Obligations of one or more classes may from time to time hereafter enter into

take any other action available to it in respect of, any Junior Obligations
Collateral under any Junior Obligations Security Document, applicable law or
otherwise, at any time when such Junior Obligations Collateral shall be subject
to any Senior Lien and prior to the Discharge of Senior Obligations, it being
agreed that only the applicable Senior Collateral Agent, acting in accordance
with the applicable Senior Obligations Security Documents, shall be entitled to
take any such actions or exercise any such remedies. Notwithstanding the
foregoing or anything to the contrary provided in Section 2.06, any Junior
Collateral Agent may, subject to Section 2.05, (i) take all such actions as it
shall deem necessary to continue the perfection of the Junior Liens on any
Junior Obligations Collateral, (ii) file a claim or statement of interest with

Junior Obligations Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that no Senior
Collateral Agent or other Senior Obligations Secured Party shall have any duties
or other obligations to such Junior Obligations Secured Party with respect to
any Senior Obligations Collateral, other than to transfer to the Junior
Collateral Agents any proceeds of any such Collateral that constitutes Junior
Obligations Collateral remaining in its possession following any sale, transfer
or other disposition of such Collateral and the Discharge of Senior Obligations,
or, if any Senior Collateral Agent shall be in possession of all or any part of
such Collateral after the Discharge of Senior Obligations, such Collateral or
any part thereof remaining, in each case without representation or warranty on
the part of such Senior Collateral Agent or any Senior Obligations Secured Party
(it being understood that nothing herein shall prohibit any Senior Collateral
Agent from transferring Collateral or proceeds of Collateral to the holders of
other Senior Obligations secured by such Collateral or to another Senior
Collateral Agent acting on their behalf to the extent it is required to do so
under the terms of any agreement). In furtherance of the foregoing, each Junior
Obligations Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that until the Discharge of
Senior Obligations, the applicable Senior Collateral Agents shall be entitled,
for the benefit of the holders of such Senior Obligations, to sell, transfer or
otherwise dispose of or deal with such Collateral as provided herein and in the
Credit Facilities Security Documents or the Designated Senior Obligations
Security Documents, as the case may be, without regard to any Junior Lien or any
rights to which the holders of the Junior Obligations would otherwise be
entitled as a result of such Junior Lien. Without limiting the foregoing, each
Junior Obligations Secured Party agrees that no Senior Collateral Agent or other
Senior Obligations Secured Party shall have any duty or obligation first to
marshall or realize upon any type of Collateral (or any other collateral
securing the Senior Obligations), or to sell, dispose of or otherwise liquidate
all or any portion of the Collateral (or any other collateral securing the
Senior Obligations), in any manner that would maximize the return to the Junior
Obligations Secured Parties, notwithstanding that the order and timing of any
such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation may

                                                                              10

affect the amount of proceeds actually received by the Junior Obligations
Secured Parties from such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation. Each of
the Junior Obligations Secured Parties waives any claim such Junior Obligations
Secured Party may now or hereafter have against any Senior Collateral Agent or
other Senior Obligations Secured Party (or their representatives) arising out of
(i) any actions which any Senior Collateral Agent or the Senior Obligations
Secured Parties take or omit to take (including, without limitation, actions
with respect to the creation, perfection or continuation of Liens on any
Collateral, actions with respect to the foreclosure upon, sale, release or
depreciation of, or failure to realize upon, any of the Collateral and actions
with respect to the collection of any claim for all or any part of the Senior
Obligations from any account debtor, guarantor or any other party) in accordance
with the respective Senior Obligations Security Documents or any other agreement
related thereto or to the collection of the Senior Obligations or the valuation,
use, protection or release of any security for the Senior Obligations, (ii) any
election by any Senior Collateral Agent or Senior Obligations Secured Parties,
in any proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of
Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code and/or (iii) any borrowing of any
Grantor as debtor-in-possession, or any related grant of a security interest or
administrative expense priority under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code.

