      (b) Each provision of this Agreement shall be subject to such reasonable
changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time to time after
consultation with the Company specify to be appropriate to reflect the adoption
of the Euro by any member state of the European Union and any relevant market
conventions or practices relating to the Euro.

      (c) Each provision of this Agreement also shall be subject to such
reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time to
time specify after consultation with the Company to be appropriate to reflect a
change in currency of any other country and any relevant market conventions or
practices relating to such change in currency.

      Section 2.01 The Loans The Term Borrowings. Subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein, the Term Lenders made term loans in Dollars to the
Company in the aggregate principal amount of $500,000,000 (the "EXISTING TERM

                                       54
<PAGE>

Replacement Term Commitment. Amounts borrowed under this Section 2.01(a) and
repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. Term Loans may be Base Rate Loans or
Eurodollar Rate Loans, as further provided herein. Replacement Term Loans are
Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

      (b) The Revolving Credit Borrowings. Subject to the terms and conditions
set forth herein (i) each Dollar Revolving Credit Lender severally agrees to
make loans to any Borrower denominated in Dollars as elected by such Borrower
pursuant to Section 2.02 (each such loan, a "DOLLAR REVOLVING CREDIT LOAN") from
time to time, on any Business Day until the Maturity Date, in an aggregate
Dollar Amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of such Lender's
Dollar Revolving Credit Commitment and (ii) each Multicurrency Revolving Credit
Lender severally agrees to make loans to any Borrower denominated in Dollars or,
with respect to loans made after the Closing Date, in an Alternative Currency as
elected by such Borrower pursuant to Section 2.02 (each such loan, a
"MULTICURRENCY REVOLVING CREDIT LOAN") from time to time, on any Business Day
until the Maturity Date, in an aggregate Dollar Amount not to exceed at any time
outstanding the amount of such Lender's Multicurrency Revolving Credit
Commitment; provided that after giving effect to any Revolving Credit Borrowing,
(i) with respect to the Dollar Revolving Credit Facility, the aggregate
Outstanding Amount of the Dollar Revolving Credit Loans of any Lender shall not
exceed such Lender's Dollar Revolving Credit Commitment, (ii) with respect to
the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Facility, the aggregate Outstanding Amount of
the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans of any Lender, plus such Lender's Pro
Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, plus such Lender's
Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans shall not
exceed the excess of such Lender's Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitment
over such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Overdraft Loan Facility Available
Amount then in effect, (iii) the aggregate Dollar Amount of Revolving Credit
Loans which are Alternative Currency Loans and L/C Obligations denominated in an
Alternative Currency shall not exceed the Alternative Currency Sublimit and (iv)
the aggregate Dollar Amount of Revolving Credit Loans made on the Closing Date
shall not exceed $30,000,000. Within the limits of each Lender's Revolving
Credit Commitment, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the
Borrowers may borrow under this Section 2.01(b), prepay under Section 2.05, and
reborrow under this Section 2.01(b). Revolving Credit Loans denominated in
Dollars may be Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans, as further provided
herein.

      Section 2.02 Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Loans. (a) Each
Term Borrowing, each Revolving Credit Borrowing, each conversion of Term Loans
or Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other, and each continuation of
Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be made upon the relevant Borrower's irrevocable
notice to the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such
notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 12:30 p.m.
(New York, New York time or London, England time in the case of any Borrowing
denominated in an Alternative Currency) (i) three (3) Business Days prior to the
requested date of any Borrowing of, continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans or any
conversion of Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans, and (ii) one (1)
Business Day before the requested date of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans. Each
telephonic notice by the relevant Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.02(a) must
be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written
Committed Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible
Officer of such Borrower. Each Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of

                                       55
<PAGE>

Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $2,000,000 or a whole
multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or comparable amounts determined by
the Administrative Agent in the case of Alternative Currency Loans). Except as
provided in Section 2.03(c), 2.04(c) and 2.04A(c), each Borrowing of or
conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a
whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. Each Committed Loan Notice
(whether telephonic or written) shall specify (i) whether the relevant Borrower
is requesting a Term Borrowing, a Dollar Revolving Credit Borrowing, a
Multicurrency Revolving Credit Borrowing, a conversion of Term Loans, Dollar
Revolving Credit Loans, or Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to
the other, or a continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans, (ii) the requested date
of the Borrowing, conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be
a Business Day), (iii) the principal amount of Loans to be borrowed, converted
or continued, (iv) the currency in which the Loans to be borrowed are to be
denominated, (v) the Type of Loans to be borrowed or to which existing Term
Loans, Dollar Revolving Credit Loans or Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans are
to be converted, and (vi) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period
with respect thereto; provided that prior to the Syndication Date, the Borrowers
may only select 1-month Interest Periods. If with respect to Loans denominated
in Dollars the relevant Borrower fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Committed
Loan Notice or fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or
continuation, then the applicable Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans shall be
made as, or converted to, Base Rate Loans. Any such automatic conversion to Base
Rate Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in
effect with respect to the applicable Eurodollar Rate Loans. If the relevant
Borrower requests a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Eurodollar
Rate Loans in any such Committed Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest
Period (or fails to give a timely notice requesting a continuation of Eurodollar
Rate Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency), it will be deemed to have
specified an Interest Period of one (1) month. If no currency is specified, the
requested Borrowing shall be in Dollars.

      (b) Following receipt of a Committed Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent
shall promptly notify each Lender of the amount of its Pro Rata Share of the
applicable Class of Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or
continuation is provided by the relevant Borrower, the Administrative Agent
shall notify each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to Base Rate
Loans or continuation described in Section 2.02(a). In the case of each
Borrowing, each Appropriate Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available
to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds at the Administrative Agent's
Office for the applicable currency not later than 1:00 p.m., in the case of any
Loan denominated in Dollars, and not later than the Applicable Time specified by
the Administrative Agent in the case of any Loan in an Alternative Currency, in
each case on the Business Day specified in the applicable Committed Loan Notice.
Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (and,
if such Borrowing is the initial Credit Extension, Section 4.01), the
Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the relevant
Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent either by (i)
crediting the account of such Borrower on the books of JPMorgan Chase Bank with
the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in
accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the
Administrative Agent by such Borrower; provided that if, on the date the
Committed Loan Notice with respect to such Borrowing is given by the relevant
Borrower, there are Swing Line Loans or L/C Borrowings outstanding, then the
proceeds of such Borrowing shall be applied, first, to the payment in full of

                                       56
<PAGE>

any such L/C Borrowings, second, to the payment in full of any such Swing Line
Loans, and third, to the relevant Borrower as provided above.

      (b) Except as otherwise provided herein, a Eurodollar Rate Loan may be
continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such
Eurodollar Rate Loan unless the Company pays the amount due, if any, under
Section 3.05 in connection therewith. During the existence of an Event of
Default, the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may require that no
Loans denominated in Dollars may be converted to or continued as Eurodollar Rate
Loans.

      (c) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the relevant Borrower
and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for
Eurodollar Rate Loans upon determination of such interest rate. The
determination of the Eurodollar Rate by the Administrative Agent shall be
conclusive in the absence of manifest error. At any time that Base Rate Loans
are outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall notify the relevant Borrower and
the Lenders of any change in JPMorgan Chase Bank prime rate used in determining
the Base Rate promptly following the public announcement of such change.

      (d) After giving effect to all Term Borrowings, all Revolving Credit
Borrowings, all conversions of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans from one
Type to the other, and all continuations of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans
as the same Type, there shall not be more than twenty (20) Interest Periods in
effect.

      (e) The failure of any Lender to make the Loan to be made by it as part of
any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any,
hereunder to make its Loan on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be
responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Loan to be made by
such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.

      Section 2.03 Letters of Credit. (a) The Letter of Credit Commitment. (i)
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (A) the L/C Issuer agrees,
in reliance upon the agreements of the other Multicurrency Revolving Credit
Lenders set forth in this Section 2.03, (1) from time to time on any Business
Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Letter of Credit
Expiration Date, to issue Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars or in an
Alternative Currency (or any additional currency requested and available from
the L/C Issuer or an Affiliate of the L/C Issuer) for the account of the Company
(or any Subsidiary of the Company so long as the Company is a joint and several
co-applicant, and references to "the Company" in this Section 2.03 shall be
deemed to include reference to such Subsidiary) and to amend or renew Letters of
Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with Section 2.03(b), and (2) to
honor drafts under the Letters of Credit; and (B) the Multicurrency Revolving
Credit Lenders severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit issued
pursuant to this Section 2.03; provided that the L/C Issuer shall not be
obligated to make any L/C Credit Extension with respect to any Letter of Credit,
and no Lender shall be obligated to participate in any Letter of Credit if as of
the date of such L/C Credit Extension, (x) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of
the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans of any Lender, plus such Lender's Pro
Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, plus such Lender's
Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans would exceed
the excess of such Lender's Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitment over such
Lender's Pro Rata Share of the

                                       57
<PAGE>

Overdraft Loan Facility Available Amount then in effect, (y) the Outstanding
Amount of the L/C Obligations would exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit or (z)
the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans which
are Alternative Currency Loans and L/C Obligations denominated in Alternative
Currencies would exceed the Alternative Currency Sublimit. Within the foregoing
limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Company's ability to
obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the Company
may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of
Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed.

            (ii)  The L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to issue any
      Letter of Credit if:

                        (A) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental
                  Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin
                  or restrain the L/C Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit,
                  or any Law applicable to the L/C Issuer or any request or
                  directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any
                  Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the L/C Issuer
                  shall prohibit, or request that the L/C Issuer refrain from,
                  the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of
                  Credit in particular or shall impose upon the L/C Issuer with
                  respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or
                  capital requirement (for which the L/C Issuer is not otherwise
                  compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or
                  shall impose upon the L/C Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost
                  or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and
                  which, in each case, the L/C Issuer in good faith deems
                  material to it;

                        (B) subject to Section 2.03(b)(iii), the expiry date of
                  such requested Letter of Credit would occur more than twelve
                  months after the date of issuance or last renewal, unless the
                  Required Lenders have approved such expiry date;

                        (C) the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit
                  would occur after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless
                  all the Lenders have approved such expiry date;

                        (D) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate
                  any Laws or one or more policies of the L/C Issuer;

                        (E) such Letter of Credit is in an initial amount less
                  than $100,000, in the case of a commercial Letter of Credit,
                  or $100,000, in the case of a standby Letter of Credit; or

                        (F) the L/C Issuer does not, as of the issuance date of
                  such requested Letter of Credit, issue Letters of Credit in
                  the requested currency.

            (iii)  The L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to amend any
      Letter of Credit if (A) the L/C Issuer would have no obligation at such
      time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms
      hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept
      the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit.

                                       58
<PAGE>

      (b) Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit;
Auto-Renewal Letters of Credit. (i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or
amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the Company delivered to the
L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of
Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer
of Company. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the L/C Issuer
and the Administrative Agent (A) not later than 12:30 p.m. at least two (2)
Business Days prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the
case may be, of any Letter of Credit denominated in Dollars, and (B) not later
than 11:00 a.m. at least three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed issuance
date or date of amendment, as the case may be, of any Letter of Credit
denominated in an Alternative Currency; or, in each case, such later date and
time as the L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in its sole
discretion. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of
Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail
reasonably satisfactory to the L/C Issuer: (a) the proposed issuance date of the
requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (b) the amount
thereof; (c) the expiry date thereof; (d) the name and address of the
beneficiary thereof; (e) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in
case of any drawing thereunder; (f) the full text of any certificate to be
presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; and (g) such
other matters as the L/C Issuer may reasonably request. In the case of a request
for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit
Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the L/C
Issuer (1) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (2) the proposed date of
amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (3) the nature of the
proposed amendment; and (4) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may reasonably
request.

            (ii) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the
      L/C Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in
      writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter
      of Credit Application from the Company and, if not, the L/C Issuer will
      provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Upon receipt by the
      L/C Issuer of confirmation from the Administrative Agent that the
      requested issuance or amendment is permitted in accordance with the terms
      hereof, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the L/C Issuer
      shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of
      the Company or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be.
      Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Multicurrency
      Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and
      unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the L/C Issuer a risk
      participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product
      of such Lender's Pro Rata Share times the amount of such Letter of Credit.

            (iii) If the Company so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit
      Application, the L/C Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion,
      agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions
      (each, an "AUTO-RENEWAL LETTER OF CREDIT"); provided that any such
      Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit must permit the L/C Issuer to prevent any
      such renewal at least once in each twelve month period (commencing with
      the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to
      the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the "NONRENEWAL NOTICE
      DATE") in each such twelve month period to be agreed upon at the time such
      Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the L/C Issuer,
      the Company shall not be required to make a specific request to the L/C
      Issuer for any such renewal. Once an Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit has
      been

                                       59
<PAGE>

      issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not
      require) the L/C Issuer to permit the renewal of such Letter of Credit at
      any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration
      Date; provided that the L/C Issuer shall not permit any such renewal if
      (A) the L/C Issuer has determined that it would have no obligation at such
      time to issue such Letter of Credit in its renewed form under the terms
      hereof (by reason of the provisions of Section 2.03(a)(ii) or otherwise),
      or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on
      or before the day that is five (5) Business Days before the Nonrenewal
      Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders
      have elected not to permit such renewal or (2) from the Administrative
      Agent, any Revolving Credit Lender or any Borrower that one or more of the
      applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied.

            (iv) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any
      amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto
      or to the beneficiary thereof, the L/C Issuer will also deliver to the
      Company and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such
      Letter of Credit or amendment.

      (c) Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations. (i) Upon
receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing
under such Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall notify the Company and the
Administrative Agent thereof. In the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in
an Alternative Currency or another foreign currency permitted by Section
2.03(a), the Company shall reimburse the L/C Issuer in such Alternative Currency
or such other foreign currency, as applicable, unless (A) the L/C Issuer (at its
option) shall have specified in such notice that it will require reimbursement
in Dollars, or (B) in the absence of any such requirement for reimbursement in
Dollars, the Company shall have notified the L/C Issuer promptly following
receipt of the notice of drawing that the Company will reimburse the L/C Issuer
in Dollars. In the case of any such reimbursement in Dollars of a drawing under
a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency or another foreign
currency permitted by Section 2.03(a), the L/C Issuer shall notify the Company
of the Dollar Amount of the drawing promptly following the determination
thereof. Not later than 11:00 a.m. on the date of any payment by the L/C Issuer
under a Letter of Credit to be reimbursed in Dollars, or the Applicable Time on
the date of any payment by the L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit to be
reimbursed in an Alternative Currency or another foreign currency permitted by
Section 2.03(a) (each such date, an "HONOR DATE"), the Company shall reimburse
the L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount
of such drawing; provided that if such notice is not provided to the Company
prior to such time on the Honor Date, then the Company shall reimburse the L/C
Issuer through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such
drawing in such currency on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension
of time shall be reflected in computing fees in respect of any such Letter of
Credit. If the Company fails to so reimburse the L/C Issuer by such time, the
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Multicurrency Revolving Credit
Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (expressed in
Dollars in the Dollar Amount thereof in the case of a Letter of Credit
denominated in an Alternative Currency or another foreign currency permitted by
Section 2.03(a)) (the "UNREIMBURSED AMOUNT"), and the amount of such
Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender's Pro Rata Share thereof. In such event,
the Company shall be deemed to have requested a Multicurrency Revolving Credit
Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount
equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to

                                       60
<PAGE>

the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for the principal amount of
Base Rate Loans but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the
Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments and the conditions set forth in
Section 4.02 (other than the delivery of a Committed Loan Notice). Any notice
given by the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section
2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing;
provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the
conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

            (ii) Each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender (including the
      Lender acting as L/C Issuer) shall upon any notice pursuant to Section
      2.03(c)(i) make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the
      account of the L/C Issuer, in Dollars, at the Administrative Agent's
      Office for Dollar-denominated payments in an amount equal to its Pro Rata
      Share of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business
      Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon,
      subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Multicurrency
      Revolving Credit Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to
      have made a Base Rate Loan to the Company in such amount. The
      Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the L/C Issuer,
      or if requested by the L/C Issuer, the equivalent amount thereof in an
      Alternative Currency or another foreign currency permitted by Section
      2.03(a) as determined by the Administrative Agent at such time on the
      basis of the Spot Rate (determined as of such funding date) for the
      purchase of such Alternative Currency with Dollars.

            (iii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully
      refinanced by a Multicurrency Revolving Credit Borrowing of Base Rate
      Loans because the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 cannot be satisfied
      or for any other reason, the Company shall be deemed to have incurred from
      the L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount
      that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on
      demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default
      Rate. In such event, each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender's payment
      to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to
      Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its
      participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance
      from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under
      this Section 2.03.

            (iv) Until each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender funds its
      Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this
      Section 2.03(c) to reimburse the L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any
      Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender's Pro Rata Share of
      such amount shall be solely for the account of the L/C Issuer.

            (v) Each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender's obligation to make
      Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the L/C
      Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this
      Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be
      affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim,
      recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the
      L/C Issuer, any Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever;
      (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other
      occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the
      foregoing; provided that each

                                       61
<PAGE>

      Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender's obligation to make Multicurrency
      Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) is subject to the
      conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than delivery by the relevant
      Borrower of a Committed Loan Notice ). No such making of an L/C Advance
      shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Company to
      reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by the L/C
      Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided
      herein.

            (vi) If any Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender fails to make
      available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer
      any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing
      provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section
      2.03(c)(ii), the L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Lender
      (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with
      interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to
      the date on which such payment is immediately available to the L/C Issuer
      at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to
      time in effect. A certificate of the L/C Issuer submitted to any
      Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender (through the Administrative Agent)
      with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.03(c)(vi) shall be
      conclusive absent manifest error.

      (d) Repayment of Participations. (i) If, at any time after the L/C Issuer
has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any
Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender such Lender's L/C Advance in respect of
such payment in accordance with Section 2.03(c), the Administrative Agent
receives for the account of the L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related
Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the Company or
otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the
Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender
its Pro Rata Share thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest
payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender's L/C Advance
was outstanding) in the same funds as those received by the Administrative
Agent.

            (ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the
      account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be
      returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.06
      (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the L/C Issuer in
      its discretion), each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender shall pay to
      the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer its Pro Rata
      Share thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon
      from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such
      Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from
      time to time in effect.

      (e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Company to reimburse the
L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each L/C
Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid
strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances,
including the following:

            (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit,
      this Agreement, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;

                                       62
<PAGE>

            (ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or
      other right that any Loan Party may have at any time against any
      beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for
      whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the L/C
      Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the
      transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any
      agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;

            (iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented
      under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or
      insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or
      inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or
      otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such
      Letter of Credit;

            (iv) any payment by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit
      against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly
      comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the
      L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a
      trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of
      creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to
      any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any
      arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law;

            (v) any exchange, release or nonperfection of any Collateral, or any
      release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from the
      Guaranty or any other guarantee, for all or any of the Obligations any
      Loan Party in respect of such Letter of Credit; or

            (vi) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not
      similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that
      might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any
      Loan Party;

provided that the foregoing shall not excuse the L/C Issuer from liability to
the Company to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential
damages, claims in respect of which are waived by the Company to the extent
permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Company that are caused by the L/C
Issuer's gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by the final
judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) when determining whether drafts
and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms
thereof. The Company shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and
each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of
noncompliance with the Company's instructions or other irregularity, the Company
will promptly notify the L/C Issuer. The Company shall be conclusively deemed to
have waived any such claim against the L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless
such notice is given as aforesaid.

      (f) Role of L/C Issuer. Each Lender and the Company agree that, in paying
any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall not have any
responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates
and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or
inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of
the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the L/C Issuer,
any

                                       63
<PAGE>

Agent-Related Person nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or
assignees of the L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action
taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of
the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or
omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined
by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction); or (iii) the due
execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or
instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Letter of Credit Application. The
Company hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or
transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided that this
assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Company's pursuing
such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at
law or under any other agreement. None of the L/C Issuer, any Agent-Related
Person, nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of
the L/C Issuer, shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described
in clauses (i) through (vi) of Section 2.03(e); provided that anything in such
clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may have a claim against
the L/C Issuer, and the L/C Issuer may be liable to the Company, to the extent,
but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary,
damages suffered by the Company which the Company proves were caused by the L/C
Issuer's willful misconduct or gross negligence (as determined by the final
judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) or the L/C Issuer's willful or
grossly negligent failure (as determined by the final judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction) to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation
to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying
with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in
limitation of the foregoing, the L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on
their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation,
regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and the L/C Issuer
shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument
transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit
or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part,
which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.

      (g) Cash Collateral. (i) If the L/C Issuer has honored any full or partial
drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an
L/C Borrowing and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 to a Multicurrency
Revolving Credit Borrowing cannot then be met, or (ii) if, as of the Letter of
Credit Expiration Date, any Letter of Credit may for any reason remain
outstanding and partially or wholly undrawn, the Company shall Cash
Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations (in an amount
equal to such Outstanding Amount determined as of the date of such L/C Borrowing
or the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, as the case may be), and shall do so
not later than 2:00 P.M., New York City time, on (x) the Business Day that the
Company receives notice thereof, if such notice is received on such day prior to
12:00 Noon, New York City time, or (y) if clause (x) above does not apply, the
Business Day immediately following the day that the Company receives such
notice. For purposes hereof, "CASH COLLATERALIZE" means to pledge and deposit
with or deliver to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuer
and the Lenders, as collateral for the L/C Obligations, cash or deposit account
balances ("CASH COLLATERAL") pursuant to documentation in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer (which
documents are hereby consented to by the Lenders). Derivatives of such term have
corresponding meanings. The Company (excluding any UK Loan Party included in the
definition of "Company" pursuant to Section 2.03(a)) hereby grants to the
Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuer and the Lenders, a
security interest in all such cash, deposit

                                       64
<PAGE>

accounts and all balances therein and all proceeds of the foregoing. Cash
Collateral shall be maintained in blocked accounts at JPMorgan Chase Bank and
may be invested in readily available Cash Equivalents. If at any time the
Administrative Agent determines that any funds held as Cash Collateral are
subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent
or that the total amount of such funds is less than the aggregate Outstanding
Amount of all L/C Obligations, the Company will, forthwith upon demand by the
Administrative Agent, pay to the Administrative Agent, as additional funds to be
deposited and held in the deposit accounts at JPMorgan Chase Bank as aforesaid,
an amount equal to the excess of (a) such aggregate Outstanding Amount over (b)
the total amount of funds, if any, then held as Cash Collateral that the
Administrative Agent determines to be free and clear of any such right and
claim. Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit for which funds are on deposit
as Cash Collateral, such funds shall be applied, to the extent permitted under
applicable law, to reimburse the L/C Issuer. To the extent the amount of any
Cash Collateral exceeds the then Outstanding Amount of such L/C Obligations and
so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the excess shall
be refunded to the Company.

