Borrowing, which shall be in Dollars or an Alternative Currency, (iv) aggregate

Borrower at the Administrative Agent's aforesaid address.

     (a) Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary notwithstanding:

          (i) If with respect to a request for a Committed Borrowing of an
     Alternative Currency other than Sterling, Euros or Yen, any Bank shall,
     prior to 10:00 A.M. (Chicago time) on the second Business Day before the
     requested date of such Committed Borrowing, notify the Administrative Agent
     that the requested Alternative Currency is not practically available to

          (ii) If any Bank shall, prior to making any requested Committed
     Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances in an Alternative
     Currency, notify the Administrative Agent that the introduction of or any
     change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it
     unlawful, or that any central bank or other governmental authority asserts
     that it is unlawful, for such Bank or its Eurocurrency Lending Office or
     any other Applicable Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to
     make Eurocurrency Rate Advances in such currency or to fund or maintain
     Eurocurrency Rate Advances in such currency hereunder; or

          (iii) If the Majority Banks shall, prior to making any requested
     Committed Borrowing of an Alternative Currency other than Sterling, Yen or
     the Euro, notify the Administrative Agent or the Administrative Agent shall
     reasonably determine that currency control or other exchange regulations
     are imposed in the country in which such currency is issued which result in
     the introduction of different types of such currency or that there is a
     change in national or international financial, political or economic
     conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange controls which would make
     it impracticable for such Advance to be denominated in the Alternative
     Currency;

then, upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the
Company and the applicable Borrower (if other than the Company) and the Company
or such Borrower may, without incurring an obligation to indemnify for losses,
costs or expenses under Section 2.02(d), by notice to the Administrative Agent
(which shall promptly notify each Bank), either

          (x) withdraw the applicable Notice of Committed Borrowing, in which
     case the Committed Borrowing shall not occur;

          (y) request that such Committed Borrowing be made by the Banks in
     Dollars as a Committed Borrowing comprised of either Eurocurrency Rate
     Advances or Base Rate Advances, in which case the original Notice of
     Committed Borrowing shall be deemed to be a Notice of Committed Borrowing
     which requests a Committed Borrowing

     in an aggregate principal amount in Dollars equivalent, on the date the
     Company or such Borrower so notifies the Administrative Agent, to the
     amount of the originally requested currency for such Type of Committed
     Advances (determined in accordance with Section 2.16); provided that such
     request may not be made by the Company or such Borrower if the requested
     Type of Committed Advances is Eurocurrency Rate Advances and the request by
     the Company or such Borrower is not given to the Administrative Agent prior
     to 2:00 P.M. (London time) on the second Business Day before the requested
     date of such Committed Borrowing; or

          (z) only in the case of a Bank giving a notice described in Section
     2.02(b)(ii) above, request that such Committed Borrowing be made by the
     Banks (other than the notifying Bank) and that no Committed Advance be made
     by the notifying Bank in connection with such Committed Borrowing.

In the case of any notice given under clause (y) above, the Company or such
Borrower shall specify in such notice the amount and type of Committed Advance
to be made by each Bank in connection therewith. Any notice under this
subsection (b) shall be given no later than 2:00 P.M. (London time) two Business
Days before the date of the requested Committed Borrowing, may be given by
telephone and, if by telephone, shall be confirmed promptly in writing. If
neither the Company nor the applicable Borrower shall provide a timely notice as
contemplated in clause (x), (y) or (z) above in response to a notice by any Bank
under clause (i) or (ii) above, the applicable Notice of Committed Borrowing
shall be deemed withdrawn.

     (c) Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary notwithstanding, if
the Majority Banks shall, no later than 5:00 P.M. (Chicago time) three Business
Days before the date of any requested Committed Borrowing, continuation or
conversion consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, or any continuation thereof
or conversion thereto, notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurocurrency
Rate for any Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Advances, plus
additional interest, if any, payable under Section 2.08, will not adequately
reflect the cost to such Majority Banks of making, funding, converting to or
continuing their respective Eurocurrency Rate Advances for such Committed
Borrowing for such Interest Period, then the Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify the Company, the applicable Borrower (if other than the Company) and the
Banks of such circumstances and upon receipt of such notice, the Company or such
Borrower may, without incurring an obligation to indemnify for losses, costs or
expenses under Section 2.02(d), by notice to the Administrative Agent (which
shall promptly notify each Bank), either:

          (i) withdraw the applicable Notice of Committed Borrowing, in which
     case the Committed Borrowing shall not occur;

          (ii) withdraw the applicable Notice of Conversion or Continuation, in
     which case the conversion or continuation of such Committed Borrowing shall
     not occur; or

          (iii) request that such Committed Borrowing, continuation or
     conversion be made by the Banks in Dollars as a Committed Borrowing,
     continuation or conversion, in which case the original Notice of Committed
     Borrowing, or Notice of

                                       15

<PAGE>

     Conversion or Continuation shall be deemed to be a Notice of Committed
     Borrowing, or Notice of Conversion or Continuation which requests a
     Committed Borrowing, continuation or conversion in an aggregate principal
     amount in Dollars equivalent, on the date the Company or such Borrower so
     notifies the Administrative Agent, to the amount of the
     originally-requested currency for such Committed Advances; provided that
     such request may not be made by the Company or such Borrower if the request
     by the Company or such Borrower is not given to the Administrative Agent
     prior to 2:00 P.M. (London time) on the second Business Day before the
     requested date of such Committed Borrowing, continuation or conversion.

In the case of any notice given under clause (iii) above, the Company or such
Borrower shall specify in such notice the amount and Type of Committed Advances
to be made, continued or converted by the Banks in connection therewith. Any
notice under this subsection (c) shall be given no later than 2:00 P.M. (London
time) two Business Days before the date of the requested Committed Borrowing,
may be given by telephone, and, if by telephone, shall be confirmed promptly in
writing. From and after the date the Administrative Agent receives the notice
described in Section 2.02(c), the Banks' obligation to make Eurocurrency
Advances for any affected Interest Period shall be suspended until the Majority
Banks notify the Administrative Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such
notice no longer exist. If neither the Company nor the applicable Borrower shall
provide a timely notice as contemplated in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above with
respect to a Notice of Committed Borrowing, the applicable Notice of Committed
Borrowing shall be deemed withdrawn. If neither the Company nor the applicable
Borrower shall provide timely a notice as contemplated in clauses (i), (ii) or
(iii) above with respect to a Notice of Continuation or Conversion, the Company
or such applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have made the request described
in clause (iii).

     (d) Each Notice of Committed Borrowing and Notice of Conversion or
Continuation may be revoked by the Company or, if other than the Company, the
applicable Borrower, by notice to the Administrative Agent without any liability
on the part of the Company or such Borrower at any time prior to (i) 10:00 A.M.
(Chicago time) on the date of a proposed Committed Borrowing, continuation or
conversion comprised of Base Rate Advances, (ii) 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the
second Business Day prior to the date of a proposed Committed Borrowing,
continuation or conversion comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Advances to be
denominated in Dollars, and (iii) 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the third Business
Day prior to the date of a proposed Committed Borrowing, continuation or
conversion comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Advances to be denominated in an
Alternative Currency. In the case of any Committed Borrowing, continuation or
conversion which the related Notice of Committed Borrowing, or Notice of
Conversion or Continuation, specifies is to be comprised of Eurocurrency Rate
Advances, unless the Company or the applicable Borrower revokes such Notice of
Committed Borrowing or Notice of Conversion or Continuation in accordance with
the preceding sentence and except as otherwise provided in Sections 2.02(b) and
(c), the Company or such Borrower shall indemnify each Bank against any loss,
cost or expense reasonably incurred by such Bank as a result of any failure to
fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing or Notice of
Conversion or Continuation for such Committed Borrowing, conversion or
continuation, the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including,
without limitation, any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or
expense reasonably incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of
deposits or other funds acquired by such Bank to

                                       16

<PAGE>

fund the Committed Advance to be made by such Bank as part of such Committed
Borrowing, conversion or continuation, when such Committed Advance, as a result
of such failure, is not made, continued or converted on such date.

     (e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Bank
prior to the date of any Committed Borrowing that such Bank will not make
available to the Administrative Agent such Bank's Pro Rata Share of such
Committed Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Bank has made
such Pro Rata Share available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such
Committed Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and
the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make a
corresponding amount available to the applicable Borrower on such date. If and
to the extent that such Bank shall not have so made such Pro Rata Share
available to the Administrative Agent, such Bank and such Borrower severally
agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such
corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date
such amount is made available to such Borrower until the date such amount is
repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Borrower, the
interest rate applicable at the time to Committed Advances comprising such
Committed Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Bank, the Federal Funds Rate.
If such Bank shall repay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent,
such amount so repaid shall constitute such Bank's Committed Advance as part of
such Committed Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.

     (f) A Bank's failure to make the Committed Advance to be made by it as part
of any Committed Borrowing shall not relieve any other Bank of its obligation,
if any, hereunder to make its Committed Advance on the date of such Committed
Borrowing. No Bank shall be responsible for the failure of any other Bank to
make the Committed Advance to be made by such other Bank on the date of any
Committed Borrowing.

     SECTION 2.03 The Uncommitted Advances. (a) Each Bank severally agrees that
any Borrower may make Uncommitted Borrowings in Dollars from time to time on any
Business Day during the period from the date hereof until 30 days before the
Termination Date in the manner set forth below; provided that, following the
making of each Uncommitted Borrowing, the aggregate amount with respect to all
Borrowers of the Advances then outstanding shall not exceed the aggregate amount
of the Commitments of the Banks.

          (i) A Borrower may request, and the Company may request for the
     benefit of any Borrowing Subsidiary, an Uncommitted Borrowing to be made by
     such Borrower under this Section 2.03 by delivering to the Administrative
     Agent, by telecopier not later than the applicable Request Deadline a
     notice of an Uncommitted Borrowing (a "Notice of Uncommitted Borrowing"),
     in substantially the form of Exhibit D-2 hereto, specifying therein (A) the
     requested date of the proposed Uncommitted Borrowing, (B) the aggregate
     amount of the proposed Uncommitted Borrowing, (C) that each Bank submitting
     an offer shall quote an Uncommitted Borrowing Margin, or that each Bank
     submitting an offer shall quote a fixed interest rate per annum without
     reference to the Eurocurrency Rate, (D) maturity date for repayment of each
     Uncommitted Advance to be made as part of such Uncommitted Borrowing (which
     maturity date may not be earlier than one (1) day, or later than 270 days
     after the date of the proposed Uncommitted Borrowing or later than the
     Termination Date in the case of a Fixed Rate Uncommitted

                                       17

<PAGE>

     Borrowing, and which shall be one, two, three or six months, subject to the
     limitations set forth in the definition of "Interest Period" in the case of
     a Eurocurrency Rate Uncommitted Borrowing) and whether such Uncommitted
     Advance may be prepaid, and if so, whether with or without penalty, (E)
     interest payment date or dates relating thereto, (F) Borrower and (G) other
     material terms to be applicable to such Uncommitted Borrowing. The
     Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Bank of its receipt of each
     such Notice of Uncommitted Borrowing by sending each Bank a copy thereof.
     "Request Deadline" means (x) in the case of a Fixed Rate Uncommitted
     Borrowing, 4:00 P.M. (Chicago time) on the Business Day prior to the date
     of such proposed Uncommitted Borrowing and (y) in the case of a
     Eurocurrency Rate Uncommitted Borrowing, 4:00 P.M. (Chicago time) four (4)
     Business Days prior to the date of such proposed Uncommitted Borrowing.

          (ii) Each Bank shall, if, in its sole discretion, it elects to do so,
     irrevocably offer to make one or more Uncommitted Advances to such Borrower
     as part of such proposed Uncommitted Borrowing at a rate or rates of
     interest specified by such Bank, in its sole discretion, by notifying the
     Administrative Agent not later than the applicable Quote Deadline of the
     minimum amount (if any) and maximum amount of each Uncommitted Advance
     which such Bank would be willing to make as part of such proposed
     Uncommitted Borrowing (which amounts may, subject to the proviso to the
     first sentence of this Section 2.03(a), exceed such Bank's Commitment, if
     any), the Uncommitted Borrowing Margin or Margins to be applied in the
     determination of the rate or rates of interest therefor (or, if the Notice
     of Uncommitted Borrowing shall have requested that fixed rates per annum be
     quoted, the fixed rate or rates per annum therefor) and such Bank's
     Applicable Lending Office with respect to such Uncommitted Advance. If any
     Bank shall elect not to make such an offer, such Bank shall so notify the
     Administrative Agent before the applicable Quote Deadline, and such Bank
     shall not be obligated to, and shall not, make any Uncommitted Advance as
     part of such Uncommitted Borrowing; provided that the failure by any Bank
     to give such notice shall not cause such Bank to be obligated to make any
     Uncommitted Advance as part of such proposed Uncommitted Borrowing. The
     Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Company and, if applicable,
     the applicable Borrowing Subsidiary of each Bank's response pursuant to
     this paragraph (ii); provided, that if Bank One shall elect to make an
     offer under this paragraph (ii), such offer shall be delivered to the
     Company and, if applicable, the Borrowing Subsidiary not later than
     one-half hour prior to the applicable Quote Deadline. Each Borrower shall
     be entitled to assume that each quote of an Uncommitted Borrowing Margin or
     a fixed rate per annum by a Bank includes, and such Bank shall not be
     entitled to claim as additional interest or costs under Section 2.08 or
     otherwise, any costs to such Bank in the nature of a reserve requirement,
     assessment or other charge in connection with the Uncommitted Advance to
     which such quote relates, except that such Bank shall be entitled to claim
     increased costs and additional compensation under Section 2.12(a) and (b)
     and Section 2.18, but solely with respect to the changes described in such
     provisions that occur after the date such Uncommitted Advance is made.
     "Quote Deadline" means, (x) in the case of a Fixed Rate Uncommitted
     Borrowing, 9:00 A.M. (Chicago time) on the date of such proposed
     Uncommitted Borrowing and (y) in the case of a Eurocurrency Rate
     Uncommitted Borrowing,

                                       18

<PAGE>

     9:00 A.M. (Chicago time) three Business Days prior to the date of such
     proposed Uncommitted Borrowing.

          (iii) Such Borrower, or the Company on behalf of such Borrower, shall,
     in turn, before the applicable Acceptance Deadline, either

               (A) cancel, without incurring an obligation on the part of such
          Borrower or the Company to indemnify for losses, costs or expenses
          under Section 2.02(d), such Uncommitted Borrowing by giving the
          Administrative Agent notice to that effect, in which case such
          Uncommitted Borrowing shall not be made, or

               (B) accept one or more of the offers made by any Bank or Banks
          pursuant to paragraph (ii) above, in its sole discretion but in any
          event in ascending order of the fixed rates of interest or Uncommitted
          Borrowing Margins (as applicable) offered by all of the Banks
          responding to such Notice of Uncommitted Borrowing, by giving notice
          to the Administrative Agent of the relevant Banks and the respective
          amounts of each Uncommitted Advance (each of which amounts shall be
          equal to or greater than the minimum amount, and equal to or less than
          the maximum amount, offered to be made by the respective Bank for such
          Uncommitted Advance pursuant to Section 2.02(a)(ii) above) and reject
          any remaining offers made by Banks pursuant to such Section by giving
          the Administrative Agent notice to that effect. The Company (either
          for itself or on behalf of a Borrowing Subsidiary) may not accept
          offers which, in the aggregate, exceed the requested Uncommitted
          Borrowing specified in the applicable Notice of Uncommitted Borrowing.
          If two or more Banks bid at the same Uncommitted Borrowing Margin or
          fixed rate of interest, as the case may be, and the amount of accepted
          offers is less than the aggregate amount of such offers, the amount to
          be borrowed from such Banks as part of such Uncommitted Borrowing
          shall be allocated pro rata on the basis of the maximum amount offered
          by each such Bank at such fixed rates or Uncommitted Borrowing Margins
          in connection with such Uncommitted Borrowing.

The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Banks of each notice it
receives pursuant to this paragraph (iii). "Acceptance Deadline" means, (x) in
the case of an Uncommitted Borrowing to be denominated in Dollars, 10:00 A.M.
(Chicago time) on the date of such proposed Uncommitted Borrowing and (y) in the
case of an Uncommitted Borrowing to be denominated in an Alternative Currency,
4:00 P.M. (Chicago time) three Business Days prior to the date of such proposed
Uncommitted Borrowing.

          (iv) If such Borrower accepts, or the Company accepts on such
     Borrower's behalf, one or more of the offers made by any Bank or Banks
     pursuant to Section 2.03(a)(iii)(B) above, the Administrative Agent shall
     in turn promptly notify (A) each Bank that has made an offer pursuant to
     Section 2.03(a)(ii) of the date and aggregate amount of such Uncommitted
     Borrowing and whether or not any offer or offers so made

                                       19

<PAGE>

     by such Bank have been accepted by such Borrower, (B) each Bank that is to
     make an Uncommitted Advance as a part of such Uncommitted Borrowing, of the
     amount of each Uncommitted Advance to be made by such Bank as part of such
     Uncommitted Borrowing, and (C) each Bank that is to make an Uncommitted
     Advance as part of such Uncommitted Borrowing, upon receipt, that the
     Administrative Agent has received forms of documents appearing to fulfill
     the applicable conditions set forth in Article III. Each Bank that is to
     make an Uncommitted Advance as part of such Uncommitted Borrowing shall,
     before 1:00 P.M. (Chicago time) on the date of such Uncommitted Borrowing
     specified in the notice received from the Administrative Agent pursuant to
     clause (A) of the preceding sentence or any later time when such Bank shall
     have received notice from the Administrative Agent pursuant to subclause
     (C) of the preceding sentence, make available to the Administrative Agent
     at the Administrative Agent's Domestic Lending Office, in federal or
     otherwise immediately available funds, such Bank's portion of such
     Uncommitted Borrowing. After the Administrative Agent receives such funds
     and when the applicable conditions set forth in Article III have been
     fulfilled, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the
     applicable Borrower at the Administrative Agent's aforesaid address.
     Promptly after (x) each Uncommitted Borrowing, the Administrative Agent
     will notify each Bank of the amount and date of the Uncommitted Borrowing
     and the maturity date thereof and the Available Commitment of each Bank
     after giving effect to such Uncommitted Borrowing and (y) the prepayment of
     any Uncommitted Borrowing by or on behalf of such Borrower, the
     Administrative Agent will notify each Bank of the amount and date of each
     such prepayment and the Available Commitment of each Bank after giving
     effect thereto.

     (b) Each Uncommitted Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount of not less
than $25,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, or if
the requested currency for such Advance is not Dollars, the equivalent of such
amount (determined in accordance with Section 2.16) or multiple in the requested
Alternative Currency.

     (c) Within the limits and on the conditions set forth in this Section 2.03,
each Borrower may from time to time borrow under this Section 2.03, repay
pursuant to subsection (d) below, and reborrow under this Section 2.03; provided
that an Uncommitted Borrowing shall not be made within three Business Days of
any other Uncommitted Borrowing.

     (d) Each Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent, for the account
of each Bank which has made an Uncommitted Advance to such Borrower, on the
maturity date of each such Uncommitted Advance (such maturity date being that
specified for repayment of such Uncommitted Advance in the related Notice of
Uncommitted Borrowing delivered pursuant to Section 2.03(a)(i) above) the then
unpaid principal amount of such Uncommitted Advance. A Borrower shall not have
the right to prepay any principal amount of any Uncommitted Advance without the
consent of the Bank making such Advance.

     (e) Each Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each
Uncommitted Advance made to it, from the date of such Uncommitted Advance to the
date the principal amount of such Uncommitted Advance is repaid in full, at the
rate of interest for such Uncommitted Advance specified by the Bank making such
Uncommitted Advance in its notice with respect thereto delivered pursuant to
Section 2.03(a)(ii) above, payable on the interest

                                       20

<PAGE>

payment date or dates specified for such Uncommitted Advance in the related
Notice of Uncommitted Borrowing delivered pursuant to Section 2.03(a)(i) above.

          (f) The Borrower of any Uncommitted Advance shall, promptly upon
request by the Bank making such Uncommitted Advance (either in the quote
delivered by such Bank pursuant to Section 2.03(a)(ii) or by notice to the
Administrative Agent), execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an
Uncommitted Note payable to the order of such Bank in a principal amount equal
to the principal amount of such Uncommitted Advance and otherwise on such terms
as were agreed to for such Uncommitted Advance in accordance with Section 2.03.

     SECTION 2.04 Facility Fee and Utilization Fee. (a) The Company and each
Borrowing Subsidiary jointly and severally agree to pay to the Administrative
Agent, for the account of each Bank, a facility fee ("Facility Fee") on the
average daily Commitment of such Bank from the date hereof until the Termination
Date, payable in arrears on the first Business Day of each January, April, July
and October during the term of such Bank's Commitment, commencing January 2,
2003, and on the Termination Date, at the Applicable Facility Fee Rate;
provided, that if any Bank continues to have Advances outstanding hereunder
after the termination of its Commitment (including, without limitation, during
any period when Advances may be outstanding but new Advances may not be borrowed
hereunder), then such Facility Fee shall continue to accrue on the aggregate
principal amount of the Advances owed to such Bank until such Advances are
repaid in full.

          (b) To the extent, and for so long as, the average daily aggregate
outstanding principal amount of Advances in any calendar quarter exceeds
one-half of the average daily aggregate outstanding Commitments during such
calendar quarter, the Company and each Borrowing Subsidiary, jointly and
severally, agree to pay to each Bank a utilization fee (the "Utilization Fee")
equal to the Applicable Utilization Fee Rate times the aggregate principal
amount of such Bank's average daily outstanding Advances during such calendar
quarter. The Utilization Fee shall be payable on each date the Facility Fee is
payable.

          (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) any Facility Fee or Utilization
Fee accrued with respect to any Commitment of a Defaulting Bank during the
period prior to the time such Bank became a Defaulting Bank and unpaid at such
time shall not be payable by the Borrowers so long as such Bank shall be a
Defaulting Bank, except to the extent such Facility Fee or Utilization Fee was
due and payable prior to such time, and (ii) no Facility Fee or Utilization Fee
shall accrue on the Commitment of a Defaulting Bank so long as such Bank is a
Defaulting Bank.

     SECTION 2.05 Reduction and Termination of the Commitments. (a) The Company
shall have the right, upon at least four (4) Business Days' notice to the
Administrative Agent to terminate in whole or reduce ratably in part the unused
portions of the respective Commitments of the Banks, provided that the aggregate
amount of the Commitments of the Banks shall not be reduced to an amount which
is less than the aggregate principal amount of the Uncommitted Advances then
outstanding and provided, further, that each partial reduction shall be in an
aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess
thereof.

                                       21

<PAGE>

          (b) Provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Company may at any time replace any Bank, in whole but not in
part, by (i) giving such Bank and the Administrative Agent not less than ten
(10) Business Days' prior notice thereof, which notice shall be irrevocable and
effective only when received by such Bank and the Administrative Agent and shall
specify the effective date of such replacement, and (ii) effecting an assignment
of all of the Bank's Commitment and Advances in accordance with Section 9.03.

     SECTION 2.06 Payment; Conversion and Continuation.

          (a) On the Termination Date, the Borrowers shall repay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Banks, the entire unpaid principal
amount of the Advances made by each Bank.

          (b) Any Borrower may elect (x) to convert Base Rate Advances or any
portion thereof to Eurocurrency Rate Advances, (y) to convert Eurocurrency Rate
Advances or any portion thereof into Base Rate Advances, or (z) to continue any
Eurocurrency Rate Advance or any portion thereof for an additional Interest
Period; provided, however, that the aggregate amount of Base Rate Advances being
converted into Eurocurrency Rate Advances or of Eurocurrency Rate Advances being
continued shall, in the aggregate, equal $20,000,000 or an integral multiple of
$1,000,000 in excess thereof. The applicable Interest Period for the
continuation of any Eurocurrency Rate Advance shall commence on the day on which
the immediately-preceding Interest Period expires. Each conversion or
continuation shall be allocated among the Committed Advances of each Bank (other
than Banks which had not made the Advance so converted or continued) in
accordance with its Pro Rata Share of the amount so converted or continued. Each
such election shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit E (a "Notice of
Conversion or Continuation") and shall be made by giving the Administrative
Agent notice by 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the date of such conversion or
continuation, in the case of a conversion to a Base Rate Advance, giving the
Administrative Agent at least three Business Days' prior written notice thereof
in the event of a conversion to or continuation of a Eurocurrency Advance
specifying, in each case (i) whether a conversion or continuation is to take
place, (ii) what Advances are to be converted or continued, and if converted,
the Type of Advance to which it is to be converted, (iii) the amount of the
conversion or continuation, (iv) the Interest Period therefor and (v) in the
case of a conversion, the date of conversion (which date shall be a Business
Day). The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Bank of its receipt of
a Notice of Conversion or Continuation by sending such Bank a copy thereof. If,
within the time period required under the terms of this Section 2.06(b), the
Administrative Agent does not receive a Notice of Conversion or Continuation
from the applicable Borrower containing an election to continue or convert any
Advances for an additional Interest Period, then, upon the expiration of the
Interest Period therefor, such Advances will be automatically converted to Base
Rate Advances.

     SECTION 2.07 Interest on Committed Advances. Each Borrower shall pay
interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Committed Advance made by each
Bank to it from the date of such Committed Advance until such principal amount
shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum:

                                       22

<PAGE>

          (a) Base Rate Advances. During such period as such Committed Advance
is a Base Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times to the Base Rate in
effect from time to time, payable quarterly in arrears on the first Business Day
of each January, April, July and October, commencing January 2, 2003, and on the
Termination Date. The Administrative Agent shall give notice to the Company and
the applicable Borrower (if other than the Company) and each Bank of any change
in the Base Rate promptly after such change occurs, but the Administrative
Agent's failure to give such notice shall not affect the obligation of the
Company or such Borrower to pay interest at such rate when it becomes due and
payable.

          (b) Eurocurrency Rate Advances. During such period as such Committed
Advance is a Eurocurrency Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times
during each Interest Period for such Committed Advance to the sum of the
Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin, payable
on the last day of such Interest Period and, if such Interest Period has a
duration of more than three months, on each day which occurs during such
Interest Period every three months from the first day of such Interest Period
and on the date such Eurocurrency Rate Advance shall be converted or paid in
full.

          (c) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
Section 2.07, any amount of principal and fees and, to the extent permitted by
law, interest, that is not paid when due (whether at stated maturity, by
acceleration or otherwise) shall bear interest, from the date on which such
amount is due until such amount is paid in full, payable in arrears on the date
such amount shall be paid in full and on demand, at a rate per annum equal at
all times to 2% per annum above (i) in the case of principal, the rate of
interest otherwise thereto from time to time in accordance with the terms
hereof, and (ii) in the case of interest and fees, the Base Rate in effect from
time to time.

     SECTION 2.08 Additional Interest on Eurocurrency Rate Advances. Each
Borrower shall pay to each Bank, so long as and to the extent such Bank shall be
required under regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System (or any similar authority outside the United States, in the case of
Committed Advances in Alternative Currencies) to maintain reserves with respect
to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency Liabilities (or
any other category of liabilities that includes deposits by reference to which
the interest rate on Eurocurrency Rate Advances in the applicable Alternative
Currency is determined) and such Bank's performance under this Agreement (and
other like agreements) shall have given rise to additional reserve requirements
for such Bank thereunder, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of
each Committed Advance constituting a Eurocurrency Rate Advance of such Bank
made to such Borrower, from the date of such Committed Advance until such
principal amount is paid in full, at an interest rate per annum equal at all
times to the remainder obtained by subtracting (i) the Eurocurrency Rate for the
applicable Interest Period for such Committed Advance from (ii) the rate
obtained by dividing such Eurocurrency Rate by a percentage equal to 100% minus
the Eurocurrency Rate Reserve Percentage of such Bank for such Interest Period,
payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Committed Advance.
Such Bank shall, not later than the last day of the applicable Interest Period,
provide notice to the Administrative Agent, the Company and, if other than the
Company, the applicable Borrower of any such additional interest arising in
connection with such Committed Advance. Such additional interest so notified on
a timely basis by any Bank shall be payable to the

                                       23

<PAGE>

Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank on the dates specified for
payment of interest for such Committed Advance in Section 2.07.