                  SECTION 2.04. No Interference; Payment Over; Reinstatement.
(a) Each Junior Obligations Secured Party agrees that (i) it will not take or
cause to be taken any action the purpose or effect of which is, or could be, to
make any Junior Lien pari passu with, or to give such Junior Obligations Secured
Party any preference or priority relative to, any Senior Lien with respect to
the Collateral subject to such Junior Lien or any part thereof, (ii) it will not
challenge or question in any proceeding the validity or enforceability of any
Senior Obligations or Senior Obligations Security Document, or the validity,
attachment, perfection or priority of any Senior Lien, or the validity or
enforceability of the priorities, rights or duties established by or other
provisions of this Agreement, (iii) it will not interfere, hinder or delay, in
any manner, whether by judicial proceedings or otherwise, any sale, transfer or
other disposition of the Collateral subject to such Junior Lien by any holders
of Senior Obligations secured by such Collateral or any Senior Collateral Agent
acting on their behalf, (iv) it shall have no right to (A) direct any Senior
Collateral Agent or any holder of Senior Obligations to exercise any right,
remedy or power with respect to the Collateral subject to any Junior Lien or (B)
consent to the exercise by any Senior Collateral Agent or any holder of Senior
Obligations of any right, remedy or power with respect to the Collateral subject
to any Junior Lien, (v) it will not institute any suit or assert in any suit,
bankruptcy, insolvency or other proceeding any claim against any Senior
Collateral Agent or any holder of Senior Obligations seeking damages from or
other relief by way of specific performance, instructions or otherwise with
respect to, and neither any Senior Collateral Agent nor any holder of Senior
Obligations shall be liable for, any action taken or omitted to be taken by such
Senior Collateral Agent or any such holder of Senior Obligations with respect to
any Collateral securing such Senior Obligations that is subject to any Junior
Lien, (vi) it will not seek, and hereby waives any right, to have any Senior
Obligations Collateral subject to any Junior Lien or any part thereof marshaled
upon any foreclosure or other disposition of such Collateral and (vii) it will
not attempt, directly or indirectly, whether by judicial

                                                                              11

proceedings or otherwise, to challenge the enforceability of any provision of
this Agreement.

                  (b) Each Junior Collateral Agent and each other Junior
Obligations Secured Party hereby agrees that if it shall obtain possession of
any Senior Obligations Collateral, or shall realize any proceeds or payment in
respect of any such Collateral, whether pursuant to any Junior Obligations
Security Document or by the exercise of any rights available to it under
applicable law or in any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding or
otherwise, at any time prior to the Discharge of Senior Obligations, then it
shall hold such Collateral, proceeds or payment in trust for the applicable
Senior Obligations Secured Parties and transfer such Collateral, proceeds or
payment, as the case may be, to the applicable Senior Collateral Agent. Each
Junior Obligations Secured Party agrees that if, at any time, all or part of any
payment with respect to any Senior Obligations previously made shall be
rescinded for any reason whatsoever, such Junior Obligations Secured Party shall
promptly pay over to the applicable Senior Collateral Agent any payment received
by it in respect of any Collateral subject to any Senior Lien securing such
Senior Obligations and shall promptly turn any Collateral subject to any such
Senior Lien then held by it over to the applicable Senior Collateral Agent, and
the provisions set forth in this Agreement shall be reinstated as if such
payment had not been made, until the Discharge of Senior Obligations.

                  SECTION 2.05. Automatic Release of Junior Liens. Each Junior
Collateral Agent and each other Junior Obligations Secured Party agrees that, in
the event of a sale, transfer or other disposition of Senior Obligations
Collateral subject to any Junior Lien (until the Note Obligations have been paid
in full in cash, to a person or entity that is not the Company or a Restricted
Subsidiary (as defined in the Note Indenture as in effect on the date hereof)
or, in the case of a sale of accounts receivable or inventory in a
Securitization (as defined in the Note Indenture as in effect on the date
hereof), to any Securitization Vehicle (as defined in the Note Indenture as in
effect on the date hereof) whether or not it is a subsidiary of the Company),
such Junior Lien on such Collateral shall terminate and be released
automatically and without further action if the applicable Senior Liens on such
Collateral are released. Each Junior Collateral Agent agrees to execute and
deliver all such releases and other instruments as shall reasonably be requested
by any applicable Senior Collateral Agent to evidence and confirm any release of
Junior Obligations Collateral provided for in this Section.

                  SECTION 2.06. Certain Agreements With Respect to Bankruptcy or
Insolvency Proceedings. In the event a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or
any other Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or
similar law shall be commenced by or against any Grantor, each Junior Collateral
Agent and the other Junior Obligations Secured Parties shall not, prior to the
Discharge of Senior Obligations, (a) seek in respect of any part of the
Collateral or proceeds thereof or any Lien which may exist thereon any relief
from or modification of the automatic stay as provided in Section 362 of the
Bankruptcy Code or seek or accept any form of adequate protection under either
or both Sections 362 and 363 of the Bankruptcy Code with respect thereto except
replacement liens junior to the Senior Liens and the accrual (but not the
current payment) of interest and the current payment of out-of-pocket expenses,
including fees and

