(A)  Indemnity: In consideration of the Guarantor Banks agreeing to issue the

     (1)  the Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to and
          agrees with each of the Guarantor Banks that it will at all times
          fully indemnify and save harmless each of the Guarantor Banks from and
          against any and all actions, proceedings, liabilities, claims,
          demands, losses, damages, charges, costs and expenses of whatever
          nature which the Guarantor Banks or any of them may at any time and
          from time to time directly or indirectly sustain, incur or suffer
          (a) by reason of any claim or demand made under the EDB Guarantee or

          EDB Guarantee or otherwise in connection with or arising out of the
          EDB Guarantee, (b) by reason of this Agreement, (c) as a result of any
          default by the Borrower in the due and punctual payment of any sum
          payable by it under or in connection with this Agreement or the EDB
          Loan Agreement and/or (d) as a result of any default by the Borrower
          in the due and punctual performance of any of its other obligations
          under this Agreement or the EDB Loan Agreement (excluding, for the
          avoidance of doubt, any actions, proceedings, liabilities, claims,
          demands, losses, damages, charges, costs and expenses incurred by any
          of the Guarantor Banks by reason of its negligence or wilful
          misconduct or those of its officers, employees or agents) Provided
          That, for the avoidance of doubt, in the event that the EDB Guarantee
          is not issued, the Borrower shall not be obliged to indemnify any of
          the Guarantor Banks under this Clause 5(A)(1);

     (2)  without prejudice to the generality of the provisions of
          paragraph (1), the Borrower covenants and undertakes to pay to each of
          the Guarantor Banks by way of indemnity at any time and from time to
          time immediately upon demand by the Agent or that Guarantor Bank all
          moneys and liabilities whatsoever which may from time to time be
          claimed or demanded from that Guarantor Bank or which that Guarantor
          Bank may pay or is liable to pay or sustain, incur or suffer under or
          by reason of or in connection with the EDB Guarantee (excluding, for
          the avoidance of doubt, any moneys or liabilities sustained, incurred
          or suffered by any of the Guarantor Banks by reason of its negligence
          or wilful misconduct or those of its officers, employees or agents).
          The Borrower shall make payment to the Agent or that Guarantor Bank
          following such claim or demand notwithstanding that at the time of the
          claim or demand that Guarantor Bank is not liable under or required by
          law to make any payment under or in connection with the EDB Guarantee
          and notwithstanding any other fact or circumstance which may
          constitute a defence or discharge to that Guarantor Bank in respect of
          the claim or demand made against it under or in connection with the
          EDB Guarantee; and

     (3)  the Borrower further agrees to pay to each of the Guarantor Banks on
          demand interest on all sums demanded by the Agent or that Guarantor
          Bank from it pursuant to the provisions of this sub-Clause (A) from
          and including the relevant due date of demand for payment of the same
          until the date of actual payment (both before and after judgment),
          part of a day being treated
<PAGE>   19
                                       16

          as a complete day. Interest payable pursuant to the provisions of this
          paragraph (3) shall be calculated and paid at the rate per annum (as
          determined by the Agent) equal to the sum of 0.625 per cent. and the
          cost to that Guarantor Bank of funding such sums for such period or
          periods as that Guarantor Bank may determine by whatever means it
          reasonably determines to be most appropriate (including the cost to
          that Guarantor Bank occasioned by or attributable to complying with
          reserves, liquidity, deposit or other requirements for the time being
          imposed on it by the relevant authority or authorities). Such interest
          shall accrue from day to day and shall be calculated on the basis of a
          year of 365 days and the actual number of days elapsed. In this
          paragraph (3), the expression "due date of demand for payment" means
          the date on which that Guarantor Bank has made a payment under or in
          connection with the EDB Guarantee in respect of which that Guarantor
          Bank's right to indemnity arises under this sub-Clause (A) (whether or
          not a demand for indemnity under this sub-Clause (A) was actually made
          by that Guarantor Bank on that day).

(B)  Further Authority: The Guarantor Banks may at all times immediately pay,
discharge and satisfy upon demand by EDB any amounts claimed by EDB under or in
connection with the EDB Guarantee without any reference or further authority
from the Borrower, without further investigation or inquiry and without
inquiring and without requiring proof or the agreement of the Borrower that the
amounts so demanded are due and notwithstanding that the Borrower disputes the
validity of any such demands or payments (whether or not such dispute is
disclosed to any of the Guarantor Banks). The Guarantor Banks need not concern
themselves with the propriety of any claim or demand made or purported to be
made under or in connection with the EDB Guarantee and it shall not be a defence
to any demand made of the Borrower, nor shall the liability of the Borrower
under this Clause be affected or impaired by the fact that any of the Guarantor
Banks was or might have been justified in refusing payment in whole or in part
of the amounts so demanded.

(C)  Good Faith: The Borrower further agrees that any action or step taken by
any of the Guarantor Banks in good faith under or in connection with this
Agreement shall be binding on it and shall not place that Guarantor Bank under
any liability to it.

(D)  Obligations Continuing: The obligations of the Borrower under this Clause
are and will remain in full force and effect by way of continuing security until
no sum remains payable by the Borrower under this Agreement or by any of the
Guarantor Banks under the EDB Guarantee and the Guarantee Commitments cease to
remain in effect. Furthermore, those obligations are additional to, and not
instead of, any other agreement, security, indemnity, guarantee, right, remedy
or lien at any time existing in favour of any person, whether from the Borrower
or otherwise.

(E)  No Discharge: The Borrower shall not be discharged, nor shall its liability
under this Clause or any other provision of this Agreement be affected, by any
matter or thing whatsoever (including, without limitation, (1) any time,
indulgence, waiver, forbearance, concession or consent at any time given to any
of the Guarantor Banks, the Borrower, any Shareholder or any other person,
(2) any amendment or supplement to any provision of the EDB Guarantee, this
Agreement or any other agreement, security, indemnity, guarantee, right, remedy
or lien, (3) the making or absence of any demand on the Borrower, any
Shareholder or any other person for payment, (4) the enforcement or absence of
enforcement of the EDB Guarantee, this Agreement or any other agreement,
security, indemnity, guarantee, right, remedy or lien, (5) the taking, existence
or release of any agreement, security, indemnity, guarantee, right, remedy or
lien, (6) the insolvency, winding-up, amalgamation, reconstruction or
reorganisation of the Borrower, any Shareholder or any other person (or the
commencement of any of the foregoing) and (7) the illegality, invalidity or
unenforceability of, or any defect in, any provision of the EDB Guarantee, this
Agreement or any other agreement, security, indemnity, guarantee, right, remedy
or lien or of any obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement or any other
agreement, security, indemnity, guarantee, right, remedy or lien).

                                       17

(F)  Non-Amendment of EDB Guarantee: Each of the Guarantor Banks agree with the
Borrower that (without prejudice to the obligations of the Borrower under or in
connection with this Agreement), they will not amend or agree to any amendment
of the EDB Guarantee without the prior consent in writing of the Borrower.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this sub-Clause (F), nothing in this
sub-Clause (F) shall affect or prejudice the obligations of the Borrower under
or in connection with this Agreement or release the Borrower from any of its
obligations under or in connection with this Agreement (notwithstanding any

one, three or six months' duration, as selected by the Borrower in a notice
received by the Agent no later than 10 a.m. on the fourth Business Day before

     (1)  the first Interest Period relating to any Advance shall begin on the
          proposed date of that Advance and shall end (in the case of the first
          Advance) one, three or six months thereafter, as so selected by the

          instead end on 30th June of that year and if the Borrower wishes to

of the respective rates which are quoted as of 11 a.m. on the second Business
<PAGE>   25

                                     22

Day before the first day of that Interest Period on the page "LIBO" of the
Reuter Monitor Money Rates Service (or such other page as may replace the LIBO
page for the purpose of displaying London inter-bank US Dollar offered rates of
leading reference banks) as being the interest rates offered in the London
inter-bank market for US Dollar deposits for the same period as that Interest
Period (or, if the periods are not the same, such period as the Agent determines
to be substantially the same) but:-

     (1)  if only two or three such offered quotations appear, the relevant
          arithmetic mean (rounded as mentioned above) shall be determined on
          the basis of those offered quotations; and

     (2)  if no, or only one, such offered quotation appears, the relevant
          arithmetic mean (rounded as mentioned above) shall be determined on
          the basis of the respective rates (as quoted to the Agent at its
          request) at which each Reference Bank is offering US Dollar deposits
          for that Interest Period in an amount comparable to the Advance to
          which that Interest Period relates to prime banks in the London
          inter-bank market at or about 11 a.m. on the second Business Day
          before the first day of that Interest Period. If any Reference Bank
          does not supply any quotation required from it for the purpose of this
          Agreement, the relevant arithmetic mean (rounded up, if necessary, to
          the next 1/16 per cent.) shall be determined on the basis of the
          quotations supplied by the remaining Reference Banks.

(C)  Notification of Interest Periods and Rates: The Agent shall promptly notify
(1) the Borrower and the Lending Banks of each rate of interest determined in

or not a party to, or on behalf of a party to, this Agreement) must at any time
deduct or withhold any tax or other amount from any sum paid or payable by, or
received or receivable from, the Borrower under this Agreement, the Borrower
shall pay such additional amount as is necessary to ensure that the Agent, the
Security Trustee or, as the case may be, the Bank to which that sum is due
receives on the due date and retains (free from any liability other than tax on
its own overall net income) a net sum equal to what it would have received and
so retained had no such deduction or withholding been required or made.

     (2) If the Borrower or any other person (whether or not a party to, or on
behalf of a party to, this Agreement) must at any time pay any tax or other
amount on, or calculated by reference to, any sum received or receivable by the
Agent, the Security Trustee or, as the case may be, any Bank under this

<PAGE>   27
                                       24

interest or penalty becomes payable or, if that tax or other amount is payable

demand for the amount paid by it.

     (3) Within 30 days after paying any sum from which it is required by law to

as the case may be, the relevant Bank of that deduction, withholding or payment

tax invoice complying with the Goods and Services Act (Cap. 117A) also pay to
the Agent, the Security Trustee and each Bank on demand, in addition to any
amount payable by the Borrower to the Agent or, as the case may be, the relevant
Bank under this Agreement, any goods and services, value added or other similar
tax payable in respect of that amount (and references in this Agreement to that
amount shall (where appropriate) be deemed to include any such taxes payable in
addition to it).

(D)  Refund of Tax Credits: If:-

     (1)  the Borrower makes a payment under sub-Clause (B)(1) or (2) (a "Tax
          Payment") in respect of a payment to a Bank under this Agreement; and

          net income (a "Tax Credit") which that Bank in its absolute discretion
          is able to identify as attributable to that Tax Payment,

then, if in its absolute discretion it can do so without any adverse
consequences for that Bank, that Bank shall reimburse the Borrower such amount
as that Bank in its absolute discretion determines to be such proportion of that
Tax Credit as will leave that Bank (after that reimbursement) in no better or
worse position in respect of its worldwide tax liabilities than it would have
been in if no Tax Payment had been required. A Bank shall have an absolute
discretion as to whether to claim any Tax Credit (and, if it does claim, the
extent, order and manner in which it does so) and whether any amount is due from
it under this sub-Clause (D) (and, if so, what amount and when). No Bank shall
be obliged to disclose any information regarding its tax affairs and
computations.

          certify to be necessary to comply with the relevant law or directive
          but if the Borrower is unable for any
<PAGE>   28
                                       25

           reason to procure the release by EDB of all of the obligations of
           that Guarantor Bank under the EDB Guarantee by the Relevant Date, the
           Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of that Guarantor
           Bank on the Relevant Date an amount equal to that Guarantor Bank's
           share of the Guarantee Outstanding Amount (which shall be held by the
           Agent for the account of that Guarantor Bank and applied towards the
           discharge of the obligations of the Borrower to that Guarantor Bank
           under or in connection with this Agreement and shall only be released
           to the Borrower as and to the extent that the maximum contingent
           liability of the Borrower to that Guarantor Bank under this Agreement
           is reduced) and shall pay, on the date of payment of such amount, any
           sum then due from the Borrower to that Guarantor Bank under this
           Agreement.

           purchase by a nominee of all or any of the obligations of that
           Guarantor Bank under the EDB Guarantee, and any such prepayment or
           purchase shall be treated as a payment made pursuant to a demand by
           EDB under the EDB Guarantee and the provisions of Clause 5 shall
           apply to such prepayment or purchase;

     (ii)  negotiate any compromise, release, discharge, reduction or
           retirement of all or any part of the obligations of that Guarantor
           Bank under the EDB Guarantee and any payment made pursuant to the
           same shall be treated as a payment made pursuant to a demand by EDB
           under the EDB Guarantee and the provisions of Clause 5 shall apply
           to such payment; and

     (iii) pay any amount received by it under sub-paragraph (b) above to EDB
           in exchange for such payment of a release by EDB, to the extent of
           such payment, of the obligations of that Guarantor Bank under the
           EDB Guarantee, and the provisions of Clause 5 shall apply to such
           payment by that Guarantor Bank as if such payment had been made
           pursuant to a demand by EDB under the EDB Guarantee.