     SECTION 2.09 Interest Rate Determination.

          (a) The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Company
and the applicable Borrower (if other than the Company) and each of the Banks of
the applicable interest rate determined by the Administrative Agent for purposes
of Section 2.07(a) or (b).

          (b) On the date on which the aggregate unpaid principal amount of
Eurocurrency Rate Advances comprising any Committed Borrowing shall be reduced,
by payment, prepayment or otherwise, to less than $20,000,000, such Advances
shall automatically convert into Base Rate Advances and such conversion shall be
subject to Section 2.11.

     SECTION 2.10 Prepayments. A Borrower may prepay, on any Business Day
following notice by 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on such Business Day to the
Administrative Agent (in the case of Base Rate Advances) and on three Business
Days' prior notice to the Administrative Agent (in the case of Eurocurrency Rate
Advances), each Committed Borrowing made to such Borrower, in whole or in part.
Such notice shall include the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of
such prepayment, and if such notice is given, such Borrower shall prepay such
principal amount, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment
on the principal amount prepaid. Any amounts payable, if any, pursuant to
Section 2.11 hereof in connection with any prepayment shall be paid on the date
of such prepayment; provided, however, that each partial prepayment shall be in
an aggregate principal amount of not less than $10,000,000 or an integral
multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Subject to Sections 2.12 and 2.13,
each prepayment of a Committed Borrowing shall be made to each Bank in
accordance with such Bank's Pro Rata Share thereof (other than any Banks which
did not make such Committed Borrowing). The Company shall, on the first Business
Day of each January, April, July and October, if the aggregate outstanding
principal Dollar Amount of all Advances, calculated by the Administrative Agent
on the seventh Business Day prior to such payment date and reported to the
Company by the fifth Business Day prior to such payment date, exceeds (as the
result of fluctuations in applicable foreign exchange rates or otherwise) 105%
of the then aggregate amount of the Banks' Commitments (calculated as
aforesaid), prepay a Committed Borrowing or Borrowings (in whole or in part, and
in any case as selected by the Company) in an aggregate Dollar Amount
(calculated as aforesaid, and rounded upward, if necessary, to the nearest
$1,000,000) equal to the excess of:

               (i) the aggregate principal Dollar Amount (calculated as
     aforesaid) of Advances outstanding, over

               (ii) the then aggregate amount of the Banks' Commitments
     (calculated as aforesaid).

Each prepayment of any Committed Borrowing (in whole or in part) made pursuant
to this Section 2.10 shall be without premium or penalty, but shall be subject
to the provisions of Section 2.11. Any mandatory prepayment of a Committed
Borrowing shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Bank
based on such Bank's Pro Rata Share of such

                                       24

<PAGE>

Committed Borrowing and shall include accrued and unpaid interest on the
principal amount prepaid and all amounts owing under Section 2.11.

     SECTION 2.11 Funding Indemnification. If any payment of principal of any
Advance (other than a Base Rate Advance) is made other than on the last day of
an Interest Period for such Advance, as a result of acceleration of the maturity
of the Advances pursuant to Section 6.01 or for any other reason, or if any
Eurocurrency Rate Advance is converted to a Base Rate Advance pursuant to
Section 2.13(b) on any day other than the last day of an Interest Period for
such Eurocurrency Rate Advance, the applicable Borrower shall, upon demand by
any Bank (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank any amounts required to
compensate such Bank for any additional losses, costs or expenses which it may
reasonably incur as a result of such payment or conversion, including without
limitation any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense
reasonably incurred as a result of the liquidation or re-employment of deposits
or other funds acquired by such Bank to fund or maintain such Advance.

     SECTION 2.12 Increased Costs and Reduced Return. (a) Subject to the
limitation in Section 2.03(a)(ii), if, due to either (i) the introduction of or
any change (other than any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve
requirements, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, included in the
Eurocurrency Rate Reserve Percentage), after the date hereof, in or in the
interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any
guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority
(whether or not having the force of law) issued after the date hereof, there
shall be any increase in the cost to any Bank of agreeing to make, making,
funding or maintaining Eurocurrency Rate Advances (including, without
limitation, any conversion of any Advance denominated in an Alternative Currency
other than the Euro into an Advance denominated in Euro), by an amount
reasonably deemed by such Bank to be material, then from time to time, within
ten days after demand by such Bank (with a copy of such demand to the
Administrative Agent), such Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for
the account of such Bank additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Bank
for such increased cost; provided that no Borrower shall be obligated to pay any
such amount to the extent such amount results from a change, guideline or
request which took effect more than 90 days prior to the date of such demand.

          (b) Subject to the limitation in Section 2.03(a)(ii), if any Bank
shall have determined that the adoption, after the date hereof, of any
applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change
therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any
governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the
interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Bank (or its
Applicable Lending Office) with any request or directive issued after the date
hereof regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of
any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the
effect of reducing the rate of return on such Bank's capital as a consequence of
its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Bank could have
achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance by an amount reasonably
deemed by such Bank to be material, then from time to time, within ten days
after demand by such Bank (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative
Agent), the Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of
such Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank, in
light of such circumstances, to the extent such Bank reasonably

                                       25

<PAGE>

determines such reduction to be allocable to the existence of such Bank's
Commitment; provided that no Borrower shall be obligated to pay any such amount
to the extent such amount results from an adoption, change, request or directive
which took effect or was issued more than 90 days prior to the date of such
demand.

          (c) Each Bank will promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the
Company of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof,
which would entitle such Bank to compensation pursuant to this Section 2.12. A
certificate of any Bank claiming compensation under this Section and setting
forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall create a
rebuttable presumption as to the correctness of such additional amount or
amounts. Each Bank agrees not to request any payment under this Section 2.12
unless similar requests are then generally being made by such Bank of other
borrowers similarly situated, and to use a reasonable basis for calculating
amounts allocable to its Commitment hereunder.

     SECTION 2.13 Illegality. (a) If any Bank shall determine (which
determination shall be rebuttably presumed correct as to all parties) at any
time that the making or continuance of its Eurocurrency Rate Advances has become
unlawful because of the introduction of or any change in or in the
interpretation of any law or regulation or because of the assertion of
unlawfulness by any central bank or other governmental authority, then, in any
such event, such Bank shall give prompt notice (by telephone confirmed in
writing) to the Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the
Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each Borrower and the other
Banks).

          (b) Upon the giving of the notice to the Company referred to in
subsection (a) above, if the affected Advances are then outstanding, each
Borrower shall, upon at least one Business Day's written notice to the
Administrative Agent and the affected Bank, or if permitted by applicable law no
later than the date permitted thereby, in such Borrower's sole discretion,
either (i) prepay the principal amount of all outstanding Advances of such Bank
to which such notice relates, together with accrued interest thereon to the date
of payment, or (ii) convert each such Advance into a Base Rate Advance
denominated in Dollars and, in each case, be obligated to reimburse the Banks in
respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.11 hereof. If more than one Bank gives
notice pursuant to Section 2.13(a) at any time, then all outstanding Advances of
the affected Type or currency of such Banks must be treated in the same manner
by the Borrowers pursuant to this subsection 2.13(b) and the Banks' obligations
to make, convert or continue Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended until
the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers that the circumstances causing
such suspension no longer exist.

     SECTION 2.14 Payments and Computations. (a) The Company and each Borrowing
Subsidiary shall make each payment hereunder and under the Notes without
set-off, counterclaim or other deduction by causing a wire transfer of
immediately-available funds to be initiated to the Administrative Agent in an
amount equal to such payment not later than 12:00 noon (Chicago time) on the day
when due from the Company or such Borrowing Subsidiary. The Administrative Agent
will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the
payment of principal or interest or fees ratably (other than amounts payable
pursuant to Sections 2.03, 2.05(b), 2.08, 2.11, 2.12, 2.15, 2.18 or 2.19) to the
Banks for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like
funds relating to the payment of any other

                                       26

<PAGE>

amount payable to any Bank to such Bank for the account of its Applicable
Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement. All such payments shall be made in Dollars, except that payments of
principal of and interest on Borrowings in an Alternative Currency shall be made
in such Alternative Currency or, where such Alternative Currency has converted
to the Euro, in the Euro; provided that if the applicable Borrower fails to make
any payment of principal or interest with respect to any Borrowing in an
Alternative Currency (including the Euro) on the due date thereof because such
Alternative Currency has ceased to be freely transferable and convertible into
Dollars in the international currency and exchange markets, such failure shall
not constitute an Event of Default or an event which would constitute an Event
of Default but for the requirement that notice be given or time elapse or both,
if such Borrower pays the equivalent in Dollars of such payment on the due date
thereof. In addition to any such Dollar payment, such Borrower agrees to pay to
each affected Bank an indemnity payment within five Business Days after such
Borrower shall have received a certificate from such Bank setting forth in
reasonable detail the amount of any loss, cost, damage or expense suffered by
such Bank as a consequence of such inability to make any such payment in such
Alternative Currency on the due date thereof. Each Bank agrees to use reasonable
efforts to avoid or minimize all such loss, cost, damage or expense.

          (b) All computations of interest based on the Base Rate, or the
Eurocurrency Rate applicable to Borrowings denominated in Sterling, shall be
made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as
the case may be, and all computations of interest based on the Eurocurrency Rate
(as to all other currencies) or the Federal Funds Rate, all computations of
interest pursuant to Section 2.08 and all computations of the Facility Fee and
the Utilization Fee shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a
year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the
first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such
interest or fees are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent
(or, in the case of Section 2.08, by a Bank) of an interest rate or fee owing
hereunder shall create a rebuttable presumption as to the correctness of such
determination.

          (c) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated
to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the
next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be
included in the computation of payment of interest or fee, as the case may be;
provided, however, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or
principal of Eurocurrency Rate Advances to be made in the next following
calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

          (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from
the applicable Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the
Banks hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment in full, the
Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment in full
to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in
reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Bank on such due
date an amount equal to the amount then due such Bank. If and to the extent such
Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative
Agent, each Bank shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand
such amount distributed to such Bank together with interest thereon, for each
day from the date such amount is distributed to such Bank until the date such
Bank repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate.

                                       27

     SECTION 2.15 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Bank shall obtain any payment
(whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off,
or otherwise) on account of the Committed Advances made by it (other than
pursuant to Sections 2.08, 2.11, 2.12, 2.13(b), 2.18 or 2.19) in excess of its
ratable share of payments on account of the Committed Advances obtained by all
the Banks, such Bank shall forthwith purchase from the other Banks such
participations in the Committed Advances made by them as shall be necessary to
cause such purchasing Bank to share the excess payment ratably with each of
them, provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is
thereafter recovered from such purchasing Bank, such purchase from each Bank
shall be rescinded and such Bank shall repay to the purchasing Bank the purchase
price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such
Bank's ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such
Bank's required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the
purchasing Bank) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the
purchasing Bank in respect of the total amount so recovered. Each Borrower
agrees that any Bank so purchasing a participation from another Bank with
respect to Advances made to such Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.15 may, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment
(including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as
if such Bank were the direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such
participation.

     SECTION 2.16 Currency Equivalents. (a) For purposes of this Article II, (i)
the equivalent in Dollars of any Alternative Currency shall be determined by
using the arithmetical mean of the buy and sell spot rates at which Bank One's
principal office in London exchanges Dollars for such Alternative Currency in
the interbank market in London at 11:00 A.M. (London time) two Business Days
prior to the date on which such equivalent is to be determined, (ii) the
equivalent in any Alternative Currency of any other Alternative Currency shall
be determined by using the arithmetical mean of the buy and sell spot rates at
which Bank One's principal office in London exchanges such Alternative Currency
for the equivalent in such other Alternative Currency in London at 11:00 A.M.
(London time) two Business Days prior to the date on which such equivalent is to
be determined, and (iii) the equivalent in any Alternative Currency of Dollars
shall be determined by using the arithmetical mean of the buy and sell spot
rates at which Bank One's principal office in London exchanges such Alternative
Currency for Dollars in London at 11:00 A.M. (London time) two Business Days
prior to the date on which such equivalent is to be determined. The equivalent
in Dollars of each Eurocurrency Rate Advance made in an Alternative Currency
shall be recalculated hereunder on each day that it is necessary to determine
the unused portion of each Bank's Commitment, or any or all of the Advances on
such date.

          (b) If for the purpose of obtaining a judgment in any court with
respect to any obligation of a Borrower hereunder, it shall become necessary for
the Administrative Agent or any Bank entitled to receive payments hereunder to
convert any amount into a currency other than the currency denominated hereunder
for such obligation, then such conversion shall be made on the basis of rates
(the "Exchange Rates") determined in the manner described in subsection (a)
above (or, if the applicable currency to be converted is not at the time of
conversion available in the interbank market in London, then in such other
interbank market as the Administrative Agent shall determine to have adequate
availability of such currency) and the date with respect to which such an
equivalent is to be determined shall be the first Business Day preceding the
date on which final judgment is entered. If pursuant to any such judgment

                                       28

<PAGE>

conversion is to be made with respect to a date other than the date referred to
above, and there shall occur a change between the Exchange Rates in effect on
such date and the Exchange Rates in effect on the date of payment, (i) the
applicable Borrower agrees to pay such additional amounts (if any) as may be
necessary to ensure that the amount paid is the amount in such other currency
which, when converted at the Exchange Rates as in effect on the date of payment
or distribution, is the amount then due hereunder in the relevant currency and
(ii) such Borrower shall not be required to pay any amount in excess of the
amount determined to be payable in connection with such obligation, calculated
on the basis of the Exchange Rates in effect on the first Business Day preceding
the date on which final judgment is entered. Any amount due from a Borrower
under this subsection (b) shall be due as a separate debt and is not to be
affected by or merged into any judgment being obtained for any other sums due
hereunder.

     SECTION 2.17 Borrowing Subsidiaries. The Company may at any time or from
time to time add as a party to this Agreement any Subsidiary of the Company to
be a "Borrowing Subsidiary" hereunder by causing such Subsidiary to execute and
deliver a duly completed Assumption Letter to the Administrative Agent, with the
written consent of the Company at the foot thereof. Upon such execution,
delivery and consent such Subsidiary shall for all purposes be a party hereto as
a Borrowing Subsidiary as fully as if it had executed and delivered this
Agreement. So long as the principal of and interest on all Advances made to any
Borrowing Subsidiary under this Agreement shall have been paid in full and all
other obligations of such Borrowing Subsidiary shall have been fully performed,
such Borrowing Subsidiary may, by not less than five Business Days' prior notice
to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Banks thereof),
terminate its status as a "Borrowing Subsidiary."

     SECTION 2.18 Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by a Borrower hereunder or
under the Notes shall be made in accordance with Section 2.14, free and clear of
and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts,
deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto,
excluding, in the case of each Bank and the Administrative Agent, taxes imposed
on its income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction under the
laws of which such Bank or the Administrative Agent is organized or any
political subdivision thereof and taxes imposed on its income, and franchise
taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction of such Bank's Applicable 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 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 Bank or the Administrative Agent, (i) 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
2.18) such Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an
amount equal to the sum it would have received had no deductions been made, (ii)
such Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower shall pay the
full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in
accordance with applicable law.

          (b) In addition, each Borrower agrees to pay any present or future
stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or
similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or under the Notes or
from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to,
this Agreement (hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes").

                                       29

<PAGE>

          (c) Each Borrower will indemnify each Bank and the Administrative
Agent for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without
limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts
payable under this Section 2.18) paid by such Bank or the Administrative Agent
and any 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; provided, that the Borrowers shall have no obligation under
this subsection (c) to indemnify any Bank or the Administrative Agent if a
Borrower shall have performed its obligations under subsection (a) and (b),
thereby providing such Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) the
wherewithal to make payment, or demonstrate that payment has been made, of any
such Taxes or Other Taxes, and such Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the
case may be) shall not have effected such payment or made such demonstration of
payment on a timely basis to the relevant taxing authorities. This
indemnification shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the account of
such Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) within 30 days from
the date such Bank or the Administrative Agent makes written demand therefor
(with a copy, in the case of a demand by a Bank, of such demand to the
Administrative Agent).

          (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless, prior to the date of the
initial Committed Borrowing (in the case of a Bank listed on Schedule I hereto),
and prior to the effective date of the assignment agreement by which it became a
Bank (in the case of a Bank that became a Bank pursuant to such assignment
agreement), and, in respect of borrowings by a Borrowing Subsidiary organized
under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, prior to the date on
which such Borrowing Subsidiary became a Borrower pursuant to Section 2.17, and
in each case from time to time thereafter, if requested by any Borrower,

               (i) each Bank organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside
     the United States shall have provided the Company with the forms prescribed
     by the Internal Revenue Service of the United States certifying as to such
     Bank's status for purposes of determining exemption from United States
     withholding taxes with respect to all payments to be made to such Bank
     hereunder or other documents satisfactory to the Company which shall
     indicate that all payments to be made to such Bank hereunder are not
     subject to United States withholding tax or are subject to such taxes at a
     rate reduced to zero by an applicable tax treaty, neither the Company nor
     any other Borrower shall have any obligation under the last sentence of
     Section 2.18(a) to make any payments to or for the benefit of such Bank in
     excess of the amounts otherwise payable under this Agreement, and

               (ii) each Bank organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside
     the jurisdiction where any Borrowing Subsidiary is incorporated shall have
     taken all steps prescribed by the applicable governmental authority in the
     jurisdiction where such Borrowing Subsidiary is located so that such Bank
     is exempt from applicable withholding taxes with respect to all payments to
     be made to such Bank hereunder or so that all payments to be made to such
     Bank hereunder are not subject to applicable withholding taxes or are
     subject to such taxes at a rate reduced to zero by an applicable tax
     treaty, neither the Company nor any other Borrower shall have any
     obligation under the last sentence of Section 2.18(a) to make any payments
     to or for the benefit of such Bank in excess of the amounts otherwise
     payable under this Agreement; provided, however, that

                                       30

<PAGE>

          the applicable Borrower shall make the payments required by the last
          sentence of Section 2.18(a) if the obligation to withhold arises from
          a change in applicable law after the date hereof (or, with respect to
          payments to a new Applicable Lending Office designated pursuant to
          Section 2.20, after the date such Bank designates such new Applicable
          Lending Office).

Unless the applicable Borrower has received forms or other documents, including
Form W-8ECI, Form W-8BEN or any other applicable tax forms from the United
States or any other applicable jurisdiction, such forms to be satisfactory to
the Company, indicating that payments hereunder are not subject to any
withholding tax or are subject to such tax at a rate reduced to zero by an
applicable tax treaty, the applicable Borrower shall withhold taxes from such
payments at the applicable statutory rate in the case of payments to or for any
Bank organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States (or in
the case of a Borrowing Subsidiary incorporated outside the United States, any
Bank organized under the laws outside of the jurisdiction where such Borrowing
Subsidiary is incorporated). Should a Bank become subject to Taxes because of
its failure or inability to deliver a form required hereunder, the Company shall
take such steps not requiring the expenditure of money as the Bank shall
reasonably request to assist the Bank to recover such Taxes.

     SECTION 2.19 Defaulting Banks. (a) If at any time (i) any Bank shall be a
Defaulting Bank, (ii) such Defaulting Bank shall owe a Defaulted Advance to the
Borrower and (iii) the Borrower shall be required to make any payment hereunder
or under any Note to or for the account of such Defaulting Bank, then the
Borrower may, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing at such time and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,
set off and otherwise apply the amount owed by the Borrower to or for the
account of such Defaulting Bank against the obligation of such Defaulting Bank
to make such Defaulted Advance. If the Borrower shall so set off and otherwise
apply the amount owed by the Borrower to or for the account of such Defaulting
Bank against the obligation of such Defaulting Bank to make any such Defaulted
Advance on any date, the amount so set off and otherwise applied by the Borrower
shall constitute for all purposes of this Agreement and the Notes an Advance by
such Defaulting Bank made on the date of such setoff. Such Advance shall be a
Base Rate Advance and shall be considered, for all purposes of this Agreement,
to comprise part of the Borrowing in connection with which such Defaulted
Advance was originally required to have been made pursuant to Section 2.01 or
Section 2.03(a), as the case may be, even if the other Advances comprising such
Borrowing shall be Eurocurrency Rate Advances on the date such Advance is deemed
to be made pursuant to this Section 2.19(a). The Borrower shall notify the
Administrative Agent at any time the Borrower makes a setoff under this Section
2.19(a) and shall specify in such notice (A) the name of the Defaulting Bank and
the Defaulted Advance required to be made by such Defaulting Bank and (B) the
amount set off and otherwise applied in respect of such Defaulted Advance
pursuant to this Section 2.19(a). Any part of such payment otherwise required to
be made by the Borrower to or for the account of such Defaulting Bank that is
paid by the Borrower, after giving effect to the amount set off and otherwise
applied by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.19(a), shall be applied by
the Administrative Agent as specified in Section 2.19(b) or 2.19(c).

          (b) If at any time (i) any Bank shall be a Defaulting Bank, (ii) such
Defaulting Bank shall owe a Defaulted Amount to the Administrative Agent or any
of the other Banks and

                                       31

<PAGE>

(iii) the Borrower shall make any payment hereunder or under any Note to the
Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Bank, then the
Administrative Agent may, on its behalf or on behalf of such other Banks and to
the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, apply at such time the amount so
paid by the Borrower to or for the account of such Defaulting Bank to the
payment of each such Defaulted Amount to the extent required to pay such
Defaulted Amount. If the Administrative Agent shall so apply any such amount to
the payment of any such Defaulted Amount on any date, the amount so applied by
the Administrative Agent shall constitute for all purposes of this Agreement and
the Notes payment to such extent of such Defaulted Amount on such date. Any such
amount so applied by the Administrative Agent shall be retained by the
Administrative Agent or distributed by the Administrative Agent to such other
Banks, ratably in accordance with their respective portions of such Defaulted
Amounts payable at such time to the Administrative Agent and such other Banks
and, if the amount of such payment made by the Borrower shall at any time be
insufficient to pay all Defaulted Amounts owing at such time to the
Administrative Agent and the other Banks, in the following order of priority:

                    (A) first, to the Administrative Agent for any Defaulted
               Amounts owing to the Administrative Agent (solely in its capacity
               as Administrative Agent) at such time; and

                    (B) second, to the other Banks for any Defaulted Amounts
               owing to the other Banks (solely in their capacity as Banks) at
               such time, ratably in accordance with such respective Defaulted
               Amounts owing to each other Bank (solely in its capacity as a
               Bank) at such time.

Any part of such payment made by the Borrower for the account of such Defaulting
Bank remaining, after giving effect to the amount applied by the Administrative
Agent pursuant to this Section 2.19(b), shall be applied by the Administrative
Agent as specified in Section 2.19(c).

          (c) If at any time, (i) any Bank shall be a Defaulting Bank, (ii) such
Defaulting Bank shall not owe a Defaulted Advance or a Defaulted Amount and
(iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Bank shall be required
to pay or to distribute any amount hereunder or under any Note to or for the
account of such Defaulting Bank, then the Borrower or such other Bank shall pay
such amount to the Administrative Agent to be held by the Administrative Agent,
to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in escrow or the
Administrative Agent shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,
hold in escrow such amount otherwise held by it. Any funds held by the
Administrative Agent in escrow under this Section 2.19(c) shall be deposited by
the Administrative Agent in an account with Bank One, in the name and under the
control of the Administrative Agent, but subject to the provisions of this
Section 2.19(c). The terms applicable to such account, including the rate of
interest payable with respect to the credit balance of such account from time to
time, shall be Bank One's standard terms applicable to escrow accounts
maintained with it. Any interest credited to such account from time to time
shall be held by the Administrative Agent in escrow under, and applied by the
Administrative Agent from time to time in accordance with the provisions of,
this Section 2.19(c). The Administrative Agent shall, to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, apply all funds so held in escrow from time to time
to the extent necessary to make any Advances required to be made by such
Defaulting Bank and to pay any amount payable by such

                                       32

<PAGE>

Defaulting Bank hereunder to the Administrative Agent or any other Bank, as and
when such Advances or such amounts are required to be made or paid and, if the
amount so held in escrow shall any time be insufficient to make and pay all such
Advances and all such amounts required to be made or paid at such time, in the
following order of priority:

                    (A) first, to the Administrative Agent for any amounts due
               and payable by such Defaulting Bank to the Administrative Agent
               hereunder (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) at
               such time;

                    (B) second, to the other Banks for any amounts due and
               payable by such Defaulting Bank to the other Banks hereunder
               (solely in their capacity as Banks) at such time, ratably in
               accordance with such respective amounts due and payable to each
               other Bank (solely in its capacity as Bank) at such time; and

                    (C) third, to the Borrower for any Advances required to be
               made by such Defaulting Bank pursuant to the Commitment of such
               Defaulting Bank at such time.

     If such Defaulting Bank shall, at any time, cease to be a Defaulting Bank,
any funds held by the Administrative Agent in escrow at such time with respect
to such Defaulting Bank shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent to such
Defaulting Bank and applied by such Defaulting Bank to the amounts owing to such
Defaulting Bank at such time under this Agreement in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement.

          (d) The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Bank under this
Section 2.19 are in addition to other rights and remedies that the Borrower may
have against such Defaulting Bank with respect to any Defaulted Advance and that
the Administrative Agent or any other Bank may have against such Defaulting Bank
with respect to any Defaulted Amount.

     SECTION 2.20 Mitigation. Any Bank claiming any additional amounts payable
pursuant to Sections 2.12 or 2.18 or subject to Section 2.13 shall use its
reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory
restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office if the
making of such a change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any
such additional amounts which may thereafter accrue under Sections 2.12 or 2.18
or would avoid the unavailability of Eurocurrency Rate Advances under Section
2.13 and would not, in any such case, in the judgment of such Bank, be otherwise
disadvantageous to such Bank.

     SECTION 2.21 European Economic and Monetary Union. (a) Advances in the
Euro. If any Advance is capable of being made in either the Euro or in a
National Currency Unit, then such Advance shall be made in the Euro.

          (b) Rounding and Other Consequential Changes. Without prejudice to any
method of conversion or rounding prescribed by any legislative measures of the
Council of the European Union, each reference in this Agreement to a fixed
amount or to fixed amounts in a National Currency Unit to be paid to or by the
Administrative Agent shall, notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement and to the extent the Euro has replaced such National

                                       33

<PAGE>

Currency Unit, be replaced by a reference to such comparable and convenient
fixed amount or fixed amounts of the Euro as the Administrative Agent may from
time to time reasonably specify.

     SECTION 2.22 Increase of Aggregate Commitments. (a) The Company may from
time to time, on the terms set forth below, request that the aggregate amount of
the Commitments be increased to an amount which does not exceed $200,000,000;
provided, however, that an increase in the Commitments hereunder may only be
made at a time when (i) no Event of Default or event which, with notice or the
passage of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom and (ii) the Public Debt
Rating from S&P is at least BBB- and the Public Debt Rating from Moody's is at
least Baa3.