                                                                              12

disbursements of counsel and other professional advisors, incurred by the Junior
Collateral Agents (which the Junior Obligations Secured Parties agree will
constitute adequate protection of their claims and interests), (b) oppose or
object to any adequate protection sought by or granted to any Senior Obligations
Secured Party in connection with the use of cash collateral or post-petition
financing under Section 362, 363 or 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, (c) oppose or
object to the use of cash collateral by a Grantor, (d) oppose or object to any
post-petition financing (including any debtor-in-possession financing) provided
by any of the Senior Obligations Secured Parties or provided by a third party
pursuant to Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code (including on a priming basis),
(e) oppose or object to or withhold consent from the disposition of assets by
any Grantor under Section 363(b) or (f) of the Bankruptcy Code, (f) oppose,
object to, or vote against any plan of reorganization or disclosure statement
the terms of which are consistent with the rights of the Senior Obligations
Secured Parties under the Senior Obligations Security Documents and the rights
of the Senior Obligations Secured Parties and the Junior Obligations Secured
Parties under this Agreement, (g) make an election pursuant to Section 1111(b)
of the Bankruptcy Code or oppose any election pursuant to Section 1111(b) by
any Senior Obligations Secured Parties, (h) oppose or object to the
determination of the extent of any Liens held by any of the Senior Obligations
Secured Parties or the value of any claims of Senior Obligations Secured Parties
under Section 506(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, or (i) oppose or object to the
payment of interest and expenses as provided under Sections 506(b) and (c) of
the Bankruptcy Code to any Senior Obligations Secured Parties. In any proceeding
described in this Section, until the Discharge of Senior Obligations, each
Junior Obligations Secured Party hereby authorizes and empowers (without
imposing an obligation on) the holders of such Senior Obligations or any Senior
Collateral Agent or other Representative acting on their behalf to vote such
Junior Obligations Secured Party's share of the Junior Obligations secured by
such Junior Lien, insofar as any such voting right arises from or relates to
such Junior Lien or to the Collateral subject thereto, in connection with any
resolution, arrangement, plan of reorganization, compromise or settlement
relating to such Collateral, so long as the proposal is consistent with the
rights of the Senior Obligations Secured Parties under the Senior Obligations
Security Documents and the rights of the Senior Obligations Secured Parties and
the Junior Obligations Secured Parties under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, any Junior Collateral Agent may take the actions contemplated by the
last sentence of Section 2.02 hereof.

                  SECTION 2.07. Reinstatement. In the event that any of the
Senior Obligations shall be paid in full and such payment or any part thereof
shall subsequently, for whatever reason (including, but not limited to, an order
or judgment for disgorgement of a preference under Title 11 of the United Stated
Code, or any similar law, or the settlement of any claim in respect thereof), be
required to be returned or repaid, the terms and conditions of this Article II
shall be fully applicable thereto until all such Senior Obligations shall again
have been paid in full in cash.

                                   ARTICLE III

         Designated Senior Obligations and Designated Junior Obligations

                  SECTION 3.01. Designation. The Company may from time to time,
subject to any limitations contained in the Credit Agreements, any then existing
Designated Senior Obligations Governing Documents, the Note Indenture and any
then existing Designated Junior Obligations Governing Documents, designate
additional obligations that are, or are to be, secured by Liens on any assets or
properties of the Company, Farmland Feed or any subsidiaries of the Company or
Farmland Feed as Designated Senior Obligations or Designated Junior Obligations
by delivering to each Collateral Agent a notice:

                  (i) describing the obligations being designated as Designated
Senior Obligations or Designated Junior Obligations, and including a statement
of the maximum aggregate outstanding principal amount of such obligations;

                  (ii) listing the Designated Senior Obligations Governing
Documents or Designated Junior Obligations Governing Documents under which such
Designated Senior Obligations or Designated Junior Obligations are issued or
incurred and the Designated Senior Obligations Security Documents or Designated
Junior Obligations Security Documents securing such Designated Senior
Obligations or Designated Junior Obligations, and attaching copies of such
Designated Senior Obligations Governing Documents and Designated Senior
Obligations Security Documents or such Designated Junior Obligations Governing
Documents and Designated Junior Obligations Security Documents;

                  (iii) identifying the Designated Senior Obligations Collateral
Agent or Designated Junior Obligations Collateral Agent with respect to such
Designated Senior Obligations or Designated Junior Obligations, and any other
Representative of the holders of such Designated Senior Obligations or
Designated Junior Obligations;