     (2) If at any time any Guarantor Bank reasonably determines that it is or
will become unlawful or contrary to any directive of any agency of any state for
it to allow all or part of its Tranche B Term Commitment to remain outstanding,
to make, fund or allow to remain outstanding all or part of its share of the
Tranche B Advances and/or to carry out all or any of its other obligations under
this Agreement, upon that Guarantor Bank notifying the Borrower (through the
Agent):-

     (a)   that Guarantor Bank's Tranche B Term Commitment shall be cancelled;
           and

     (b)   the Borrower shall prepay, without premium or penalty, that Guarantor
           Bank's share of each Tranche B Advance on such date as that Guarantor
           Bank shall certify to be necessary to comply with the relevant law or
           directive with all unpaid accrued interest thereon, all unpaid fees
           accrued to that Guarantor Bank and any other sum then due to that
           Guarantor Bank under Clause 19(A) or any other provision of this
           Agreement in respect of the amount prepaid.

     (3) If at any time any Lending Bank reasonably determines that it is or
will become unlawful or contrary to any directive of any agency of any state for
it to allow all or part of its Tranche
<PAGE>   29
                                       26

     (a)   that Lending Bank's Tranche A Term Commitment shall be cancelled;
           and

     (b)   the Borrower shall prepay, without premium or penalty, that Lending
           Bank's share of each Tranche A Advance on such date as that Lending
           Bank shall certify to be necessary to comply with the relevant law
           or directive with all unpaid accrued interest thereon, all unpaid
           fees accrued to that Lending Bank and any other sum then due to that
           Lending Bank under Clause 19(A) or any other provision of this
           Agreement in respect of the amount prepaid.

(B)  Increased Costs: (1) If the Agent or (as the case may be) any Bank
reasonably determines that as a result of (a) the introduction of or any change
in, or in the interpretation or application of, any law (which shall for this
purpose include any removal or modification of any exemption currently in force
in favour of the Borrower) or (b) compliance by the Agent or that Bank with the
introduction of or any change in, or the interpretation or application of, any
directive of any agency of any state (including, without limitation, a directive
which affects the manner in which that Bank allocates capital resources to its
obligations under this Agreement):-

     (i)   the cost to that Bank of maintaining all or any part of its
           Commitments and/or of making, maintaining or funding all or any part
           of its Outstandings or any overdue sum is increased; and/or

     (ii)  any sum received or receivable by the Agent or (as the case may be)
           that Bank under this Agreement or the effective return to it under
           this Agreement or the overall return on its capital is reduced
           (except on account of tax on its overall net income); and/or

     (iii) the Agent or (as the case may be) that Bank makes any payment
           (except on account of tax on its overall net income) or forgoes any
           interest or other return on or calculated by reference to the amount
           of any sum received or receivable by it under this Agreement,

the Borrower shall indemnify the Agent or (as the case may be) that Bank against
that increased cost, reduction, payment or forgone interest or other return
(except to the extent that it results from a deduction or withholding of tax)
and, accordingly, shall from time to time on demand (whenever made) pay to the
Agent for its own account or (as the case may be) for the account of that Bank
the amount certified by it to be necessary so to indemnify it.

     (2) The indemnity given to a Bank by the Borrower in this sub-Clause (B)
shall not apply to or in respect of any increased cost, reduction, payment or
foregone interest or other return to the extent that it is attributable solely
to the requirement of any central bank or other fiscal, monetary or other
authority which regulates that Bank which is imposed on that Bank by reason of
that Bank's misconduct and not generally imposed by that central bank or other
fiscal, monetary or other authority on banks of the same or similar kind or
class regulated by that central bank or other fiscal, monetary or other
authority.

(C)  Change in Market Conditions: (1) (a) If, in relation to any Interest Period
relating to a Tranche A Advance:-

     (i)   no, or only one, Reference Bank supplies a quotation as and when
           required by Clause 9(B); or
<PAGE>   30
                                       27

          (ii) the Agent is notified by the Lending Banks to whom more than 66
               2/3 per cent. of that Tranche A Advance is (or, if made, would
               be) owing that (AA) they are unable to obtain matching deposits
               in the London inter-bank market at or about 11 a.m. on the second
               Business Day before the first day of that Interest Period in
               sufficient amounts to fund their respective shares of that
               Tranche A Advance during that Interest Period, or (BB) the
               arithmetic mean (rounded up, if necessary, to the next 1/16 per
               cent.) of the quotations used for fixing the interest rate under
               Clause 9(B) does not reflect the cost to those Lending Banks of
               obtaining such deposits, or (CC) by reason of circumstances
               affecting the London inter-bank market, adequate and fair means
               do not or will not exist for determining the rate of interest
               applicable to that Tranche A Advance for that Interest Period,

the Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lending Banks.

     (b) The Agent (on behalf of and after consultation with the Lending Banks)
shall then negotiate with the Borrower with a view to agreeing on an alternative
basis for calculating the interest payable on and/or for making, maintaining
and/or funding that Tranche A Advance to which that Interest Period relates. Any
alternative basis agreed in writing by the Agent (on behalf of and with the
consent of all the Lending Banks) and the Borrower within 25 days of the Agent's
notification of the event in question shall take effect in accordance with its
terms.

     (c) If an alternative basis is not so agreed, each Lending Bank's share of
that Tranche A Advance shall during that Interest Period bear interest at the
rate per annum equal to the sum of the Margin and the cost to it (expressed as a
rate per annum) of funding its share during that Interest Period by whatever
means it determines to be appropriate (including the cost to it occasioned by or
attributable to complying with reserves, liquidity, deposit or other
requirements for the time being imposed on it by the relevant authority or
authorities). Each Lending Bank shall certify that cost to the Borrower as soon
as practicable after the end of that 25 day period (but in any event at least
two Business Days before the end of that Interest Period). If the Borrower gives
to any Lending Bank not less than seven days' notice of the date of cancellation
and/or prepayment, it may cancel all (but not part only) of that Lending Bank's
Tranche A Term Commitment (if any), and/or prepay all (but not part only) of
that Lending Bank's Outstandings, without premium or penalty at any time during
(or within 30 days after the end of) that Interest Period after receipt of that
Lending Bank's certificate. Any such prepayment must be accompanied by accrued
interest and by any other sum then due to that Lending Bank under Clause 19(A)
or any other provision of this Agreement. The Borrower may not elect to cancel
the Tranche A Term Commitment and/or prepay the Outstandings of a Lending Bank
whose rate of interest as then so certified is equal to or lower than the rate
certified by another Lending Bank unless that other Lending Bank's Tranche A
Term Commitment is also cancelled and/or, as the case may be, its Outstandings
are also prepaid at the same time.

     (2)  (a) If, in relation to any Interest Period relating to a Tranche B
Advance:-

          (i)  no, or only one, Reference Bank supplies a quotation as and when
               required by Clause 9(B); or

          (ii) the Agent is notified by the Guarantor Banks to whom more than
               66 2/3 per cent. of that Tranche B Advance is (or, if made,
               would be) owing that (AA) they are unable to obtain matching
               deposits in the London inter-bank market at or about 11 a.m. on
               the second Business Day before the first day of that Interest
               Period in sufficient amounts to fund their respective shares of
               that Tranche B Advance during that Interest Period, or (BB) the
               arithmetic mean (rounded up, if necessary, to the next 1/16 per
               cent.) of the quotations used for fixing the interest rate under
               Clause 9(B) does not reflect the cost to those Guarantor Banks
               of obtaining such deposits, or (CC) by reason of
<PAGE>   31
                                       28

          circumstances affecting the London inter-bank market, adequate and
          fair means do not or will not exist for determining the rate of
          interest applicable to that Tranche B Advance for that Interest
          Period,

the Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Guarantor Banks.

     (b) The Agent (on behalf of and after consultation with the Guarantor
Banks) shall then negotiate with the Borrower with a view to agreeing on an
alternative basis for calculating the interest payable on and/or for making,
maintaining and/or funding that Tranche B Advance to which that Interest Period
relates. Any alternative basis agreed in writing by the Agent (on behalf of and
with the consent of all the Guarantor Banks) and the Borrower within 25 days of
the Agent's notification of the event in question shall take effect in
accordance with its terms.

     (c) If an alternative basis is not so agreed, each Guarantor Bank's share
of that Tranche B Advance shall during that Interest Period bear interest at the
rate per annum equal to the sum of the Margin and the cost to it (expressed as a
rate per annum) of funding its share during that Interest Period by whatever
means it determines to be appropriate (including the cost to it occasioned by or
attributable to complying with reserves, liquidity, deposit or other
requirements for the time being imposed on it by the relevant authority or
authorities). Each Guarantor Bank shall certify that cost to the Borrower as
soon as practicable after the end of that 25 day period (but in any event at
least two Business Days before the end of that Interest Period). If the Borrower
gives to any Guarantor Bank not less than seven days' notice of the date of
cancellation and/or prepayment, it may cancel all (but not part only) of that
Guarantor Bank's Guarantee Commitment (if any) or, as the case may be, Tranche B
Term Commitment (if any), and/or prepay all (but not part only) of that
Guarantor Bank's Outstandings, without premium or penalty at any time during (or
within 30 days after the end of) that Interest Period after receipt of that
Guarantor Bank's certificate. Any such prepayment must be accompanied by accrued
interest and by any other sum then due to that Guarantor Bank under Clause 19(A)
or any other provision of this Agreement. The Borrower may not elect to cancel
the Guarantee Commitment or, as the case may be, the Tranche B Term Commitment
and/or prepay the Outstandings of a Guarantor Bank whose rate of interest as
then so certified is equal to or lower than the rate certified by another
Guarantor Bank unless that other Guarantor Bank's Guarantee Commitment or, as
the case may be, Tranche B Term Commitment is also cancelled and/or, as the case
may be, its Outstandings are also prepaid at the same time.

(D)  Individual Non-Availability: (1) (a) If, in relation to any Interest Period
relating to a Tranche A Advance, any Lending Bank notifies the Agent that:-

     (i)  by reason of circumstances affecting the London inter-bank market, or
          a particular category (which includes that Lending Bank) of banks
          dealing in that market, it is unable to obtain matching deposits in
          the London inter-bank market at or about 11 a.m. on the second
          Business Day before the first day of that Interest Period in
          sufficient amounts to fund its share of that Tranche A Advance during
          that Interest Period; or

     (ii) by reason of circumstances affecting that market or a particular
          category (which includes that Lending Bank) of banks dealing in that
          market, the arithmetic mean (rounded up, if necessary, to the next
          1/16 per cent.) of the quotations used for fixing the interest rate
          under Clause 9(B) does not reflect the cost to it of obtaining such
          deposits,

the Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower accordingly unless it has already
given a notification to the Borrower in relation to that Interest Period under
sub-Clause (C)(1).

     (b) The Borrower, the Agent and that Lending Bank shall then negotiate
(unless and until sub-Clause (C)(1) comes into operation in relation to that
Interest Period) with a view to agreeing on
<PAGE>   32
                                       29

an alternative basis for calculating the interest payable on and/or for making,
maintaining and/or funding that Lending Bank's share of that Tranche A Advance.
Any alternative basis agreed in writing by the Borrower, the Agent and that
Lending Bank within 25 days of the Agent's notification under paragraph (1)(a)
shall take effect in accordance with its terms. If an alternative basis is not
so agreed and sub-Clause (C)(1) has not come into operation in relation to that
Interest Period, that Lending Bank's share of that Tranche A Advance shall
during that Interest Period bear interest at the rate per annum equal to the sum
of the Margin and the cost to it (expressed as a rate per annum) of funding its
share during that Interest Period by whatever means it determines to be
appropriate (including the cost to it occasioned by or attributable to complying
with reserves, liquidity, deposit or other requirements for the time being
imposed on it by the relevant authority or authorities). That Lending Bank shall
certify that cost to the Borrower as soon as practicable after the end of that
25 day period (but in any event at least two Business Days before the end of
that Interest Period). The Borrower may, by notice to that Lending Bank, request
that Lending Bank to assign and transfer all of the rights and obligations of
that Lending Bank to such person as may be named by the Borrower in its notice
and that Lending Bank shall take such steps, at the cost and request of the
Borrower, as may be necessary to assign and transfer such rights and obligations
to such person (and, for the avoidance of doubt, such Lending Bank shall not be
obliged to take any such step until it has been indemnified against any and all
costs and expenses (including legal fees) which it may incur as a result).