          (b) If the Company requests an increase in the aggregate Commitments:

               (i) each of the Banks shall be given the opportunity to
          participate in the increased aggregate Commitments (x) initially,
          ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, and (y) next, to the
          extent that the requested increase in the aggregate Commitments is not
          fulfilled pursuant to the preceding clause (x) and subject to Section
          2.22(d) below, in such additional amounts as any Bank and the Company
          agree, and

               (ii) if, after each Bank has been afforded an opportunity to
          increase its Commitment to satisfy the Company's requested increase,
          the aggregate increase in the Commitments offered by the Banks is less
          than the Company's requested increase, then the Company shall consult
          with the Administrative Agent as to the number, identity and requested
          Commitments of additional financial institutions which the Company
          may, with the written consent of the Administrative Agent (which
          consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) invite to participate in
          the aggregate Commitments.

          (c) No Bank shall have any obligation to increase its Commitment
pursuant to a request by the Company hereunder. No Bank shall be deemed to have
approved an increase in its Commitment unless such approval is in writing.
Failure on the part of any Bank to respond to a request by the Company within 30
days of such Bank's receipt of notice of such request hereunder shall be deemed
a rejection of such request.

          (d) In no event shall any Bank's Commitment, after giving effect to an
increase in its Commitment hereunder, exceed 25% of the aggregate Commitments
under this Agreement.

          (e) If the Company and one or more of the Banks (or other financial
institutions) shall agree upon such an increase in the aggregate Commitments
hereunder (i) the Company, the Administrative Agent and each Bank or other
financial institution increasing its Commitment or extending a new Commitment
shall enter into a consent in the form of Exhibit F hereto and (ii) the Company
shall furnish new Notes to each financial institution that is extending a new
Commitment and to each Bank which is increasing its Commitment. Notwithstanding
anything else to the contrary contained in Section 2.06(b), if an increase in
the aggregate Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.22 occurs during an
Interest Period for an

                                       34

<PAGE>

outstanding Committed Borrowing, (a) such Committed Borrowing may not be
continued or converted pursuant to Section 2.06(b) and (b) such Committed
Borrowing shall be due and payable at the end of the current Interest Period
applicable thereto, without prejudice to the Company's right, subject to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement, to reborrow all or any portion of the
amount of such Committed Borrowing.

basis of an Environmental Action against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
or any of their properties that could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect or (B) cause any such property to be subject to any restrictions
on ownership, occupancy, use or transferability under any Environmental Law that

Default (or any event which, with the giving of notice or the passing of time or
both would constitute an Event of Default) shall exist, and (b) in the case of
an asset sale by such a Material Subsidiary, the assets to be sold do not

the agreement or instrument relating to such Debt or other obligation; or any
other event shall occur or condition shall exist under any agreement or

                                       44

<PAGE>

instrument relating to any such Debt or other obligation and shall continue
after the applicable grace period, if any, specified in such agreement or
instrument, if the effect of such event or condition is to accelerate, or permit
the acceleration of, the maturity of such Debt or other obligation; or any Debt
or other such obligation in which the outstanding principal exceeds $50,000,000
shall be otherwise declared to be due and payable (by acceleration or otherwise)
or required to be prepaid, redeemed, defeased or otherwise repurchased by the
Company or any Material Subsidiary (other than by a regularly-scheduled required
prepayment), or any offer to prepay, redeem, defease or purchase such Debt shall

under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of
debtors, or seeking the entry of an order for relief or the appointment of a
receiver, trustee, or other similar official for it or for any substantial part
of its property, and in the event of any such proceeding instituted against the
Company or any Material Subsidiary (but not instituted by it), such proceeding

the entry of an order for relief, the appointment of a trustee or receiver, or
other action in such proceeding or result adverse to the Company or such
Material Subsidiary, as applicable; or (iii) the Company or any Material
Subsidiary shall take any corporate action to authorize any of the actions set
forth above in this subsection (f)(i)(B), (i)(C) or (ii); or

          (g) Any Person, or a group of Persons acting in concert, shall at any
time acquire, directly or indirectly, in excess of 50% of the securities having

then, and in any such event, the Administrative Agent shall at the request, or
may with the consent, of the Majority Banks, by notice to the Company, (i)
declare the obligation of each Bank to make Advances to any Borrower to be
terminated, whereupon the same shall forthwith terminate, and (ii) declare the
Notes, all interest thereon and all other amounts payable under this Agreement
to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the Notes, all such interest and all
such amounts shall become and be forthwith due and payable, without presentment,
demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly
waived by each Borrower; provided, however, that if an Event of Default under
Section 6.01(f) (other than subsection (i)(a) thereof) occurs with respect to
the Company, (A) the obligation of each Bank to make Advances to any Borrower
shall automatically be terminated and (B) the Notes, all such interest and all
such amounts shall automatically become and be due and payable, without
presentment, demand, protest or any notice of any kind, all of which are hereby
expressly waived by each Borrower.

                                  ARTICLE VII

                                   GUARANTEE

     SECTION 7.01 Unconditional Guarantee. For valuable consideration, receipt
whereof is hereby acknowledged, and to induce the Banks to make Advances to each
Borrowing Subsidiary, the Company unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to
the Banks and the Administrative Agent that the principal of and interest on
each Advance and all other amounts payable by each Borrowing Subsidiary
hereunder shall be promptly paid in full when due (whether at stated maturity,
by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof,
and, in the case of any extension of time of payment, in whole or in part, that
all such amounts shall be promptly paid when due (whether at stated maturity, by
acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension. In
addition, the Company unconditionally agrees that upon (a) default in the
payment when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of
any of such principal, interest or other amounts, the Company shall forthwith
pay the same, or (b) the occurrence and continuance of any event described in
Section 6.01(e), (f) or (i) with respect to any Borrowing Subsidiary (as if each
reference therein to "Material Subsidiary" were a reference to such Borrowing
Subsidiary), the Company shall forthwith pay all principal, interest and other
amounts payable hereunder by such Borrowing Subsidiary. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Company's liability shall extend to all amounts
that constitute part of the obligations of any Borrowing Subsidiary guaranteed
by the Company under this Article VII and would be owed by any such Borrowing
Subsidiary to any Bank or the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or the
Notes but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the
existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving such
Borrowing Subsidiary.

     SECTION 7.02 Validity. The obligations of the Company under this Article
VII are independent of the obligations of the Borrowing Subsidiaries guaranteed
hereunder, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted
against the Company to enforce its obligations under this Article VII,
irrespective of whether any action is brought against any Borrowing Subsidiary
or whether any Borrowing Subsidiary is joined in any such action or actions. The
obligations of the Company under this Article VII shall be unconditional
irrespective of (i) the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of
the obligations of the Borrowing Subsidiaries under this Agreement, any Note or
any Assumption Letter, (ii) any law,

                                       46

<PAGE>

regulation or order of any jurisdiction affecting any term of any obligation of
any Borrowing Subsidiary under this Agreement or the rights of any Bank or the
Administrative Agent with respect thereto, (iii) any change in the time, manner
or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the obligations
of any Borrowing Subsidiary guaranteed by the Company under this Article VII, or
any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from this Agreement
or the Notes, (iv) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate
structure or existence of any Borrowing Subsidiary or any of its Subsidiaries,
or (v) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any other circumstance
which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or
guarantor.

     SECTION 7.03 Waivers. The Company expressly waives promptness, diligence,
presentment, protest and any other notice with respect to the obligations of the
Company under this Article VII and any requirement that any right or power be
exhausted or any action be taken against any Borrowing Subsidiary and all
notices and demands whatsoever.

     SECTION 7.04 Subrogation. The Company shall be subrogated to the rights of
the Banks or the Administrative Agent against any Borrowing Subsidiary hereunder
only after the Banks and the Administrative Agent shall have been paid in full
all such amounts, with interest thereon, for which such Borrowing Subsidiary
shall have become indebted hereunder.

     SECTION 7.05 Acceleration. The Company agrees that, as between the Company
on the one hand, and the Banks and the Administrative Agent, on the other hand,
the obligations of each Borrowing Subsidiary guaranteed under this Article VII
may be declared to be forthwith due and payable, or may be deemed automatically
to have been accelerated, as provided in Section 6.01 hereof for purposes of
this Article VII, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition
(whether in a bankruptcy proceeding affecting such Borrowing Subsidiary or
otherwise) preventing such declaration as against such Borrowing Subsidiary and
that, in the event of such declaration or automatic acceleration, such
obligations (whether or not due and payable by such Borrowing Subsidiary) shall
forthwith become due and payable by the Company for purposes of this Article
VII.

     SECTION 7.06 Reinstatement. The Company's obligations under this Article
VII shall be reinstated if at any time any payment received by any Bank or the
Administrative Agent from any Borrowing Subsidiary hereunder is required to be
repaid or returned by such Bank or the Administrative Agent, all as though such
payment had not been made.

     SECTION 7.07 Continuing Guaranty; Assignments. This guarantee of the
Company shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the later of (i) the
cash payment in full of the obligations of any Borrowing Subsidiary guaranteed
by the Company under this Article VII and (ii) the Termination Date, (b) be
binding upon the Company, its successors and assigns and (c) inure to the
benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Banks and the Administrative Agent and
their successors, transferees and assigns (provided that the applicable
transfers and assignments are made in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement).

                    ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT; SYNDICATION AGENT;

                         DOCUMENTATION AGENT; CO-AGENTS

     SECTION 8.01 Authorization and Action. Each Bank appoints and authorizes
Bank One to act as the Administrative Agent hereunder, and each Bank irrevocably
authorizes the Administrative Agent (for so long as the Administrative Agent
remains in such capacity under this Agreement) to act as the contractual
representative of such Bank with only the rights and duties expressly set forth
herein. The Administrative Agent agrees to act as such contractual
representative upon the express conditions contained in this Article VIII.
Notwithstanding the use of the defined term "Administrative Agent," it is
expressly understood and agreed that the Administrative Agent shall not have any
fiduciary responsibilities to any Bank by reason of this Agreement and that the
Administrative Agent is merely acting as the representative of the Banks with
only those duties as are expressly set forth in this Agreement. In its capacity
as the Banks' contractual representative, the Administrative Agent (i) does not
assume any fiduciary duties to any of the Banks, (ii) is a "representative" of
the Banks within the meaning of Section 9-105 of the Uniform Commercial Code and
(iii) is acting as an independent contractor, the rights and duties of which are
limited to those expressly set forth in this Agreement. Each Bank agrees to
assert no claim against the Administrative Agent on any agency theory or any
other theory of liability for breach of fiduciary duty, all of which claims each
Bank waives. The Administrative Agent shall have and may exercise such powers
under this Agreement as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent
by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental
hereto. The Administrative Agent shall have no implied duties to the Banks, or
any obligation to the Banks to take any action hereunder, except any action
specifically provided by this Agreement to be taken by the Administrative Agent.
As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement (including,
without limitation, enforcement or collection of the Notes), the Administrative
Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but
shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected
in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Majority
Banks, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Banks and all holders of
the Notes; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be
required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent to personal
liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law. The
Administrative Agent agrees to give to each Bank prompt notice of each notice
given to it by any Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The
Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties as Administrative Agent
hereunder and under any other instrument, document or agreement executed in
connection herewith by or through employees, agents, and attorney-in-fact and
shall not be answerable to the Banks, except as to money or securities received
by it or its authorized agents, for the default or misconduct of any such agents
or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. Without limiting the
foregoing, the Administrative Agent may appoint any Affiliate as its agent for
all matters relating to Advances made in Alternative Currencies. Each such agent
shall be entitled to all of the rights and benefits granted to the
Administrative Agent hereunder, and each Bank shall treat any notice given by
any such agent as if it had been given directly by the Administrative Agent.

     SECTION 8.02 Administrative Agent's Reliance, Etc. Neither the
Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees
shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under
or in connection with this Agreement, except for its or their own gross
negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the

                                       48

<PAGE>

foregoing, the Administrative Agent: (i) may treat the payee of any Note as the
holder thereof until the Administrative Agent receives and accepts an assignment
agreement entered into by the Bank that is the payee of such Note, as assignor,
and a Purchaser, as assignee, as provided in Section 9.03; (ii) may consult with
legal counsel (including counsel for any Borrower), independent public
accountants and other experts selected by it 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; (iii) makes no warranty or
representation to any Bank and shall not be responsible to any Bank for any
statements, warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in or
in connection with this Agreement; (iv) shall not have any duty to ascertain or
to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or
conditions of this Agreement on the part of any Borrower or to inspect the
property (including the books and records) of any Borrower; (v) shall not be
responsible to any Bank for the due execution, legality, validity,
enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other
instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (vi) shall not have any duty
to ascertain, inquire into or verify the financial condition of the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries; (vii) shall have no duty to disclose to the Banks
information that is not required to be furnished by the Company to the
Administrative Agent at such time, but is voluntarily furnished by the Company
to the Administrative Agent (either in its capacity as Administrative Agent or
in its individual capacity); and (viii) shall incur no liability under or in
respect of this Agreement by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or
other instrument or writing (which may be by telegram) believed by it to be
genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties. The Administrative
Agent shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning the contractual
arrangement between the Administrative Agent and the Banks and all matters
pertaining to the Administrative Agent's duties hereunder.

     SECTION 8.03 The Administrative Agent and Affiliates. With respect to any
financial institution which shall become the Administrative Agent hereunder, and
with respect to such financial institution's Commitment and the Advances made by
it, such financial institution shall have the same rights and powers under this
Agreement as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not the
Administrative Agent; and the term "Bank" or "Banks" shall, unless otherwise
expressly indicated, include such financial institution in its individual
capacity, if applicable. Each such financial institution and its affiliates may
accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, and
generally engage in any kind of business with, any Borrower, any of their
respective Subsidiaries and any Person who may do business with or own
securities of any Borrower or any such Subsidiary, all as if such financial
institution were not the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account
therefor to the Banks.

     SECTION 8.04 Bank Credit Decision; Notice of Default. Each Bank
acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent or any other Bank and based on the financial statements
referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has
deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this
Agreement. Each Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without
reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Bank and based on such
documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to
make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this
Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or
notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default, or an event which would
constitute an Event of Default but for the requirement that notice be given or

                                       49

<PAGE>

time elapse or both, unless the Agent has received written notice from a Bank or
the Company referring to this Agreement describing such Event of Default, or
such event which would constitute an Event of Default but for the requirement
that notice be given or time elapse or both, and stating that such notice is a
"notice of default". In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a
notice, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Banks.

     SECTION 8.05 Indemnification. The Banks agree to indemnify the
Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers), ratably
according to the respective principal amounts of the Notes held by each of them
(or, if no Notes are outstanding at the time or if any Notes are held by Persons
that are not Banks, ratably according to the respective amounts of their
Commitments) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements
of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or
asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out
of this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent
under this Agreement; provided that no Bank shall be liable for any portion of
such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent any of the foregoing is
found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to
have resulted from the Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful
misconduct. Without limiting the foregoing, each Bank agrees to reimburse the
Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any
out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by the Administrative
Agent in connection with the administration, modification, amendment or
enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of,
or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement,
to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses
by the Borrowers. The obligation of the Banks under this Section 8.05 shall
survive payment of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

     SECTION 8.06 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may
resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Banks and the Company
and may be removed at any time with or without cause by the Majority Banks. Upon
any such resignation or removal, the Majority Banks shall have the right to
appoint another Bank as successor Administrative Agent or, if acceptable to the
Company, any other commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States
of America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of
at least $500,000,000. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so
appointed by the Majority Banks, and shall have accepted such appointment,
within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of
resignation or the Majority Banks remove the retiring Administrative Agent, then
the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Banks, appoint a
successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized under
the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having a
combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000 and otherwise acceptable
to the Company. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent
hereunder 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 under
this Agreement. After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation or removal
hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article VIII shall
inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while
it was Administrative Agent.

<PAGE>

     SECTION 8.07 Syndication Agent; Documentation Agent; Managing Agent. The
Banks identified in this Agreement as the Syndication Agent, the Documentation
Agent or the Managing Agent shall not have any right, power, obligation,
liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those
applicable to all Banks as such. Without limiting the foregoing, such Banks
shall not have or be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship with any Bank. Each
Bank hereby makes the same acknowledgments with respect to such Banks as it
makes with respect to the Administrative Agent in Section 8.04.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS; PARTICIPATIONS
                -------------------------------------------------

     SECTION 9.01 Successors and Assigns. The terms and provisions of this
Agreement and the Notes shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
Company and the Banks and their respective successors and assigns permitted
hereby, except that (a) neither the Company nor any Borrowing Subsidiary shall
have the right to assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement and the
Notes without the prior written consent of each Bank, (b) any assignment by any
Bank must be made in compliance with Section 9.03, and (c) any transfer by
participation must be made in compliance with Section 9.02. Any attempted
assignment or transfer by any party not made in compliance with this Section
9.01 shall be null and void, unless such attempted assignment or transfer is
treated as a participation in accordance with Section 9.02. The parties to this
Agreement acknowledge that clause (b) of this Section 9.01 relates only to
absolute assignments and this Section 9.01 does not prohibit assignments
creating security interests, including, without limitation, (x) any pledge or
assignment by any Bank of all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement
and any Note to a Federal Reserve Bank or (y) in the case of a Bank which is a
Fund, any pledge or assignment of all or any portion of its rights under this
Agreement and any Note to its trustee in support of its obligations to its
trustee; provided, that no such pledge or assignment creating a security
interest shall release the transferor Bank from its obligations hereunder unless
and until the parties thereto have complied with the provisions of Section 9.03
and no Person acquiring any interest in any pledge or assignment creating a
security interest shall be entitled to exercise any voting rights hereunder. The
Administrative Agent may treat the Person which made any Advance or which holds
any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until such
Person complies with Section 9.03; provided, that the Administrative Agent may
in its discretion (but shall not be required to) follow instructions from the
Person which made any Advance or which holds any Note to direct payments
relating to such Advance or Note to another Person. Any assignee of the rights
to any Advance or any Note agrees by acceptance of such assignment to be bound
by all the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the Notes. Any request,
authority or consent of any Person, who at the time of making such request or
giving such authority or consent is the owner of the rights to any Advance
(whether or not a Note has been issued in evidence thereof), shall be conclusive
and binding on any subsequent holder or assignee of the rights to such Advance.

     SECTION 9.02 Participations.

          9.02.1 Permitted Participants; Effect. Any Bank may at any time sell
to one or more banks or other entities ("Participants") participating interests
in any Loan owing to such

                                       51

<PAGE>

Bank, any Note held by such Bank, any Commitment of such Bank or any other
interest of such Bank under this Agreement and the Notes. In the event of any
such sale by a Bank of participating interests to a Participant, such Bank's
obligations under this Agreement and the Notes shall remain unchanged, such Bank
shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance
of such obligations, such Bank shall remain the owner of its Advances and the
holder of any Note issued to it in evidence thereof for all purposes under this
Agreement and the Notes, all amounts payable by the Borrowers under this
Agreement shall be determined as if such Bank had not sold such participating
interests, and the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal
solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank's rights and
obligations under this Agreement and the Notes.

          9.02.2 Voting Rights. Each Bank shall retain the sole right to
approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, modification or
waiver of any provision of this Agreement and the Notes other than any
amendment, modification or waiver with respect to any Advance or Commitment in
which such Participant has an interest which would require consent of all of the
Banks pursuant to the terms of Section 10.01.

          9.02.3 Benefit of Certain Provisions. The Company agrees that each
Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff provided in Section 9.05
in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement
and the Notes to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest
were owing directly to it as a Bank under this Agreement and the Notes;
provided, that each Bank shall retain the right of setoff provided in Section
9.05 with respect to the amount of participating interests sold to each
Participant to the extent not applied by such Participant. The Banks agree to
share with each Participant, and each Participant, by exercising the right of
setoff provided in Section 9.05, agrees to share with each Bank, any amount
received pursuant to the exercise of its right of setoff, such amounts to be
shared in accordance with Section 2.15 as if each Participant were a Bank. The
Company further agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits
of Sections 2.02(d), 2.11, 2.12 and 2.18 to the same extent as if it were a Bank
and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 9.03; provided,
that (a) a Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment
under Section 2.02(d), 2.11, 2.12 or 2.18 than the Bank who sold the
participating interest to such Participant would have received had it retained
such interest for its own account, unless the sale of such interest to such
Participant is made with the prior written consent of the Company, and (b) any
Participant not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or
any State thereof agrees to comply with the provisions of Section 2.18 to the
same extent as if it were a Bank.

     SECTION 9.03 Assignments.

          9.03.1 Permitted Assignments. Any Bank may at any time assign to one
or more banks or other entities ("Purchasers") all or any part of its rights and
obligations under this Agreement and the Notes. Such assignment shall be
substantially in the form of Exhibit A or in such other form as may be agreed to
by the parties thereto. Each such assignment with respect to a Purchaser which
is not a Bank or an Affiliate of a Bank shall either be in an amount equal to
the entire applicable Commitment and Advances of the assigning Bank or (unless
each of the Company (unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing)
and the Administrative Agent otherwise consents) be in an aggregate amount not
less than the lesser of (a) $10,000,000

                                       52

<PAGE>

or (b) the remaining amount of the assigning Bank's Commitment. The amount of
the assignment shall be based on the Commitment or outstanding Advances (if the
Commitment has been terminated) subject to the assignment, determined as of the
date of such assignment or as of the "Trade Date," if the "Trade Date" is
specified in the assignment. Any assignment required pursuant to Section 2.05(b)
shall also be made pursuant to this Section 9.03.

          9.03.2 Consents. The consent of the Company shall be required prior to
an assignment becoming effective unless the Purchaser is a Bank or an Affiliate
of a Bank; provided, that the consent of the Company shall not be required if an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or if the assignment is in
connection with the physical settlement of credit derivative transactions and
the Administrative Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to give
prompt notice to the Company of any such assignment. The consent of the
Administrative Agent shall be required prior to an assignment becoming effective
unless the Purchaser is a Bank or an Affiliate of a Bank. Any consent required
under this Section 9.03.2 shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

          9.03.3 Effect; Effective Date. Upon (a) delivery to the Administrative
Agent of an assignment, together with any consents required by Sections 9.03.1
and 9.03.2, and (b) payment of a $3,500 fee to the Administrative Agent for
processing such assignment (unless such fee is waived by the Administrative
Agent), such assignment shall become effective on the effective date specified
in such assignment. The assignment shall contain a representation by the
Purchaser to the effect that none of the consideration used to make the purchase
of the Commitment and Advances under the applicable assignment agreement
constitutes "plan assets" as defined under ERISA and that the rights and
interests of the Purchaser in and under this Agreement and the Notes will not be
"plan assets" under ERISA. On and after the effective date of such assignment,
such Purchaser shall for all purposes be a Bank party to this Agreement and
shall have all the rights and obligations of a Bank under this Agreement and the
Notes, to the same extent as if it were an original party thereto, and the
transferor Bank shall be released with respect to the Commitment and Advances
assigned to such Purchaser without any further consent or action by the Company,
the Banks or the Administrative Agent. In the case of an assignment covering all
of the assigning Bank's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Bank
shall cease to be a Bank hereunder but shall continue to be entitled to the
benefits of, and subject to, those provisions of this Agreement which survive
payment of the Obligations and termination of the applicable agreement. Any
assignment or transfer by a Bank of rights or obligations under this Agreement
that does not comply with this Section 9.03.3 shall be treated for purposes of
this Agreement as a sale by such Bank of a participation in such rights and
obligations in accordance with Section 9.03.2. Upon the consummation of any
assignment to a Purchaser pursuant to this Section 9.03.3, the transferor Bank,
the Administrative Agent and the Company shall, if the transferor Bank or the
Purchaser desires that its Advances be evidenced by Notes, make appropriate
arrangements so that new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes are issued
to such transferor Bank and new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes, are
issued to such Purchaser, in each case in principal amounts reflecting their
respective Commitments, as adjusted pursuant to such assignment.

          9.03.4 Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this
purpose as an agent of the Company, shall maintain at one of its offices in
Chicago, Illinois a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a
register for the recordation of the names and

                                       53

<PAGE>

addresses of the Banks, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the
Advances owing to, each Bank pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the
"Register"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all
purposes, absent manifest error, and the Company, the Administrative Agent and
the Banks may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant
to the terms hereof as a Bank hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement,
notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for
inspection by the Company and any Bank, at any reasonable time and from time to
time upon reasonable prior notice.

     SECTION 9.04 Dissemination of Information. The Company authorizes each Bank
to disclose to any Participant or Purchaser or any other Person acquiring an
interest in this Agreement and the Notes by operation of law (each a
"Transferee") and any prospective Transferee any and all information in such
Bank's possession concerning the creditworthiness of the Company and its
Subsidiaries; provided, that each Transferee and prospective Transferee agrees
to be bound by Section 10.09 of this Agreement.

     SECTION 9.05 Tax Treatment. If any interest in this Agreement or any Note
is transferred to any Transferee which is not incorporated under the laws of the
United States or any State thereof, the transferor Bank shall cause such
Transferee, concurrently with the effectiveness of such transfer, to comply with
the provisions of Section 2.18.

                                   ARTICLE X

                                  MISCELLANEOUS
                                  -------------

     SECTION 10.01 Amendments, Etc. No amendment or waiver of any provision of
this Agreement or the Notes, nor any consent to any departure by any Borrower
therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing
and signed by the Majority Banks, and then such waiver or consent shall be
effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which
given; provided, however, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in
writing and signed by all the Banks, directly do any of the following: (i) waive
any of the conditions specified in Section 3.01 or 5.04, (ii) increase or extend
the Commitments of the Banks (except pursuant to Section 2.22)or subject the
Banks to any additional obligations, (iii) reduce the principal of, or the
stated rate at which interest accrues on, the Notes or reduce the stated rate at
which the Facility Fee and the Utilization Fee are calculated, (iv) postpone any
date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Committed
Advances or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, (v) change the
percentage of the Commitments, or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of
the Notes, or the number of Banks which shall be required for the Banks or any
of them to take any action hereunder or (vi) amend this Section 10.01; provided,
further, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and
signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to the Banks required above to
take such action, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under
this Agreement or any Note.

     SECTION 10.02 Notices, Etc. (a) All notices and other communications
provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including telegraphic or telecopy
communication) and mailed, telegraphed, telecopied or delivered,

                                       54

<PAGE>

               (i) if to the Company, at its address at 77 West Wacker Drive,
     Chicago, Illinois 60601 Attention: Treasurer, telecopy number (312)
     326-8557;

               (ii) if to any Borrowing Subsidiary, at the address specified in
     the Assumption Letter pursuant to which it became a Borrowing Subsidiary,
     with a copy to the Company at the address specified herein; provided that
     any such notice may be given solely to the Company, at the option of the
     party giving such notice;

               (iii) if to any bank listed on the signature pages hereof, at its
     Domestic Lending Office specified opposite its name on Schedule I hereto;

               (iv) if to any other Bank, at its Domestic Lending Office
     specified in the assignment agreement pursuant to which it became a Bank;

               (v) if to the Administrative Agent, at the Domestic Lending
     Office specified opposite its name on Schedule I hereto;

or as to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, at such other address as
shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties, and
as to each such other party, at such other address as shall be designated by
such party in a written notice to the Company and the Administrative Agent. All
such notices and communications shall, when sent by overnight courier, mailed or
telecopied, be effective when delivered to such courier, deposited in the mails,
or telecopied and confirmed by return telecopy, respectively, except that
notices and communications to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Articles II,
III and VIII shall not be effective until received by the Administrative Agent.
Notices hereunder to the Company shall not be given by electronic mail.