      (h) Applicability of ISP98 and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by
the L/C Issuer and the Company when a Letter of Credit is issued, (i) the rules
of the "International Standby Practices 1998" published by the Institute of
International Banking Law & Practice (or such later version thereof as may be in
effect at the time of issuance) shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit,
and (ii) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits,
as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce (the "ICC")
at the time of issuance shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit.

      (i) Letter of Credit Fees. The Company shall pay to the Administrative
Agent for the account of each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender in
accordance with its Pro Rata Share a Letter of Credit fee for each Letter of
Credit issued pursuant to this Agreement equal to the Applicable Rate times the
daily maximum amount then available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit
(whether or not such maximum amount is then in effect under such Letter of
Credit if such maximum amount increases periodically pursuant to the terms of
such Letter of Credit). Such letter of credit fees shall be computed on a
quarterly basis in arrears. Such letter of credit fees shall be due and payable
on the first Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and
December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of
such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on
demand. If there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the
daily maximum amount of each Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied
by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such
Applicable Rate was in effect.

      (j) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C
Issuer. The Company shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its own account a
fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit issued equal to 0.125% per
annum of the daily maximum amount then available to be drawn under such Letter
of Credit (whether or not such maximum amount is then in effect under such
Letter of Credit if such maximum amount increases periodically pursuant to the
terms of such Letter of Credit). Such fronting fees shall be computed on a
quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fees shall be due and payable on the
first Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December,
commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter
of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on

                                       65
<PAGE>

demand. In addition, the Company shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its
own account the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing
fees, and other standard costs and charges, of the L/C Issuer relating to
letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and
standard costs and charges are due and payable within five (5) Business Days of
demand and are nonrefundable.

      (k) Conflict with Letter of Credit Application. Notwithstanding anything
else to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event of any conflict between the
terms hereof and the terms of any Letter of Credit Application, the terms hereof
shall control.

      Section 2.02 Swing Line Loans. (a) The Swing Line. Subject to the terms
and conditions set forth herein, the Swing Line Lender agrees to make loans
(each such loan, a "SWING LINE LOAN") to any Borrower from time to time on any
Business Day (other than the Closing Date) until the Maturity Date in an
aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of the Swing
Line Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact that such Swing Line Loans, when
aggregated with the Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of Multicurrency
Revolving Credit Loans and L/C Obligations of the Lender acting as Swing Line
Lender, may exceed the amount of such Lender's Multicurrency Revolving Credit
Commitment; provided that, after giving effect to any Swing Line Loan, the
aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans of any
Lender, plus such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C
Obligations, plus such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all
Swing Line Loans shall not exceed the excess of such Lender's Multicurrency
Revolving Credit Commitment over such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Overdraft
Loan Facility Available Amount then in effect; provided further that, the
Borrowers shall not use the proceeds of any Swing Line Loan to refinance any
outstanding Swing Line Loan. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the
other terms and conditions hereof, any Borrower may borrow under this Section
2.04, prepay under Section 2.05, and reborrow under this Section 2.04. Each
Swing Line Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan. Immediately upon the making of a
Swing Line Loan, each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to,
and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing
Line Lender a risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to
the product of such Lender's Pro Rata Share times the amount of such Swing Line
Loan.

      (b) Borrowing Procedures. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made upon the
relevant Borrower's irrevocable notice to the Swing Line Lender and the
Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be
received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than
1:00 p.m. on the requested borrowing date, and shall specify (i) the amount to
be borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $100,000, and (ii) the requested
borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day. Each such telephonic notice must
be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Swing Line Lender and the
Administrative Agent of a written Swing Line Loan Notice, appropriately
completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the relevant Borrower. Promptly
after receipt by the Swing Line Lender of any telephonic Swing Line Loan Notice,
the Swing Line Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone
or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received such Swing Line
Loan Notice and, if not, the Swing Line Lender will notify the Administrative
Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof. Unless the Swing
Line Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the
Administrative Agent (including at the request of any

                                       66
<PAGE>

Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender) prior to 2:00 p.m. on the date of the
proposed Swing Line Borrowing (A) directing the Swing Line Lender not to make
such Swing Line Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the proviso to
the first sentence of Section 2.04(a), or (B) that one or more of the applicable
conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied, then, subject to the
terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender will, not later than 3:00
p.m. on the borrowing date specified in such Swing Line Loan Notice, make the
amount of its Swing Line Loan available to the relevant Borrower.

      (c) Refinancing of Swing Line Loans. (i) The Swing Line Lender at any time
in its sole and absolute discretion may request, on behalf of the relevant
Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so
request on its behalf), that each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender make a
Base Rate Loan in an amount equal to such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the amount
of Swing Line Loans then outstanding. Such request shall be made in writing
(which written request shall be deemed to be a Committed Loan Notice for
purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.02,
without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal
amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion of the
Aggregate Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments and the conditions set
forth in Section 4.02. The Swing Line Lender shall furnish the relevant Borrower
with a copy of the applicable Committed Loan Notice promptly after delivering
such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Multicurrency Revolving Credit
Lender shall make an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the amount specified
in such Committed Loan Notice available to the Administrative Agent in Same Day
Funds for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Administrative Agent's
Office for Dollar denominated payments not later than 1:00 p.m. on the day
specified in such Committed Loan Notice, whereupon, subject to Section
2.04(c)(ii), each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender that so makes funds
available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the relevant Borrower
in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to
the Swing Line Lender.

            (ii) If for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by
      such a Multicurrency Revolving Credit Borrowing in accordance with Section
      2.04(c)(i), the request for Base Rate Loans submitted by the Swing Line
      Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Swing
      Line Lender that each of the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lenders fund
      its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan and each
      Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender's payment to the Administrative
      Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section
      2.04(c)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation.

            (iii) If any Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender fails to make
      available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line
      Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the
      foregoing provisions of this Section 2.04(c) by the time specified in
      Section 2.04(c)(i), the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover
      from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand,
      such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such
      payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately
      available to the Swing Line Lender at a rate per annum equal to the
      applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. A certificate of
      the Swing Line Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative
      Agent)

                                       67
<PAGE>

      with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be
      conclusive absent manifest error.

            (iv) Each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender's obligation to make
      Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans or to purchase and fund risk
      participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) shall
      be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any
      circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense
      or other right which such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender,
      the relevant Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B)
      the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence,
      event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing;
      provided that each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender's obligation to
      make Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c)
      is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02. No such funding of
      risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of
      the relevant Borrower to repay Swing Line Loans, together with interest as
      provided herein.

      (d) Repayment of Participations. (i) At any time after any Multicurrency
Revolving Credit Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swing
Line Loan, if the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such
Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Lender its Pro
Rata Share of such payment (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest
payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender's risk
participation was funded) in the same funds as those received by the Swing Line
Lender.

            (ii) If any payment received by the Swing Line Lender in respect of
      principal or interest on any Swing Line Loan is required to be returned by
      the Swing Line Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section
      10.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swing Line
      Lender in its discretion), each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender
      shall pay to the Swing Line Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof on demand of
      the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such
      demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to
      the applicable Overnight Rate. The Administrative Agent will make such
      demand upon the request of the Swing Line Lender.

      (e) Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender. The Swing Line Lender shall
be responsible for invoicing the Borrowers for interest on the Swing Line Loans.
Until each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender funds its Base Rate Loan or
risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.04 to refinance such Lender's Pro
Rata Share of any Swing Line Loan, interest in respect of such Pro Rata Share
shall be solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender.

      (f) Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender. The Borrowers shall make all
payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line Loans directly
to the Swing Line Lender.

      Section 2.04A Overdraft Loan Facility. (a) Overdraft Loan Facility.
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and therein, the Overdraft
Loan Facility Lender has agreed to make loans (each such loan, an "OVERDRAFT
FACILITY LOAN") to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries from time to time
pursuant to the Overdraft Loan Facility in an aggregate amount not to exceed at
any time outstanding the amount of the Overdraft Loan Facility

                                       68
<PAGE>

Available Amount, notwithstanding the fact that such Overdraft Facility Loans,
when aggregated with the Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of
Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans and L/C Obligations of the Lender acting as
Overdraft Loan Facility Lender, may exceed the amount of such Lender's
Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitment; provided that after giving effect to
any Overdraft Facility Loans, the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the
Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans of any Lender plus such Lender's Pro Rata
Share of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, plus such Lender's Pro
Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans plus such Lender's
Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all Overdraft Facility Loans shall
not exceed such Lender's Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitment. Each
Overdraft Facility Loan shall bear interest as provided on the Overdraft Loan
Facility (which interest rate shall not be less than the interest rate from time
to time applicable to Base Rate Loans). Immediately upon the making of an
Overdraft Facility Loan, each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender shall be
deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from
the Overdraft Loan Facility Lender a risk participation in such Overdraft
Facility Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Lender's Pro Rata Share
times the amount of such Overdraft Facility Loan. The Overdraft Loan Facility
Lender may terminate the Overdraft Loan Facility at any time upon thirty days'
prior written notice to the Company and the Administrative Agent.

      (b) Borrowing Procedures. The Overdraft Loan Facility Lender shall make
Overdraft Facility Loans available to the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries from time to time in accordance with the procedures set forth in
the Overdraft Loan Facility. From time to time at the request of the
Administrative Agent, but no less frequently than monthly, the Company shall
notify the Administrative Agent of the Overdraft Loan Facility Available Amount
and of the aggregate Dollar Amount of Overdraft Facility Loans then outstanding
thereunder. The Company shall also notify the Administrative Agent of any change
in the Overdraft Loan Facility Available Amount. The Overdraft Loan Facility
Lender agrees that it shall not permit the Dollar Amount of the outstanding
Overdraft Facility Loans to exceed the Overdraft Loan Facility Available Amount
at any time. Unless the Overdraft Loan Facility Lender has received notice (by
telephone or in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request
of any Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender) (A) directing the Overdraft Loan
Facility Lender not to make additional Overdraft Facility Loans as a result of
the limitations set forth in the proviso to the first sentence of Section
2.04(A)(a), or (B) that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in
Section 4.02 is not then satisfied, then, subject to the other terms and
conditions hereof, the Overdraft Loan Facility Lender may make the Overdraft
Facility Loans available to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries.

      (c) Refinancing of Overdraft Loan Facility. (i) The Overdraft Loan
Facility Lender at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may request, on
behalf of the Company (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Overdraft Loan
Facility Lender to so request on its behalf), that each Multicurrency Revolving
Credit Lender make a Base Rate Loan in an amount equal to such Lender's Pro Rata
Share of the Dollar Amount of Overdraft Facility Loans then outstanding. Such
request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a
Committed Loan Notice for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the
requirements of Section 2.02, without regard to the minimum and multiples
specified therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to
the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Multicurrency Revolving Credit
Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02. The Overdraft Loan
Facility

                                       69
<PAGE>

Lender shall furnish the Company with a copy of the applicable Committed Loan
Notice promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each
Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender shall make an amount equal to its Pro Rata
Share of the amount specified in such Committed Loan Notice available to the
Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds for the account of the Overdraft Loan
Facility Lender at the Administrative Agent's Office for Dollar denominated
payments not later than 1:00 p.m. on the day specified in such Committed Loan
Notice, whereupon, subject to Section 2.04A(c)(ii), each Multicurrency Revolving
Credit Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base
Rate Loan to the Company in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit
the funds so received to the Overdraft Loan Facility Lender.

            (ii) If for any reason any Overdraft Facility Loan cannot be
      refinanced by such a Multicurrency Revolving Credit Borrowing in
      accordance with Section 2.04(A)(c)(i), the request for Base Rate Loans
      submitted by the Overdraft Loan Facility Lender as set forth herein shall
      be deemed to be a request by the Overdraft Loan Facility Lender that each
      of the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lenders fund its risk participation
      in the relevant Overdraft Facility Loan and each Multicurrency Revolving
      Credit Lender's payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the
      Overdraft Loan Facility Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(A)(c)(i) shall be
      deemed payment in respect of such participation.

            (iii) If any Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender fails to make
      available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Overdraft
      Loan Facility Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender
      pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.04A(c) by the time
      specified in Section 2.04A(c)(i), the Overdraft Loan Facility Lender shall
      be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative
      Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from
      the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is
      immediately available to the Overdraft Loan Facility Lender at a rate per
      annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect.
      A certificate of the Overdraft Loan Facility Lender submitted to any
      Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts
      owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

            (iv) Each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender's obligation to make
      Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans or to purchase and fund risk
      participations in Overdraft Facility Loans pursuant to this Section
      2.04A(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by
      any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment,
      defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Overdraft
      Loan Facility Lender, the Company and its Subsidiaries or any other Person
      for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default,
      or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to
      any of the foregoing; provided that each Multicurrency Revolving Credit
      Lender's obligation to make Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans pursuant
      to this Section 2.04(A)(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in
      Section 4.02. No such funding of risk participations shall relieve or
      otherwise impair the obligation of the Company and its Subsidiaries to
      repay Overdraft Facility Loans, together with interest as provided herein.

                                       70
<PAGE>

      (d) Repayment of Participations. (i) At any time after any Multicurrency
Revolving Credit Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in an
Overdraft Facility Loan, if the Overdraft Loan Facility Lender receives any
payment on account of such Overdraft Facility Loan, the Overdraft Loan Facility
Lender will distribute to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such
Lender, such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such payment (appropriately adjusted, in
the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such
Lender's risk participation was funded) in the same funds as those received by
the Overdraft Loan Facility Lender.

            (ii) If any payment received by the Overdraft Loan Facility Lender
      in respect of principal or interest on any Overdraft Facility Loan is
      required to be returned by the Overdraft Loan Facility Lender under any of
      the circumstances described in Section 10.06 (including pursuant to any
      settlement entered into by the Overdraft Loan Facility Lender in its
      discretion), each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender shall pay to the
      Overdraft Loan Facility Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof on demand of the
      Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand
      to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the
      applicable Overnight Rate. The Administrative Agent will make such demand
      upon the request of the Overdraft Loan Facility Lender.

      (e) Interest for Account of Overdraft Loan Facility Lender. The Overdraft
Loan Facility Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Company and its
Restricted Subsidiaries for interest on the Overdraft Loan Facility. Until each
Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender funds its Base Rate Loan or risk
participation pursuant to this Section 2.04A to refinance such Lender's Pro Rata
Share of any Overdraft Facility Loan, interest in respect of such Pro Rata Share
shall be solely for the account of the Overdraft Loan Facility Lender.

      (f) Payments Directly to Overdraft Loan Facility Lender. The Company and
its Restricted Subsidiaries shall make all payments of principal and interest in
respect of the Overdraft Facility Loans directly to the Overdraft Loan Facility
Lender.

      (g) Satisfaction of Conditions; Acknowledgement. The Company agrees, for
itself and its Restricted Subsidiaries, that it and its Restricted Subsidiaries
will not borrow Overdraft Facility Loans unless the conditions set forth in
Section 4.02(a) and (b) are satisfied, and the Company represents and warrants
that on the date of each such borrowing such conditions will be satisfied (in
each case as if such borrowing was a Credit Extension referred to in Section
4.02(a) and (b)) and each such borrowing shall be deemed to be such a
representation and warranty on and as of such date. Promptly following a request
by the Administrative Agent, the Company shall cause each of its Restricted
Subsidiaries which borrows under the Overdraft Loan Facility to acknowledge in
writing to the Administrative Agent that it agrees to this Section 2.04A and the
other provisions of this Agreement.

      (h) Conversion to Base Rate Loan. The Company and the Guarantors of the
Obligations under the Overdraft Loan Facility have guaranteed as primary
obligors all payment obligations of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries
with respect to the Overdraft Loan Facility. The Company agrees, for itself and
its Restricted Subsidiaries, that on the Overdraft Participation Date all
Overdraft Facility Loans outstanding on the Overdraft Participation Date

                                       71
<PAGE>

shall be converted to Dollars at the Spot Rate, shall become due and payable on
such Date and shall constitute Base Rate Loans owed by the Loan Parties and by
the Restricted Subsidiaries to whom such Overdraft Facility Loans were made.

      Section 2.05 Prepayments. (a) Optional. (i) Any Borrower may, upon notice
to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay
Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans in whole or in part without premium or
penalty; provided, that any optional prepayment of Term Loans (funded or
converted on the Second Restatement Effective Date) effected during the period
beginning on the Second Restatement Effective Date and ending on (and including)
the first anniversary of the Second Restatement Effective Date with the proceeds
of a substantially concurrent issuance or incurrence of additional term loans
under this Agreement, as amended, amended and restated, supplemented, waived or
otherwise modified from time to time (excluding a refinancing of all the
Facilities in connection with another transaction not permitted by this
Agreement (as determined prior to giving effect to any amendment or waiver of
this Agreement in connection with such transaction)), shall be accompanied by a
prepayment fee equal to 1.0% of the aggregate principal amount of such
prepayment if, immediately prior to such prepayment, the Applicable Rate (which,
for such purposes only, shall be deemed to include all upfront or similar fees
or original issue discount payable to all Lenders providing the Term Loans)
relating to the Term Loans exceeds the Applicable Rate (which, for such purposes
only, shall be deemed to include all upfront or similar fees or original issue
discount payable to all Lenders providing additional term loans) relating to
such additional term loans; provided, further that (1) such notice must be
received by the Administrative Agent not later than 12:30 p.m. (New York, New
York time or London, England time in the case of Loans denominated in an
Alternative Currency) (A) three (3) Business Days prior to any date of
prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans and (B) on the date of prepayment of Base
Rate Loans; (2) any prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a principal
amount of $2,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof (or
comparable amounts determined by the Administrative Agent in the case of
Alternative Currency Loans); and (3) any prepayment of Base Rate Loans shall be
in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess
thereof or, in each case, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then
outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such
prepayment and the Class(es) and Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid. The
Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Appropriate Lender of its receipt
of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such
prepayment. If such notice is given by a Borrower, such Borrower shall make such
prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and
payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan
shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon, together with any
additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05. Each prepayment of
principal of, and interest on, Alternative Currency Loans shall be made in the
relevant Alternative Currency. Each prepayment of the Loans pursuant to this
Section 2.05(a) shall be paid to the Appropriate Lenders in accordance with
their respective Pro Rata Shares.

            (ii) Any Borrower may, upon notice to the Swing Line Lender (with a
      copy to the Administrative Agent), at any time or from time to time,
      voluntarily prepay Swing Line Loans in whole or in part without premium or
      penalty; provided that (1) such notice must be received by the Swing Line
      Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date
      of the prepayment, and (2) any such prepayment shall be in a

                                       72
<PAGE>

      minimum principal amount of $100,000. Each such notice shall specify the
      date and amount of such prepayment. If such notice is given by any
      Borrower, such Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount
      specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified
      therein.

            (iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
      Agreement, the relevant Borrower may rescind any notice of prepayment
      under Section 2.05(a)(i)or 2.05(a)(ii) if such prepayment would have
      resulted from a refinancing of all of the Facilities, which refinancing
      shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed.

            (iv) Each prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(a)
      shall be applied in direct order of maturity to principal installments of
      the Term Loans.

            (v) Prepayments of Overdraft Facility Loans shall be made in
      accordance with the Overdraft Loan Facility.

      (b) Mandatory. (i) Within five (5) Business Days after financial
statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 6.01(a) and the related
Compliance Certificate has been delivered pursuant to Section 6.02(b), the
Company shall cause to be prepaid an aggregate Dollar Amount of Term Loans in an
amount equal to (A) 50% of Excess Cash Flow, if any, for the fiscal year covered
by such financial statements (commencing with the fiscal year ended December 31,
2005) minus (B) any voluntary prepayment of Term Loans during such fiscal year
(other than in connection with the Second Amendment and Restatement Agreement);
provided that the percentage in clause (i)(A) shall be reduced to (x) 25% if the
Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year was
less than 3.75:1 and (y) 0% if the Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the
immediately preceding fiscal year was less than 3.25:1.

            (ii) (A) If (x) Holdings, the Company or any of its Restricted
      Subsidiaries Disposes of any property or assets (other than any
      Disposition of any property or assets permitted by Section 7.05(a), (b),
      (c), (d) (to the extent constituting a Disposition by any Restricted
      Subsidiary that is not a Loan Party to a Loan Party), (e), (f), (g), (h),
      (i) or (j)) or (y) any Casualty Event occurs, which in the aggregate
      results in the realization or receipt by Holdings, the Company or such
      Restricted Subsidiary of Net Cash Proceeds, the Company shall cause to be
      prepaid on or prior to the date which is ten (10) Business Days after the
      date of the realization or receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds an aggregate
      Dollar Amount of Term Loans in an amount equal to 100% of all Net Cash
      Proceeds received; provided that no such prepayment shall be required
      pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(ii)(A) if, on or prior to such date, the
      Company shall have given written notice to the Administrative Agent of its
      intention to reinvest all or a portion of such Net Cash Proceeds in
      accordance with Section 2.05(b)(ii)(B) (which election may only be made if
      no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing);

                  (B) With respect to any Net Cash Proceeds realized or received
            with respect to any Disposition (other than any Disposition
            specifically excluded from the application of Section
            2.05(b)(ii)(A)) or any Casualty Event, at the option of the Company,
            and so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
            continuing, the Company may reinvest all or

                                       73
<PAGE>

            any portion of such Net Cash Proceeds in assets useful for its
            business within (x) three hundred and sixty-five (365) days
            following receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds or (y) if the Company
            enters into a contract to reinvest such Net Cash Proceeds within
            three hundred and sixty-five (365) days following receipt thereof,
            within one hundred and eighty (180) days of the date of such
            contract; provided that if any Net Cash Proceeds are no longer
            intended to be so reinvested at any time after delivery of a notice
            of reinvestment election, an amount equal to any such Net Cash
            Proceeds shall be applied within five (5) Business Days after such
            Net Cash Proceeds are no longer intended to be so reinvested to the
            prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in this Section 2.05.

      (iii) [Reserved.]

