably authorizes Agent to take such action on its behalf under the
provisions of this Agreement and the Other Documents and to exercise such powers
and to perform such duties hereunder and thereunder as are specifically
delegated to or required of Agent by the terms hereof and thereof and such other
powers as are reasonably incidental thereto and Agent shall hold all Collateral,
payments of principal and interest, fees (except the fees set forth in Sections
3.3(a)(i), 3.3(c), 3.4(a) and 3.4(b) charges and collections (without giving
effect to any collection days) received pursuant to this Agreement, for the
ratable benefit of Lenders.  Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder by or
through its agents or employees.  As to any matters not expressly provided for
by this Agreement (including without limitation, collection of the Notes) Agent
shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall
be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so
acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Lenders,
and such instructions shall be binding; provided, however, that Agent shall
                                        --------- -------
not be required to take any action which exposes Agent to liability or which is
contrary to this Agreement or the Other Documents or applicable law unless Agent
is furnished with an indemnification reasonably satisfactory to Agent with
respect thereto.

      14.2.  Nature of Duties.
             ----------------

      Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set
forth in this Agreement and the Other Documents.  Neither Agent nor any of its
officers, directors, employees or agents shall be (i) liable for any action
taken or omitted by them as such hereunder or in connection herewith, unless
caused by their gross negligence (but not mere negligence) or willful
misconduct, (ii) liable for any action taken or omitted by the Prior Agent or
any of its officers, directors, employees or agents, or (iii) responsible in any
manner for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any
Borrower or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement, or in any of the
Other Documents or in any certificate, report, statement or other document
referred to or provided for in, or received by Agent under or in connection
with, this Agreement or any of the Other Documents or for the value, validity,
effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement, or
any of the Other Documents or for any failure of any Borrower to perform its
respective obligations hereunder.  Agent shall not be under any obligation to
any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or

                                      80
<PAGE>

performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this
Agreement or any of the Other Documents, or to inspect the properties, books or
records of any Borrower. The duties of Agent as respects the Advances to any
Borrower shall be mechanical and administrative in nature; Agent shall not have
by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender;
and nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be
so construed as to impose upon Agent any obligations in respect of this
Agreement except as expressly set forth herein.

      14.3.  Lack of Reliance on Agent and Resignation.
             -----------------------------------------

      Independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender, each
Lender has made and shall continue to make (i) its own independent investigation
of the financial condition and affairs of each Borrower in connection with the
making and the continuance of the Advances hereunder and the taking or not
taking of any action in connection herewith, and (ii) its own appraisal of the
creditworthiness of Borrowers.  Agent shall have no duty or responsibility,
either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit
or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession
before making of the Advances or at any time or times thereafter except as shall
be provided by Borrower pursuant to the terms hereof.  Agent shall not be
responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, information,
representations or warranties herein or in any agreement, document, certificate
or a statement delivered in connection with or for the execution, effectiveness,
genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectibility or sufficiency of this
Agreement or any Other Document, or of the financial condition of each Borrower,
or be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or
observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement, the
Notes, the Other Documents or the financial condition of each Borrower, or the
existence of any Event of Default or any Default.

     Agent may resign on sixty (60) days' written notice to each of Lenders and
Borrowers and upon such resignation, the Required Lenders will promptly
designate a successor Agent reasonably satisfactory to Borrowers.

     Any such successor Agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties
of Agent, and the term "Agent" shall mean such successor agent effective upon
its appointment, and the former Agent's rights, powers and duties as Agent shall
be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such
former Agent.  After any Agent's resignation as Agent, the provisions of this
Article XIV shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be
taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement.

     14.4.  Certain Rights of Agent.
            -----------------------

     If Agent shall request instructions from Lenders with respect to any act or
action (including failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any Other
Document, Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action
unless and until Agent shall have received instructions from the Required
Lenders; and Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so
refraining.  Without limiting the foregoing, Lenders shall not have any

                                      81
<PAGE>

right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of its acting or refraining
from acting hereunder in accordance with the instructions of the Required
Lenders.

     14.5.  Reliance.
            --------

     Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying,
upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, statement, certificate, telex,
teletype or telecopier message, cablegram, order or other document or telephone
message believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent
or made by the proper person or entity, and, with respect to all legal matters
pertaining to this Agreement and the Other Documents and its duties hereunder,
upon advice of counsel selected by it.  Agent may employ agents and attorneys-
in-fact and shall not be liable for the default or misconduct of any such agents
or attorneys-in-fact selected by Agent with reasonable care.

