                  (iv)     no Event of Seller Default shall have occurred and be
                           continuing.

                  (i)      Upon purchase of any Qualified Receivable(s), SCTSC
                           shall pay to the Seller an amount equal to 90% of the
                           aggregate face value of such Qualified Receivable(s)
                           indicated on the applicable Pro-Forma Invoice (the
                           "Purchase Price") less the Discount Fee, handling

                           to such excess amount for the benefit of SCTSC. Such

                  applicable Discount Fee from its payment due to the Seller,
                  plus any and all other fees and incidental expenses incurred
                  or anticipated by SCTSC (including, without limitation, legal

                  that if the Bank cannot offer SCTSC a LIBOR rate calculated as
                  set forth above, the Seller agrees that the LIBOR rate shall
                  be defined as such other rate as the Bank shall determine as

                  less than the Bank's applicable overnight Reference Rate in
                  effect from time to time plus a margin of (i) if the Maturity
                  Date is on the Initial Maturity Date, two percent (2.0%) per
                  annum and (ii) if the Maturity Date is extended pursuant to
                  Section 8.C below, six percent (6.0%) per annum. Such penalty
                  rate shall be based on the face amount of the Final Invoice
                  from the Invoice Due Date until full repayment thereof has
                  been received by SCTSC from the Buyer.

                  "Reference Rate" is defined as the rate established from time
                  to time by the Bank as its Reference Rate, as quoted at 11:00
                  a.m. New York time.

                  Notwithstanding the above, the Seller shall not be obligated
                  to collect or pay any such penalties hereunder (except to the
                  extent funds for such penalties are actually received by the
                  Seller from the Buyer) for any portion of the Qualified
                  Receivables deemed Uncollectible (as defined herein). A
                  Qualified Receivable will be deemed "Uncollectible" if (i) it
                  has been unpaid for more than 120 days after the due date
                  stated on the Final Invoice, (ii) it has been written off by
                  SCTSC as uncollectible or should have been written off in
                  accordance with SCTSC's sole and absolute credit
                  determination, (iii) the Buyer becomes a debtor in bankruptcy
                  proceedings or is otherwise judicially determined to be
                  insolvent, or (iv) the Buyer acknowledges in writing that it
                  is insolvent or financially unable to pay such Qualified
                  Receivable(s).

         E.       Mis-directed Payments

                  In the event of funds being forwarded in error by the Buyer
                  directly to another account of the Seller rather than to the
                  SCTSC Account, the Seller is deemed to hold these funds in
                  trust for SCTSC and to immediately remit said payment to the
                  SCTSC Account. The Seller will pay SCTSC a rate of interest
                  equal to the Bank's applicable overnight Reference Rate plus
                  the Applicable Margin, based on a 360 day year and paid on the
                  actual number of days elapsed, for the period between receipt
                  of payment by the Seller and the date such funds are received
                  in full by SCTSC.

3.       Reduction of Maximum Commitment; Mandatory and Optional Prepayment.

         A.       If the Seller is obligated to repurchase all or a portion of
                  the Qualified Receivables prior to the Maturity Date in
                  accordance with Section 3. B below, on the Mandatory
                  Prepayment Date (as defined below), the Maximum Commitment
                  shall automatically and permanently be reduced by an amount
                  equal to the amount of such repurchase.

         B.       If at any time any Designated Assets are sold in accordance
                  with the Letter of Credit Agreement, the Seller shall, in
                  accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement, cause all the
                  proceeds of such sale (net of costs of sale) (the "Net Sale
                  Proceeds") be paid to the Collateral Agent for deposit in the
                  Debt Service Payment Account (as defined in the Intercreditor
                  Agreement). Upon receipt, the

                                        6

<PAGE>

                  Collateral Agent shall, on behalf of the Seller, make a
                  mandatory prepayment of the amounts owing by the Seller to
                  SCTSC under this Agreement in accordance with the
                  Intercreditor Agreement. The date of such mandatory prepayment
                  shall be referred to as the "Mandatory Prepayment Date".

         C.       The Seller may, from time to time on any Business Day
                  occurring after the Effective Date, make a voluntary
                  prepayment, in whole or in part, of the amounts owing by the
                  Seller to SCTSC under this Agreement.

         D.       With respect to any Qualified Receivables repurchased by the
                  Seller from SCTSC pursuant to Sections 3.B and 3.C above,
                  SCTSC agrees that it shall reasonably co-operate with the
                  Seller in providing instructions to the Buyer to remit payment
                  for the applicable amount of the Final Invoice for such
                  Qualified Receivables directly to the Seller. Notwithstanding
                  the above, SCTSC shall not have any responsibility to the
                  Seller to collect any portion of such Qualified Receivables
                  from the Buyer.

