                                    RECITALS
                                    --------

A.       On February 15, 2001 (the "Petition Date"), the United States
         Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Missouri (the "Bankruptcy
         Court") entered orders for relief in each of the bankruptcy cases filed
         by the Debtors, all of which are now being jointly administered under
         Case No. 01-41598-293 (collectively, the "Chapter 11 Cases"), pursuant
         to the provisions of Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code
         (the "Code"). The Debtors are "debtors-in-possession" as defined in
         Code section 1101(1). As of the date hereof, the Debtors remain in
         possession of their assets and continue to manage their affairs
         pursuant to Code sections 1107 and 1108.

B.       Prior to the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors entered
         into that certain Amended and Restated Credit and Guaranty Agreement
         dated as of July 7, 1998 (as amended through the date hereof, the
         "Prepetition Credit Facility"), among each of the Debtors, either as
         borrowers or guarantors, and certain lenders (collectively in such
         capacity, the "Prepetition Lenders").

C.       Pursuant to the terms of that certain Debtor-in-Possession Credit
         Agreement dated February 16, 2001 (as amended through the date hereof,
         the "DIP Credit Agreement") and the Final Order Approving Postpetition
         Financing Pursuant to 11 U.S.C.ss.364(c) and (d), Granting
         Superpriority Liens and Administrative Claims, Authorizing Use of Cash
         Collateral and Modifying the Automatic Stay (the "Final DIP Order"),
         certain lenders (collectively in such capacity, the "DIP Lenders")
         agreed to provide the Debtors with certain post-petition financing up
         to $30,000,000, subject to the terms and provisions thereof (the "DIP
         Credit Facility"). The DIP Lenders and the Prepetition Lenders are
         hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Lenders."

D.       Pursuant to the DIP Credit Facility, the Debtors' maximum liability to
         the DIP Lenders is $30,000,000, plus interest, fees and other amounts
         payable thereunder (collectively, the "DIP Facility Obligation").

E.       Pursuant to the Prepetition Credit Facility, as of the Petition Date,
         the Debtors owed the Prepetition Lenders approximately $712,000,000,
         together with all interest payable thereon through the commencement of
         the Chapter 11 Cases, plus all fees and other amounts payable
         thereunder (all obligations owed pursuant to the Prepetition Credit
         Facility, the "Prepetition Credit Facility Obligations").

F.       The DIP Facility Obligation and the Prepetition Credit Facility
         Obligations are secured by security interests and liens granted by the
         Debtors to the DIP Lenders and Prepetition Lenders, respectively, on a
         substantial portion of their assets, excluding, however, all equipment
         leased by the Lessor Group to Bridge Information Systems America, Inc.
         ("BIA") and sublet to various Debtors and to SAVVIS, as set forth in
         the Master Lease Documents (defined below).

G.       Prior to the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, BIA entered into
         that certain Master Lease Agreement dated as of March 18, 1999, as
         amended, with GECC, on behalf of itself and the other members of the
         Lessor Group (which Master Lease Agreement, together with the schedules
         related thereto and certain
<PAGE>


         guaranties given by certain of the Debtors in connection therewith, as
         the same may have been amended, supplemented or otherwise modified
         prior to the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases are hereinafter
         collectively called the "Master Lease Documents").

H.       The Debtors' obligations under the Master Lease Documents are secured
         by duly perfected, first priority security interests in and liens on
         all equipment financed thereby (the "Lessor Group's Equipment") and by
         an assignment of all of BIA's rights, title and interests in and to
         that certain Sublease Agreement dated February 18, 2000 (the "SAVVIS
         Sublease") between BIA and SAVVIS, including, without limitation, the
         right to receive and collect all rent and other sums payable by SAVVIS
         to BIA thereunder (the "SAVVIS Sublease Payments", which together with
         the SAVVIS Sublease and the equipment sublet to SAVVIS (the "SAVVIS
         Subleased Equipment") are hereinafter collectively called the "Master
         Lease Collateral").