     14.6.  Notice of Default.
            -----------------

     Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of
any Default or Event of Default hereunder or under the Other Documents, unless
Agent has received notice from a Lender or any Borrower referring to this
Agreement or the Other Documents, describing such Default or Event of Default
and stating that such notice is a "notice of default".  In the event that Agent
receives such a notice, Agent shall give notice thereof to Lenders.  Agent shall
take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be
directed by the Required Lenders; provided, that, unless and until Agent shall
                                  --------  ----
have received such directions, Agent may but shall not be obligated to) take
such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or
Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of Lenders.

     14.7.  Indemnification.
            ---------------

     To the extent Agent is not reimbursed and indemnified by Borrowers, each
Lender will reimburse and indemnify Agent in proportion to its respective
portion of the Advances (or, if no Advances are outstanding, according to its
Commitment Percentage), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred
by or asserted against Agent in performing its duties hereunder, or in any way
relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any Other Document; provided
                                                                    --------
that, Lenders shall not be liable for any portion of such liabilities,
----
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements resulting from Agent's willful misconduct or gross
(not mere) negligence.

     14.8.  Agent in its Individual Capacity.
            --------------------------------

     With respect to the obligation of Agent to lend under this Agreement, the
Advances made by it shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other
Lender and as if it were not performing the duties as Agent specified herein;
and the term "Lender" or any similar term shall, unless the context clearly
otherwise indicates, include Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender.
Agent may engage in business with Borrowers as if it were not performing the
duties

                                      82
<PAGE>

specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from any Borrower
for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to
account for the same to Lenders.

     14.9.  Delivery of Documents.
            ---------------------

     To the extent Agent receives documents and information from any Borrower
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Agent will promptly furnish such
documents and information to Lenders.

     14.10.  Borrowers' Undertaking to Agent.
             -------------------------------

     Without prejudice to their respective obligations to the Lenders under the
other provisions of this Agreement, each Borrower hereby undertakes with Agent
to pay to Agent from time to time on demand all amounts from time to time due
and payable by it for the account of Agent or the Lenders or any of them
pursuant to this Agreement to the extent not already paid.  Any payment made
pursuant to any such demand shall pro tanto satisfy Borrowers' obligations to
                                  --- -----
make payments for the account of the Lenders or the relevant one or more of them
pursuant to this Agreement.


XV.  MISCELLANEOUS.
     -------------

     15.1.  Governing Law.
            -------------

     This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of New York applied to contracts to be performed wholly within

Borrower with respect to any of the Obligations, this Agreement or any related

                                      83
<PAGE>

     15.2  Entire Understanding.
           --------------------

           (a) This Agreement and the documents executed concurrently herewith
contain the entire understanding between Borrowers, Agent and each Lender and
supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, if any, relating to the
subject matter hereof.  Any promises, representations, warranties or guarantees
not herein contained and hereinafter made shall have no force and effect unless
in writing, signed by each Borrower's, Agent's and each Lender's respective
officers.  Neither this Agreement nor any portion or provisions hereof may be
changed, modified, amended, waived, supplemented, discharged, cancelled or
terminated orally or by any course of dealing, or in any manner other than by an
agreement in writing, signed by the party to be charged.  Each Borrower
acknowledges that it has been advised by counsel in connection with the
execution of this Agreement and Other Documents and is not relying upon oral
representations or statements inconsistent with the terms and provisions of this
Agreement.

           (b) The Required Lenders, Agent with the consent in writing of the
Required Lenders, and each Borrower may, subject to the provisions of this
Section 15.2(b), from time to time enter into written supplemental agreements to
this Agreement, the Notes or the Other Documents executed by Borrowers, for the
purpose of adding or deleting any provisions or otherwise changing, varying or
waiving in any manner the rights of the Lenders, Agent or any Borrower
thereunder or the conditions, provisions or terms thereof or waiving any Event
of Default thereunder, but only to the extent specified in such written
agreements; provided, however, that no such supplemental agreement shall (x)
            --------- -------
amend Sections 6.5, 6.6, 6.7, 6.8, 6.9, 6.10 or 7.6 without the consent of 67%
of the Lenders or (y) without the consent of all the Lenders:

               (i)    increase or decrease the Commitment Percentage of any
Lender or the Maximum Loan Amount or the Advance Rates.