4.       Role and Responsibility of the Seller

         A.       Relationship of Parties

                  Neither the Seller nor SCTSC shall be deemed a partner, agent,
                  representative or joint venturer of the other.

         B.       Covenants, Representations and Warranties of the Seller

                  The Seller agrees, represents, warrants with and to SCTSC both

                           of this Agreement does not contravene any law,
                           regulation or contractual restriction binding on or
                           affecting the Seller and that the Buyer is a party
                           with which the Seller is permitted to transact
                           business pursuant to all applicable laws, regulations
                           and rulings of both the United States and its
                           agencies and the

                           State in which the Seller maintains its principal
                           place of business and, in particular, to the
                           regulations of the U.S. Treasury Department's Office
                           of Foreign Assets Control;

                  (vi)     to the best of its knowledge there exist no material
                           disputes or discrepancies outstanding between the
                           Seller and the Buyer relating to prior transactions
                           (except to the extent that the Seller advises SCTSC
                           of such a dispute and SCTSC chooses in its sole
                           discretion to waive such dispute or discrepancy
                           solely for the purpose of purchasing a Qualified
                           Receivable);

                  (vii)    each of the Qualified Receivable(s) is a legal,
                           binding and assignable by the Seller and is
                           enforceable in accordance with is respective terms;

                  (viii)   each of the Qualified Receivable(s) is or will be
                           unaltered and genuine and the Seller has exclusive
                           and unencumbered title to same;

                  (ix)     except for liens in favor of the Collateral Agent as
                           provided in the Intercreditor Agreement and the other

                           Receivable(s) will not have been sold, assigned,
                           transferred or encumbered by a lien or security
                           interest of any nature, directly or indirectly, prior
                           to its acceptance by SCTSC;

                           Receivable(s) as contemplated herein and such sales
                           do not conflict with any agreement binding on the
                           Seller;

                  (xi)     to the best of the Seller's knowledge, the Buyer has
                           not asserted any claim, defense or right of offset to
                           payment of the Qualified Receivable(s), nor does it
                           have grounds to make such assertions; and promptly
                           upon the Seller learning of any such claim, defense
                           or right of offset, it will notify SCTSC thereof in
                           writing;

                  (xii)    each of the Invoices and title documents, such as
                           transport documents, pipeline tickets, receipts or
                           nominations, truck or marine bill(s) of lading, as

                  (xiii)   the Seller agrees to compensate SCTSC for all costs,

                           as a result of any transaction or as a result of the
                           Seller's breach of any representation or warranty
                           contained herein or the Seller's failure to comply
                           with any of the terms or conditions contained herein;

                  (xiv)    the transactions under this Agreement are intended to
                           be true sales; however, for precautionary purposes,
                           SCTSC is granted hereby a security interest in and a
                           right of set-off with respect to all Qualified
                           Receivable(s) which have been purchased by SCTSC and
                           in all contract rights and proceeds related thereto,
                           all as security for payment and performance of all

                           of the Seller's obligations to SCTSC, whether now
                           existing or hereafter arising, direct or indirect,
                           due or to become due, matured or unmatured, or
                           absolute or contingent. SCTSC may file such financing
                           statements as it elects to perfect its security
                           interest;

                           to perform under its contract with the Buyer,

                  (xvi)    SCTSC shall have the right to request, and the Seller
                           shall provide promptly, such information about the

                           SCTSC may reasonably request and SCTSC may, upon
                           reasonable advance notice, inspect the Goods and the
                           Seller's records pertaining to the Goods;

                  (xvii)   the guarantee issued in favor of the Seller by Koch

                           Agreement and will continue to be in full force and
                           effect as long as any amounts are due and owing to
                           SCTSC with respect to any Qualified Receivable(s); no
                           amendments to the Koch Guarantee are permitted
                           without the prior written consent of SCTSC; and

                  (xviii)  the Seller agrees to issue to the Buyer a Final
                           Invoice within forty-nine (49) days after the

                           not later than the eighteenth (18th) day of each
                           month, and to provide SCTSC with a copy thereof on
                           the same day as it is issued to the Buyer.

         C.       Indemnity

                  The Seller acknowledges that SCTSC shall have no liability for
                  any product liability claim from the Seller, the Buyer or any
                  other person relating to or arising out of the Goods,
                  including but not limited to claims relating to the

                  damage or loss (economic or physical) suffered by the Buyer or
                  any other person arising out of the Goods supplied. The Seller
                  agrees to bear the full risk of defects in or due to the
                  nonconformity of the Goods. The Seller further agrees that it
                  shall hold SCTSC harmless and indemnify SCTSC from any and all
                  claims of the Buyer or any third party relating to any product

                  from the non-performance of the Seller, from defects in the
                  Goods or injury or loss arising from the Goods. The Seller
                  further acknowledges that SCTSC shall be excused from
                  performing any obligations hereunder which are prevented or
                  delayed by any occurrence not within its effective control

                  Goods, strikes, floods, fire, accidents, Acts of God or any
                  governmental orders or regulations.