     (b) If any notice required under this Agreement is permitted to be made,
and is made, by telephone, actions taken or omitted to be taken in reliance
thereon by the Administrative Agent or by any Bank shall be binding upon the
Company and each other Borrower notwithstanding any inconsistency between the
notice provided by telephone and any subsequent writing in confirmation thereof
provided to the Administrative Agent or such Bank; provided that any such action
taken or omitted to be taken by the Administrative Agent or such Bank shall have
been in good faith and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

     SECTION 10.03 No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Bank or
the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right
hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein
provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

     SECTION 10.04 Costs and Expenses. (a) The Company agrees to pay on demand
all reasonable, documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Arranger and
the Administrative Agent (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and
expenses of counsel), in connection with any amendments, modifications or
waivers of the provisions hereof, or in determining the rights and obligations
of the parties hereto under this Agreement and the Notes, or the enforcement
(whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of this Agreement
and the other documents to be delivered hereunder; provided that if, in the
event of

                                       55

<PAGE>

any enforcement undertaken by the Banks hereunder, it shall be determined that
sufficient conflicts exist such that a single law firm engaged by the
Administrative Agent or the Majority Banks is precluded by law or by standards
of conduct from representing the Banks as a group, and such conflicts would
exist with respect to any other law firm representing the Banks as a group, the
Company agrees to pay on demand all reasonable, documented out-of-pocket costs
and expenses of each Bank, if any (including, without limitation, reasonable
fees and expenses of counsel), in connection with such enforcement undertaking.

          (b) The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent such fees as
shall have been agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the Company in a
separate agreement regarding the provision by the Administrative Agent of
services as Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

     SECTION 10.05 Right of Set-off. Upon (i) the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default and (ii) the declaration that the Advances
are due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, each Bank is
authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or
demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any
time owing by such Bank to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower
against any and all of the obligations of such Borrower now or hereafter
existing under this Agreement and the Notes held by such Bank, irrespective of
whether or not such Bank shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such
Notes and although such obligations may be unmatured. Each Bank shall promptly
notify the Company after any such set-off and application made by such Bank,
provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of
such set-off and application. The rights of each Bank under this Section are in
addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other
rights of set-off) which such Bank may have.

     SECTION 10.06 Binding Effect. This Agreement (other than Sections 2.01 and
2.03, which shall only become effective upon satisfaction of the conditions set
forth in Section 3.01) shall become effective when it shall have been executed
by the Company and the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent
shall have been notified by each bank listed on the signature pages hereof that
it has executed this Agreement and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of the Company, the Administrative Agent and each Bank and their
respective successors and assigns, except that neither the Company nor any
Borrowing Subsidiary shall have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any
interest herein without the prior written consent of the Banks.

     SECTION 10.07 Governing Law. This Agreement and the Notes shall be governed
by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Illinois.

     SECTION 10.08 Execution in 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 all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

     SECTION 10.09 Confidentiality. Each Bank agrees that it will use reasonable
efforts to keep confidential any information from time to time supplied to it by
the Company

                                       56

<PAGE>

which the Company designates in writing at the time of its delivery to the Bank
is to be treated confidentially; provided, however, that nothing herein shall
affect the disclosure of any such information to: (i) the extent required by
statute, rule, regulation or judicial process; (ii) counsel for any Bank or to
their respective accountants; (iii) bank examiners and auditors; (iv) any
Affiliate of such Bank; (v) any other Bank, or, subject to Section 9.04, any
Transferee or prospective Transferee; or (vi) any other Person in connection
with any litigation to which any one or more of the Banks is a party; provided
further, however, that each Bank agrees that it will use reasonable efforts to
promptly notify the Company of any request for information under this clause
(vi) or with respect to any request for information not enumerated in this
Section 10.09, if not otherwise prohibited from doing so.

     SECTION 10.10 Non-Reliance by the Banks. Each Bank by its signature to this
Agreement represents and warrants that (i) it has not relied in the extension of
the credit contemplated by this Agreement, nor will it rely in the maintenance
thereof, upon any assets of the Company or its Subsidiaries consisting of Margin
Stock as collateral and (ii) after reviewing the financial statements of the
Company and its Consolidated Subsidiaries referred to in Section 4.01(e), such
Bank has concluded therefrom that the consolidated cash flow of the Company and
its Consolidated Subsidiaries is sufficient to support the credit extended to
the Company pursuant to this Agreement.

     SECTION 10.11 No Indirect Security. Notwithstanding any Section or
provision of this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall
restrict or limit the right or ability of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
to pledge, mortgage, sell, assign, or otherwise encumber or dispose of any
Margin Stock.

     SECTION 10.12 Indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless the Administrative Agent, each Bank, and their respective officers,
directors, employees and agents (any one of the foregoing being an "Indemnified
Party" and any two or more of the foregoing being "Indemnified Parties") from
and against, and pay the Indemnified Parties the amount of, any and all claims,
damages, liabilities, and reasonable, documented out-of-pocket costs and
expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of
counsel) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against an Indemnified
Party relating in whole or in part to this Agreement, the Notes, any documents
delivered in connection herewith and the transactions contemplated hereby, and
in connection with or arising out of or by reason of, or in connection with the
preparation of a defense of, any investigation, litigation or proceeding brought
by a Person other than the Indemnified Parties or the Company and its
Subsidiaries, arising out of, related to or in connection with (i) this
Agreement, the Notes, any of the transactions contemplated herein or the use or
proposed use of the proceeds of any Advances, (ii) any acquisition or proposed
acquisition by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of all or any portion of
the stock or all or substantially all of the assets of any Person, or (iii) the
actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials on any property of the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries or any Environmental Action relating to any of them,
in each case whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is
brought by the Company, any other Borrower, their respective shareholders or
creditors, an Indemnified Party or any other Person, and whether or not an
Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto, provided, however, that this
indemnification shall not apply to any claim, damage, liability, cost or expense
that is found in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent
jurisdiction to have resulted from an

Indemnified Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct. The covenants of the
Company contained in this Section 10.12 and in Sections 10.04, 2.11, 2.12 and
2.19 shall survive the repayment of all amounts due and payable under this
Agreement and the termination of this Agreement.

     SECTION 10.13 Partial Invalidity. Wherever possible, each provision hereof
shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under
applicable law, but in case any one or more of the provisions contained herein
shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
respect, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent, but only to the
extent, of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without invalidating
the remainder of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or provisions
or any other provisions hereof, unless such a construction would be
unreasonable.

     SECTION 10.14 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY
WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO HAVE A JURY PARTICIPATE IN RESOLVING ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER
SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED
TO OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED AMONG THEM IN CONNECTION WITH
THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THE ACTIONS OF THE
COMPANY, ANY BORROWING SUBSIDIARY, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY BANK IN THE
NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT THEREOF. EACH OF THE
PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION
SHALL BE DECIDED BY BENCH TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT ANY PARTY HERETO MAY
FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS
WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR
RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

     SECTION 10.15 Jurisdiction, Etc. (a) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably
and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive
jurisdiction of any Illinois state court or federal court of the United States
of America sitting in Chicago, Illinois, and any appellate court from any
thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Agreement or the Notes, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and
each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all
claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined
in any such Illinois state court 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 may otherwise
have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the Notes
in the courts of any jurisdiction.

          (b) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives,
to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that
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 or the Notes in any
Illinois state or federal court. Each of the parties hereto

                                       58

<PAGE>

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.

     SECTION 10.16 Nonliability of Banks. The relationship between the Borrowers
on the one hand and the Banks and the Administrative Agent on the other hand
shall be solely that of borrower and lender. Neither the Administrative Agent,
the Arranger nor any Bank shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to the
Borrower. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Arranger nor any Bank undertakes
any responsibility to the Borrowers to review or inform the Borrowers of any
matter in connection with any phase of the Borrowers' business or operations.
Neither the Administrative Agent, the Arranger nor any Bank shall have any
liability with respect to, and the Borrowers waive, release and agree not to sue
for, any special, indirect or consequential damages suffered by the Borrowers in
connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to this Agreement or the
transactions contemplated thereby.

     SECTION 10.17 Termination of Existing Agreement. The Company and the Banks
hereto constituting the Majority Banks under the Five-Year Credit Agreement (the
"Existing Agreement") dated December 11, 1998 among the Company, the banks named
therein and Bank One, NA, as agent, agree that the Existing Agreement is hereby
terminated and shall be of no further force and effect.

                                   LITIGATION

Jones, et al. v. R.R. Donnelley & Sons Co.
------------------------------------------

On November 25, 1996, a class action was brought against the Company in federal
district court in Chicago, Illinois, on behalf of current and former
African-American employees, alleging that the Company racially discriminated
against them in violation of the Civil Rights Act of 1871, as amended, and the
U.S. Constitution. The complaint seeks declaratory and injunctive relief, and
asks for actual, compensatory, consequential and punitive damages in an amount
not less than $500 million.

Adams, et al. v. R.R. Donnelley & Sons Co.
------------------------------------------

On June 30, 1998, a class action was filed against the Company in federal
district court in Chicago, Illinois on behalf of current and former
African-American employees, alleging that the Company racially discriminated
against them in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. While
making many of the same general discrimination claims contained in the Jones
case above, the Adams plaintiffs are also claiming retaliation by the Company
for the filing of discrimination charges or otherwise complaining of race
discrimination. The complaint seeks the same relief and damages as sought in the
Jones case.

Gerlib, et al. v. R.R. Donnelley & Sons Co.
-------------------------------------------

On December 18, 1995, a class action was filed against the Company in federal
district court in Chicago, Illinois alleging that older workers were
discriminated against in selection for termination upon the closing of the
Chicago catalog operations. The suit also alleged that the Company violated the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) in determining benefits payable
to retiring or terminated employees. The age claim has been decided in favor of
the Company but an appeal is expected. The plaintiffs have made no claim for a
specific amount of damages in connection with the age claim. The ERISA claims in
Gerlib and the Jefferson case described below are related and the court has
ruled in the Company's favor on certain claims and in the plaintiffs favor on
other claims. The ruling is subject to appeal and the Company's approximate
liability for these claims is $14 million.

Jefferson, et al. v. R.R. Donnelley & Sons Co.
----------------------------------------------

On December 28, 2000, a purported class action was brought against the Company
and certain of its benefit plans in federal district court in Chicago, Illinois
on behalf of certain former employees of the Chicago catalog operations. The
suit alleges that enhanced pension benefits were not paid to plaintiffs and that
plaintiffs are being required to contribute to the costs of retiree medical
coverage, both in violation of plan documents and ERISA. The complaint seeks
recalculation of pension benefits due plaintiffs since their retirement dates,
reimbursement of any amounts paid by plaintiffs for medical coverage, interest
on the foregoing amounts, as well as a declaration as to the benefits due
plaintiffs in the future. The retiree medical claim has been

<PAGE>

decided in favor of the Company but is subject to appeal. Had the Company lost
in the original suit involving the retiree medical claim, the award would have
been approximately $20 million.

extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or
hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising

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.

                        Opinion of Counsel to the Company

                                October 10, 2002

To each of the Banks parties to
the "Five Year Credit Agreement" (as defined below),
and to Bank One, NA, as Administrative Agent

     Re:  R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     We have acted as counsel to R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company, a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the Five Year Credit Agreement
of even date herewith (the "Five Year Credit Agreement") among the Company, the
financial institutions parties thereto (the "Banks") and Bank One, NA, as
Administrative Agent, and the transactions contemplated thereby.

     This opinion is furnished to you at the request of the Company pursuant to
Section 3.01(a)(v) of the Five Year Credit Agreement. Capitalized terms used
herein and not otherwise defined are used as defined in the Five Year Credit
Agreement.

     In connection with this opinion, we have examined originals or copies,
certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of the Five Year Credit
Agreement and the promissory notes delivered on the date hereof to the Banks
signatory to the Five Year Credit Agreement (the "Notes").

     In rendering the opinions set forth herein, we have also examined originals
or copies, certified to our satisfaction, of such (i) certificates of public
officials, (ii) certificates of officers and representatives of the Company, and
(iii) other documents and records, and we have made such inquiries of officers
and representatives of the Company, as we have deemed relevant or necessary as
the basis for such opinions. We have relied as to factual matters upon, and
assumed the accuracy of, such certificates, the representations and warranties
of the Company made in the Five Year Credit Agreement, and other statements,
documents and records supplied to us by the Company, and we have assumed the
genuineness of all signatures (other than signatures of officers of the Company)
and the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the
conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified
or photostatic copies.

     In rendering the opinions set forth herein, we have assumed that:

     (i) all the parties to the Five Year Credit Agreement, other than the
Company, are duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the
laws of their respective

                               Exhibit G - Page 1

<PAGE>

jurisdictions of organization and have the requisite corporate power to enter
into the Five Year Credit Agreement; and

     (ii) the execution and delivery of the Five Year Credit Agreement have been
duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and proceedings on the part of
all parties thereto other than the Company; the Five Year Credit Agreement has
been duly executed and delivered by all parties thereto and constitutes the
valid and binding obligation of all parties thereto other than the Company,
enforceable against such parties in accordance with its terms.

     Based upon the foregoing and subject to the qualifications stated herein,
we are of the opinion that, as of the date hereof:

     1. The Company has been duly organized and is validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company has the requisite
corporate power and authority to conduct its business as currently conducted.

     2. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to execute,
deliver and perform its obligations under the Five Year Credit Agreement and the
Notes. Such execution, delivery and performance:

        (a) have been duly authorized by all necessary and proper corporate
action of the Company,

        (b) do not violate any provision of the certificate of incorporation or
by-laws of the Company or require any approval of the Company's stockholders,

        (c) do not violate the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware,
any law or regulation of the State of Illinois (including, without limitation,
any usury laws) or of the United States of America applicable to the Company,

        (d) do not contravene that certain Indenture dated as of November 1,
1990, between the Company and Citibank, N.A., as Trustee, or, to our knowledge,
any other material agreement or instrument binding on the Company.

     3. The Five Year Credit Agreement constitutes, and from and after the
initial Committed Borrowing the Committed Notes will constitute, the valid and
binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their
respective terms.

     4. No approval, consent or authorization of, or filing or registration
with, any governmental department, agency or instrumentality is necessary for
the Company's execution or delivery of the Five Year Credit Agreement or the
Notes, or for the Company's performance of any of the terms thereof.

     Our opinions above are subject to the following qualifications:

        (a) Our opinions relating to validity, binding effect and enforceability
in Paragraph 3 above are subject to limitations imposed by any applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium and
similar laws affecting creditors' rights

                               Exhibit G - Page 2

<PAGE>

generally. In addition, our opinions relating to enforceability in paragraph 3
above are subject to (i) the effect of general principles of equity (regardless
of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (ii) limitations
imposed by public policy under certain circumstances on the enforceability of
provisions indemnifying a party against liability for its own wrongful or
negligent acts. In applying principles of equity referred to in clause (i)
above, a court, among other things, might not allow a creditor to accelerate
maturity of a debt upon the occurrence of a default deemed immaterial. Such
principles applied by a court might include a requirement that a creditor act
reasonably and in good faith.

        (b) Certain remedial and waiver provisions of the Five Year Credit
Agreement may be unenforceable in whole or in part, but the inclusion of such
provisions does not affect the validity of the Five Year Credit Agreement;
however, the unenforceability of such provisions may result in delays in the
enforcement of the Administrative Agent's and the Banks' rights and remedies
under the Five Year Credit Agreement (and we express no opinion as to the
economic consequences, if any, of such delays).

        (c) We express no opinion as to the effect of the compliance or
noncompliance of the Administrative Agent or any of the Banks with any state or
federal laws or regulations applicable to the Administrative Agent or any of the
Banks because of the Administrative Agent's or any of the Banks' legal or
regulatory status, the nature of the business of the Administrative Agent or any
of the Banks or the qualification of any such party to conduct business in any
jurisdiction.

     The foregoing opinions are limited to the laws of the United States, the
State of Illinois and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, and
we express no opinion with respect to the laws of any other state or
jurisdiction.

     Whenever in this opinion reference is made to our knowledge, such reference
is to the conscious awareness of [insert appropriate names] of information
regarding factual matters. With respect to such matters, such persons have not,
with your express permission and consent, undertaken any investigation or
inquiry either of other lawyers, files maintained by the firm, or officers or
employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (including without
limitation the Borrowing Subsidiary). The reference to "conscious awareness" as
used in this paragraph has the meaning given that phrase in the Third-Party
Legal Opinion Report, Including the Legal Opinion Accord, of the Section of
Business Law, American Bar Association, 47 Bus. Law. 167, 192 (1991). The
opinions expressed herein are being delivered to you as of the date hereof and
are solely for your benefit in connection with the transactions contemplated in
the Five Year Credit Agreement and may not be relied on in any manner or for any
purpose by any other person, nor any copies published, communicated or otherwise
made available in whole or in part to any other person or entity without our
express prior written consent, except that you may furnish copies thereof to
each party that becomes a Bank after the date hereof pursuant to the Five Year
Credit Agreement, and such parties may rely on this opinion as if it had been
originally addressed to them.

     We do not express any opinion, either implicitly or otherwise, on any issue
not expressly addressed in numbered Paragraphs 1 through 4. The opinions
expressed above are based solely on facts, laws and regulations existing and in
effect on the date hereof, and we assume no

                               Exhibit G - Page 3

<PAGE>

obligation to revise or supplement this opinion should such facts change or
should such laws or regulations be changed by legislative or regulatory action,
judicial decision or otherwise, notwithstanding that such changes may affect the
legal analysis or conclusions contained in this opinion.

                                        Very truly yours,

                  Opinion of Counsel to a Borrowing Subsidiary

                                     [Date]

To each of the Banks parties to
the "Five Year Credit Agreement" (as defined below),
and to Bank One, NA, as Administrative Agent

     Re:  [Borrowing Subsidiary]

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     We have acted as counsel to R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company, a Delaware
corporation (the "Company") and __________________, a ___________ corporation
and Subsidiary of the Company (the "Borrowing Subsidiary"), in connection with
the Five Year Credit Agreement dated as of October 10, 2002 (as the same has
been or may be amended, modified or supplemented, the "Five Year Credit
Agreement") among the Company, the financial institutions parties thereto (the
"Banks") and Bank One, NA, as Administrative Agent, and the transactions
contemplated thereby.

     This opinion is furnished to you at the request of the Company pursuant to
Section 3.02(e) of the Five Year Credit Agreement. Capitalized terms used herein
and not otherwise defined are used as defined in the Five Year Credit Agreement.

     In connection with this opinion, we have examined originals or copies,
certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of the Five Year Credit
Agreement, the Assumption Letter of even date herewith executed by the Borrowing
Subsidiary and delivered to the Banks (the "Assumption Letter") and the
promissory notes executed by the Borrowing Subsidiary on the date hereof and
delivered to the Banks (the "Notes").

     In rendering the opinions set forth herein, we have also examined originals
or copies, certified to our satisfaction, of such (i) certificates of public
officials, (ii) certificates of officers and representatives of the Company and
the Borrowing Subsidiary (including the certificate attached hereto (the
"Certificate")), and (iii) other documents and records, and we have made such
inquiries of officers and representatives of the Company and the Borrowing
Subsidiary, as we have deemed relevant or necessary as the basis for such
opinions. We have relied as to factual matters upon, and assumed the accuracy
of, such certificates, the representations and warranties of the Company and the
Borrowing Subsidiary made (or deemed made) in the Five Year Credit Agreement and
the Assumption Letter, and other statements, documents and records supplied to
us by the Company and the Borrowing Subsidiary, and we have assumed the
genuineness of all signatures (other than signatures of officers of the
Borrowing Subsidiary) and the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as
originals and the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to
us as certified or photostatic copies.

                               Exhibit H - Page 1

<PAGE>

     In rendering the opinions set forth herein, we have assumed that:

     (i) all the parties to the Five Year Credit Agreement and the Assumption
Letter, other than the Borrowing Subsidiary, are duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of their respective jurisdictions
of organization and have the requisite corporate power to enter into the Five
Year Credit Agreement and the Assumption Letter; and

     (ii) the execution and delivery of the Five Year Credit Agreement have been
duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and proceedings on the part of
all parties thereto; the Five Year Credit Agreement has been duly executed and
delivered by all parties thereto and constitutes the valid and binding
obligation of all parties thereto, other than the Borrowing Subsidiary,
enforceable against such parties in accordance with its terms.

     Based upon the foregoing and subject to the qualifications stated herein,
we are of the opinion that, as of the date hereof:

     1. The Borrowing Subsidiary has been duly organized and is validly existing
and in good standing under the laws of _____________. The Borrowing Subsidiary
has the requisite corporate power and authority to conduct its business as
currently conducted.

     2. The Borrowing Subsidiary has the requisite corporate power and authority
to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Assumption Letter, the
Five Year Credit Agreement and the Notes. Such execution, delivery and
performance:

        (a) have been duly authorized by all necessary and proper corporate
action of the Borrowing Subsidiary,

        (b) do not violate any provision of the certificate of incorporation or
by-laws of the Borrowing Subsidiary or require any approval of the Borrowing
Subsidiary's stockholders,

        (c) will not violate any law or regulation of ____________, the State of
Illinois (including, without limitation, any usury laws) or of the United States
of America applicable to the Borrowing Subsidiary, and

        (d) do not contravene any agreement set forth on the Certificate, or, to
our knowledge, any other material agreement or instrument binding on the
Borrowing Subsidiary.

     3. The Assumption Letter constitutes, and from and after the initial
Committed Borrowing to the Borrowing Subsidiary, the Notes will constitute, the
valid and binding obligations of the Borrowing Subsidiary, enforceable in
accordance with their respective terms.

     4. No approval, consent or authorization of, or filing or registration
with, any governmental department, agency or instrumentality is necessary for
the Borrowing Subsidiary's execution or delivery of the Assumption Letter or the
Notes, or for the Borrowing Subsidiary's performance of any of the terms
thereof.

     Our opinions above are subject to the following qualifications:

                               Exhibit H - Page 2

<PAGE>

        (a) Our opinions relating to validity, binding effect and enforceability
in Paragraph 3 above are subject to limitations imposed by any applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium and
similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally. In addition, our opinions
relating to enforceability in paragraph 3 above are subject to (i) the effect of
general principles of equity (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding
in equity or at law) and (ii) limitations imposed by public policy under certain
circumstances on the enforceability of provisions indemnifying a party against
liability for its own wrongful or negligent acts. In applying principles of
equity referred to in clause (i) above, a court, among other things, might not
allow a creditor to accelerate maturity of a debt upon the occurrence of a
default deemed immaterial. Such principles applied by a court might include a
requirement that a creditor act reasonably and in good faith.

        (b) Certain remedial and waiver provisions of the Five Year Credit
Agreement applicable to the Borrowing Subsidiary pursuant to the Assumption
Letter may be unenforceable in whole or in part, but the inclusion of such
provisions does not affect the validity of the Assumption Letter; however, the
unenforceability of such provisions may result in delays in the enforcement of
the Administrative Agent's and the Banks' rights and remedies under the
Assumption Letter (and we express no opinion as to the economic consequences, if
any, of such delays).

        (c) We express no opinion as to the effect of the compliance or
noncompliance of the Administrative Agent or any of the Banks with any state or
federal laws or regulations applicable to the Administrative Agent or any of the
Banks because of the Administrative Agent's or any of the Banks' legal or
regulatory status, the nature of the business of the Administrative Agent or any
of the Banks or the qualification of any such party to conduct business in any
jurisdiction.

     The foregoing opinions are limited to the laws of the United States, the
State of Illinois and the corporate law of [jurisdiction where the Borrowing
Subsidiary is incorporated] and we express no opinion with respect to the laws
of any other state or jurisdiction.

     Whenever in this opinion reference is made to our knowledge, such reference
is to the conscious awareness of [insert appropriate names] of information
regarding factual matters. With respect to such matters, such persons have not,
with your express permission and consent, undertaken any investigation or
inquiry either of other lawyers, files maintained by the firm, or officers or
employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (including without

                                       13

writing, in substantially the form of Exhibit D-1 hereto, specifying therein the
requested (i) date of such Committed Borrowing, (ii) Type of Committed Advances
comprising such Committed Borrowing, which, in the case of a Committed Borrowing
denominated in an Alternative Currency, shall be Eurocurrency Rate Advances,
(iii) currency for such Committed Borrowing, which shall be in Dollars or an
Alternative Currency, (iv) aggregate amount of such Committed Borrowing, (v) in
the case of a Committed Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Advances, the
initial Interest Period for each Committed Advance comprising such Committed
Borrowing, and (vi) whether such Committed Borrowing is to be made by the
Company or by a specified Borrowing Subsidiary. The Administrative Agent shall,
promptly after such time as the Company or such Borrower may no longer revoke
the Notice of Committed Borrowing without any liability to the Company or such
Subsidiary, notify each Bank and the Company or such Borrower of the applicable
interest rate under Section 2.07(a) or (b). Each Bank shall, before 12:00 P.M.
(Chicago time) on the date of such Committed Borrowing, make available for the
account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at the
Domestic Lending Office of the Bank then acting as Administrative Agent, in
federal or otherwise immediately available funds, such Bank's Pro Rata Share of
such Committed Borrowing. After the Administrative Agent receives such funds and
upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the
Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the applicable Borrower
at the Administrative Agent's aforesaid address.

          (b)  Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary notwithstanding:

               (i) If with respect to a request for a Committed Borrowing of an
          Alternative Currency other than Sterling, Euros or Yen, any Bank
          shall, prior to 10:00 A.M. (Chicago time) on the second Business Day
          before the requested date of such Committed Borrowing, notify the
          Administrative Agent that the requested Alternative Currency is not
          practically available to such Bank in the amount required to make its
          Committed Advance in connection therewith; or

               (ii) If any Bank shall, prior to making any requested Committed
          Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances in an Alternative
          Currency, notify the Administrative Agent that the introduction of or
          any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes
          it unlawful, or that any central bank or other governmental authority
          asserts that it is unlawful, for such Bank or its Eurocurrency Lending
          Office or any other Applicable Lending Office to perform its
          obligations hereunder to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances in such
          currency or to fund or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Advances in such
          currency hereunder; or

               (iii) If the Majority Banks shall, prior to making any requested
          Committed Borrowing of an Alternative Currency other than Sterling,
          Yen or the Euro, notify the Administrative Agent or the Administrative
          Agent shall reasonably determine that currency control or other
          exchange regulations are imposed in the country in which such currency
          is issued which result in the introduction of different types of such
          currency or that there is a change in national or international
          financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates
          or exchange controls which would make it impracticable for such
          Advance to be denominated in the Alternative Currency;

                                       14

<PAGE>

then, upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the
Company and the applicable Borrower (if other than the Company) and the Company
or such Borrower may, without incurring an obligation to indemnify for losses,
costs or expenses under Section 2.02(d), by notice to the Administrative Agent
(which shall promptly notify each Bank), either

               (x) withdraw the applicable Notice of Committed Borrowing, in
          which case the Committed Borrowing shall not occur;

               (y) request that such Committed Borrowing be made by the Banks in
          Dollars as a Committed Borrowing comprised of either Eurocurrency Rate
          Advances or Base Rate Advances, in which case the original Notice of
          Committed Borrowing shall be deemed to be a Notice of Committed
          Borrowing which requests a Committed Borrowing in an aggregate
          principal amount in Dollars equivalent, on the date the Company or
          such Borrower so notifies the Administrative Agent, to the amount of
          the originally requested currency for such Type of Committed Advances
          (determined in accordance with Section 2.16); provided that such
          request may not be made by the Company or such Borrower if the
          requested Type of Committed Advances is Eurocurrency Rate Advances and
          the request by the Company or such Borrower is not given to the
          Administrative Agent prior to 2:00 P.M. (London time) on the second
          Business Day before the requested date of such Committed Borrowing; or

               (z) only in the case of a Bank giving a notice described in
          Section 2.02(b)(ii) above, request that such Committed Borrowing be
          made by the Banks (other than the notifying Bank) and that no
          Committed Advance be made by the notifying Bank in connection with
          such Committed Borrowing.