               (ii)   extend the maturity of any Note or the due date for any
amount payable hereunder, or decrease the rate of interest or reduce any fee
payable by Borrowers to Agent or Lenders pursuant to this Agreement.

               (iii)  alter the definition of the term Required Lenders or
alter, amend or modify this Section 15.2(b).

               (iv)   release any Collateral during any calendar year having an
aggregate value in excess of $100,000.

               (v)    change the rights and duties of Agent.

Any such supplemental agreement shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and
shall be binding upon Borrowers, the Lenders and Agent and all future holders of
the Obligations.  In the case of any waiver, Borrowers, Agent and the Lenders
shall be restored to their former positions and rights, and any Event of Default
waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing, but no waiver of a
specific Event of Default shall extend to any subsequent Event of Default

                                      84
<PAGE>

(whether or not the subsequent Event of Default is the same as the Event of
Default which was waived), or impair any right consequent thereon.

     15.3  Successors and Assigns; Participations; New Lenders.
           ---------------------------------------------------

           (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
     Borrowers, Agent, each Lender, all future holders of the Notes and their
     respective successors and assigns, except that no Borrower may assign or
     transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the
     prior written consent of Agent and Lenders holding at least seventy-six
     percent (76%) of the Advances or if no Advances are outstanding, seventy-
     six percent (76%) of the Commitment Percentages.

           (b) Each Borrower acknowledges that in the regular course of
     commercial banking business one or more Lenders may at any time and from
     time to time sell participating interests in the Advances to other
     financial institutions (each such transferee or purchaser of a
     participating interest, a "Transferee").  Each Transferee may exercise
     all rights of payment (including without limitation rights of set-off) with
     respect to the portion of such Advances held by it or other Obligations
     payable hereunder as fully as if such Transferee were the direct holder
     thereof provided that Borrowers shall not be required to pay to any
     Transferee more than the amount which it would have been required to pay to
     the Lender which granted an interest in its Advances or other Obligations
     payable hereunder to such Transferee had such Lender retained such interest
     in the Advances hereunder or other Obligations payable hereunder and in no
     event shall Borrowers be required to pay any such amount arising from the
     same circumstances and with respect to the same Advances or other
     Obligations payable hereunder to both such Lender and such Transferee.
     Each Borrower hereby grants to any Transferee a continuing security
     interest in any deposits, moneys or other property actually or
     constructively held by such Transferee as security for the Transferee's
     interest in the Advances.

           (c) Any Lender may with the consent of Agent which shall not be
     unreasonably withheld or delayed sell, assign or transfer all or any part
     of its rights under this Agreement and the Other Documents to one or more
     additional banks or financial institutions and one or more additional banks
     or financial institutions may commit to make Advances hereunder (each a
     "Purchasing Lender"), pursuant to a Commitment Transfer Supplement,
     executed by a Purchasing Lender, the transferor Lender, and Agent and
     delivered to Agent for recording provided no Purchasing Lender shall be
     sold an aggregate commitment of less than $5,000,000.  Upon such execution,
     delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the transfer effective
     date determined pursuant to such Commitment Transfer Supplement, (i)
     Purchasing Lender thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent
     provided in such Commitment Transfer Supplement, have the rights and
     obligations of a Lender thereunder with a Commitment Percentage as set
     forth therein, and (ii) the transferor Lender thereunder shall, to the
     extent provided in such Commitment Transfer Supplement, be released from
     its obligations under this Agreement, the Commitment Transfer Supplement
     creating a novation for that purpose.  Such Commitment Transfer Supplement
     shall be deemed to amend this Agreement to the

                                      85
<PAGE>

     extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such
     Purchasing Lender and the resulting adjustment of the Commitment
     Percentages arising from the purchase by such Purchasing Lender of all or a
     portion of the rights and obligations of such transferor Lender under this
     Agreement and the Other Documents. Each Borrower hereby consent to the
     addition of such Purchasing Lender and the resulting adjustment of the
     Commitment Percentages arising from the purchase by such Purchasing Lender
     of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such transferor Lender
     under this Agreement and the Other Documents. Each Borrower shall execute
     and deliver such further documents and do such further acts and things in
     order to effectuate the foregoing.