     (2)  (a) If, in relation to any Interest Period relating to a Tranche B
Advance, any Guarantor Bank notifies the Agent that:-

          (i)  by reason of circumstances affecting the London inter-bank
               market, or a particular category (which includes that Guarantor
               Bank) of banks dealing in that market, it is unable to obtain
               matching deposits in the London inter-bank market at or about 11
               a.m. on the second Business Day before the first day of that
               Interest Period in sufficient amounts to fund its share of that
               Tranche B Advance during that Interest Period; or

          (ii) by reason of circumstances affecting that market or a particular
               category (which includes that Guarantor Bank) of banks dealing
               in that market, the arithmetic mean (rounded up, if necessary,
               to the next 1/16 per cent.) of the quotations used for fixing
               he interest rate under Clause 9(B) does not reflect the cost to
               it of obtaining such deposits,

the Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower accordingly unless it has already
given a notification to the Borrower in relation to that Interest Period under
sub-Clause (C)(2).

     (b) The Borrower, the Agent and that Guarantor Bank shall then negotiate
(unless and until sub-Clause (C)(2) comes into operation in relation to that
Interest Period) with a view to agreeing on an alternative basis for calculating
the interest payable on and/or for making, maintaining and/or funding that
Guarantor Bank's share of that Tranche B Advance. Any alternative basis agreed
in writing by the Borrower, the Agent and that Guarantor Bank within 25 days of
the Agent's notification under paragraph (2)(a) shall take effect in accordance
with its terms. If an alternative basis is not so agreed and sub-Clause (C)(2)
has not come into operation in relation to that Interest Period, that Guarantor
Bank's share of that Tranche B Advance shall during that Interest Period bear
interest at the rate per annum equal to the sum of the Margin and the cost to it
(expressed as a rate per annum) of funding its share during that Interest Period
by whatever means it determines to be appropriate (including the cost to it
occasioned by or attributable to complying with reserves, liquidity, deposit or
other requirements for the time being imposed on it by the relevant authority or
authorities). That Guarantor Bank shall certify that cost to the Borrower as
soon as practicable after the end of that 25 day period (but in any event at
least two Business Days before the end of that Interest Period). The Borrower
may, by notice to that Guarantor Bank, request that Guarantor Bank to assign and
transfer all of the rights and obligations of that Guarantor Bank to such person
as may be named by the Borrower in its notice and that Guarantor Bank shall take
such steps, at the cost and request of the
<PAGE>   33
                                       30

Borrower, as may be necessary to assign and transfer such rights and obligations
to such person (and, for the avoidance of doubt, such Guarantor Bank shall not
be obliged to take any such step until it has been indemnified against any and
all costs and expenses (including legal fees) which it may incur as a result).

(E)  Mitigation: If any circumstances arise which result, or would on the giving
of notice (or the like) result, in the Borrower having to make a payment to or
for the account of the Agent or any Bank under sub-Clause (B) or in the
Guarantee Commitments or any part thereof, the Tranche A Term Commitments or any
part thereof or the Tranche B Term Commitments or any part thereof, being
cancelled under sub-Clause (A), then without in any way limiting, reducing or
otherwise qualifying any of the obligations of the Borrower under this Clause,
the Borrower and the Agent or, as the case may be, the relevant Bank shall enter
into consultation with each other with a view towards the Agent or, as the case
may be, that Bank assigning or transferring some or all of its rights or
obligations under this Agreement to another person acceptable to the Borrower
and willing to take that assignment or transfer (provided that no obligation
whatsoever shall be imposed on the Agent or, as the case may be, such Bank to
procure any person to accept that assignment or transfer) and/or the mitigation
of the effect of those circumstances on the Borrower. However, none of the Banks
nor the Agent shall be obliged to take any such steps which would or might have
an adverse effect on the Agent or, as the case may be, such Bank.

13.  PAYMENTS

               Clearing House Interbank Payment System (or, if such funds cease
               to exist or, in the Agent's opinion, cease to be customary for
               the settlement in New York City of international banking
               transactions in US Dollars, such other US Dollar funds as the

               purpose), so as to be received before 11 a.m. (local time in New

     (2) The Agent shall make available to each Bank its pro rata share (if any)

available to the Agent later than required by paragraph (1), the Agent shall
make each Bank's share (if any) available to it as soon as practicable
thereafter.

(D)  Order of Distribution: (1) If the amount received by the Agent from the
Borrower for the account of the Guarantor Banks on any date is less than the
total sum remaining and/or becoming due to the Guarantor Banks under this
Agreement on that date, the Agent shall apply that amount in or towards payment

Any such applications shall override any purported appropriation by any person.

     (2) If the amount received by the Agent from the Borrower for the account

any person any sum which it is expecting to receive for the account of that
person until it has been able to establish that it has received that sum.
However, it may do so if it wishes. If and to the extent that it does so but it
transpires that it had not then received the sum which it paid out:-

     (1)  the person to whom the Agent made that sum available shall on request
          refund it to the Agent; and

     (2)  that person or (at the option of the Agent) the person by whom that
          sum should have been made available shall on request pay to the Agent
          the amount (as certified by the Agent) which will indemnify the Agent
          against any funding or other cost, loss, expense or liability
          sustained or incurred by it as a result of paying out that sum before
          receiving it but without prejudice to the rights of any party hereto

     (2) Any payment to be made by the Borrower on a day which is not an
Interest Payment Date, a Guarantee Fee Payment Date or a Repayment Date and
which would otherwise be due on a non-Business Day shall instead be due on the
next Business Day.

          enforcement of or compliance with any of the obligations of the
          Borrower under the Financing Documents or for any Shareholder to
          perform or comply with any one or more of its obligations under the
          Shareholders Undertaking or (b) which has or could have a material
          adverse effect on the Borrower or on any Shareholder (other than a

          abandoned;

     (16) Damage: the Plant or any part of the Plant is damaged to an extent

          Borrower has infringed any third party intellectual property rights in
          the course of manufacturing products in Singapore, in the operation of
          the Plant in Singapore or otherwise, the Majority Banks reasonably
          determine that the potential or actual liability of the Borrower in
          respect of such law suit or other legal proceedings would be
          reasonably likely to result in the Borrower being unable to perform or
          comply with any of its obligations under the Financing Documents;

     (19) Shareholding: (a) CSM ceases for any reason to be (either directly or
          through any one or more of its wholly-owned subsidiaries) the legal

          capital of the Borrower; or

          to have an effective shareholding in at least 30 per cent. of the
          issued share capital of the Borrower, whether directly or indirectly;

     (20) Production Dates: (1) the Plant does not achieve a production rate of
          an aggregate of 2,000 wafer starts per month within 14 days of the

          of the Shareholders Undertaking) is declared by the Minister for
          Finance to be a company to which Part IX of the Companies Act, Chapter
          50 applies;

     (22) Analogous Event: any event occurs which, under the law of any relevant
          jurisdiction, has an analogous or equivalent effect to any of the
          events mentioned in paragraphs (5), (6), (8) or (10); or

     (23) Material Adverse Change: any event occurs or circumstances arise which
          the Majority Banks reasonably determine give(s) reasonable grounds for
          believing that the Borrower will not (or will be unable to) perform or
          comply with any one or more of its obligations under any Financing
          Document or that any Shareholder (other than a Shareholder which has
          discharged all its obligations under Clause 2(A) of the Shareholders
          Undertakings) will not (or will be unable to) perform or comply with
          any one or more of its obligations under the Shareholders Undertaking.

(B)  Cancellation/Acceleration: (1) If at any time and for any reason (and
whether within or beyond the control of any party to this Agreement) any Event
of Default has occurred then at any time thereafter, while an Event of Default
is continuing, the Agent may and, if so instructed by the Majority Banks, shall
by notice to the Borrower:-

     (a)  declare the Commitments to be cancelled, whereupon they shall be
          cancelled; and/or

     (b)  declare all Advances, all unpaid accrued interest or fees and any
          other sum then payable under this Agreement to be immediately due and
          payable, whereupon they shall become so due and payable; and/or

     (c)  demand from the Borrower payment of an amount equal to the Guarantee
          Outstanding Amount, whereupon the Borrower shall pay to the Agent such
          amount, which shall be held by the Agent for the account of the

          Bank may be entitled, the Agent may:-

          (i)   prepay on behalf of the Borrower or purchase itself or procure
                the purchase by a nominee of all or any of the obligations of
                the Guarantor Banks under the EDB Guarantee, and any such
                prepayment or purchase shall be treated as a payment made
                pursuant to a demand by EDB under the EDB Guarantee and the
                provisions of Clause 5 shall apply to such prepayment or
                purchase;
<PAGE>   51
                                       48

                Banks under the EDB Guarantee and any payment made pursuant to
                the same shall be treated as a payment made pursuant to a demand
                by EDB under the EDB Guarantee and the provisions of Clause 5
                shall apply to such payment; and

          (iii) pay any amount received by it under sub-paragraph (c)(ii) above
                to EDB in exchange for such payment of a release by EDB, to the
                extent of such payment, of the obligations of the Guarantor
                Banks under the EDB Guarantee, and the provisions of Clause 5
                shall apply to such payment by the Guarantor Banks as if such
                payment had been made pursuant to a demand by EDB under the EDB

Agreement (including, without limitation, the obligation of the Borrower to make
any payment to the Agent and/or any of the Banks under paragraph (1) above), the
Agent shall, within three Business Days after any request from the Borrower made
at any time after the making of a declaration by the Agent under paragraph (1)
above by reason of the occurrence of an event referred to in sub-Clause (A)(22)
above, notify the Borrower of the grounds for the determination made by the
Majority Banks referred to in that sub-Clause (A)(22).

18.  DEFAULT INTEREST

(A)  Interest on Overdue Sums: If the Borrower does not pay any sum payable
under this Agreement (including, without limitation, any sum payable under this
Clause) when due, it shall pay interest on the amount from time to time
outstanding in respect of that overdue sum, in the currency of that overdue sum,
for the period beginning on its due date and ending on the date of its receipt
by the Agent (both before and after judgment) in accordance with this Clause.
For the purpose of this Clause, if any payment is received by the Agent on the
due date, but after the time required by Clause 13(A) and too late to be made
available by the Agent on that due date to the person(s) entitled to it under
Clause 13(C), that payment shall be deemed to be received on the next Business
Day.

(B)  Default Interest Periods and Rates: Interest under this Clause shall be
calculated by reference to successive Interest Periods, each of which (other
than the first, which shall begin on the due date) shall begin on the last day
of the previous one. Each such Interest Period shall be of one month or such
other period as the Agent may from time to time select and (1) the rate of
interest applicable to an overdue sum denominated in US Dollars for all or any
part of a particular Interest Period relating to that overdue sum shall be the
rate per annum equal to the sum of three per cent. and the rate which would be
applicable to that overdue sum for (or, as the case may be, for that part of)
that Interest Period under Clause 9(B) if that overdue sum were a non-overdue
Advance and (2) the rate of interest applicable to any other overdue sum
denominated in Singapore Dollars for all or any part of a particular Interest
Period relating to that overdue sum shall, in respect of each person's share of
that overdue sum on each day during that Interest Period, be the rate per annum
equal to the sum of three per cent., the Margin and the cost to that person (as
certified by it to the Agent and expressed as a rate per annum) of funding its
share of that overdue sum, except as follows:-

     (a)  subject to the following exceptions, until the third Business Day
          after the Agent becomes aware of the relevant default, each Interest
          Period relating to the relevant overdue sum denominated in US Dollars
          shall be an "overnight" period beginning on one Business Day and
          ending on the next and the rate of interest for a particular
          "overnight" period shall be the rate per annum equal to the sum of
          three per cent., the Margin and the arithmetic mean (rounded up, if
          necessary, to the next 1/16 per cent.) of the respective rates quoted
          by
<PAGE>   52
                                       49

          each Reference Bank to the Agent on request as the rate at which it is
          offering "overnight" deposits for that period in amounts comparable to
          that overdue sum;

     (b)  if the overdue sum is of principal of an Advance and becomes due
          otherwise than on an Interest Payment Date relating to that Advance,
          the first default Interest Period applicable to that overdue sum shall
          end on that Interest Payment Date and the rate of interest applicable
          to that sum for that Interest Period shall be the rate per annum equal
          to the sum of three per cent. and the rate applicable to it
          immediately before it became due; and

     (c)  if any event equivalent to those mentioned in Clause 12(C) occurs in
          relation to any Interest Period applicable to an overdue sum, the rate
          of interest payable on each person's share of that sum for all or any
          part of that Interest Period shall be the sum of three per cent., the
          Margin and the cost to that person (as certified by it and expressed
          as a rate per annum) of funding its share during that Interest Period
          by whatever means it determines to be appropriate (including the cost
          occasioned by or attributable to complying with reserves, liquidity,
          deposit or other requirements for the time being imposed on it by the
          relevant authority or authorities).

(C)  Notification of Interest Rates: The Agent shall promptly notify the
Borrower and the Banks of each rate of interest determined in accordance with
sub-Clause (B).

(D)  Payment and Compounding of Default Interest: (1) On each Interest Payment
Date, the Borrower shall pay the unpaid interest accrued during the relevant
Interest Period on the overdue sum to which it relates at the rate applicable
for the relevant Interest Period.

