on behalf of Co-Borrowers, in accordance with the terms of Section 2.2; provided
that, after giving effect to the amount requested, (i) the sum of the aggregate
principal amount of all outstanding Revolver Loans (including the Assigned
Dollar Value of all Foreign Currency Loans) shall not exceed the Aggregate
Commitment less the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding
Swingline Loans, and (B) the sum of the principal amount of any drawings not
reimbursed under Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.5(d) and the undrawn
amount of outstanding Letters of Credit (including the Assigned Dollar Value of
such unreimbursed drawings made in a Foreign Currency or such undrawn amount of
any Letters of Credit payable in a Foreign Currency), (ii) the sum of (A) the
principal amount of Revolver Loans (including the Assigned Dollar Value of all

such Lender's share of any required participations in outstanding Swingline
Loans, as required pursuant to Section 2.3, plus (C) such Lender's share of any
required participations in the outstanding amount of any Letters of Credit
(including the Assigned Dollar Value of such unreimbursed drawings made in a

Default or Event of Default and shall specify (A) that a Swingline Loan advance
is requested, (B) the date of the requested Swingline Loan advance (which shall

Swingline Loans shall be due and payable on the earlier of (A) 11:00 a.m. on the
maturity date specified by the Administrative Agent or (B) the Revolver Facility
Termination Date. The Swingline Lender may, at any time, in its sole discretion,
by written notice to the Co-Borrowers and the Lenders not later than 11:00 a.m.
on the date of the repayment, demand repayment of its Swingline Loans by way of
an advance under the Revolver Facility, in which case the Co-Borrowers shall be
deemed to have requested a Revolver Loan comprised solely of Base Rate Loans in

Facility Termination Date and on the date of the occurrence of any Event of
Default described in Section 10.1 and upon acceleration of the Obligations
hereunder and the exercise of remedies in accordance with the provisions of
Section 10.2. Each Lender hereby irrevocably agrees to make its pro rata share

specified in the preceding sentence notwithstanding (I) the amount of such
borrowing may not comply with the minimum amount for advances of Revolver Loans
otherwise required hereunder, (II) whether any conditions specified in Section

exists, (IV) failure of any such request or deemed request for Revolver Loan to
be made by the time otherwise required hereunder, (V) whether the date of such

proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code with respect to any Co-Borrower or any
Subsidiary of any Co-Borrower), 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 such Co-Borrower 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 Revolver Loan
Commitment Percentage of the aggregate Revolver Loan Commitments (determined
before giving effect to any termination of the Revolver Facility pursuant to
Section 2.6), 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, to the extent not paid to the
Swingline Lender by the Co-Borrowers in accordance with the terms of subsection
(c) hereof, interest on the principal amount of participation purchased for each

Co-


                                      -22-

Borrowers shall repay such excess, and such payment shall be applied in the
following order: (i) first, to Swingline Loans; (ii) secondly, to Revolver Loans

         SECTION 2.5 Letters of Credit.

         (a) Issuance of Letters of Credit. Issuing Bank shall from time to time
issue, extend or renew Letters of Credit that are payable in Dollars or Foreign
Currency for the account of each of the Co-Borrowers, upon such terms and
conditions as Issuing Bank may then require under its standard letter of credit
documentation; provided that (i) the sum of the principal amount of any drawings
under Letters of Credit not reimbursed pursuant to Section 2.5(d) and the
undrawn amount of outstanding


                                      -23-
<PAGE>   30

Letters of Credit (including the Assigned Dollar Value of such unreimbursed
drawings made in a Foreign Currency or such undrawn amount of any Letters of
Credit payable in a Foreign Currency) shall at no time exceed the LOC Committed
Amount, and (ii) the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving
Loans outstanding (including the Assigned Dollar Value of all Foreign Currency
Loans), (B) the sum of the principal amount of any drawings under Letters of
Credit not reimbursed pursuant to Section 2.5(d) and the undrawn amount of
outstanding Letters of Credit (including the Assigned Dollar Value of such
unreimbursed drawings made in a Foreign Currency or such undrawn amount of any
Letters of Credit payable in a Foreign Currency), (C) the aggregate principal
amount of outstanding Swingline Loans shall all at no time exceed the Aggregate
Commitment, and (D) the face amount of each Letter of Credit shall not be less
than the Assigned Dollar Value of $5,000,000. No Letter of Credit shall have an
original expiration date that extends beyond the Revolving Facility Termination
Date. The joint and several reimbursement obligations of the Co-Borrowers under
any such Letters of Credit are to be Obligations hereunder, and the coming due
of any reimbursement obligation under any such Letter of Credit shall be deemed
to be a request for a Revolving Loan in the amount of such Obligation. If an
Event of Default occurs or exists, or, if at the Revolving Facility Termination
Date, there is outstanding a Letter of Credit that as originally issued or as
extended had an expiry date extending beyond the Revolving Facility Termination
Date, Co-Borrowers, on demand by the Issuing Bank, are to deliver to the
Administrative Agent good funds equal to 100% of the maximum stated liability
under all outstanding Letters of Credit, which funds are to be deposited in a
separate, blocked account (the "Cash Collateral Account") maintained by
Co-Borrowers with the Administrative Agent and are to be held in the Cash
Collateral Account for the benefit of the Lenders as cash collateral for the Co-
Borrowers' joint and several reimbursement obligations and the other LOC
Obligations. Without limiting any other provisions in this Agreement, including
the restrictions on the issuance, extension or renewal of Letters of Credit set
forth in Section 2.5(a) hereof, the parties hereto hereby agree that if at any
time the sum of the undrawn amount of outstanding Letters of Credit exceeds the
LOC Committed Amount, Co-Borrowers, on demand by the Issuing Bank, are to
deliver to the Administrative Agent good funds equal to 100% of the amount of
such excess, which funds are to be deposited in the Cash Collateral Account
maintained by Co-Borrowers with the Administrative Agent and are to be held in
the Cash Collateral Account for the benefit of the Lenders as cash collateral
for the Co-Borrowers' joint and several reimbursement obligations and the other
LOC Obligations.

         (b) Letter of Credit Fees. Upon the issuance, renewal or extension of a
Letter of Credit on or after the Closing Date, the Co-Borrowers jointly and
severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the
Lenders as set forth below, a non-refundable, fully- earned fee (the "LOC
Issuance Fee") with respect to the face amount of the Letter of Credit and such
fee shall be paid by the Co-Borrowers in arrears on the last Business Day of
each calendar quarter commencing December 31, 1999, and on the Revolving
Facility Termination Date, based upon the face amount of such Letter of Credit
multiplied by the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Rate Loans in effect on the last
day of immediately preceding calender quarter (irrespective of whether any LIBOR
Rate Loans are then outstanding). Each Lender, upon the issuance, renewal or
extension of a Letter of Credit on or after the Closing Date, shall share in the
LOC Issuance Fee which shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and
assessed for the actual number of days elapsed. The Co-Borrowers jointly and
severally further agree to (I) pay to the Issuing Bank, for its own account, a
non-refundable, fully-earned fee equal to 0.125% per annum of the face amount of
each Letter of Credit issued, renewed or extended by the Issuing Bank (the "LOC
Fronting Fee"), which shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and
assessed for the actual number of days elapsed and payable by the Co-Borrowers
in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter commencing December
31, 1999, and on the Revolving Facility Termination Date, and (II) pay the to
the Issuing Bank, for its own account, such administrative and operational fees,
charges,


                                      -24-
<PAGE>   31

and expenses customarily charged by the Issuing Bank with respect to the
issuance, handling, and administration of payment under Letters of Credit,
including, without limitation, any draw fees payable to correspondent banks upon
each drawing under any Letter of Credit. Co-Borrowers shall pay to and reimburse
Issuing Bank for any charges levied by foreign banks in connection with the
issuance of any Letters of Credit.

         (c) Participation. To the extent that Issuing Bank has not been
reimbursed as required hereunder or under any such Letter of Credit, the
Administrative Agent shall notify each of the Lenders, and each such Lender
shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the Issuing Bank such Lender's
Commitment Percentage of the Revolving Loan made to pay such unreimbursed
drawing in same day funds on the day of notification by Issuing Bank of an
unreimbursed drawing pursuant to the provisions of subsection (d) hereof. The
obligation of each Lender to fund any Revolving Loan as provided above shall be
absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any dispute over the
propriety of payment under any Letter of Credit, the occurrence of a Default, an
Event of Default or any other occurrence or event. Any such reimbursement shall
not relieve or otherwise impair the joint and several obligations of the
Co-Borrowers to reimburse Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit, together with
interest on such reimbursement amounts as provided in subsection (d) hereof.

         (d) Reimbursement. Issuing Bank will promptly notify the Co-Borrowers
of any drawing under any Letter of Credit. Unless Holdings, on behalf of the
Co-Borrowers, shall immediately notify Issuing Bank that the Co-Borrowers intend
to reimburse Issuing Bank for such drawing other than from proceeds of Revolving
Loans, the Co-Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested that the Lenders make
Revolving Loans in the amount of such drawing as provided in subsection (e)
hereof on the related Letter of Credit, the proceeds of which will be used to
satisfy the related reimbursement obligations to Issuing Bank. The Co-Borrowers
jointly and severally agree to reimburse Issuing Bank on the date of drawing
under any Letter of Credit (either with the proceeds of Revolving Loans or
otherwise) in immediately available funds. If the conditions for making a
Revolving Loan deemed requested pursuant to this Section 2.5(d) to reimburse any
Letter of Credit drawing have not been satisfied as provided in Section 2.5(e)
hereof, and the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion has not waived the
unsatisfied conditions for making the Revolving Loan but has not accelerated the
payment date of the Obligations pursuant to Section 10.2 hereof because of the
Co-Borrowers' failure to reimburse such drawing, the Co-Borrowers shall pay the
Letter of Credit drawing in full, or the unreimbursed amount of such drawing
shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus two percent
(2%). The Co-Borrowers' reimbursement obligations hereunder shall be absolute
and unconditional under all circumstances irrespective of any rights of setoff,
counterclaim or defense to payment any Co-Borrower may claim or have against
Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the beneficiary of such
Letter of Credit or any other Person, including without limitation any defense
based on any failure of any Co-Borrower or any Subsidiary of any Co-Borrower to
receive consideration or the legality, validity or unenforceability of the
Letter of Credit. Issuing Bank will promptly notify the other Lenders of the
amount of any unreimbursed drawing and each Lender shall promptly pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of Issuing Bank, in Dollars or, in the case
of any Letter of Credit drawing made in a Foreign Currency, the applicable
Foreign Currency, and in immediately available funds, the amount of such
Lender's Commitment Percentage of such unreimbursed drawing and such


                                      -25-
<PAGE>   32

payment shall be made or deemed made pursuant to clause (e) below. Such payment
shall be made on the day such notice is received by such Lender from Issuing
Bank if such notice is received at or before 3:00 P.M. (Atlanta time);
otherwise, such payment shall be made at or before 1:00 P.M. (Atlanta time) on
the Business Day next succeeding the day such notice is received. If such Lender
does not pay such amount to Issuing Bank in full upon such request, such Lender
shall, on demand, pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of Issuing
Bank interest on the unpaid amount during the period from the date of such
drawing until such Lender pays such amount to Issuing Bank in full at a rate per
annum equal to, if paid within two (2) Business Days of the date that such
Lender is required to make payments of such amount pursuant to the preceding
sentence, the Federal Funds Rate and thereafter at a rate equal to the Domestic
Base Rate. Each Lender's obligation to make such payment to Issuing Bank, and
the right of Issuing Bank to receive the same, shall be absolute and
unconditional, shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever and without
regard to the termination of this Agreement or the Commitments hereunder, the
existence of a Default or Event of Default or the acceleration of the
obligations of the Co-Borrowers hereunder and shall be made without any offset,
abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Simultaneously with the making
of each such payment by a Lender to Issuing Bank, such Lender shall,
automatically and without any further action on the part of Issuing Bank or such
Lender, acquire a participation in an amount equal to such payment (excluding
the portion of such payment constituting interest owing to Issuing Bank) in the
related unreimbursed drawing portion of the LOC Obligation and in the interest
thereon, and shall have a claim against Co-Borrowers with respect thereto.