In the case of any notice given under clause (y) above, the Company or such
Borrower shall specify in such notice the amount and type of Committed Advance
to be made by each Bank in connection therewith. Any notice under this
subsection (b) shall be given no later than 2:00 P.M. (London time) two Business
Days before the date of the requested Committed Borrowing, may be given by
telephone and, if by telephone, shall be confirmed promptly in writing. If
neither the Company nor the applicable Borrower shall provide a timely notice as
contemplated in clause (x), (y) or (z) above in response to a notice by any Bank
under clause (i) or (ii) above, the applicable Notice of Committed Borrowing
shall be deemed withdrawn.

          (c) Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary notwithstanding,
if the Majority Banks shall, no later than 5:00 P.M. (Chicago time) three
Business Days before the date of any requested Committed Borrowing, continuation
or conversion consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, or any continuation
thereof or conversion thereto, notify the Administrative Agent that the
Eurocurrency Rate for any Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Advances,
plus additional interest, if any, payable under Section 2.08, will not
adequately reflect the cost to such Majority Banks of making, funding,
converting to or continuing their respective Eurocurrency Rate Advances for such
Committed Borrowing for such Interest Period, then the Administrative Agent
shall promptly notify the Company, the applicable Borrower (if other than the
Company) and the Banks of such circumstances and upon receipt of such notice,
the Company or such Borrower may, without incurring an obligation to indemnify
for losses, costs

                                       15

<PAGE>

or expenses under Section 2.02(d), by notice to the Administrative Agent (which
shall promptly notify each Bank), either:

               (i) withdraw the applicable Notice of Committed Borrowing, in
          which case the Committed Borrowing shall not occur;

               (ii) withdraw the applicable Notice of Conversion or
          Continuation, in which case the conversion or continuation of such
          Committed Borrowing shall not occur; or

               (iii) request that such Committed Borrowing, continuation or
          conversion be made by the Banks in Dollars as a Committed Borrowing,
          continuation or conversion, in which case the original Notice of
          Committed Borrowing, or Notice of Conversion or Continuation shall be
          deemed to be a Notice of Committed Borrowing, or Notice of Conversion
          or Continuation which requests a Committed Borrowing, continuation or
          conversion in an aggregate principal amount in Dollars equivalent, on
          the date the Company or such Borrower so notifies the Administrative
          Agent, to the amount of the originally-requested currency for such
          Committed Advances; provided that such request may not be made by the
          Company or such Borrower if the request by the Company or such
          Borrower is not given to the Administrative Agent prior to 2:00 P.M.
          (London time) on the second Business Day before the requested date of
          such Committed Borrowing, continuation or conversion.

In the case of any notice given under clause (iii) above, the Company or such
Borrower shall specify in such notice the amount and Type of Committed Advances
to be made, continued or converted by the Banks in connection therewith. Any
notice under this subsection (c) shall be given no later than 2:00 P.M. (London
time) two Business Days before the date of the requested Committed Borrowing,
may be given by telephone, and, if by telephone, shall be confirmed promptly in
writing. From and after the date the Administrative Agent receives the notice
described in Section 2.02(c), the Banks' obligation to make Eurocurrency
Advances for any affected Interest Period shall be suspended until the Majority
Banks notify the Administrative Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such
notice no longer exist. If neither the Company nor the applicable Borrower shall
provide a timely notice as contemplated in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above with
respect to a Notice of Committed Borrowing, the applicable Notice of Committed
Borrowing shall be deemed withdrawn. If neither the Company nor the applicable
Borrower shall provide timely a notice as contemplated in clauses (i), (ii) or
(iii) above with respect to a Notice of Continuation or Conversion, the Company
or such applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have made the request described
in clause (iii).

          (d) Each Notice of Committed Borrowing and Notice of Conversion or
Continuation may be revoked by the Company or, if other than the Company, the
applicable Borrower, by notice to the Administrative Agent without any liability
on the part of the Company or such Borrower at any time prior to (i) 10:00 A.M.
(Chicago time) on the date of a proposed Committed Borrowing, continuation or
conversion comprised of Base Rate Advances, (ii) 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the
second Business Day prior to the date of a proposed Committed Borrowing,
continuation or conversion comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Advances to be
denominated in Dollars, and (iii) 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the third Business
Day prior

                                       16

<PAGE>

to the date of a proposed Committed Borrowing, continuation or conversion
comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Advances to be denominated in an Alternative
Currency. In the case of any Committed Borrowing, continuation or conversion
which the related Notice of Committed Borrowing, or Notice of Conversion or
Continuation, specifies is to be comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, unless
the Company or the applicable Borrower revokes such Notice of Committed
Borrowing or Notice of Conversion or Continuation in accordance with the
preceding sentence and except as otherwise provided in Sections 2.02(b) and (c),
the Company or such Borrower shall indemnify each Bank against any loss, cost or
expense reasonably incurred by such Bank as a result of any failure to fulfill
on or before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing or Notice of
Conversion or Continuation for such Committed Borrowing, conversion or
continuation, the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including,
without limitation, any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or
expense reasonably incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of
deposits or other funds acquired by such Bank to fund the Committed Advance to
be made by such Bank as part of such Committed Borrowing, conversion or
continuation, when such Committed Advance, as a result of such failure, is not
made, continued or converted on such date.

          (e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a
Bank prior to the date of any Committed Borrowing that such Bank will not make
available to the Administrative Agent such Bank's Pro Rata Share of such
Committed Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Bank has made
such Pro Rata Share available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such
Committed Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and
the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make a
corresponding amount available to the applicable Borrower on such date. If and
to the extent that such Bank shall not have so made such Pro Rata Share
available to the Administrative Agent, such Bank and such Borrower severally
agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such
corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date
such amount is made available to such Borrower until the date such amount is
repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Borrower, the
interest rate applicable at the time to Committed Advances comprising such
Committed Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Bank, the Federal Funds Rate.
If such Bank shall repay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent,
such amount so repaid shall constitute such Bank's Committed Advance as part of
such Committed Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.

          (f) A Bank's failure to make the Committed Advance to be made by it as
part of any Committed Borrowing shall not relieve any other Bank of its
obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Committed Advance on the date of such
Committed Borrowing. No Bank shall be responsible for the failure of any other
Bank to make the Committed Advance to be made by such other Bank on the date of
any Committed Borrowing.

     SECTION 2.03 The Uncommitted Advances. (a) Each Bank severally agrees that
any Borrower may make Uncommitted Borrowings in Dollars from time to time on any
Business Day during the period from the date hereof until 30 days before the
Termination Date in the manner set forth below; provided that, following the
making of each Uncommitted Borrowing, the aggregate amount with respect to all
Borrowers of the Advances then outstanding shall not exceed the aggregate amount
of the Commitments of the Banks.

                                       17

<PAGE>

          (i) A Borrower may request, and the Company may request for the
benefit of any Borrowing Subsidiary, an Uncommitted Borrowing to be made by such
Borrower under this Section 2.03 by delivering to the Administrative Agent, by
telecopier not later than the applicable Request Deadline a notice of an
Uncommitted Borrowing (a "Notice of Uncommitted Borrowing"), in substantially
the form of Exhibit D-2 hereto, specifying therein (A) the requested date of the
proposed Uncommitted Borrowing, (B) the aggregate amount of the proposed
Uncommitted Borrowing, (C) that each Bank submitting an offer shall quote an
Uncommitted Borrowing Margin, or that each Bank submitting an offer shall quote
a fixed interest rate per annum without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate, (D)
maturity date for repayment of each Uncommitted Advance to be made as part of
such Uncommitted Borrowing (which maturity date may not be earlier than one (1)
day, or later than 270 days after the date of the proposed Uncommitted Borrowing
or later than the Termination Date in the case of a Fixed Rate Uncommitted
Borrowing, and which shall be one, two, three or six months, subject to the
limitations set forth in the definition of "Interest Period" in the case of a
Eurocurrency Rate Uncommitted Borrowing) and whether such Uncommitted Advance
may be prepaid, and if so, whether with or without penalty, (E) interest payment
date or dates relating thereto, (F) Borrower and (G) other material terms to be
applicable to such Uncommitted Borrowing. The Administrative Agent shall
promptly notify each Bank of its receipt of each such Notice of Uncommitted
Borrowing by sending each Bank a copy thereof. "Request Deadline" means (x) in
the case of a Fixed Rate Uncommitted Borrowing, 4:00 P.M. (Chicago time) on the
Business Day prior to the date of such proposed Uncommitted Borrowing and (y) in
the case of a Eurocurrency Rate Uncommitted Borrowing, 4:00 P.M. (Chicago time)
four (4) Business Days prior to the date of such proposed Uncommitted Borrowing.

          (ii) Each Bank shall, if, in its sole discretion, it elects to do so,
irrevocably offer to make one or more Uncommitted Advances to such Borrower as
part of such proposed Uncommitted Borrowing at a rate or rates of interest
specified by such Bank, in its sole discretion, by notifying the Administrative
Agent not later than the applicable Quote Deadline of the minimum amount (if
any) and maximum amount of each Uncommitted Advance which such Bank would be
willing to make as part of such proposed Uncommitted Borrowing (which amounts
may, subject to the proviso to the first sentence of this Section 2.03(a),
exceed such Bank's Commitment, if any), the Uncommitted Borrowing Margin or
Margins to be applied in the determination of the rate or rates of interest
therefor (or, if the Notice of Uncommitted Borrowing shall have requested that
fixed rates per annum be quoted, the fixed rate or rates per annum therefor) and
such Bank's Applicable Lending Office with respect to such Uncommitted Advance.
If any Bank shall elect not to make such an offer, such Bank shall so notify the
Administrative Agent before the applicable Quote Deadline, and such Bank shall
not be obligated to, and shall not, make any Uncommitted Advance as part of such
Uncommitted Borrowing; provided that the failure by any Bank to give such notice
shall not cause such Bank to be obligated to make any Uncommitted Advance as
part of such proposed Uncommitted Borrowing. The Administrative Agent shall
promptly notify the Company and, if applicable, the applicable Borrowing
Subsidiary of each Bank's response pursuant to this paragraph (ii); provided,
that if Bank One shall elect to make an offer under this paragraph (ii), such
offer shall be delivered to the Company and, if

                                       18

<PAGE>

applicable, the Borrowing Subsidiary not later than one-half hour prior to the
applicable Quote Deadline. Each Borrower shall be entitled to assume that each
quote of an Uncommitted Borrowing Margin or a fixed rate per annum by a Bank
includes, and such Bank shall not be entitled to claim as additional interest or
costs under Section 2.08 or otherwise, any costs to such Bank in the nature of a
reserve requirement, assessment or other charge in connection with the
Uncommitted Advance to which such quote relates, except that such Bank shall be
entitled to claim increased costs and additional compensation under
Section 2.12(a) and (b) and Section 2.18, but solely with respect to the changes
described in such provisions that occur after the date such Uncommitted Advance
is made. "Quote Deadline" means, (x) in the case of a Fixed Rate Uncommitted
Borrowing, 9:00 A.M. (Chicago time) on the date of such proposed Uncommitted
Borrowing and (y) in the case of a Eurocurrency Rate Uncommitted Borrowing,
9:00 A.M. (Chicago time) three Business Days prior to the date of such proposed
Uncommitted Borrowing.

          (iii) Such Borrower, or the Company on behalf of such Borrower, shall,
in turn, before the applicable Acceptance Deadline, either

               (A) cancel, without incurring an obligation on the part of such
          Borrower or the Company to indemnify for losses, costs or expenses
          under Section 2.02(d), such Uncommitted Borrowing by giving the
          Administrative Agent notice to that effect, in which case such
          Uncommitted Borrowing shall not be made, or

               (B) accept one or more of the offers made by any Bank or Banks
          pursuant to paragraph (ii) above, in its sole discretion but in any
          event in ascending order of the fixed rates of interest or Uncommitted
          Borrowing Margins (as applicable) offered by all of the Banks
          responding to such Notice of Uncommitted Borrowing, by giving notice
          to the Administrative Agent of the relevant Banks and the respective
          amounts of each Uncommitted Advance (each of which amounts shall be
          equal to or greater than the minimum amount, and equal to or less than
          the maximum amount, offered to be made by the respective Bank for such
          Uncommitted Advance pursuant to Section 2.02(a)(ii) above) and reject
          any remaining offers made by Banks pursuant to such Section by giving
          the Administrative Agent notice to that effect. The Company (either
          for itself or on behalf of a Borrowing Subsidiary) may not accept
          offers which, in the aggregate, exceed the requested Uncommitted
          Borrowing specified in the applicable Notice of Uncommitted Borrowing.
          If two or more Banks bid at the same Uncommitted Borrowing Margin or
          fixed rate of interest, as the case may be, and the amount of accepted
          offers is less than the aggregate amount of such offers, the amount to
          be borrowed from such Banks as part of such Uncommitted Borrowing
          shall be allocated pro rata on the basis of the maximum amount offered
          by each such Bank at such fixed rates or Uncommitted Borrowing Margins
          in connection with such Uncommitted Borrowing.

                                       19

<PAGE>

The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Banks of each notice it
receives pursuant to this paragraph (iii). "Acceptance Deadline" means, (x) in
the case of an Uncommitted Borrowing to be denominated in Dollars, 10:00 A.M.
(Chicago time) on the date of such proposed Uncommitted Borrowing and (y) in the
case of an Uncommitted Borrowing to be denominated in an Alternative Currency,
4:00 P.M. (Chicago time) three Business Days prior to the date of such proposed
Uncommitted Borrowing.

               (iv) If such Borrower accepts, or the Company accepts on such
     Borrower's behalf, one or more of the offers made by any Bank or Banks
     pursuant to Section 2.03(a)(iii)(B) above, the Administrative Agent shall
     in turn promptly notify (A) each Bank that has made an offer pursuant to
     Section 2.03(a)(ii) of the date and aggregate amount of such Uncommitted
     Borrowing and whether or not any offer or offers so made by such Bank have
     been accepted by such Borrower, (B) each Bank that is to make an
     Uncommitted Advance as a part of such Uncommitted Borrowing, of the amount
     of each Uncommitted Advance to be made by such Bank as part of such
     Uncommitted Borrowing, and (C) each Bank that is to make an Uncommitted
     Advance as part of such Uncommitted Borrowing, upon receipt, that the
     Administrative Agent has received forms of documents appearing to fulfill
     the applicable conditions set forth in Article III. Each Bank that is to
     make an Uncommitted Advance as part of such Uncommitted Borrowing shall,
     before 1:00 P.M. (Chicago time) on the date of such Uncommitted Borrowing
     specified in the notice received from the Administrative Agent pursuant to
     clause (A) of the preceding sentence or any later time when such Bank shall
     have received notice from the Administrative Agent pursuant to subclause
     (C) of the preceding sentence, make available to the Administrative Agent
     at the Administrative Agent's Domestic Lending Office, in federal or
     otherwise immediately available funds, such Bank's portion of such
     Uncommitted Borrowing. After the Administrative Agent receives such funds
     and when the applicable conditions set forth in Article III have been
     fulfilled, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the
     applicable Borrower at the Administrative Agent's aforesaid address.
     Promptly after (x) each Uncommitted Borrowing, the Administrative Agent
     will notify each Bank of the amount and date of the Uncommitted Borrowing
     and the maturity date thereof and the Available Commitment of each Bank
     after giving effect to such Uncommitted Borrowing and (y) the prepayment of
     any Uncommitted Borrowing by or on behalf of such Borrower, the
     Administrative Agent will notify each Bank of the amount and date of each
     such prepayment and the Available Commitment of each Bank after giving
     effect thereto.

          (b) Each Uncommitted Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount of not
less than $25,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof,
or if the requested currency for such Advance is not Dollars, the equivalent of
such amount (determined in accordance with Section 2.16) or multiple in the
requested Alternative Currency.

          (c) Within the limits and on the conditions set forth in this
Section 2.03, each Borrower may from time to time borrow under this
Section 2.03, repay pursuant to subsection (d) below, and reborrow under this
Section 2.03; provided that an Uncommitted Borrowing shall not be made within
three Business Days of any other Uncommitted Borrowing.

                                       20

<PAGE>

          (d) Each Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent, for the
account of each Bank which has made an Uncommitted Advance to such Borrower, on
the maturity date of each such Uncommitted Advance (such maturity date being
that specified for repayment of such Uncommitted Advance in the related Notice
of Uncommitted Borrowing delivered pursuant to Section 2.03(a)(i) above) the
then unpaid principal amount of such Uncommitted Advance. A Borrower shall not
have the right to prepay any principal amount of any Uncommitted Advance without
the consent of the Bank making such Advance.

          (e) Each Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of
each Uncommitted Advance made to it, from the date of such Uncommitted Advance
to the date the principal amount of such Uncommitted Advance is repaid in full,
at the rate of interest for such Uncommitted Advance specified by the Bank
making such Uncommitted Advance in its notice with respect thereto delivered
pursuant to Section 2.03(a)(ii) above, payable on the interest payment date or
dates specified for such Uncommitted Advance in the related Notice of
Uncommitted Borrowing delivered pursuant to Section 2.03(a)(i) above.

          (f) The Borrower of any Uncommitted Advance shall, promptly upon
request by the Bank making such Uncommitted Advance (either in the quote
delivered by such Bank pursuant to Section 2.03(a)(ii) or by notice to the
Administrative Agent), execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an
Uncommitted Note payable to the order of such Bank in a principal amount equal
to the principal amount of such Uncommitted Advance and otherwise on such terms
as were agreed to for such Uncommitted Advance in accordance with Section 2.03.

     SECTION 2.04 Facility Fee and Utilization Fee. (a) The Company and each
Borrowing Subsidiary jointly and severally agree to pay to the Administrative
Agent, for the account of each Bank, a facility fee ("Facility Fee") on the
average daily Commitment of such Bank from the date hereof until the Termination
Date (or, if the Company has made the Term Loan Election, until the Maturity
Date), payable in arrears on the first Business Day of each January, April, July
and October during the term of such Bank's Commitment, commencing January 2,
2003, and on the Termination Date (or, if the Company has made the Term Loan
Election, on the Maturity Date), at the Applicable Facility Fee Rate; provided,
that if any Bank continues to have Advances outstanding hereunder after the
termination of its Commitment (including, without limitation, during any period
when Advances may be outstanding but new Advances may not be borrowed
hereunder), then such Facility Fee shall continue to accrue on the aggregate
principal amount of the Advances owed to such Bank until such Advances are
repaid in full.

          (b) To the extent, and for so long as, the average daily aggregate
outstanding principal amount of Advances in any calendar quarter exceeds
one-half of the average daily aggregate outstanding Commitments during such
calendar quarter, the Company and each Borrowing Subsidiary, jointly and
severally, agree to pay to each Bank a utilization fee (the "Utilization Fee")
equal to the Applicable Utilization Fee Rate times the aggregate principal
amount of such Bank's average daily outstanding Advances during such calendar
quarter. The Utilization Fee shall be payable on each date the Facility Fee is
payable.

          (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) any Facility Fee or Utilization
Fee accrued with respect to any Commitment of a Defaulting Bank during the
period prior to the time

                                       21

such Bank became a Defaulting Bank and unpaid at such time shall not be payable
by the Borrowers so long as such Bank shall be a Defaulting Bank, except to the
extent such Facility Fee or Utilization Fee was due and payable prior to such
time, and (ii) no Facility Fee or Utilization Fee shall accrue on the Commitment
of a Defaulting Bank so long as such Bank is a Defaulting Bank.

     SECTION 2.05 Reduction and Termination of the Commitments. (a) The Company
shall have the right, upon at least four (4) Business Days' notice to the
Administrative Agent to terminate in whole or reduce ratably in part the unused
portions of the respective Commitments of the Banks, provided that the aggregate
amount of the Commitments of the Banks shall not be reduced to an amount which
is less than the aggregate principal amount of the Uncommitted Advances then
outstanding and provided, further, that each partial reduction shall be in an
aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess
thereof.

          (b) Provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Company may at any time replace any Bank, in whole but not in
part, by (i) giving such Bank and the Administrative Agent not less than ten
(10) Business Days' prior notice thereof, which notice shall be irrevocable and
effective only when received by such Bank and the Administrative Agent and shall
specify the effective date of such replacement, and (ii) effecting an assignment
of all of the Bank's Commitment and Advances in accordance with Section 9.03.

          (c) On the Termination Date, if the Company has made the Term Loan
Election in accordance with Section 2.06(a) prior to such date, and from time to
time thereafter upon each prepayment of the Advances, the aggregate Commitments
of the Banks shall be automatically and permanently reduced on a pro rata basis
by an amount equal to the amount by which (i) the aggregate Commitments
immediately prior to such reduction exceeds (ii) the aggregate unpaid principal
amount of all Advances (determined in the case of any Advances denominated in an
Alternative Currency by reference to the Dollar Amount) outstanding at such
time.

     SECTION 2.06 Payment; Conversion and Continuation. (a) On the Termination
Date, the Borrowers shall, subject to the next succeeding sentence, repay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Banks, the entire unpaid principal
amount of the Advances made by each Bank. The Company may, upon not less than 15
days' notice to the Administrative Agent, elect (the "Term Loan Election") to
convert all of the Committed Advances outstanding on the Termination Date in
effect at such time into a term loan which the Borrowers shall repay in full,
together with all accrued interest, ratably to the Banks on the Maturity Date,
with any prepayment thereof subject to Section 2.11; provided that the Term Loan
Election may not be exercised if an event shall have occurred and be continuing
which constitutes an Event of Default or which would constitute an Event of
Default but for the requirement that notice be given or time elapse or both on
the date of notice of the Term Loan Election or on the date on which the Term
Loan Election is to be effected. All Advances converted to a term loan pursuant
to this Section 2.06(a) shall continue to constitute Advances except that the
Borrowers may not reborrow pursuant to Section 2.01 after all or any portion of
the Advances have been prepaid pursuant to Section 2.10.

                                       22

<PAGE>

          (b) Any Borrower may elect (x) to convert Base Rate Advances or any
portion thereof to Eurocurrency Rate Advances, (y) to convert Eurocurrency Rate
Advances or any portion thereof into Base Rate Advances, or (z) to continue any
Eurocurrency Rate Advance or any portion thereof for an additional Interest
Period; provided, however, that the aggregate amount of Base Rate Advances being
converted into Eurocurrency Rate Advances or of Eurocurrency Rate Advances being
continued shall, in the aggregate, equal $20,000,000 or an integral multiple of
$1,000,000 in excess thereof. The applicable Interest Period for the
continuation of any Eurocurrency Rate Advance shall commence on the day on which
the immediately-preceding Interest Period expires. Each conversion or
continuation shall be allocated among the Committed Advances of each Bank (other
than Banks which had not made the Advance so converted or continued) in
accordance with its Pro Rata Share of the amount so converted or continued. Each
such election shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit E (a "Notice of
Conversion or Continuation") and shall be made by giving the Administrative
Agent notice by 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the date of such conversion or
continuation, in the case of a conversion to a Base Rate Advance, giving the
Administrative Agent at least three Business Days' prior written notice thereof
in the event of a conversion to or continuation of a Eurocurrency Advance
specifying, in each case (i) whether a conversion or continuation is to take
place, (ii) what Advances are to be converted or continued, and if converted,
the Type of Advance to which it is to be converted, (iii) the amount of the
conversion or continuation, (iv) the Interest Period therefor and (v) in the
case of a conversion, the date of conversion (which date shall be a Business
Day). The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Bank of its receipt of
a Notice of Conversion or Continuation by sending such Bank a copy thereof. If,
within the time period required under the terms of this Section 2.06(b), the
Administrative Agent does not receive a Notice of Conversion or Continuation
from the applicable Borrower containing an election to continue or convert any
Advances for an additional Interest Period, then, upon the expiration of the
Interest Period therefor, such Advances will be automatically converted to Base
Rate Advances.

     SECTION 2.07 Interest on Committed Advances. Each Borrower shall pay
interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Committed Advance made by each
Bank to it from the date of such Committed Advance until such principal amount
shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum:

          (a) Base Rate Advances. During such period as such Committed Advance
is a Base Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times to the Base Rate in
effect from time to time, payable quarterly in arrears on the first Business Day
of each January, April, July and October, commencing January 2, 2003, and on the
Termination Date (or, if the Company has made the Term Loan Election, on the
Maturity Date). The Administrative Agent shall give notice to the Company and
the applicable Borrower (if other than the Company) and each Bank of any change
in the Base Rate promptly after such change occurs, but the Administrative
Agent's failure to give such notice shall not affect the obligation of the
Company or such Borrower to pay interest at such rate when it becomes due and
payable.

          (b) Eurocurrency Rate Advances. During such period as such Committed
Advance is a Eurocurrency Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times
during each Interest Period for such Committed Advance to the sum of the
Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin, payable
on the last day of such Interest Period and, if

                                       23

<PAGE>

such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on each day which
occurs during such Interest Period every three months from the first day of such
Interest Period and on the date such Eurocurrency Rate Advance shall be
converted or paid in full.

          (c) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
Section 2.07, any amount of principal and fees and, to the extent permitted by
law, interest, that is not paid when due (whether at stated maturity, by
acceleration or otherwise) shall bear interest, from the date on which such
amount is due until such amount is paid in full, payable in arrears on the date
such amount shall be paid in full and on demand, at a rate per annum equal at
all times to 2% per annum above (i) in the case of principal, the rate of
interest otherwise thereto from time to time in accordance with the terms
hereof, and (ii) in the case of interest and fees, the Base Rate in effect from
time to time.

     SECTION 2.08 Additional Interest on Eurocurrency Rate Advances. Each
Borrower shall pay to each Bank, so long as and to the extent such Bank shall be
required under regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System (or any similar authority outside the United States, in the case of
Committed Advances in Alternative Currencies) to maintain reserves with respect
to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency Liabilities (or
any other category of liabilities that includes deposits by reference to which
the interest rate on Eurocurrency Rate Advances in the applicable Alternative
Currency is determined) and such Bank's performance under this Agreement (and
other like agreements) shall have given rise to additional reserve requirements
for such Bank thereunder, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of
each Committed Advance constituting a Eurocurrency Rate Advance of such Bank
made to such Borrower, from the date of such Committed Advance until such
principal amount is paid in full, at an interest rate per annum equal at all
times to the remainder obtained by subtracting (i) the Eurocurrency Rate for the
applicable Interest Period for such Committed Advance from (ii) the rate
obtained by dividing such Eurocurrency Rate by a percentage equal to 100% minus
the Eurocurrency Rate Reserve Percentage of such Bank for such Interest Period,
payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Committed Advance.
Such Bank shall, not later than the last day of the applicable Interest Period,
provide notice to the Administrative Agent, the Company and, if other than the
Company, the applicable Borrower of any such additional interest arising in
connection with such Committed Advance. Such additional interest so notified on
a timely basis by any Bank shall be payable to the Administrative Agent for the
account of such Bank on the dates specified for payment of interest for such
Committed Advance in Section 2.07.