     (2) Interest accrued under this Clause on an overdue sum shall be due on
demand by the Agent but, if not previously demanded, shall be paid when due in
accordance with paragraph (1). If not paid when due, the interest shall be added
to that overdue sum and itself bear interest accordingly.

19.  INDEMNITIES

(A)  Miscellaneous Indemnities: The Borrower shall on demand indemnify each of
the Agent, the Lead Arrangers and the Banks against any funding or other cost,
loss, expense or liability sustained or incurred by it as a result of:-

     (1)  an Advance not being made by reason of non-fulfilment of any of the
          conditions in Clause 6(A) or 6(B) or the Borrower purporting to revoke
          a notice requesting an Advance;

     (2)  the occurrence and/or continuance of any Event of Default; or

     (3)  the receipt or recovery by any party (or the Agent on its behalf) of
          all or any part of an Advance or an overdue sum otherwise than on the
          last day of an Interest Period relating to that Advance or overdue
          sum.

(B)  Broken Funding Costs: In the case of sub-Clause (A)(1) and (3) above, the
amount payable shall in any event include the amount (if any) by which:-

     (1)  the amount of interest which the relevant person is able to obtain by
          placing an amount equal to its share of the relevant Advance or
          overdue sum on deposit in the London inter-bank market, for the
          remainder of the relevant
<PAGE>   53
                                       50

          Interest Period, as soon as reasonably practicable after it becomes
          aware that the relevant Advance is not being made or (as the case may
          be) of the relevant receipt or recovery,

is less than:-

     (2)  the amount of interest which, in accordance with the expressed terms
          of this Agreement, would otherwise be payable to that person on its
          share of that Advance for its first Interest Period or (as the case
          may be) on the relevant amount so received or recovered for the
          remainder of the relevant Interest Period.

(C)  Currency Indemnity: (1) Any amount received or recovered by the Agent, any
Lead Arranger or any Bank in respect of any sum expressed to be due to it from
the Borrower under or in connection with this Agreement in a currency (such
currency being referred to as the "Relevant Currency") other than the currency
in which such sum is expressed to be due under this Agreement (such currency
being referred to as the "Currency of Account") whether as a result of, or of
the enforcement of, a judgment or order of a court or tribunal of any
jurisdiction, in the winding-up of the Borrower or otherwise, shall only
constitute a discharge to the Borrower to the extent of the amount in the
Currency of Account which the recipient is able, in accordance with its usual
practice, to purchase with the amount of the Relevant Currency so received or
recovered on the date of that receipt or recovery (or, if it is not practicable
to make that purchase on that date, on the first date on which it is practicable
to do so).

     (2) If that amount in the Currency of Account is less than the amount of
the Currency of Account due to the recipient under or in connection with this
Agreement, the Borrower shall indemnify it against any loss sustained by it as a
result. In any event, the Borrower shall indemnify the recipient against the
cost of making any such purchase. For the purpose of this sub-Clause (C), it
will be sufficient for the recipient to demonstrate that it would have suffered
a loss had an actual exchange or purchase been made.

(D)  Indemnities Separate: Each of the indemnities in this Agreement constitutes
a separate and independent obligation from the other obligations in this
Agreement, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall
apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by the Agent, any Lead Arranger
and/or any Bank and shall continue in full force and effect despite any
judgment, order, claim or proof for a liquidated amount in respect of any sum
due under this Agreement or any other judgment or order.

20.  THE AGENT AND ARRANGERS

(A)  Appointment of Agent: Each Bank irrevocably appoints the Agent to act as
its agent for the purpose of the Financing Documents and authorises the Agent to
take such action and exercise such rights, powers and discretions as are
specifically delegated to the Agent by the Financing Documents and such other
action, rights, powers and discretions as are reasonably incidental. However,
the Agent may not begin any legal action or proceeding in the name of a Bank
without its consent. The relationship between the Agent and the Banks is of
agent and principal only. The Agent shall not be a trustee for any Bank, nor an
agent or trustee for the Borrower, under or in relation to the Financing
Documents.

          relating to a particular Bank shall be sent to that Bank only;
<PAGE>   54
                                       51

          this Agreement and of any document or information received by it under
          Clause 4 or 15;

     (3)  subject to the other provisions of this Clause, act in accordance with
          any instructions from the Majority Banks or, if so instructed by the
          Majority Banks, refrain from exercising a right, power or discretion
          vested in it under the Financing Documents; and

     (4)  have only those duties, obligations and responsibilities expressly
          specified in the Financing Documents.

(C)  Agent's Rights: The Agent may:-

     (1)  perform any of its duties, obligations and responsibilities under the
          Financing Documents by or through its personnel or agents;

     (2)  refrain from exercising any right, power or discretion vested in it
          under the Financing Documents until it has received instructions from
          the Majority Banks as to whether (and, if it is to be, the way in
          which) it is to be exercised and shall in all cases be fully protected
          when acting, or (if so instructed) refraining from acting, in
          accordance with instructions from the Majority Banks;

     (3)  treat the Lending Bank which makes available any share of an Advance
          as the person entitled to repayment of that share unless all or part
          of it has been transferred (or the Agent has received a notice of the
          assignment of all or part of it) in accordance with Clause 25(C); and
          may act on any such transfer or notice until it is superseded by a
          further transfer or notice;

     (4)  refrain from doing anything which would or might in its opinion be
          contrary to any law or any directive of any agency of any state or
          otherwise render it liable to any person and may do anything which is
          in its opinion necessary to comply with any such law or directive;

     (5)  assume that no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default has
          occurred unless an officer of the Agent, while active on the account
          of the Borrower or any Shareholder, acquires actual knowledge to the
          contrary; and

     (6)  refrain from taking any step (or further step) to protect or enforce
          the rights of any person under the Financing Documents until it has
          been indemnified (or received confirmation that it will be so
          indemnified) and/or secured to its satisfaction against any and all
          costs, losses, expenses or liabilities (including legal fees) which it
          would or might sustain or incur as a result.

(D)  Rights of the Agent and the Arranging Parties:  Each of the Agent and the
Arranging Parties may:-

     (1)  rely on any communication, certificate, legal opinion or other
          document believed by it to be genuine and assume that any person
          notified to it by the Borrower or any Shareholder as duly authorised
          to take any action contemplated by the Financing Documents remains so
          authorised until it has received notice to the contrary from the
          Borrower or such Shareholder (as the case may be);
<PAGE>   55
                                       52

     (2)  rely as to any matter of fact which might reasonably be expected to be
          within the knowledge of the Borrower or any Shareholder on a statement
          by or on behalf of the Borrower or such Shareholder (as the case may
          be);

     (3)  obtain and pay for such legal or other expert advice or services as
          may to it seem necessary or desirable and rely on any such advice;

     (4)  retain for its own benefit and without liability to account any fee or
          other sum receivable by it for its own account; and

     (5)  accept deposits from, lend money to, provide any advisory or other
          services to or engage in any kind of banking or other business with
          any party to the Financing Documents or any subsidiary or any
          associated company of any such party (and, in each case, may do so
          without liability to account).

(E)  Exoneration of Agent and the Arranging Parties: Neither the Agent nor the
Arranging Parties nor any of their respective personnel or agents shall be:-

     (1)  responsible for the adequacy, accuracy, completeness or reasonableness
          of any representation, warranty, statement, projection, assumption or
          information in the Financing Documents or any notice or other document
          delivered under or in connection with the Financing Documents;

     (2)  responsible for the execution, delivery, validity, legality, adequacy,
          enforceability or admissibility in evidence of the Financing Documents
          or any such notice or other document;

     (3)  obliged to enquire as to the occurrence or continuation of an Event of
          Default or Potential Event of Default; or

     (4)  liable for anything done or not done by it or any of them under or in
          connection with the Financing Documents save in the case of its or
          their own gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

The Arranging Parties shall not have any duty, obligation or responsibility
under or in connection with the Financing Documents.

For the purposes of this Clause, the Agent shall not be treated as having actual
knowledge of any matter of which any shareholder of the Agent or any of its
holding companies, subsidiaries or associated companies or the corporate finance
department or any other division outside the department, division or team
directly responsible for the management of the Commitments may become aware in
the context of lending, corporate finance or advisory activities from time to
time undertaken by the Agent for the Borrower.

(F)  Agent as Bank: The Agent shall have the same rights and powers with respect
to its Commitments (if any) and its Outstandings (if any) as any other Bank and
may exercise those rights and powers as if it were not also acting as Agent.

(G)  Non-Reliance on Agent and the Arranging Parties: Each Bank confirms that it
has itself been, and will at all times continue to be, solely responsible for
making its own independent investigation and appraisal of the business,
operations, financial condition, prospects, creditworthiness, status and affairs
of the Borrower, the Shareholders and their respective subsidiaries and has not
relied, and will not at any time rely, on the Agent, any Arranging Party and/or
any other Bank:-
<PAGE>   56
                                       53

     (1)  to provide it with any information relating to the business,
          operations, financial condition, prospects, creditworthiness, status
          or affairs of the Borrower or any other person, whether coming into
          its possession before or after the issue of the EDB Guarantee or the
          making of any Advance (except, in the case of the Agent, as stated in
          sub-Clause (B)); or

     (2)  to check or enquire into the adequacy, accuracy, completeness or
          reasonableness of any representation, warranty, statement, projection,
          assumption or information at any time provided by or on behalf of the
          Borrower, any Shareholder or any other person under or in connection
          with the Financing Documents (whether or not such information has been
          or is at any time circulated to it by the Agent and/or any Arranging
          Party); or

     (3)  to assess or keep under review the business, operations, financial
          condition, prospects, creditworthiness, status or affairs of the
          Borrower, any Shareholder or any other person.

(H)  Indemnity to Agent: To the extent that the Borrower does not do so on
demand or is not obliged to do so, each Bank shall on demand indemnify the Agent
in the proportion borne by the Singapore Dollar Equivalent of its Outstandings
to the Singapore Dollar Equivalent of all the Outstandings at the relevant time
(or, if there are then no Outstandings, in the proportion borne by the Singapore
Dollar Equivalent of its Commitment to the total Commitments) against any cost,
expense or liability mentioned in Clause 23 or sustained or incurred by the
Agent in complying with any instructions from the Majority Banks or otherwise
sustained or incurred by it in connection with the Financing Documents or its
duties, obligations and responsibilities under the Financing Documents except to
the extent that they are sustained or incurred as a result of the negligence or
wilful misconduct of the Agent or any of its personnel or agents.

(I)  Resignation of Agent: Notwithstanding the irrevocable appointments in
sub-Clause (A), the Agent may resign at any time (after consultation with the
Borrower) if it gives at least 30 days' notice to the Borrower and the Banks.
However, no resignation shall be effective until the successor has been
appointed and accepted its appointment in accordance with this sub-Clause (I).
The Majority Banks may appoint a successor to the resigning Agent but, if the
successor has not been so appointed and accepted its appointment within 15 days
after the date of the notice of resignation, the resigning Agent may appoint a
successor Agent, which must be a reputable and experienced bank or financial
institution with an office in Singapore. Any appointment of a successor must be
in writing, signed by the person(s) appointing that successor and delivered to
that successor. Any acceptance of such appointment must be in writing, signed by
the person appointed and delivered to the person(s) appointing that successor.
The other parties to this Agreement shall be promptly informed of the acceptance
by a successor Agent. Upon the successor accepting its appointment, the
resigning Agent shall be automatically discharged from any further obligation
under this Agreement and its successor and each of the other parties to this
Agreement shall have the same rights and obligations among themselves as they
would have had if the successor had been the original Agent party to this
Agreement. The resigning Agent shall provide its successor with (or with copies
of) such records as its successor requires to carry out its duties under this
Agreement. Any costs and expenses incurred by the Agent or its successor in
connection with any such resignation and appointment under this sub-Clause (I)
shall not be borne by the Borrower.

(J)  Transfer Notice: The Borrower, the Arranging Parties, the Security Trustee
and each Bank (except for the Lending Bank and the New Bank seeking the relevant
transfer in accordance with Clause 25(C)) irrevocably authorise the Agent to
sign each Transfer Notice on their behalf.

<PAGE>   57
                                       54

(A)  Appointment of Security Trustee: Each Bank acknowledges that the Security
Trustee will act as its trustee in connection with the Security Documents
pursuant to the Trust Deed.