         D.       On each date on which any amounts fall due for payment from
                  either SCTSC or the Seller under this Agreement for any
                  transaction, the party required to make such payment shall
                  effect such payment denominated in U.S. Dollars ("Dollars") by
                  payment in Dollars and in immediately available funds (or such
                  funds as may at the time be customary in the City of New York
                  for settlement in the City of New York of banking transactions
                  in Dollars) to such account in the United States of the other
                  party as such party may designate to the other in writing; or,
                  where such amount is denominated in any other currency, by
                  payment in such other currency and in immediately available
                  funds (or in such funds as may at the time be customary in the

                  of international banking transactions) to such account of the
                  other party as shall be specified by it in the Transaction
                  Confirmation.

         E.       All payments hereunder by the Buyer or by the Seller to SCTSC
                  shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any
                  set-off or counterclaim and without deduction for or on
                  account of any present or future taxes including but not
                  limited to duties, levies, sales or value added taxes and
                  imposts now or hereafter imposed. If the Buyer is required by
                  law to make any deduction or any withholding is required to be
                  made, the Seller shall ensure that the relevant payment shall
                  be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the
                  making of such deduction or withholding, SCTSC receives (free
                  from any liability in respect of any such deduction or
                  withholding) a net sum equal to the sum which would have been
                  received and so retained had no such deduction or withholding
                  been made.

5.       Event of Seller Default

         Each of the following events are herein defined as an "Event of Seller
         Default":

         A.       any representation, warranty or statement made in writing by
                  the Seller (or any of its officers, partners or members) in
                  this Agreement or any certificate or document delivered under
                  this Agreement shall have been incorrect or untrue in any
                  respect when made or repeated; or

         B.       the Seller shall fail to perform any covenant or agreement
                  contained herein or any of its obligations under this
                  Agreement or with respect to the Goods or the underlying
                  contract pertaining thereto; or

         C.       an "Event of Default" shall have occurred under and as defined
                  in the Letter of Credit Agreement.

         The Seller shall immediately notify SCTSC in writing of the occurrence
         of an Event of Seller Default or any event that, with the passage of
         time or the giving of notice, will constitute an Event of Seller
         Default ("Default"). During the continuance of an Event of Seller
         Default, SCTSC shall have the right (in addition to any other right or
         remedy SCTSC may have at law, in equity or under this Agreement,
         subject to the Intercreditor Agreement) to demand that the Seller
         deliver immediately, at the request of SCTSC to it

                                       10

<PAGE>

         or to any third party nominated by SCTSC for collection by such party
         (which may be an affiliate of SCTSC), any Qualified Receivable(s) held
         by SCTSC under any transaction.

6.       Event of Buyer Default

         Each of the following events are herein defined as the "Event of Buyer
         Default":

         A.       the filing of a petition in bankruptcy or for the appointment
                  of a receiver by or against the Buyer or any similar event; or

         B.       the Buyer's failure to pay within one Business Day after the
                  Invoice Due Date for the full amount of the Final Invoice to
                  SCTSC or to the Seller, as the case may be, by the Invoice Due
                  Date or to discharge any of its other obligations with respect
                  to the Goods or the underlying contract pertaining thereto for
                  any reason whatsoever or for no reason, including any claim
                  that the Goods are, in whole or in part, not suitable or not
                  consistent with the underlying contract of sale.

         The Seller shall immediately notify SCTSC in writing of the occurrence
         of an Event of Buyer Default or any event that, with the passage of
         time or the giving of notice, will constitute an Event of Buyer
         Default. If the Buyer's bankruptcy or failure to pay is due to any of
         the causes listed in Section 9 of this Agreement, SCTSC shall have the
         same limited recourse rights against the Seller as are described in
         Section 9 below.

                           upon written notice given by the Seller to SCTSC;

                                       11

<PAGE>

                  (ii)     Upon the earliest to occur of (x) an Event of Seller
                           Default, at SCTSC's election, (y) an Event of Buyer
                           Default, at SCTSC's election, and (z) the Initial
                           Maturity Date, unless extended pursuant to Section

                  (iii)    Upon payment in full in cash by the Seller of all of
                           the obligations owing to SCTSC hereunder.

                  The date that this Agreement terminates shall be referred to
                  as the "Termination Date".

         B.       Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, the

                  obligations of either party hereto with respect to any
                  Qualified Receivable(s) purchased prior to the effective date
                  of termination, unless SCTSC has not purchased the Qualified
                  Receivable(s) from the Seller, in which case SCTSC may treat
                  the purchase of said Qualified Receivable(s) as rescinded
                  without further obligation or liability of SCTSC.