         (e) Repayment with Revolving Loans. On any day on which the
Co-Borrowers shall have requested, or been deemed to have requested as provided
in clause (d) above, a Revolving Loan advance to reimburse a drawing under a
Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall give notice to the Lenders that
a Revolving Loan has been requested or deemed requested by the Co-Borrowers to
be made in connection with a drawing under a Letter of Credit, in which case
Lenders shall severally make Revolving Loans to the Co-Borrowers jointly and
severally in a principal amount for each Lender equal to such Lender's
Commitment Percentage of such Revolving Loan requested or deemed to be requested
by the Co-Borrowers. Each Lender shall make available to the Administrative
Agent, at the office of the Administrative Agent in Dollars or, in the case of
any Letter of Credit drawing made in a Foreign Currency, the applicable Foreign
Currency, in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent, such
Lender's Commitment Percentage of the Revolving Loans requested, and the
proceeds thereof shall be paid directly to Issuing Bank for application to the
respective LOC Obligations. Each such Lender hereby irrevocably agrees to make
its Commitment Percentage of each such Revolving Loan immediately upon any such
request or deemed request 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 advances of Revolving Loans otherwise
required hereunder, (ii) whether any conditions specified Section 4.2 are then
satisfied, (iii) whether a Default or an Event of Default then exists, (iv)
failure for any such request or deemed request for Revolving Loans to be made by
the time otherwise required hereunder, (v) whether the date of such borrowing is
a date on which Revolving Loans are otherwise permitted to be made hereunder or
(vi) any termination of the Commitments relating thereto immediately prior to or
contemporaneously with such borrowing. In the event that any Revolving Loan
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


                                      -26-
<PAGE>   33

with respect to any Co-Borrower or any other Person obligated upon the
Obligations), then each such 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 Co-Borrowers on or after such date
and prior to such purchase) from Issuing Bank such participation in the
outstanding LOC Obligations as shall be necessary to cause each such Lender to
share in such LOC Obligations ratably (based upon the respective Commitment
Percentages of the Lenders (determined before giving effect to any termination
of the Commitments pursuant to Section 2.6)), provided that at the time any such
purchase of a participation is actually made, the purchasing Lender shall be
required to pay to Issuing Bank, to the extent not paid to the Issuing Bank by
the Co-Borrowers in accordance with the terms of subsection (d) hereof, 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, if paid within two (2)
Business Days of the date of the Revolving Loan, at the Federal Funds Rate, and
thereafter at the Domestic Base Rate.

         (f) Renewal, Extension. The renewal or extension of any Letter of
Credit shall, for purposes hereof, be treated (without duplication) in all
respects the same as the issuance of a new Letter of Credit hereunder.

         (g) Uniform Customs and Practices. Unless the parties agree otherwise
in writing, the Letters of Credit shall be subject to the Uniform Customs and
Practice for Documentary Credits, as published as of the date of issue by the
International Chamber of Commerce (the "UCP") that shall be specified in the
Letter of Credit, and the UCP shall be incorporated therein and deemed in all
respects to be a part thereof.

         (h)      Indemnification; Nature of Issuing Bank's Duties.

                  (A) In addition to its other obligations under this Section,
         subject to the UCP and the terms of the Letter of Credit, each
         Co-Borrower shall and does hereby protect, indemnify, pay and save
         Issuing Bank harmless from and against any and all claims, demands,
         liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including
         reasonable attorneys' fees) that Issuing Bank may incur or be subject
         to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (i) the issuance of any
         Letter of Credit or (ii) the failure of Issuing Bank to honor a drawing
         under a Letter of Credit as a result of any act or omission, whether
         rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto
         government or governmental authority (all such acts or omissions,
         herein called "Government Acts").

                  (B) As between the Co-Borrowers and Issuing Bank, subject to
         the UCP and the terms of the Letter of Credit, the Co-Borrowers shall
         assume all risks of the acts, omission or misuse of any Letter of
         Credit by the beneficiary thereof, and Issuing Bank shall not be
         responsible (i) for the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy,
         genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in
         connection with the application for and issuance of any Letter of
         Credit, even if any such document should in fact prove to be in any or
         all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged,
         (ii) for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or
         assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit or
         the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in
         part, that may


                                      -27-
<PAGE>   34

         prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason, (iii) for errors,
         omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any
         messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not
         they be in cipher, (iv) for any loss or delay in the transmission or
         otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under a
         Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof, and (v) for any
         consequences arising from causes beyond the control of Issuing Bank,
         including, without limitation, any Government Acts. None of the above
         shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of Issuing Bank's rights
         or powers hereunder.

                  (C) In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the
         specific provisions of the foregoing, any action taken or omitted by
         Issuing Bank or any Lender, under or in connection with any Letter of
         Credit or the related certificates, if taken or omitted in good faith
         and in accordance with this Agreement, shall not put such Issuing Bank
         or such Lender under any resulting liability to the Co-Borrowers or any
         of their Subsidiaries. Issuing Bank and the Lender shall not, in any
         way, be liable for any failure by Issuing Bank or anyone else to pay
         any drawing under any Letter of Credit as a result of any Government
         Acts or any other cause beyond the control of Issuing Bank.

                  (D) Nothing in this subsection (h) is intended to limit the
         joint and several reimbursement obligations of the Co-Borrowers
         contained in subsection (d) above. The joint and several obligations of
         the Co-Borrowers under this subsection (h) shall survive the
         termination of this Agreement. No act or omissions of any current or
         prior beneficiary of a Letter of Credit shall in any way affect or
         impair the rights of Issuing Bank or any Lender to enforce any right,
         power or benefit under this Agreement.

                  (E) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
         Section 2.5, the Co-Borrowers shall not have an obligation to indemnify
         Issuing Bank in respect of any liability incurred by Issuing Bank (i)
         arising solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
         Issuing Bank, or the failure of Issuing Bank to comply with its
         obligations under the UCP, or (ii) caused by Issuing Bank's failure to
         pay under any Letter of Credit after presentation to it of a request
         complying with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit,
         unless such payment is prohibited by law, regulation, court order or
         decree.

         (i) Responsibility of Issuing Bank. It is expressly understood and
agreed that the obligations of Issuing Bank to the Lenders are only those
expressly set forth in this Agreement and that Issuing Bank shall be entitled to
assume with respect to any Revolving Loans requested or deemed to be requested
hereunder that the conditions precedent to borrowings set forth in Section 4.3
have been satisfied; provided, however, that nothing set forth in this Section
2.5 shall be deemed to prejudice the right of any Lender to recover from Issuing
Bank any amounts made available by such Lender to Issuing Bank pursuant to this
Section 2.5 in the event that it is determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction that the payment with respect to a Letter of Credit constituted
gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Issuing Bank.

         (j) Conflict with Letter of Credit Documents. All documents and
instruments executed in connection with the issuance of any Letter of Credit
(other than the subject Letter of Credit) shall be interpreted in a manner to be
consistent with, and not in conflict of, this Agreement and the other


                                      -28-
<PAGE>   35

Loan Documents, but in the event of any conflict between the provisions of this
Agreement and any document or instrument executed in connection with the
issuance of any Letter of Credit (including any letter of credit application,
but excluding the subject Letter of Credit), the terms and provisions of this
Agreement shall control.

         SECTION 2.6 Termination of Revolver Facility. The Lenders' Revolver
Loan Commitments under Sections 2.1 and 2.3 shall terminate on the earlier of
(i) the Expiration Date or (ii) the date of termination by the Administrative
Agent on behalf of the Lenders pursuant to Section 10.2(a).

         SECTION 2.7 Use of Proceeds. The Co-Borrowers shall use the proceeds of
the Loans (a) to refinance the existing Debt of the Borrowers outstanding under
the Original Credit Agreement on the Closing Date, and (b) for working capital
and general corporate requirements of the Co- Borrowers, including, without
limitation, stock repurchases in respect of Holding's capital stock and
Permitted Acquisitions.

         SECTION 2.8 Co-Borrower and Guarantor Liability. With respect to the
respective liabilities for the Obligations, the Co-Borrowers and Guarantors have
executed with the Administrative Agent that certain Contribution Agreement, of
even date, providing for certain contribution and other rights among the
Co-Borrowers and Guarantors.

         SECTION 2.9 Subordination of Subrogation and Contribution Claim. Each
Co-Borrower and each Guarantor hereby subordinates, to the collection and
payment in full of the Obligations and to the fullest extent possible, and
irrevocably agrees to delay until full and final payment of the Obligations any
enforcement of, any and all rights, whether at law, in equity, by agreement or
otherwise, to subrogation, indemnity, reimbursement, contribution, or any other
similar claim, cause of action or remedy that otherwise would arise out of such
Co-Borrower's or Guarantor's payment or performance of the Obligations,
including, without limitation, any and all claims under the Contribution
Agreement.

         SECTION 2.10 Foreign Subsidiary Guaranties. If at any time and from
time to time the Company shall establish for any foreign Material Subsidiary
(other than SG Austria) a Deemed Distribution Event, the foreign Material
Subsidiary shall execute a Limited Foreign Guaranty, and, upon such execution,
be relieved of liability under the Guaranty.

                             GENERAL LOAN PROVISIONS

         SECTION 3.1  Interest.

         (a) Interest Rate Options. Loans made on the Closing Date and during
the Initial Interest Period shall be Base Rate Loans and shall bear interest at
the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin (the "Applicable Margin") as set forth
below in this Section 3.1. Thereafter, Foreign Currency Loans shall bear
interest at the IBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin, Base Rate Loans shall bear
interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin, Swingline Loans shall bear
interest at the LIBOR Market Index Rate plus the Applicable Margin for LIBOR
Rate Loans, and, LIBOR Rate Loans shall bear interest at the LIBOR Rate plus the
Applicable Margin. On behalf of the Co-Borrowers, the Company shall determine
whether a Revolving Loan is to be a Base Rate Loan, LIBOR Rate Loan, or Foreign
Currency Loan and select the Interest Period, if any, applicable to any
Revolving Loan at the time a Notice of Borrowing is given pursuant to Section
2.2 or at the time a Notice of Conversion/Continuation is given pursuant to
Section 3.2. Any Loan or any portion thereof as to which the Company has not
duly specified an interest rate as provided herein shall be deemed a Base Rate
Loan, and, if it is a LIBOR Rate Loan or a Foreign Currency Loan for which an
Interest Period has ended, shall, so long as no Event of Default has occurred
and shall be continuing, be deemed renewed as a Base Rate Loan and, in each
case, no Event of Default shall arise as a result thereof.

         (b) Interest Periods. In connection with each Foreign Currency Loan and
LIBOR Rate Loan, the Company, on behalf of the Co-Borrowers, by giving notice at
the times described in Section 3.1(a), shall elect an interest period (each, an
"Interest Period") to be applicable to such Loan, which Interest Period shall be
a period of one, two, three or six months; provided that:

                  (i) the Interest Period shall commence on the date of advance
         of or conversion to any Foreign Currency Loan or LIBOR Rate Loan and,
         in the case of immediately successive Interest Periods, each successive
         Interest Period shall commence on the date on which the next preceding
         Interest Period expires;

                  (ii) if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day
         that is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the
         next succeeding Business Day; provided, that, with respect to any
         Foreign Currency Loan or LIBOR Rate Loan, if any Interest Period would
         otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day but is a day of
         the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month,
         such Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day;

                  (iii) with respect to any Foreign Currency Loan or LIBOR Rate
         Loan, any Interest Period that begins on the last Business Day of a
         calendar month (or on a day for which there is no numerically
         corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest
         Period) shall end on the last Business Day of the calendar month at the
         end of such Interest Period;


                                      -30-
<PAGE>   37

                  (iv) no Interest Period for Revolver Loans shall extend beyond
         the Revolver Facility Termination Date;

                  (v) there shall be no more than eight Types of LIBOR Rate
         Loans (including Foreign Currency Loans) outstanding at any time; for
         purposes of this provision, a "Type" of Loan shall refer to Loans with
         Interest Periods beginning and ending on the same date;

                  (vi) such right of election is subject to Section 3.1(e)(i);
         and

                  (vii) no Interest Period of six months shall be available for
         Foreign Currency Loans.

         (c) Applicable Margin. On and after the Closing Date until adjustments,
if any, pursuant to Section 3.1(d) below after receipt by the Administrative
Agent of financial statements for Holdings and Subsidiaries for the quarter
ended September 30, 1999, the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Rate Loans and Foreign
Currency Loans will be 0.75% and for Base Rate Loans be 0.00%, and, thereafter,
the Applicable Margin with respect to Base Rate Loans, LIBOR Rate Loans and
Foreign Currency Loans shall be determined as provided below by reference to the
Leverage Ratio at the end of each fiscal quarter of Holdings as follows:

         (d) Adjustments to Applicable Margin. Adjustments, if any, in the
Applicable Margin shall be made by the Administrative Agent ten (10) Business
Days after receipt by the Administrative Agent of quarterly financial statements
for Holdings and its Subsidiaries and the accompanying Officer's Compliance
Certificate setting forth the Leverage Ratio for Holdings and its Subsidiaries
as of the most recent fiscal quarter end. In the event Holdings fails to deliver
such financial statements and certificate within the time required by Sections
6.1(a) or (b) and Section 6.2 hereof, the Applicable Margin shall be the highest
Applicable Margin set forth above until five (5) Business Days after the
delivery of such financial statements and certificate.