          (d) Agent shall maintain at its address a copy of each Commitment
     Transfer Supplement delivered to it and a register (the "Register") for the
     recordation of the names and addresses of the Advances owing to each Lender
     from time to time.  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the
     absence of manifest error, and each Borrower, Agent and Lenders may treat
     each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the
     Advance recorded therein for the purposes of this Agreement.  The Register
     shall be available for inspection by Borrowers, or any Lender at any
     reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.  Agent
     shall receive a fee in the amount of $2500 payable by the applicable
     Purchasing Lender upon the effective date of each transfer or assignment to
     such Purchasing Lender.

          (e) Each Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Transferee
     or Purchasing Lender and any prospective Transferee or Purchasing Lender
     any and all financial information in such Lender's possession concerning
     Borrowers which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of any
     Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with such Lender's
     credit evaluation of Borrowers.

     15.4.  Application of Payments.
            -----------------------

     Agent shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and
re-apply any payment and any and all proceeds of Collateral to any portion of
the Obligations.  To the extent that any Borrower makes a payment or Agent or
any Lender receives any payment or proceeds of the Collateral for any Borrower's
benefit, which are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or
preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, debtor in
possession, receiver, custodian or any other party under any bankruptcy law,
common law or equitable cause, then, to such extent, the Obligations or part
thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue as if such
payment or proceeds had not been received by Agent or such Lender.

     15.5.  Indemnity.
            ---------

     Each Borrower shall indemnify Agent and each Lender and their officers,
employees and agents from and against any and all liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation,
fees and disbursements of counsel) which may be imposed on, incurred by, or
asserted against Agent or any Lender in any litigation, proceeding or
investigation instituted or

                                      86
<PAGE>

conducted by any governmental agency or instrumentality or any other Person with
respect to any aspect of, or any transaction contemplated by, or referred to in,
or any matter related to, this Agreement, whether or not Agent or any Lender is
a party thereto, except to the extent that any of the foregoing arises out of
the willful misconduct or gross (not mere) negligence of the party being
indemnified.

     15.6.  Notice.
            ------

     Any notice or request hereunder may be given to any Borrower or to Agent or

            --------

     The obligations of Borrowers under Sections 2.2(f), 3.7, 3.8, 3.9, 14.7 and
15.5 shall survive termination of this Agreement and the Other Documents and
payment in full of the Obligations.

     15.8.  Severability.
            ------------

     If any part of this Agreement is contrary to, prohibited by, or deemed
invalid under applicable laws or regulations, such provision shall be

invalid, but the remainder hereof shall not be invalidated thereby and shall be
given effect so far as possible.

     15.9.  Expenses.
            --------

     Borrowers shall pay all costs and expenses including, without limitation,

entering into, modification, amendment, administration and enforcement of this
Agreement or any consents or waivers hereunder and all related agreements
documents and instruments, or (c) in instituting, maintaining, preserving,

     15.10.  Injunctive Relief.
             -----------------

     Each Borrower recognizes that, in the event any Borrower fails to perform,
observe or discharge any of its obligations or liabilities under this Agreement,
any remedy at law may prove to be inadequate relief to Agent and the Lenders;
therefore, Agent and each Lender, if Agent or such Lender so requests, shall be
entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such case without
the necessity of proving that actual damages are not an adequate remedy.

     15.11.  Consequential Damages.
             ---------------------

     Neither Agent nor Lenders nor any agent or attorney for any of them shall
be liable to any Borrower for consequential damages arising from any breach of

collection of the Obligations.

     15.12.  Captions.
             --------

convenience only and do not constitute and shall not be interpreted as part of
this Agreement.

     15.13.  Counterparts:  Telecopied Signatures.
             ------------------------------------

     This Agreement may be executed in any number of and by different parties
hereto on separate counterparts, all of which, when so executed, shall be deemed
an original, but all such counterparts shall constitute one and the same
agreement.  Any signature delivered by a party by facsimile transmission shall
be deemed to be an original signature hereto.

     15.14.  Construction.
             ------------

     The parties acknowledge that each party and its counsel have reviewed this
Agreement and that the normal rule of construction to the effect that any
ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed
in the interpretation of this Agreement or any amendments, schedules or exhibits
thereto.