         C.       On any date which is four Business Days prior to the Initial
                  Maturity Date, at the option of the Seller and upon written
                  notice to SCTSC, the Seller may extend the Maturity Date from
                  the Initial Maturity Date until a date no later than the
                  earlier of (a) twelve (12) calendar months after the Initial
                  Maturity Date and (b) August 30, 2004, upon payment to SCTSC
                  of a non-refundable extension fee in an amount equal to one
                  percent (1.0%) multiplied by the Maximum Commitment as of the
                  Initial Maturity Date.

9.       SCTSC Remedies

         The sale of the Qualified Receivable(s) herein is with limited recourse
         to the Seller. This right of limited recourse shall apply in the event
         of:

                  a)       rejection of documents presented to the Buyer and/or
         assertion by the Buyer of any commercial disputes concerning quantity,
         quality, specifications, suitability/merchantability or performance of
         the Goods, or the institution of any litigation, counterclaims,
         set-offs or write-offs, or

                  b)       assertion by the Buyer that the Pro-Forma Invoice,
         the Final Invoice and/or the Crude Oil Supply and Terminalling
         Agreement dated December 1, 1998 (as same may have been amended) (the
         "Oil Supply Contract") between the Seller and the Buyer that relates to
         a Qualified Receivable(s) was not adhered to, or

                  c)       the occurrence of any of the events or circumstances
         listed in Article 8 of the Oil Supply Contract or the termination or
         material amendment or modification to that Contract, or

                  d)       any one of the covenants, representations or
         warranties made by the Seller in this Agreement proving to have been
         incorrect in any material respect, or

                                       12

<PAGE>

                  e)       the Goods under any Qualified Receivable shall have
         been lost, destroyed or subjected to an event which could create an
         insurance claim of any nature, or

                  f)       if the Seller fails to issue to the Buyer (or the
         Buyer claims non-receipt of) a Final Invoice within forty-nine (49)
         days from the date of the Pro-Forma Invoice.

         Upon the occurrence of any of the foregoing circumstances or in the
         event of non-acceptance of the Goods by the Buyer for any reason (or
         for no reason), the Seller shall, upon demand, immediately return to
         SCTSC any monies received from SCTSC relating to said transaction,
         together with interest calculated at the Bank's Reference Rate in
         effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin, from the date of
         SCTSC's payment to the Seller to the date of SCTSC's receipt of full
         payment. SCTSC shall, upon receipt of payment in full from the Seller,
         assign all of its rights, title and interest in the Goods and/or assign
         any evidence of debt from the Buyer relating to said transaction to the
         Seller and shall have no further liability or obligation with respect
         to the transaction. The Seller shall be fully liable for any claims,
         costs, fines, levies, duties, interests, fees and/or penalties arising
         out of the Buyer's failure to accept the Goods, provided, however, that
         the Seller shall reimburse SCTSC for any reasonable costs and fees
         SCTSC may incur relating to the Buyer's non-acceptance of the Goods
         and/or fees and costs incurred in attempting to seek payment from the
         Buyer.

         C.       Further Assurances

                  Each party hereto represents and warrants that (i) it has the
                  capacity and has taken all necessary action (corporate and
                  otherwise) to enable it to enter into and perform its
                  obligations under this Agreement; (ii) upon execution of this
                  Agreement by or on behalf of such party, this Agreement
                  constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such
                  party; and (iii) execution and delivery by such party of this
                  Agreement and the consummation of each transaction herein
                  contemplated by such party is binding upon such party. In
                  addition, the Seller represents and warrants that none of the
                  Qualified Receivable(s) which are the subject of any
                  transaction hereunder will be, at the time of such transaction
                  or thereafter, subject to any lien or security interest held
                  by any third party (other than SCTSC), including, but not
                  limited to, any security filing under the Uniform Commercial
                  Code or any similar filing and that the Seller is the sole and
                  beneficial owner of all Qualified Receivable(s), except for
                  liens in favor of the Collateral Agent as provided in the
                  Intercreditor Agreement and the other Security Documents.

         D.       Integration

                  This Agreement shall supersede any prior agreements or
                  understandings between the parties as to the subject matter
                  hereof. The parties may from time to time elect by mutual
                  agreement to enter into transactions on terms different from
                  those contained herein, provided, that any such agreement
                  shall be evidenced by a writing signed by both parties.

         E.       Waivers and Amendments

                  Any waiver of any right hereunder shall be in writing and
                  shall be effective when signed by the party granting the
                  waiver. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall
                  be effective unless it is in writing and is signed by the
                  Seller and SCTSC. No such amendment shall take effect during
                  the pendency of the Case absent the entry of an order
                  authorizing such amendment.