      (iv) If Holdings, the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries incurs
or issues (A) any Indebtedness not expressly permitted to be incurred or issued
pursuant to Section 7.03 or (B) any Permitted Subordinated Indebtedness
permitted to be incurred under Section 7.03(a)(ii)(B) which such Section
requires to be used to prepay Loans, the Company shall cause to be prepaid an
aggregate Dollar Amount of Term Loans in an amount equal to 100% of all Net Cash
Proceeds received therefrom on or prior to the date which is five (5) Business
Days after the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds; provided that such percentage
shall be reduced to 50% if the Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the prior
fiscal quarter was less than 3.5:1.

      (v) If for any reason the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Dollar
Revolving Credit Loans at any time exceeds the aggregate Dollar Revolving Credit
Commitments then in effect, the Company shall promptly prepay or cause to be
promptly prepaid Dollar Revolving Credit Loans in an aggregate amount equal to
such excess. If for any reason the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the
Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans and the L/C Obligations at any time exceeds
the aggregate Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect (other
than as a result of the determination of the Dollar Amount pursuant to Section
2.17, in which case the provisions of Section 2.17(d) shall apply), the Company
shall promptly prepay or cause to be promptly prepaid the Multicurrency
Revolving Credit Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an
aggregate amount equal to such excess; provided that the Company shall not be
required to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section
2.05(b)(v) unless after the prepayment in full of the Multicurrency Revolving
Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans such aggregate Outstanding Amount exceeds the
aggregate Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect. If for any
reason the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Overdraft Facility Loans at any
time exceeds the aggregate Overdraft Loan Facility Available Amount then in
effect (other than as a result of the determination of the Dollar Amount
pursuant to Section 2.17, in which case the provisions of Section 2.17(e) shall
apply), the Company shall promptly prepay or cause to be promptly prepaid the
Overdraft Facility Loans in an aggregate amount equal to such excess.

                                       74
<PAGE>

            (vi) Each prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)
      shall be applied in direct order of maturities; and each such prepayment
      shall be paid to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata
      Shares (prior to giving effect to any rejection by any Term Lender of any
      such prepayment pursuant to clause (vii) below), subject to clause (vii)
      of this Section 2.05(b).

            (vii) The Company shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing
      of any mandatory prepayment of Term Loans required to be made pursuant to
      clauses (i) through (iv) of this Section 2.05(b) at least three (3)
      Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment. Each such notice shall
      specify the date of such prepayment and provide a reasonably detailed
      calculation of the amount of such prepayment. The Administrative Agent
      will promptly notify each Appropriate Lender of the contents of the
      Company's prepayment notice and of such Appropriate Lender's Pro Rata
      Share of the prepayment. Any Term Lender (a "DECLINING LENDER", and any
      Term Lender which is not a Declining Lender, an "ACCEPTING LENDER") may
      elect, by delivering, not less than one (1) Business Day prior to the
      proposed prepayment date, a written notice that any mandatory prepayment
      otherwise required to be made with respect to the Term Loans held by such
      Term Lender pursuant to clauses (i) through (iv) of this Section 2.05(b)
      not be made, in which event the portion of such prepayment which would
      otherwise have been applied to the Term Loans of the Declining Lenders
      shall instead be retained by the Company.

            (viii) Funding Losses, Etc. All prepayments under this Section 2.05
      shall be made together with, in the case of any such prepayment of a
      Eurodollar Rate Loan on a date other than the last day of an Interest
      Period therefor, any amounts owing in respect of such Eurodollar Rate Loan
      pursuant to Section 3.05. Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of
      Section 2.05(b), so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
      continuing, if any prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans is required to be
      made under this Section 2.05(b), other than on the last day of the
      Interest Period therefor, the relevant Borrower may, in its sole
      discretion, deposit the amount of any such prepayment otherwise required
      to be made thereunder into a Cash Collateral Account until the last day of
      such Interest Period, at which time the Administrative Agent shall be
      authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from any
      Borrower or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment
      of such Loans in accordance with this Section 2.05(b). Upon the occurrence
      and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative
      Agent shall also be authorized (without any further action by or notice to
      or from any Borrower or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the
      prepayment of the outstanding Loans in accordance with this Section
      2.05(b).

      Section 1.06 Termination or Reduction of Commitments. (a) Optional. The
Company may, upon written notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate the
unused Commitments of any Class, or from time to time permanently reduce the
unused Commitments of any Class; provided that (i) any such notice shall be
received by the Administrative Agent three (3) Business Days prior to the date
of termination or reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an
aggregate amount of $500,000 or any whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof
and (iii) if, after giving effect to any reduction of the Commitments, the
Alternative Currency Sublimit, the Letter of Credit Sublimit, the Swing Line
Sublimit or the Overdraft Loan Facility Available

                                       75
<PAGE>

Amount exceeds the amount of the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments,
such sublimit or the Overdraft Loan Facility Available Amount, as the case may
be, shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess. The amount of
any such Commitment reduction shall not be applied to the Alternative Currency
Sublimit or the Letter of Credit Sublimit unless otherwise specified by the
Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may rescind or postpone any
notice of termination of the Commitments if such termination would have resulted
from a refinancing of all of the Facilities, which refinancing shall not be
consummated or otherwise shall be delayed.

      (b) Mandatory. The Term Commitment of each Replacement Term Lender shall
be automatically and permanently reduced to $0 on the Second Replacement Term
Loan Borrowing Date (as defined in the Second Amendment and Restatement
Agreement).

      (c) Application of Commitment Reductions; Payment of Fees. The
Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any termination or
reduction of unused portions of the Letter of Credit Sublimit, or the unused
Commitments of any Class under this Section 2.06. Upon any reduction of unused
Commitments of any Class, the Commitment of each Lender of such Class shall be
reduced by such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the amount by which such Commitments
are reduced (other than the termination of the Commitment of any Lender as
provided in Section 3.07). All commitment fees accrued until the effective date
of any termination of the Aggregate Commitments shall be paid on the effective
date of such termination.

      Section 2.07 Repayment of Loans. (a) Term Loans. The Company shall repay
to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Term Lenders on the
last day of each month set forth below the aggregate Dollar Amount of all Term
Loans outstanding in twenty-eight (28) consecutive quarterly installments as
follows (which installments shall be reduced as a result of the application of
prepayments in accordance with the order of priority set forth in Section 2.05):

Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the applicable Revolving Credit
Lenders on the Maturity Date for the Dollar Revolving Credit Facility the
aggregate principal amount of all of its Dollar Revolving Credit Loans

      Section 2.08 Interest. (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.08(b),
(i) each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal
amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the
Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate plus (in the
case of a Eurodollar Rate Loan of any Lender which is lent from a Lending Office
in the United Kingdom or a Participating Member State) the Mandatory Cost; (ii)
each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount
thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base

                                       77
<PAGE>

(iii) each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal
amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to
the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate for Revolving Credit Loans; and (iv) each
Overdraft Facility Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount
thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum set forth in the

applicable to Base Rate Loans).

      (b) Each Borrower shall pay interest on past due amounts hereunder at a
fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to
the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. Accrued and unpaid interest on
past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and
payable upon demand.

      (c) Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each
Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be
specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with
the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the
commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

      Section 2.09 Fees. In addition to certain fees described in Sections
2.03(i) and (j):

      (a) Commitment Fee. The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent for
the account of each (i) Dollar Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with its
Pro Rata Share, a commitment fee equal to the Applicable Rate times the actual
daily amount by which the aggregate Dollar Revolving Credit Commitment exceeds
the Outstanding Amount of Dollar Revolving Credit Loans and (ii) Multicurrency
Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, a commitment fee
equal to the Applicable Rate times the actual daily amount by which the
aggregate Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments exceed the sum of (A) the
Outstanding Amount of Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans and (B) the
Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations; provided that any commitment fee accrued
with respect to any of the Commitments of a Defaulting Lender during the period
prior to the time such Lender became a Defaulting Lender and unpaid at such time
shall not be payable by the Company so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting
Lender except to the extent that such commitment fee shall otherwise have been
due and payable by the Company prior to such time; and provided further that no
commitment fee shall accrue on any of the Commitments of a Defaulting Lender so
long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender. The commitment fee shall
accrue at all times from the date hereof until the Maturity Date, including at
any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article 4 is not met, and
shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each
March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to
occur after the Closing Date, and on the Maturity Date for the applicable
Facility. The commitment fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if
there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the actual daily
amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for
each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect.

      (b) Other Fees. The Company shall pay to the Agents such fees as shall
have been separately agreed upon in writing in the amounts and at the times so
specified. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable
for any reason whatsoever.

                                       78

      Section 2.10 Computation of Interest and Fees. All computations of
interest for Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is determined by JPMorgan Chase
Bank's "prime rate" and for Alternative Currency Loans denominated in Sterling
shall be made on the basis of a year of three hundred and sixty-five (365) or
three hundred and sixty-six (366) days, as the case may be, and actual days
elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis
of a three hundred and sixty (360) day year and actual days elapsed (which
results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on
the basis of a three hundred and sixty-five (365) day year). Interest shall
accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue
on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion
is paid; provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is
made shall, subject to Section 2.12(a), bear interest for one (1) day. Each
determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder
shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

      Section 2.11 Evidence of Indebtedness. (a) The Credit Extensions made by
each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by
such Lender and evidenced by one or more entries in the Register maintained by
the Administrative Agent, acting solely for purposes of Treasury Regulation
Section 5f.103-1(c), as agent for the Borrowers, in each case in the ordinary
course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative
Agent and each Lender shall be prima facie evidence absent manifest error of the
amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to the Borrowers and the
interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so
shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrowers
hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event
of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and
the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters,
the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the
absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the
Administrative Agent, the Borrowers shall execute and deliver to such Lender
(through the Administrative Agent) a Note payable to such Lender, which shall
evidence such Lender's Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each
Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if
applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

      (b) In addition to the accounts and records referred to in Section
2.11(a), each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance
with its usual practice accounts or records and, in the case of the
Administrative Agent, entries in the Register, evidencing the purchases and
sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit, Swing Line Loans
and Overdraft Facility Loans. In the event of any conflict between the accounts
and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records
of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the
Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

      (c) Entries made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register
pursuant to Section 2.11(a) and (b), and by each Lender in its account or
accounts pursuant to Section 2.11(a) and (b), shall be prima facie evidence of
the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and
payable from the Borrowers to, in the case of the Register, each Lender and, in
the case of such account or accounts, such Lender, under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, absent manifest error; provided that the failure of the
Administrative

                                       79
<PAGE>

Agent or such Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is
incorrect, in the Register or such account or accounts shall not limit or
otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents.

      (d) The Overdraft Facility Loans shall be evidenced by one or more
accounts or records maintained by the Overdraft Loan Facility Lender and
evidenced by one or more entries in a register maintained by the Overdraft Loan
Facility Lender, acting solely for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section
5f.103-1(c), as agent for the Borrowers, in each case in the ordinary course of
business. The accounts or records maintained by the Overdraft Loan Facility
Lender shall be prima facie evidence absent manifest error of the amount of the
Overdraft Facility Loans and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to
so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect
the obligation of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries to pay any amount
owing with respect to the Obligations.

      (e) Entries made in good faith by the Overdraft Loan Facility Lender in
its register pursuant to Section 2.11(d) shall be prima facie evidence of the
amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable
from the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries to the Overdraft Loan Facility
Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, absent manifest error;
provided that the failure of the Overdraft Loan Facility Lender to make an
entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in such register shall not
limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiary under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

      Section 2.12 Payments Generally. (a) All payments to be made by the
Borrowers and all payments to be made in respect of the Overdraft Loan Facility
shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense,
recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein and except
with respect to principal of and interest on Loans denominated in an Alternative
Currency, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder shall be made to the
Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such
payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent's Office in Dollars and
in Same Day Funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. Except
as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder
with respect to principal and interest on Loans denominated in an Alternative
Currency shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the
respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable
Administrative Agent's Office in such Alternative Currency and in Same Day Funds
not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent on the
dates specified herein. If, for any reason, any Borrower is prohibited by any
Law from making any required payment hereunder in an Alternative Currency, such
Borrower shall make such payment in Dollars in the Dollar Amount of the
Alternative Currency payment amount. The Administrative Agent will promptly
distribute to each Lender its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as
provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to
such Lender's Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent
(i) after 2:00 p.m., in the case of payments in Dollars, or (ii) after the
Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent in the case of payments in
an Alternative Currency, shall in each case be deemed received on the next
succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to
accrue.

                                       80
<PAGE>

      (b) If any payment to be made by any Borrower shall come due on a day
other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business
Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or
fees, as the case may be; provided that, if such extension would cause payment
of interest on or principal of Eurodollar Rate Loans to be made in the next
succeeding calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately
preceding Business Day.

      (c) Unless any Borrower or any Lender has notified the Administrative
Agent, prior to the date any payment is required to be made by it to the
Administrative Agent hereunder, that such Borrower or such Lender, as the case
may be, will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that
such Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, has timely made such payment
and may (but shall not be so required to), in reliance thereon, make available a
corresponding amount to the Person entitled thereto. If and to the extent that
such payment was not in fact made to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds,
then:

            (i) if any Borrower failed to make such payment, each Lender shall
      forthwith on demand repay to the Administrative Agent the portion of such
      assumed payment that was made available to such Lender in Same Day Funds,
      together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including
      the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to
      such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent
      in Same Day Funds at the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in
      effect; and

            (ii) if any Lender failed to make such payment, such Lender shall
      forthwith on demand pay to the Administrative Agent the amount thereof in
      Same Day Funds, together with interest thereon for the period from the
      date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the
      relevant Borrower to the date such amount is recovered by the
      Administrative Agent (the "COMPENSATION PERIOD") at a rate per annum equal
      to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. When such
      Lender makes payment to the Administrative Agent (together with all
      accrued interest thereon), then such payment amount (excluding the amount
      of any interest which may have accrued and been paid in respect of such
      late payment) shall constitute such Lender's Loan included in the
      applicable Borrowing. If such Lender does not pay such amount forthwith
      upon the Administrative Agent's demand therefor, the Administrative Agent
      may make a demand therefor upon the relevant Borrower, and the relevant
      Borrower shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent, together with
      interest thereon for the Compensation Period at a rate per annum equal to
      the rate of interest applicable to the applicable Borrowing. Nothing
      herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to
      fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Administrative
      Agent or any Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any
      default by such Lender hereunder.

      A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the relevant
Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this Section 2.12(c) shall be
conclusive, absent manifest error.

      (d) If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for
any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of
this Article 2, and such funds

                                       81
<PAGE>

are not made available to the relevant Borrower by the Administrative Agent
because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article 4
are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the
Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from
such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

      (e) The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans and to fund
participations in Letters of Credit, Swing Line Loans and Overdraft Facility
Loans are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or
to fund any such participation on any date required hereunder shall not relieve
any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no
Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its
Loan or purchase its participation.

      (f) Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the
funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a
representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for
any Loan in any particular place or manner.

      (g) Whenever any payment received by the Administrative Agent under this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents is insufficient to pay in full all
amounts due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under or in
respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on any date, such payment
shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent and applied by the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders in the order of priority set forth in
Section 8.04. If the Administrative Agent receives funds for application to the
Obligations of the Loan Parties under or in respect of the Loan Documents under
circumstances for which the Loan Documents do not specify the manner in which
such funds are to be applied, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be
obligated to, elect to distribute such funds to each of the Lenders in
accordance with such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the sum of (a) the Outstanding
Amount of all Loans outstanding at such time and (b) the Outstanding Amount of
all L/C Obligations outstanding at such time, in repayment or prepayment of such
of the outstanding Loans or other Obligations then owing to such Lender.

      Section 2.13 Sharing of Payments. If, other than as expressly provided
elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the Loans made by it, or
the participations in L/C Obligations, in Swing Line Loans or in Overdraft
Facility Loans held by it, any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through
the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) in excess of its ratable
share (or other share contemplated hereunder) thereof, such Lender shall
immediately (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase
from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans made by them and/or such
subparticipations in the participations in L/C Obligations, Swing Line Loans or
in Overdraft Facility Loans held by them, as the case may be, as shall be
necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment in respect
of such Loans or such participations, as the case may be, pro rata with each of
them; provided that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter
recovered from the purchasing Lender under any of the circumstances described in
Section 10.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the
purchasing Lender in its discretion), such purchase shall to that extent be
rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the
purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying
Lender's ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such
paying Lender's required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from
the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount

                                       82
<PAGE>

paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so
recovered, without further interest thereon. Each Borrower agrees that any
Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right
of setoff, but subject to Section 10.09) with respect to such participation as
fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount
of such participation. The Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall
be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations
purchased under this Section 2.13 and will in each case notify the Lenders
following any such purchases or repayments. Each Lender that purchases a
participation pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall from and after such purchase
have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other
communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the
Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were
the original owner of the Obligations purchased.

      Section 2.14 Designation of Overseas Borrower; Termination of
Designations. (a) The Company may from time to time designate any Qualified
Foreign Subsidiary as an additional Overseas Borrower for purposes of this
Agreement by delivering to the Administrative Agent an Election to Participate
duly executed on behalf of such Subsidiary and the Company in such number of
copies as the Administrative Agent may request. The Administrative Agent shall
promptly notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such Election to Participate.
No Qualified Foreign Subsidiary shall be permitted to be an Overseas Borrower
unless (i) it is organized in a jurisdiction in which any other current Overseas
Borrower is organized, (ii) it is organized in a jurisdiction set forth in
Schedule 2.14(a) or (iii) its designation as such has been approved by the
Majority Revolving Credit Lenders.

      (b) The Company may at any time terminate the status of any Subsidiary as
an Overseas Borrower for purposes of this Agreement by delivering to the
Administrative Agent an Election to Terminate duly executed on behalf of such
Subsidiary and the Company in such number of copies as the Administrative Agent
may request. The delivery of such an Election to Terminate shall not affect any
obligation of such Subsidiary theretofore incurred under this Agreement or any
other Loan Document or any rights of the Lenders and the Agents against such
Subsidiary or against the Company in its capacity as guarantor of the
obligations of such Subsidiary. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify
the Lenders of its receipt of any such Election to Terminate.

      Section 2.15 Incremental Credit Extensions. (a) The Company may at any
time or from time to time after the Closing Date, by notice to the
Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver
a copy to each of the Lenders), request (a) one or more additional tranches of
term loans (the "INCREMENTAL TERM LOANS") or (b) one or more increases in the
amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments (each such increase, a "REVOLVING
COMMITMENT INCREASE"), provided that both at the time of any such request and
upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Amendment referred to below, no
Default or Event of Default shall exist and at the time that any such
Incremental Term Loan is made (and after giving effect thereto) no Default or
Event of Default shall exist and the Company shall be in compliance with each of
the covenants set forth in Section 7.11 determined on a Pro Forma Basis as of
the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Company as if such
Incremental Term Loans had been outstanding on the last day of such fiscal
quarter of the Company for testing compliance therewith. Each tranche of
Incremental Term Loans and each Revolving

                                       83
<PAGE>

Commitment Increase shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less
than $25,000,000 (provided that such amount may be less than $25,000,000 if such
amount represents all remaining availability under the limit set forth in the
next sentence). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the aggregate
amount of the Incremental Term Loans and the Revolving Commitment Increases
shall not exceed $100,000,000. The Incremental Term Loans (a) shall rank pari
passu in right of payment and of security with the Revolving Credit Loans and
the Term Loans, (b) shall not mature earlier than the Maturity Date with respect
to the Term Loans (but may have nominal amortization prior to such date) and (c)
except as set forth above, shall be treated substantially the same as (and in
any event no more favorably than) the Term Loans (in each case, including with
respect to mandatory and voluntary prepayments), provided that (i) the terms and
conditions applicable to Incremental Term Loans maturing after the Maturity Date
with respect to the Term Loans may provide for material additional or different
financial or other covenants or prepayment requirements applicable only during
periods after the Maturity Date with respect to the Term Loans and (ii) the
Incremental Term Loans may be priced differently than the Term Loans, provided
further that (i) if the Applicable Rate (which, for such purposes only, shall be
deemed to include all upfront or similar fees or original issue discount payable
to all Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans) relating to any
Incremental Term Loans exceeds the Applicable Rate (which, for such purposes
only, shall be deemed to include all upfront or similar fees or original issue
discount payable to all Lenders providing the Term Loans) relating to the Term
Loans immediately prior to the effectiveness of the applicable Incremental
Amendment by more than 0.25%, the Applicable Rate relating to the Term Loans
shall be adjusted to be equal to the Applicable Rate (which, for such purposes
only, shall be deemed to include all upfront or similar fees or original issue
discount payable to all Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans) relating
to such Incremental Term Loans minus 0.25%. Each notice from the Company
pursuant to this Section shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms
of the relevant Incremental Term Loans or Revolving Commitment Increases.
Incremental Term Loans may be made, and Revolving Commitment Increases may be
provided, by any existing Lender (and each existing Term Lender will have the
right to make a portion of any Incremental Term Loan, and each existing
Revolving Credit Lender will have the right to provide a portion of any
Revolving Commitment Increase, in each case on terms permitted in this section
2.15 and otherwise on terms reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent)
or by any other bank or other financial institution (any such other bank or
other financial institution being called an "ADDITIONAL LENDER"), provided that
the Administrative Agent shall have consented (not to be unreasonably withheld)
to such Lender's or Additional Lender's making such Incremental Term Loans or
providing such Revolving Commitment Increases if such consent would be required
under Section 10.07(b) for an assignment of Loans or Revolving Credit
Commitments, as applicable, to such Lender or Additional Lender. Commitments in
respect of Incremental Term Loans and Revolving Commitment Increases shall
become Commitments (or in the case of a Revolving Commitment Increase to be
provided by an existing Revolving Credit Lender, an increase in such Lender's
applicable Revolving Credit Commitment) under this Agreement pursuant to an
amendment (an "INCREMENTAL AMENDMENT") to this Agreement and, as appropriate,
the other Loan Documents, executed by Holdings, the Company, each Lender
agreeing to provide such Commitment, if any, each Additional Lender, if any, and
the Administrative Agent. The Incremental Amendment may, without the consent of
any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the

                                       84
<PAGE>

Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section. The
effectiveness of any Incremental Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction
on the date thereof (each, an "INCREMENTAL FACILITY CLOSING DATE") of each of
the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (it being understood that all
references to "the date of such Credit Extension" or similar language in such
Section 4.02 shall be deemed to refer to the effective date of such Incremental
Amendment) and such other conditions as the parties thereto shall agree. No more
than four Incremental Facility Closing Dates may be selected by the Company. The
Company will use the proceeds of the Incremental Term Loans and Revolving
Commitment Increases for any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement. No Lender
shall be obligated to provide any Incremental Term Loans or Revolving Commitment
Increases, unless it so agrees. Any Revolving Commitment increase may be
allocated between the Dollar Revolving Credit Facility and the Multicurrency
Revolving Credit Facility as determined by the Company in consultation with the
Administrative Agent. Upon each increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments
pursuant to this Section, (a) if such increase is under the Multicurrency
Revolving Credit Facility, each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender
immediately prior to such increase will automatically and without further act be
deemed to have assigned to each Lender providing a portion of the Revolving
Commitment Increase (each a "REVOLVING COMMITMENT INCREASE LENDER") in respect
of such increase, and each such Revolving Commitment Increase Lender will
automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of
such Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender's participations hereunder in
outstanding Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans such that, after giving
effect to each such deemed assignment and assumption of participations, the
percentage of the aggregate outstanding (i) participations hereunder in Letters
of Credit and (ii) participations hereunder in Swing Line Loans and Overdraft
Facility Loans held by each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender (including
each such Revolving Commitment Increase Lender) will equal the percentage of the
aggregate Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments of all Multicurrency
Revolving Credit Lenders represented by such Multicurrency Revolving Credit
Lender's Revolving Credit Commitment and (b) if, on the date of such increase,
there are any Revolving Credit Loans outstanding under the Facility being
increased, such Revolving Credit Loans shall on or prior to the effectiveness of
such Revolving Commitment Increase be prepaid from the proceeds of additional
Revolving Credit Loans made hereunder (reflecting such increase in Revolving
Credit Commitments), which prepayment shall be accompanied by accrued interest
on the Revolving Credit Loans being prepaid and any costs incurred by any Lender
in accordance with Section 3.05. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby
agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment
requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the
transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

      (b) This Section 2.15 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.13 or
10.01 to the contrary.

