or financial accommodation of any kind whatsoever heretofore, now or hereafter

      Each Guarantor hereby agrees that this Guaranty is a present and
continuing guaranty of payment and not of collection and that its obligations
hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of (i) the validity or
enforceability of the Obligations or any part thereof, or of any of the
Financing Documents, (ii) the waiver or consent by Agent or any Lender with
respect to any provision of any Financing Document, or any amendment,
modification or other change with

<PAGE>

respect to any Financing Document, (iii) any merger or consolidation of any
Borrower, any Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or part of the Obligations
into or with any Person or any change in the ownership of the equity of any
Borrower, any Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or part of the
Obligations, (iv) any dissolution of any Guarantor or any insolvency,
bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization or similar proceedings with respect to
any Borrower, any Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or part of the
Obligations, (v) any action or inaction on the part of Agent or any Lender,
including without limitation the absence of any attempt to collect the

rights to, any security or collateral for the Obligations, (vi) Agent's
election, in any proceeding instituted under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the

release by Agent and/or Lenders of any Guarantor's obligations and liabilities
under this Guaranty, (xi) the discharge or release by Agent and/or Lenders of
any other guarantor's obligations and liabilities under any guaranty or (xii)
any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable
discharge or defense of any Borrower, any Guarantor or any other guarantor of
all or part of the Obligations other than a defense of payment and performance
in full in cash of all Obligations.

      Notwithstanding any provision of this Guaranty to the contrary, it is
intended that this Guaranty, and any Liens granted by any Guarantor to secure
the obligations and liabilities arising pursuant to this Guaranty, not
constitute a "FRAUDULENT CONVEYANCE" (as defined below). Consequently, each
Guarantor agrees that if this Guaranty, or any Liens securing the obligations
and liabilities arising pursuant to this Guaranty, would, but for the
application of this sentence, constitute a Fraudulent Conveyance, this Guaranty
and each such Lien shall be valid and enforceable only to the maximum extent
that would not cause this Guaranty or such Lien to constitute a Fraudulent
Conveyance, and this Guaranty shall automatically be deemed to have been amended
accordingly at all relevant times. For purposes hereof, "Fraudulent Conveyance"
means a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under Section 548 of the
Bankruptcy Code or a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under the
provisions of any applicable fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer law or
similar law of any state, nation or other governmental unit, as in effect from
time to time.

      No payment made by or for the account or benefit of any Guarantor
(including, without limitation, (i) a payment made by any Borrower in respect of
the Obligations, (ii) a payment made by any Person under any other guaranty of
the Obligations or (iii) a payment made by means of set-off or other application
of funds by Agent or any Lender) pursuant to this Guaranty shall entitle any
Guarantor, by subrogation or otherwise, to any payment by any Borrower or from
or out of any property of any Borrower, and no Guarantor shall exercise any
right or remedy against any Borrower or any property of any Borrower including,
without limitation, any

                                       2
<PAGE>

right of contribution or reimbursement by reason of any performance by any
Guarantor under this Guaranty, until the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid
in full in cash and the Credit Agreement has been terminated; provided that, any
of the foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, effective upon any sale,
registration, assignment or transfer of or foreclosure on, or any other
disposition or remedial action in respect of, any equity interests of any
Borrower or any other Subsidiary of any Guarantor or any Borrower by the Agent
or Lenders pursuant to the Financing Documents and/or applicable law, all such
rights and claims of subrogation, contribution, exoneration, reimbursement and
enforcement against the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries shall be, and hereby
are, forever extinguished and indefeasibly waived and released by each
Guarantor.

      Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment,
filing of claims with a court in the event of any bankruptcy proceeding (or
other insolvency proceeding) of any Borrower, protest or notice with respect to
the Obligations and all demands whatsoever, and covenants that this Guaranty
will not be discharged, except by complete and irrevocable payment and
performance of the obligations and liabilities contained herein. No notice to
the Guarantors or any other party shall be required for Agent, on behalf of
Agent or any Lender, to make demand hereunder. Such demand shall constitute a
mature and liquidated claim against Guarantors. Upon the occurrence and during
the continuance of any Event of Default, Agent may, at its sole election,
proceed directly and at once, without notice, against any Guarantor to collect
and recover the full amount or any portion of the Obligations, without first
proceeding against any Borrower, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor of the
Obligations, or any other Person or any security or collateral for the
Obligations. Agent shall have the exclusive right to determine the application
of payments and credits, if any, from any Guarantor, any Borrower, any other
Person, or any security or collateral for the Obligations, on account of the
Obligations or of any other liability of any Guarantor to Agent and Lenders
arising hereunder.