     15.15.  Currency Indemnity.
             ------------------

     Except as set forth in Section 2.7,

             (a) If: (i) any amount payable by a Borrower hereunder or in
     connection herewith is received by the Agent or any Lender in a currency
     (the "Payment Currency") other than that agreed to be payable hereunder
     (the "Agreed Currency"), whether as a result of any judgment or order or
     the enforcement thereof, the liquidation of such Borrower or otherwise
     howsoever; and (ii) the amount produced by converting the Payment Currency
     so received into the Agreed Currency is less than the relevant amount of
     the Agreed Currency; then such Borrower shall indemnify each of the Agent
     and the Lenders for the deficiency and any loss sustained as a result.
     Such conversion shall be made at such prevailing rate of exchange, on such
     date and in such market as is

                                      89
<PAGE>

     determined by the Agent, or the relevant Lender as being most appropriate
     for such conversion. Such Borrower shall in addition pay the costs of such
     conversion.

            (b) The above indemnity shall constitute separate and independent
     obligations of each Borrower from its other obligations hereunder and shall
     apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by the Agent or any Lender.


XVI. BORROWING AGENCY
     ----------------

     16.1.  Borrowing Agency Provisions.
            ---------------------------

            (a) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably designates Borrowing Agent to
     be its attorney and agent and in such capacity to borrow, sign and endorse
     notes, and execute and deliver all instruments, documents, writings and
     further assurances now or hereafter required hereunder, on behalf of such
     Borrower or Borrowers, and hereby authorizes Agent to pay over or credit
     all loan proceeds hereunder in accordance with the request of Borrowing
     Agent.

            (b) The handling of this credit facility as a co-borrowing facility
     with a borrowing agent in the manner set forth in this Agreement is solely
     as an accommodation to Borrowers and at their request.  Neither Agent nor
     any Lender shall incur liability to Borrowers as a result thereof.  To
     induce Agent and Lenders to do so and in consideration thereof, each
     Borrower hereby indemnifies Agent and each Lender and holds Agent and each
     Lender harmless from and against any and all liabilities, expenses, losses,
     damages and claims of damage or injury asserted against Agent or any Lender
     by any Person arising from or incurred by reason of the handling of the
     financing arrangements of Borrowers as provided herein, reliance by Agent
     or any Lender on any request or instruction from Borrowing Agent or any
     other action taken by Agent or any Lender with respect to this Section 15.1
     except due to willful misconduct or gross (not mere) negligence by the
     indemnified party.

            (c) All U.S. Obligations shall be joint and several obligations of
     the U.S. Borrowers, and each U.S. Borrower shall make payment upon the
     maturity of the U.S. Obligations by acceleration or otherwise, and such
     obligation and liability on the part of each U.S. Borrower shall in no way
     be affected by any extensions, renewals and forbearance granted by Agent
     or any Lender to any other U.S. Borrower, failure of Agent or any Lender to
     give any U.S. Borrower notice of borrowing or any other notice, any failure
     of Agent or any Lender to pursue or preserve its rights against any U.S.
     Borrower, the release by Agent or any Lender of any Collateral now or
     thereafter acquired from any U.S. Borrower, and such agreement by each U.S.
     Borrower to pay upon any notice issued pursuant thereto is unconditional
     and unaffected by prior recourse by Agent or any Lender to the other U.S.
     Borrowers or any Collateral for such U.S. Borrower's Obligations or the
     lack thereof.

                                      90
<PAGE>

            (d) All European Obligations shall be joint and several as among the
       European Borrowers, and each European Borrower shall make payment upon
       the maturity of the European Obligations by acceleration or otherwise,
       and such obligation and liability on the part of each European Borrower
       shall in no way be affected by any extensions, renewals and forbearance
       granted by Agent or any Lender to any other European Borrower, failure of
       Agent or any Lender to give any European Borrower notice of borrowing or
       any other notice, any failure of Agent or any Lender to pursue or
       preserve its rights against any European Borrower, the release by Agent
       or any Lender of any Collateral now or thereafter acquired from any
       European Borrower, and such agreement by each European Borrower to pay
       upon any notice issued pursuant thereto is unconditional and unaffected
       by prior recourse by Agent or any Lender to the other European Borrowers
       or any Collateral for such European Borrower's European Obligations or
       the lack thereof.