(B)  Security Trustee's Rights: The Security Trustee may:-

     (1)  perform any of its duties, obligations and responsibilities under any
          of the Security Documents by or through its personnel or agents;

     (2)  refrain from exercising any right, power or discretion vested in it
          under any of the Security Documents until it has received instructions
          from the Majority Banks as to whether (and, if it is to be, the way in
          which) it is to be exercised and shall in all cases be fully protected
          when acting, or (if so instructed) refraining from acting, in
          accordance with instructions from the Majority Banks;

     (3)  refrain from doing anything which would or might in its opinion be
          contrary to any law or any directive of any agency of any state or
          otherwise render it liable to any person and may do anything which is
          in its opinion necessary to comply with any such law or directive;

     (4)  assume that no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default has
          occurred unless an officer of the Security Trustee, while active on
          the account of the Borrower or any Shareholder, acquires actual
          knowledge to the contrary;

     (5)  refrain from taking any step (or further step) to protect or enforce
          the rights of any person under any of the Security Documents until it
          has been indemnified (or received confirmation that it will be so
          indemnified) and/or secured to its satisfaction against any and all
          costs, losses, expenses or liabilities (including legal fees) which it
          would or might sustain or incur as a result;

     (6)  rely on any communication, certificate, legal opinion or other
          document believed by it to be genuine and assume that (a) any person
          notified to it by the Borrower as duly authorised to take any action
          contemplated by any of the Security Documents remains so authorised
          until it has received notice to the contrary from the Borrower and (b)
          any person notified to it by any Shareholder as duly authorised to
          take any action contemplated by any of the Security Documents remains
          so authorised until it has received notice to the contrary from such
          Shareholder;

     (7)  rely as to any matter of fact which might reasonably be expected to be
          within the knowledge of the Borrower or any Shareholder on a statement
          by or on behalf of the Borrower or such Shareholder (as the case may
          be);

     (8)  obtain and pay for such legal or other expert advice or services as
          may to it seem necessary or desirable and rely on any such advice;

     (9)  retain for its own benefit and without liability to account any fee or
          other sum receivable by it for its own account; and

     (10) accept deposits from, lend money to, provide any advisory or other
          services to or engage in any kind of banking or other business with
          any party to this Agreement or any of the Security Documents or any
          subsidiary or any associated company of any such party (and, in each
          case, may do so without liability to account).

                                       55

(D)  Exoneration of Security Trustee: Neither the Security Trustee nor any of
its personnel or agents shall be:-

     (1)  responsible for the adequacy, accuracy, completeness or reasonableness
          of any representation, warranty, statement, projection, assumption or
          information in any of the Financing Documents or any notice or other
          document delivered under or in connection with or any of the Financing
          Documents;

     (2)  responsible for the execution, delivery, validity, legality, adequacy,
          enforceability or admissibility in evidence (except the Security
          Trustee with respect to its own execution of any document or
          agreement) of any of the Financing Documents or any such notice or
          other document;

     (3)  obliged to enquire as to the occurrence or continuation of an Event of
          Default or Potential Event of Default; or

     (4)  liable for anything done or not done by it or any of them under or in
          connection with any of the Security Documents save in the case of its
          or their own negligence or wilful misconduct.

(E)  Security Trustee as Bank: The Security Trustee shall have the same rights
and powers with respect to its Commitment (if any) and its Outstandings (if any)
as any other Bank and may exercise those rights and powers as if it were not
also acting as Security Trustee.

(F)  Non-Reliance on Security Trustee: Each Bank confirms that it has itself
been, and will at all times continue to be, solely responsible for making its
own independent investigation and appraisal of the business, operations,
financial condition, prospects, creditworthiness, status and affairs of the
Borrower, any Shareholder and their respective subsidiaries and has not relied,
and will not at any time rely, on the Security Trustee:-

     (1)  to provide it with any information relating to the business,
          operations, financial condition, prospects, creditworthiness, status
          or affairs of the Borrower, any Shareholder or any other person,
          whether coming into its possession before or after the issue of the
          EDB Guarantee or the making of any Advance; or

     (2)  to check or enquire into the adequacy, accuracy, completeness or
          reasonableness of any representation, warranty, statement, projection,
          assumption or information at any time provided by or on behalf of the
          Borrower, any Shareholder or any other person under or in connection
          with any of the Financing Documents (whether or not such information
          has been or is at any time circulated to it by the Security Trustee);
          or

     (3)  to assess or keep under review the business, operations, financial
          condition, prospects, creditworthiness, status or affairs of the
          Borrower, any Shareholder or any other person.

(G)  Indemnity to Security Trustee: To the extent that the Borrower does not do
so on demand or is not obliged to do so, each Bank shall on demand indemnify the
Security Trustee in the proportion borne by the Singapore Dollar Equivalent of
its Outstandings to all the Singapore Dollar Equivalent of the Outstandings at
the relevant time (or, if there are no Outstandings, in the proportion borne by
the Singapore Dollar Equivalent of its Commitment to the Singapore Dollar
Equivalent of the total Commitments) against any cost, expense or liability
sustained or incurred by the Security Trustee
<PAGE>   59
                                       56

in complying with any instructions from the Majority Banks or otherwise
sustained or incurred by it in connection with any of the Security Documents or
its duties, obligations and responsibilities under any of the Security
Documents, except to the extent that they are sustained or incurred as a result
of the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Security Trustee or any of
its personnel or agents.

(H)  Retiring Security Trustee: If a successor to the Security Trustee is
appointed under the provisions of the Trust Deed, the retiring Security Trustee
shall remain entitled to the benefit of the provisions of this Clause.

22.  SET-OFF AND PRO RATA SHARING

(A)  Set-Off: The Borrower authorises any other party to this Agreement to apply
(without prior notice) any credit balance (whether or not then due) to which it
is at any time beneficially entitled on any account at, any sum held to its
order by and/or any liability of, any office of that party in or towards
satisfaction of any sum then due from it to that party under this Agreement and
unpaid and, for that purpose, to convert one currency into another (but so that
nothing in this sub-Clause (A) shall be effective to create a charge) Provided
Always That the relevant party shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after
effecting such application and/or conversion, give notice in writing thereof to
the Borrower. No party shall be obliged to exercise any of its rights under this
sub-Clause (A), which shall be without prejudice and in addition to any right of
set-off, combination of accounts, lien or other right to which it is at any time
otherwise entitled (whether by operation of law, contract or otherwise).

(B)  Pro Rata Sharing: If at any time the proportion received or recovered
(whether by direct payment, by exercise of any right of set-off, combination of
accounts or lien, or otherwise) by any Bank in respect of the total sum which
has become due to it from the Borrower under this Agreement before that time
exceeds the proportion received or recovered by the Bank(s) receiving or
recovering the smallest proportion (if any), then:-

     (1)  within two Business Days after receiving a request from the Agent,
          that Bank shall pay to the Agent an amount equal to the excess;

     (2)  the Agent shall distribute that payment to the other Banks as if it
          were paid by the Borrower; and

     (3)  as between the Borrower and the Banks, that excess amount shall be
          treated as having been paid to the Banks to which (and in the
          proportions in which) it is distributed under paragraph (2), rather
          than as having been paid to that Bank.

Within two Business Days after any Bank receives or recovers any such sum
otherwise than by payment through the Agent, that Bank shall notify the Agent of
the amount and currency so received or recovered, how it was received or
recovered and whether it represents principal, interest or other sums. If all or
part of any amount so received or recovered by that Bank has to be refunded by
it (with or without interest), each Bank to whom any part of that amount has
been distributed shall (within two Business Days after receiving a request from
that Bank) in turn pay to that Bank its proportionate share of the amount to be
refunded and of any interest required to be paid by that Bank on that amount in
respect of all or any part of the period from the date of the relevant
distribution to the date of that payment to that Bank.

Any amount received or recovered by a Bank under a novation, assignment,
sub-participation (or the like) shall be ignored for the purpose of this
sub-Clause (B). Furthermore, a Bank shall not be obliged to share any amount
which it has received or recovered as a result of taking legal proceedings with
any other Bank which had an opportunity to participate in those legal
proceedings but did not do so and did not take separate legal proceedings.
<PAGE>   60
                                       57

This sub-Clause (B) shall apply, with any necessary modifications, to any amount
set-off under sub-Clause (A) by any party to this Agreement in respect of any
sum due to any other party under this Agreement.

23.  EXPENSES AND STAMP DUTY

     Whether or not the EDB Guarantee is issued or any Advance is made under
this Agreement, the Borrower shall pay:-

     (1)  on demand, all costs and expenses (including legal fees and all goods
          and services, value added and other duties or taxes payable on such
          costs and expenses) reasonably incurred by the Agent, the Security
          Trustee, and/or the Lead Arrangers in connection with the preparation,
          negotiation or entry into of the Financing Documents and/or any
          amendment of, supplement to or waiver in respect of the Financing
          Documents;

     (2)  on demand, all costs and expenses (including legal fees on a full
          indemnity basis all goods and services, valued added and other duties
          or taxes payable on such costs and expenses) reasonably incurred by
          the Agent, the Lead Arrangers, the Security Trustee or any Bank in
          protecting or enforcing any rights under the Financing Documents
          and/or any such amendment, supplement or waiver; and

     (3)  promptly, and in any event before any interest or penalty becomes
          payable, any goods and services, value added, stamp, documentary,
          registration or similar duty or tax payable in connection with the
          entry into, enforcement or admissibility in evidence of the Financing
          Documents and/or any such amendment, supplement or waiver, and shall
          indemnify the Agent, the Lead Arrangers, the Security Trustee and the
          Banks against any liability with respect to or resulting from any
          delay in paying or omission to pay any such duty or tax.

24.  CALCULATIONS AND EVIDENCE

(A)  Basis of Calculation: All interest (including default interest) and
commitment fee shall accrue from day to day and shall be calculated on the basis
of a year of 365 days (in the case of an amount denominated in Singapore
Dollars) or 360 days (in the case of an amount denominated in United States
Dollars) and the actual number of days elapsed.

(B)  Loan Accounts: The entries made in the accounts maintained by each Bank in
accordance with its usual practice shall (in the absence of manifest error) be
prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the
Borrower recorded in them.

(C)  Certificate Conclusive: A certificate by the Agent, the Security Trustee,
any Lead Arranger or any Lending Bank as to any sum payable to it under this
Agreement, and any other certificate, determination, notification, opinion or
the like of the Agent, any Lead Arranger, the Security Trustee, any Bank or the
Majority Banks provided for in this Agreement, shall be conclusive save for
manifest error.

25.  BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT

(A)  Benefit and Burden of Agreement: This Agreement shall benefit and be
binding on the parties, any New Bank in respect of which a Transfer Notice
becomes effective in accordance with sub-Clause (C), their respective assignees
and their respective successors. Any reference in this Agreement to any party
shall be construed accordingly.
<PAGE>   61
                                       58

(B)  Borrower: The Borrower may not assign or transfer all or part of its rights
or obligations under this Agreement.

(C)  Banks: (1) Any Bank may at any time transfer all or part of its
Outstandings or all or part of its Commitment to any person without the consent
of any party (but such Bank shall give to the Borrower prior notice of such
transfer) Provided That in the case of a transfer by a Guarantor Bank of all of
part of its Guarantee Commitment or, as the case may be, Tranche B Term
Commitment, the proposed transferee shall be approved by EDB as a Guarantor Bank
prior to the proposed transfer. Any such transfer shall be made by delivering to
the Agent a duly completed and executed Transfer Notice. On receipt of such a
notice, the Agent shall countersign it for and on behalf of itself and the other
parties to this Agreement and, subject to the terms of that Transfer Notice:-

     (a)  to the extent that in that Transfer Notice the relevant Bank seeks to
          novate its Outstandings and/or its Tranche A Term Commitment or, as
          the case may be, its Tranche B Term Commitment, the Borrower and that
          Bank shall each be released from further obligations to each other and
          their respective rights against each other shall be cancelled (such
          rights and obligations being referred to as "discharged rights and
          obligations");

     (b)  the Borrower and the relevant New Bank shall each assume new
          obligations towards each other and/or acquire new rights against each
          other which differ from the discharged rights and obligations only
          insofar as the Borrower and that New Bank have assumed and acquired
          the same in place of the Borrower and that Bank; and

     (c)  the New Bank and the other parties to this Agreement (other than the
          Borrower) shall acquire the same rights and assume the same
          obligations between themselves as they would have acquired and assumed
          had that New Bank been an original party to this Agreement as a Bank
          with the rights and/or obligations acquired or assumed by it as a
          result of that novation (and, to that extent, the original Bank and
          those other parties shall each be released from further obligations to
          each other).

     (2) On the date on which a transfer takes effect pursuant to paragraph (1),
the New Bank in respect of such transfer shall pay to the Agent for its own
account a transfer fee of S$500. If any New Bank fails to pay any transfer fee
payable by it under this paragraph (2) on its due date, the Agent may at any
time deduct an amount equal to such fee from any moneys from time to time held
by the Agent for account of such New Bank.

     (3) Any Bank may at any time assign all or part of its Outstandings to any
person without the consent of any party (but such Bank shall give to the
Borrower prior notice of such assignment).

     (4) The Borrower shall not be liable for any costs or expenses which may be
incurred in connection with any assignment or transfer of the Outstandings or
the Commitments.