         (e) Default Rate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, (i) the Co-Borrowers shall no longer have the option to
request LIBOR Rate Loans or Foreign Currency Loans, (ii) (A) prior to the
acceleration of any of the Obligations pursuant to Section 10.2, the amount of
any overdue Loan or other Obligation shall bear interest at a rate per annum two
percent (2.0%) in excess of the highest rate otherwise then applicable to the
Loans, and (B) after the acceleration of any of the Obligations pursuant to
Section 10.2, all of the Obligations shall bear interest at a rate per annum two
percent (2.0%) in excess of the highest rate otherwise then applicable to the
Loans, and (iii) all Foreign Currency Loans and LIBOR Rate Loans at the end of
their applicable Interest Period shall be converted to Base Rate Loans. Interest
shall continue to accrue on the Notes after the filing by or against either or
both Co-Borrowers of any petition seeking any relief in bankruptcy or under any
act or law pertaining to insolvency or debtor relief, whether state, federal or
foreign.

         (f) Interest Payment and Computation. Interest on each Loan shall be
payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date. Interest on Base Rate Loans
and Foreign Currency Loans made in British pounds sterling shall be computed on
the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and assessed for the
actual number of days elapsed, and interest on all other Loans shall be computed
on the basis of a year of 360 days and assessed for the actual number of days
elapsed.

         (g) Maximum Rate. In no contingency or event whatsoever shall the
aggregate of all amounts deemed interest hereunder or under any of the Notes
charged or collected pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or pursuant to any
of the Notes exceed the highest rate permissible under any Applicable Law which
a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem
applicable hereto. In the event that such a court determines that the Lenders
have charged or received interest hereunder in excess of the highest applicable
rate, the rate in effect hereunder shall automatically be reduced to the maximum
rate permitted by Applicable Law and the Lenders shall at the Administrative
Agent's option promptly refund to the applicable Co-Borrower or Co-Borrowers
any interest received by Lenders in excess of the maximum lawful rate or shall
apply such excess to the principal balance of the Obligations. It is the intent
hereof that the Co-Borrowers not pay or contract to pay, and that neither the
Administrative Agent nor any Lender receive or contract to receive, directly or
indirectly in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may be
paid by the Co-Borrowers under Applicable Law.

         SECTION 3.2 Notice and Manner of Conversion or Continuation of Loans.
After the Initial Interest Period, provided that no Default or Event of Default
has occurred and is then continuing, the Co-Borrowers shall have the option to
(i) convert at any time all or any portion of their outstanding Base Rate Loans
in a principal amount equal to $5,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in
excess thereof into LIBOR Rate Loans, (ii) upon the expiration of any Interest
Period, convert all or any part of their outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans in a
principal amount equal to $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess
thereof into Base Rate Loans, (iii) upon the expiration of its Interest Period,
continue any LIBOR Rate Loan in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or any whole
multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof as a LIBOR Rate Loan, and (iv) upon the
expiration of its Interest Period, continue any Foreign Currency Loan in
increments of 100,000 units of such Foreign Currency (such amount to have an
approximate minimum Assigned Dollar Value of $1,000,000) as a Foreign Currency
Loan in the same Foreign Currency; provided, that the


                                      -32-
<PAGE>   39

Co-Borrowers shall not be entitled to continue, but shall repay, such portion of
the Foreign Currency Loan that equals the Assigned Dollar Value Excess as of the
end of the Interest Period. Whenever the Co-Borrowers desire to convert or
continue Loans as provided above, the Company, on behalf of the Co-Borrowers,
shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable prior written notice in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit C (a "Notice of Conversion/Continuation") not later
than 11:00 a.m. (Atlanta time) three (3) Business Days before the Business Day,
in the case of a conversion to or a continuation of a LIBOR Rate Loan, four (4)
Business Days before the Business Day, in the case of a continuation of a
Foreign Currency Loan, and the same Business Day, in the case of a conversion to
a Base Rate Loan, on which a proposed conversion or continuation of such Loan is
to be effective specifying (i) the Loans to be converted or continued and, with
respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan to be converted or continued, the last day of the
current Interest Period therefor, (ii) the effective date of such conversion or
continuation (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the principal amount of such
Loans to be converted or continued and (iv) with respect to a continuation of
Foreign Currency Loan, the Foreign Currency and the Interest Period to be
applicable thereto. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders
of such Notice of Conversion/Continuation.

         SECTION 3.3  Fees.

         (a) Unused Revolver Fee. Commencing on the Closing Date and continuing
through and including the Revolver Facility Termination Date, the Co-Borrowers
shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, a
non-refundable unused revolver fee at a rate per annum (based on a 360 day year)
equal to 0.20% multiplied by the average daily unused portion of the Aggregate
Commitment (excluding outstanding Swingline Loans). The fee shall be payable in
arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter commencing December
31, 1999, and on the Revolver Facility Termination Date. Such commitment fee
shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent among the Lenders pro rata in
accordance with the Lenders' respective Commitment Percentages. For purposes of
calculating the unused revolver fee, Swingline Loans shall be excluded from
usage.

         (b) Administrative Agent's and Other Fees. In order to compensate the
Administrative Agent for its obligations hereunder and First Union Securities
Inc. for acting as arranger of this Credit Facility, the Co-Borrowers jointly
and severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent and First Union
Securities Inc., for their own account, the fees set forth in the Commitment and
Term Sheet between Administrative Agent, First Union Securities Inc. and the
Co-Borrowers, dated September 21, 1999, and the Fee Letter executed by the
Co-Borrowers in connection therewith (collectively, the "Term Sheet").

         (c) Letter of Credit Fees. Co-Borrowers jointly and severally agree to
pay the Letter of Credit fees as set forth in Section 2.5(b) hereof.

         (d) Fee and Cost Determination Detail. The Administrative Agent, any
Lender and Issuing Bank, shall provide reasonable detail to Co-Borrowers
regarding the manner in which the amount of any payment to the Lenders, or that
Lender or the Issuing Bank, under this Agreement has been computed.


                                      -33-
<PAGE>   40

         SECTION 3.4 Manner of Payment.

         (a) Each payment (including repayments described in Article II) by any
Co-Borrower on account of the principal of or interest on the Loans other than
Foreign Currency Loans or of any fee, commission or other amounts payable to the
Lenders under this Agreement or any Note shall be made not later than 1:00 p.m.
(Atlanta time) on the date specified for payment under this Agreement to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders to be distributed pro rata
among the Revolver Loans and among such Lenders in accordance with their
respective Revolver Loan Commitment Percentage (except for payment of Swingline
Loans, which are for the account of the Swingline Lender and other than fees
payable to the Account of the Issuing Bank in connection with any Letter of
Credit), at the Administrative Agent's Office, in immediately available funds,
and shall be made without any set-off, counterclaim or deduction whatsoever. Any
payment received after such time but before 2:00 p.m. (Atlanta time) on such day
shall be deemed a payment on such date for the purposes of Section 10.1, but for
all other purposes shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding
Business Day. Any payment received after 2:00 p.m. (Atlanta time) shall be
deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day for all purposes.
All Loans other than Foreign Currency Loans shall be repayable in Dollars, and
each Foreign Currency Loan shall be repayable in the Foreign Currency in which
the Loan was made and at the Euro Lending Office of the Administrative Agent
before 11:00 a.m. London time.

         (b) Pro Rata Treatment. Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of
each such payment for the account of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall
credit each Lender's account with its pro rata share of such payment in
accordance with such Lender's Revolver Loan Commitment Percentage and shall wire
advice of the amount of such credit to each Lender. Each payment to the
Administrative Agent of its fees or on the Swingline Loans shall be made in like
manner, but for the account of the Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lender,
as the case may be. Each payment to the Issuing Bank of its fees shall be made
in like manner, but for the account of the Issuing Bank Subject to Section 3.1
(b), if any payment under this Agreement or any Note shall be specified to be
made upon a day which is not a Business Day, it shall be made on the next
succeeding day which is a Business Day and such extension of time shall in such
case be included in computing any interest if payable along with such payment.

         SECTION 3.5 Crediting of Payments and Proceeds. In the event that
Co-Borrowers shall fail to pay any of the Obligations when due and the
Obligations have been accelerated pursuant to Section 10.2, all payments
received by the Lenders upon the Notes and the other Obligations and all net
proceeds from the enforcement of the Obligations shall be distributed pro rata
among the Revolver Facility and shall be further applied among the
Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank and such Lenders first, to all Administrative
Agent's fees and expenses then due and payable, then to all other expenses then
due and payable by the Co-Borrowers hereunder, then to all indemnity obligations
then due and payable by the Co-Borrowers hereunder, then to all commitment and
other fees and commissions then due and payable, then to accrued and unpaid
interest on the Notes (pro rata in accordance with all such amounts due), then
to the principal amount of the Notes, in that order.


                                      -34-
<PAGE>   41

         SECTION 3.6 Nature of Obligations of Lenders Regarding Loans;
Assumption by Administrative Agent. The obligations of the Lenders under this
Agreement to make the Loans are several and are not joint or joint and several.
Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior
to the applicable time period specified in Section 2.2 (b) on a proposed
borrowing date that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative
Agent such Lender's ratable portion of the amount to be borrowed on such date
(which notice shall not release such Lender of its obligations hereunder), the
Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available
to the Administrative Agent on the proposed borrowing date in accordance with
Section 2.2 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption,
make available to the Co-Borrowers on such date a corresponding amount. If such
amount is made available to the Administrative Agent on a date after such
borrowing date, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent on demand an
amount, until paid, equal to such Lender's applicable Revolver Loan Commitment
Percentage of such borrowing and interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to
the daily average Federal Funds Rate during such period as determined by the
Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent with respect to
any amounts owing under this Section shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
If such Lender's applicable Revolver Loan Commitment Percentage of such
borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender
within three (3) Business Days of such borrowing date, the Administrative Agent
shall be entitled to recover such amount made available by the Administrative
Agent with interest thereon at the rate per annum then applicable to such Loan
hereunder, on demand, from the applicable Co-Borrower or Co-Borrowers. The
failure of any Lender to make its applicable Revolver Loan Commitment Percentage
of any Loan available shall not relieve it or any other Lender of its
obligation, if any, hereunder to make its applicable Revolver Loan Commitment
Percentage of such Loan available on such borrowing date or prejudice any rights
of Co-Borrowers against such Lender, but no Lender shall be responsible for the
failure of any other Lender to make its applicable Revolver Loan Commitment
Percentage of such Loan available on the borrowing date.

         SECTION 3.7 Changed Circumstances.

         (a) Circumstances Affecting LIBOR Rate or IBOR Rate Availability. If
with respect to any Interest Period the Administrative Agent or any Lender
(after consultation with Administrative Agent) shall determine that by reason of
circumstances affecting the foreign exchange and interbank markets generally,
deposits in Eurodollars in the applicable amounts are not being offered (through
Telerate Page 3750 or otherwise) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender for
such Interest Period, then the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice
thereof to the Co-Borrowers. Thereafter, until the Administrative Agent notifies
the Co-Borrowers that such circumstances no longer exist, the obligation of the
Lenders to make Foreign Currency Loans and Foreign Currency Loans, and the right
of the Co-Borrowers to convert any Loan to or continue any Loan as a LIBOR Rate
Loan or Foreign Currency Loans, shall be suspended, and the applicable
Co-Borrower or Co-Borrowers shall repay in full (or cause to be repaid in full)
the then-outstanding principal amount of each such LIBOR Rate Loan and Foreign
Currency Loan, together with accrued interest thereon, on the last day of the
then current Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan or Foreign
Currency Loan or convert the then outstanding principal amount of each such
LIBOR Rate Loan and Foreign Currency Loan to a Base Rate Loan, if available, as
of the last day of such Interest Period.


                                      -35-
<PAGE>   42

         (b) Laws Affecting LIBOR Rate or IBOR Rate Availability. If, after the
date hereof, the introduction of, or any change in, any Applicable Law or any
change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental
Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or
administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or any of their respective
Lending offices) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force
of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency,
shall make it unlawful or impossible for any of the Lenders (or any of their
respective Lending Offices) to honor its obligations hereunder to make or
maintain any LIBOR Rate Loan or Foreign Currency Loan, such Lender shall
promptly give notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative
Agent shall promptly give notice to the Co-Borrowers and the other Lenders.
Thereafter, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Co-Borrowers that such
circumstances no longer exist (which notification shall be given promptly, but
in any event within thirty (30) days after the Administrative Agent obtains
actual knowledge that such circumstances no longer exist), (i) the obligations
of the Lenders to make LIBOR Rate Loans or Foreign Currency Loans and the right
of the Co-Borrowers to convert any Loan or continue any Loan as a LIBOR Rate
Loan shall be suspended and thereafter the Co-Borrowers may select only Base
Rate Loans hereunder, and (ii) if any of the Lenders may not lawfully continue
to maintain a Foreign Currency Loan or LIBOR Rate Loan to the end of the then
current Interest Period applicable thereto, the applicable Loan shall
immediately be converted to a Base Rate Loan for the remainder of such Interest
Period, and the applicable Co-Borrower or Co-Borrowers shall pay any amount
required to be paid pursuant to Section 3.8.