I.       Pursuant to the Master Lease Documents, as of the Petition Date,
         certain of the Debtors owed the Lessor Group approximately
         $42,389,185.34 in remaining rents and other lease obligations, together
         with all interest payable thereon, late charges, unpaid but earned fees
         and other expenses due in connection therewith (all obligations owed
         pursuant to the Master Lease Documents, the "Master Lease
         Obligations").

J.       Since the filing of these Chapter 11 Cases, SAVVIS has made certain of
         the SAVVIS Sublease Payments to the Debtors (which are in the aggregate
         amount of $3,831,418 (the "Initial Deposit") and are being held by the
         Debtors in a segregated account); provided, however, that SAVVIS has
         failed to remit all of the payments due. The required amount of the
         SAVVIS Sublease Payments and the amount paid by SAVVIS (the difference
         defined as the "Escrow Shortfall Amount") are calculated as follows:

                  Payment Due Date                                    Amount

                       03/l/01                                    $    600,491

                       05/l/01                                    $    597,167
                       06/l/01                                    $    594,038
                       07/l/01                                    $    594,443

                       09/1/01                                    $    591,699
                       10/1/01                                    $    593,332
                       11/l/01                                    $    591,317
                       12/1/01                                    $    593,034
                       01/1/02                                    $    590,762
                                                                  ------------


                       Total                                      $  6,530,941

                                                                  ============
                       Escrow Shortfall Amount                    $  2,699,523

         Additionally, the Lessor Group previously understood that the aggregate
         amount of all scheduled rental payments due by SAVVIS to the Debtors
         over the term of the SAVVIS Sublease exceeded the amounts listed above
         plus those set forth on Exhibit C by $864,000 (the "Sublease Shortfall
         Amount"), which SAVVIS disputes.

K.       In September 2001, the Debtors sold a substantial portion of their
         assets (the "Reuters Acquired Assets") to Reuters America Inc. and
         Reuter S.A. (collectively, "Reuters") pursuant to that certain Asset
         Purchase Agreement (the "Reuters APA"), free and clear of all liens,
         claims or encumbrances. The transaction contemplated by the Reuters APA
         is hereinafter referred to as the "Reuters Sale" and the net proceeds
         received from the transfer of the Reuters Acquired Assets to Reuters
         are hereinafter referred to as the "Reuters Sale Proceeds."

L.       Excluded from the Reuters Sale is BIA's interest in and to the SAVVIS
         Sublease, the SAVVIS Sublease Payments, and all rights granted pursuant
         thereto and in the SAVVIS Subleased Equipment.

M.       At the auction held by the Debtors leading up to the Reuters Sale, GECC
         and the other members of the Lessor Group (other than Highland),
         submitted written credit bids for their collateral of $36,976,539,
         which the Lessor Group asserts was pursuant to and in accordance with
         the provisions of Code sections 363(f) and 363(k).

N.       Prior to the hearing held on May 3, 2001 to approve the Reuters Sale
         (the "Hearing"), the Lessor Group, among others, filed various
         objections to said sale, all as more particularly set forth in the
         pleadings filed therein.

O.       The Debtors, Lenders and the Lessor Group have certain disputes among
         them related to the Reuters Sale, including, among other things, the
         ability of the Debtors to enter into the Reuters Sale without the
         Lessor Group's consent, the value of the Master Lease Collateral, the
         appropriate allocation of the Reuters Sale Proceeds, and the effect of
         certain credit bids made by certain members of the Lessor Group
         pursuant to 11 U.S.C. 363(k) (collectively, the "Disputes"). Due to the
         complexities of the various issues presented in the Disputes, and in
         order to avoid the inherent uncertainty and expense involved in
         litigating said Disputes, the Debtors, the Lenders, the Lessor Group
         and SAVVIS believe that it is in their respective best interests to
         compromise and settle all of the controversies which now exist among
         them including the Disputes, upon the terms and conditions contained
         herein.