                  (iv) certifying that the incurrence of such Designated Senior
Obligations or Designated Junior Obligations, the creation of the Liens securing
such Designated Senior Obligations or Designated Junior Obligations and the
designation of such Designated Senior Obligations or Designated Junior
Obligations as Designated Senior Obligations or Designated Junior Obligations
hereunder do not violate or result in a default under any provision of any
Credit Agreement, any then existing Designated Senior Obligations Governing
Document, the Note Indenture or any then existing Designated Junior Obligations
Governing Document;

                  (v) certifying that the Designated Senior Obligations
Governing Document or Designated Junior Obligations Governing Document governing
such Designated Senior Obligations or Designated Junior Obligations contains
provisions under which the related Designated Senior Obligations Secured Parties
or Designated Junior Obligations Secured Parties agree, or are deemed to agree,
to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement (which provisions, in the case
of any Designated Junior

<PAGE>

                                                                              14

Obligations Governing Document, shall be substantially to the effect set forth
in Annex II hereto); and

                  (vi) attaching a fully executed Accession Agreement under
which the Designated Senior Obligations Collateral Agent or Designated Junior
Obligations Collateral Agent with respect to such Designated Senior Obligations
or Designated Junior Obligations shall become a party to and a Collateral Agent
under this Agreement (unless such Designated Senior Obligations Collateral Agent
or Designated Junior Obligations Collateral Agent shall already be a party
hereto).

Upon the delivery of such notice and the related attachments as provided above,
the obligations designated in such notice shall become Designated Senior
Obligations or Designated Junior Obligations, as the case may be, for all
purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision contained in
this Section or elsewhere in this Agreement, no obligation shall constitute a
Designated Senior Obligation if the incurrence of such obligation, the creation
of the Liens securing such obligation or the designation of such obligation as a
Designated Senior Obligation hereunder would violate or result in a default
under any provision of any Credit Agreement, any existing Designated Senior
Obligations Governing Document, the Note Indenture or any existing Designated
Junior Obligations Governing Document.

                                   ARTICLE IV

             Sub-Agency for Perfection of Certain Security Interests

                  Each Senior Collateral Agent agrees that if it shall at any
time hold a Senior Lien on any Junior Obligations Collateral that can be
perfected by the possession or control of such Collateral or of any account in
which such Collateral is held, and if such Collateral or any such account is in
fact in the possession or under the control of such Senior Collateral Agent,
such Senior Collateral Agent will serve as sub-agent for each Junior Collateral
Agent for the sole purpose of perfecting the Junior Lien of such Junior
Collateral Agent in such Collateral. It is agreed that the obligations of the
applicable Senior Collateral Agent and the rights of the Junior Collateral
Agents and the other Junior Secured Parties in connection with any such
sub-agency arrangement will be in all respects subject to the provisions of
Article II. The Senior Collateral Agent will be deemed to make no representation
as to the adequacy of the steps taken by it to perfect the Junior Lien on any
such Collateral and shall have no responsibility to any Junior Collateral Agent
or other Junior Secured Party for such perfection, it being understood that the
sole purpose of this Article is to enable the Junior Secured Parties to obtain a
perfected Junior Lien in such Collateral to the extent, if any, that such
perfection results from the possession or control of such Collateral or any such
account by the Senior Collateral Agent. Upon the Discharge of Senior Obligations
with respect to Senior Obligations secured by the Senior Lien of any Senior
Collateral Agent, such Senior Collateral Agent shall take all such actions in
its power as shall reasonably be requested by the applicable Junior Collateral
Agents to transfer possession or control of such Collateral or any such account
to the Junior Collateral Agents; provided, that if any such Collateral or any
such account shall be subject to any other Senior Lien, then such Senior

<PAGE>

                                                                              15

Collateral Agent shall instead transfer such possession or control of such
Collateral or such account to the Senior Collateral Agent holding such Senior
Lien. Each Junior Collateral Agent agrees that if it shall obtain possession or
control of any Collateral or any account pursuant to the foregoing provisions
and such Collateral or account shall thereafter become subject to any Senior
Lien, it will take all such actions in its power as shall reasonably be
requested by the Senior Collateral Agent holding such Senior Lien to transfer
possession or control of such Collateral or such account to such Senior
Collateral Agent.