       16.2.  Waiver of Subrogation.
              ---------------------

       Each Borrower expressly waives any and all rights of subrogation,
reimbursement, indemnity, exoneration, contribution of any other claim which
such Borrower may now or hereafter have against the other Borrowers or other
Person directly or contingently liable for the Obligations hereunder, or against
or with respect to the other Borrowers' property (including, without limitation,
any property which is Collateral for the Obligations), arising from the
existence or performance of this Agreement, until termination of this Agreement
and repayment in full of the Obligations.

<PAGE>

     in endeavoring to collect all or any part of the European Obligations from,
     or in prosecuting any action against, such European Borrower or any other
     guarantor of all or any part of the European Obligations. No guarantee,
     indemnity, joint or other obligation, as referred to in this Section
     17.1(b), provided by ThermiSol Denmark shall be made or construed or
     enforced as serving (directly or indirectly) as security for any
     indebtedness to the Lenders with respect to any obligation of a direct or
     indirect shareholder of ThermiSol Denmark.

            (c) Guaranty by U.S. Borrowers of the European Obligations.  Each
                ------------------------------------------------------
     U.S. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that such U.S. Borrower is
     jointly and severally liable for, and hereby absolutely and unconditionally

     attorneys' and paralegals' fees and expenses paid or incurred by the
     Lenders in endeavoring to collect all or any part of the European
     Obligations from, or in prosecuting any action against such U.S. Borrower
     or any other guarantor of all or any part of the European Obligations.

     17.2.  Contribution with Respect to Guaranty Obligations.
            -------------------------------------------------

            (a) To the extent that any Borrower shall make a payment under this
     Section 17 of all or any of the Obligations for which such Borrower is not
     primarily liable (a "Guarantor Payment") which, taking into account all
     other Guarantor Payments then previously or concurrently made by the other
     Borrower, exceeds the amount which such Borrower would otherwise have paid
     if each Borrower had paid the aggregate Obligations satisfied by such
     Guarantor Payment in the same proportion that such Borrower's "Allocable
     Amount" (as defined below) (in effect immediately prior to such Guarantor
     Payment) bore to the aggregate Allocable Amounts of all of the Borrowers in
     effect immediately prior to the making of such Guarantor Payment, then such
                                                                       ----
     Borrower shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification
     payments from, and be reimbursed by, the other Borrower for the amount of
     such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in
                  --- ----
     effect immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment.

            (b) As of any date of determination, the "Allocable Amount" of any
                                                      --------- ------
     Borrower shall be equal to the maximum amount of the claim which could then
     be recovered from such Borrower under this Section 17 without rendering
     such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of chapter 11 of the
     Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer
     Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law.

            (c) This subsection 17.2 is intended only to define the relative
     rights of the Borrowers and nothing set forth in this subsection 17.2 is
     intended to or shall impair the obligations of the Borrowers, jointly and
     severally, to pay any amounts as and when the same shall become due and
     payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and

                                      92
<PAGE>

     nothing contained in this subsection 17.2 shall limit the liability of any
     Borrower to pay the Obligations for which it is primarily liable.

            (d) The parties hereto acknowledge that the rights of contribution
     and indemnification hereunder shall constitute assets of any Borrower to
     which such contribution and indemnification is owing.

     17.3.  Obligations Absolute.
            --------------------

     The liability of each Borrower to Agent and Lenders hereunder shall not be
affected or impaired by any of the following:  (a) the validity or
enforceability of the Obligations or any part thereof, or of the Note or other
instrument or document evidencing all or any part of the Obligations, (b) the
absence of any attempt to collect the Obligations from a Borrower or any other
guarantor or other action to enforce the same, (c) any acceptance of collateral
security, guarantors, accommodation parties or sureties for any or all
Obligations; (d) one or more extensions or renewals of Obligations (whether or
not for longer than the original period) or any modification of the interest
rates, fees, maturities or principal amount of, or other contractual terms
applicable to any Obligations; (e) any waiver or indulgence granted to a
Borrower, any delay or lack of diligence in the enforcement of Obligations, or
any failure to institute proceedings, file a claim, give any required notices or
otherwise protect any Obligations; (f) any full or partial release of;
compromise or settlement with, or agreement not to sue a Borrower or any
guarantor or other person liable in respect of any Obligations; (g) any release,
surrender, cancellation or other discharge of any evidence of any of the

sufficient creation and perfection thereof; or to establish the priority
thereof; or to preserve, protect, insure care for, exercise or enforce any
collateral security; (i) any collection, sale, lease or disposition of; or any

debtor in possession under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code and (m) the
disallowance under the Bankruptcy Code of all or any portion of Agent's or such
Lender's claim for repayment of the Obligations.  Each Borrower hereby waives
any and all legal and equitable defenses and discharges available to a surety
guarantor, or accommodation co-obligor.