                                    AGREEMENT
                                    ---------

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the matters set forth above, the
facts and circumstances out of which this Agreement arises and for other good
and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby
acknowledged, the parties do hereby covenant, stipulate, acknowledge and agree
as follows:

1.       Payments to GECC on Behalf of the Lessor Group. On the Effective Date,
         GECC, on behalf of the Lessor Group, shall receive from the Debtors
         payment in the amount of $13,500,000 from the Reuters Sale Proceeds
         and, in addition, the sum of $1,000,000.

2.       SAVVIS Equipment. Effective as of the Effective Date, the Debtors shall
         abandon and assign (without any recourse to the Debtors) to GECC, on
         behalf of the Lessor Group, all of their rights, titles and interests
         in and to the SAVVIS Sublease, the SAVVIS Subleased Equipment, the
         SAVVIS Sublease Payments and all other payments due and to become due
         from time to time thereunder, including, without limitation, all funds
         then held in the Escrow Account (defined below), all free and clear of
         all liens, security interests and other encumbrances. In furtherance of
         such abandonment, the Debtors shall deliver to GECC, on behalf of the
         Lessor Group, a bill of sale (substantially in the form attached hereto
         as Exhibit A) (the "Bill of Sale"), conveying and transferring to GECC,
         on behalf of the Lessor Group, its interest in the SAVVIS Subleased
         Equipment and all rights incident thereto.

3.       Bridge/Lessor Group Escrow Account.

         a.       Escrow Agreement. Contemporaneous with the final execution
                  hereof by the Debtors, SAVVIS and GECC, on behalf of the
                  Lessor Group (the "Execution Date"), such parties, together
                  with ___________________________________ as escrow agent (the
                  "Escrow Agent"), shall enter into an escrow agreement
                  substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the
                  "Escrow Agreement").

         b.       Debtors' Deposits. Within two (2) business days after the
                  Execution Date (the "Deposit Date"), the Debtors shall deposit
                  the Initial Deposit into the account created pursuant to the
                  Escrow Agreement (the "Escrow Account") together with any
                  additional SAVVIS Sublease Payments falling due before the
                  Deposit Date (as set forth on the schedule attached hereto as
                  Exhibit C, the "Payment Schedule") that the Debtors may have
                  received from SAVVIS. On the Effective Date and subject to its
                  occurrence, the Debtors shall deposit in the Escrow Account
                  the sum of


                                     - 3 -
<PAGE>


                  $2,100,082 (the "Additional Deposit") (comprising $1,799,682
                  of the Escrow Shortfall Amount and $300,400 of the Sublease
                  Shortfall Amount) or, alternatively, shall pay such sum to
                  GECC, on behalf of the Lessor Group, if directed to do so by
                  GECC in writing. SAVVIS will reimburse Bridge in the amount of
                  $899,841 upon the earlier to occur of (i) twelve (12) months
                  from the date on which Debtors deposit $1,799,682 of the
                  Escrow Shortfall Amount in the Escrow Account or pay such
                  amount directly to GECC (as applicable), (ii) the closing by
                  SAVVIS of its new financing, which currently includes Welsh
                  Carson, but which may include other or different parties, or
                  (iii) any asset sale by SAVVIS in excess of $5,000,000,
                  including the same or capital lease of the Hazelwood facility.

         c.       SAVVIS Deposits. On or before the Deposit Date, SAVVIS shall
                  deposit the sum of $899,841 into the Escrow Account and
                  thereafter will deposit in the Escrow Account all future
                  SAVVIS Sublease Payments on the due date thereof to the extent
                  that they are due prior to the Effective Date.