      Section 2.16 Overseas Borrower Costs. (a) If the cost to any Lender of
making or maintaining any Loan to an Overseas Borrower (or borrower of an
Overdraft Facility Loan), or issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit for the
account of a Foreign Subsidiary is increased (or the amount of any sum received
or receivable by any Lender or its Lending Office is reduced) by an amount
deemed by such Lender to be material, by reason of the fact that such Overseas
Borrower (or borrower) or Foreign Subsidiary is incorporated in, or conducts
business in, a jurisdiction outside the United States, such Borrower (or
borrower) or Foreign Subsidiary

                                       85
<PAGE>

shall indemnify such Lender for such increased cost or reduction within fifteen
(15) days after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent).
A certificate of such Lender claiming compensation under this Section 2.16 and
setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall
be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

      (b) Each Lender will promptly notify the relevant Overseas Borrower (or
borrower) or Foreign Subsidiary and the Administrative Agent of any event or
circumstance of which it has knowledge that will entitle such Lender to
compensation pursuant to this Section 2.16 and will designate a different
Lending Office, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation will avoid
the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not be
otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

      Section 2.17 Currency Equivalents. (a) The Administrative Agent shall
determine the Dollar Amount of each Alternative Currency Loan, as of the first
day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and, in the case of any such
Interest Period of more than three months, at three-month intervals after the
first day thereof, and shall promptly notify the relevant Borrower and the
Lenders of each Dollar Amount so determined by it. Each such determination shall
be based on the Spot Rate (x) on the date of the related Borrowing Request for
purposes of the initial such determination for any Alternative Currency Loan and
(y) on the fourth Business Day prior to the date as of which such Dollar Amount
is to be determined, for purposes of any subsequent determination.

      (b) The Administrative Agent shall determine the L/C Obligations related
to each Letter of Credit as of the date of issuance thereof and at three-month
intervals after the date of issuance thereof. Each such determination shall be
based on the Spot Rate (i) on the date of the related notice of issuance, in the
case of the initial determination in respect of any Letter of Credit and (ii) on
the fourth Business Day prior to the date as of which such Dollar Amount is to
be determined, in the case of any subsequent determination with respect to an
outstanding Letter of Credit.

      (c) The Overdraft Loan Facility Lender shall determine the Dollar Amount
of each Overdraft Facility Loan from time to time in accordance with its
customary practice. Each such determination shall be based on the Spot Rate.

      (d) If after giving effect to any such determination of a Dollar Amount,
(i) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans
and the L/C Obligations exceeds the aggregate Multicurrency Revolving Credit
Commitments or (ii) the aggregate Dollar Amount of Multicurrency Revolving
Credit Loans which are Alternative Currency Loans and L/C Obligations
denominated in an Alternative Currency exceeds 105% of the Alternative Currency
Sublimit, the Company shall, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of notice
thereof from the Administrative Agent setting forth such calculation in
reasonable detail, prepay or cause to be prepaid outstanding Multicurrency
Revolving Credit Loans (as selected by the Company and notified to the Lenders
through the Administrative Agent not less than three (3) Business Days prior to
the date of prepayment) or take other action (including, in the Company's
discretion, cash collateralization of L/C Obligations or Alternative Currency
Loans in amounts from time to time equal to such excess) to the extent necessary
to eliminate any such excess.

                                       86
<PAGE>

      (e) If after giving effect to any such determination of a Dollar Amount,
the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Overdraft Facility Loans exceeds the
aggregate Overdraft Loan Facility Available Amount the Company shall, within
five (5) Business Days of receipt of notice thereof from the Administrative
Agent or the Overdraft Loan Facility Lender setting forth such calculation in
reasonable detail, prepay or cause to be prepaid outstanding Overdraft Facility
Loans (as selected by the Company) or take other action (including, in the
Company's discretion, cash collateralization of Overdraft Facility Loans in
amounts from time to time equal to such excess) to the extent necessary to
eliminate any such excess.

                                   ARTICLE 3
                TAXES, INCREASED COSTS PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

      Section 3.01 Taxes. (a) Except as provided in this Section 3.01, any and
all payments by any Borrower (the term Borrower under Article 3 being deemed to
include any borrower under an Overdraft Loan Facility and any Foreign Subsidiary
for whose account a Letter of Credit is issued) to or for the account of any
Agent or any Lender under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and
without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies,
imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and all
liabilities (including additions to tax, penalties and interest) with respect
thereto, excluding, in the case of each Agent and each Lender, taxes imposed on
or measured by its net income or overall gross income (including branch
profits), and franchise (and similar) taxes imposed on it in lieu of net income
taxes, by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the Laws
of which such Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, is organized or
maintains a Lending Office, and all liabilities (including additions to tax,
penalties and interest) with respect thereto (all such non-excluded taxes,
duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar
charges, and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as "TAXES"). If any
Borrower shall be required by any Laws to deduct any Taxes or Other Taxes (as
defined in Section 3.01(b)) from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan
Document to any Agent or any Lender, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as
necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions
applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.01), each of such
Agent and such Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received
had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions,
(iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation
authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Laws, and (iv) within
thirty (30) days after the date of such payment, such Borrower shall furnish to
such Agent or Lender (as the case may be) the original or a certified copy of a
receipt evidencing payment thereof to the extent such a receipt is issued
therefor, or other written proof of payment thereof that is reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. If such Borrower fails to pay any
Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to
remit to any Agent or any Lender the required receipts or other required
documentary evidence, such Borrower shall indemnify such Agent and such Lender
for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by such
Agent or such Lender arising out of such failure.

      (b) In addition, each Borrower agrees to pay any and all present or future
stamp, court or documentary taxes and any other excise, property, intangible or
mortgage recording taxes or charges or similar levies which arise from any
payment made under any Loan Document or from

                                       87
<PAGE>

the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement or registration of, or
otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as "OTHER
TAXES").

      (c) Each Borrower agrees to indemnify each Agent and each Lender for (i)
the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes
imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section
3.01) paid by such Agent and such Lender, and (ii) any liability (including
additions to tax, penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with
respect thereto, in each case whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were
correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority;
provided such Agent or Lender, as the case may be, provides such Borrower with a
written statement thereof setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and
calculation of such amounts. Payment under this Section 3.01(c) shall be made
within thirty (30) days after the date such Lender or such Agent makes a demand
therefor.

      (d) No Borrower shall be required pursuant to this Section 3.01 to pay any
additional amount to, or to indemnify, any Lender or Agent, as the case may be,
to the extent that such Lender or such Agent becomes subject to Taxes subsequent
to the Closing Date (or, if later, the date such Lender or Agent becomes a party
to this Agreement) as a result of a change in the place of organization of such
Lender or Agent or a change in the lending office of such Lender, except to the
extent that any such change is requested or required in writing by any Borrower
(and provided that nothing in this clause (d) shall be construed as relieving
any Borrower from any obligation to make such payments or indemnification in the
event of a change in lending office or place of organization that precedes a
change in Law to the extent such Taxes result from a change in Law).

      (e) Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, if a Lender or
an Agent is subject to United States federal withholding tax at a rate in excess
of zero percent at the time such Lender or such Agent, as the case may be, first
becomes a party to this Agreement, withholding tax at such rate shall be
considered excluded from Taxes unless and until such Lender or Agent, as the
case may be, provides the appropriate forms certifying that a lesser rate
applies, whereupon withholding tax at such lesser rate only shall be considered
excluded from Taxes for periods governed by such forms; provided that, if at the
date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which a Lender becomes a party
to this Agreement, the Lender assignor was entitled to payments under clause (a)
of this Section 3.01 in respect of United States withholding tax with respect to
interest paid at such date, then, to such extent, the term Taxes shall include
(in addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the future or other
amounts otherwise includable in Taxes) United States withholding tax, if any,
applicable with respect to the Lender assignee on such date.

      (f) If any Lender or Agent determines, in its reasonable discretion, that
it has received a refund in respect of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which
indemnification or additional amounts have been paid to it by any Borrower
pursuant to this Section 3.01, it shall promptly remit such refund (but only to
the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by any
Borrower under this Section 3.01 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving
rise to such refund plus any interest included in such refund by the relevant
taxing authority attributable thereto) to such Borrower, net of all
out-of-pocket expenses of the Lender or Agent, as the case may be and without
interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant

                                       88
<PAGE>

taxing authority with respect to such refund); provided that such Borrower, upon
the request of the Lender or Agent, as the case may be, agrees promptly to
return such refund to such party in the event such party is required to repay
such refund to the relevant taxing authority. Such Lender or Agent, as the case
may be, shall, at such Borrower's request, provide such Borrower with a copy of
any notice of assessment or other evidence of the requirement to repay such
refund received from the relevant taxing authority (provided that such Lender or
Agent may delete any information therein that such Lender or Agent deems
confidential). Nothing herein contained shall interfere with the right of a
Lender or Agent to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit nor
oblige any Lender or Agent to claim any tax refund or to make available its tax
returns or disclose any information relating to its tax affairs or any
computations in respect thereof or require any Lender or Agent to do anything
that would prejudice its ability to benefit from any other refunds, credits,
reliefs, remissions or repayments to which it may be entitled.

      (g) Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise
to the operation of Section 3.01(a) or (c) with respect to such Lender it will,
if requested by the Company, use commercially reasonable efforts (subject to
such Lender's overall internal policies of general application and legal and
regulatory restrictions) to designate another Lending Office for any Loan or
Letter of Credit affected by such event; provided that such efforts are made on
terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its
Lending Office(s) to suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, and
provided further that nothing in this Section 3.01(g) shall affect or postpone
any of the Obligations of any Borrower or the rights of such Lender pursuant to
Section 3.01(a) and (c).

      Section 3.02 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Law has made it
unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful,
for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund
Eurodollar Rate Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the
Eurodollar Rate, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrowers through
the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue
Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans
shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the
relevant Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no
longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the relevant Borrowers shall upon
demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if
applicable, convert all Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans,
either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may
lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or
promptly, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar
Rate Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, each relevant Borrower shall
also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. Each Lender
agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid
the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such
Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

      Section 3.03 Inability to Determine Rates. If the Required Lenders
determine that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for
determining the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect
to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan, or that the Eurodollar Rate for any
requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan does
not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan,
or that Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank
eurodollar market for the

                                       89
<PAGE>

applicable amount and the Interest Period of such Eurodollar Rate Loan, the
Administrative Agent will promptly so notify each relevant Borrower and each
Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar
Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent (upon the
instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such
notice, each relevant Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing
of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans or, failing that,
will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of
Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

      Section 3.04 Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy; Reserves
on Eurodollar Rate Loans. (a) If any Lender determines that as a result of the
introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any Law, in each
case after the date hereof, or such Lender's compliance therewith, there shall
be any increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making,
funding or maintaining Eurodollar Rate Loans or (as the case may be) issuing or
participating in Letters of Credit, or a reduction in the amount received or
receivable by such Lender in connection with any of the foregoing (excluding for
purposes of this Section 3.04(a) any such increased costs or reduction in amount
resulting from (i) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 3.01 shall govern),
(ii) changes in the basis of taxation of overall net income or overall gross
income (including branch profits), and franchise (and similar) taxes imposed in
lieu of net income taxes, by the United States or any foreign jurisdiction or
any political subdivision of either thereof under the Laws of which such Lender
is organized or maintains a Lending Office, (iii) reserve requirements
contemplated by Section 3.04(c) and (iv) the requirements of the Bank of England
and the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank reflected in
the Mandatory Cost, other than as set forth below) or the Mandatory Cost, as
calculated hereunder, does not represent the cost to such Lender of complying
with the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial Services
Authority or the European Central Bank in relation to its making, funding or
maintaining of Eurodollar Rate Loans, then from time to time upon demand of such
Lender setting forth in reasonable detail such increased costs (with a copy of
such demand to the Administrative Agent given in accordance with Section 3.06),
the Company shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate
such Lender for such increased cost or reduction or, if applicable, the portion
of such cost that is not represented by the Mandatory Cost.

      (b) If any Lender determines that the introduction of any Law regarding
capital adequacy or any change therein or in the interpretation thereof, in each
case after the date hereof, or compliance by such Lender (or its Lending Office)
therewith, has the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such
Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of such
Lender's obligations hereunder (taking into consideration its policies with
respect to capital adequacy and such Lender's desired return on capital), then
from time to time upon demand of such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail
the charge and the calculation of such reduced rate of return (with a copy of
such demand to the Administrative Agent given in accordance with Section 3.06),
the Company shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate
such Lender for such reduction.

      (c) The Company shall pay to each Lender, (i) as long as such Lender shall
be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets
consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as
"EUROCURRENCY LIABILITIES"), additional

                                       90
<PAGE>

interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Loan equal to
the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as
determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive
in the absence of manifest error), and (ii) as long as such Lender shall be
required to comply with any reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement
of any other central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in
respect of the maintenance of the Commitments or the funding of the Eurodollar
Rate Loans, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and
rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the
actual costs allocated to such Commitment or Loan by such Lender (as determined
by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent
manifest error) which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on
which interest is payable on such Loan, provided the Company shall have received
at least fifteen (15) days' prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent) of such additional interest or cost from such Lender. If a Lender fails
to give notice fifteen (15) days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date,
such additional interest or cost shall be due and payable fifteen (15) days from
receipt of such notice.

      (d) The Company shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to
Section 3.04(a), (b) or (c) for any such increased cost or reduction incurred
more than one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the date that such Lender
demands, or notifies the Company of its intention to demand, compensation
therefor; provided that, if the circumstance giving rise to such increased cost
or reduction is retroactive, then such 180-day period referred to above shall be
extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

      (e) If any Lender requests compensation under this Section 3.04, then such
Lender will, if requested by the Company, use commercially reasonable efforts to
designate another Lending Office for any Loan or Letter of Credit affected by
such event; provided that such efforts are made on terms that, in the reasonable
judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its Lending Office(s) to suffer
no material economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, and provided further
that nothing in this Section 3.04(e) shall affect or postpone any of the
Obligations of any Borrower or the rights of such Lender pursuant to Section
3.04(a), (b), (c) or (d).

      Section 3.05 Funding Losses. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Company shall promptly compensate
such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense
incurred by it as a result of:

            (a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan
      other than a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the
      Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by
      reason of acceleration, or otherwise); or

            (b) any failure by any Borrower (for a reason other than the failure
      of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any
      Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by
      such Borrower;

                                       91
<PAGE>

including any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of
funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the
deposits from which such funds were obtained.

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Company to the Lenders under
this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar
Rate Loan made by it at the Eurodollar Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit
or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable
amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Rate Loan was
in fact so funded.

      Section 3.06 Matters Applicable to All Requests for Compensation. (a) Any
Agent or any Lender claiming compensation under this Article 3 shall deliver a
certificate to the Company setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be
paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In
determining such amount, such Agent or such Lender may use any reasonable
averaging and attribution methods.

      (b) With respect to any Lender's claim for compensation under Section
3.01, 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04, no Borrower shall be required to compensate such
Lender for any amount incurred more than one hundred and eighty (180) days prior
to the date that such Lender notifies the relevant Borrowers of the event that
gives rise to such claim. If any Lender requests compensation by the Company
under Section 3.04, the Company may, by notice to such Lender (with a copy to
the Administrative Agent), suspend the obligation of such Lender to make or
continue from one Interest Period to another Eurodollar Rate Loans, or to
convert Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Rate Loans, until the event or condition
giving rise to such request ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions
of Section 3.06(c) shall be applicable); provided that such suspension shall not
affect the right of such Lender to receive the compensation so requested.

      (c) If the obligation of any Lender to make or continue from one Interest
Period to another any Eurodollar Rate Loan, or to convert Base Rate Loans into
Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 3.06(b) hereof,
such Lender's Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be automatically converted into Base
Rate Loans on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for such
Eurodollar Rate Loans (or, in the case of an immediate conversion required by
Section 3.02, on such earlier date as required by Law) and, unless and until
such Lender gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in
Section 3.01, 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04 hereof that gave rise to such conversion no
longer exist:

            (i) to the extent that such Lender's Eurodollar Rate Loans have been
      so converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would
      otherwise be applied to such Lender's Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be
      applied instead to its Base Rate Loans; and

            (ii) all Loans that would otherwise be made or continued from one
      Interest Period to another by such Lender as Eurodollar Rate Loans shall
      be made or continued instead as Base Rate Loans, and all Base Rate Loans
      of such Lender that would otherwise be converted into Eurodollar Rate
      Loans shall remain as Base Rate Loans.

                                       92
<PAGE>

      (d) If any Lender gives notice to the Company (with a copy to the Agent)
that the circumstances specified in Section 3.01, 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04 hereof that
gave rise to the conversion of such Lender's Eurodollar Rate Loans pursuant to
this Section 3.06 no longer exist (which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon
such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when Eurodollar Rate Loans made
by other Lenders are outstanding, such Lender's Base Rate Loans shall be
automatically converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest
Period(s) for such outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans, to the extent necessary so
that, after giving effect thereto, all Loans held by the Lenders holding
Eurodollar Rate Loans and by such Lender are held pro rata (as to principal
amounts, interest rate basis, and Interest Periods) in accordance with their
respective Commitments.

      Section 3.07 Replacement of Lenders under Certain Circumstances. (a) If at
any time (x) any Borrower becomes obligated to pay additional amounts or
indemnity payments described in Section 3.01 or Section 3.04 as a result of any
condition described in such Sections or any Lender ceases to make Eurodollar
Rate Loans as a result of any condition described in Section 3.02 or Section
3.04, (y) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or (z) any Lender becomes a
"NON-CONSENTING LENDER" (as defined below in this Section 3.07), then the
Company may, on ten (10) Business Days' prior written notice to the
Administrative Agent and such Lender, either (i) replace such Lender by causing
such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign pursuant to
Section 10.07(b) (with the assignment fee to be paid by the Company in such
instance) all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more
Eligible Assignees; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any
Lender shall have any obligation to the Company to find a replacement Lender or
other such Person or (ii) terminate the Commitment of such Lender and repay all
obligations of the Borrowers owing to such Lender relating to the Loans and
participations held by such Lender as of such termination date.

      (b) Any Lender being replaced pursuant to Section 3.07(a) above shall (i)
execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such Lender's
Commitment and outstanding Loans and participations in L/C Obligations and Swing
Line Loans, and (ii) deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to the Company or
Administrative Agent. Pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, (i) the
assignee Lender shall acquire all or a portion, as the case may be, of the
assigning Lender's Commitment and outstanding Loans and participations in L/C
Obligations and Swing Line Loans, (ii) all obligations of the Borrowers owing to
the assigning Lender relating to the Loans and participations so assigned shall
be paid in full by the assignee Lender to such assigning Lender concurrently
with such assignment and assumption and (iii) upon such payment and, if so
requested by the assignee Lender, delivery to the assignee Lender of the
appropriate Note or Notes executed by the relevant Borrowers, the assignee
Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and the assigning Lender shall cease to
constitute a Lender hereunder with respect to such assigned Loans, Commitments
and participations, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this
Agreement, which shall survive as to such assigning Lender.

      (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, the Lender
that acts as the L/C Issuer may not be replaced hereunder at any time that it
has any Letter of Credit outstanding hereunder unless arrangements reasonably
satisfactory to such L/C Issuer (including the furnishing of a back-up standby
letter of credit in form and substance, and issued by an issuer reasonably
satisfactory to such L/C Issuer or the depositing of cash collateral into a cash

                                       93
<PAGE>

collateral account in amounts and pursuant to arrangements reasonably
satisfactory to such L/C Issuer) have been made with respect to such outstanding
Letter of Credit and Article 1 the Lender that acts as the Administrative Agent

            (g) The final terms and conditions of each material aspect of the
      acquisition of UGS PLM Solutions shall be (i) as described in the Purchase
      Agreement as in effect on March 12, 2004, in the commitment letter dated
      as of March 12, 2004 among Holdings and the Initial Lenders and in Side
      Letter Agreement Number 1 to UGS PLM Stock Purchase Agreement dated April
      8, 2004, by and among the Parent, the Seller and UGS PLM Solutions, Side

      26, 2004, by and among the Parent, the Seller and UGS PLM Solutions and

      Parent, the Seller and UGS PLM Solutions and (ii) to the extent not
      described in the documents described in clause (i) or in other information
      provided by Holdings to the Initial Lenders prior to March 12, 2004,
      reasonably satisfactory to the Initial Lenders and the Arrangers. The
      Initial Lenders and the Arrangers shall be reasonably satisfied with all
      material agreements, instruments and documents relating to the
      Transaction.