         (c) Increased Costs. If, after the date hereof, the introduction of, or
any change in, any Applicable Law, or in the interpretation or administration
thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged
with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any of the
Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices) with any request or
directive (whether or not having the force of law) of such Governmental
Authority, central bank or comparable agency:

                  (i) shall subject any of the Lenders (or any of their
respective Lending Offices) or the Issuing Bank to any tax, duty or other charge
with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan, Foreign Currency Loan, any Letter of Credit
or any Note or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to any of the
Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices) of the principal of or
interest on any LIBOR Rate Loan, Foreign Currency Loan or any Note or any other
amounts due under this Agreement in respect thereof (except for changes in the
rate of tax on the overall net income or franchises of any of the Lenders, the
Issuing Bank or any of their respective Lending Offices imposed by the
jurisdiction in which such Lender or the Issuing Bank is organized or is or
should be qualified to do business or such Lending Office is located); or

                  (ii) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve
(including, without limitation, any imposed by the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System), special deposit, insurance or capital or similar
requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit
extended by any of the Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices) or
shall impose on any of the Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices)
or the foreign exchange and interbank markets any other condition affecting any
LIBOR Rate Loan, Foreign Currency Loan, any Letter of Credit or any Note;


                                      -36-
<PAGE>   43

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the costs to any of the
Lenders of maintaining any LIBOR Rate Loan, Foreign Currency Loan or Letter of
Credit or to reduce the yield or amount of any sum received or receivable by any
of the Lenders under this Agreement or under the Notes in respect of a LIBOR
Rate Loan, Letter of Credit or a Foreign Currency Loan, then such Lender shall
promptly notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall
promptly notify the Co-Borrowers of such fact and demand compensation therefor
and, within fifteen (15) days after such notice by the Administrative Agent, the
Co-Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction. The Administrative
Agent will promptly notify the Co-Borrowers of any event of which it has
knowledge that will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section
3.7(c); provided, that the Administrative Agent shall incur no liability
whatsoever to the Lenders or the Co-Borrowers in the event it fails to do so. A
certificate of the Administrative Agent setting forth the basis for determining
such additional amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Lenders
shall be conclusively presumed to be correct absent manifest error. If any
Lender claims compensation under this Section, a Co-Borrower may at any time,
upon at least four (4) Business Days' prior notice to the Administrative Agent
and such Lender and upon payment through the date of such payment plus any
prepayment fee required or charges imposed under Section 3.8 hereof, pay in full
the affected LIBOR Rate Loans and Foreign Currency Rate Loans of such Lender or
request that such LIBOR Rate Loans and Foreign Currency Rate Loans be converted
to Base Rate Loans.

         SECTION 3.8 Indemnity. Each Co-Borrower jointly and severally shall and
hereby do indemnify each of the Lenders against any loss or expense (including
without limitation any foreign exchange costs) which may arise or be
attributable to each Lender's obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits or
other funds acquired to effect, fund or maintain the Loans or the Issuing Bank's
issuance or honor of a Letter of Credit (i) as a consequence of any failure by
the Co-Borrowers to make any payment when due of any amount due hereunder in
connection with a LIBOR Rate Loan or a Foreign Currency Loan, (ii) due to any
failure of the Co-Borrowers to borrow on a date specified therefor in a Notice
of Borrowing or Notice of Continuation/Conversion with respect to any LIBOR Rate
Loan or Foreign Currency Loan or (iii) due to any payment, prepayment or
conversion of any LIBOR Rate Loan or Foreign Currency Loan on a date other than
the last day of the Interest Period therefor. Each Lender's calculations of any
such loss or expense shall be furnished to the Co-Borrowers and shall be
presumed to be correct, absent manifest error.

         SECTION 3.9 Capital Requirements. If either (i) the introduction of, or
any change in, or in the interpretation of, any Applicable Law or (ii)
compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or comparable
agency or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law),
has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of,
or has affected or would affect the amount of capital required to be maintained
by, any Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of,
or with reference to the Commitments and other commitments of this type, below
the rate which such Lender or such other corporation could have achieved but for
such introduction, change or compliance, then within five (5) Business Days
after written demand by any such Lender, the Co-Borrowers shall pay to such
Lender from time to time as specified by such Lender additional amounts
sufficient to compensate such Lender or other corporation for such reduction. A
certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Co-Borrowers and


                                      -37-
<PAGE>   44

the Administrative Agent by such Lender, shall, in the absence of manifest
error, be presumed to be correct and binding for all purposes.

         SECTION 3.10  Taxes.

         (a) Payments Free and Clear. Any and all payments by the Co-Borrowers
hereunder or under the Notes shall be made free and clear of and without
deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions,
charges or withholding, and all liabilities with respect thereto excluding, (i)
in the case of each Lender, Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent, income
and franchise taxes imposed by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such
Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) is
organized or is or should be qualified to do business or any political
subdivision thereof and (ii) in the case of each Lender or the Issuing Bank,
income and franchise taxes imposed by the jurisdiction of such Lender's or
Issuing Bank's Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof (all such
non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and
liabilities being hereinafter referred to as "Taxes"). If any Co- Borrower shall
be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable
hereunder or under any Note to any Lender, Issuing Bank or the Administrative
Agent, (A) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after
making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional
sums payable under this Section 3.10) such Lender, the Issuing Bank or the
Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the amount
such party would have received had no such deductions been made, (B) such
Co-Borrower shall make such deductions, (C) such Co-Borrower shall pay the full
amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in
accordance with Applicable Law, and (D) such Co-Borrower shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent evidence of such payment to the relevant taxing authority
or other authority in the manner provided in Section 3.10(d). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, "Taxes" shall not include any taxes, levies, imposts, duties,
deductions, fees, charges or withholdings which are the result of any one or
more of the following events: (A) the failure of the applicable Lenders or the
Issuing Bank to properly or timely file any tax return required to be filed by
such Lenders or the Issuing Bank, (B) any transfer of the Lender's Commitment
Percentage or the Notes, or any part thereof, or any participation therein, by
the Lenders, or (C) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the applicable
Lenders or the Issuing Bank or any Affiliate of any of them or any breach by
such Lenders or the Issuing Bank of their obligations hereunder.

         (b) Stamp and Other Taxes. In addition, the Co-Borrowers shall pay any
present or future stamp, registration, recordation or documentary taxes or any
other similar fees or charges or excise or property taxes, levies of the United
States or any state or political subdivision thereof or any applicable foreign
jurisdiction which arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution,
delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement, the
Loans, the other Loan Documents, or the perfection of any rights in respect
thereto (hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes").

         (c) Indemnity. The Co-Borrowers jointly and severally shall and do
hereby indemnify each Lender and the Administrative Agent for the full amount of
Taxes and Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes and Other Taxes
imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 3.10) paid by
such Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent (as the case may be) and any


                                      -38-
<PAGE>   45

liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with
respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or
legally asserted. Such indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days
from the date such Lender, Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case
may be) makes written demand therefor.

         (d) Evidence of Payment. Within thirty (30) days after the date of any
payment of Taxes or Other Taxes, the affected Co-Borrower shall furnish to the
Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 12.1, the original
or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or other evidence of
payment satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

         (e) Survival. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement
of the Co-Borrowers hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the
Co-Borrowers contained in this Section 3.10 shall survive the payment in full of
the Obligations and the termination of the Commitments.

         (f) Failure to Pay in Foreign Currency. If any Co-Borrower is unable
for any reason to effect payment of a Foreign Currency Loan in the Foreign
Currency in which borrowed as required by this Agreement or if any Co-Borrower
shall default in any Foreign Currency Loan, each Bank may, through the
Administrative Agent, require such payment to be made in Dollars in the Dollar
Equivalent amount of such payment. In any case in which any Co-Borrower shall
make such payment in Dollars, such Co-Borrower agrees to hold the Lenders
harmless from any loss incurred by the Lenders arising from any change in the
value of Dollars in relation to such Foreign Currency between the date such
payment became due and the date of payment thereof. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, if any Co-Borrower is unable for any reason to
effect payment of a Foreign Currency Loan in the Foreign Currency in which
borrowed as required by this Agreement or if any Co-Borrower shall default in
any Foreign Currency Loan, then Agent shall be authorized, without notice to
either of the Co-Borrowers or the other Lenders, to extend Base Rate Loans under
the Revolver Facility in an amount sufficient to purchase an amount of the
Foreign Currency sufficient to repay the Foreign Currency Loan in full.

         (g) Judgment Currency. If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any
court or enforcing any such judgment it is necessary to convert any amount due
in any Foreign Currency into any other currency, the rate of exchange used shall
be the Administrative Agent's spot rate of exchange for the purchase of the
Foreign Currency with such other currency at the close of business on the
Business Day preceding the date on which judgment is given or any order for
payment is made. The obligation of the relevant Co-Borrower in respect of any
amount due from it hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment or order for a
liquidated sum or sums in respect of amounts due hereunder or under any judgment
or order in any other currency or otherwise, be discharged only to the extent
that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any
payment in a currency other than the relevant Foreign Currency the
Administrative Agent is able (in accordance with normal banking procedures) to
purchase the relevant Foreign Currency with such other currency. If the amount
of the relevant Foreign Currency that the Administrative Agent is able to
purchase with such other currency is less than the amount due in the relevant
Foreign Currency, notwithstanding any judgment or order, such Co-Borrower shall
indemnify the Lenders for the shortfall.

                                      -43-
<PAGE>   50

         (a) Organization; Power; Qualification. Each Co-Borrower, their
Material Subsidiaries and each Guarantor is duly organized, validly existing and
in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or
formation, has the power and authority to own its properties and to carry on its
business as now being conducted. Each Co-Borrower, their Material Subsidiaries
and each Guarantor is duly qualified and authorized to do business in each
jurisdiction where its business requires such qualification and authorization,
except where the failure to be so qualified and authorized to do business could
not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The jurisdictions
in which the Co-Borrowers and its Material Subsidiaries are organized and
qualified to do business as of the Closing Date are described on Schedule
5.1(a). On the Closing Date the only Subsidiaries of the Co-Borrowers that are
Material Subsidiaries are Scientific Games Finance Corporation, Scientific Games
Royalty Corporation, SGIL and SG Austria.

         (b) Ownership. Each Subsidiary of the Co-Borrowers as of the Closing
Date is listed on Schedule 5.1(b). As of the Closing Date, the capitalization of
the Co-Borrowers and each of its Subsidiaries consists of the number of shares,
authorized, issued and outstanding, of such classes and series, with or without
par value, described on Schedule 5.1(b). All outstanding shares have been duly
authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable. As of the
Closing Date, the shareholders of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries of
the Co-Borrowers and the number of shares owned by each are described on
Schedule 5.1(b). As of the Closing Date, there are no outstanding stock purchase
warrants, subscriptions, options, securities, instruments or other rights of any
type or nature whatsoever, which are convertible into, exchangeable for or
otherwise provide for or permit the issuance of capital stock of the
Co-Borrowers, or any of its Subsidiaries, except as described on Schedule
5.1(b).

         (c) Authorization of Agreement, Loan Documents and Borrowing. Each of
the Co- Borrowers and Guarantors has the right, power and authority and has
taken all necessary corporate and other action to authorize the execution,
delivery and performance of this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents
to which it is a party in accordance with their respective terms. This Agreement
and each of the other Loan Documents have been duly executed and delivered by
the duly authorized officers of the Co-Borrowers and Guarantors and each such
Loan Document executed and delivered by a Co-Borrower or a Guarantor constitutes
the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Co-Borrowers or the Guarantor, as
the case may be, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such
enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium
or similar state or federal debtor relief laws from time to time in effect which
affect the enforcement of creditors' rights in general or by general principles
of equity.

         (d) Compliance of Agreement, Loan Documents and Borrowing with Laws,
Etc. The execution, delivery and performance by the Co-Borrowers and each
Guarantor of the Loan Documents to which each such Person is a party in
accordance with their respective terms, the borrowings hereunder and the
transactions contemplated hereby do not and will not, by the passage of time,
the giving of notice or otherwise, (i) except as set forth on Schedule 5.1(d)
hereto, require any Governmental Approval or violate any Applicable Law relating
to Co-Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) conflict with, result in a
breach of or constitute a default under the articles of incorporation, bylaws or
other organizational documents of Co-Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any
Material Contract to which such Person is a party or by which any of its
properties may be


                                      -44-
<PAGE>   51

bound or any Governmental Approval relating to such Person or (iii) result in or
require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon or with respect to any
material property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Person.