         F.       Taxes

                  All payments relating to the transactions contemplated by this
                  Agreement shall be made free and clear of and without
                  deduction or withholding for any present or future taxes,
                  levies, imposts or duties imposed by any governmental
                  authority in any jurisdiction or by any political subdivision
                  or taxing authority thereof or therein. If any such taxes,
                  levies, imposts or duties are required to be withheld from any
                  payments made hereunder, the amounts so payable shall be
                  increased to the extent necessary to yield to SCTSC (after
                  deduction of all such taxes, levies, imposts or duties)
                  interest or any such other amounts as specified herein.

         G.       Assignment and Delegation

                  The Seller may not, without the consent of SCTSC, assign or
                  delegate any of its respective rights or obligations under
                  this Agreement. Provided that no Default or

                                       14

<PAGE>

                  Event of Seller Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
                  so long as the aggregate credit exposure of Standard Chartered
                  and SCTSC under the Credit Agreement and the Purchase
                  Agreements is reduced to $200,000,000 or less, SCTSC (and its
                  assigns) may, with the consent of the Seller (which consent
                  shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), assign any or
                  all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any
                  Eligible Assignee. Otherwise, upon consultation with EOTT OLP,
                  SCTSC (and its assigns) may assign any or all of its rights
                  and obligations under this Agreement to any Eligible Assignee.
                  As used herein, "Eligible Assignee" shall mean any commercial
                  bank, savings and loan association, savings bank, finance
                  company, insurance company, pension fund, mutual fund
                  investment company, investment fund, financial institution, or
                  other institutional lender (whether a corporation, partnership
                  or other entity) acceptable to SCTSC.

                  The parties hereto agree that this Agreement shall inure to
                  the benefit of any successor to such parties.

         H.       Agreement not Exclusive

                  The rights to indemnification and recourse to the Seller
                  provided to SCTSC under this Agreement shall be independent
                  of, and neither subject to nor in derogation of, any other
                  rights to which SCTSC may be entitled, including, without
                  limitation, any such rights which may be assertable under the
                  General Corporation Law of New York.

         I.       Severability

                  Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or
                  unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate the
                  remaining provisions hereof, which shall remain in full force
                  and effect, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in
                  any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable
                  such provision in any other jurisdiction.

         J.       Disclaimer of Warranty

                  SCTSC does not make and shall not be deemed to have made any
                  representation or warranty of any kind in favor of the Buyer
                  or any other person, including without limitation: any
                  representation concerning the title of SCTSC to the Goods; any
                  representation that SCTSC is a manufacturer, merchant or
                  dealer in goods; any representation or warranty, express or
                  implied, as to the merchantability, compliance with
                  specifications, design, operation, freedom from patent or
                  trademark infringement, absence of latent defects or fitness
                  for use of the Goods, or any other representations, express or
                  implied, with respect to the Goods. SCTSC shall not be liable
                  for any consequential damages.

         K.       Governing Law and Jurisdiction

                  THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED AND CONSTRUED UNDER THE LAWS
                  OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. THE SELLER HEREBY

claim (and the Proceeds thereof) is subject to the security interests provided
herein, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
the Collateral Agent.

Documents or otherwise, and each of which shall be upon and against (i) any and

any time existing against the Collateral Agent. The remedies of foreclosure and
offset are separate and cumulative, and either may be exercised independently of
the other without regard to procedures or restrictions applicable to the other.

         (e) Certain Credit Documents may permit other liens or security
interests to exist on the Collateral, but no such permission shall be construed
as an agreement to subordinate the liens and security interests in favor of the
Collateral Agent to such other liens and security interests.