     SECTION 2.09 Interest Rate Determination.

          (a) The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Company
and the applicable Borrower (if other than the Company) and each of the Banks of
the applicable interest rate determined by the Administrative Agent for purposes
of Section 2.07(a) or (b).

          (b) On the date on which the aggregate unpaid principal amount of
Eurocurrency Rate Advances comprising any Committed Borrowing shall be reduced,
by payment, prepayment or otherwise, to less than $20,000,000, such Advances
shall automatically convert into Base Rate Advances and such conversion shall be
subject to Section 2.11.

                                       24

<PAGE>

     SECTION 2.10 Prepayments. A Borrower may prepay, on any Business Day
following notice by 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on such Business Day to the
Administrative Agent (in the case of Base Rate Advances) and on three Business
Days' prior notice to the Administrative Agent (in the case of Eurocurrency Rate
Advances), each Committed Borrowing made to such Borrower, in whole or in part.
Such notice shall include the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of
such prepayment, and if such notice is given, such Borrower shall prepay such
principal amount, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment
on the principal amount prepaid. Any amounts payable, if any, pursuant to
Section 2.11 hereof in connection with any prepayment shall be paid on the date
of such prepayment; provided, however, that each partial prepayment shall be in
an aggregate principal amount of not less than $10,000,000 or an integral
multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Subject to Sections 2.12 and 2.13,
each prepayment of a Committed Borrowing shall be made to each Bank in
accordance with such Bank's Pro Rata Share thereof (other than any Banks which
did not make such Committed Borrowing). The Company shall, on the first Business
Day of each January, April, July and October, if the aggregate outstanding
principal Dollar Amount of all Advances, calculated by the Administrative Agent
on the seventh Business Day prior to such payment date and reported to the
Company by the fifth Business Day prior to such payment date, exceeds (as the
result of fluctuations in applicable foreign exchange rates or otherwise) 105%
of the then aggregate amount of the Banks' Commitments (calculated as
aforesaid), prepay a Committed Borrowing or Borrowings (in whole or in part, and
in any case as selected by the Company) in an aggregate Dollar Amount
(calculated as aforesaid, and rounded upward, if necessary, to the nearest
$1,000,000) equal to the excess of:

          (i) the aggregate principal Dollar Amount (calculated as aforesaid) of
     Advances outstanding, over

          (ii) the then aggregate amount of the Banks' Commitments (calculated
     as aforesaid).

Each prepayment of any Committed Borrowing (in whole or in part) made pursuant
to this Section 2.10 shall be without premium or penalty, but shall be subject
to the provisions of Section 2.11. Any mandatory prepayment of a Committed
Borrowing shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Bank
based on such Bank's Pro Rata Share of such Committed Borrowing and shall
include accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount prepaid and all
amounts owing under Section 2.11.

     SECTION 2.11 Funding Indemnification. If any payment of principal of any
Advance (other than a Base Rate Advance) is made other than on the last day of
an Interest Period for such Advance, as a result of acceleration of the maturity
of the Advances pursuant to Section 6.01 or for any other reason, or if any
Eurocurrency Rate Advance is converted to a Base Rate Advance pursuant to
Section 2.13(b) on any day other than the last day of an Interest Period for
such Eurocurrency Rate Advance, the applicable Borrower shall, upon demand by
any Bank (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank any amounts required to
compensate such Bank for any additional losses, costs or expenses which it may
reasonably incur as a result of such payment or conversion, including without
limitation any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or

                                       25

<PAGE>

expense reasonably incurred as a result of the liquidation or re-employment of
deposits or other funds acquired by such Bank to fund or maintain such Advance.

     SECTION 2.12 Increased Costs and Reduced Return. (a) Subject to the
limitation in Section 2.03(a)(ii), if, due to either (i) the introduction of or
any change (other than any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve
requirements, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, included in the
Eurocurrency Rate Reserve Percentage), after the date hereof, in or in the
interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any
guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority
(whether or not having the force of law) issued after the date hereof, there
shall be any increase in the cost to any Bank of agreeing to make, making,
funding or maintaining Eurocurrency Rate Advances (including, without
limitation, any conversion of any Advance denominated in an Alternative Currency
other than the Euro into an Advance denominated in Euro), by an amount
reasonably deemed by such Bank to be material, then from time to time, within
ten days after demand by such Bank (with a copy of such demand to the
Administrative Agent), such Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for
the account of such Bank additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Bank
for such increased cost; provided that no Borrower shall be obligated to pay any
such amount to the extent such amount results from a change, guideline or
request which took effect more than 90 days prior to the date of such demand.

          (b) Subject to the limitation in Section 2.03(a)(ii), if any Bank
shall have determined that the adoption, after the date hereof, of any
applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change
therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any
governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the
interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Bank (or its
Applicable Lending Office) with any request or directive issued after the date
hereof regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of
any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the
effect of reducing the rate of return on such Bank's capital as a consequence of
its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Bank could have
achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance by an amount reasonably
deemed by such Bank to be material, then from time to time, within ten days
after demand by such Bank (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative
Agent), the Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of
such Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank, in
light of such circumstances, to the extent such Bank reasonably determines such
reduction to be allocable to the existence of such Bank's Commitment; provided
that no Borrower shall be obligated to pay any such amount to the extent such
amount results from an adoption, change, request or directive which took effect
or was issued more than 90 days prior to the date of such demand.

          (c) Each Bank will promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the
Company of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof,
which would entitle such Bank to compensation pursuant to this Section 2.12. A
certificate of any Bank claiming compensation under this Section and setting
forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall create a
rebuttable presumption as to the correctness of such additional amount or
amounts. Each Bank agrees not to request any payment under this Section 2.12
unless similar requests are then generally being made by such Bank of other

                                       26

<PAGE>

borrowers similarly situated, and to use a reasonable basis for calculating
amounts allocable to its Commitment hereunder.

     SECTION 2.13 Illegality. (a) If any Bank shall determine (which
determination shall be rebuttably presumed correct as to all parties) at any
time that the making or continuance of its Eurocurrency Rate Advances has become
unlawful because of the introduction of or any change in or in the
interpretation of any law or regulation or because of the assertion of
unlawfulness by any central bank or other governmental authority, then, in any
such event, such Bank shall give prompt notice (by telephone confirmed in
writing) to the Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the
Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each Borrower and the other
Banks).

          (b) Upon the giving of the notice to the Company referred to in
subsection (a) above, if the affected Advances are then outstanding, each
Borrower shall, upon at least one Business Day's written notice to the
Administrative Agent and the affected Bank, or if permitted by applicable law no
later than the date permitted thereby, in such Borrower's sole discretion,
either (i) prepay the principal amount of all outstanding Advances of such Bank
to which such notice relates, together with accrued interest thereon to the date
of payment, or (ii) convert each such Advance into a Base Rate Advance
denominated in Dollars and, in each case, be obligated to reimburse the Banks in
respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.11 hereof. If more than one Bank gives
notice pursuant to Section 2.13(a) at any time, then all outstanding Advances of
the affected Type or currency of such Banks must be treated in the same manner
by the Borrowers pursuant to this subsection 2.13(b) and the Banks' obligations
to make, convert or continue Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended until
the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers that the circumstances causing
such suspension no longer exist.

     SECTION 2.14 Payments and Computations. (a) The Company and each Borrowing
Subsidiary shall make each payment hereunder and under the Notes without
set-off, counterclaim or other deduction by causing a wire transfer of
immediately-available funds to be initiated to the Administrative Agent in an
amount equal to such payment not later than 12:00 noon (Chicago time) on the day
when due from the Company or such Borrowing Subsidiary. The Administrative Agent
will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the
payment of principal or interest or fees ratably (other than amounts payable
pursuant to Sections 2.03, 2.05(b), 2.08, 2.11, 2.12, 2.15, 2.18 or 2.19) to the
Banks for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like
funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Bank to such
Bank for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be
applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. All such payments shall
be made in Dollars, except that payments of principal of and interest on
Borrowings in an Alternative Currency shall be made in such Alternative Currency
or, where such Alternative Currency has converted to the Euro, in the Euro;
provided that if the applicable Borrower fails to make any payment of principal
or interest with respect to any Borrowing in an Alternative Currency (including
the Euro) on the due date thereof because such Alternative Currency has ceased
to be freely transferable and convertible into Dollars in the international
currency and exchange markets, such failure shall not constitute an Event of
Default or an event which would constitute an Event of Default but for the
requirement that notice be given or time elapse or both, if such Borrower pays
the equivalent in Dollars of such payment on the due date thereof. In addition
to any such Dollar payment, such Borrower agrees to pay to each affected Bank an

                                       27

<PAGE>

indemnity payment within five Business Days after such Borrower shall have
received a certificate from such Bank setting forth in reasonable detail the
amount of any loss, cost, damage or expense suffered by such Bank as a
consequence of such inability to make any such payment in such Alternative
Currency on the due date thereof. Each Bank agrees to use reasonable efforts to
avoid or minimize all such loss, cost, damage or expense.

          (b) All computations of interest based on the Base Rate, or the
Eurocurrency Rate applicable to Borrowings denominated in Sterling, shall be
made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as
the case may be, and all computations of interest based on the Eurocurrency Rate
(as to all other currencies) or the Federal Funds Rate, all computations of
interest pursuant to Section 2.08 and all computations of the Facility Fee and
the Utilization Fee shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a
year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the
first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such
interest or fees are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent
(or, in the case of Section 2.08, by a Bank) of an interest rate or fee owing
hereunder shall create a rebuttable presumption as to the correctness of such
determination.

          (c) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated
to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the
next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be
included in the computation of payment of interest or fee, as the case may be;
provided, however, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or
principal of Eurocurrency Rate Advances to be made in the next following
calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

          (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from
the applicable Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the
Banks hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment in full, the
Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment in full
to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in
reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Bank on such due
date an amount equal to the amount then due such Bank. If and to the extent such
Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative
Agent, each Bank shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand
such amount distributed to such Bank together with interest thereon, for each
day from the date such amount is distributed to such Bank until the date such
Bank repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate.

     SECTION 2.15 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Bank shall obtain any payment
(whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off,
or otherwise) on account of the Committed Advances made by it (other than
pursuant to Sections 2.08, 2.11, 2.12, 2.13(b), 2.18 or 2.19) in excess of its
ratable share of payments on account of the Committed Advances obtained by all
the Banks, such Bank shall forthwith purchase from the other Banks such
participations in the Committed Advances made by them as shall be necessary to
cause such purchasing Bank to share the excess payment ratably with each of
them, provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is
thereafter recovered from such purchasing Bank, such purchase from each Bank
shall be rescinded and such Bank shall repay to the purchasing Bank the purchase
price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such
Bank's ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such
Bank's

                                       28

<PAGE>

required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing
Bank) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Bank in
respect of the total amount so recovered. Each Borrower agrees that any Bank so
purchasing a participation from another Bank with respect to Advances made to
such Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.15 may, to the fullest extent permitted
by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with
respect to such participation as fully as if such Bank were the direct creditor
of such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

     SECTION 2.16 Currency Equivalents. (a)  For purposes of this Article II,
(i) the equivalent in Dollars of any Alternative Currency shall be determined by
using the arithmetical mean of the buy and sell spot rates at which Bank One's
principal office in London exchanges Dollars for such Alternative Currency in
the interbank market in London at 11:00 A.M. (London time) two Business Days
prior to the date on which such equivalent is to be determined, (ii) the
equivalent in any Alternative Currency of any other Alternative Currency shall
be determined by using the arithmetical mean of the buy and sell spot rates at
which Bank One's principal office in London exchanges such Alternative Currency
for the equivalent in such other Alternative Currency in London at 11:00 A.M.
(London time) two Business Days prior to the date on which such equivalent is to
be determined, and (iii) the equivalent in any Alternative Currency of Dollars
shall be determined by using the arithmetical mean of the buy and sell spot
rates at which Bank One's principal office in London exchanges such Alternative
Currency for Dollars in London at 11:00 A.M. (London time) two Business Days
prior to the date on which such equivalent is to be determined. The equivalent
in Dollars of each Eurocurrency Rate Advance made in an Alternative Currency
shall be recalculated hereunder on each day that it is necessary to determine
the unused portion of each Bank's Commitment, or any or all of the Advances on
such date.

          (b) If for the purpose of obtaining a judgment in any court with
respect to any obligation of a Borrower hereunder, it shall become necessary for
the Administrative Agent or any Bank entitled to receive payments hereunder to
convert any amount into a currency other than the currency denominated hereunder
for such obligation, then such conversion shall be made on the basis of rates
(the "Exchange Rates") determined in the manner described in subsection (a)
above (or, if the applicable currency to be converted is not at the time of
conversion available in the interbank market in London, then in such other
interbank market as the Administrative Agent shall determine to have adequate
availability of such currency) and the date with respect to which such an
equivalent is to be determined shall be the first Business Day preceding the
date on which final judgment is entered. If pursuant to any such judgment
conversion is to be made with respect to a date other than the date referred to
above, and there shall occur a change between the Exchange Rates in effect on
such date and the Exchange Rates in effect on the date of payment, (i) the
applicable Borrower agrees to pay such additional amounts (if any) as may be
necessary to ensure that the amount paid is the amount in such other currency
which, when converted at the Exchange Rates as in effect on the date of payment
or distribution, is the amount then due hereunder in the relevant currency and
(ii) such Borrower shall not be required to pay any amount in excess of the
amount determined to be payable in connection with such obligation, calculated
on the basis of the Exchange Rates in effect on the first Business Day preceding
the date on which final judgment is entered. Any amount due from a Borrower
under this subsection (b) shall be due as a separate debt and is not to be
affected by or merged into any judgment being obtained for any other sums due
hereunder.

                                       29

<PAGE>

     SECTION 2.17 Borrowing Subsidiaries. The Company may at any time or from
time to time add as a party to this Agreement any Subsidiary of the Company to
be a "Borrowing Subsidiary" hereunder by causing such Subsidiary to execute and
deliver a duly completed Assumption Letter to the Administrative Agent, with the
written consent of the Company at the foot thereof. Upon such execution,
delivery and consent such Subsidiary shall for all purposes be a party hereto as
a Borrowing Subsidiary as fully as if it had executed and delivered this
Agreement. So long as the principal of and interest on all Advances made to any
Borrowing Subsidiary under this Agreement shall have been paid in full and all
other obligations of such Borrowing Subsidiary shall have been fully performed,
such Borrowing Subsidiary may, by not less than five Business Days' prior notice
to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Banks thereof),
terminate its status as a "Borrowing Subsidiary."

     SECTION 2.18 Taxes. (a)  Any and all payments by a Borrower hereunder or
under the Notes shall be made in accordance with Section 2.14, free and clear of
and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts,
deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto,
excluding, in the case of each Bank and the Administrative Agent, taxes imposed
on its income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction under the
laws of which such Bank or the Administrative Agent is organized or any
political subdivision thereof and taxes imposed on its income, and franchise
taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction of such Bank's Applicable 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 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 Bank or the Administrative Agent, (i) 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 2.18) such Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be)
receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no deductions
been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower
shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other
authority in accordance with applicable law.

          (b) In addition, each Borrower agrees to pay any present or future
stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or
similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or under the Notes or
from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to,
this Agreement (hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes").

          (c) Each Borrower will indemnify each Bank and the Administrative
Agent for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without
limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts
payable under this Section 2.18) paid by such Bank or the Administrative Agent
and any 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; provided, that the Borrowers shall have no obligation under
this subsection (c) to indemnify any Bank or the Administrative Agent if a
Borrower shall have performed its obligations under subsection (a) and (b),
thereby providing such Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) the
wherewithal to make payment, or demonstrate that payment has been made, of any
such Taxes or Other Taxes, and such Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the
case may be) shall not have effected such payment or made such

                                       30

<PAGE>

demonstration of payment on a timely basis to the relevant taxing authorities.
This indemnification shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the account
of such Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) within 30 days
from the date such Bank or the Administrative Agent makes written demand
therefor (with a copy, in the case of a demand by a Bank, of such demand to the
Administrative Agent).

          (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless, prior to the date of the
initial Committed Borrowing (in the case of a Bank listed on Schedule I hereto),
and prior to the effective date of the assignment agreement by which it became a
Bank (in the case of a Bank that became a Bank pursuant to such assignment
agreement), and in respect of borrowings by a Borrowing Subsidiary organized
under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, prior to the date on
which such Borrowing Subsidiary became a Borrower pursuant to Section 2.17, and
in each case from time to time thereafter, if requested by any Borrower,

               (i) each Bank organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside
          the United States shall have provided the Company with the forms
          prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service of the United States
          certifying as to such Bank's status for purposes of determining
          exemption from United States withholding taxes with respect to all
          payments to be made to such Bank hereunder or other documents
          satisfactory to the Company which shall indicate that all payments to
          be made to such Bank hereunder are not subject to United States
          withholding tax or are subject to such taxes at a rate reduced to zero
          by an applicable tax treaty, neither the Company nor any other
          Borrower shall have any obligation under the last sentence of Section
          2.18(a) to make any payments to or for the benefit of such Bank in
          excess of the amounts otherwise payable under this Agreement, and

              (ii) each Bank organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside
          the jurisdiction where any Borrowing Subsidiary is incorporated shall
          have taken all steps prescribed by the applicable governmental
          authority in the jurisdiction where such Borrowing Subsidiary is
          located so that such Bank is exempt from applicable withholding taxes
          with respect to all payments to be made to such Bank hereunder or so
          that all payments to be made to such Bank hereunder are not subject to
          applicable withholding taxes or are subject to such taxes at a rate
          reduced to zero by an applicable tax treaty, neither the Company nor
          any other Borrower shall have any obligation under the last sentence
          of Section 2.18(a) to make any payments to or for the benefit of such
          Bank in excess of the amounts otherwise payable under this Agreement;
          provided, however, that the applicable Borrower shall make the
          payments required by the last sentence of Section 2.18(a) if the
          obligation to withhold arises from a change in applicable law after
          the date hereof (or, with respect to payments to a new Applicable
          Lending Office designated pursuant to Section 2.20, after the date
          such Bank designates such new Applicable Lending Office).

Unless the applicable Borrower has received forms or other documents, including
Form W-8ECI, Form W-8BEN or any other applicable tax forms from the United
States or any other applicable jurisdiction, such forms to be satisfactory to
the Company, indicating that payments hereunder are not subject to any
withholding tax or are subject to such tax at a rate reduced to zero by an
applicable tax treaty, the applicable Borrower shall withhold taxes from such
payments at the

                                       31

<PAGE>

applicable statutory rate in the case of payments to or for any Bank organized
under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States (or in the case of a
Borrowing Subsidiary incorporated outside the United States, any Bank organized
under the laws outside of the jurisdiction where such Borrowing Subsidiary is
incorporated). Should a Bank become subject to Taxes because of its failure or
inability to deliver a form required hereunder, the Company shall take such
steps not requiring the expenditure of money as the Bank shall reasonably
request to assist the Bank to recover such Taxes.

     SECTION 2.19 Defaulting Banks. (a) If at any time (i) any Bank shall be a
Defaulting Bank, (ii) such Defaulting Bank shall owe a Defaulted Advance to the
Borrower and (iii) the Borrower shall be required to make any payment hereunder
or under any Note to or for the account of such Defaulting Bank, then the
Borrower may, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing at such time and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,
set off and otherwise apply the amount owed by the Borrower to or for the
account of such Defaulting Bank against the obligation of such Defaulting Bank
to make such Defaulted Advance. If the Borrower shall so set off and otherwise
apply the amount owed by the Borrower to or for the account of such Defaulting
Bank against the obligation of such Defaulting Bank to make any such Defaulted
Advance on any date, the amount so set off and otherwise applied by the Borrower
shall constitute for all purposes of this Agreement and the Notes an Advance by
such Defaulting Bank made on the date of such setoff. Such Advance shall be a
Base Rate Advance and shall be considered, for all purposes of this Agreement,
to comprise part of the Borrowing in connection with which such Defaulted
Advance was originally required to have been made pursuant to Section 2.01 or
Section 2.03(a), as the case may be, even if the other Advances comprising such
Borrowing shall be Eurocurrency Rate Advances on the date such Advance is deemed
to be made pursuant to this Section 2.19(a). The Borrower shall notify the
Administrative Agent at any time the Borrower makes a setoff under this Section
2.19(a) and shall specify in such notice (A) the name of the Defaulting Bank and
the Defaulted Advance required to be made by such Defaulting Bank and (B) the
amount set off and otherwise applied in respect of such Defaulted Advance
pursuant to this Section 2.19(a). Any part of such payment otherwise required to
be made by the Borrower to or for the account of such Defaulting Bank that is
paid by the Borrower, after giving effect to the amount set off and otherwise
applied by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.19(a), shall be applied by
the Administrative Agent as specified in Section 2.19(b) or 2.19(c).

          (a) If at any time (i) any Bank shall be a Defaulting Bank, (ii) such
Defaulting Bank shall owe a Defaulted Amount to the Administrative Agent or any
of the other Banks and (iii) the Borrower shall make any payment hereunder or
under any Note to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting
Bank, then the Administrative Agent may, on its behalf or on behalf of such
other Banks and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, apply at such
time the amount so paid by the Borrower to or for the account of such Defaulting
Bank to the payment of each such Defaulted Amount to the extent required to pay
such Defaulted Amount. If the Administrative Agent shall so apply any such
amount to the payment of any such Defaulted Amount on any date, the amount so
applied by the Administrative Agent shall constitute for all purposes of this
Agreement and the Notes payment to such extent of such Defaulted Amount on such
date. Any such amount so applied by the Administrative Agent shall be retained
by the Administrative Agent or distributed by the Administrative Agent to such
other Banks, ratably in accordance with their respective portions of such
Defaulted Amounts payable

                                       32

<PAGE>

at such time to the Administrative Agent and such other Banks and, if the amount
of such payment made by the Borrower shall at any time be insufficient to pay
all Defaulted Amounts owing at such time to the Administrative Agent and the
other Banks, in the following order of priority:

               (A) first, to the Administrative Agent for any Defaulted Amounts
          owing to the Administrative Agent (solely in its capacity as
          Administrative Agent) at such time; and

               (B)  second, to the other Banks for any Defaulted Amounts owing
          to the other Banks (solely in their capacity as Banks) at such time,
          ratably in accordance with such respective Defaulted Amounts owing to
          each other Bank (solely in its capacity as a Bank) at such time.

Any part of such payment made by the Borrower for the account of such Defaulting
Bank remaining, after giving effect to the amount applied by the Administrative
Agent pursuant to this Section 2.19(b), shall be applied by the Administrative
Agent as specified in Section 2.19(c).

     (c)  If at any time, (i) any Bank shall be a Defaulting Bank, (ii) such
Defaulting Bank shall not owe a Defaulted Advance or a Defaulted Amount and
(iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Bank shall be required
to pay or to distribute any amount hereunder or under any Note to or for the
account of such Defaulting Bank, then the Borrower or such other Bank shall pay
such amount to the Administrative Agent to be held by the Administrative Agent,
to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in escrow or the
Administrative Agent shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,
hold in escrow such amount otherwise held by it. Any funds held by the
Administrative Agent in escrow under this Section 2.19(c) shall be deposited by
the Administrative Agent in an account with Bank One, in the name and under the
control of the Administrative Agent, but subject to the provisions of this
Section 2.19(c). The terms applicable to such account, including the rate of
interest payable with respect to the credit balance of such account from time to
time, shall be Bank One's standard terms applicable to escrow accounts
maintained with it. Any interest credited to such account from time to time
shall be held by the Administrative Agent in escrow under, and applied by the
Administrative Agent from time to time in accordance with the provisions of,
this Section 2.19(c). The Administrative Agent shall, to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, apply all funds so held in escrow from time to time
to the extent necessary to make any Advances required to be made by such
Defaulting Bank and to pay any amount payable by such Defaulting Bank hereunder
to the Administrative Agent or any other Bank, as and when such Advances or such
amounts are required to be made or paid and, if the amount so held in escrow
shall any time be insufficient to make and pay all such Advances and all such
amounts required to be made or paid at such time, in the following order of
priority:

               (A) first, to the Administrative Agent for any amounts due and
          payable by such Defaulting Bank to the Administrative Agent hereunder
          (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) at such time;

               (B) second, to the other Banks for any amounts due and payable by
          such Defaulting Bank to the other Banks hereunder (solely in

                                       33

<PAGE>

          their capacity as Banks) at such time, ratably in accordance with such
          respective amounts due and payable to each other Bank (solely in its
          capacity as Bank) at such time; and

               (C) third, to the Borrower for any Advances required to be made
          by such Defaulting Bank pursuant to the Commitment of such Defaulting
          Bank at such time.

     If such Defaulting Bank shall, at any time, cease to be a Defaulting Bank,
any funds held by the Administrative Agent in escrow at such time with respect
to such Defaulting Bank shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent to such
Defaulting Bank and applied by such Defaulting Bank to the amounts owing to such
Defaulting Bank at such time under this Agreement in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement.

          (d) The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Bank under this
Section 2.19 are in addition to other rights and remedies that the Borrower may
have against such Defaulting Bank with respect to any Defaulted Advance and that
the Administrative Agent or any other Bank may have against such Defaulting Bank
with respect to any Defaulted Amount.

     SECTION 2.20 Mitigation. Any Bank claiming any additional amounts payable
pursuant to Sections 2.12 or 2.18 or subject to Section 2.13 shall use its
reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory
restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office if the
making of such a change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any
such additional amounts which may thereafter accrue under Sections 2.12 or 2.18
or would avoid the unavailability of Eurocurrency Rate Advances under Section
2.13 and would not, in any such case, in the judgment of such Bank, be otherwise
disadvantageous to such Bank.

     SECTION 2.21 European Economic and Monetary Union. (a) Advances in the
Euro. If any Advance is capable of being made in either the Euro or in a
National Currency Unit, then such Advance shall be made in the Euro.

          (b) Rounding and Other Consequential Changes. Without prejudice to any
method of conversion or rounding prescribed by any legislative measures of the
Council of the European Union, each reference in this Agreement to a fixed
amount or to fixed amounts in a National Currency Unit to be paid to or by the
Administrative Agent shall, notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement and to the extent the Euro has replaced such National Currency Unit,
be replaced by a reference to such comparable and convenient fixed amount or
fixed amounts of the Euro as the Administrative Agent may from time to time
reasonably specify.

     SECTION 2.22 Extension of Termination Date. (a) The Company may, by written
notice to the Administrative Agent (each such notice being an "Extension
Request") given no more than 59 days nor less than 30 days prior to each
anniversary date of this Agreement, extend the then applicable Termination Date
to a date 364 days after the then-applicable Termination Date; provided,
however, that such extension shall be effective only with respect to a Bank
which, by a written notice (a "Continuation Notice") to the Company and the

                                       34

<PAGE>

Administrative Agent given no more than 30 days and no less than 15 days before
such anniversary date, consents to such extension (each Bank giving a
Continuation Notice thereafter being referred to as a "Continuing Bank" and each
Bank other than a Continuing Bank being a "Non-Extending Bank"); provided
further, however, that the Borrowers shall not have made the Term Loan Election
for Advances outstanding on such Termination Date prior to such time; provided
further, however, that such extension shall be effective only if the aggregate
Commitments of the Continuing Banks are not less than 51% of the aggregate
Commitments in effect at the date the Company gives the applicable Extension
Request. Within five Business Days after the Administrative Agent receives an
Extension Request it shall notify each Bank thereof. If any Bank fails to notify
the Administrative Agent in writing of its consent to, or refusal of, any such
Extension Request at least 15 days prior to such anniversary date, such Bank
shall be deemed to be a Non-Extending Bank with respect to such Extension
Request. The Commitment of each Non-Extending Bank shall terminate on the
Termination Date in effect for such Non-Extending Bank immediately prior to such
Extension Request, and on such Termination Date the Company shall pay the
Administrative Agent, for the account of such Non-Extending Banks, an amount
equal to such Non-Extending Banks' Advances plus accrued but unpaid interest and
fees thereon and all other amounts owed such Bank hereunder; provided that the
Company has not replaced such Non-Extending Banks pursuant to Section 2.22(b)
below.