     Each Borrower hereby assumes responsibility for keeping itself informed of
the financial condition of the other Borrower, and any and all endorsers and
other guarantors of any agreement, instrument or document evidencing or security
all or any part of the Obligations and of all other circumstances bearing upon
the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations or any part thereof that diligent
inquiry would reveal, and each Borrower hereby agrees that neither Agent nor any
Lender shall have any duty to advise such Borrower of information regarding such
condition or any such circumstances.  Each Borrower hereby acknowledges
familiarity with the other Borrower's financial condition and has not relied on
any statements by Agent or Lenders in

                                      93
<PAGE>

obtaining such information. In the event Agent or any Lender, in its sole
discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any such
information to a Borrower, it shall not be under any obligation (i) to undertake
any investigation with respect thereto, (ii) to disclose any information which,
pursuant to accepted or reasonable credit practices, Agent wishes to maintain
confidential or (iii) to make any other or future disclosures of such
information, or any other information, to such Borrower.

     17.4.  Waiver.
            ------

     UPON THE OCCURRENCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT, AGENT OR ANY LENDER MAY, AT ITS
SOLE ELECTION, PROCEED DIRECTLY WITHOUT NOTICE, AGAINST A BORROWER TO COLLECT

OBLIGATIONS.

     EACH BORROWER ALSO WAIVES ALL SETOFFS AND COUNTERCLAIMS AND ALL
PRESENTMENTS, DEMANDS FOR PERFORMANCE, NOTICES OF NONPERFORMANCE, PROTESTS,
NOTICES OF PROTEST, NOTICES OF DISHONOR, AND NOTICES OF ACCEPTANCE OF THIS
GUARANTY.  EACH BORROWER FURTHER WAIVES ALL NOTICES OF THE EXISTENCE, CREATION
OR INCURRING OF NEW OR ADDITIONAL INDEBTEDNESS, ARISING EITHER FROM ADDITIONAL
LOANS EXTENDED TO THE OTHER BORROWERS OR OTHERWISE, AND EXCEPT FOR NOTICES
EXPRESSLY REQUIRED HEREUNDER, ALSO WAIVES ALL NOTICES THAT THE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT,
OR ANY PORTION THEREOF, OR ANY INTEREST ON ANY AGREEMENT, INSTRUMENT OR DOCUMENT
EVIDENCING OR SECURING ALL OR ANY PART OF THE OBLIGATIONS IS DUE, NOTICES OF ANY
AND ALL PROCEEDINGS TO COLLECT FROM THE MAKER, ANY ENDORSER OR ANY OTHER
GUARANTOR OF ALL OR ANY PART OF THE OBLIGATIONS, OR FROM ANY OTHER PERSON, AND
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NOTICES OF EXCHANGE, SALE, SURRENDER OR OTHER
HANDLING OF ANY COLLATERAL GIVEN TO AGENT AND LENDERS TO SECURE PAYMENT OF THE
OBLIGATIONS.

     17.5.  Recovery.
            --------

     Each Borrower agrees that, to the extent that the other Borrower makes a
payment or payments to Agent or any Lender, or receives any proceeds of
Collateral, which payment or payments or any part thereof are subsequently
invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to
be repaid to such other Borrower, its estate, trustee, receiver or any other
party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable
cause, then to the extent of such payment or repayment, the Obligations or the
part thereof which has been paid, reduced or satisfied by such amount shall be
reinstated and continued in full force and effect as of the date such initial
payment, reduction or satisfaction occurred, and this cross guaranty shall
continue to be in existence and full force and effect, irrespective of whether
any evidence of the Obligations has been surrendered or canceled.

     17.6.  Liability Cumulative.
            --------------------

     The liability of the Borrowers under this Section 17 is in addition to and
shall be cumulative with all liabilities of each Borrower to Agent and Lenders
under this Agreement and the Other Documents to which such Borrower is a party
or in respect of any Obligations or obligation of the other Borrowers, without
any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or
creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.