         2.2. General Authority of the Collateral Agent over the Collateral and
Priority of Liens. Each of the Credit Parties hereby irrevocably constitutes and
appoints the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and any
officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution as among such officers
and agents, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full power and
authority in the name of such Credit Party or in its own name, from time to time
in the Collateral Agent's discretion to take any and all appropriate action and
to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or
desirable to carry out the terms of this Agreement and the Security Documents
and Orders and to accomplish the purposes hereof and thereof, including without
limitation the right and power to: (a) receive, take, endorse, assign, deliver,
accept, and deposit, in the name of the Collateral Agent or such Credit Party,
any and all cash, checks, commercial paper, drafts, remittances and other
instruments and documents relating to the Collateral, (b) receive, open and
dispose of all mail addressed to such Credit Party and notify postal authorities
to change the address for delivery thereof to such address as the Collateral
Agent may designate, (c) transmit to account debtors and any bailees notice of
the interest of the Collateral Agent in the Collateral or request from account
debtors or such bailees at any time, in the name of such Credit Party or the
Collateral Agent or any designee of the Collateral Agent, information concerning
the Collateral and any amount owing with respect thereto, (d) notify account
debtors to make payment directly to the Collateral Agent for deposit into the
Concentration Account, (e) take or bring, in the name of the Collateral Agent or
such Credit Party, all steps, actions, suits or proceedings deemed by the
Collateral Agent necessary or desirable to effect collection of the Collateral,
(f) enter such Credit Party's premises for the purpose of inspecting, verifying,
auditing, maintaining, preserving, protecting and removing the Collateral, (g)
obtaining, adjusting, compromising, settling and canceling insurance policies on
the Collateral and any claims thereunder, and (h) otherwise exercise, without
notice to or further assent by the Credit Parties, all remedies provided for by
the Security Documents and Orders. Each Credit Party hereby releases the
Collateral Agent, its officers, employees and designees from any Liability
arising from any act or acts under the authorizations granted under this
Agreement, the other Credit Documents or in furtherance hereof or thereof,
whether by omission or commission, and whether based upon any error of judgment
or mistake of law or fact, and the Credit Parties hereby ratify all that the
Collateral Agent shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. This
power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.
Notwithstanding any contrary provision contained in any Credit Document or in
the UCC, any applicable law or judicial decision, or whether any Secured Party
has possession of all or any part of the Collateral, as among the Secured
Parties the respective rights of each Secured Party in respect of liens and
security interests existing under the Security Documents shall at all times be
shared as provided herein.

         2.3. Notices of Actionable Defaults; Directions as to Enforcement
Actions.

                                       12

<PAGE>

         (a) Prior to the LC Agent and SCTSC declaring pursuant to the terms of
the LC Agreement or the Purchase Agreements, as applicable, that any and all of
the Credit Parties' obligations thereunder are to become due and payable prior
to the maturity thereof, each of the LC Agent and SCTSC will give five days'
prior notice of its intention to do so to the Term Lender Agent. In addition,
prior to the Term Lender Agent declaring pursuant to the terms of the Term Loan
Agreement that any and all of the Credit Parties' obligations thereunder are to
become due and payable prior to the maturity thereof, the Term Lender Agent will
give five days' prior notice of its intention to do so to the LC Agent. Upon
receipt of such notice, the LC Agent, the Term Lender Agent or SCTSC, as
applicable, shall have the right to declare, pursuant to the terms of the LC
Agreement, the Term Loan Agreement or the Purchase Agreements, as applicable,
that any and all of the Credit Parties' obligations thereunder are also to
become immediately due and payable at the same time.

         (b) Promptly upon receipt by the Collateral Agent of a Notice of
Actionable Default, the Collateral Agent shall simultaneously notify the LC
Agent (if other than the Collateral Agent), SCTSC, and the Term Lender Agent of
the receipt and the contents thereof, and the LC Agent and the Term Lender Agent
shall promptly send copies of such notice to the LC Participants and the Term
Lenders, respectively. So long as such Notice of Actionable Default is in
effect, the Collateral Agent shall exercise the rights and remedies provided in
this Agreement and in the Security Documents and Orders as directed by the
Required Secured Parties, except as otherwise provided herein. Unless otherwise
expressly authorized herein, the Collateral Agent is not authorized to take any
Enforcement Action unless a Notice of Actionable Default is in effect and the
Collateral Agent has obtained the requisite consent of the Required Secured
Parties as provided herein.

         (c) A Notice of Actionable Default delivered by an Administrative Agent
shall become effective upon actual receipt thereof by the Collateral Agent and
the other Administrative Agent. A Notice of Actionable Default, once effective,
shall remain in effect unless and until the Collateral Agent actually receives a
written notice of cancellation as provided in Section 2.1(d).

         (d) The Administrative Agent giving a Notice of Actionable Default
shall be entitled to cancel it by delivering a written notice of cancellation to
the Collateral Agent and the other Administrative Agent. The Collateral Agent
shall immediately notify the Credit Parties of the cancellation of any Notice of
Actionable Default.

         (e) Unless the Term Lender Agent consents thereto, SCTSC shall not take
any Enforcement Action with respect to the Linefill prior to the earliest of (i)
the SCTSC Maturity Date, (ii) the 31st day following the sending of a Notice of
Actionable Default by SCTSC to the Term Lender Agent, and (iii) the date on
which the Collateral Agent is directed by Required Secured Parties to take any
Enforcement Action against the Collateral.

         2.4. Right to Initiate Judicial Proceedings; Appointment of Receiver.
If a Notice of Actionable Default is in effect, the Collateral Agent, subject to
the provisions of Section 2.3(b) and of the Security Documents and Orders, (a)
shall have the right and power to institute and maintain such suits and
proceedings as it may deem appropriate to protect and enforce the rights vested
in it by this Agreement and each of the Security Documents and Orders

                                       13

<PAGE>

and (b) may either after entry, or without entry, proceed by suit or suits at
law or in equity to enforce such rights and to foreclose upon the Collateral and
to sell all or, from time to time, any of the Collateral under the judgment or
decree of a court of competent jurisdiction.