                                    ARTICLE V

                 Existence and Amounts of Liens and Obligations

                  Whenever any Collateral Agent shall be required, in connection
with the exercise of its rights or the performance of its obligations hereunder,
to determine the existence or amount of any Senior Obligations or Junior
Obligations, or the existence of any Lien securing any such obligations, or the
Collateral subject to any such Lien, it may request that such information be
furnished to it in writing by the Representative of such Senior Obligations or
Junior Obligations and shall be entitled to make such determination on the basis
of the information so furnished; provided, however, that if, notwithstanding the
request of such Collateral Agent, such Representative shall fail or refuse
reasonably promptly to provide the requested information, such Collateral Agent
shall be entitled to determine such existence or amount by such method as it
may, in the exercise of its good faith judgment, determine, including by
reliance upon a certificate of the Company. Each Collateral Agent may rely
conclusively, and shall be fully protected in so relying, on any determination
made by it in accordance with the provisions of the preceding sentence (or as
otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction) and shall have no
liability to the Company or any of its subsidiaries, any Secured Party or any
other person as a result of such determination.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                              Consent of Grantors

                  Each Grantor hereby consents to the provisions of this
Agreement and the intercreditor arrangements provided for herein and agrees (a)
that no Collateral Agent or other Secured Party shall have any liability to any
Grantor as a result of the performance of its obligations hereunder and (b) that
the obligations of the Grantors under the Senior Obligations Security Documents
will in no way be diminished or otherwise affected by the provisions or
arrangements provided for herein. Each Grantor also hereby confirms its
respective guarantees, pledges and grants of security interests, as applicable,
under each of the Credit Facilities Security Documents to which it is a party,
and agrees that, notwithstanding the effectiveness of the Note Security
Documents, such guarantees, pledges and grants of security interests shall
continue to be in full force and effect and shall accrue to the benefit of the
Credit Facilities Secured Parties.

                         Representations and Warranties

                  SECTION 7.01. Representations and Warranties of Each Party.
Each party hereto represents and warrants to the other parties hereto as
follows:

                  (a) Such party is duly organized, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and has all
requisite power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under
this Agreement.

                  (b) This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by
such party and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such party,
enforceable in accordance with its terms.

                  (c) The execution, delivery and performance by such party of
this Agreement (i) do not require any consent or approval of, registration or
filing with or any other action by any governmental authority and (ii) will not
violate any applicable law or regulation or the charter, by-laws or other
organizational documents of such party or any order of any governmental
authority or any indenture, agreement or other instrument binding upon such
party.

                  SECTION 7.02. Representations and Warranties of Each
Collateral Agent. Each Collateral Agent represents and warrants to the other
parties hereto that it has been authorized by the Secured Parties for which it
serves as collateral agent (or, in the case of the Credit Facilities Collateral
Agent, by the Required Lenders under and as defined in each Credit Agreement) to
enter into this Agreement.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                                  Miscellaneous

All notices and other communications given to any party hereto in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given on the
date of receipt.

                  SECTION 8.02. Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay on
the part of any party hereto in exercising any right or power hereunder shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any
such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce
such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the parties
hereto are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they
would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to
any departure by any party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the
same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver
or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose
for which given. No notice or demand on any party hereto in any case shall
entitle such party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other
circumstances.

                  (b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be
waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in
writing entered into by each Collateral Agent and the Company.

                  SECTION 8.03. Parties in Interest. This Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto (including any
Designated Senior Obligations Collateral Agents or Designated Junior Obligations
Collateral Agents becoming parties hereto as provided in Section 8.04) and their
respective successors and assigns, as well as the other Credit Facilities
Secured Parties, Note Secured Parties, Designated Senior Obligations Secured

execution and delivery by the collateral agent or similar Representative of any
Designated Senior Obligations or Designated Junior Obligations of an Accession

shall become a party to this Agreement as the Designated Senior Obligations
Collateral Agent for such Designated Senior Obligations or the Designated Junior
Obligations Collateral Agent for such Designated

                                                                              18

Junior Obligations, as the case may be, and shall thenceforth have all the
rights and obligations applicable to it in such capacity hereunder.

                  SECTION 8.05. Survival of Agreement. All covenants,
agreements, representations and warranties made by any party in this Agreement
shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and
shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

                  SECTION 8.06. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in
counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when
taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed
signature page to this Agreement by facsimile transmission shall be as effective
as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement.

                  SECTION 8.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement
held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to
such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality
or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability
of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision
in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other
jurisdiction. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace
the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the
economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid,
illegal or unenforceable provisions.

                  SECTION 8.08. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service
of Process, (a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and
governed by the law of the State of New York.

                  (b) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the
Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the
United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any
appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or
relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment,
and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees
that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and
determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such
Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any
such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other
jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.
Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any party hereto may
otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement in
the courts of any jurisdiction.

                  (c) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any
objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit,
action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court
referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby
irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the

defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding
in any such court.

                  (d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to