            (h) Prior to or simultaneously with the initial Credit Extensions
      the Company shall have received at least $550,000,000 in gross cash
      proceeds from the issuance of the Senior Subordinated Notes and related

      Lenders; provided that all annual and quarterly financial statement
      information shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP.

            (k) The Arrangers and the Lenders shall have received the Pro Forma
      Balance Sheet. Each Borrower shall also have provided such other financial
      information as the Arrangers may reasonably request in connection with the
      Transactions.

requesting only a conversion of Loans to the other Type or a continuation of

                         REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

      Each of Holdings and the Borrowers represents and warrants to the Agents
and the Lenders that:

      Section 5.01 Existence, Qualification and Power; Compliance with Laws.
Each Loan Party and each of its Subsidiaries (a) is a Person duly organized or

all Laws, orders, writs, injunctions and orders and (e) has all requisite
governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals to operate its
business as currently conducted; except in each case referred to in clause (c),
(d) or (e), to the extent that failure to do so could not reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect.

      Section 5.02 Authorization; No Contravention. The execution, delivery and
performance by each Loan Party of each Loan Document to which such Person is a
party, and the consummation of the Transaction and the Tecnomatix Transaction,
are within such Loan Party's corporate or other powers, have been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational action, and do not
and will not (a) contravene the terms of any of such Person's Organization
Documents, (b) conflict with or result in any breach or contravention of, or the
creation of any Lien under (other than as permitted by Section 7.01), or require
any payment to be made under (i) (x) any Junior Financing Documentation or (y)
any other Contractual Obligation to which such Person is a party or affecting
such Person or the properties of such Person or any of its Subsidiaries or (ii)
any order, injunction, writ or decree of any Governmental Authority or any
arbitral award to which such Person or its property is subject; or (c) violate
any Law; except with respect to any conflict, breach or contravention or payment
(but not creation of Liens) referred to in clause (b)(i), to the extent that
such conflict, breach, contravention or payment could not reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect.

      Section 5.03 Governmental Authorization; Other Consents. No material
approval, consent, exemption, authorization, or other action by, or notice to,
or filing with, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is necessary or
required in connection with (a) the execution, delivery or performance by, or

Document, or for the consummation of the Transaction or the Tecnomatix
Transaction, (b) the grant by any Loan Party of the Liens granted by it pursuant
to the Collateral Documents, (c) the perfection or maintenance of the Liens
created under the Collateral Documents (including the priority thereof) or (d)
the exercise by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of its rights under the
Loan Documents or the remedies in respect of the Collateral pursuant to the
Collateral Documents, except for (i) filings necessary to perfect the Liens on
the Collateral granted by the Loan Parties in favor of the Secured Parties, (ii)
the approvals, consents, exemptions, authorizations, actions, notices and
filings which have been duly obtained, taken, given or made and are in full
force and effect and (iii) those approvals,

                                       99
<PAGE>

consents, exemptions, authorizations or other actions, notices or filings, the
failure of which to obtain or make could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

      Section 5.04 Binding Effect. This Agreement and each other Loan Document
has been duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party that is party thereto.
This Agreement and each other Loan Document constitutes, a legal, valid and
binding obligation of such Loan Party, enforceable against each Loan Party that
is party thereto in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may
be limited by bankruptcy insolvency, reorganization, receivership, moratorium or
other laws affecting creditors' rights generally and by general principles of
equity.

      Section 5.05 Financial Statements; No Material Adverse Effect. (a) (i) The
Audited Financial Statements fairly present in all material respects the
financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the dates thereof
and their results of operations for the period covered thereby in accordance
with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods covered thereby, except as
otherwise expressly noted therein. The consolidated balance sheet of the Company
and its Subsidiaries as of September 30, 2004 and their related consolidated
statements of income and cash flows for the period of nine fiscal months ended
September 2004 fairly present in all material respects the financial condition
of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the date thereof and their results of
operations for the period covered thereby in accordance with GAAP consistently
applied throughout the period covered thereby, except as otherwise expressly
noted therein and subject to the absence of footnotes and year-end audit
adjustments. During the period from September 30, 2004 to and including the
Second Restatement Effective Date, there has been (i) no sale, transfer or other
disposition by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of any material part of
the business or property of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, taken as a
whole and (ii) other than the Tecnomatix Acquisition, no purchase or other
acquisition by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of any business or
property (including any Equity Interests of any other Person) material in
relation to the consolidated financial condition of the Company and its
Subsidiaries, in each case, which is not reflected in the foregoing financial
statements or in the notes thereto or has not otherwise been disclosed in
writing to the Lenders prior to the Second Restatement Effective Date.

            (ii) The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet of the
      Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at March 31, 2004 (including
      the notes thereto) (the "PRO FORMA BALANCE SHEET"), copies of which have
      heretofore been furnished to each Lender, has been prepared giving effect
      (as if such events had occurred on such date) to (i) the consummation of
      the Acquisition, (ii) the Loans to be made and the Senior Subordinated
      Notes to be issued on the Closing Date and the use of proceeds thereof and
      (iii) the payment of fees and expenses in connection with the foregoing.
      The Pro Forma Balance Sheet has been prepared in good faith, based on
      assumptions believed by the Company to be reasonable as of the date of
      delivery thereof, and presents fairly in all material respects on a pro
      forma basis the estimated financial position of the Company and its
      consolidated Subsidiaries as at March 31, 2004, assuming that the events
      specified in the preceding sentence had actually occurred at such date.

            (iii) The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet of the
      Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at December 31, 2004
      (including the notes thereto) (the "PRO FORMA BALANCE SHEET
      (TECNOMATIX)"), copies of which have heretofore been

                                      100
<PAGE>

      furnished to each Lender, has been prepared giving effect (as if such
      events had occurred on such date) to (i) the consummation of the
      Tecnomatix Acquisition, (ii) the Term Loans to be made pursuant to the
      Second Amendment and Restatement Agreement and the use of proceeds thereof
      and (iii) the payment of fees and expenses in connection with the
      foregoing. The Pro Forma Balance Sheet has been prepared in good faith,
      based on assumptions believed by the Company to be reasonable as of the
      date of delivery thereof, and presents fairly in all material respects on
      a proforma basis the estimated financial position of the Company and its
      consolidated Subsidiaries as at December 31, 2004, assuming that the
      events specified in the preceding sentence had actually occurred at such
      date.

      (b) Since September 30, 2004, there has been no event or circumstance,
either individually or in the aggregate, that has had or could reasonably be
expected to have a material adverse effect on the business, operations, assets,
liabilities (actual or contingent) or condition (financial or otherwise) of the
Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

      (c) The forecasts of consolidated balance sheets, income statements and
cash flow statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries for each fiscal year
ending after the Second Restatement Effective Date until the seventh anniversary
of the Second Restatement Effective Date, copies of which have been furnished to
the Administrative Agent and the Lenders prior to the [Second Restatement
Effective] Date in a form reasonably satisfactory to them, have been prepared in
good faith on the basis of the assumptions stated therein, which assumptions
were reasonable in light of the conditions existing at the time of delivery of
such forecasts, it being understood that actual results may vary from such
forecasts and that such variations may be material.

      Section 5.06 Litigation. There are no actions, suits, proceedings, claims
or disputes pending or, to the knowledge of any Borrower, threatened in writing
or contemplated, at law, in equity, in arbitration or before any Governmental
Authority, by or against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or against any
of their properties or revenues that (a) purport to affect or pertain to this
Agreement, any other Loan Document or, as of the Closing Date, the consummation
of the Transaction or the Tecnomatix Transaction, or (b) either individually or
in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

      Section 5.07 No Default. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in
default under or with respect to, or a party to, any Contractual Obligation that
could, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

      Section 5.08 Ownership of Property; Liens. (a) Each Loan Party and each of
its Subsidiaries has good record and marketable title in fee simple to, or valid
leasehold interests in, or easements or other limited property interests in, all
real property necessary in the ordinary conduct of its business, free and clear
of all Liens except for minor defects in title that do not materially interfere
with its ability to conduct its business or to utilize such assets for their
intended purposes and Liens permitted by Section 7.01 and except where the
failure to have such title could not reasonable be expected to have,
individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

                                      101
<PAGE>

      Restricted Subsidiaries and parents shall take the actions to the extent

provided, however, that if such dissolution or liquidation does not occur with
respect to any such Foreign Subsidiary on or prior to the date that is 120 days
after the Closing Date (as such time may be extended by the Administrative
Agent), such Foreign Subsidiary shall take any action required to be taken by it
pursuant to this Section 6.12 and otherwise by this Agreement within a

under any Junior Financing); and (iii) notwithstanding paragraph (a) or (c)
above, no pledge of the Equity Interests of a Foreign Subsidiary or guarantee or
grant of security interests in the assets of a Foreign Subsidiary shall be

materially adverse tax consequences or could otherwise violate applicable law
(as determined by the Administrative Agent acting reasonably and in good faith)
or where the Administrative Agent has determined that the costs of such
guarantee, grant or pledge is excessive in relation to the benefit to the
Lenders of the security to be afforded thereby.

      covered thereby, subject to Liens permitted under Section 7.01 except to
      the extent that any such loss of perfection or priority results from the
      failure of the Administrative Agent to maintain possession of certificates
      actually delivered to it representing securities pledged under the
      Collateral Agreements or to file Uniform Commercial Code continuation
      statements and except as to Collateral consisting of real property to the
      extent that such losses are covered by a lender's title insurance policy
      and the Administrative Agent shall be reasonably satisfied with the credit
      of such insurer, or (ii) any of the Equity Interests of the Company
      ceasing to be pledged pursuant to the Security Agreement free of Liens
      other than Liens created by the Security Agreement; or

            (m) Junior Financing Documentation. (i) Any of the Obligations of
      the Loan Parties under the Loan Documents for any reason shall cease to be
      "Senior Indebtedness" (or any comparable term) or "Senior Secured
      Financing" (or any comparable term) under, and as defined in any Junior
      Financing Documentation or (ii) the subordination provisions set forth in
      any Junior Financing Documentation shall, in whole or in part, cease to be
      effective or cease to be legally valid, binding and enforceable against
      the holders of any Junior Financing, if applicable.

      Section 8.02 Remedies Upon Event of Default. If any Event of Default
occurs and is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall, at the request of, or
may, with the consent of, the Required Lenders, take any or all of the following
actions:

                                      139
<PAGE>

            (a) declare the commitment of each Lender to make Loans and any
      obligation of the L/C Issuer to make L/C Credit Extensions to be
      terminated, whereupon such commitments and obligation shall be terminated;

            (b) declare the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans,
      all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other amounts owing or
      payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to be immediately due
      and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any
      kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers;

            (c) require that the Company Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations
      (in an amount equal to the then Outstanding Amount thereof); and

            (d) exercise on behalf of itself and the Lenders all rights and
      remedies available to it and the Lenders under the Loan Documents or
      applicable Law;

provided that upon the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for
relief with respect to the Company under the Bankruptcy Code of the United
States, the obligation of each Lender to make Loans and any obligation of the
L/C Issuer to make L/C Credit Extensions shall automatically terminate, the
unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans and all interest and other
amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable, and the
obligation of the Company to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations as aforesaid
shall automatically become effective, in each case without further act of the
Administrative Agent or any Lender.

      Section 8.03 Exclusion of Immaterial Subsidiaries. Solely for the purpose
of determining whether a Default has occurred under clause (f) or (g) of Section
8.01, any reference in any such clause to any Restricted Subsidiary or Loan
Party shall be deemed not to include any Subsidiary affected by any event or
circumstances referred to in any such clause that did not, as of the last day of
the most recent completed fiscal quarter of the Company, have assets with a
value in excess of 2% of the consolidated total assets of the Company and its
Subsidiaries or did not, as of the four quarter period ending on the last day of
such fiscal quarter, have revenues exceeding 2% of the total revenues of the
Company and its Subsidiaries (it being agreed that each Subsidiary affected by
any event or circumstance referred to in any such clause shall be considered to
be a single consolidated Subsidiary for purposes of determining whether the
condition specified above is satisfied).

      Section 8.04 Application of Funds. After the exercise of remedies provided
for in Section 8.02 (or after the Loans have automatically become immediately
due and payable and the L/C Obligations have automatically been required to be
Cash Collateralized as set forth in the proviso to Section 8.02), any amounts
received on account of the Obligations shall be applied by the Administrative
Agent in the following order:

            First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting
      fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including Attorney Costs
      payable under Section 10.04 and amounts payable under Article 3) payable
      to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such;

                                       140
<PAGE>

            Second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting
      fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal and interest)
      payable to the Lenders (including Attorney Costs payable under Section
      10.05 and amounts payable under Article 3), ratably among them in
      proportion to the amounts described in this clause Second payable to them;

            Third, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting
      accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans and L/C Borrowings, ratably among
      the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this
      clause Third payable to them;

            Fourth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting
      unpaid principal of the Loans and L/C Borrowings, the termination value
      under Secured Hedge Obligations and, to the extent remaining unpaid after
      application pursuant to clause Third above, the Cash Management
      Obligations, ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective
      amounts described in this clause Fourth held by them;

            Fifth, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C
      Issuer, to Cash Collateralize that portion of L/C Obligations comprised of
      the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit;

            Sixth, to the payment of all other Obligations of the Loan Parties
      that are due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured
      Parties on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts
      of all such Obligations owing to the Administrative Agent and the other
      Secured Parties on such date; and

            Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been
      indefeasibly paid in full, to the Borrowers or as otherwise required by
      Law.

Subject to Section 2.03(c), amounts used to Cash Collateralize the aggregate
undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to clause Fifth above shall be
applied to satisfy drawings under such Letters of Credit as they occur. If any
amount remains on deposit as Cash Collateral after all Letters of Credit have
either been fully drawn or expired, such remaining amount shall be applied to
the other Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above and, if no
Obligations remain outstanding, to the Borrowers.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, amounts received
from any Foreign Subsidiary on account of the Obligations of any Foreign
Subsidiary shall be applied solely to the payment of Obligations of Foreign
Subsidiaries.

                                    ARTICLE 9
                      ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND OTHER AGENTS

      Section 9.01 Appointment and Authorization of Agents. (a) Each Lender
hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes the Administrative Agent
to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and
each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as
are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this

                                       141
<PAGE>

Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are
reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary
contained elsewhere herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative
Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth
herein, nor shall the Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any
fiduciary relationship with any Lender or participant, and no implied covenants,
functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read
into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the
Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence,
the use of the term "agent" herein and in the other Loan Documents with
reference to any Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied
(or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law.
Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended
to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent
contracting parties.

      (b) The L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any
Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and the
L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (i) provided to the
Agents in this Article 9 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by
the L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to
be issued by it and the applications and agreements for letters of credit
pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term "Agent" as used in
this Article 9 and in the definition of "Agent-Related Person" included the L/C
Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (ii) as additionally provided
herein with respect to the L/C Issuer.

      (c) The Administrative Agent shall also act as the "collateral agent"
under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders (in its capacities as a
Lender, Swing Line Lender (if applicable), L/C Issuer (if applicable) and a
potential Hedge Bank) hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the
Administrative Agent to act as the agent of (and to hold any security interest
created by the Collateral Documents for and on behalf of or on trust for) such
Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on
Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Secured
Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably
incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as "collateral
agent" (and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the
Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.02 for purposes of holding or
enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the
Collateral Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at
the direction of the Administrative Agent), shall be entitled to the benefits of
all provisions of this Article 9 (including, without limitation, Section 9.07,
as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the "collateral
agent" under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect
thereto.

      (d) Each Lender (acting for itself and on behalf of each of its Affiliates
which is or becomes a Secured Party from time to time) in its capacities as a
Lender, Swing Line Lender (if applicable), L/C Issuer (if applicable), Overdraft
Loan Facility Lender (if applicable) and a potential Hedge Bank, confirms the
appointment and designation of the Administrative Agent (or any successor
thereto) as the person holding the power of attorney ("FONDE DE POUVOIR") within
the meaning of Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Quebec for the purposes of the
hypothecary security under each deed of hypothec to be granted by any of the
Loan Parties under the laws of the Province of Quebec and, in such capacity, the
Administrative Agent shall hold the hypothecs granted under the laws of the
Province of Quebec as such fonde de pouvoir in the exercise of the

                                      142
<PAGE>

rights conferred thereunder. The execution by the Administrative Agent, as such
fonde de pouvoir prior to the Closing Date of any deed creating or evidencing
any such hypothec is hereby ratified and confirmed. Notwithstanding the
provisions of Section 32 of the Act respecting the special powers of legal
persons (Quebec), the Administrative Agent may acquire and be the holder of any
of the debentures secured by any such hypothec. Each future Lender that becomes
party to this Agreement, by becoming a party to this Agreement, shall be deemed
to have ratified and confirmed (for itself and on behalf of each of its
Affiliates that is or becomes a Secured Party from time to time) the appointment
of the Administrative Agent as fonde de pouvoir.

      Section 9.02 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute
any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including for
purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion
thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents or of exercising any rights and
remedies thereunder) by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact
including for the purpose of any Borrowings or payments in Alternative
Currencies, such sub-agents as shall be deemed necessary by the Administrative
Agent and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or
experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative
Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or
sub-agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence
or willful misconduct.

      Section 9.03 Liability of Agents. No Agent-Related Person shall (a) be
liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in
connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions
contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct
in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein), or (b) be responsible
in any manner to any Lender or participant for any recital, statement,
representation or warranty made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof,
contained herein or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report,
statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the
Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other
Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or
sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the perfection or
priority of any Lien or security interest created or purported to be created
under the Collateral Documents, or for any failure of any Loan Party or any
other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or
thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender
or participant to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of
any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan
Party or any Affiliate thereof.

      Section 9.04 Reliance by Agents. (a) Each Agent shall be entitled to rely,
and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication,
signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit,
letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, electronic mail
message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be
genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person
or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel
to any Loan Party), independent accountants and other experts selected by such
Agent. Each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any
action under any Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or
concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so

                                      143
<PAGE>

requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders
against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason
of taking or continuing to take any such action. Each Agent shall in all cases
be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement
or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the
Required Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be expressly required
hereby in any instance) and such request and any action taken or failure to act
pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders.

      (b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified
in Section 4.01, each Lender that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to
have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document
or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or
acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall
have received notice from such Lender prior to the proposed Closing Date
specifying its objection thereto.

      Section 9.05 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be
deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default, except with
respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to
be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or the
Company referring to this Agreement, describing such Default and stating that
such notice is a "notice of default." The Administrative Agent will notify the
Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. The Administrative Agent shall take
such action with respect to any Event of Default as may be directed by the
Required Lenders in accordance with Article 8; provided that unless and until
the Administrative Agent has received any such direction, the Administrative
Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from
taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default as it shall deem
advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders.

      Section 9.06 Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Agents. Each
Lender acknowledges that no Agent-Related Person has made any representation or
warranty to it, and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any
consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of any Loan
Party or any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation
or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender as to any matter,
including whether Agent-Related Persons have disclosed material information in
their possession. Each Lender represents to each Agent that it has,
independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on
such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own
appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations,
property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties
and their respective Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank or other regulatory
Laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision
to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Company and the other
Loan Parties hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently
and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents
and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its
own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such
investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business,
prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and
creditworthiness of the Company and the other Loan Parties. Except for notices,
reports and

                                      144
<PAGE>

other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by any Agent
herein, such Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any
Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects,
operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any
of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Affiliates which may come into
the possession of any Agent-Related Person.

      Section 9.07 Indemnification of Agents. Whether or not the transactions
contemplated hereby are consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify upon demand
each Agent-Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of any
Loan Party and without limiting the obligation of any Loan Party to do so), pro
rata, and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person from and against any and all
Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it; provided that no Lender shall be liable
for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified
Liabilities resulting from such Agent-Related Person's own gross negligence or
willful misconduct; provided that no action taken in accordance with the
directions of the Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross
negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section 9.07. In the case
of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified
Liabilities, this Section 9.07 applies whether any such investigation,
litigation or proceeding is brought by any Lender or any other Person. Without
limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Administrative
Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses
(including Attorney Costs) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection
with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification,
amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or
otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under,
this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or
referred to herein, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not
reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Company. The undertaking in
this Section 9.07 shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments, the
payment of all other Obligations and the resignation of the Administrative
Agent.

      Section 9.08 Agents in their Individual Capacities. JPMorgan Chase Bank
and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account
of, accept deposits from, acquire Equity Interests in and generally engage in
any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business
with each of the Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates as though JPMorgan
Chase Bank were not the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer hereunder and
without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that,
pursuant to such activities, JPMorgan Chase Bank or its Affiliates may receive
information regarding any Loan Party or its Affiliates (including information
that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Loan Party
or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under
no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Loans,
JPMorgan Chase Bank shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement
as any other Lender and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were
not the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer, and the terms "Lender" and
"Lenders" include JPMorgan Chase Bank in its individual capacity. The provisions
of this Section 9.08 shall apply to the Lender acting as Overdraft Loan Facility
Lender, mutatis mutandis.

      Section 9.09 Successor Agents. The Administrative Agent may resign as the
Administrative Agent upon thirty (30) days' notice to the Lenders. If the
Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall
appoint from among the Lenders a

                                      145
<PAGE>

successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall be consented to by
the Company at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default
under Section 8.01(f) (which consent of the Company shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed). If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective
date of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent
may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the Company, a successor
agent from among the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as
successor agent hereunder, the Person acting as such successor agent shall
succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative
Agent and the term "Administrative Agent," shall mean such successor
administrative agent and/or supplemental administrative agent, as the case may
be, and the retiring Administrative Agent's appointment, powers and duties as
the Administrative Agent shall be terminated. After the retiring Administrative
Agent's resignation hereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of
this Article 9 and Sections 10.04 and 10.05 shall inure to its benefit as to any
actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent
under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as the
Administrative Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following the
retiring Administrative Agent's notice of resignation, the retiring
Administrative Agent's resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective
and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent
hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor
agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the
Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor and upon the execution and filing
or recording of such financing statements, or amendments thereto, and such
amendments or supplements to the Mortgages, and such other instruments or
notices, as may be necessary or desirable, or as the Required Lenders may
request, in order to continue the perfection of the Liens granted or purported
to be granted by the Collateral Documents, the Administrative Agent shall
thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion,
privileges, and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring
Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under
the Loan Documents. After the retiring Administrative Agent's resignation
hereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article 9 shall
continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to
be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent.