         2.5. Exercise of Powers; Instructions of Required Secured Parties.

         (a) All of the powers, remedies and rights of the Collateral Agent as
set forth in this Agreement may be exercised by the Collateral Agent in respect
of any of the Security Documents and Orders as though set forth in full therein,
and, upon the direction of the Required Secured Parties, all of the powers,
remedies and rights of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties as set forth
in any of the Security Documents and Orders may be exercised by the Collateral
Agent from time to time as herein and therein provided. In the event of any
inconsistency between this Agreement and any of the Security Documents and
Orders, the provisions of the Confirmation Order first, and then this Agreement
second, shall prevail.

         (b) The Required Secured Parties shall have the right, by one or more
instruments in writing executed and delivered to the Collateral Agent, to direct
the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for taking or refraining
from taking any Enforcement Action available to the Collateral Agent; provided
that (i) such direction shall not conflict with any provision of law or of this
Agreement or of any of the Security Documents and Orders, and (ii) the
Collateral Agent shall be adequately secured and indemnified as provided in
Section 5.11 and (iii) the written consent of all of the Secured Parties shall
be required before the Collateral Agent may foreclose on any real property owned
by any Credit Party that the Collateral Agent knows is contaminated with
materials that could reasonably be expected to give rise to any environmental
liability in excess of $50,000. At any time when either Administrative Agent
acting alone constitutes the Required Secured Parties, the Administrative Agents
shall attempt to coordinate their directions to the Collateral Agent, but each
Administrative Agent shall nonetheless be entitled to direct the Collateral
Agent to take specific affirmative actions to realize upon the Collateral and
neither Administrative Agent shall be entitled to direct the Collateral Agent to
cease taking any such affirmative action to realize upon the Collateral that the
Collateral Agent has been directed to take by the other Administrative Agent.
Nothing in this Section 2.4(b) shall impair the right of the Collateral Agent in
its discretion to take any action which it deems proper and which is not
inconsistent with the written instructions of the Required Secured Parties. In
the absence of such direction, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty to take
or refrain from taking any action unless explicitly required herein.

         (c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Actionable
Default with respect to which the Required Secured Parties have requested the
Collateral Agent to take one or more Enforcement Actions, the Collateral Agent
may take such Enforcement Action, including without limitation any of the
following:

               (i)    The Collateral Agent, at its discretion and without
         limitation, may enter upon any premises on or in which the Collateral
         may be located and take possession thereof and remove all or any of the
         Collateral from such premises for the purposes of effecting the sale,
         foreclosure or other disposition thereof or for any other purpose. Each
         Credit Party shall, at the request of the Collateral Agent, assemble
         the Collateral at such place or places as the Collateral Agent
         designates in its request. The Collateral Agent

                                       14

<PAGE>

         shall have the right to take possession of the Collateral or any
         portion thereof pursuant to the UCC or other applicable law. In the
         event the Collateral Agent institutes an action to recover any
         Collateral, or seeks recovery of any Collateral by way of prejudgment
         remedy, each Credit Party waives the posting of any bond which might
         otherwise be required.

               (ii)   The Collateral Agent may, at its discretion and without
         limitation, (1) collect, foreclose, receive, appropriate, set off and
         realize upon any and all Collateral, or (2) sell, lease, transfer,
         assign, deliver or otherwise dispose of any and all Collateral
         (including, without limitation, entering into contracts with respect
         thereto and by public or private sales at any exchange, broker's board,
         premises of any Credit Party, office of the Collateral Agent or
         elsewhere) at such prices or terms as the Collateral Agent may deem
         reasonable, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, with any
         Secured Party having the right to purchase the whole or any part of the
         Collateral at any such public sale, all of the foregoing being free
         from any right or equity of redemption of any Credit Party, which right
         or equity of redemption is hereby expressly waived and released by each
         Credit Party. If any of the Collateral is sold or leased by the
         Collateral Agent upon credit terms or for future delivery, the Secured
         Obligations shall not be reduced as a result thereof until indefeasible
         payment therefor is finally collected by the Collateral Agent. Ten (10)
         days prior notice by the Collateral Agent to the Credit Party owning
         any Collateral, designating the time and place of any public auction of
         such Collateral or the time after which any private sale or other
         disposition of such Collateral may take place, shall be deemed to be
         reasonable notice thereof, and each Credit Party waives any other
         notice.