         (e) Compliance with Law; Governmental Approvals. Each of the
Co-Borrowers and each Subsidiary (i) has all material Governmental Approvals
required by any Applicable Law for it to conduct its business and (ii) is in
material compliance with each Governmental Approval applicable to it and in
compliance with all other Applicable Law relating to it or any of its respective
properties because of the conduct of its business. Each such material
Governmental Approval is in full force and effect, is final and not subject to
review on appeal and is not the subject of any pending or, to the best knowledge
of the Co-Borrowers, threatened attack by direct or collateral proceeding,
except for such failures to be in full force and effect that could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

         (f) Tax Returns and Payments. Each of Co-Borrowers and their
Subsidiaries has duly filed or caused to be filed all federal, state, local and
other tax returns required by Applicable Law to be filed, and has paid, or made
adequate provision for the payment of, all federal, state, local and other
taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies upon it and its property,
income, profits and assets which are due and payable, except where the payment
of such tax is being disputed in good faith and adequate reserves have been
established (if and to the extent required by GAAP). No Governmental Authority
has asserted any Lien or other claim against Co-Borrowers or any Subsidiary
thereof with respect to the payment of all material state and federal taxes
which has not been discharged or resolved or is not being disputed in good
faith. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of Co-Borrowers and any
of its Subsidiaries in respect of federal, state, local and other taxes for all
Fiscal Years and portions thereof are in the judgment of the Co-Borrowers
adequate, and the Co-Borrowers do not anticipate any additional material taxes
or assessments for any of such years.

         (g) Environmental Matters. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.1(g), the
properties of each Co-Borrower and all Subsidiaries are in compliance in all
respects with all applicable Environmental Law, and there is no contamination
at, under or about such properties or such operations which could interfere in
any respect with the continued operation of such properties or impair in any
respect the fair saleable value thereof, except for such failures to comply and
contamination that could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.1(g), neither Co-Borrower nor any of
their Subsidiaries has received any written notice of material violation,
alleged violation, non-compliance, liability or potential liability regarding
environmental matters or compliance with Environmental Law with regard to any of
its properties or the operations conducted in connection therewith, nor does
either Co-Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries have knowledge that any such
notice will be received or is being threatened.

         (h)  ERISA.

                  (i) Neither Co-Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate maintains or
contributes to, or has any obligation under, any Employee Benefit Plans other
than those identified on Schedule 5.1(h);

                  (ii) Each Co-Borrower and each ERISA Affiliate is in material
compliance with all applicable provisions of ERISA and all other laws applicable
to any Employee Benefit Plans and the regulations and published interpretations
thereunder with respect to all Employee Benefit Plans except for any required
amendments for which the remedial amendment period as defined in Section 401(b)
of the Code has not yet expired. Each Employee Benefit Plan that is intended to
be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has been determined by the
Internal Revenue Service to be so qualified, and each trust related to such plan
has been determined to be exempt under Section 501(a) of the Code. Each such
Employee Benefit Plan has been operated in a manner to preserve such
qualification. No liability has been incurred by any Co-Borrower or any ERISA
Affiliate which remains unsatisfied for any taxes or penalties with respect to
any Employee Benefit Plan or any Multiemployer Plan;

                  (iii) No Pension Plan has been terminated, nor has any
accumulated funding deficiency (as defined in Section 412 of the Code) been
incurred (without regard to any waiver granted under Section 412 of the Code),
nor has any funding waiver from the Internal Revenue Service been received or
requested with respect to any Pension Plan, nor has either Co-Borrower or any
ERISA Affiliate failed to make any contributions or to pay any amounts due and
owing as required by Section 412 of the Code, Section 302 of ERISA or the terms
of any Pension Plan prior to the due dates of such contributions under Section
412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA, nor has there been any event requiring
any disclosure under Section 4041(c)(3)(C) or 4063(a) of ERISA with respect to
any Pension Plan;

                  (iv) Neither any Co-Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has: (A)
engaged in a nonexempt prohibited transaction described in Section 406 of ERISA
or Section 4975 of the Code; (B) incurred any liability to the PBGC which
remains outstanding other than the payment of premiums and there are no premium
payments which are due and unpaid; (C) failed to make a required contribution or
payment to a Multiemployer Plan; or (D) failed to make a required install ment
or other required payment under Section 412 of the Code;

                  (v) The execution and delivery by Co-Borrowers of this
Agreement and the borrowings hereunder will not involve any prohibited
transaction under ERISA or the Code;

                  (vi) No Termination Event has occurred or is reasonably
expected to occur; and

                  (vii) No material proceeding, claim, lawsuit and/or
investigation is existing or, to the best knowledge of Co-Borrowers, threatened
concerning or involving any (A) employee welfare benefit plan (as defined in
Section 3(1) of ERISA) maintained or contributed to by any Co-Borrower or any
ERISA Affiliate, (B) Pension Plan or (C) Multiemployer Plan.


                                      -46-
<PAGE>   53

         (i) Margin Stock. Neither Co-Borrower nor any Subsidiary thereof is
engaged principally or as one of its activities in the business of extending
credit other than in connection with any employee benefit plan for the purpose
of "purchasing" or "carrying" any "margin stock" (as each such term is defined
or used in Regulations G and U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System). No part of the proceeds of any of the Loans will be used for purchasing
or carrying margin stock or for any purpose which violates, or which would be
inconsistent with, the provisions of Regulation G, T, U or X of such Board of
Governors.

         (j) Government Regulation. Neither Co-Borrower nor any Subsidiary
thereof is an "investment company" or a company "controlled" by an "investment
company" (as each such term is defined or used in the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended) and neither Co-Borrower nor any Subsidiary thereof is, or
after giving effect to any Loan will be, a "Holding Company" or a "Subsidiary
Company" of a "Holding Company" or an "affiliate" of a "Holding Company" within
the respective meanings of each of the quoted terms of the Public Utility
Holding Company Act of 1935 as amended, or any other Applicable Law which
materially limits its ability to incur or consummate the transactions
contemplated hereby.

         (k) Patents, Copyrights and Trademarks. Co-Borrowers and their Material
Subsidiaries own or possess all patent, copyright and trademark rights which are
required to conduct their business without infringing upon any validly asserted
rights of others. To the best knowledge and belief of Co-Borrowers, no event has
occurred which permits, or after notice or lapse of time or both would permit,
the revocation or termination of any such rights which revocation or termination
constitutes a Material Adverse Effect. Neither Co-Borrower nor any of their
Subsidiaries has been threatened with any litigation regarding patents,
copyrights or trademarks that would present a material impediment to the
business of any such Person.

         (l) Material Contracts. Schedule 5.1(1) sets forth a complete and
accurate list of all contracts or other agreements, written or oral, of Holdings
or any of its Subsidiaries involving monetary liability of or to any such Person
in an amount in excess of $5,000,000 per annum in effect as of the Closing Date
not listed on any other Schedule hereto; other than as set forth in Schedule
5.1(1), each Co-Borrower and any Subsidiary thereof party thereto has performed
or is performing all of its material obligations under all Material Contracts
and, to the best knowledge of the Co-Borrowers, each other party thereto is in
substantial compliance with each Material Contract, and each Material Contract
is, and after giving effect to the consummation of the transactions contemplated
by the Loan Documents will be, in full force and effect in accordance with the
terms thereof. Each Co-Borrower and its Subsidiaries have made available on a
confidential basis for inspection by the Administrative Agent a true and
complete copy of each written contract or agreement of Holdings or any of its
Subsidiaries required to be listed on Schedule 5.1(1).

         (m) Employee Relations. As of the Closing Date, each of Co-Borrowers
and their Subsidiaries is not, except as set forth on Schedule 5.1(m), party to
any collective bargaining agreement nor has any labor union been recognized as
the representative of its employees. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.1(m),
each Co-Borrower knows of no pending, threatened or contemplated strikes, work
stoppage or other collective labor disputes involving their employees or those
of its Subsidiaries that reasonably could be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.


                                      -47-
<PAGE>   54

         (n) Burdensome Provisions. Neither Co-Borrower nor any Subsidiary
thereof is a party to any indenture, agreement, lease or other instrument, or
subject to any corporate or partnership restriction, Governmental Approval or
Applicable Law which is so unusual or burdensome as in the foreseeable future
could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither Co-
Borrower or its Subsidiaries presently anticipate that future expenditures
needed to meet the provisions of any statutes, orders, rules or regulations of a
Governmental Authority will be so burdensome as to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

         (o) Financial Statements. All balance sheets, statements of income,
retained earnings, stockholders' equity and cash flows, and all other financial
information of Co-Borrowers and their Subsidiaries (exclusive of any financial
projection under Section 6.1(c) or otherwise) which have been furnished by each
Co-Borrower to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for the purposes of or
in connection with this Agreement, including without limitation the financial
statements described in Section 4.2 (d), have been prepared in all material
respects in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods
involved and present fairly in accordance with GAAP in all material respects the
matters reflected therein subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to
changes resulting from normal year-end audit adjustments and items that would be
disclosed in footnotes to the audited statements. As of the Closing Date, except
as set forth on Schedule 5.1(o), neither Co-Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries
has any contingent liability or liability for taxes, long-term leases or unusual
forward or long-term commitments which are not reflected in the financial
statements described above or in the notes thereto.

         (p) Solvency. As of the Closing Date and after giving effect to each
Loan made hereunder, each Co-Borrower and each of their Material Subsidiaries
will be Solvent.

         (q) Titles to Properties. Each Co-Borrower and their Subsidiaries has
such title to the real property owned or leased by it as is necessary or
desirable to the conduct of its business and good and valid title to all of its
personal property sufficient to carry on its business as presently conducted,
except such property as has been disposed of by either Co-Borrower or its
Subsidiaries subsequent to such date which dispositions have been in the
ordinary course of business or as otherwise expressly permitted hereunder.
Schedule 5.1(q) hereto sets forth the address of all real property owned or
leased by a Borrower (and if leased, the record owner thereof).

         (r) Liens. None of the properties and assets of either Co-Borrower or
any Subsidiary thereof is subject to any Lien, except in each case Permitted
Liens. No financing statement under the Uniform Commercial Code of any state
which names either Co-Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof or any of their
respective trade names or divisions as debtor and which is still in effect, has
been filed in any state or other jurisdiction and neither Co-Borrower nor any
Subsidiary thereof has signed any such financing statement or any security
agreement authorizing any secured party thereunder to file any such financing
statement, except to perfect Permitted Liens.

         (s) Debt and Contingent Obligations. Schedule 5.1(s) is a complete and
correct listing as of the Closing Date of all Debt and Contingent Obligations of
Co-Borrowers and their Subsidiaries exceeding individually the amount of
$500,000. Each Co-Borrower and their Subsidiaries have performed and are in
material compliance with all of the terms of such Debt and


                                      -48-
<PAGE>   55

Contingent Obligations and all instruments and agreements relating thereto, and
no default or event of default, or event or condition which with notice or lapse
of time or both would constitute such a default or event of default on the part
of either Co-Borrower or their Subsidiaries exists with respect to any such Debt
or Contingent Obligation. Schedule 5.1(s) sets forth a complete and correct
listing of all bid, performance, litigation and similar bonds or guarantees
entered into by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries as in effect on the Closing
Date.

         (t) Litigation. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.1(t), there are no
actions, suits or proceedings pending nor, to the knowledge of the Co-Borrowers,
threatened against or in any other way relating adversely to or affecting either
Co-Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof or any of their respective properties in
any court or before any arbitrator of any kind or before or by any Governmental
Authority which, if adversely determined, is reasonably likely to have a
Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.1(t), there is no
attachment, judgment, lien, levy or order exceeding the Material Judgment Amount
that has been placed upon or assessed against either Co-Borrower or any of their
Subsidiaries and remains undischarged or unstayed.

         (u) Franchise and License Fees. Each Co-Borrower and each of its

business and has made appropriate provisions as is required by GAAP for any such
fees and charges which have accrued.

         (v) Absence of Defaults. No event has occurred or is continuing which

Material Contract or material judgment, decree or order of a court of competent
jurisdiction to which either Co-Borrower or its Subsidiaries is a party or by

No document furnished or written statement made to the Administrative Agent or
the Lenders by either Co-Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof in connection with
the negotiation, preparation or execution of this Agreement or any of the Loan
Documents contains or will, when considered as a whole, contain any untrue
statement of a fact material to the creditworthiness of Co-Borrower or its
Subsidiaries or omits or will omit to state a material fact necessary in order
to make the statements contained therein not misleading. Neither Co-Borrower is
aware of any facts which it has not disclosed in writing to the Administrative
Agent having a Material Adverse Effect, or insofar as either Co-Borrower can now
foresee, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

failure of the Co-Borrowers to be Year 2000 Compliant on a timely basis, (ii)
developed a plan and timeline for becoming Year 2000 Compliant on a timely

all material respects, and (iv) made inquiry of its key suppliers, vendors and
customers as to whether such person(s) will, on a timely basis, be Year 2000
Compliant in all material respects and on the basis of such inquiry reasonably
believes that all such person(s) will be Year 2000 Compliant. "Year 2000
Compliant" shall means that, in all material respects, all computer and software
related applications shall be able to recognize and perform properly, date
sensitive functions involving dates prior to and after December 31, 1999. The
Co-Borrowers shall take all action reasonably necessary to ensure that the
Borrowers shall be Year 2000 Compliant and that no material adverse change will
arise in the Co-Borrowers' financial condition as a result of its efforts or
failure to be Year 2000 Compliant.