      Agent and Lenders are hereby authorized, without notice or demand to any
Guarantor and without affecting or impairing the liability of any Guarantor
hereunder, to, from time to time, (i) renew, extend, accelerate or otherwise
change the time for payment of, or other terms relating to, the Obligations or
otherwise modify, amend or change the terms of any Financing Document, (ii)
accept partial payments on the Obligations, (iii) take and hold collateral for
the payment of the Obligations, or for the payment of this Guaranty, or for the
payment of any other guaranties of the Obligations or other liabilities of any
Borrower, and exchange, enforce, waive and release any such collateral, (iv)
apply such collateral and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as in their
sole discretion they may determine and (v) settle, release, compromise, collect
or otherwise liquidate the Obligations and any collateral therefor in any
manner.

      At any time after maturity of the Obligations, Agent and Lenders may, in
their sole discretion, without notice to any Guarantor and regardless of the
acceptance of any collateral for the payment hereof, appropriate and apply
toward payment of the Obligations (i) any indebtedness due or to become due from
Agent or any Lender to any Guarantor and (ii) any moneys, credits or other
property belonging to any Guarantor at any time held by or coming into the
possession of Agent or any Lender or any Affiliates thereof, whether for deposit
or otherwise.

      Each Guarantor hereby assumes responsibility for keeping itself informed
of the financial condition of each Borrower, and any and all endorsers and other
guarantors of all or any part of the Obligations and of all other circumstances
bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations or any part thereof that
diligent inquiry would reveal, and each Guarantor hereby agrees that neither
Agent nor any Lender shall have any duty to advise any Guarantor of information
known to such Agent or Lender regarding such condition or any such
circumstances. Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges familiarity with each
Borrower's financial condition and that it has not relied on any statements by
Agent or any Lender in obtaining such information. In the event Agent or any
Lender, in its sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to
provide any such information to any Guarantor, neither Agent nor any Lender
shall be under any obligation (i) to undertake any investigation with respect
thereto, (ii) to disclose any information which, pursuant to accepted or
reasonable commercial finance practices, Agent or such Lender wishes to maintain
confidential or (iii) to make any other or future disclosures of such
information, or any other information, to such Guarantor.

      Each Guarantor consents and agrees that neither Agent nor any Lender shall
be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Guarantor or
against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. Each Guarantor further
agrees that, to the extent that any Borrower makes a payment or payments to
Agent or any Lender, or Agent or any Lender receives any proceeds of Collateral,
which payment or payments or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated,
declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to
any Borrower, its estate, trustee, receiver or any other party, including
without limitation any Guarantor, under any bankruptcy law, state or federal
law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such payment or
repayment, the Obligations or the part thereof which has been paid, reduced or
satisfied by such amount shall be reinstated and continued in full force and
effect as of the date such initial payment, reduction or satisfaction occurred,
and this Guaranty shall continue to be in existence and in full force and
effect, irrespective of whether any evidence of indebtedness has been
surrendered or cancelled.

      Each Guarantor also waives all set-offs and counterclaims and all
presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests,
notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceleration, notices of
intent to accelerate and notices of acceptance of this Guaranty. Each Guarantor
further waives all notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or
additional indebtedness, arising either from additional loans extended to any
Borrower or otherwise, and also waives all notices that the principal amount, or
any portion thereof, or any interest under or on any Financing Document is due,
notices of any and all proceedings to collect from the maker, any endorser or
any other guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations, or from anyone else,
and, to the extent permitted by law, notices of exchange, sale, surrender or
other handling of any security or collateral given to Agent to secure payment of
the Obligations.

                       III. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

      Each Guarantor hereby represents and warrants to Agent and Lenders that
(i) it is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws
of the jurisdiction of its organization, (ii) the execution, delivery and
performance by such Guarantor of this Guaranty and the other Financing Documents
to which it is a party are within its powers, have been duly

                                       4

require no further action by or in respect of, or filing with, any governmental
body, agency or official and do not violate, conflict with or cause a breach or
a default under any provision of applicable law or regulation, any of its
Organizational Documents or any agreement, judgment, injunction, order, decree
or other instrument binding upon it and (iii) this Guaranty, and each other
Financing Document to which it is a party, constitutes a valid and binding
agreement or instrument of such Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in
accordance with its respective terms, except as the enforceability thereof may
be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar laws relating to the
enforcement of creditors' rights generally and by general equitable principles.

operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise by Agent of any

or any Lender's failure at any time or times hereafter to require strict
performance by Borrowers or Guarantors of any of the provisions, warranties,
terms and conditions contained in this Guaranty shall not waive, affect or
diminish any right of Agent and Lenders at any time or times hereafter to demand
strict performance thereof and such right shall not be deemed to have been
waived by any act or knowledge of Agent or any Lender, or its respective agents,
officers or employees, unless such waiver is contained in an instrument in
writing signed by an officer or agent of Agent, and directed to Borrowers or
Guarantors, as applicable, specifying such waiver. No failure or delay by Agent
or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Guaranty
shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise
thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall
be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law. The
obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty are secured by, among other