      Section 9.10 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the
pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial
proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of
whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and
payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of
whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on any Borrower)
shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or
otherwise:

            (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal
      and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and
      all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other
      documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of
      the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the
      reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
      Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and
      counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent
      under Sections 2.03(i) and (j), 2.09 and 10.04) allowed in such judicial
      proceeding; and

                                      146
<PAGE>

            (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or
      deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or
other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by
each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event
that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments
directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for
the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agents
and their respective agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the
Administrative Agent under Sections 2.09 and 10.04.

      Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative
Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any
plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the
Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent
to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

      Section 9.11 Collateral and Guaranty Matters. The Lenders irrevocably
authorize the Administrative Agent:

            (a) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the
      Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon termination of the
      Aggregate Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than
      (x) obligations under Secured Hedge Agreements, (y) Cash Management
      Obligations not yet due and payable and (z) contingent indemnification
      obligations not yet accrued and payable) and the expiration or termination
      of all Letters of Credit, (ii) that is transferred or to be transferred as
      part of or in connection with any transfer permitted hereunder or under
      any other Loan Document to any Person other than Holdings, the Company or
      any of its Domestic Subsidiaries that are Restricted Subsidiaries, (iii)
      subject to Section 10.01, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing
      by the Required Lenders, or (iv) owned by a Guarantor upon release of such
      Guarantor from its obligations under its Guaranty pursuant to clause (c)
      below;

            (b) to release or subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or
      held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of
      any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 7.01(i); and

            (c) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty
      if such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of a
      transaction or designation permitted hereunder; provided that no such
      release shall occur if such Guarantor continues to be a guarantor in
      respect of any Junior Financing.

      Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders
will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent's authority to release its
interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor
from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 9.11. In each
case as specified in this Section 9.11, the Administrative Agent will, at the
Company's expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such

                                      147
<PAGE>

documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of
such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under
the Collateral Documents, or to release such Guarantor from its obligations
under the Guaranty, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan
Documents and this Section 9.11.

      Section 9.12 Other Agents; Arrangers and Managers. None of the Lenders or
other Persons identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement
as a "syndication agent," "co-documentation agent", "joint bookrunner,"
"arranger" or "joint lead arranger" shall have any right, power, obligation,
liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those
applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the
Lenders or other Persons so identified shall have or be deemed to have any
fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not
relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders or other Persons so identified
in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action
hereunder.

      Section 9.13 Appointment of Supplemental Administrative Agents. (a) It is
the purpose of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that there shall be
no violation of any Law of any jurisdiction denying or restricting the right of
banking corporations or associations to transact business as agent or trustee in
such jurisdiction. It is recognized that in case of litigation under this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and in particular in case of the
enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, or in case the Administrative Agent
deems that by reason of any present or future Law of any jurisdiction it may not
exercise any of the rights, powers or remedies granted herein or in any of the
other Loan Documents or take any other action which may be desirable or
necessary in connection therewith, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized
to appoint an additional individual or institution selected by the
Administrative Agent in its sole discretion as a separate trustee, co-trustee,
administrative agent, collateral agent, administrative sub-agent or
administrative co-agent (any such additional individual or institution being
referred to herein individually as a "SUPPLEMENTAL ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT" and
collectively as "SUPPLEMENTAL ADMINISTRATIVE AGENTS").

      (b) In the event that the Administrative Agent appoints a Supplemental
Administrative Agent with respect to any Collateral, (i) each and every right,
power, privilege or duty expressed or intended by this Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to the
Administrative Agent with respect to such Collateral shall be exercisable by and
vest in such Supplemental Administrative Agent to the extent, and only to the
extent, necessary to enable such Supplemental Administrative Agent to exercise
such rights, powers and privileges with respect to such Collateral and to
perform such duties with respect to such Collateral, and every covenant and
obligation contained in the Loan Documents and necessary to the exercise or
performance thereof by such Supplemental Administrative Agent shall run to and
be enforceable by either the Administrative Agent or such Supplemental
Administrative Agent, and (ii) the provisions of this Article 9 and of Section
9.07 (obligating the Company to pay the Administrative Agent's expenses and to
indemnify the Administrative Agent) that refer to the Administrative Agent shall
inure to the benefit of such Supplemental Administrative Agent and all
references therein to the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be references
to the Administrative Agent and/or such Supplemental Administrative Agent, as
the context may require.

                                      148

      (c) Should any instrument in writing from the Company, Holdings or any
other Loan Party be required by any Supplemental Administrative Agent so
appointed by the Administrative Agent for more fully and certainly vesting in
and confirming to him or it such rights, powers, privileges and duties, the
Company or Holdings, as applicable, shall, or shall cause such Loan Party to,
execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments promptly upon
request by the Administrative Agent. In case any Supplemental Administrative
Agent, or a successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or
be removed, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Supplemental
Administrative Agent, to the extent permitted by Law, shall vest in and be
exercised by the Administrative Agent until the appointment of a new
Supplemental Administrative Agent.

                                   ARTICLE 10
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

      Section 10.01 Amendments, Etc. Except as otherwise set forth in this
Agreement, no amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, and no consent to any departure by the Company or any other
Loan Party therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing signed by the
Required Lenders and the Company or the applicable Loan Party, as the case may
be, and each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided that, no such
amendment, waiver or consent shall:

            (a) extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender without the
      written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby (it being
      understood that a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in or the
      waiver of any Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of the
      Commitments shall not constitute an extension or increase of any
      Commitment of any Lender);

            (b) postpone any date scheduled for any payment of principal or
      interest under Section 2.07 or 2.08 without the written consent of each
      Lender directly affected thereby, it being understood that the waiver of
      any mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans shall not constitute a
      postponement of any date scheduled for the payment of principal or
      interest;

            (c) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified
      herein on, any Loan or L/C Borrowing, or (subject to clause (iii) of the
      second proviso to this Section 10.01) any fees or other amounts payable
      hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of
      each Lender directly affected thereby, it being understood that any change
      to the definition of Leverage Ratio or in the component definitions
      thereof shall not constitute a reduction in the rate; provided that, only
      the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to amend the
      definition of "Default Rate" or to waive any obligation of the Borrowers
      to pay interest at the Default Rate;

            (d) change any provision of this Section 10.01, the definition of
      "Required Lenders" or Section 2.06(c) without the written consent of each
      Lender;

                                      149
<PAGE>

            (e) other than in a transaction permitted under Section 7.05,
      release all or substantially all of the Collateral in any transaction or
      series of related transactions, without the written consent of each
      Lender; or

            (f) other than in connection with a transaction permitted under
      Section 7.04 or 7.05, release all or substantially all of the value of the
      Guaranty, without the written consent of each Lender;

and provided further that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in
writing and signed by the L/C Issuer in addition to the Lenders required above,
affect the rights or duties of the L/C Issuer under this Agreement or any Letter
of Credit Application relating to any Letter of Credit issued or to be issued by
it; (ii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by
the Swing Line Lender in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the
rights or duties of the Swing Line Lender under this Agreement; (iii) no
amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the
Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the
rights or duties of, or any fees or other amounts payable to, the Administrative
Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (iv) Section 10.07(h) may
not be amended, waived or otherwise modified without the consent of each
Granting Lender all or any part of whose Loans are being funded by an SPC at the
time of such amendment, waiver or other modification; and (v) the Administrative
Agent Fee Letter may be amended, or rights or privileges thereunder waived, in a
writing executed only by the parties thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or
disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the
Commitment of such Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent
of such Lender (it being understood that any Commitments or Loans held or deemed
held by any Defaulting Lender shall be excluded for a vote of the Lenders
hereunder requiring any consent of the Lenders).

      Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended
and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the
Administrative Agent, Holdings and the Borrowers (a) to add one or more
additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of
credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and
fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents with the Term Loans and the Revolving Credit Loans and
the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (b) to include
appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of
the Required Lenders.

      In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended
with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, Holdings, the Borrowers
and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Term Loans (as defined below)
to permit the refinancing of all outstanding Term Loans ("REFINANCED TERM
LOANS") with a replacement term loan tranche hereunder ("REPLACEMENT TERM
LOANS"); provided that (a) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement
Term Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Refinanced
Term Loans, (b) the Applicable Margin for such Replacement Term Loans shall not
be higher than the Applicable Margin for such Refinanced Term Loans, (c) the
Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Replacement Term Loans shall not be
shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans
at the time of such

                                      150
<PAGE>

refinancing (except to the extent of nominal amortization for periods where
amortization has been eliminated as a result of prepayment of the Term Loans)
and (d) all other terms applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall be
substantially identical to, or less favorable to the Lenders providing such
Replacement Term Loans than, those applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans,
except to the extent necessary to provide for covenants and other terms
applicable to any period after the latest final maturity of the Term Loans in
effect immediately prior to such refinancing.

      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.01, if
the Borrowers request that this Agreement be modified or amended in a manner
that would require the unanimous consent of all of the Lenders and such
modification or amendment is agreed to by the Super-Majority Lenders (as
hereinafter defined), then with the consent of the Borrowers and the
Super-Majority Lenders, the Borrowers and the Super-Majority Lenders shall be
permitted to amend the Agreement without the consent of the Lender or Lenders
that did not agree to the modification or amendment requested by the Borrowers
(such Lender or Lenders, collectively the "MINORITY Lenders") to provide for (w)
the termination of the Commitment of each of the Minority Lenders, (x) the
addition to this Agreement of one or more other financial institutions (each of
which shall be an Eligible Assignee), or an increase in the Commitment of one or
more of the Super-Majority Lenders (with the written consent thereof), so that
the total Commitment after giving effect to such amendment shall be in the same
amount as the total Commitment immediately before giving effect to such
amendment, (y) if any Loans are outstanding at the time of such amendment, the
making of such additional Loans by such new financial institutions or
Super-Majority Lender or Lenders, as the case may be, as may be necessary to
repay in full, at par, the outstanding Loans of the Minority Lenders immediately
before giving effect to such amendment and (z) such other modifications to this
Agreement as may be appropriate to effect the foregoing clauses (w), (x) and
(y). As used herein, the term "SUPER-MAJORITY LENDERS" shall have the same
meaning as "Required Lenders" except that the phrase "50%" set forth therein
shall be replaced by the phrase "66-2/3%".

      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.01, the
terms of the Overdraft Loan Facility may be amended and waived with the consent
of the Administrative Agent, the Overdraft Loan Facility Lender and the Company
without the need to obtain the consent of any other Lender provided that the
consent of the Majority Revolving Credit Lenders shall be required for (i) any
amendment or waiver to the Overdraft Loan Facility which reduces the interest
rate on Overdraft Facility Loans to interest rates lower than those provided for
Base Rate Loans set forth in this Agreement or (ii) any amendment or waiver to
the Overdraft Loan Facility after the Overdraft Participation Date.

      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.01,
guarantees, collateral security documents and related documents executed by
Foreign Subsidiaries in connection with this Agreement may be in a form
reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and may be, together with this
Agreement, amended and waived with the consent of the Administrative Agent at
the request of the Company without the need to obtain the consent of any other
Lender if such amendment or waiver is delivered in order (i) to comply with
local law or advice of local counsel, (ii) to cure ambiguities or defects or
(iii) to cause such guarantee, collateral security document or other document to
be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

      Section 10.02 Notices and Other Communications; Facsimile Copies. (a)
General. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other
communications provided for hereunder or any other Loan Document shall be in
writing (including by facsimile transmission). All such written notices shall be
mailed, faxed or delivered to the applicable address, facsimile number or
(subject to Section 10.02(c)) electronic mail address, and all notices and other
communications expressly permitted hereunder to be given by telephone shall be
made to the applicable telephone number, as follows:

            (i) if to any Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or
      the Swing Line Lender, to the address, facsimile number, electronic mail
      address or telephone number specified for such Person on Schedule 10.02 or
      to such other address, facsimile number, electronic mail address or
      telephone number as shall be designated by such party in a notice to the
      other parties; and

            (ii) if to any other Lender, to the address, facsimile number,
      electronic mail address or telephone number specified in its
      Administrative Questionnaire or to such other address, facsimile number,
      electronic mail address or telephone number as shall be designated by such
      party in a notice to the Company, the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer
      and the Swing Line Lender.

All such notices and other communications shall be deemed to be given or made
upon the earlier to occur of (i) actual receipt by the relevant party hereto and
(ii) (A) if delivered by hand or by courier, when signed for by or on behalf of
the relevant party hereto; (B) if delivered by mail, four (4) Business Days
after deposit in the mails, postage prepaid; (C) if delivered by facsimile, when
sent and receipt has been confirmed by telephone; and (D) if delivered by
electronic mail (which form of delivery is subject to the provisions of Section
10.02(c)), when delivered; provided that notices and other communications to the
Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender pursuant to
Article 2 shall not be effective until actually received by such Person. In no
event shall a voice mail message be effective as a notice, communication or
confirmation hereunder.

      (b) Effectiveness of Facsimile Documents and Signatures. Loan Documents
may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile. The effectiveness of any such
documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable Law, have the same force
and effect as manually signed originals and shall be binding on all Loan
Parties, the Agents and the Lenders. The Administrative Agent may also require
that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually signed
original thereof; provided that the failure to request or deliver the same shall
not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature.

      (c) Limited Use of Electronic Mail. Electronic mail and Internet and
intranet websites may be used only to distribute routine communications, such as
financial statements and other information as provided in Section 6.02, and to
distribute Loan Documents for execution by the parties thereto, and may not be
used for any other purpose.

      (d) Reliance by Agents and Lenders. The Administrative Agent and the
Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic
Committed Loan Notices and Swing Line Loan Notices) purportedly given by or on
behalf of any Borrower even if (i) such

                                      152
<PAGE>

notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not
preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the
terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation
thereof. The Borrowers shall indemnify each Agent-Related Person and each Lender
from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by
such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrowers in
the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct. All telephonic notices to
the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each
of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.

      (e) Designation by Overseas Borrowers. Each Overseas Borrower hereby
designates the Company as its representative and agent on its behalf for the
purposes of giving and receiving all notices (other than Borrowing Requests and
requests for the issuance of Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.03) and any
other documentation required to be delivered to it pursuant to this Agreement
and any other Loan Document by the Administrative Agent or any Lender. The
Company hereby accepts such appointment. The Agents and the Lenders may regard
any notice (other than Borrowing Requests and requests for the issuance of
Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.03) or other communication pursuant to
any Loan Document from the Company as a notice or communication from all
Borrowers, and may give any notice or communication required or permitted to be
given to any Overseas Borrower or Overseas Borrowers hereunder to the Company on
behalf of such Overseas Borrower or Overseas Borrowers. Each Overseas Borrower
agrees that each notice, election, representation and warranty, covenant,
agreement and undertaking made on its behalf by the Company shall be deemed for
all purposes to have been made by such Overseas Borrower and shall be binding
upon and enforceable against such Overseas Borrower to the same extent as if the
same had been made directly by such Overseas Borrower.

      Section 10.03 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by any Lender or
the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in
exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other
Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other
or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or
privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided, and
provided under each other Loan Document, are cumulative and not exclusive of any
rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by Law.

      Section 10.04 Attorney Costs, Expenses and Taxes. The Company agrees (a)
to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent, the
Co-Documentation Agents and the Arrangers for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs
and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation,
syndication and execution of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and
any amendment, waiver, consent or other modification of the provisions hereof
and thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated thereby are
consummated), and the consummation and administration of the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby, including all Attorney Costs of Simpson Thacher
& Bartlett LLP, and (b) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent, the
Syndication Agent, the Co-Documentation Agents, the Arrangers and each Lender
for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the
enforcement of any rights or remedies under this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents (including, without limitation, all such costs and expenses incurred
during any legal proceeding,

                                      153
<PAGE>

including any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law, and including all Attorney
Costs of counsel to the Administrative Agent). The foregoing costs and expenses
shall include all search, filing, recording, title insurance and appraisal
charges and fees and taxes related thereto, and other (reasonable, in the case
of Section 10.04(a)) out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Agent. All amounts
due under this Section 10.04 shall be paid promptly. The agreements in this
Section 10.04 shall survive the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and
repayment of all other Obligations. If any Loan Party fails to pay when due any
costs, expenses or other amounts payable by it hereunder or under any Loan
Document, such amount may be paid on behalf of such Loan Party by the
Administrative Agent or any Lender, in its sole discretion.

      Section 10.05 Indemnification by the Company. Whether or not the
transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Company shall indemnify
and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person, each Lender (including the
Overdraft Loan Facility Lender) and their respective Affiliates, directors,
officers, employees, counsel, agents and attorneys-in-fact (collectively the
"INDEMNITEES") from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses
and disbursements (including Attorney Costs) of any kind or nature whatsoever
which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such
Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of or in connection with (a)
the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance or administration of any Loan
Document or any other agreement, letter or instrument delivered in connection
with the transactions contemplated thereby or the consummation of the
transactions contemplated thereby, (b) any Commitment, Loan or Letter of Credit
or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by
the L/C Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the
documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with
the terms of such Letter of Credit), or (c) any actual or alleged presence or
release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property currently or formerly
owned or operated by the Company, any Subsidiary or any other Loan Party, or any
Environmental Liability related in any way to the Company, any Subsidiary or any
other Loan Party, or (d) any actual or prospective claim, litigation,
investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on
contract, tort or any other theory (including any investigation of, preparation
for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim, investigation, litigation or
proceeding) and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto (all the
foregoing, collectively, the "INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES"), in all cases, whether
or not caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out of the negligence of the
Indemnitee; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be
available to the extent that such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such
Indemnitee as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use
by others of any information or other materials obtained through IntraLinks or
other similar information transmission systems in connection with this
Agreement, nor shall any Indemnitee or any Loan Party have any liability for any
special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages relating to this Agreement
or any other Loan Document or arising out of its activities in connection
herewith or therewith (whether before or after the Closing Date). In the case of
an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this
Section 10.05 applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such
investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Loan Party, its
directors, shareholders or creditors or an Indemnitee or any other Person,
whether or not any Indemnitee is otherwise a party thereto and whether or

                                      154
<PAGE>

not any of the transactions contemplated hereunder or under any of the other
Loan Documents is consummated. All amounts due under this Section 10.05 shall be
paid within ten Business Days after demand therefor; provided, however, that
such Indemnitee shall promptly refund such amount to the extent that there is a
final judicial or arbitral determination that such Indemnitee was not entitled
to indemnification or contribution rights with respect to such payment pursuant
to the express terms of this Section 10.05. The agreements in this Section 10.05
shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the replacement of
any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment,
satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations.

      Section 10.06 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on
behalf of the Company is made to any Agent or any Lender, or any Agent or any
Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such
setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be
fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any
settlement entered into by such Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be
repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any
proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of
such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be
satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such
payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender
severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable
share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by any Agent, plus interest
thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate
per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect.

      Section 10.07 Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement
shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that neither Holdings
nor any Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or
obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender and no
Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations
hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee, (ii) by way of participation in
accordance with the provisions of Section 10.07(e), (iii) by way of pledge or
assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section
10.07(g) or (iv) to an SPC in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.07(h)
(and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be
null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be
construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their
respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent
provided in Section 10.07(e) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby,
the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by
reason of this Agreement.

      (b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below,
any Lender may assign to one or more assignees ("Assignees") all or a portion of
its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of
its Commitment and the Loans (including for purposes of this Section 10.07(b),
participations in L/C Obligations, in Swing Line Loans and in Overdraft Facility
Loans) at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not
to be unreasonably withheld) of:

<PAGE>

                        (A) the Company, provided that no consent of the Company
                  shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate
                  of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default has
                  occurred and is continuing, any Assignee;

                        (B) the Administrative Agent, provided that no consent
                  of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an
                  assignment (i) of all or any portion of a Term Loan to a
                  Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or (ii)
                  to an Agent or an Affiliate of an Agent; and

                        (C) the L/C Issuer, provided that no consent of the L/C
                  Issuer shall be required for any assignment of a Term Loan or
                  any assignment to an Agent or an Affiliate of an Agent.

            (ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional
      conditions:

                        (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or
                  an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire
                  remaining amount of the assigning Lender's Commitment or Loans
                  of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the
                  assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined
                  as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to
                  such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent)
                  shall not be less than $5,000,000 (in the case of each
                  Revolving Credit Facility), or $1,000,000 (in the case of a
                  Term Loan) unless each of the Company and the Administrative
                  Agent otherwise consent, provided that (1) no such consent of
                  the Company shall be required if an Event of Default under
                  Section 8.01(a) or (f) has occurred and is continuing and (2)
                  such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and
                  its Affiliates or Approved Funds, if any;

                        (B) the parties to each assignment shall execute and
                  deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and
                  Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of
                  $3,500; provided that only one such $3,500 fee shall be paid
                  in respect of all assignments to a Lender or its Affiliates on
                  any single day by a single Approved Fund and its Affiliates;
                  and

                        (C) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall
                  deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative
                  questionnaire in the form requested by the Administrative
                  Agent.

      This paragraph (b) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a
portion of its rights and obligations among separate Facilities on a non-pro
rata basis.

      (c) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative
Agent pursuant to Section 10.07(d), from and after the effective date specified
in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a
party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such
Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and

                                      156
<PAGE>

obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender
thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and
Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the
case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender's
rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a
party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01,
3.04, 3.05, 10.04 and 10.05 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring
prior to the effective date of such assignment). Upon request, and the surrender
by the assigning Lender of its Note, the relevant Borrower (at its expense)
shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or
transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not
comply with this clause (c) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a
sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in
accordance with Section 10.07(e).

      (d) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent
of the Borrowers, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent's Office a copy of
each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the
recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of,
and principal amounts (and related interest amounts) of the Loans, L/C
Obligations (specifying the Unreimbursed Amounts), L/C Borrowings and amounts
due under Section 2.03, owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from
time to time (the "REGISTER"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive,
absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Agents and the Lenders shall treat
each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof
as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice
to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by any Borrower,
any Agent and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon
reasonable prior notice.

      (e) Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the
Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other
than a natural person) (each, a "PARTICIPANT") in all or a portion of such
Lender's rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a
portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender's
participations in L/C Obligations and/or Swing Line Loans) owing to it);
provided that (i) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain
unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties
hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrowers, the
Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with
such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this
Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a
participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to
enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any
amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide
that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any
amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to
Section 10.01 that directly affects such Participant. Subject to Section
10.07(f), the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the
benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 to the same extent as if it were a
Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.07(c)
but shall not be entitled to recover greater amounts under such Sections than
the selling Lender would be entitled to recover. To the extent permitted by law,
each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.09 as
though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to
Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender.