         (y) No Material Adverse Change. Since December 31, 1998, there shall
not have occurred any event or condition (other than matters of general economic
or political nature) that has had or is reasonably likely to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

exercise of any such right, power or privilege preclude other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege or shall
be construed to be a waiver of any Event of Default. No course of dealing
between the Co-Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders or their
respective agents or employees shall be effective to change, modify or discharge
any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or to
constitute a waiver of any Event of Default.

         SECTION 10.4 Set-off. Except to the extent prohibited by law, in
addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under Applicable Law and not by
way of limitation of any such rights, upon and after the occurrence of any Event
of Default and during the continuance thereof after acceleration pursuant to
Section 10.2(a), the Lenders and any assignee or participant of a Lender in
accordance with Section 12.9 are hereby authorized by the Co-Borrowers at any
time or from time to time, without notice to the Co-Borrowers or to any other
Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to
appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or
demand, including, but not limited to, indebtedness evidenced by certificates of
deposit, whether matured or unmatured, excluding government securities required
by Applicable Law to be held as security for worker's compensation and similar
claims) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by the Lenders, or
any such assignee or participant to or for the credit or the account of the
Co-Borrowers against and on account of the obligations irrespective of whether
or not (a) the Lenders shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any of
the other Loan Documents or (b) the Administrative Agent shall have declared any
or all of the Obligations to be due and payable as permitted by Section 10.2.

SECTION 10.5 Adjustments. If any Lender (a "Benefitted Lender") shall at any
time receive any payment of all or part of its Loans, or interest thereon in a
greater proportion than any such payment received by any other Lender, if any,
in respect of such other Lender's Loans, or interest thereon, such Benefitted
Lender shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, purchase for cash from
the other Lenders such portion of each such other Lender's Loans as shall be
necessary to cause such Benefitted Lender to share the excess payment or
benefits ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, that if all or any portion
of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefitted
Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits
returned to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. The Co-Borrowers
agree that each Lender so purchasing a portion of another Lender's Loans may
exercise all rights of payment (including, without limitation, rights of
set-off) with respect to such portion as fully as if such Lender were the direct
holder of such portion.

         SECTION 10.6 Consents. The Co-Borrowers acknowledge that certain
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and
certain actions which may be taken by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in
the exercise of their respective rights under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents may require the consent of a Governmental Authority. If counsel to the
Administrative Agent reasonably determines that the consent of a Governmental
Authority is required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance
of any of the aforesaid Loan Documents or any Loan Documents delivered to the
Administrative Agent or the Lenders in connection therewith or as a result of
any action which may be taken pursuant thereto, then the Co-Borrowers, at the
Lenders' sole cost and expense, agree to use their reasonable efforts to secure
such consent and to cooperate with the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in
any action commenced by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to secure such
consent.


                                   ARTICLE XI

                            THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

         SECTION 11.1 Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and
authorizes Administrative Agent to act as Administrative Agent hereunder and
under the other Loan Documents and to take such actions as agent on its behalf
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and to exercise such powers and to
perform such duties, as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent
by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such other powers and duties as
are reasonably incidental thereto. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender
hereby (i) consents to the appointment of First Union as secured party under the
Note Pledge Agreement, and (ii) acknowledges and agrees that pursuant to the
terms of the Note Pledge Agreement, First Union in its capacity as secured party
under the Note Pledge Agreement will be acting for the benefit of itself, as
lender under the 364-Day Credit Agreement, and as Administrative Agent for the
benefit of the Lenders.

         SECTION 11.2 Nature of Duties. The Administrative Agent shall have no
duties or responsibilities other than those expressly set forth in this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent shall not have,
by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, a fiduciary relationship
in respect of any Lender; and nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, express or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to
impose upon the Administrative Agent any obligations or liabilities in respect
of this Agreement or any other Loan Document except as expressly set forth
herein or therein. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under
this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents or
attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct
of any agents or attorneys-in-fact that it selects with reasonable care. The
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to consult with legal counsel,
independent public accountants and other experts selected by it with respect to
all matters pertaining to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and its
duties hereunder and thereunder and shall not be liable for any action taken or
omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such
counsel, accountants or experts. The Lenders hereby acknowledge that the
Administrative Agent shall not be under any duty to take any discretionary
action permitted to be taken by it pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement
or any



                                      -67-
<PAGE>   74

other Loan Document unless it shall be requested in writing to do so by
the Required Lenders (or, where a higher percentage of the Lenders is expressly
required hereunder, such Lenders).

         SECTION 11.3 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Administrative Agent
nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or
Affiliates (each an "Exculpated Person") shall be (i) liable for any action
taken or omitted to be taken by it or any Exculpated Person under or in
connection with the Loan Documents, except for its or any Exculpated Person's
breach of any Loan Document, violation of Applicable Law, gross negligence or
willful misconduct, (ii) responsible in any manner to any Lender for any
recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties herein or in
any other Loan Document or in any document, instrument, certificate, report or
other writing delivered in connection herewith or therewith, for the execution,
effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability or sufficiency of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for the financial condition of
Co-Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries or any other Person, or (iii) required
to ascertain or make any inquiry concerning the performance or observance of any
of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document or the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of
Default, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Co-Borrowers or
any of their Subsidiaries.

SECTION 11.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be
entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any notice,
statement, consent or other communication (including, without limitation, any
thereof by telephone, telecopy, telex, telegram or cable) believed by it in good
faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the
proper Person or Persons. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat each
Lender as the owner of its interest hereunder for all purposes hereof unless and
until a written notice of the assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall
have been given to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of
this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from
taking or omitting to take any action in connection with this Agreement or any
other Loan Document (i) if such action or omission would, in the reasonable
opinion of the Administrative Agent, violate any Applicable Law or any provision
of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or (ii) unless and until it shall
have received such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, where a
higher percentage of the Lenders is expressly required hereunder, such Lenders)
as it deems appropriate or it shall first have been indemnified to its
satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense (other
than liability and expense arising from its own gross negligence or willful
misconduct) that may be incurred by it by reason of taking, continuing to take
or omitting to take any such action. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender
shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a
result of the Administrative Agent's acting or refraining from acting hereunder
or under any other Loan Document in accordance with the instructions of the
Required Lenders (or, where a higher percentage of the Lenders is expressly
required hereunder, such Lenders), and such instructions and any action taken or
failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Lenders
(including all subsequent Lenders).

         SECTION 11.5 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.
Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any
of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates
has made any representation or warranty to it and that no act by the
Administrative Agent or any such Person hereafter taken, including any review



                                      -68-
<PAGE>   75

of the affairs of each Co-Borrower and their Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to
constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any
Lender. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that (i) it has,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other
Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate,
made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects,
operations, properties, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of
each Co-Borrower and their Subsidiaries and made its own decision to enter into
this Agreement and extend credit to the Co-Borrowers hereunder, and (ii) it
will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any
other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem
appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals
and decisions in taking or not taking action hereunder and under the other Loan
Document and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself
as to the business, prospects, operations, properties, financial and other
condition and creditworthiness of each Co-Borrower and their Subsidiaries.
Except as expressly provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Document, the
Administrative Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or
on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other
information concerning the business, prospects, operations, properties,
financial or other condition or creditworthiness of each Co-Borrower and their
Subsidiaries or any other Person that may at any time come into the possession
of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees,
agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.

         SECTION 11.6 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be
deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of
Default (other than Events of Default under Section 10.1(b) with respect to
interest or fees) unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written
notice from Co-Borrowers or a Lender referring to this Agreement, describing
such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a "notice of
default." In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the
Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to the Lenders as soon as
reasonably practicable; provided, however, that if any such notice has also been
furnished to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to
notify the Lenders with respect thereto. The Administrative Agent shall (subject
to Sections 11.4 and 12.10) take such action with respect to such Default or
Event of Default as shall reasonably be directed by the Required Lenders;
provided that, unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received
such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to)
take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such
Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of
the Lenders.

         SECTION 11.7 Indemnification. To the extent the Administrative Agent is
not reimbursed by or on behalf of Co-Borrowers, and without limiting the joint
and several obligations of Co-Borrowers to do so, the Lenders (i) shall and do
hereby indemnify the Administrative Agent and its officers, directors,
employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact and Affiliates, ratably in proportion to
their respective percentages as used in determining the Required Lenders as of
the date of determination, from and against any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and expenses) or
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may at any time (including
at any time following the repayment in full of the Loans and the termination of
the Commitments) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the
Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this



                                      -69-
<PAGE>   76

Agreement or any other Loan Document or any documents contemplated by or
referred to herein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any
action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with
any of the foregoing, and (ii) shall reimburse the Administrative Agent upon
demand, ratably in proportion to their respective percentages as used in
determining the Required Lenders as of the date of determination, for any
expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the
preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery, administration, amendment,
modification, waiver or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal
proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or
responsibilities under, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents
(including, without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses and
compensation of agents and employees paid for services rendered on behalf of the
Lenders); provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of
such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent resulting from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified.

         SECTION 11.8 The Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity. With
respect to its Commitment, the Loans made by it and the Note or Notes issued to
it, the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity and not as
Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under the Loan
Documents as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not
performing the agency duties specified herein; and the terms "Lenders,"
"Required Lenders," "holders of Notes" and any similar terms shall, unless the
context clearly otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its
individual capacity. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept
deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust,
financial advisory or other business with either Co-Borrower, any of their
Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates as if the Administrative
Agent were not performing the agency duties specified herein, and may accept
fees and other consideration from any of them for services in connection with
this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to the
Lenders.

         SECTION 11.9 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent
may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days' prior written notice to the
Co-Borrowers and the Lenders. Upon any such notice of resignation, the Required
Lenders will, with the prior written consent of the Co-Borrowers (which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld), appoint from among the Lenders a successor
to the Administrative Agent (provided that the Co-Borrowers' consent shall not
be required in the event a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing). If no successor to the Administrative Agent shall have been so
appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment
within such thirty-day period, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on
behalf of the Lenders and after consulting with the Lenders and the
Co-Borrowers, appoint a successor Administrative Agent from among the Lenders.
Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent by a successor
Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon
succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties
of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent
shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the
other Loan Ns. After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation as
Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article XI shall inure to its
benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was



                                      -70-
<PAGE>   77

Administrative Agent. If no successor to the Administrative Agent has accepted
appointment as Administrative Agent by the thirtieth (30th) day following a
retiring Administrative Agent's notice of resignation, the retiring
Administrative Agent's resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become
effective, and the Lenders shall thereafter perform all of the duties of the
Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents until such
time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent
as provided for hereinabove.


                                   ARTICLE XII

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

         SECTION 12.1  Notices.

         (a) Method of Communication. Except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement, all notices and communications hereunder shall be in writing, or by
telephone subsequently confirmed in writing. Any notice shall be effective if
delivered by hand delivery or sent via telecopy, recognized overnight courier
service or certified mail, return receipt requested, and shall be presumed to be
received by a party hereto (i) on the date of delivery if a Business Day (or the
next Business Day is the day of delivery is not a Business Day) if delivered by
hand or sent by telecopy and if delivered or transmitted during normal business
hours, otherwise on the next Business Day, (ii) on the next Business Day if sent
by recognized overnight courier service and (iii) on the third Business Day
following the date sent by certified mail, return receipt requested. A
telephonic notice to any Agent as understood by such Agent will be deemed to be
the controlling and proper notice in the event of a discrepancy with or failure
to receive a confirming written notice.

         (b) Addresses for Notices. Notices to any party shall be sent to it at
the following addresses, or any other address as to which all the other parties

         If to any Lender:               The Address set forth on Schedule 1.1

         (c) Administrative Agent's Office. The Administrative Agent hereby
designates its Syndication Agency Services office at One First Union Center, 301
South College Street, DC-5, Charlotte, North Carolina 28288-0737, or any
subsequent office which shall have been specified for such purpose by written
notice to the Co-Borrowers and Lenders, as the Administrative Agent's office
referred to herein, to which payments due are to be made and at which Loans will
be disbursed.