          (b) A Non-Extending Bank shall be obligated, at the request of the
Company and subject to the Non-Extending Bank receiving payment in full of (i)
the principal amount of all Advances owing to such Non-Extending Bank, and (ii)
all accrued interest and fees owing to such Non-Extending Bank and all other
amounts owing to such Non-Extending Bank hereunder, to assign without recourse,
representation, warranty (other than good title to its Advances) or expense to
such Non-Extending Bank, at any time prior to the Termination Date applicable to
such Non-Extending Bank, all of its rights (other than rights that would survive
the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.12) and obligations
hereunder to one or more Purchasers (the "Replacement Banks") nominated by the
Company and willing to take the place of such Non-Extending Bank; provided that
each such Replacement Bank satisfies all the requirements of this Agreement and
the Administrative Agent shall have consented to such assignment, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld. Each such Replacement Bank shall become a
Continuing Bank hereunder in replacement for the Non-Extending Bank.

          (c) If the Termination Date shall have been extended in respect of
Continuing Banks in accordance with Section 2.22(a), any notice of borrowing
specifying a date for the borrowing of an Advance occurring after the
Termination Date applicable to a Non-Extending Bank or requesting an Interest
Period extending beyond such date shall (a) have no effect in respect of such
Non-Extending Bank and (b) not specify a requested aggregate principal amount
exceeding the Aggregate Commitment excluding the Commitments of all such
Non-Extending Banks.

          (d) If the Termination Date shall have been extended in respect of
Continuing Banks in accordance with this Section 2.22, all references herein to
the "Termination Date" shall, with respect to all parties hereto other than
Non-Extending Banks, refer to the Termination Date as so extended.

                                       35

     SECTION 2.23  Increase of Aggregate Commitments. (a) The Company may from
time to time, on the terms set forth below, request that the aggregate amount of
the Commitments be increased to an amount which does not exceed $200,000,000;
provided, however, that an increase in the Commitments hereunder may only be
made at a time when (i) no Event of Default or event which, with notice or the
passage of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom and (ii) the Public Debt
Rating from S&P is at least BBB- and the Public Debt Rating from Moody's is at
least Baa3.

          (b)  If the Company requests an increase in the aggregate
Commitments:

               (i)  each of the Banks shall be given the opportunity to
     participate in the increased aggregate Commitments (x) initially, ratably
     in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, and (y) next, to the extent that the
     requested increase in the aggregate Commitments is not fulfilled pursuant
     to the preceding clause (x) and subject to Section 2.23(d) below, in such
     additional amounts as any Bank and the Company agree, and

               (ii)  if, after each Bank has been afforded an opportunity
     to increase its Commitment to satisfy the Company's requested increase, the
     aggregate increase in the Commitments offered by the Banks is less than the
     Company's requested increase, then the Company shall consult with the
     Administrative Agent as to the number, identity and requested Commitments
     of additional financial institutions which the Company may, with the
     written consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be
     unreasonably withheld) invite to participate in the aggregate Commitments.

          (c) No Bank shall have any obligation to increase its Commitment
pursuant to a request by the Company hereunder. No Bank shall be deemed to have
approved an increase in its Commitment unless such approval is in writing.
Failure on the part of any Bank to respond to a request by the Company within 30
days of such Bank's receipt of notice of such request hereunder shall be deemed
a rejection of such request.

          (d) In no event shall any Bank's Commitment, after giving effect to
an increase in its Commitment hereunder, exceed 25% of the aggregate Commitments
under this Agreement.

          (e) If the Company and one or more of the Banks (or other financial
institutions) shall agree upon such an increase in the aggregate Commitments
hereunder (i) the Company, the Administrative Agent and each Bank or other
financial institution increasing its Commitment or extending a new Commitment
shall enter into a consent in the form of Exhibit F hereto and (ii) the Company
shall furnish new Notes to each financial institution that is extending a new
Commitment and to each Bank which is increasing its Commitment. Notwithstanding
anything else to the contrary contained in Section 2.06(b), if an increase in
the aggregate Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.23 occurs during an
Interest Period for an outstanding Committed Borrowing, (a) such Committed
Borrowing may not be continued or converted pursuant to Section 2.06(b) and (b)
such Committed Borrowing shall be due and payable at the end of the current
Interest Period applicable thereto, without prejudice to the

                                       36

<PAGE>

Company's right, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to
reborrow all or any portion of the amount of such Committed Borrowing.

comply could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and
(ii) no circumstances exist that could reasonably be expected to (A) form the
basis of an Environmental Action against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
or any of their properties that could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect or (B) cause any such property to be subject to any restrictions
on ownership, occupancy, use or transferability under any Environmental Law that
could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

          (l) None of the properties owned or leased by the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries is the subject of any investigation or cleanup, whether
voluntary or required pursuant to any Environmental Law or ordered by any
governmental authority, that could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

incurred or is reasonably expected to incur any Withdrawal Liability with
respect to any Multiemployer Plan or (ii) has been notified by the sponsor of a
Multiemployer Plan that such Multiemployer Plan is in reorganization or has been

Plan is reasonably expected to be in reorganization or to be terminated, within
the meaning of Title IV of ERISA.

          (o) As of the last annual actuarial valuation date, the aggregate

                                    GUARANTEE
                                    ---------

     SECTION 7.01 Unconditional Guarantee. For valuable consideration, receipt
whereof is hereby acknowledged, and to induce the Banks to make Advances to each
Borrowing Subsidiary, the Company unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to
the Banks and the Administrative Agent that the principal of and interest on
each Advance and all other amounts payable by each Borrowing Subsidiary
hereunder shall be promptly paid in full when due (whether at stated maturity,
by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof,
and, in the case of any extension of time of payment, in whole or in part, that
all such amounts shall be promptly paid when due (whether at stated maturity, by
acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension. In
addition, the Company unconditionally agrees that upon (a) default in the
payment when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of
any of such principal, interest or other amounts, the Company shall forthwith
pay the same, or (b) the occurrence and continuance of any event described in
Section 6.01(e), (f) or (i) with respect to any Borrowing Subsidiary (as if each
reference therein to "Material Subsidiary" were a reference to such Borrowing
Subsidiary), the Company shall forthwith pay all principal, interest and other
amounts payable hereunder by such Borrowing Subsidiary. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Company's liability shall extend to all amounts
that constitute part of the obligations of any Borrowing Subsidiary guaranteed
by the Company under this Article VII and would be owed by any such Borrowing
Subsidiary to any Bank or the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or the
Notes but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the
existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving such
Borrowing Subsidiary.

     SECTION 7.02 Validity. The obligations of the Company under this Article
VII are independent of the obligations of the Borrowing Subsidiaries guaranteed
hereunder, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted
against the Company to enforce its obligations under this Article VII,
irrespective of whether any action is brought against any Borrowing Subsidiary
or whether any Borrowing Subsidiary is joined in any such action or

                                       48

<PAGE>

actions. The obligations of the Company under this Article VII shall be
unconditional irrespective of (i) the genuineness, validity, regularity or
enforceability of the obligations of the Borrowing Subsidiaries under this
Agreement, any Note or any Assumption Letter, (ii) any law, regulation or order
of any jurisdiction affecting any term of any obligation of any Borrowing
Subsidiary under this Agreement or the rights of any Bank or the Administrative
Agent with respect thereto, (iii) any change in the time, manner or place of
payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the obligations of any
Borrowing Subsidiary guaranteed by the Company under this Article VII, or any
other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from this Agreement or
the Notes, (iv) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate
structure or existence of any Borrowing Subsidiary or any of its Subsidiaries,
or (v) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any other circumstance
which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or
guarantor.

     SECTION 7.03 Waivers. The Company expressly waives promptness, diligence,
presentment, protest and any other notice with respect to the obligations of the
Company under this Article VII and any requirement that any right or power be
exhausted or any action be taken against any Borrowing Subsidiary and all
notices and demands whatsoever.

     SECTION 7.04 Subrogation. The Company shall be subrogated to the rights of
the Banks or the Administrative Agent against any Borrowing Subsidiary hereunder
only after the Banks and the Administrative Agent shall have been paid in full
all such amounts, with interest thereon, for which such Borrowing Subsidiary
shall have become indebted hereunder.

     SECTION 7.05 Acceleration. The Company agrees that, as between the Company
on the one hand, and the Banks and the Administrative Agent, on the other hand,
the obligations of each Borrowing Subsidiary guaranteed under this Article VII
may be declared to be forthwith due and payable, or may be deemed automatically
to have been accelerated, as provided in Section 6.01 hereof for purposes of
this Article VII, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition
(whether in a bankruptcy proceeding affecting such Borrowing Subsidiary or
otherwise) preventing such declaration as against such Borrowing Subsidiary and
that, in the event of such declaration or automatic acceleration, such
obligations (whether or not due and payable by such Borrowing Subsidiary) shall
forthwith become due and payable by the Company for purposes of this Article
VII.

     SECTION 7.06 Reinstatement. The Company's obligations under this Article
VII shall be reinstated if at any time any payment received by any Bank or the
Administrative Agent from any Borrowing Subsidiary hereunder is required to be
repaid or returned by such Bank or the Administrative Agent, all as though such
payment had not been made.

     SECTION 7.07 Continuing Guaranty; Assignments. This guarantee of the
Company shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the later of (i) the
cash payment in full of the obligations of any Borrowing Subsidiary guaranteed
by the Company under this Article VII and (ii) the Termination Date (or, if the
Company has made the Term Loan Election, the Maturity Date), (b) be binding upon
the Company, its successors and assigns and (c) inure to the benefit of, and be
enforceable by, the Banks and the Administrative Agent and their successors,
transferees and assigns (provided that the applicable transfers and assignments
are made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement).

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                    ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT; SYNDICATION AGENT;
                    ----------------------------------------
                         DOCUMENTATION AGENT; CO-AGENTS
                         ------------------------------

     SECTION 8.01 Authorization and Action. Each Bank appoints and authorizes
Bank One to act as the Administrative Agent hereunder, and each Bank irrevocably
authorizes the Administrative Agent (for so long as the Administrative Agent
remains in such capacity under this Agreement) to act as the contractual
representative of such Bank with only the rights and duties expressly set forth
herein. The Administrative Agent agrees to act as such contractual
representative upon the express conditions contained in this Article VIII.
Notwithstanding the use of the defined term "Administrative Agent," it is
expressly understood and agreed that the Administrative Agent shall not have any
fiduciary responsibilities to any Bank by reason of this Agreement and that the
Administrative Agent is merely acting as the representative of the Banks with
only those duties as are expressly set forth in this Agreement. In its capacity
as the Banks' contractual representative, the Administrative Agent (i) does not
assume any fiduciary duties to any of the Banks, (ii) is a "representative" of
the Banks within the meaning of Section 9-105 of the Uniform Commercial Code and
(iii) is acting as an independent contractor, the rights and duties of which are
limited to those expressly set forth in this Agreement. Each Bank agrees to
assert no claim against the Administrative Agent on any agency theory or any
other theory of liability for breach of fiduciary duty, all of which claims each
Bank waives. The Administrative Agent shall have and may exercise such powers
under this Agreement as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent
by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental
hereto. The Administrative Agent shall have no implied duties to the Banks, or
any obligation to the Banks to take any action hereunder, except any action
specifically provided by this Agreement to be taken by the Administrative Agent.
As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement (including,
without limitation, enforcement or collection of the Notes), the Administrative
Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but
shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected
in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Majority
Banks, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Banks and all holders of
the Notes; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be
required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent to personal
liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law. The
Administrative Agent agrees to give to each Bank prompt notice of each notice
given to it by any Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The
Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties as Administrative Agent
hereunder and under any other instrument, document or agreement executed in
connection herewith by or through employees, agents, and attorney-in-fact and
shall not be answerable to the Banks, except as to money or securities received
by it or its authorized agents, for the default or misconduct of any such agents
or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. Without limiting the
foregoing, the Administrative Agent may appoint any Affiliate as its agent for
all matters relating to Advances made in Alternative Currencies. Each such agent
shall be entitled to all of the rights and benefits granted to the
Administrative Agent hereunder, and each Bank shall treat any notice given by
any such agent as if it had been given directly by the Administrative Agent.

     SECTION 8.02 Administrative Agent's Reliance, Etc. Neither the
Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees
shall be liable for any action taken

                                       50

<PAGE>

or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement,
except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: (i) may
treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until the Administrative Agent
receives and accepts an assignment agreement entered into by the Bank that is
the payee of such Note, as assignor, and a Purchaser, as assignee, as provided
in Section 9.03; (ii) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for any
Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it 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; (iii)
makes no warranty or representation to any Bank and shall not be responsible to
any Bank for any statements, warranties or representations (whether written or
oral) made in or in connection with this Agreement; (iv) shall not have any duty
to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the
terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement on the part of any Borrower or
to inspect the property (including the books and records) of any Borrower; (v)
shall not be responsible to any Bank for the due execution, legality, validity,
enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other
instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (vi) shall not have any duty
to ascertain, inquire into or verify the financial condition of the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries; (vii) shall have no duty to disclose to the Banks
information that is not required to be furnished by the Company to the
Administrative Agent at such time, but is voluntarily furnished by the Company
to the Administrative Agent (either in its capacity as Administrative Agent or
in its individual capacity); and (viii) shall incur no liability under or in
respect of this Agreement by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or
other instrument or writing (which may be by telegram) believed by it to be
genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties. The Administrative
Agent shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning the contractual
arrangement between the Administrative Agent and the Banks and all matters
pertaining to the Administrative Agent's duties hereunder.

     SECTION 8.03 The Administrative Agent and Affiliates. With respect to any
financial institution which shall become the Administrative Agent hereunder, and
with respect to such financial institution's Commitment and the Advances made by
it, such financial institution shall have the same rights and powers under this
Agreement as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not the
Administrative Agent; and the term "Bank" or "Banks" shall, unless otherwise
expressly indicated, include such financial institution in its individual
capacity, if applicable. Each such financial institution and its affiliates may
accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, and
generally engage in any kind of business with, any Borrower, any of their
respective Subsidiaries and any Person who may do business with or own
securities of any Borrower or any such Subsidiary, all as if such financial
institution were not the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account
therefor to the Banks.

     SECTION 8.04 Bank Credit Decision; Notice of Default. Each Bank
acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent or any other Bank and based on the financial statements
referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has
deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this
Agreement. Each Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without
reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Bank and based on such
documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to
make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this
Agreement. The Administrative Agent

                                       51

<PAGE>

shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Event
of Default, or an event which would constitute an Event of Default but for the
requirement that notice be given or time elapse or both, unless the Agent has
received written notice from a Bank or the Company referring to this Agreement
describing such Event of Default, or such event which would constitute an Event
of Default but for the requirement that notice be given or time elapse or both,
and stating that such notice is a "notice of default". In the event that the
Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give
prompt notice thereof to the Banks.

     SECTION 8.05 Indemnification. The Banks agree to indemnify the
Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers), ratably
according to the respective principal amounts of the Notes held by each of them
(or, if no Notes are outstanding at the time or if any Notes are held by Persons
that are not Banks, ratably according to the respective amounts of their
Commitments) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements
of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or
asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out
of this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent
under this Agreement; provided that no Bank shall be liable for any portion of
such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent any of the foregoing is
found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to
have resulted from the Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful
misconduct. Without limiting the foregoing, each Bank agrees to reimburse the
Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any
out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by the Administrative
Agent in connection with the administration, modification, amendment or
enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of,
or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement,
to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses
by the Borrowers. The obligation of the Banks under this Section 8.05 shall
survive payment of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

     SECTION 8.06 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may
resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Banks and the Company
and may be removed at any time with or without cause by the Majority Banks. Upon
any such resignation or removal, the Majority Banks shall have the right to
appoint another Bank as successor Administrative Agent or, if acceptable to the
Company, any other commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States
of America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of
at least $500,000,000. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so
appointed by the Majority Banks, and shall have accepted such appointment,
within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of
resignation or the Majority Banks remove the retiring Administrative Agent, then
the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Banks, appoint a
successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized under
the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having a
combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000 and otherwise acceptable
to the Company. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent
hereunder 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 under
this Agreement. After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation or removal

                                       52

<PAGE>

hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article VIII shall
inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while
it was Administrative Agent.

     SECTION 8.07 Syndication Agent; Documentation Agent; Managing Agent. The
Banks identified in this Agreement as the Syndication Agent, the Documentation
Agent or the Managing Agent shall not have any right, power, obligation,
liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those
applicable to all Banks as such. Without limiting the foregoing, such Banks
shall not have or be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship with any Bank. Each
Bank hereby makes the same acknowledgments with respect to such Banks as it
makes with respect to the Administrative Agent in Section 8.04.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS; PARTICIPATIONS
                -------------------------------------------------

     SECTION 9.01 Successors and Assigns. The terms and provisions of this
Agreement and the Notes shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
Company and the Banks and their respective successors and assigns permitted
hereby, except that (a) neither the Company nor any Borrowing Subsidiary shall
have the right to assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement and the
Notes without the prior written consent of each Bank, (b) any assignment by any
Bank must be made in compliance with Section 9.03, and (c) any transfer by
participation must be made in compliance with Section 9.02. Any attempted
assignment or transfer by any party not made in compliance with this Section
9.01 shall be null and void, unless such attempted assignment or transfer is
treated as a participation in accordance with Section 9.02. The parties to this
Agreement acknowledge that clause (b) of this Section 9.01 relates only to
absolute assignments and this Section 9.01 does not prohibit assignments
creating security interests, including, without limitation, (x) any pledge or
assignment by any Bank of all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement
and any Note to a Federal Reserve Bank or (y) in the case of a Bank which is a
Fund, any pledge or assignment of all or any portion of its rights under this
Agreement and any Note to its trustee in support of its obligations to its
trustee; provided, that no such pledge or assignment creating a security
interest shall release the transferor Bank from its obligations hereunder unless
and until the parties thereto have complied with the provisions of Section 9.03
and no Person acquiring any interest in any pledge or assignment creating a
security interest shall be entitled to exercise any voting rights hereunder. The
Administrative Agent may treat the Person which made any Advance or which holds
any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until such
Person complies with Section 9.03; provided, that the Administrative Agent may
in its discretion (but shall not be required to) follow instructions from the
Person which made any Advance or which holds any Note to direct payments
relating to such Advance or Note to another Person. Any assignee of the rights
to any Advance or any Note agrees by acceptance of such assignment to be bound
by all the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the Notes. Any request,
authority or consent of any Person, who at the time of making such request or
giving such authority or consent is the owner of the rights to any Advance
(whether or not a Note has been issued in evidence thereof), shall be conclusive
and binding on any subsequent holder or assignee of the rights to such Advance.

                                       53

<PAGE>

     SECTION 9.02 Participations.

          9.02.1 Permitted Participants; Effect. Any Bank may at any time sell
to one or more banks or other entities ("Participants") participating interests
in any Loan owing to such Bank, any Note held by such Bank, any Commitment of
such Bank or any other interest of such Bank under this Agreement and the Notes.
In the event of any such sale by a Bank of participating interests to a
Participant, such Bank's obligations under this Agreement and the Notes shall
remain unchanged, such Bank shall remain solely responsible to the other parties
hereto for the performance of such obligations, such Bank shall remain the owner
of its Advances and the holder of any Note issued to it in evidence thereof for
all purposes under this Agreement and the Notes, all amounts payable by the
Borrowers under this Agreement shall be determined as if such Bank had not sold
such participating interests, and the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent
shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with
such Bank's rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Notes.

          9.02.2 Voting Rights. Each Bank shall retain the sole right to
approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, modification or
waiver of any provision of this Agreement and the Notes other than any
amendment, modification or waiver with respect to any Advance or Commitment in
which such Participant has an interest which would require consent of all of the
Banks pursuant to the terms of Section 10.01.

          9.02.3 Benefit of Certain Provisions. The Company agrees that each
Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff provided in Section 9.05
in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement
and the Notes to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest
were owing directly to it as a Bank under this Agreement and the Notes;
provided, that each Bank shall retain the right of setoff provided in Section
9.05 with respect to the amount of participating interests sold to each
Participant to the extent not applied by such Participant. The Banks agree to
share with each Participant, and each Participant, by exercising the right of
setoff provided in Section 9.05, agrees to share with each Bank, any amount
received pursuant to the exercise of its right of setoff, such amounts to be
shared in accordance with Section 2.15 as if each Participant were a Bank. The
Company further agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits
of Sections 2.02(d), 2.11, 2.12 and 2.18 to the same extent as if it were a Bank
and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 9.03; provided,
that (a) a Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment
under Sections 2.02(d), 2.11, 2.12 or 2.18 than the Bank who sold the
participating interest to such Participant would have received had it retained
such interest for its own account, unless the sale of such interest to such
Participant is made with the prior written consent of the Company, and (b) any
Participant not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or
any State thereof agrees to comply with the provisions of Section 2.18 to the
same extent as if it were a Bank.

     SECTION 9.03 Assignments.

          9.03.1 Permitted Assignments. Any Bank may at any time assign to one
or more banks or other entities ("Purchasers") all or any part of its rights and
obligations under this Agreement and the Notes. Such assignment shall be
substantially in the form of Exhibit A or in such other form as may be agreed to
by the parties thereto. Each such assignment with respect to

                                       54

<PAGE>

a Purchaser which is not a Bank or an Affiliate of a Bank shall either be in an
amount equal to the entire applicable Commitment and Advances of the assigning
Bank or (unless each of the Company (unless an Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing) and the Administrative Agent otherwise consents) be in an
aggregate amount not less than the lesser of (a) $10,000,000 or (b) the
remaining amount of the assigning Bank's Commitment. The amount of the
assignment shall be based on the Commitment or outstanding Advances (if the
Commitment has been terminated) subject to the assignment, determined as of the
date of such assignment or as of the "Trade Date," if the "Trade Date" is
specified in the assignment. Any assignment required pursuant to Section 2.05(b)
shall also be made pursuant to this Section 9.03.

          9.03.2 Consents. The consent of the Company shall be required prior to
an assignment becoming effective unless the Purchaser is a Bank or an Affiliate
of a Bank; provided, that the consent of the Company shall not be required if an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or if the assignment is in
connection with the physical settlement of credit derivative transactions and
the Administrative Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to give
prompt notice to the Company of any such assignment. The consent of the
Administrative Agent shall be required prior to an assignment becoming effective
unless the Purchaser is a Bank or an Affiliate of a Bank. Any consent required
under this Section 9.03.2 shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

          9.03.3 Effect; Effective Date. Upon (a) delivery to the Administrative
Agent of an assignment, together with any consents required by Sections 9.03.1
and 9.03.2, and (b) payment of a $3,500 fee to the Administrative Agent for
processing such assignment (unless such fee is waived by the Administrative
Agent), such assignment shall become effective on the effective date specified
in such assignment. The assignment shall contain a representation by the
Purchaser to the effect that none of the consideration used to make the purchase
of the Commitment and Advances under the applicable assignment agreement
constitutes "plan assets" as defined under ERISA and that the rights and
interests of the Purchaser in and under this Agreement and the Notes will not be
"plan assets" under ERISA. On and after the effective date of such assignment,
such Purchaser shall for all purposes be a Bank party to this Agreement and
shall have all the rights and obligations of a Bank under this Agreement and the
Notes, to the same extent as if it were an original party thereto, and the
transferor Bank shall be released with respect to the Commitment and Advances
assigned to such Purchaser without any further consent or action by the Company,
the Banks or the Administrative Agent. In the case of an assignment covering all
of the assigning Bank's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Bank
shall cease to be a Bank hereunder but shall continue to be entitled to the
benefits of, and subject to, those provisions of this Agreement which survive
payment of the Obligations and termination of the applicable agreement. Any
assignment or transfer by a Bank of rights or obligations under this Agreement
that does not comply with this Section 9.03.3 shall be treated for purposes of
this Agreement as a sale by such Bank of a participation in such rights and
obligations in accordance with Section 9.03.2. Upon the consummation of any
assignment to a Purchaser pursuant to this Section 9.03.3, the transferor Bank,
the Administrative Agent and the Company shall, if the transferor Bank or the
Purchaser desires that its Advances be evidenced by Notes, make appropriate
arrangements so that new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes are issued
to such transferor Bank and new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes, are
issued to such Purchaser, in each case in principal amounts reflecting their
respective Commitments, as adjusted pursuant to such assignment.

          9.03.4 Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this
purpose as an agent of the Company, shall maintain at one of its offices in
Chicago, Illinois a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a
register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Banks, and the
Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Advances owing to, each Bank
pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the "Register"). The entries in
the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest
error, and the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Banks may treat each
Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a
Bank hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the
contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Company and any
Bank, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

     SECTION 9.04 Dissemination of Information. The Company authorizes each Bank
to disclose to any Participant or Purchaser or any other Person acquiring an
interest in this Agreement and the Notes by operation of law (each a
"Transferee") and any prospective Transferee any and all information in such
Bank's possession concerning the creditworthiness of the Company and its
Subsidiaries; provided, that each Transferee and prospective Transferee agrees
to be bound by Section 10.09 of this Agreement.

     SECTION 9.05 Tax Treatment. If any interest in this Agreement or any Note
is transferred to any Transferee which is not incorporated under the laws of the
United States or any State thereof, the transferor Bank shall cause such
Transferee, concurrently with the effectiveness of such transfer, to comply with
the provisions of Section 2.18.

                                  -------------

     SECTION 10.01 Amendments, Etc. No amendment or waiver of any provision of
this Agreement or the Notes, nor any consent to any departure by any Borrower
therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing
and signed by the Majority Banks, and then such waiver or consent shall be
effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which
given; provided, however, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in
writing and signed by all the Banks, directly do any of the following: (i) waive
any of the conditions specified in Section 3.01 or 5.04, (ii) increase or extend
the Commitments of the Banks (except pursuant to Section 2.06(a), 2.22 or 2.23)
or subject the Banks to any additional obligations, (iii) reduce the principal

     SECTION 10.03 No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Bank or
the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right
hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further

provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

     SECTION 10.04 Costs and Expenses. (a) The Company agrees to pay on demand
all reasonable, documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Arranger and

hereof, or in determining the rights and obligations of the parties hereto under
this Agreement and the Notes, or the enforcement (whether through negotiations,
legal proceedings or otherwise) of this Agreement and the other documents to be
delivered hereunder; provided that if, in the event of any enforcement
undertaken by the Banks hereunder, it shall be determined that sufficient
conflicts exist such that a single law firm engaged by the Administrative Agent
or the Majority Banks is precluded by law or by standards of conduct from
representing the Banks as a group, and such conflicts would exist with respect
to any other law firm representing the Banks as a group, the Company agrees to
pay on demand all reasonable, documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of
each Bank, if any (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses
of counsel), in connection with such enforcement undertaking.