                                      157
<PAGE>

      (f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment
under Section 3.01, 3.04 or 3.05 than the applicable Lender would have been
entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant,
unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the
relevant Borrower's prior written consent. A Participant shall not be entitled
to the benefits of Section 3.01 unless the relevant Borrower is notified of the
participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the
benefit of the relevant Borrower, to comply with Section 10.15 as though it were
a Lender.

      (g) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all
or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if
any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to
secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or
assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or
substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

      (h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender
(a "GRANTING LENDER") may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle identified
as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the
Administrative Agent and the relevant Borrower (an "SPC") the option to provide
all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be
obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein
shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Loan, and (ii) if an SPC
elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of
such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to
the terms hereof. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) neither the grant to
any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the costs or
expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of the relevant
Borrower under this Agreement (including its obligations under Section 3.01,
3.04 or 3.05), (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment
obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender would be liable, and (iii)
the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including the approval of any
amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document,
remain the lender of record hereunder. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder
shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as
if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior
consent of the relevant Borrower and the Administrative Agent and with the
payment of a processing fee of $3,500, assign all or any portion of its right to
receive payment with respect to any Loan to the Granting Lender and (ii)
disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its
funding of Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of
any surety or Guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

      (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (1) any
Lender may in accordance with applicable law create a security interest in all
or any portion of the Loans owing to it and the Note, if any, held by it and (2)
any Lender that is a Fund may create a security interest in all or any portion
of the Loans owing to it and the Note, if any, held by it to the trustee for
holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such Fund as security for
such obligations or securities; provided that unless and until such trustee
actually becomes a Lender in compliance with the other provisions of this
Section 10.07, (i) no such pledge shall release the pledging Lender from any of
its obligations under the Loan Documents and (ii) such trustee shall

                                      158
<PAGE>

not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of a Lender under the Loan
Documents even though such trustee may have acquired ownership rights with
respect to the pledged interest through foreclosure or otherwise.

      (j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, JPMorgan
Chase Bank may, upon thirty (30) days' notice to the Company and the Lenders,
resign as L/C Issuer and/or Swing Line Lender; provided that on or prior to the
expiration of such 30-day period with respect to JPMorgan Chase Bank's
resignation as L/C Issuer, JPMorgan Chase Bank shall have identified a successor
L/C Issuer reasonably acceptable to the Company willing to accept its
appointment as successor L/C Issuer. In the event of any such resignation as L/C
Issuer or Swing Line Lender, the Company shall be entitled to appoint from among
the Lenders willing to accept such appointment a successor L/C Issuer or Swing
Line Lender hereunder; provided that no failure by the Company to appoint any
such successor shall affect the resignation of JPMorgan Chase Bank as L/C Issuer
or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, except as expressly provided above. If
JPMorgan Chase Bank resigns as L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights and
obligations of the L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit
outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as L/C Issuer and all
L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders
to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts
pursuant to Section 2.03(c)). If JPMorgan Chase Bank resigns as Swing Line
Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for
hereunder with respect to Swing Line Loans made by it and outstanding as of the
effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders
to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Line
Loans pursuant to Section 2.04(c).

      Section 10.08 Confidentiality. Each of the Agents and the Lenders agrees
to maintain the confidentiality of the Information, except that Information may
be disclosed (a) to its directors, officers, employees and agents, including
accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the
Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential
nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information
confidential); (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority; (c) to
the extent required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or
similar legal process; (d) to any other party to this Agreement; (e) subject to
an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this
Section 10.08 (or as may otherwise be reasonably acceptable to the Company), to
any Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee
of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement; (f)
with the written consent of the Company; (g) to the extent such Information
becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section
10.08; (h) to any state, Federal or foreign authority or examiner (including the
National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any other similar
organization) regulating any Lender; or (i) to any rating agency when required
by it (it being understood that, prior to any such disclosure, such rating
agency shall undertake to preserve the confidentiality of any Information
relating to the Loan Parties received by it from such Lender). In addition, the
Agents and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and
information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service
providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the Agents and the
Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement,
the other Loan Documents, the Commitments, and the Credit Extensions. For the
purposes of this Section 10.08, "INFORMATION" means all information received
from any Loan Party relating to any Loan Party

                                      159
<PAGE>

or its business, other than any such information that is publicly available to
any Agent or any Lender prior to disclosure by any Loan Party other than as a
result of a breach of this Section 10.08; provided that, in the case of
information received from a Loan Party after the date hereof, such information
is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential or (ii) is
delivered pursuant to Section 6.01, 6.02 or 6.03 hereof.

      Section 10.09 Setoff. In addition to any rights and remedies of the
Lenders provided by Law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any
Event of Default, each Lender and its Affiliates is authorized at any time and
from time to time, without prior notice to the Company or any other Loan Party,
any such notice being waived by the Company (on its own behalf and on behalf of
each Loan Party and its Subsidiaries) to the fullest extent permitted by Law, to
set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand,
provisional or final) at any time held by, and other Indebtedness at any time
owing by, such Lender and its Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of
the respective Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries against any and all
Obligations owing to such Lender and its Affiliates hereunder or under any other
Loan Document, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not such
Agent or such Lender or Affiliate shall have made demand under this Agreement or
any other Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or
unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable
deposit or Indebtedness; provided that, in the case of any such deposits or
other Indebtedness for the credit or the account of any Foreign Subsidiary, such
set off may only be against any Obligations of Foreign Subsidiaries. Each Lender
agrees promptly to notify the Company and the Administrative Agent after any
such set off and application made by such Lender; provided, that the failure to
give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.
The rights of the Administrative Agent and each Lender under this Section 10.09
are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation,
other rights of setoff) that the Administrative Agent and such Lender may have.
Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary,
in no event shall the assets of any Foreign Subsidiary that is not a Loan Party
constitute collateral security for payment of the Obligations of the Company or
any Domestic Subsidiary, it being understood that (a) the Equity Interests of
any Foreign Subsidiary that is not a Loan Party do not constitute such an asset
and (b) the provisions hereof shall not limit, reduce or otherwise diminish in
any respect the Borrowers' obligations to make any mandatory prepayment pursuant
to Section 2.05(b)(ii), it being understood that the foregoing provisions of
this sentence shall not limit any rights or remedies which any Lender or its
Affiliates may have with respect to the Overdraft Loan Facility.

      Section 10.10 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid
under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious
interest permitted by applicable Law (the "MAXIMUM RATE"). If any Agent or any
Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the
excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds
such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrowers. In determining whether the
interest contracted for, charged, or received by an Agent or a Lender exceeds
the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law,
(a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or
premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects
thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or

                                      160
<PAGE>

unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of
the Obligations hereunder.

      Section 10.11 Counterparts. This Agreement and each other Loan Document
may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an
original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same
instrument. Delivery by telecopier of an executed counterpart of a signature
page to this Agreement and each other Loan Document shall be effective as
delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement and such other
Loan Document. The Agents may also require that any such documents and
signatures delivered by telecopier be confirmed by a manually signed original
thereof; provided that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not
limit the effectiveness of any document or signature delivered by telecopier.

      Section 10.12 Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Loan
Documents, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on the
subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written
or oral, on such subject matter. In the event of any conflict between the
provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the
provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion of
supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Agents or the Lenders in any
other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each
Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties
thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but
rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof.

      Section 10.13 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All
representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or
other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or
therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such
representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by each Agent
and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by any Agent or any Lender
or on their behalf and notwithstanding that any Agent or any Lender may have had
notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and
shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other
Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit
shall remain outstanding.

      Section 10.14 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, the
legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired
thereby. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not
invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

      Section 10.15 Tax Forms. Each Lender and Agent that is not a "United
States person" within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (each, a
"FOREIGN LENDER") shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent, on
or prior to the date which is ten (10) Business Days after the Closing Date (or
upon accepting an assignment of an interest herein), two duly signed, properly
completed copies of either IRS Form W-8BEN or any successor thereto (relating to
such Foreign Lender and entitling it to an exemption from, or reduction of,
United States withholding tax on all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender
by the Company or any other Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement or any other
Loan

                                      161
<PAGE>

Document) or IRS Form W-8ECI or any successor thereto (relating to all payments
to be made to such Foreign Lender by the Company or any other Loan Party
pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document) or such other evidence
reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Administrative Agent that such
Foreign Lender is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, United States
withholding tax, including any exemption pursuant to Section 871(h) or 881(c) of
the Code, and in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming such an exemption under
Section 881(c) of the Code, a certificate that establishes in writing to the
Company and the Administrative Agent that such Foreign Lender is not (i) a
"bank" as defined in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (ii) a 10-percent
shareholder within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or (iii) a
controlled foreign corporation related to the Company with the meaning of
Section 864(d) of the Code. Thereafter and from time to time, each such Foreign
Lender shall (A) promptly submit to the Company and the Administrative Agent
such additional duly completed and signed copies of one or more of such forms or
certificates (or such successor forms or certificates as shall be adopted from
time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then be
available under then current United States laws and regulations to avoid, or
such evidence as is reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the
Administrative Agent of any available exemption from, or reduction of, United
States withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Foreign
Lender by the Company or other Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement, or any
other Loan Document, in each case, (1) on or before the date that any such form,
certificate or other evidence expires or becomes obsolete, (2) after the
occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form, certificate
or evidence previously delivered by it to the Company and the Administrative
Agent and (3) from time to time thereafter if reasonably requested by the
Company or the Administrative Agent, and (B) promptly notify the Company and the
Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render
invalid any claimed exemption or reduction.

            (ii) Each Foreign Lender, to the extent it does not act or ceases to
      act for its own account with respect to any portion of any sums paid or
      payable to such Foreign Lender under any of the Loan Documents (for
      example, in the case of a typical participation by such Foreign Lender),
      shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent on the date when
      such Foreign Lender ceases to act for its own account with respect to any
      portion of any such sums paid or payable, and at such other times as may
      be necessary in the determination of the Company or the Administrative
      Agent (in either case, in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), (A)
      two duly signed completed copies of the forms or statements required to be
      provided by such Foreign Lender as set forth above, to establish the
      portion of any such sums paid or payable with respect to which such
      Foreign Lender acts for its own account that is not subject to United
      States withholding tax, and (B) two duly signed completed copies of IRS
      Form W-8IMY (or any successor thereto), together with any information such
      Foreign Lender chooses to transmit with such form, and any other
      certificate or statement of exemption required under the Code, to
      establish that such Foreign Lender is not acting for its own account with
      respect to a portion of any such sums payable to such Foreign Lender.

            (iii) The Company shall not be required to pay any additional amount
      or any indemnity payment under Section 3.01 to (A) any Foreign Lender if
      such Foreign Lender shall have failed to satisfy the foregoing provisions
      of this Section 10.15(a), or (B) any U.S. Lender if such U.S. Lender shall
      have failed to satisfy the provisions of Section

                                      162
<PAGE>

      10.15(b); provided that (i) if such Lender shall have satisfied the
      requirement of this or Section 10.15(b), as applicable, on the date such
      Lender became a Lender or ceased to act for its own account with respect
      to any payment under any of the Loan Documents, nothing in this Section
      10.15(a) or Section 10.15(b) shall relieve any Borrower of its obligation
      to pay any amounts pursuant to Section 3.01 in the event that, as a result
      of any change in any applicable Law, treaty or governmental rule,
      regulation or order, or any change in the interpretation, administration
      or application thereof, such Lender is no longer properly entitled to
      deliver forms, certificates or other evidence at a subsequent date
      establishing the fact that such Lender or other Person for the account of
      which such Lender receives any sums payable under any of the Loan
      Documents is not subject to withholding or is subject to withholding at a
      reduced rate and (ii) nothing in this Section 10.15(a) shall relieve any
      Borrower of its obligation to pay any amounts pursuant to Section 3.01 in
      the event that the requirements of 10.15(a)(ii) have not been satisfied if
      such Borrower is entitled, under applicable Law, to rely on any applicable
      forms and statements required to be provided under this Section 10.15 by
      the Foreign Lender that does not act or has ceased to act for its own
      account under any of the Loan Documents, including in the case of a
      typical participation.

            (iv) The Administrative Agent may deduct and withhold any taxes
      required by any Laws to be deducted and withheld from any payment under
      any of the Loan Documents.

      (b) Each Lender and Agent that is a "United States person" within the
meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (each, a "U.S. LENDER") shall deliver
to the Administrative Agent and the Company two duly signed, properly completed
copies of IRS Form W-9 on or prior to the Closing Date (or on or prior to the
date it becomes a party to this Agreement), certifying that such U.S. Lender is
entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax, or any
successor form. If such U.S. Lender fails to deliver such forms, then the
Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to such U.S. Lender an amount
equivalent to the applicable backup withholding tax imposed by the Code.

      Section 10.16 Governing Law. (a) THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE
STATE OF NEW YORK.

      (b) ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY

      Section 10.17 Waiver of Right to Trial by Jury. EACH PARTY TO THIS
AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM,
DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR IN ANY WAY
CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR
ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED

      Section 10.18 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when
it shall have been executed by the Borrowers and Holdings and the Administrative
Agent shall have been notified by each Lender, Swing Line Lender and the L/C
Issuer that each such Lender, Swing Line Lender and the L/C Issuer has executed
it and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each
Borrower, each Agent and each Lender and their respective successors and
assigns, except that no Borrower shall have the right to assign its rights
hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the
Lenders except as permitted by Section 7.04.

      Section 10.19 Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining
judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any
other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange
used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the
Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency
on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The
obligation of each Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to the
Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under the other Loan Documents
shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the "JUDGMENT CURRENCY")
other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the
applicable provisions of this Agreement (the "AGREEMENT CURRENCY"), be
discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the
Administrative Agent of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency,
the Administrative Agent may in accordance with normal banking procedures
purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the
Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the
Administrative Agent from any Borrower in the Agreement Currency, such Borrower
agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to
indemnify the Administrative Agent or the Person to whom such obligation was
owing against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is
greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent in such
currency, the Administrative Agent agrees to return the amount of any excess to
such Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under
applicable law).

      Section 10.20 Lender Action. Each Lender agrees that it shall not take or
institute any actions or proceedings, judicial or otherwise, for any right or
remedy against any Loan Party or any other obligor under any of the Loan
Documents or the Secured Hedge Agreements (including, without limitation, the
exercise of any right of setoff, rights on account of any banker's lien or
similar claim or other rights of self-help), or institute any actions or
proceedings, or otherwise commence any remedial procedures, with respect to any
Collateral or any other property of any such Loan Party, without the prior
written consent of the Administrative Agent. The provision of this Section 10.20
are for the sole benefit of the Lenders and shall not afford any right to, or
constitute a defense available to, any Loan Party. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Lenders and their Affiliates may exercise set off rights in
accordance with Section 10.09 against the Company and its Subsidiaries with
respect to the Overdraft Loan Facility.

      Section 10.21 USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrowers
that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L.
107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the "ACT"), it is required to
obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers, which
information includes the name and address of the Borrowers and other information
that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrowers in accordance with the
Act.

      Section 10.22 Agent for Service of Process. The Company agrees that
promptly following request by the Administrative Agent it shall cause each
Foreign Subsidiary which is a Loan Party or for whose account a Letter of Credit
is issued to appoint and maintain an agent reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent to receive service of process in New York City on behalf of
such Foreign Subsidiary.

      Section 10.23 Existing Credit Agreement; Effectiveness of Second Amendment
and Restatement. Until this Agreement becomes effective in accordance with the
terms of the Second Amendment and Restatement Agreement, the Existing Credit
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected
hereby. After the Second Restatement Effective Date, all obligations of the
Borrowers under the Existing Credit Agreement shall become obligations of the
Borrowers hereunder, secured by the Loan Documents, and the provisions of the
Existing Credit Agreement shall be superseded by the provisions hereof.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be
duly executed as of the date first above written.

BANK, as administrative agent (in such capacity, together with any successor
administrative agent, the "Administrative Agent") for the Secured Parties (as
defined in the Credit Agreement referred to below).

                             PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS

            (1) The Company has entered into a Credit Agreement dated of even

Lenders, the L/C Issuer, the Overdraft Loan Facility Lender and the Agents party
thereto.

            (2) Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Grantors are entering into

benefit of the Secured Parties a security interest in the Collateral (as
hereinafter defined) to secure their respective Secured Obligations (as
hereinafter defined).

            (3) It is a condition precedent to the making of Loans and the
issuance of Letters of Credit by the Lenders under the Credit Agreement and the
entry into Secured Hedge Agreements by the Hedge Banks from time to time that
the Grantors shall have granted the assignment and security interest and made
the pledge and assignment contemplated by this Agreement.

            (4) Each Grantor will derive substantial direct and indirect benefit
from the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents and the Secured Hedge
Agreements (together with all instruments, agreements or other documents
evidencing the Cash Management Obligations, the "Finance Documents").

            (5) Terms defined in the Credit Agreement and not otherwise defined
in this Agreement are used in this Agreement as defined in the Credit Agreement.
Further, unless otherwise defined in this Agreement or in the Credit Agreement,

Hedge Banks to enter into Secured Hedge

            Grantor which, when aggregated with all of the other Equity

            Subsidiary entitled to vote (within the meaning of Treasury
            Regulation Section 1.956 2(c)(2) promulgated under the Code) (the
            "Voting Foreign Stock") being pledged to the Administrative Agent,
            on behalf of the Secured Parties under this Agreement; provided
            further that all of the shares of stock or units or other Equity
            Interests in such Foreign Subsidiary not entitled to vote (within
            the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.956-2(c)(2) promulgated
            under the Code) (the "Non-Voting Foreign Stock") shall be pledged by
            such Grantor; provided further that nothing in this clause is
            intended to modify the scope of Section 6.12 of the Credit Agreement

nature whether or not covered by Article 9 of the UCC; and

            (t) all Proceeds of, collateral for, income, royalties and other

Obligations relating to, any and all of the Collateral and, to the extent not
otherwise included, all payments under insurance (whether or not the
Administrative Agent is the loss payee thereof), or any indemnity, warranty or
guaranty, payable by reason of loss or damage to or otherwise with respect to
any of the foregoing Collateral;

provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this
Agreement shall not constitute a grant of a security interest in (A) motor
vehicles the perfection of a security interest in which is excluded from the UCC
in the relevant jurisdiction, (B) any Letter-of-Credit Rights to the extent any
Grantor is required by applicable law to apply the Proceeds of such
Letter-of-Credit Rights for a specified purpose or (C) any General Intangible,
Investment Property or other such rights of a Grantor arising under any
contract, lease, instrument, license or other document if (but only to the
extent that) the grant of a security interest therein would (x) constitute a
violation of a valid and enforceable restriction in respect of such General
Intangible, Investment Property or other such rights in favor of a third party
or under any law, regulation, permit, order or decree of any Governmental
Authority, unless and until all required consents shall have been obtained (for
the avoidance of doubt, the restrictions described herein are not negative
pledges or similar undertakings in favor of a lender or other financial
counterparty) or (y) expressly give any other party in respect of any such
contract, lease, instrument, license or other document, the right to terminate
its obligations thereunder; provided however, that the limitation set forth in
clause (C) above shall not affect, limit, restrict or impair the grant by a
Grantor of a security interest pursuant to this Agreement in any such Collateral
to the extent that an otherwise applicable prohibition or restriction on such
grant is rendered ineffective by any applicable law, including the UCC. Each
Grantor shall, if requested to do so by the Administrative Agent, use
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any such required consent that is
reasonably obtainable with respect to Collateral which the Administrative Agent
reasonably determines to be material.

The Company agrees to grant a security interest over 65% of its Equity Interests
in any Australian Foreign Subsidiary (with the Equity Interests in the
Australian Foreign Subsidiary to be identified in the Australian security
instrument) on such terms as are agreed between the Company and the
Administrative Agent. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding Section
1(ii), it is acknowledged by and between the Company and the Administrative
Agent that the provisions of this section and the other provisions of this
Agreement shall not create any security interest of any nature in the Equity
Interests in any Australian Foreign Subsidiary for so long as in the reasonable
determination of the Administrative Agent the creation of such security

<PAGE>

                                                                               6

interest pursuant to this Agreement would result in adverse tax or duty
consequences under Australian law to the Company or the Restricted Subsidiaries
or any of the Secured Parties.

            SECTION 2. Security for Obligations. This Agreement secures, in the
case of each Grantor, the payment of all Obligations of such Grantor now or
hereafter existing, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, and
whether for principal, reimbursement obligations, interest, fees, premiums,
penalties, indemnifications, contract causes of action, costs, expenses or
otherwise (all such Obligations being the "Secured Obligations").

            SECTION 3. Grantors Remain Liable. Anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, (a) each Grantor shall remain liable under the contracts and
agreements included in such Grantor's Collateral to the extent set forth therein
to perform all of its duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if
this Agreement had not been executed, (b) the exercise by the Administrative
Agent of any of the rights hereunder shall not release any Grantor from any of
its duties or obligations under the contracts and agreements included in the
Collateral and (c) no Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under
the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral by reason of this
Agreement or any other Finance Document, nor shall any Secured Party be
obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Grantor thereunder
or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned
hereunder.

            SECTION 4. Delivery and Control of Security Collateral.

            (a) All certificates representing or evidencing the Pledged Equity
and all instruments representing or evidencing the Pledged Debt shall be
delivered to and held by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent pursuant
hereto and shall be in suitable form for transfer by delivery, or shall be
accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, all
in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
During the continuation of an Event of Default and subject to Section 4(c), the
Administrative Agent shall have the right, at any time in its discretion and
without notice to any Grantor, to (i) transfer to or to register in the name of
the Administrative Agent or any of its nominees any or all of the Security
Collateral, subject only to the revocable rights specified in Section 10(a),
(ii) exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Security
Collateral for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations,
and (iii) convert Security Collateral consisting of Financial Assets credited to
any Securities Account to Security Collateral consisting of Financial Assets
held directly by the Administrative Agent, and to convert Security Collateral
consisting of Financial Assets held directly by the Administrative Agent to
Security Collateral consisting of Financial Assets credited to any Securities
Account.