(D)  Disclosure of Information: The Agent, any Arranging Party, the Security
Trustee or any of the Banks may disclose on a confidential basis to any other
party to the Financing Documents or any of its other branches or its
headquarters or to an actual or potential New Bank, assignee, sub-participant or
the like such information about the Borrower or any other person or details of
this Agreement as it may think fit and may disclose to any other person such
information about the Borrower with the prior consent in writing of the Borrower
(Provided that, at any time and from time to time after the making of a
declaration under Clause 17(B), (1) no such consent will be required for any
such disclosure and (2) the Agent, the relevant Arranging Party, the Security
Trustee or the relevant Bank making any such disclosure shall, if practicable,
consult with the Borrower prior to making any
<PAGE>   62
                                       59

such disclosure and shall consider in good faith any request from the Borrower
to the Agent, such Arranging Party, the Security Trustee or such Bank not to
make any such disclosure or to delay making any such disclosure).

(E)  Limitation on Certain Obligations of Borrower: If, at the time of any
assignment or transfer by a Bank or any change in the lending office by a Bank,
circumstances exist which would oblige the Borrower to pay to the New Bank under
Clause 11(B) or 12(B) any sum in excess of the sum (if any) which it would have
been obliged to pay to that Bank under the relevant Clause in the absence of
that assignment or transfer or, as the case may be, change in such lending
office, the Borrower shall not be obliged to pay that excess.

26.  REMEDIES, WAIVERS, AMENDMENTS AND CONSENTS

(A)  No Implied Waivers: No failure on the part of the Agent, any Lead Arranger,
the Security Trustee or any Bank to exercise, and no delay on its part in
exercising, any right or remedy under this Agreement will operate as a waiver
thereof, nor will any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy preclude
any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or
remedy. The rights and remedies provided in this Agreement are cumulative and
not exclusive of any other rights or remedies (whether provided by law or
otherwise).

(B)  Amendments, Waivers and Consents: Any provision of this Agreement may be
amended or supplemented only if the Borrower and the Majority Banks so agree in
writing and any Event of Default, Potential Event of Default, provision or
breach of any provision of this Agreement may be waived before or after it
occurs only if the Majority Banks so agree in writing but:-

     (1)  an amendment, supplement or waiver which puts one or more Banks in a
          better or worse position than one or more other Banks or changes or
          relates to (a) the amount of the Available Tranche A Facility or the
          amount of the Available Tranche B Facility or any Bank's Commitment or
          Available Tranche A Commitment or Available Tranche B Commitment, (b)
          the Commitment Termination Date, (c) the amount or currency of the
          Advances, (d) the amount or date of any repayment instalment, (e) the
          length of Interest Periods, (f) the rate or dates of payment of
          interest, (g) the amount or date(s) of payment of any fee payable
          under Clause 10, (h) the currency of any payment, (i) the discharge or
          release of any of the Security Documents, (j) the definition of
          "Majority Banks", (k) this sub-Clause (B) or (l) any Clause which by
          its terms requires the consent of all the Banks, shall require the
          agreement of all the Banks and (in the case of an amendment or
          supplement) the Borrower also; and

     (2)  an amendment, supplement or waiver which changes or relates to the
          rights and/or obligations of the Agent, the Security Trustee or any
          Lead Arranger shall require its agreement also.

Any consent by the Agent, any Lead Arranger, the Security Trustee, any Bank or
the Majority Banks under any provision of this Agreement must also be in
writing. Any such waiver or consent may be given subject to any conditions
thought fit by the person giving it and shall be effective only in the instance
and for the purpose for which it is given.

27.  COMMUNICATIONS

(A)  Addresses: Each communication under this Agreement shall be made by fax,
telex or otherwise in writing. Each communication or document to be delivered to
any party under this Agreement shall be sent to that party at the fax number,
telex number or address, and marked for the attention of the person (if any),
from time to time designated by that party to the Agent (or, in the case
<PAGE>   63
                                       60

of the Agent, by it to each other party) for the purpose of this Agreement. The
initial fax number, telex number, address and person (if any) so designated by
each party are set out under its name at the end of this Agreement. Any
communication or document from or to the Borrower under this Agreement shall be
sent to, by or through the Agent.

(B)  Deemed Delivery: Any communication from the Borrower shall be irrevocable,
and shall not be effective until received by the Agent. Any other communication
from one party to another party shall be deemed to be received by such other
party (if sent by fax or telex) on the day of despatch or (in any other case)
when left at the address required by sub-Clause (A) or within two days after
being sent by prepaid post addressed to it at that address.

28.  PARTIAL INVALIDITY

     The illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this
Agreement under the law of any jurisdiction shall not affect its legality,
validity or enforceability under the law of any other jurisdiction nor the
legality, validity or enforceability of any other provision.

29.  NATURE OF RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS

(A)  Liability Several: The liability of the Banks is several. No party to this
Agreement shall be responsible for the obligations of any other party. The
failure of a Bank to perform its obligations shall not release any other party
from its obligations.

(B)  Rights Several: The rights of the Banks are also several. The amount at any
time owing by the Borrower to any party under this Agreement shall be a separate
and independent debt from the amount owing to any other party. Each party shall
have the right to protect and enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement
and it shall not be necessary for any Arranging Party, the Agent, the Security
Trustee or any Bank to be joined as an additional party in any proceedings for
this purpose.

30.  GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION

(A)  Governing Law: This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of Singapore.

basis (other than in respect of the Security Trustee's acts or omissions
constituting negligence or wilful default), to the Borrower or as it may direct
the Charged Property from the security hereby created.

4.   CONTINUING SECURITY

(A)  Continuing Obligations: The security created by this Charge shall
constitute and be a continuing security for the payment and discharge of the
Secured Debt notwithstanding any intermediate payment or settlement of account

other matter or thing whatsoever, and shall be in addition to and shall not be

Parties may now or at any time hereafter have, or judgment or order obtained by
the Security Trustee or any of the Phase 2 Secured Parties, for or in respect of
all or any part of the Secured Debt nor shall any of the other Financing
Documents or any such collateral or other agreement, security, guarantee,
indemnity, right, remedy or lien or judgment or order be in any way prejudiced
or affected by this Charge.

(B)  Unconditionality of Security: The security created by this Charge shall not
be discharged or affected by (1) any time, indulgence, concession, waiver or
consent at any time given to the Borrower or any other person, (2) any amendment
or supplement to or change in the terms of the Secured Debt, any of the other
Financing Documents or any other agreement, security, guarantee, indemnity,
right, remedy or lien, (3) the making or absence of any demand on the Borrower
or any other person for payment, (4) the enforcement or absence of enforcement
of any of the other Financing Documents or any other agreement, security,
guarantee, indemnity, right, remedy or lien, (5) the taking, existence or
release of any of the other Financing Documents or any other agreement,

obligations of any of the parties thereunder or (8) any other matter or thing
which but for the provisions of this sub-Clause (B) would operate to impair or
discharge the security created by this Charge.

(C)  Continuation/Opening of Accounts: In the event of the commencement of the
winding-up of the Borrower or of this Charge ceasing for any reason to be
binding on the Borrower or if the Security Trustee or any of the Phase 2 Secured
Parties shall at any time receives notice (either actual or otherwise) of any
subsequent or other mortgage, charge, assignment, hypothecation, pledge, lien or
other like interest, matter, event or transaction affecting the Charged Property
or any part of it, the Security Trustee and each of the Phase 2 Secured Parties
may open a new account or accounts for the Borrower in its books. If the
Security Trustee or any of the Phase 2 Secured Parties does not in fact open
such new account then, unless it gives express notice in writing to the Borrower
to the contrary, the Security Trustee and/or such Secured Party shall be treated
as if it had in fact opened such account or accounts at the time when it
received or is deemed to have received such notice. As from that time and unless
such express notice in writing shall be given to the Borrower by the Security
Trustee and/or each of the Phase 2 Secured Parties, all payments by or on behalf
of the Borrower to the Security Trustee or any of the Phase 2 Secured Parties
shall be credited, or treated as having been credited, to a new account of the
Borrower and not as having been applied in reduction of the Secured Debt at the
time when such notice was received or deemed to have been

<PAGE>   80
                                       77

received. For the avoidance of doubt, if a payment which would (but for this
sub-Clause (C)) have been applied in reduction of the Secured Debt in accordance
with the provisions of the Financing Documents is instead credited to a new
account of the Borrower under this sub-Clause (C), then solely for the purpose
of calculating interest accruing on the Secured Debt, the Secured Debt shall be
deemed to have been reduced by the amount of that payment in accordance with
such application of that payment.

(D)  Suspense Account: Any amount received or recovered by the Security Trustee
or any of the Phase 2 Secured Parties in respect of any amount received or
recovered pursuant to this Charge and/or any of the powers hereby conferred may
be placed by the Security Trustee or such Secured Party in a suspense account
(which shall be interest-bearing, where practicable) with a view to preserving
the rights of such party to prove for the whole of the Secured Debt. That amount
may be kept there (with any interest accrued being credited to that account)
unless and until the Borrower is not obliged to pay any further sum under the
Credit Agreement and the Security Trustee or such Secured Party has irrevocably
received or recovered its share of the Secured Debt.

5.   REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

     The Borrower represents and warrants to and for the benefit of the Security
Trustee and each of the Phase 2 Secured Parties as follows:-

          which the EDB Guarantee is issued and each Interest Payment Date as if
          repeated then by reference to the then existing circumstances.

charges, and agrees to charge in favour of the Security Trustee (as security

title and interest in and to all moneys from time to time standing to the credit
of the Project Account, whether in addition to or by way of renewal, extension
or replacement of any moneys previously deposited in or credited to the Project
Account (it being understood that such moneys may from time to time be
represented by new account numbers) or otherwise, together with any interest
from time to time accruing in respect of such moneys Provided Always that if at

and request of the Borrower, discharge or otherwise reassign, on a without
recourse or warranty basis (other than in respect of the Security Trustee's acts
or omissions constituting negligence or wilful default), to the Borrower or as
it may direct the Charged Property from the security hereby created.

4.   CONTINUING SECURITY

(A)  Continuing Obligations: The security created by this Charge shall
constitute and be a continuing security for the payment and discharge of the
Secured Debt notwithstanding any intermediate payment or settlement of account
or reduction or repayment of the Secured Debt for the time being owing or any
other matter or thing whatsoever, and shall be in addition to and shall not be
in any way prejudiced or affected by any of the other Financing Documents or any
collateral or other agreement, security, guarantee, indemnity, right, remedy or
lien of whatever nature which the Security Trustee or any of the Secured Parties
may now or at any time hereafter have, or judgment or order obtained by the
Security Trustee or any of the Secured Parties, for or in respect of all or any
part of the Secured Debt nor shall any of the other Financing Documents or any
such collateral or other agreement, security, guarantee, indemnity, right,
remedy or lien or judgment or order be in any way prejudiced or affected by this
Charge.

(B)  Unconditionality of Security: The security created by this Charge shall not
be discharged or affected by (1) any time, indulgence, concession, waiver or
consent at any time given to the Borrower or any other person, (2) any amendment
or supplement to or change in the terms of the Secured Debt, any of the other
Financing Documents or any other agreement, security, guarantee, indemnity,
right, remedy or lien, (3) the making or absence of any demand on the Borrower
or any other person for payment, (4) the enforcement or absence of enforcement
of any of the other Financing Documents or any other agreement, security,
guarantee, indemnity, right, remedy or lien, (5) the taking, existence or
release of any of the other Financing Documents or any other agreement,
security, guarantee, indemnity, right, remedy or lien, (6) the bankruptcy or
winding-up of the Borrower or any other person (or the commencement of any of
the foregoing), (7) the illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of or any
defect in any provision of any of the other Financing Documents or any other
agreement, security, guarantee, indemnity, right, remedy or lien or any of the
obligations of any of the parties thereunder or (8) any other matter or thing

<PAGE>   94
                                       91

(C)  Continuation/Opening of Accounts: In the event of the commencement of the
winding-up of the Borrower or of this Charge ceasing for any reason to be
binding on the Borrower or if the Security Trustee or any of the Secured Parties
shall at any time receives notice (either actual or otherwise) of any subsequent
or other mortgage, charge, assignment, hypothecation, pledge, lien or other like
interest, matter, event or transaction affecting the Charged Property or any
part of it, the Security Trustee and each of the Secured Parties may open a new
account or accounts for the Borrower in its books. If the Security Trustee or
any of the Secured Parties does not in fact open such new account then, unless
it gives express notice in writing to the Borrower to the contrary, the Security
Trustee and/or such Secured Party shall be treated as if it had in fact opened
such account or accounts at the time when it received or is deemed to have
received such notice. As from that time and unless such express notice in
writing shall be given to the Borrower by the Security Trustee and/or each of
the Secured Parties, all payments by or on behalf of the Borrower to the
Security Trustee or any of the Secured Parties shall be credited, or treated as
having been credited, to a new account of the Borrower and not as having been
applied in reduction of the Secured Debt at the time when such notice was
received or deemed to have been received. For the avoidance of doubt, if a
payment which would (but for this sub-Clause (C)) have been applied in reduction
of the Secured Debt in accordance with the provisions of the Financing Documents
is instead credited to a new account of the Borrower under this sub-Clause (C),
then solely for the purpose of calculating interest accruing on the Secured
Debt, the Secured Debt shall be deemed to have been reduced by the amount of
that payment in accordance with such application of that payment.