SECTION 12.2 Expenses. Subject to the limitations contained in the Term Sheet,
the Co-Borrowers will pay the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the
Administrative Agent in connection with: (i) the preparation, execution and
delivery of this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents, whenever the
same shall be executed and delivered, including all syndication and due
diligence expenses, appraiser's fees, search fees, recording fees, taxes and the

engineers and attorneys, concerning or related to the nature, scope or value of
any right or remedy of the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders hereunder
or under any of the other Loan Documents, including any review of factual
matters in connection therewith, which expenses shall include the reasonable
fees and disbursements of such Persons. In addition, after the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Co-Borrowers will pay the
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent and each Lender in
connection with prosecuting or defending any claim in any way arising out of,
related to, connected with, or enforcing any provision of, this Agreement or any
of the other Loan Documents, which expenses shall include the reasonable fees
and disbursements of counsel and of experts and other consultants retained by
the Administrative Agent (but with any counsel engaged by the Administrative
Agent, to be approved by both the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders,
with the Administrative Agent not to withhold its approval unreasonably but to
have the sole choice of counsel if the Administrative Agent and the Required
Lenders cannot agree) or any of the Lenders but shall not, with respect to all
counsel hired by the Lenders other than the Administrative Agent, result in the



                                      -72-
<PAGE>   79

payment of legal fees by the Co-Borrowers in excess of five thousand dollars
($5,000) for the subject Event of Default; provided, however, that in connection
with any litigation or other proceeding (i) between the Co-Borrowers and the
Lenders, the Co-Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay any expenses or costs of
the Lenders (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and
expenses) that are attributable to any issue raised in such litigation or other
proceeding with respect to which the Co-Borrowers shall have prevailed (the
determination, if necessary, of which party shall have prevailed may be made by
the court or arbitration panel in the trial or appeal of such action or other
proceeding) and (ii) solely between any Lender and the Administrative Agent, the
Co-Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay any expenses or costs of any Lender
or the Administrative Agent.

         SECTION 12.3 Governing Law. This Agreement, the Notes and the other
Loan Documents, unless otherwise expressly set forth therein, shall be governed
by, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia,
without reference to the conflicts or choice of law principles thereof.

         SECTION 12.4 Consent to Jurisdiction. The Co-Borrowers hereby
irrevocably consent to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts
located in Fulton County, Georgia, in any action, claim or other proceeding
arising out of any dispute in connection with this Agreement, the Notes and the
other Loan Documents, any rights or obligations hereunder or thereunder, or the
performance of such rights and obligations. The Co-Borrowers, the Administrative
Agent and each Lender hereby irrevocably consent to the service of a summons and
complaint and other process in any action, claim or proceeding brought by any
party hereto in connection with this Agreement, the Notes or the other Loan
Documents, any rights or obligations hereunder or thereunder, or the performance
of such rights and obligations, on behalf of itself or its property, in the
manner specified in Section 12.1, if and to the extent otherwise in compliance
with Applicable Law. Nothing in this Section 12.4 shall affect the right of the
Co-Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or any Lender to serve legal process in
any other manner permitted by Applicable Law or affect the right of the
Co-Borrowers, Administrative Agent or any Lender to serve legal process in any
other manner permitted by Applicable Law or affect the right of the
Administrative Agent or any Lender to bring any action or proceeding against any
party hereto or its properties in the courts of any other jurisdictions.

         SECTION 12.5  Arbitration.

         (a) Binding Arbitration. Upon demand of any party, whether made before
or after institution of any judicial proceeding, any dispute, claim or
controversy arising out of, connected with or relating to the Notes or any other
Loan Documents ("Disputes"), between or among parties to the Notes or any other
Loan Document shall be resolved by binding arbitration as provided herein.
Institution of a judicial proceeding by a party does not waive the right of that
party to demand arbitration hereunder. Disputes may include, without limitation,
tort claims, counterclaims, claims brought as class actions, claims arising from
Loan Documents executed in the future, or claims concerning any aspect of the
past, present or future relationships arising out of or connected with the Loan
Documents. Arbitration shall be conducted under and governed by the Commercial
Financial Disputes Arbitration Rules (the "Arbitration Rules") of the American
Arbitration



                                      -73-
<PAGE>   80

Association (the "AAA") and Title 9 of the U.S. Code. All arbitration hearings
shall be conducted in Atlanta, Georgia. The expedited procedures set forth in
Rule 51, et seq. of the Arbitration Rules shall be applicable to claims of less
than $1,000,000. All applicable statutes of limitation shall apply to any
Dispute. A judgment upon the award may be entered in any court having
jurisdiction. The panel from which all arbitrators are selected shall be
comprised of licensed attorneys. The single arbitrator selected for expedited
procedure shall be a retired judge from the highest court of general
jurisdiction, state or federal, of the state where the hearing will be
conducted. The arbitrators shall be appointed as provided in the Arbitration
Rules.

         (b) Preservation of Certain Remedies. Notwithstanding the preceding
binding arbitration provisions, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
preserve, without diminution, certain remedies that the Administrative Agent and
the Lenders may employ or exercise freely, either alone, in conjunction with or
during a Dispute. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have and hereby
reserve the right to proceed in any court of proper jurisdiction or by self help
to exercise or prosecute the following remedies: (i) all rights to foreclose
against any real or personal property or other security by exercising a power of
sale granted in the Loan Documents or under applicable law or by judicial
foreclosure and sale, (ii) all rights of self help including peaceful occupation
of property and collection of rents, set off, subject to the provisions of
Section 10.4, and peaceful possession of property, (iii) when applicable, a
judgement by confession of judgement and (iv) obtaining provisional or ancillary
remedies including injunctive relief, sequestration, garnishment, attachment,
appointment of receiver and in filing an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding.
Preservation of these remedies does not limit the power of an arbitrator to
grant similar remedies that may be requested by a party in a Dispute.

         SECTION 12.6 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, EACH LENDER AND EACH CO-BORROWER
HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL WITH RESPECT TO
ANY ACTION, CLAIM OR OTHER PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF ANY DISPUTE IN CONNECTION
WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, ANY RIGHTS OR
OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER, OR THE PERFORMANCE OF SUCH RIGHTS AND
OBLIGATIONS.

         SECTION 12.7 Reversal of Payment. To the extent any Co-Borrower makes a
payment or payments to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the
Lenders which payments or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated,
declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be
repaid to a 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 proceeds repaid, the Obligations or part thereof intended to be
satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such
payment or proceeds had not been received by the Administrative Agent.

         SECTION 12.8 Injunctive Relief. The Co-Borrowers, Administrative Agent
and each Lender recognize that, in the event any of them fail to perform,
observe or discharge any of their obligations or liabilities under this
Agreement, any remedy of law may prove to be inadequate relief to the other
parties. Therefore, the Co-Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and each Lender
agree



                                      -74-
<PAGE>   81

that the other parties, at such parties' option, shall be entitled to temporary
and permanent injunctive relief in any such case without the necessity of
proving actual damages.

         SECTION 12.9 Successors and Assigns; Participations.

         (a) Each Lender may assign to one or more other Eligible Assignees or,
during the existence and continuance of an Event of Default, to any Person
(each, an "Assignee"), all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment,
the outstanding Loans made by it and the Note or Notes held by it); provided,
however, that (i) any such assignment (other than an assignment by a Lender to
an Affiliate of such Lender) shall not be made without the prior written consent
of the Administrative Agent and, if a Default or Event of Default has not
occurred and is not continuing, the Co-Borrowers (to be evidenced by their
counter execution of the relevant Assignment and Acceptance), which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld, (ii) except in the case of an assignment by
a Lender to an Affiliate of such Lender or during the existence and continuance
of a Default or Event of Default, the amount of the Commitment of the assigning
Lender being assigned pursuant to each such assignment (determined as of the
date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to each such assignment)
shall in no event be less than the lesser of (A) the entire Commitment of such
Lender immediately prior to such assignment or (B) $5,000,000, and (iii) the
parties to each such assignment will execute and deliver to the Administrative
Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and
Acceptance (an "Assignment and Acceptance") in the form of Exhibit E attached
hereto, together with any Note or Notes subject to such assignment, and the
Assignee will pay a non-refundable processing fee of $3000 to the Administrative
Agent for its own account. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and
recording of the Assignment and Acceptance, from and after the effective date
specified therein, which effective date shall be at least five Business Days
after the execution thereof (unless the Administrative Agent shall otherwise
agree), (A) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent
that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such
Assignment and Acceptance, shall have the rights and obligations of the
assigning Lender hereunder with respect thereto and (B) the assigning Lender
shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by
it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights (other than
rights under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
relating to indemnification or payment of fees, costs and expenses, to the
extent such rights relate to the time prior to the effective date of such
Assignment and Acceptance) and be released from its obligations under this
Agreement, other than obligations arising prior to the effective date of such
Assignment and Acceptance (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance
covering all or the remaining portion of such assigning Lender's rights and
obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto).
The terms and provisions of each Assignment and Acceptance shall, upon the
effectiveness thereof, be incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement,
and the covenants, agreements and obligations of each Lender set forth therein
shall be deemed made to and for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the
other parties hereto as if set forth at length herein.

         (b) The Administrative Agent will maintain at its address for notices
referred to herein a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and
accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of
the Lenders and the Commitments of, and principal



                                      -75-
<PAGE>   82

amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time (the "Register").
The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes,
absent manifest error, and the Co-Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender
hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available
for inspection by Co-Borrowers and each Lender at any reasonable time and from
time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

         (c) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance
executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee and counter executed by the
Co-Borrowers (if required), together with any Note or Notes subject to such
assignment and the processing fee referred to in subsection (a) above, the
Administrative Agent will (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) on the
effective date thereof, record the information contained therein in the Register
and (iii) give notice thereof to the Co-Borrowers and the Lenders. Within five
(5) Business Days after its receipt of such notice, the Co-Borrowers, at their
own expense, will execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent in exchange
for the surrendered Note or Notes a new Note or Notes to the order of such
Assignee in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the
Commitment (or, if the Commitments have been terminated, the principal amount of
the Loans) assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and, to the
extent the assigning Lender has retained its Loans and/or Commitment hereunder,
a new Note or Notes to the order of the assigning Lender in an aggregate
principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Commitment (or, if the
Commitments have been terminated, the principal amount of the Loans) retained by
it hereunder. Such new Note or Notes shall be dated the date of the replaced
Note or Notes and shall otherwise be in substantially the forms of the Notes
attached hereto. The Administrative Agent will return canceled Notes to the
Co-Borrowers.

         (d) Each Lender may, without the consent of the Co-Borrowers, the
Administrative Agent or any other Lender, sell to one or more other Persons
(each, a "Participant") participations in any portion comprising less than all
of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without
limitation, a portion of its Commitment, the outstanding Loans made by it and
the Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender's
obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged and such Lender shall
remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, (ii) any such
participation shall not exceed fifty percent (50%) of such Lender's post
assignment Commitment, (iii) the Co-Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the
other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in
connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, and
no Lender shall permit any Participant to have any voting rights or any right to
control the vote of such Lender with respect to any amendment, modification,
waiver, consent or other action hereunder or under any other Loan Document
(except as to actions that would (w) reduce or forgive the principal amount of,
or rate of interest on, any Loan, or reduce or forgive any fees or other
Obligations, (x) extend any date (including without limitation, the Revolver
Facility Termination Date) fixed for the payment of any principal of or interest
on any Loan, any fees or any other Obligations, or (y) increase any Commitment
of any Lender), and (iv) no Participant shall have any rights under this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, each Participant's rights against
the granting Lender in respect of any participation to be those set forth in the
participation agreement, and all amounts payable by the Co-Borrowers hereunder
shall be determined as if such Lender had not granted such participation.



                                      -76-
<PAGE>   83

         (e) Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prohibit any Lender
from pledging or assigning all or any portion of its rights and interest
hereunder or under any Note to any Federal Reserve Bank as security for
borrowings therefrom; provided, however, that no such pledge or assignment shall
release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder.

         (f) Disclosure of Information; Confidentiality. The Administrative
Agent and the Lenders shall treat as confidential all non-public information,
including, without limitation, all financial projections, obtained pursuant to
the Loan Documents and shall disclose such information outside their
organizations only as may be deemed appropriate by any of the Administrative
Agent or the Lenders in the exercise of its or their rights under the Loan
Documents with respect to the repayment or administration of, or transfer or
assignment of participations or interests in, the Loans or, to the extent
permitted by Applicable Law, upon reasonable prior notice to the Co-Borrowers,
as compelled by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of
Applicable Law.

         SECTION 12.10 Amendments, Waivers and Consents: Renewal. Except as set
forth below, any term, covenant, agreement or condition of this Agreement or any
of the other Loan Documents may be amended or waived by the Lenders upon request
of the Co-Borrowers, and any consent given by the Lenders in response to a
request by the Co-Borrowers, if, but only if, such amendment, waiver or consent
is in writing signed by the Required Lenders (or by the Administrative Agent
with the consent of the Required Lenders) and delivered to the Administrative
Agent and, in the case of an amendment, signed by the Co-Borrowers; provided,
that no amendment, waiver or consent shall (a) increase the amount or extend the
time of the obligation of the Lenders to make Loans, (b) extend the originally
scheduled time or times of payment of the principal of any Loan or the time or
times of payment of interest on any Loan, (c) reduce the rate of interest or
fees payable on any Loan, (d) permit any subordination of the principal or
interest on any Loan, (e) amend the provisions of this Section 12.10 or the
definition of Required Lenders, (f) increase the Swingline Commitment, the
Aggregate Commitment, or the Aggregate Revolver Loan Commitments, or (g) release
any Guarantor or amend the provisions of Section 7.12 (but with a waiver of, or
consent to departure from, the provisions of Section 7.12 as it pertains to any
Material Subsidiary not organized under the laws of one of the United States to
require only the approval of the Required Lenders) , without the prior written
consent of each Lender bound thereby. In addition, no amendment, waiver or
consent to the provisions of Article XI shall be made without the written
consent of the Administrative Agent.