          (b) The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent such fees as
 shall have been agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the Company in a
separate agreement regarding the provision by the Administrative Agent of
services as Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

     SECTION 10.05 Right of Set-off. Upon (i) the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default and (ii) the declaration that the Advances
are due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, each Bank is
authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or
demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any
time owing by such Bank to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower
against any and all of the obligations of such Borrower now or hereafter
existing under this Agreement and the Notes held by such Bank, irrespective of
whether or not such Bank shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such
Notes and although such obligations may be unmatured. Each Bank shall promptly
notify the Company after any such set-off and application made by such Bank,
provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of
such set-off and application. The rights of each Bank under this Section are in
addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other
rights of set-off) which such Bank may have.

     SECTION 10.06 Binding Effect. This Agreement (other than Sections 2.01 and
2.03, which shall only become effective upon satisfaction of the conditions set
forth in Section 3.01) shall become effective when it shall have been executed
by the Company and the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent
shall have been notified by each bank listed on the signature pages hereof that
it has executed this Agreement and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of the Company, the Administrative Agent and each Bank and their
respective successors and assigns, except that neither the Company nor any
Borrowing Subsidiary shall have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any
interest herein without the prior written consent of the Banks.

                                       58

<PAGE>

which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken
together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

     SECTION 10.09 Confidentiality. Each Bank agrees that it will use reasonable
efforts to keep confidential any information from time to time supplied to it by
the Company which the Company designates in writing at the time of its delivery
to the Bank is to be treated confidentially; provided, however, that nothing
herein shall affect the disclosure of any such information to: (i) the extent
required by statute, rule, regulation or judicial process; (ii) counsel for any
Bank or to their respective accountants; (iii) bank examiners and auditors; (iv)
any Affiliate of such Bank; (v) any other Bank, or, subject to Section 9.04, any
Transferee or prospective Transferee; or (vi) any other Person in connection
with any litigation to which any one or more of the Banks is a party; provided
further, however, that each Bank agrees that it will use reasonable efforts to
promptly notify the Company of any request for information under this clause
(vi) or with respect to any request for information not enumerated in this
Section 10.09, if not otherwise prohibited from doing so.

     SECTION 10.10 Non-Reliance by the Banks. Each Bank by its signature to this
Agreement represents and warrants that (i) it has not relied in the extension of
the credit contemplated by this Agreement, nor will it rely in the maintenance
thereof, upon any assets of the Company or its Subsidiaries consisting of Margin
Stock as collateral and (ii) after reviewing the financial statements of the
Company and its Consolidated Subsidiaries referred to in Section 4.01(e), such
Bank has concluded therefrom that the consolidated cash flow of the Company and
its Consolidated Subsidiaries is sufficient to support the credit extended to
the Company pursuant to this Agreement.

     SECTION 10.11 No Indirect Security. Notwithstanding any Section or
provision of this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall

to pledge, mortgage, sell, assign, or otherwise encumber or dispose of any
Margin Stock.

     SECTION 10.12 Indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless the Administrative Agent, each Bank, and their respective officers,
directors, employees and agents (any one of the foregoing being an "Indemnified
Party" and any two or more of the foregoing being "Indemnified Parties") from
and against, and pay the Indemnified Parties the amount of, any and all claims,
damages, liabilities, and reasonable, documented out-of-pocket costs and
expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of
counsel) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against an Indemnified
Party relating in whole or in part to this Agreement, the Notes, any documents
delivered in connection herewith and the transactions contemplated hereby, and
in connection with or arising out of or by reason of, or in connection with the
preparation of a defense of, any investigation, litigation or proceeding brought
by a Person other than the Indemnified Parties or the Company and its
Subsidiaries, arising out of, related to or in connection with (i) this
Agreement, the Notes, any of the transactions contemplated herein or the use or
proposed use of the proceeds of any Advances, (ii) any acquisition or proposed
acquisition by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of all or any portion of
the stock or all or substantially all of the assets of any Person, or (iii) the
actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials on any property of the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries or any Environmental Action relating to any of them,
in each case whether or not

                                       59

<PAGE>

such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Company, any
other Borrower, their respective shareholders or creditors, an Indemnified Party
or any other Person, and whether or not an Indemnified Party is otherwise a
party thereto, provided, however, that this indemnification shall not apply to
any claim, damage, liability, cost or expense that is found in a final,
nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted
from an Indemnified Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct. The
covenants of the Company contained in this Section 10.12 and in Sections 10.04,
2.11, 2.12 and 2.19 shall survive the repayment of all amounts due and payable
under this Agreement and the termination of this Agreement.

     SECTION 10.13 Partial Invalidity. Wherever possible, each provision hereof
shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under
applicable law, but in case any one or more of the provisions contained herein
shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
respect, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent, but only to the
extent, of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without invalidating
the remainder of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or provisions
or any other provisions hereof, unless such a construction would be
unreasonable.

     SECTION 10.14 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY
WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO HAVE A JURY PARTICIPATE IN RESOLVING ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER
SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED
TO OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED AMONG THEM IN CONNECTION WITH
THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THE ACTIONS OF THE
COMPANY, ANY BORROWING SUBSIDIARY, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY BANK IN THE
NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT THEREOF. EACH OF THE
PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION
SHALL BE DECIDED BY BENCH TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT ANY PARTY HERETO MAY
FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS
WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR
RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

     SECTION 10.15 Jurisdiction, Etc. (a) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably
and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive
jurisdiction of any Illinois state court or federal court of the United States
of America sitting in Chicago, Illinois, and any appellate court from any
thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Agreement or the Notes, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and
each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all
claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined
in any such Illinois state court 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 may otherwise
have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the Notes
in the courts of any jurisdiction.

                                       60

<PAGE>

          (b) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives,
 to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that
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 or the Notes in any
Illinois state or federal court. Each of the parties hereto 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.

     SECTION 10.16 Nonliability of Banks. The relationship between the Borrowers
on the one hand and the Banks and the Administrative Agent on the other hand
shall be solely that of borrower and lender. Neither the Administrative Agent,
the Arranger nor any Bank shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to the
Borrower. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Arranger nor any Bank undertakes
any responsibility to the Borrowers to review or inform the Borrowers of any
matter in connection with any phase of the Borrowers' business or operations.
Neither the Administrative Agent, the Arranger nor any Bank shall have any
liability with respect to, and the Borrowers waive, release and agree not to sue
for, any special, indirect or consequential damages suffered by the Borrowers in
connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to this Agreement or the
transactions contemplated thereby.

     For the purposes of this Schedule, the following terms have the following
meanings, subject to the final paragraph of this Schedule:

     "Level I Status" exists at any date if, on such date, the Company's Moody's
Rating is A1 or better or the Company's S&P Rating is A+ or better.

     "Level II Status" exists at any date if, on such date, (a) the Company has
not qualified for Level I Status and (b) the Company's Moody's Rating is A2 or
better or the Company's S&P Rating is A or better.

     "Level III Status" exists at any date if, on such date, (a) the Company has
not qualified for Level I Status or Level II Status and (b) the Company's
Moody's Rating is A3 or better or the Company's S&P Rating is A- or better.

     "Level IV Status" exists at any date if, on such date, (a) the Company has
not qualified for Level I Status, Level II Status or Level III Status and (b)
the Company's Moody's Rating is Baa1 or better or the Company's S&P Rating is
BBB+ or better.

     "Level V Status" exists at any date if, on such date, the Company has not
qualified for Level I Status, Level II Status, Level III Status or Level IV
Status.

<PAGE>

     "Moody's Rating" means, at any time, the Public Debt Rating issued by
Moody's and then in effect with respect to the Company's senior unsecured
long-term debt securities without third-party credit enhancement.

     "S&P Rating" means, at any time, the Public Debt Rating issued by S&P and
then in effect with respect to the Company's senior unsecured long-term debt
securities without third-party credit enhancement.

     "Status" means either Level I Status, Level II Status, Level III Status,
Level IV Status or Level V Status.

     The Applicable Margin, Applicable Facility Fee Rate and Applicable
Utilization Fee Rate shall be determined in accordance with the foregoing table
based on the Company's Status as determined from its then-current Moody's and
S&P Ratings. The credit rating in effect on any date for the purposes of this
Schedule is that in effect at the close of business on such date. If at any time
the Company has no Moody's Rating or no S&P Rating, Level V Status shall exist.

                                  SCHEDULE III

                                   LITIGATION

Jones, et al. v. R.R. Donnelley & Sons Co.

On November 25, 1996, a class action was brought against the Company in federal
district court in Chicago, Illinois, on behalf of current and former
African-American employees, alleging that the Company racially discriminated
against them in violation of the Civil Rights Act of 1871, as amended, and the
U.S. Constitution. The complaint seeks declaratory and injunctive relief, and
asks for actual, compensatory, consequential and punitive damages in an amount
not less than $500 million.

Adams, et al. v. R.R. Donnelley & Sons Co.

On June 30, 1998, a class action was filed against the Company in federal
district court in Chicago, Illinois on behalf of current and former
African-American employees, alleging that the Company racially discriminated
against them in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. While
making many of the same general discrimination claims contained in the Jones
case above, the Adams plaintiffs are also claiming retaliation by the Company
for the filing of discrimination charges or otherwise complaining of race
discrimination. The complaint seeks the same relief and damages as sought in the
Jones case.

Gerlib, et al. v. R.R. Donnelley & Sons Co.

On December 18, 1995, a class action was filed against the Company in federal
district court in Chicago, Illinois alleging that older workers were
discriminated against in selection for termination upon the closing of the
Chicago catalog operations. The suit also alleged that the Company violated the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) in determining benefits payable
to retiring or terminated employees. The age claim has been decided in favor of
the Company but an appeal is expected. The plaintiffs have made no claim for a
specific amount of damages in connection with the age claim. The ERISA claims in
Gerlib and the Jefferson case described below are related and the court has
ruled in the Company's favor on certain claims and in the plaintiffs favor on
other claims. The ruling is subject to appeal and the Company's approximate
liability for these claims is $14 million.

Jefferson, et al. v. R.R. Donnelley & Sons Co.

On December 28, 2000, a purported class action was brought against the Company
and certain of its benefit plans in federal district court in Chicago, Illinois
on behalf of certain former employees of the Chicago catalog operations. The
suit alleges that enhanced pension benefits were not paid to plaintiffs and that
plaintiffs are being required to contribute to the costs of retiree medical
coverage, both in violation of plan documents and ERISA. The complaint seeks
recalculation of pension benefits due plaintiffs since their retirement dates,
reimbursement of any amounts paid by plaintiffs for medical coverage, interest
on the foregoing amounts, as well as a declaration as to the benefits due
plaintiffs in the future. The retiree medical claim has been

decided in favor of the Company but is subject to appeal. Had the Company lost
in the original suit involving the retiree medical claim, the award would have
been approximately $20 million.

To the Banks parties to the
  364-Day Credit Agreement referred
  to below

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     Reference is made to the 364-Day Credit Agreement dated as of October 10,
2002 among R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company, the Banks named therein and Bank One,
NA, as Administrative Agent for such Banks (as amended and in effect from time
to time, the "364-Day Credit Agreement"). Terms defined in the 364-Day Credit
Agreement and capitalized herein are used herein as defined therein.

     The undersigned, ___________ (the "Subsidiary"), a _________________
corporation, proposes to become a "Borrowing Subsidiary" under the 364-Day
Credit Agreement, and accordingly agrees that from the date hereof it shall
become a "Borrowing Subsidiary" under the 364-Day Credit Agreement and agrees
that from the date hereof and until the payment in full of the principal of and
interest on all Advances made to it under the 364-Day Credit Agreement and
performance of all of its other obligations thereunder, and termination
hereunder of its status as a "Borrowing Subsidiary" as provided below, it shall
perform, comply with and be bound by each of the provisions of the 364-Day
Credit Agreement which are stated to apply to the "Company", a "Borrowing
Subsidiary" or a "Borrower". Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
that Subsidiary represents and warrants that: (i) each of the representations
and warranties set forth in Sections 4(a), (b), (c) and (d) of the 364-Day
Credit Agreement is hereby made by such Subsidiary on and as of the date hereof
as if made on and as of the date hereof and as if such Subsidiary is the
"Company", this Assumption Letter is the "Agreement" referenced therein and each
Note issued by such Borrowing Subsidiary is the "Note" referenced therein, and
(ii) it has heretofore received a true and correct copy of the 364-Day Credit
Agreement (including any modifications thereof or supplements or waivers
thereto) as in effect on the date hereof.

     So long as the principal of and interest on all Advances made to the
Subsidiary under the 364-Day Credit Agreement shall have been paid in full and
all other obligations of the Subsidiary shall have been fully performed, the
Subsidiary may by not less than five Business Days' prior notice to the Banks
terminate its status as a "Borrowing Subsidiary."

     The Subsidiary irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its
property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any Illinois state court or
federal court of the United States of America sitting in Chicago, Illinois, and
any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of
or relating to this Assumption Letter, the 364-Day Credit Agreement or

                               Exhibit B - Page 1

<PAGE>

the Notes, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and the Subsidiary
irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such
action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such Illinois state
court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court. The Subsidiary
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 Assumption Letter shall
affect any right that any Bank or the Administrative Agent may otherwise have to
bring any action or proceeding relating to this Assumption Letter, the 364-Day
Credit Agreement or the Notes in the courts of any jurisdiction.

     The Subsidiary irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest
extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or
hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising
out of or relating to this Assumption Letter, the 364-Day Credit Agreement or
the Notes in any Illinois state or federal court. The Subsidiary 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.

     This Assumption Letter shall be governed by, and construed in accordance
with, the laws of the State of Illinois.

                               Exhibit B - Page 2

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Subsidiary has duly executed and delivered this
Assumption Letter as of the date and year first above written.

                        Opinion of Counsel to the Company

                                October 10, 2002

To each of the Banks parties to
the "364-Day Credit Agreement" (as defined below),
and to Bank One, NA, as Administrative Agent

     Re: R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     We have acted as counsel to R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company, a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the 364-Day Credit Agreement of
even date herewith (the "364-Day Credit Agreement") among the Company, the
financial institutions parties thereto (the "Banks") and Bank One, NA, as
Administrative Agent, and the transactions contemplated thereby.

     This opinion is furnished to you at the request of the Company pursuant to
Section 3.01(a)(v) of the 364-Day Credit Agreement. Capitalized terms used
herein and not otherwise defined are used as defined in the 364-Day Credit
Agreement.

     In connection with this opinion, we have examined originals or copies,
certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of the 364-Day Credit
Agreement and the promissory notes delivered on the date hereof to the Banks
signatory to the 364-Day Credit Agreement (the "Notes").

     In rendering the opinions set forth herein, we have also examined originals
or copies, certified to our satisfaction, of such (i) certificates of public
officials, (ii) certificates of officers and representatives of the Company, and
(iii) other documents and records, and we have made such inquiries of officers
and representatives of the Company, as we have deemed relevant or necessary as
the basis for such opinions. We have relied as to factual matters upon, and
assumed the accuracy of, such certificates, the representations and warranties
of the Company made in the 364-Day Credit Agreement, and other statements,
documents and records supplied to us by the Company, and we have assumed the
genuineness of all signatures (other than signatures of officers of the Company)
and the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the
conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified
or photostatic copies.

     In rendering the opinions set forth herein, we have assumed that:

     (i) all the parties to the 364-Day Credit Agreement, other than the
Company, are duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the
laws of their respective jurisdictions

                               Exhibit G - Page 1

<PAGE>

of organization and have the requisite corporate power to enter into the 364-Day
Credit Agreement; and

     (ii) the execution and delivery of the 364-Day Credit Agreement have been
duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and proceedings on the part of
all parties thereto other than the Company; the 364-Day Credit Agreement has
been duly executed and delivered by all parties thereto and constitutes the
valid and binding obligation of all parties thereto other than the Company,
enforceable against such parties in accordance with its terms.

     Based upon the foregoing and subject to the qualifications stated herein,
we are of the opinion that, as of the date hereof:

     1. The Company has been duly organized and is validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company has the requisite
corporate power and authority to conduct its business as currently conducted.

     2. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to execute,
deliver and perform its obligations under the 364-Day Credit Agreement and the
Notes. Such execution, delivery and performance:

          (a) have been duly authorized by all necessary and proper corporate
action of the Company,

          (b) do not violate any provision of the certificate of incorporation
or by-laws of the Company or require any approval of the Company's stockholders,

          (c) do not violate the General Corporation Law of the State of
Delaware, any law or regulation of the State of Illinois (including, without
limitation, any usury laws) or of the United States of America applicable to the
Company,

          (d) do not contravene that certain Indenture dated as of November 1,
1990, between the Company and Citibank, N.A., as Trustee, or, to our knowledge,
any other material agreement or instrument binding on the Company.

     3. The 364-Day Credit Agreement constitutes, and from and after the initial
Committed Borrowing the Committed Notes will constitute, the valid and binding
obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their respective
terms.

     4. No approval, consent or authorization of, or filing or registration
with, any governmental department, agency or instrumentality is necessary for
the Company's execution or delivery of the 364-Day Credit Agreement or the
Notes, or for the Company's performance of any of the terms thereof.

     Our opinions above are subject to the following qualifications:

          (a) Our opinions relating to validity, binding effect and
enforceability in Paragraph 3 above are subject to limitations imposed by any
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance,
moratorium and similar laws affecting creditors' rights

                               Exhibit G - Page 2

<PAGE>

generally. In addition, our opinions relating to enforceability in paragraph 3
above are subject to (i) the effect of general principles of equity (regardless
of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (ii) limitations
imposed by public policy under certain circumstances on the enforceability of
provisions indemnifying a party against liability for its own wrongful or
negligent acts. In applying principles of equity referred to in clause (i)
above, a court, among other things, might not allow a creditor to accelerate
maturity of a debt upon the occurrence of a default deemed immaterial. Such
principles applied by a court might include a requirement that a creditor act
reasonably and in good faith.

          (b) Certain remedial and waiver provisions of the 364-Day Credit
Agreement may be unenforceable in whole or in part, but the inclusion of such
provisions does not affect the validity of the 364-Day Credit Agreement;
however, the unenforceability of such provisions may result in delays in the
enforcement of the Administrative Agent's and the Banks' rights and remedies
under the 364-Day Credit Agreement (and we express no opinion as to the economic
consequences, if any, of such delays).

          (c) We express no opinion as to the effect of the compliance or
noncompliance of the Administrative Agent or any of the Banks with any state or
federal laws or regulations applicable to the Administrative Agent or any of the
Banks because of the Administrative Agent's or any of the Banks' legal or
regulatory status, the nature of the business of the Administrative Agent or any
of the Banks or the qualification of any such party to conduct business in any
jurisdiction.

     The foregoing opinions are limited to the laws of the United States, the
State of Illinois and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, and
we express no opinion with respect to the laws of any other state or
jurisdiction.

     Whenever in this opinion reference is made to our knowledge, such reference
is to the conscious awareness of [insert appropriate names] of information
regarding factual matters. With respect to such matters, such persons have not,
with your express permission and consent, undertaken any investigation or
inquiry either of other lawyers, files maintained by the firm, or officers or
employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (including without
limitation the Borrowing Subsidiary). The reference to "conscious awareness" as
used in this paragraph has the meaning given that phrase in the Third-Party
Legal Opinion Report, Including the Legal Opinion Accord, of the Section of
Business Law, American Bar Association, 47 Bus. Law. 167, 192 (1991). The
opinions expressed herein are being delivered to you as of the date hereof and
are solely for your benefit in connection with the transactions contemplated in
the 364-Day Credit Agreement and may not be relied on in any manner or for any
purpose by any other person, nor any copies published, communicated or otherwise
made available in whole or in part to any other person or entity without our
express prior written consent, except that you may furnish copies thereof to
each party that becomes a Bank after the date hereof pursuant to the 364-Day
Credit Agreement, and such parties may rely on this opinion as if it had been

                  Opinion of Counsel to a Borrowing Subsidiary

                                     [Date]

To each of the Banks parties to
the "364-Day Credit Agreement" (as defined below),
and to Bank One, NA, as Administrative Agent

     Re: [Borrowing Subsidiary]

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     We have acted as counsel to R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company, a Delaware
corporation (the "Company") and __________________, a ___________ corporation
and Subsidiary of the Company (the "Borrowing Subsidiary"), in connection with
the 364-Day Credit Agreement dated as of October 10, 2002 (as the same has been
or may be amended, modified or supplemented, the "364-Day Credit Agreement")
among the Company, the financial institutions parties thereto (the "Banks") and
Bank One, NA, as Administrative Agent, and the transactions contemplated
thereby.

     This opinion is furnished to you at the request of the Company pursuant to
Section 3.02(e) of the 364-Day Credit Agreement. Capitalized terms used herein
and not otherwise defined are used as defined in the 364-Day Credit Agreement.

     In connection with this opinion, we have examined originals or copies,
certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of the 364-Day Credit
Agreement, the Assumption Letter of even date herewith executed by the Borrowing
Subsidiary and delivered to the Banks (the "Assumption Letter") and the
promissory notes executed by the Borrowing Subsidiary on the date hereof and
delivered to the Banks (the "Notes").

     In rendering the opinions set forth herein, we have also examined originals
or copies, certified to our satisfaction, of such (i) certificates of public
officials, (ii) certificates of officers and representatives of the Company and
the Borrowing Subsidiary (including the certificate attached hereto (the
"Certificate")), and (iii) other documents and records, and we have made such
inquiries of officers and representatives of the Company and the Borrowing
Subsidiary, as we have deemed relevant or necessary as the basis for such
opinions. We have relied as to factual matters upon, and assumed the accuracy
of, such certificates, the representations and warranties of the Company and the
Borrowing Subsidiary made (or deemed made) in the 364-Day Credit Agreement and
the Assumption Letter, and other statements, documents and records supplied to
us by the Company and the Borrowing Subsidiary, and we have assumed the
genuineness of all signatures (other than signatures of officers of the
Borrowing Subsidiary) and the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as
originals and the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to
us as certified or photostatic copies.

                               Exhibit H - Page 1

<PAGE>

     In rendering the opinions set forth herein, we have assumed that:

     (i) all the parties to the 364-Day Credit Agreement and the Assumption
Letter, other than the Borrowing Subsidiary, are duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of their respective jurisdictions
of organization and have the requisite corporate power to enter into the 364-Day
Credit Agreement and the Assumption Letter; and

     (ii) the execution and delivery of the 364-Day Credit Agreement have been
duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and proceedings on the part of
all parties thereto; the 364-Day Credit Agreement has been duly executed and
delivered by all parties thereto and constitutes the valid and binding
obligation of all parties thereto, other than the Borrowing Subsidiary,
enforceable against such parties in accordance with its terms.

     Based upon the foregoing and subject to the qualifications stated herein,
we are of the opinion that, as of the date hereof:

     1. The Borrowing Subsidiary has been duly organized and is validly existing
and in good standing under the laws of _____________. The Borrowing Subsidiary
has the requisite corporate power and authority to conduct its business as
currently conducted.

     2. The Borrowing Subsidiary has the requisite corporate power and authority
to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Assumption Letter, the
364-Day Credit Agreement and the Notes. Such execution, delivery and
performance:

          (a) have been duly authorized by all necessary and proper corporate
action of the Borrowing Subsidiary,

          (b) do not violate any provision of the certificate of incorporation
or by-laws of the Borrowing  Subsidiary or require any approval of the Borrowing
Subsidiary's stockholders,

          (c) will not  violate  any law or  regulation  of  ____________,  the
State  of  Illinois  (including,  without limitation, any usury laws) or of the
United States of America applicable to the Borrowing Subsidiary,  and

          (d) do not  contravene  any agreement set forth on the  Certificate,
or, to our  knowledge,  any other material agreement or instrument binding on
the Borrowing Subsidiary.

     3. The Assumption Letter constitutes, and from and after the initial
Committed Borrowing to the Borrowing Subsidiary, the Notes will constitute, the
valid and binding obligations of the Borrowing Subsidiary, enforceable in
accordance with their respective terms.

     4. No approval, consent or authorization of, or filing or registration
with, any governmental department, agency or instrumentality is necessary for
the Borrowing Subsidiary's execution or delivery of the Assumption Letter or the
Notes, or for the Borrowing Subsidiary's performance of any of the terms
thereof.

     Our opinions above are subject to the following qualifications:

                               Exhibit H - Page 2

<PAGE>

          (a) Our opinions relating to validity, binding effect and
enforceability in Paragraph 3 above are subject to limitations imposed by any
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance,
moratorium and similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally. In addition,
our opinions relating to enforceability in paragraph 3 above are subject to (i)
the effect of general principles of equity (regardless of whether considered in
a proceeding in equity or at law) and (ii) limitations imposed by public policy
under certain circumstances on the enforceability of provisions indemnifying a
party against liability for its own wrongful or negligent acts. In applying
principles of equity referred to in clause (i) above, a court, among other
things, might not allow a creditor to accelerate maturity of a debt upon the
occurrence of a default deemed immaterial. Such principles applied by a court
might include a requirement that a creditor act reasonably and in good faith.

          (b) Certain remedial and waiver provisions of the 364-Day Credit
Agreement applicable to the Borrowing Subsidiary pursuant to the Assumption
Letter may be unenforceable in whole or in part, but the inclusion of such
provisions does not affect the validity of the Assumption Letter; however, the
unenforceability of such provisions may result in delays in the enforcement of
the Administrative Agent's and the Banks' rights and remedies under the
Assumption Letter (and we express no opinion as to the economic consequences, if
any, of such delays).

          (c) We express no opinion as to the effect of the compliance or
noncompliance of the Administrative Agent or any of the Banks with any state or
federal laws or regulations applicable to the Administrative Agent or any of the
Banks because of the Administrative Agent's or any of the Banks' legal or
regulatory status, the nature of the business of the Administrative Agent or any
of the Banks or the qualification of any such party to conduct business in any
jurisdiction.

     The foregoing opinions are limited to the laws of the United States, the
State of Illinois and the corporate law of [jurisdiction where the Borrowing
Subsidiary is incorporated] and we express no opinion with respect to the laws
of any other state or jurisdiction.

     Whenever in this opinion reference is made to our knowledge, such reference
is to the conscious awareness of [insert appropriate names] of information
regarding factual matters. With respect to such matters, such persons have not,
with your express permission and consent, undertaken any investigation or
inquiry either of other lawyers, files maintained by the firm, or officers or
employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (including without
limitation the Borrowing Subsidiary). The reference to "conscious awareness" as
used in this paragraph has the meaning given that phrase in the Third-Party
Legal Opinion Report, Including the Legal Opinion Accord, of the Section of
Business Law, American Bar Association, 47 Bus. Law. 167, 192 (1991).

     The opinions expressed herein are being delivered to you as of the date
hereof and are solely for your benefit in connection with the transactions
contemplated in the 364-Day Credit Agreement and may not be relied on in any
manner or for any purpose by any other person, nor any copies published,
communicated or otherwise made available in whole or in part to any other person
or entity without our express prior written consent, except that you may furnish
copies thereof to each party that becomes a Bank after the date hereof pursuant
to the 364-Day Credit

                               Exhibit H - Page 3

Agreement, and such parties may rely on this opinion as if it had been
originally addressed to them.

     We do not express any opinion, either implicitly or otherwise, on any issue
not expressly addressed in numbered Paragraphs 1 through 4. The opinions
expressed above are based solely on facts, laws and regulations existing and in
effect on the date hereof, and we assume no obligation to revise or supplement
this opinion should such facts change or should such laws or regulations be

notwithstanding that such changes may affect the legal analysis or conclusions
contained in this opinion.

                                         Very truly yours,