(D)  Suspense Account: Any amount received or recovered by the Security Trustee
or any of the Secured Parties in respect of any amount received or recovered
pursuant to this Charge and/or any of the powers hereby conferred may be placed
by the Security Trustee or such Secured Party in a suspense account (which shall
be interest-bearing, where practicable) with a view to preserving the rights of
such party to prove for the whole of the Secured Debt. That amount may be kept
there (with any interest accrued being credited to that account) unless and
until the Borrower is not obliged to pay any further sum under the Credit
Agreement and the Security Trustee or such Secured Party has irrevocably
received or recovered its share of the Secured Debt.

5.   CRYSTALLISATION OF FLOATING CHARGE

     After the occurrence of an Acceleration Event, the Security Trustee shall
be entitled at any time by notice in writing to the Borrower to convert the
floating charge created by Clause 3 into a fixed charge affecting all property
and assets which for the time being are the subject of such floating charge or,
as the case may be, such of the said property and assets as are specified by
such notice and, in such an event, the Borrower covenants with the Security
Trustee, upon demand, to execute, at the Borrower's own cost, as a continuing
security for the payment or discharge of the Secured Debt, a first fixed charge
on substantially the same terms herein contained of all or any part of the
Charged Property (or such part thereof as is specified in such notice) which is
for the time being subject to such floating charge.

6.   REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

     The Borrower represents and warrants to and for the benefit of the Security
Trustee and each of the Secured Parties as follows:-

     (1)  Ownership: it is and will at all times be the sole and beneficial
          owner of the Charged Property;

     (3)  Repetition: each of the above representations and warranties will be
          correct and complied with on the date of each request for an Advance,
          on the date on which each Advance (as defined in the Phase 2 Credit
          Agreement) is to be made, the date of the request for the issue of the
          EDB Guarantee (as defined in the Phase 2 Credit Agreement), the date
          on which the EDB Guarantee is issued and each Interest Payment Date
          (as defined in the Phase 2 Credit Agreement) as if repeated then by
          reference to the then existing circumstances.

Secured Parties that:-

          (or agree, conditionally or unconditionally, to create) or have
          outstanding any security on or over any part of the Charged Property
          or any interest in the Charged Property, except for the security
          created by this Charge;

     (3)  Impairment of Security: it will not take or omit to take any action
          the taking or omission of which will result in any impairment of this

          void, voidable, unenforceable or ineffective for any reason
          whatsoever, whether or not known to yourselves, the amount of such
          loss being the amount which you would otherwise have been entitled to
          recover from ourselves.

3.   The liability of each of us in respect of any sum at any time due to you
hereunder is several and shall be limited to the fraction of such sum which
appears opposite our respective names in Schedule 1 hereto.

interest accruing in respect of the Relevant Drawings under Clause 7.2 of the
EDB Loan Agreement shall not exceed the lesser of six months interest and the
Maximum Interest Liability at that time, the total amount at any time payable by
us hereunder in respect of default interest accruing in respect of the Relevant

     the amount specified against that Relevant Period in column (2) of
     Schedule 2 hereto;

     "Maximum Interest Liability" means, at any time during a Relevant Period,
     the amount specified against that Relevant Period in column (3) of

     Period, the amount specified against that Relevant Period in column (4) of

     the amount specified against that Relevant Period in column (5) of

<PAGE>   105
                                      102

     Agreement thereafter; and

behalf and have obtained all necessary governmental and other consents required
to enable us each to perform our obligations hereunder and that this Guarantee
is legal, valid and binding on each of us.

7.   This Guarantee shall be a continuing security and accordingly (1) shall
extend to cover the balance of principal due at any time from the Borrower to
you and (2) shall not be discharged by any intermediate payment or settlement of
account between the Borrower and yourselves.

8.   (1) If any sum due and payable by any of us hereunder or under any order or
judgment given or made in relation hereto has to be converted from the currency
(the "First Currency") in which the same is payable hereunder or under such
order or judgment into another currency (the "Second Currency") for the purpose
of (a) making or filing a claim or proof against us whether in our liquidation
or otherwise, (b) obtaining an order or judgment in any court or other tribunal
or (c) enforcing any order or judgment given or made in relation hereto, that
such of us that is so obliged to pay such sum shall indemnify and hold harmless
each of the persons to whom such sum is due and payable from and against any
loss suffered as a result of any discrepancy between (i) the rate of exchange
used for such purpose to convert the sum in question from the First Currency
into the Second Currency and (ii) the rate or rates of exchange at which such
person may in the ordinary course of business purchase the First Currency with
the Second Currency upon receipt by it of a sum paid to it in satisfaction, in
whole or in part, of any such order, judgment, claim or proof.

     (2) The foregoing indemnity shall constitute a separate obligation distinct
from our other respective obligations hereunder and shall survive the giving or

obligations.

9.   Each time you make an advance in relation to the Relevant Drawings to the
Borrower pursuant to the provisions of the EDB Loan Agreement or receive a
repayment or prepayment of principal thereunder, upon request by the Borrower,
you shall notify us in writing of the principal amount and date of such advance
or, as the case may be, repayment or prepayment, and of the then revised
outstanding balance of principal. We hereby agree that a certificate from
yourselves as to the amount due from the Borrower by way of principal or
interest under the EDB Loan Agreement at the date of such certificate shall, in
the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on us for all purposes
and we further agree to cause the Agent to promptly notify you of the occurrence
of any Event of Default under the Credit Agreement whereby the Advances made
thereunder are declared immediately due and payable.

10.  Any demand to be made on us hereunder shall be made by telex or letter to
our agent, [     ] (the "Agent"), at [     ], Telex Number [     ] and shall
specify whether such demand is made in respect of principal or interest (in each
case, in relation to the Relevant Drawings) and, if both, the respective amounts
of such claim and, where such demand is made in respect of interest, the period
in respect of which such claim is made. Such demand shall also specify, if
relevant, the provision of Clause 16.2 pursuant to which indebtedness under the
EDB Loan Agreement was accelerated. You shall be entitled to make any number of
demands on us hereunder.

11.  This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect until the earlier of
(1) the date on which you certify that there is no amount owing, due or payable
by the Borrower to yourselves by way of principal in respect of the Relevant
Drawings under the EDB Loan Agreement and no amounts of

interest accrued but unpaid in respect of the Relevant Drawings, a copy of which
certification shall be sent to the Agent, and (2) 30th September, 2006 or, if
such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day.

12.  This Guarantee may be executed by each party hereto on separate
counterparts, each of which shall be binding on such party and all of which
shall constitute one and the same document.

13.  This Guarantee shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the
laws of Singapore.

Borrower, CSM or ATE or any other person preventing the Borrower from achieving
the Threshold Production Date by the Scheduled Completion Date, (2) any
winding-up of the Borrower, (3) any Event of Default or action taken by the

(D)  Subscription Procedures: (1) The Borrower and each Shareholder shall do all
such things as may be necessary on their part for the provision of Shareholder
Funding required pursuant to this Agreement.

     (2) If for any reason whatsoever (including, without limitation, the
winding-up of the Borrower or failure of the Borrower to issue shares or to
accept payment), a Shareholder does not or cannot provide Shareholder Funding,
that Shareholder will nevertheless, at such times as are specified in this
Clause, pay to the Borrower the amount it would otherwise have been obliged to
pay by way of Shareholder Funding, which shall be deemed to discharge its
obligation to provide that Shareholder Funding.

     (3) If a Shareholder makes a payment under paragraph (2), the Borrower will
be liable (on the same terms and conditions) to that Shareholder for the amount
of the payment as if it had constituted Shareholder Funding by way of
subscription moneys for shares or subordinated loans (as appropriate).

(E)  Subordinated Loans: If the Shareholders' obligations under this Clause are
fulfilled by means of loans to the Borrower (whether from any of or all the
Shareholders or from some other party), each of the Borrower and the
Shareholders agrees that such loans shall:-

     (1)  be unsecured;

     (2)  not be subject to any payment of interest until after the Discharge
          Date (although interest may accrue on it prior to the Discharge Date);
          and

     (3)  be subordinated to the Senior Indebtedness in the manner set out in
          this Agreement.

3.   DECLARATION OF TRUST

     The Shareholders each acknowledges that the Security Trustee holds the
benefit of this Agreement as agent and trustee for the Secured Parties.

4.   SUBORDINATION

(A)  Subordination: The Shareholders and the Borrower hereby agree with and
undertake to the Security Trustee and each of the Secured Parties that,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any agreement or other
document constituting or evidencing the Subordinated Indebtedness, before the
Discharge Date the Subordinated Indebtedness and the rights and claims of the
Shareholders in relation to the Subordinated Indebtedness are subordinated to
the Senior Indebtedness and the respective rights and claims of the Secured
Parties in relation to the Senior
<PAGE>   118
                                      115

Indebtedness and accordingly, subject as provided in this Agreement, payments of
any amount of the Subordinated Indebtedness (whether in the event of the
winding-up of the Borrower or otherwise) are conditional upon all of the Senior
Indebtedness having first been fully satisfied and discharged and no payment of
any amount of the Subordinated Indebtedness which, but for this Agreement, would
otherwise fall due for payment will fall so due, and instead such payment will
fall due only if and when the Senior Indebtedness has been fully satisfied and
discharged and, if the Subordinated Indebtedness or any part thereof is paid by
or on behalf of the Borrower to any Shareholder, that payment shall be forthwith
paid over by that Shareholder to the Security Trustee.

(B)  Turnover: Without prejudice to the provisions of sub-Clause (A) above, if
any amount of Subordinated Indebtedness is discharged or purported to be
discharged by payment, repayment, prepayment, set-off or in any other manner in
contravention of sub-Clause (A) above or Clause 5 (and, for the avoidance of
doubt, any payment of consideration, discount or benefit given or credit terms
granted under any of the Excluded Transactions shall be deemed not to be a
discharge or purported discharge of any part of the Subordinated Indebtedness),
the relevant Shareholder shall:-

     (1)  (if the Shareholder actually receives the amount discharged or
          purported to be discharged) immediately pay it to the Security Trustee
          for application towards the Senior Indebtedness; and

     (2)  (if the Shareholder does not, as a result of discharge by set-off or
          otherwise, actually receive the amount discharged or purported to be
          discharged) pay to the Security Trustee an amount equal to that
          discharged or purported to be discharged.

(C)  Application: Any amount received by the Security Trustee from any of the
Shareholders, or any person on its behalf, under sub-Clause (A) or (B) above
shall be applied in the following manner and order:-

     (1)  first, in or towards payment of any costs, charges and expenses
          incurred by the Security Trustee then due and payable under this
          Agreement and the other Financing Documents;

     (2)  secondly, in or towards payment of the Senior Indebtedness (and in the
          event that such sums are insufficient to satisfy in full the Senior
          Indebtedness, such sums shall be paid to the Secured Parties in
          proportion to their respective shares of the Senior Indebtedness at
          the time of payment); and

     (3)  thirdly, in payment of any surplus to that Shareholder or any other
          person lawfully entitled thereto.

5.   AGREEMENT BY BORROWER AND SHAREHOLDERS

(A)  By Borrower: The Borrower agrees and undertakes that prior to the Discharge
Date, it shall not, without the prior consent in writing of the Security Trustee
and the Secured Parties:-

     (1)  make any loans or advances, whether directly or indirectly, to any of

or on account of any tax and (3) without deduction or withholding (except to the
extent required by law) on account of any other amount, whether by way of
set-off or otherwise.

     (2) If any of the Shareholders or any other person (whether or not a party
to, or on behalf of a party to, this Agreement) must at any time deduct or
withhold any tax or other amount from any sum paid or payable by, or received or
receivable from, that Shareholder under this Agreement, that Shareholder shall
pay such additional amount as is necessary to ensure that the Security Trustee
or,
<PAGE>   124
                                      121

as the case may be, the Secured Party to which that sum is due, receives on the
due date and retains (free from any liability other than tax on its own overall
net income) a net sum equal to what it would have received and so retained had
no such deduction or withholding been required or made.

     (3) If any of the Shareholders or any other person (whether or not a party
to, or on behalf of a party to, this Agreement) must at any time pay any tax or
other amount on, or calculated by reference to, any sum received or receivable
by the Security Trustee or, as the case may be, any of the Secured Parties from
that Shareholder under this Agreement (except for a payment by the Security
Trustee or a Secured Party of tax on its own overall net income), that
Shareholder shall pay or procure the payment of that tax or other amount before
any interest or penalty becomes payable or, if that tax or other amount is
payable and paid by the Security Trustee or any Secured Party, shall reimburse
it on demand for the amount paid by it.

     (4) Within 30 days after paying any sum from which it is required by law to
make any deduction or withholding, and within 30 days after the due date of
payment of any tax or other amount which it is required by paragraph (3) above

reasonably satisfactory to the Security Trustee or, as the case may be, the
relevant Secured Party of that deduction, withholding or payment and (where
remittance is required) of the remittance thereof to the relevant taxing or
other authority.