         SECTION 12.11 Performance of Duties. The Co-Borrowers' obligations
under this Agreement and each of the Loan Documents shall be performed at the
joint and several sole cost and expense of the Co-Borrowers.

         SECTION 12.12  Indemnification.

         (a) Each Co-Borrower jointly and severally agrees to reimburse the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders for all reasonable costs and expenses,
including reasonable counsel or other out-of-pocket fees and disbursements
reasonably incurred, and the Co-Borrowers hereby indemnify and hold the
Administrative Agent and each Lender (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties"
and individually, an "Indemnified Party") harmless from and against all losses
suffered by the



                                      -77-
<PAGE>   84

Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with (i) the exercise by the
Administrative Agent or the Lenders, after the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, of any remedy granted to them by
Co-Borrowers under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, (ii) any
claim by any third party against the Administrative Agent or any Lender arising
out of or in any way connected with the acts or omissions of the Co-Borrowers or
any Subsidiary thereof under or pursuant to this Agreement or any of the other
Loan Documents, and (iii) the collection or enforcement of the Obligations or
any of them against the Co-Borrowers, after the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default; provided, that no reimbursement obligation
or undertaking to indemnify contained herein shall apply (A) to any expenses
that are attributable to any issue raised in any litigation or other proceeding
with respect to which the Co-Borrowers shall have prevailed (the determination,
if necessary, of which party shall have prevailed may be made by the court or
arbitration panel in the trial or appeal of such action or other proceeding), or
(B) to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or other
expenses result from the breach by any Indemnified Party of its obligations
hereunder or under any Loan Document, the violation of Applicable Law, gross
negligence or willful misconduct of any Indemnified Party.

         (b) The following shall apply to all claims for indemnity under this
Section 12.12 or otherwise under the Loan Documents:

                  (i) If any Indemnified Party has knowledge of any claim or
matter for which it believes it is entitled to indemnification hereunder, it
shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Co-Borrowers; provided, however,
that the failure of an Indemnified Party to give such notice shall not relieve
the Co- Borrowers of its obligations hereunder.

                  (ii) Each claim against an Indemnified Party by a third party
shall, if reasonably requested by the Co-Borrowers, be contested by the
Indemnified Party in good faith by appropriate proceedings, provided that the
Co-Borrowers shall indemnify such Indemnified Party in full in respect of any
out-of-pocket fees, costs or expenses actually incurred by such Indemnified
Party in conducting such contest and the amount of any interest or penalties, if
any, which are required to be paid as a direct result of contesting such claim.

                  (iii) In connection with any litigation or other proceeding
between the Co-Borrowers and the Lenders, the Co-Borrowers shall not be
obligated to pay any expenses or costs of the Lenders (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) that are attributable to
any issue raised in such litigation or other proceeding with respect to which
the Co-Borrowers shall have prevailed (the determination, if necessary, of which
party shall have prevailed may be made by the court or arbitration panel in the
trial or appeal of such action or other proceeding).

         SECTION 12.13 All Powers Coupled with Interest. All powers of attorney
and other authorizations granted to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and
any Persons designated by the Administrative Agent or such Lenders pursuant to
any provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be
deemed coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable so long as any of the
Obligations remain unpaid or unsatisfied or the Credit Facility have not been
terminated.



                                      -78-
<PAGE>   85

         SECTION 12.14 Survival of Indemnities. Notwithstanding any termination
of this Agreement, the indemnities to which the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders are entitled under the provisions of this Article XII and any other
provision of this Agreement and the Loan Documents shall continue in full force
and effect and shall protect the Administrative Agent and the Lenders against
events arising after such termination as well as before.

         SECTION 12.15 Titles and Captions. Titles and captions of Articles,
Sections and subsections in this Agreement are for convenience only, and neither
limit nor amplify the provisions of this Agreement.

         SECTION 12.16 Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document which is prohibited or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective only to the extent
of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remainder of
such provision or the remaining provisions hereof or thereof or affecting the
validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

         SECTION 12.17 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any
number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts,
each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and shall be
binding upon all parties, their successors and assigns, and all of which taken
together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

         SECTION 12.18 Term of Agreement. This Agreement shall remain in effect
from the Closing Date through and including the date upon which all Obligations
shall have been indefeasibly and irrevocably paid and satisfied in full and the
Commitments have been terminated. No termination of this Agreement shall affect
the rights and obligations of the parties hereto arising prior to such
termination.

         SECTION 12.19 Provisions Regarding the Euro.

                  (a) Definitions. As used in this Section 12.19, the following
         terms have the following meanings:

                           "beginning of the third stage of EMU" means the date
                  the third stage of EMU began or the date on which
                  circumstances arise which, in the reasonable, good faith
                  opinion of the Administrative Agent, have substantially the
                  same effect and result in substantially the same consequences
                  as the beginning of the third stage of EMU as contemplated by
                  the Treaty on European Union.

                           "EMU" means economic and monetary union as
                  contemplated in the Treaty on European Union.

                           "EMU legislation" means legislative measures of the
                  European Council for the introduction of change over to or
                  operation of a single or unified European currency (whether
                  known



                                      -79-
<PAGE>   86

                  as the euro or otherwise), being in part the implementation of
                  the third stage of EMU;

                           "euro" means the single currency to which
                  participating member states of the European Union are
                  converting;

                           "euro unit" means the currency unit of the euro;

                           "fixed exchange rate" means the exchange rate for a
                  national currency unit into a euro unit set in accordance with
                  EMU legislation in effect from time to time.

                           "national currency unit" means the unit of currency
                  (other than a euro unit) of a participating member state.

                           "participating member state" means each state so
                  described in any EMU legislation.

                           "Treaty on European Union" means the treaty of Rome
                  of March 25, 1957, as amended by the Single European Act 1986
                  and the Maastricht Treaty (signed February 7, 1992) as amended
                  from time to time.

                  (b) Effectiveness of Provisions. The provisions of clauses (c)
         to (l) below, inclusive, shall be effective on the later of the date of
         this Agreement or the beginning of the third stage of EMU, provided,
         that if and to the extent that any such provision relates to any state
         (or the currency of such state) that is not a participating member
         state on the beginning of the third stage of EMU, such provision shall
         become effective in relation to such state (and the currency of such
         state) at and from the date on which such state becomes a participating
         member state.

                  (c) Continuity of Contract. The parties to this Agreement
         agree that the occurrence or non-occurrence of EMU, any event or events
         associated with the EMU and/or the introduction of the euro in all or
         any part of the European Union will not result in the discharge,
         cancellation, rescission or termination in whole or in part of any
         agreement between any of the parties hereto or give the Administrative
         Agent, the Lenders or the Co-Borrowers the right to cancel, rescind,
         terminate or vary any agreement, other than as specifically provided in
         this Agreement.

                  (d) Redenomination and Alternative Currencies. If and to the
         extent that any EMU legislation provides that following the beginning
         of the third stage of EMU an amount denominated either in the euro unit
         or in the national currency unit of a member state and payable within
         the member state by crediting an account of a creditor can be paid by a
         debtor either in the euro



                                      -80-
<PAGE>   87

         unit or in that national currency unit, each party to this Agreement
         shall be entitled, subject to clause (e) below, to pay or repay any
         such amount either in the euro unit or in such national currency unit;
         provided, however, any amount paid in a national currency unit shall
         equal, at the fixed exchange rate for that national currency unit, the
         required amount stated to be due in euro units.

                  (e) Loans. Any Loan in the currency of a participating member
         state shall be made in the euro unit, provided that any Loan may, if so
         requested by any Co-Borrower, be made in the national currency unit
         (based upon the fixed exchange rate) of any participating member state
         so long as such national currency unit continues to be available as
         legal tender for obligations of the same type or character as the
         obligations set forth in this Agreement.

                  (f) Payments to the Administrative Agent. Those Sections of
         this Agreement providing for payment or repayment in a national
         currency unit shall be construed so that, in relation to the payment of
         any amount of euro units or national currency units, such amount shall
         be made available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available
         funds at the Euro Lending Office.

                  (g) Payment by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders. Any
         amount payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders under this
         Agreement in the national currency unit of a participating member state
         shall be paid in the currency received by it from the Co-Borrowers.

                  (h) Payments by the Administrative Agent Generally. This
         clause (h) is not intended to, and does not, modify the provisions of
         Section 3.4(a) of this Agreement to the extent that such provisions
         relate to the place, date and time for payment of any amounts under
         this Agreement. With respect to the payment of any amount denominated
         in the euro unit or in a national currency unit, the Administrative
         Agent shall not be liable to the Co-Borrowers or any of the Lenders in
         any way whatsoever for any delay, or the consequences of any delay, in
         the crediting to any account of any amount required by this Agreement
         to be paid by the Administrative Agent if the Administrative Agent has
         made reasonable effort to effect all relevant steps to achieve, on the
         date required by the Agreement, the payment of such amount in
         immediately available funds (in the euro unit or, as the case may be,
         in a national currency unit) to the applicable Euro Lending Office or
         the account with the bank in the principal financial center in the
         participating member state which any Co-Borrower or, as the case may
         be, any Lender shall have specified for such purpose. In this
         paragraph, "all relevant steps" means all such steps as may be
         prescribed from time to time by the regulations or operating procedures
         of such clearing or settlement system as the Administrative Agent may
         from time to time reasonably believe to be in effect for the purpose of
         clearing or settling payment of the euro.

                  (i) Basis of Accrual. If the basis of accrual of interest
         (such as IBOR) or fees expressed in this Agreement with respect to the
         currency of any state that becomes a participating member state, in the
         Administrative Agent's reasonable, good faith judgment, shall not be
         available because interest rate quotes for a national currency unit are
         no longer provided, or shall be inconsistent with any convention or
         practice in the London interbank market for the basis of accrual of
         interest or fees in respect of the euro, such convention or



                                      -81-
<PAGE>   88

         practice shall replace such expressed basis effective as of and from
         the date on which such state becomes a participating member state;
         provided, however, if any Loan in the currency of such state is
         outstanding immediately prior to such date, such replacement shall take
         effect, with respect to such Loan, at the end of the then current
         Interest Period.

                  (j) Rounding and Other Consequential Changes. Without
         prejudice and in addition to any method of conversion or rounding
         prescribed by any EMU legislation and without prejudice to the
         respective liabilities for indebtedness of the Co-Borrowers to the
         Administrative Agent and to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent
         and the Lenders to the Co-Borrowers under or pursuant to this
         Agreement:

                           (i) each reference in this Agreement to a minimum
                           amount (or an integral multiple thereof) in a
                           national currency unit to be paid to or by the
                           Administrative Agent or Lenders shall be replaced by
                           a reference to such reasonably comparable amount (or
                           an integral multiple thereof) in the euro unit as the
                           Administrative Agent may from time to time specify;
                           and

                           (ii) each Co-Borrower hereby agrees to make, execute
                           and deliver all such additional and further acts and
                           instruments (including amendments hereto) as the
                           Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably
                           request as necessary or appropriate to reflect the
                           implementation of the EMU and to place the parties
                           hereto in substantially the position they would have
                           occupied had the EMU not been implemented.

                  (k) Exchange Indemnification and Increased Costs. Each
         Co-Borrower shall upon demand from the Administrative Agent, pay to the
         Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the amount of (i)
         any loss or cost or increased cost incurred by the Administrative Agent
         or such Lender in respect of any Loans made hereunder as a result of
         the election by the Co-Borrowers to borrow in national currency units
         and repay in euro units or to borrow in euro units and repay in
         national currency units, (ii) any reduction in any amount payable to,
         or in the effective return on its capital to, the Administrative Agent
         or such Lender in respect of any Loans made hereunder as a result of
         the election of the Co-Borrowers to borrow in national currency units
         and repay in euro units or to borrow in euro units and repay in
         national currency units, or (iii) any currency exchange loss that the
         Administrative Agent or such Lender sustains in respect of any Loans
         made hereunder as a result of the election by the Co-Borrowers to
         borrow in national currency units and repay in euro units or to borrow
         in euro units and repay in national currency units.

                  (l) Further Assurance. Each Co-Borrower agrees, at the request
         of the Administrative Agent, at the time of or at any time following
         the implementation of the EMU, to enter into an agreement amending this
         Agreement in such manner as the Administrative Agent reasonably shall
         request in order to reflect the implementation of the EMU to place the
         parties hereto in the position they would have been in had the EMU not
         been implemented.