         d.       SAVVIS Covenants/Remedies. In addition to the foregoing,
                  SAVVIS hereby covenants and agrees that prior to the Effective
                  Date, it shall pay to the Escrow Agent, for deposit into the
                  Escrow Account, (i) all rent on the dates and in the amounts
                  set forth in the Payment Schedule and (ii) all other sums due
                  and to become due under the SAVVIS Sublease as set forth
                  therein. On and after the Effective Date, SAVVIS shall pay to
                  GECC, on behalf of the Lessor Group, all rent as and when due
                  and payable under the New Lease (as hereinafter defined), to
                  the extent such payments were not previously paid by SAVVIS
                  into the Escrow Account prior to the Effective Date, together
                  with all sums that become due and payable thereunder. Prior to
                  the Effective Date, the Debtors shall use commercially
                  reasonable efforts, including, to the extent permitted by law,
                  initiating legal action to compel SAVVIS to timely make all
                  payments due and to become due under the SAVVIS Sublease,
                  including the rent due pursuant to the Payment Schedule;
                  provided, however, that (i) except with respect to the Initial
                  Deposit and the Additional Deposit, the Debtors shall have no
                  liability to make any payments due or to become due under the
                  SAVVIS Sublease or the New Lease, (ii) the Lessor Group's only
                  recourse for failure by SAVVIS to make any payment as and when
                  due by SAVVIS under the New Lease shall be against SAVVIS
                  alone and (iii) failure by SAVVIS to make any payment that
                  becomes due under the New Lease shall in no way affect the
                  enforceability and/or validity of the other terms and
                  conditions of this Agreement. All funds deposited in the
                  Escrow Account shall be held for the benefit of GECC, on
                  behalf of the Lessor Group, shall constitute "cash collateral"
                  over which GECC, on behalf of the Lessor Group, shall continue
                  to hold a duly-perfected first priority lien, and shall not be
                  distributed except in accordance with this Agreement or by
                  further order of the Bankruptcy Court.

4.       Distribution of Escrow Funds. On the Effective Date, the Debtors and
         GECC shall instruct the Escrow Agent to immediately disburse all funds
         then on deposit in the Escrow Account (the "Escrow Funds") to GECC, for
         the benefit of the Lessor Group. Such disbursement shall be free and
         clear of any liens, claims, interests and encumbrances, including that
         of the DIP Lenders, if any, and the parties hereto shall take such
         actions and execute such documentation as is reasonably necessary to
         effectuate such disbursement and carry out the intent hereof.

5.       New SAVVIS Lease. Upon the Effective Date, GECC, on behalf of the
         Lessor Group and as assignee of all of the Debtors' rights, title and
         interests as lessor in, to and under the SAVVIS Sublease, and SAVVIS
         shall amend and restate in its entirety the terms of the SAVVIS
         Sublease (the "New Lease"), which amendment and restatement shall
         replace and supercede in all respects the original SAVVIS Sublease and
         the provisions of the New Lease alone shall govern the rights and
         duties of the parties thereto with respect to the SAVVIS Subleased
         Equipment and SAVVIS' use and possession thereof. The New Lease shall
         be in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D, and will at
         a minimum provide for a lease term ending August 1, 2002, with the
         remaining monthly rental payments being in the amounts and payable upon
         the dates specified in Exhibit C attached hereto.

6.       Court Approval/Effective Date/Inclusion in Plan.

         a.       The parties to this Agreement will cooperate fully with one
                  another and will use their respective best efforts to secure
                  entry of an Order (in form and substance substantially similar
                  to the form of the Approval Order which is attached hereto as

         d.       Upon the Effective Date and provided SAVVIS makes all payments
                  as and when due to GECC under the New Lease, the Debtors and
                  the Lessor Group shall be deemed to have waived and released
                  SAVVIS from its obligations to make any further scheduled
                  rental payments due by it under the original SAVVIS Sublease;
                  provided, however, that the foregoing waiver and release shall

                  claim alleginig a default by SAVVIS in each case that accrued
                  prior to the Execution Date or that arises from and after the
                  Execution Date and prior to, but not including, the Effective
                  Date other than those events the occurrence of which would
                  constitute a default by SAVVIS under the terms of the New
                  Lease as if such New Lease were effective as of the Execution
                  Date; provided, however, the foregoing forbearance shall not
                  release or be deemed to release SAVVIS from its obligations to
                  make all payments as and when due under paragraphs 3.c. and
                  3.d. of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
                  forbearance contained in this paragraph 7.e. shall
                  automatically expire and be of no force and effect in the
                  event that the Effective Date has not occurred on or before