     (5) As soon as any of the Shareholders is aware that any such deduction,
withholding or payment is required (or any change in any such requirement), that
Shareholder shall notify the Security Trustee.

(B)  Goods and Services Tax: Each of the Shareholders shall also pay to the
Security Trustee and each Secured Party on demand, in addition to any amount
payable by that Shareholder under this Agreement, any goods and services, value
added or other similar tax payable in respect of that amount (and any reference
in this Agreement to that amount shall be deemed to include any such taxes
payable in addition to it).

(C)  Refund of Tax Credits: If:-

     (1)  any Shareholder makes a payment under sub-Clause (A)(2) or (3) (a "Tax
          Payment") in respect of a payment to the Security Trustee or any
          Secured Party under this Agreement; and

     (2)  that bank determines in its absolute discretion that it has obtained a
          refund of tax or obtained and used a credit against tax on its overall
          net income (a "Tax Credit") which the Security Trustee or that Secured
          Party in its absolute discretion is able to identify as attributable
          to that Tax Payment,

then, if in its absolute discretion it can do so without any adverse
consequences for the Security Trustee or, as the case may be, that Secured
Party, the Security Trustee or, as the case may be, that Secured Party shall
reimburse that Shareholder such amount as the Security Trustee or, as the case
may be, that Secured Party in its absolute discretion determines to be such
proportion of that Tax Credit as will leave the Security Trustee or, as the case
may be, that Secured Party (after that reimbursement) in no better or worse
position in respect of its worldwide tax liabilities than it would have been in
if no Tax Payment had been required. The Security Trustee or any Secured Party
shall have an absolute discretion as to whether to claim any Tax Credit (and, if
it does claim, the extent, order and manner in which it does so) and whether any
amount is due from it under this sub-Clause (C) (and, if so, what amount and
when). Neither the Security Trustee nor any Secured Party shall be obliged to
disclose any information regarding its tax affairs and computations.

(D)  Currency Indemnity: (1) Any amount received or recovered by the Security
Trustee or any Secured Party in respect of any sum expressed to be due to it
from any Shareholder under or in
<PAGE>   125
                                      122

connection with this Agreement in a currency (such currency being referred to as
the "Relevant Currency") other than the currency in which such sum is expressed
to be due under this Agreement (such currency being referred to as the "Currency
of Account") whether as a result of, or of the enforcement of, a judgment or
order of a court or tribunal of any jurisdiction, in the winding-up of that
Shareholder or otherwise, shall only constitute a discharge to that Shareholder
to the extent of the amount in the Currency of Account which the recipient is
able, in accordance with its usual practice, to purchase with the amount of the
Relevant Currency so received or recovered on the date of that receipt or
recovery (or, if it is not practicable to make that purchase on that date, on
the first date on which it is practicable to do so).

     (2) If that amount in the Currency of Account is less than the amount of
the Currency of Account due to the recipient under or in connection with this
Agreement, that Shareholder shall indemnify it against any loss sustained by it
as a result. In any event, that Shareholder shall indemnify the recipient
against the cost of making any such purchase. For the purpose of this sub-Clause
(D), it will be sufficient for the recipient to demonstrate that it would have
suffered a loss had an actual exchange or purchase been made.

     (3) Each of the indemnities in this sub-Clause (D) constitutes a separate
and independent obligation from the other obligations in this Agreement, shall
give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall apply
irrespective of any indulgence granted by the Security Trustee, any Arranger
and/or any Secured Party and shall continue in full force and effect despite
any judgment, order, claim or proof for a liquidated amount in respect of any
sum due under this Agreement or any other judgment or order.

          not being in the interests of the Borrower or any other person, not
          having been duly authorised, executed or delivered by the Borrower or
          any other person or for any reason whatsoever; or

     (8)  any other act, event or omission which but for this provision would or
          might operate to impair or discharge the obligations of any
          Shareholder under this Agreement.

(B)  Continuing Obligations: The obligations of the Shareholders and the
Borrower under this Agreement are continuing obligations, will not be
discharged by any intermediate payment and will remain in full force and effect
until the obligations have been fulfilled (for the avoidance of doubt, nothing
in this sub-Clause (B) shall affect any obligations of the Borrower or any
Shareholder which has been discharged by the due and proper performance by the
Borrower or such Shareholder of such obligations).

(C)  Reinstatement: (1) Any settlement or discharge between the Security Trustee
or any of the Secured Parties and any of the Shareholders shall be conditional
upon no security or payment to the Security Trustee or such Secured Party by the
Borrower or any other person being avoided or reduced by virtue of any provision
or enactment relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or winding-up for the time being
in force or by virtue of any obligation to give effect to any preference or
priority and the Security Trustee or such Secured Party (as the case may be)
shall be entitled to recover the value or amount of any such security or payment
from that Shareholder subsequently as if such settlement or discharge had not
occurred.

     (2) Without prejudice to the provisions of paragraph (1) above, where any
discharge (whether in respect of the obligations of any Shareholder or any
security for those obligations or otherwise) is made in whole or in part or any
arrangement is made on the faith of any payment, security or other disposition
which is avoided or must be repaid on bankruptcy, insolvency or winding-up or
otherwise without limitation, the liability of the Shareholders under this
Agreement shall, unless the Security Trustee and the Secured Parties agree
otherwise, continue as if the discharge or arrangement, as the case may be, had
not occurred.

(D)  Failure by Shareholder: The failure of a Shareholder or the Borrower to
perform or comply with any of its obligations under this Agreement shall not
release any other Shareholder or the Borrower of its obligations under this
Agreement.

(E)  Immediate Recourse: Each Shareholder waives any right which it may have of
first requesting the Security Trustee or any of the Secured Parties to proceed
against or enforce any other rights or security or claim payment from the
Borrower, any other Shareholder or any other person before claiming from the
Shareholder under this Agreement.

(F)  Additional Security: This Agreement shall be in addition to and shall not
in any way be prejudiced by any other security now or hereafter held by the
Security Trustee or any Secured Party as security for the obligations of the
Borrower under the Credit Agreement.

10.  EXPENSES

expenses (including legal expenses on a full indemnity basis) reasonably

(A) Shareholders/Borrower: The Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its
rights, benefits or obligations under this Agreement. None of the Shareholders

under this Agreement other than in the following manner and upon the following

     (1)  in the case of EDBI, it may transfer all of its rights, benefits and

          writing to the other parties to this Agreement to assume all the
          obligations of EDBI under this Agreement and (b) EDBI and the
          transferee shall have undertaken to the other parties to this
          Agreement to ensure that, in the event that the transferee ceases to
          be a wholly-owned subsidiary of EDBI, the transferee shall transfer
          all its rights, benefits and obligations under this Agreement to EDBI
          or a wholly-owned subsidiary of EDBI; and

     (2)  in the case of ATE, it may transfer all of its rights, benefits and
          obligations under this Agreement to an ATI Entity (provided that, at
          the time of such transfer, ATI owns at least 95 per cent. of the
          issued share capital of such ATI Entity) which has acquired all the

          shall have undertaken to the other parties to this Agreement to assume
          all the obligations of ATE under this Agreement and (b) ATE and such
          ATI Entity shall have undertaken to the other parties to this
          Agreement to ensure that, in the event ATI ceases to own at least
          95 per cent. of the issued share capital of such ATI Entity, such ATI
          Entity shall transfer all its rights, benefits and obligations under
          this Agreement to ATI, ATE or another ATI Entity (of which ATI owns at
          least 95 per cent. of its issued share capital).

(B)  Security Trustee/Secured Parties: (1) Each of the Security Trustee and the
Secured Parties may assign all or part of its rights under this Agreement
without the consent of any party to any assignee or transferee under the Credit
Agreement (but the assignor shall give to the Borrower prior notice of such
assignment or transfer). Any such assignee shall be entitled to the full benefit
of this Agreement to the same extent as if it were an original party in respect
of the rights assigned to it.

     (2) None of the Shareholders and the Borrower shall be liable for any costs
or expenses which may be incurred in connection with any assignment or transfer
of any of the rights of the Security Trustee or any of the Secured Parties under
this Agreement.

(C)  Disclosure of Information: The Security Trustee or any of the Secured
Parties may disclose on a confidential basis to any other party to the Financing
Documents or any of its other branches or its headquarters or to an actual or
potential New Bank, assignee, sub-participant or the like such information about
the Borrower, any Shareholder or any other person as it may think fit and may
disclose to such party such information about the Borrower or any of the
Shareholders with the prior consent in writing of the Borrower or, as the case
may be, such Shareholder (Provided that, at any time and from time to time after
the making of a declaration under Clause 17(B) of the Credit Agreement, (1) no
such consent will be required for any such disclosure and (2) the Security
Trustee or the relevant Secured Party making any such disclosure shall, if
practicable, consult with the Borrower or, as the case may be, such Shareholder
prior to making any such disclosure and shall
<PAGE>   128
                                      125

consider in good faith any request from the Borrower or, as the case may be,
such Shareholder to the Security Trustee or such Secured Party not to make any
such disclosure or to delay making any such disclosure).

(D)  Limitation on Certain Obligations: If, at the time of any assignment or
transfer by a Secured Party, circumstances exist which would oblige any
Shareholder to pay to the assignee or transferee under Clause 8(A) any sum in
excess of the sum (if any) which it would have been obliged to pay to that
Secured Party under that Clause in the absence of that assignment or transfer,
that Shareholder shall not be obliged to pay that excess.

12.  WAIVERS

     No failure on the part of the Security Trustee or any of the Secured
Parties to exercise, and no delay on its part in exercising, any right or remedy
under this Agreement will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will any single or
partial exercise of any right or remedy preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. The rights and remedies
provided in this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights
or remedies (whether provided by law or otherwise).

13.  COMMUNICATIONS

(A)  Addresses: Each communication under this Agreement shall be made by fax,

Agreement. The initial fax number, telex number, address and person (if any) so
designated by each party are set out against its name at the end of this

addressed to it at that address.

14.  PARTIAL INVALIDITY

     The illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this

15.  GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION

(A)  Governing Law: This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of
Singapore.

(B)  Singapore Courts: For the benefit of the Security Trustee and each Secured
Party, all the parties irrevocably agree that the courts of Singapore are to
have jurisdiction to settle any disputes which may arise out of or in connection
with this Agreement and that, accordingly, any legal action or proceedings
arising out of or in connection with this Agreement ("Proceedings") may be
brought in those courts and each of the Borrower and the Shareholders
irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of those courts.
<PAGE>   129
                                      126

(C)  Other Competent Jurisdiction: Nothing in this Clause shall limit the right
of the Security Trustee and/or any Secured Party to take Proceedings against the
Borrower or any of the Shareholders in any other court of competent jurisdiction
nor shall the taking of Proceedings in one or more jurisdictions preclude the
Security Trustee and/or any Secured Party from taking Proceedings in any other
jurisdiction, whether concurrently or not.

(D)  Venue: Each of the Borrower and the Shareholders irrevocably waives any
objection which it may at any time have to the laying of the venue of any
Proceedings in any court referred to in this Clause and any claim that any such
Proceedings have been brought in an inconvenient forum.

(E)  Service of Process: ATE irrevocably appoints Agilent Technologies Singapore
Pte Ltd (now of 438, Alexandra Road, #11-01/04, Alexandra Point, Singapore
119958, Attention: The Regional Legal Counsellor) to receive, for it and on its
behalf, service of process in any Proceedings in Singapore. Such service shall
be deemed completed on delivery to the process agent (whether or not it is
forwarded to and received by ATE). If for any reason the process agent ceases to
be able to act as such or no longer has an address in Singapore, ATE irrevocably
agrees to appoint a substitute process agent acceptable to the Security Trustee,
and to deliver to the Security Trustee a copy of the new agent's acceptance of
that appointment, within 30 days. Nothing shall affect the right to serve
process in any other manner permitted by law.

(F)  Consent to Enforcement, etc.: Each of the Borrower and the Shareholders
irrevocably and generally consents in respect of any Proceedings anywhere to the
giving of any relief or the issue of any process in connection with those
Proceedings including, without limitation, the making, enforcement or execution
against any assets whatsoever (irrespective of their use or intended use) of any
order or judgment which may be made or given in those Proceedings.

(G)  Waiver of Immunity: Each of the Borrower and the Shareholders irrevocably
agrees that, should the Security Trustee or any Secured Party take any
Proceedings anywhere (whether for an injunction, specific performance, damages
or otherwise), no immunity (to the extent that it may at any time exist, whether
on the grounds of sovereignty or otherwise) from those Proceedings, from
attachment (whether in aid of execution, before judgment or otherwise) of its
assets or from execution of judgment shall be claimed by it or on its behalf or
with respect to its assets, any such immunity being irrevocably waived. Each of
the Borrower and the Shareholders irrevocably agrees that it and its assets are,
and shall be, subject to such Proceedings, attachment or execution in respect of
its obligations under this Agreement.