            (b) During the continuation of an Event of Default and subject to
Section 4(c), promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent, with
respect to any Security Collateral in which any Grantor has any right, title or
interest and that constitutes an Uncertificated Security, such Grantor will
cause the issuer thereof either (i) to register the Administrative Agent as the
registered owner of such Security or (ii) to agree in an authenticated record
with such Grantor and the Administrative Agent that such issuer will comply with
instructions with respect to such Security Collateral originated by the
Administrative Agent without further consent of such Grantor, such authenticated
record to be in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative

                                                                               7

Agent. During the continuation of an Event of Default and subject to Section
4(c), with respect to any Security Collateral in which any Grantor has any
right, title or interest and that is not an Uncertificated Security, promptly
upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Grantor will notify each such
issuer of Pledged Equity that such Pledged Equity is subject to the security
interest granted hereunder.

            (c) Nothing in Sections 4(a) or 4(b) shall be construed to require
any Grantor to enter into any control agreement with respect to any Deposit
Account or Securities Account.

            SECTION 5. Maintaining Electronic Chattel Paper, Transferable
Records and Letter-of-Credit Rights and Giving Notice of Commercial Tort Claims.
So long as any Loan or any other Obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan
Document shall remain unpaid, any Letter of Credit shall be outstanding or any
Lender shall have any Commitment:

            (a) During the continuation of an Event of Default, promptly upon
the request of the Administrative Agent, each Grantor will maintain (i) all
Electronic Chattel Paper so that the Administrative Agent has control of the
Electronic Chattel Paper in the manner specified in Section 9-105 of the UCC and
(ii) all transferable records so that the Administrative Agent has control of
the transferable records in the manner specified in Section 16 of the Uniform
Electronic Transactions Act, as in effect in the jurisdiction governing such
transferable record ("UETA"); and

            (b) Each Grantor will give prompt notice to the Administrative Agent
of any Commercial Tort Claim individually in excess of $2,500,000 that may arise
in the future and will promptly execute or otherwise authenticate a supplement
to this Agreement, and otherwise take all necessary action, to subject such
Commercial Tort Claim to the first priority security interest created under this
Agreement.

            SECTION 6. Representations and Warranties. Each Grantor represents
and warrants as follows:

            (a) Such Grantor's exact legal name, as defined in Section 9-503(a)
of the UCC, is correctly set forth in Schedule I hereto. Such Grantor is located
(within the meaning of Section 9-307 of the UCC) and has its chief executive
office in the state or jurisdiction set forth in Schedule I hereto. The
information set forth in Schedule I hereto with respect to such Grantor is true
and accurate in all material respects.

            (b) All Pledged Equity consisting of Certificated Securities has
been delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance herewith; provided that
the Certificated Securities which are to be delivered to the Administrative
Agent within 30 days after the Closing Date, as specified in Schedule III
hereto, shall have been delivered within such time period or within such longer
period of time as the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate.

            (c) Such Grantor is the legal and beneficial owner of the Collateral
of such Grantor free and clear of any Lien, claim, option or right of others,
except for the security interest created under this Agreement, subject to Liens
permitted under Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement.

            (d) The Pledged Equity issued by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries has been duly authorized and validly issued and is fully paid and
non assessable or the equivalent under applicable law.

            (e) The Pledged Equity pledged by such Grantor constitutes the
percentage of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests of the issuers thereof
indicated on Schedule III hereto.

            (f) Schedule IV lists all Intellectual Property owned by such
Grantor in its own name on the date hereof.

            (g) On the Closing Date each Grantor has executed and delivered to
the Administrative Agent (i) an agreement, in substantially the form set forth
in Exhibit B hereto or otherwise in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
to the Administrative Agent (a "Copyright Security Agreement"), (ii) an
agreement, in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit C hereto or otherwise
in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (a
"Patent Security Agreement") and (iii) an agreement, in substantially the form
set forth in Exhibit D hereto or otherwise in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (a "Trademark Security Agreement" and,
together with each Copyright Security Agreement and each Patent Security
Agreement, the "Intellectual Property Security Agreements"), in each case for
recording the security interest granted hereunder to the Administrative Agent in
such Intellectual Property Collateral with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office
or the U.S. Copyright Office, as applicable.

            (h) (i) This Agreement creates in favor of the Administrative Agent
for the benefit of the Secured Parties a valid security interest in all the
Collateral of each Grantor, securing the payment of the Secured Obligations of
such Grantor; (ii) upon the filing of a UCC financing statement in the UCC
filing office in the jurisdiction set forth in Schedule I under the heading
"Jurisdiction of Organization" with respect to such Grantor, naming such Grantor
as the debtor, the Administrative Agent as the secured party and including the
collateral description set forth in Schedule VI, all actions necessary to
perfect the security interest in the Collateral of such Grantor created under
this Agreement with respect to which a Lien may be perfected by filing pursuant
to the UCC, including without limitation unregistered Copyrights (all such
Collateral, "Filing Collateral") shall have been duly made or taken and be in
full force and effect, and the Lien created under this Agreement in such
Grantor's Filing Collateral shall be perfected; (iii) upon the timely
recordation of a Copyright Security Agreement naming such Grantor as the grantor
and the Administrative Agent as the secured party with the U.S. Copyright
Office, all actions necessary to perfect the security interest in the Collateral
of such Grantor consisting of the registered Copyrights described therein and
applicable IP Agreements with respect thereto ("Copyright Collateral") shall
have been duly made or taken and be in full force and effect, and the Lien
created under this Agreement in such Grantor's Copyright Collateral shall be
perfected; and (iv) to the extent the filing in subsection (ii) above is
insufficient for perfection, upon the timely recordation of a Patent Security
Agreement and Trademark Security Agreement naming such Grantor as the grantor
and the Administrative Agent as the secured party with the U.S. Patent and
Trademark Office, all actions necessary to perfect the security interest in the
Collateral of such Grantor consisting of the registered Patents and Trademarks
(and applications therefore) described therein and applicable IP Agreements with
respect thereto ("Patent

                                                                               9

Collateral" and "Trademark Collateral," respectively) shall have been duly made
or taken and be in full force and effect, and the Lien created under this
Agreement in such Grantor's Patent Collateral and Trademark Collateral shall be
perfected.

            (i) Except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect:

                  (i) The operation of such Grantor's business as currently
            conducted and as contemplated to be conducted and the use of the
            Intellectual Property Collateral in connection therewith do not
            conflict with, infringe, misappropriate, dilute, misuse or otherwise
            violate the intellectual property rights of any third party.

                  (ii) The registered Intellectual Property Collateral (and
            applications therefor) are subsisting and have not been adjudged
            invalid or unenforceable in whole or part, and to such Grantor's
            knowledge, is valid and enforceable. There are no uses of any item
            of Intellectual Property Collateral by a Grantor or any Affiliate of
            a Grantor that could be expected to lead to such item becoming
            invalid or unenforceable (or in case of a trade secret, lose its
            competitive value).

                  (iii) Such Grantor has made or performed all required filings,
            recordings and other acts and has paid all required fees and taxes
            to maintain and protect its interest in its registered Intellectual
            Property Collateral (and applications therefor) in full force and
            effect in the United States, and to protect and maintain its
            interest therein including, without limitation, recordations of any
            of its interests in the Patents and Trademarks with the U.S. Patent
            and Trademark Office and recordation of any of its interests in the
            Copyrights with the U.S. Copyright Office.

                  (iv) (A) None of the Trade Secrets of such Grantor has been
            used, divulged, disclosed or appropriated to the detriment of such
            Grantor for the benefit of any other Person other than such Grantor;
            (B) no employee, independent contractor or agent of such Grantor has
            misappropriated any trade secrets of such Grantor; and (C) no
            employee, independent contractor or agent of such Grantor is in
            default or breach of any term of any employment agreement,
            non-disclosure agreement, assignment of inventions agreement or
            similar agreement or contract relating in any way to the protection,
            ownership, licensing, development, or use of such Grantor's
            Intellectual Property Collateral.

                  (v) No Grantor or Intellectual Property Collateral is subject
            to any outstanding consent, settlement, decree, order, injunction,
            judgment or ruling restricting the use of any Intellectual Property
            Collateral by such Grantor or any of its Affiliates or that would
            impair the validity or enforceability of such Intellectual Property
            Collateral.

            SECTION 7. Further Assurances.

            (a) Each Grantor agrees that from time to time, at the expense of
such Grantor, such Grantor will promptly execute and deliver, or otherwise
authenticate, all further instruments and documents, and take all further action
that may be reasonably necessary or desirable, or that the Administrative Agent
may reasonably request, in order to perfect and protect any pledge or security
interest granted or purported to be granted by such Grantor hereunder or to
enable the Administrative Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies
hereunder with respect to any Collateral of such Grantor.

            (b) Each Grantor hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to file
one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto,
including, without limitation, one or more financing statements indicating that
such financing statements cover all assets or all personal property (or words of
similar effect) of such Grantor, in each case without the signature of such
Grantor, and regardless of whether any particular asset described in such
financing statements falls within the scope of the UCC or the granting clause of
this Agreement. A photocopy or other reproduction of this Agreement or any
financing statement covering the Collateral or any part thereof shall be
sufficient as a financing statement where permitted by law. Each Grantor
ratifies its authorization for the Administrative Agent to have filed such
financing statements, continuation statements or amendments filed prior to the
date hereof.

            (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or
any other Collateral Document, this Agreement shall be subject to the provisions
of Section 6.12(d) of the Credit Agreement.

            SECTION 8. Post-Closing Changes; Bailees; Collections on Assigned
Agreements and Accounts.

            (a) No Grantor will change its name, type of organization,
jurisdiction of organization, organizational identification number (if any) or
location from those set forth in Schedule I hereto without first giving at least
5 days' (or such lesser period of time as the Administrative Agent may agree)
prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and taking all action
reasonably required by the Administrative Agent for the purpose of perfecting or
protecting the security interest granted by this Agreement.

            (b) During the continuation of an Event of Default, if any
Collateral of any Grantor is at any time in the possession or control of a
warehouseman, bailee or agent the Company will promptly notify the
Administrative Agent and, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such
Grantor will (i) notify such warehouseman, bailee or agent of the security
interest created hereunder and (ii) instruct such warehouseman, bailee or agent
to hold all such Collateral solely for the Administrative Agent's account
subject only to the Administrative Agent's instructions.

            (c) Except as otherwise provided in this subsection (c), each
Grantor will continue to collect, at its own expense, all amounts due or to
become due such Grantor under the Accounts. In connection with such collections,
such Grantor may take (and, at the Administrative Agent's direction during the
continuation of an Event of Default, shall take) such

                                                                              11

commercially reasonable actions as such Grantor (or the Administrative Agent)
may deem reasonably necessary or advisable to enforce collection thereof;
provided that the Administrative Agent shall have the right, at any time upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and upon
written notice to such Grantor of its intention to do so, to notify the obligors
under any Accounts of the assignment of such Accounts to the Administrative
Agent and to direct such obligors to make payment of all amounts due or to
become due to such Grantor thereunder directly to the Administrative Agent and,
upon such notification and at the expense of such Grantor, to enforce collection
of any such Accounts, to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment
thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as such Grantor might have
done, and to otherwise exercise all rights with respect to such Accounts,

            SECTION 9. As to Intellectual Property Collateral.

            (a) Except to the extent failure to act could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, with respect to registration or
pending application of each item of its Intellectual Property Collateral for
which such Grantor has standing to do so, each Grantor agrees to take, at its
expense, all steps, including, without limitation, in the U.S. Patent and
Trademark Office, the U.S. Copyright Office and any other governmental authority
located in the United States, to (i) maintain the validity and enforceability of
any registered Intellectual Property Collateral (or applications therefor) and
maintain such Intellectual Property Collateral in full force and effect, and
(ii) pursue the registration and maintenance of each Patent, Trademark, or
Copyright registration or application, now or hereafter included in such
Intellectual Property Collateral of such Grantor, including, without limitation,
the payment of required fees and taxes, the filing of responses to office
actions issued by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the U.S. Copyright
Office or other governmental authorities, the filing of applications for renewal
or extension, the filing of affidavits under Sections 8 and 15 of the U.S.
Trademark Act, the filing of divisional, continuation, continuation-in-part,
reissue and renewal applications or extensions, the payment of maintenance fees
and the participation in interference, reexamination, opposition, cancellation,
infringement and misappropriation proceedings.

            (b) Except as could not be reasonably expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect, no Grantor shall do or permit any act or knowingly omit to do
any act whereby any of its Intellectual Property Collateral may lapse, be
terminated, or become invalid or unenforceable or placed in the public domain
(or in case of a trade secret, lose its competitive value).

            (c) Except where failure to do so could not reasonably be expected
to cause a Material Adverse Effect, each Grantor shall take all steps to
preserve and protect each item of its Intellectual Property Collateral,
including, without limitation, maintaining the quality of any and

                                                                              12

all products or services used or provided in connection with any of the
Trademarks, consistent with the quality of the products and services as of the
date hereof, and taking all steps necessary to ensure that all licensed users of
any of the Trademarks abide by the applicable license's terms with respect to
the standards of quality.

            (d) Each Grantor agrees that, should it obtain an ownership or other
interest in any Intellectual Property Collateral after the Closing Date
("After-Acquired Intellectual Property") (i) the provisions of this Agreement
shall automatically apply thereto, and (ii) any such After-Acquired Intellectual
Property and, in the case of Trademarks, the goodwill symbolized thereby, shall
automatically become part of the Intellectual Property Collateral subject to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement with respect thereto.

            (e) Once every fiscal quarter of the Company, with respect to issued
or registered Patents (or published applications therefor) or Trademarks (or
applications therefor), and once every month, with respect to registered
Copyrights, each Grantor shall sign and deliver to the Administrative Agent an
appropriate Intellectual Property Security Agreement with respect to all
applicable Intellectual Property owned or exclusively licensed by it as of the
last day of such period, to the extent that such Intellectual Property is not
covered by any previous Intellectual Property Security Agreement so signed and
delivered by it. In each case, it will promptly cooperate as reasonably
necessary to enable the Administrative Agent to make any necessary or reasonably
desirable recordations with the U.S. Copyright Office or the U.S. Patent and
Trademark Office, as appropriate.

            (f) Nothing in this Agreement prevents any Grantor from
discontinuing the use or maintenance of any of its Intellectual Property
Collateral to the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement if such Grantor
determines in its reasonable business judgment that such discontinuance is
desirable in the conduct of its business.

            SECTION 10. Voting Rights; Dividends; Etc.(a) So long as no Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

                  (i) Each Grantor shall be entitled to exercise any and all
            voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Security
            Collateral of such Grantor or any part thereof for any purpose;
            provided that such Grantor will not exercise or refrain from
            exercising any such right if such action would have a material
            adverse effect on the value of the Security Collateral or any part
            thereof.

                  (ii) Each Grantor shall be entitled to receive and retain any
            and all dividends, interest and other distributions paid in respect
            of the Security Collateral of such Grantor if and to the extent that
            the payment thereof is not otherwise prohibited by the terms of the
            Loan Documents; provided that any and all non-cash dividends,
            interest and other distributions paid or payable in respect of, and
            instruments and other property received, receivable or otherwise
            distributed in respect of, or in exchange for, any Security
            Collateral, shall be, and shall be forthwith delivered to the
            Administrative Agent to hold as, Security Collateral and shall, if
            received by such Grantor, be received in trust for the benefit of
            the Administrative Agent, be segregated from the other property or
            funds of such

            Grantor and be forthwith delivered to the Administrative Agent as
            Security Collateral in the same form as so received (with any
            necessary endorsement).

                  (iii) The Administrative Agent will execute and deliver (or
            cause to be executed and delivered) to each Grantor all such proxies
            and other instruments as such Grantor may reasonably request for the
            purpose of enabling such Grantor to exercise the voting and other
            rights that it is entitled to exercise pursuant to paragraph (i)
            above and to receive the dividends or interest payments that it is
            authorized to receive and retain pursuant to paragraph (ii) above.

            (b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event
of Default:

            cease and (y) to receive the dividends, interest and other
            distributions that it would otherwise be authorized to receive and
            retain pursuant to Section 10(a)(ii) shall automatically cease, and
            all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Administrative
            Agent, which shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise or
            refrain from exercising such voting and other consensual rights and
            to receive and hold as Security Collateral such dividends, interest
            and other distributions.

                  (ii) All dividends, interest and other distributions that are
            received by any Grantor contrary to the provisions of paragraph (i)
            of this Section 10(b) shall be received in trust for the benefit of
            the Administrative Agent, shall be segregated from other funds of
            such Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over to the Administrative
            Agent as Security Collateral in the same form as so received (with
            any necessary endorsement).

            SECTION 11. Transfers and Other Liens; Additional Shares.

            (a) Each Grantor agrees that it will not (i) sell, license,
exchange, assign or otherwise transfer or dispose of, or grant any rights or
options with respect to, any of the Collateral, except to the extent permitted
under the Credit Agreement, or (ii) create or suffer to exist any Lien upon or
with respect to any of the Collateral of such Grantor except for the pledge,

Pledged Equity pledged by such Grantor not to issue any Equity Interests or
other Securities in addition to or in substitution for the Pledged Equity issued

and (ii) pledge promptly upon its acquisition thereof, any and all additional
Equity Interests or other Securities (subject to Section 1(o)(ii) with respect
to Voting Foreign Stock).

            SECTION 12. Administrative Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Each
Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent such Grantor's
attorney in fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and
in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, from time to time, upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in the Administrative Agent's
discretion, to take any action and to execute any instrument that the
Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes
of this Agreement, including, without limitation:

            (a) to obtain and adjust insurance required to be paid to the
Administrative Agent,

            (b) to ask for, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise,
receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under

Administrative Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by such
Grantor under Section 16.

            SECTION 14. Administrative Agent's Duties. The powers conferred on

Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral, as to ascertaining or taking
action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or
other matters relative to any Collateral, whether or not any Secured Party has
or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or as to the taking of any
necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties or any other rights
pertaining to any Collateral. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have
exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in
its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to
that which it accords its own property, and will not be liable or responsible
for any loss or damage to any Collateral, or for any diminution in the value
thereof, by reason of any act or omission of any sub-agent or bailee selected by
the Administrative Agent in good faith, except to the extent that such liability
arises from the Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.

                                                                              15

            SECTION 15. Remedies. If any Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing:

Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or
otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party upon
default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected
Collateral) and also may: (i) require each Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby
agrees that it will at its expense and upon request of the Administrative Agent
forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the
Administrative Agent and make it available to the Administrative Agent at a
place and time to be designated by the Administrative Agent that is reasonably
convenient to both parties; (ii) without notice except as specified below, sell
the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private
sale, at any of the Administrative Agent's offices or elsewhere, for cash, on
credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Administrative
Agent may deem commercially reasonable; (iii) occupy any premises owned or, to
the extent lawful and permitted, leased by any of the Grantors where the
Collateral or any part thereof is assembled or located for a reasonable period
in order to effectuate its rights and remedies hereunder or under law, without
obligation to such Grantor in respect of such occupation; and (iv) exercise any
and all rights and remedies of any of the Grantors under or in connection with
the Collateral, or otherwise in respect of the Collateral, including, without
limitation, (a) any and all rights of such Grantor to demand or otherwise
require payment of any amount under, or performance of any provision of, the
Assigned Agreements, the Accounts and the other Collateral, (b)withdraw, or
cause or direct the withdrawal, of all funds with respect to the Deposit
Accounts and (c) exercise all other rights and remedies with respect to the
Assigned Agreements, the Accounts and the other Collateral, including, without
limitation, those set forth in Section 9-607 of the UCC. The Administrative
Agent shall give the applicable Grantors at least ten (10) Business Days'
written notice of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which
any private sale is to be made and each Grantor agrees that such notice shall
constitute reasonable notification. The Administrative Agent shall not be
obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having
been given. The Administrative Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from
time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale
may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so
adjourned.

            (b) All payments received by any Grantor under or in connection with
any Assigned Agreement or otherwise in respect of the Collateral shall be
received in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, shall be
segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over to
the Administrative Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary
endorsement).

            (c) The Administrative Agent may, without notice to any Grantor
except as required by law and at any time or from time to time, charge, set off
and otherwise apply all or any part of the Secured Obligations against any funds
held with respect to any Deposit Account.

right to sell all or any of the Security Collateral of any Grantor pursuant to
this Section 15, each Grantor agrees that, upon request of the Administrative
Agent, such Grantor will, at its own expense, do or

cause to be done all such other acts and things as may be necessary to make such
sale of such Security Collateral or any part thereof valid and binding and in
compliance with applicable law.

sale of the Security Collateral pursuant to this Section 15, to deliver or
otherwise disclose to any prospective purchaser of the Security Collateral: (i)
any registration statement or prospectus, and all supplements and amendments
thereto; (ii) any information and projections; and (iii) any other information
in its possession relating to such Security Collateral.

            (f) Each Grantor acknowledges the impossibility of ascertaining the
amount of damages that would be suffered by the Secured Parties by reason of the
failure by such Grantor to perform any of the covenants contained in subsection
(d) above and, consequently, agrees that, if such Grantor shall fail to perform
any of such covenants, it will pay, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty,
an amount equal to the value of the Security Collateral upon demand by the
Administrative Agent of compliance with subsection (d) above.

            SECTION 16. Indemnity and Expenses.

            (a) Each Grantor agrees to indemnify, defend and save and hold

losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees
and expenses of counsel that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against
any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or
resulting from this Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement of
this Agreement), except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or
expense has resulted from such Indemnified Party's gross negligence or willful
misconduct.

            (b) Each Grantor will upon demand pay to the Administrative Agent
the amount of any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including, without
limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel and of any experts
and agents, that the Administrative Agent may incur in connection with (i) the

operation of, or the sale of, collection from or other realization upon, any of
the Collateral of such Grantor.

the amount of any and all out-of-pocket expenses, including, without limitation,
the fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel in connection with (i) the
exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of the Administrative Agent or the
other Secured Parties hereunder or (ii) the failure by such Grantor to perform
or observe any of the provisions hereof.

            SECTION 17. Amendments; Waivers; Additional Grantors; Etc.

            (a) No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and
no consent to any departure by any Grantor herefrom, shall in any event be
effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by each Grantor to
which such amendment or waiver is to apply and the Administrative Agent (with

specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No failure on
the part of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to exercise, and
no delay in exercising any right hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof;
nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.

full force and effect in such jurisdiction and shall be liberally construed in
favor of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties in order to carry out
the intentions of the parties thereto as nearly as may be possible and (ii) the