         (d) The Credit Parties shall reimburse the Collateral Agent, on demand,
for all of its out-of-pocket costs and expenses in carrying out its duties
hereunder. The costs and expenses incurred or paid by the Collateral Agent with
respect to any Enforcement Action may include, without limitation, (i) expenses
of retaking, holding, assembling, preparing for sale or lease, advertising,
storing, repairing, completing, selling, leasing, foreclosing or otherwise
disposing of the Collateral, (ii) premiums on bonds and undertakings, (iii)
sales, use and other taxes, (iv) fees and expenses of custodians, warehousemen,
brokers, appraisers, auctioneers, sheriffs and others, (v) legal expenses and
attorneys' fees, (vi) travel and hotel expenses, and (vii) all other expenses
that may be incurred or paid by the Collateral Agent in attempting to collect
the Secured Obligations and to foreclose upon the Collateral.

         (e) Subject to the directions of the Required Secured Parties, the
Collateral Agent shall have the right at its sole discretion to determine which
Enforcement Actions to exercise and the order of their exercise, and the
Collateral Agent may at any time pursue, relinquish, subordinate, modify or take
any other action with respect thereto, without in any way modifying or affecting
any of the Secured Obligations. The Collateral Agent may, at any time or times,
proceed directly against any or all Credit Parties or any other guarantor or
other obligor on or in respect of the Secured Obligations to enforce payment of
the Secured Obligations and shall not be required to take any action of any kind
to preserve, collect or protect any Credit Party's rights in the Collateral.

                                       15

<PAGE>

         (f) Section 9-320 of the UCC provides for certain releases of
Collateral constituting personal property upon the sale thereof, and Sections
10(f)(i), (ii), (iv) and (v) of the Term Loan Agreement and Sections 7(f)(i),
(ii), (iv) and (v) of the LC Agreement authorize the Credit Parties to make
certain sales of equipment and inventory without the further consent of the
Secured Parties; such assets shall upon such sale be free of any liens or
security interests held by the Collateral Agent. In addition, if the assets
subject to the Purchase Agreements are sold by SCTSC to unaffiliated third
parties pursuant to the exercise of its rights thereunder, such assets shall
upon such sale be free of any liens or security interests held by the Collateral
Agent. If a Credit Party requests the Collateral Agent to confirm that any of
the foregoing sales was made free of the Collateral Agent's liens and security
interests, the Collateral Agent may give a release of such Collateral without
the need for any additional authorization from the Secured Parties. All other
releases of Collateral must be given in writing by the Collateral Agent and may
be given only with the consent of the LC Agent and the Term Lender Agent;
provided that the Credit Parties may, without such consent, sell the Designated
Assets for cash in arm's length transactions with Persons that are not their
affiliates.

         (g) The Collateral Agent shall deposit into the Concentration Account
all Proceeds and other cash that it obtains in any manner with respect to the
Collateral.

         2.6. Remedies Not Exclusive.

         (a) No remedy conferred upon or reserved to the Collateral Agent herein
on its behalf or on behalf of the Secured Parties or in the Security Documents
and Orders is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy or remedies, but
every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other
remedy conferred herein or in any of the Security Documents and Orders or now or
hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute.

         (b) No delay or omission by the Collateral Agent to exercise any right,
remedy or power hereunder or under any of the Security Documents and Orders
shall impair any such right, remedy or power or shall be construed to be a
waiver thereof, and every right, power and remedy given by this Agreement or any
of the Security Documents and Orders to the Collateral Agent may be exercised
from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by the Collateral
Agent.

         (c) If the Collateral Agent shall have proceeded to enforce any right,
remedy or power under this Agreement or any of the Security Documents and Orders
and the proceeding for the enforcement thereof shall have been discontinued or
abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the
Collateral Agent, then the Credit Parties, the Collateral Agent and the Secured
Parties shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, severally and
respectively be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder or
thereunder and in all other respects, and thereafter all rights, remedies and
powers of the Collateral Agent shall continue as though no such proceeding had
been taken.

         (d) All rights of action and of asserting claims upon or under this
Agreement and the Security Documents and Orders may be enforced by the
Collateral Agent without the possession of any document or instrument evidencing
or relating to any Secured Obligation or the production thereof at any trial or
other proceeding relative thereto; any suit or proceeding

                                       16

<PAGE>

instituted by the Collateral Agent shall be, subject to Section 5.5(c), brought
in its name as Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties; and any
recovery of judgment shall be held as part of the Collateral and distributed in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

         2.7. Waiver and Estoppel.

         (a) Each of the Credit Parties agrees, to the extent it may lawfully do
so, that it will not at any time in any manner whatsoever claim or take the
benefit or advantage of, any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension,
moratorium, turnover or redemption law, or any law permitting it to direct the
order in which the Collateral shall be sold, now or at any time hereafter in
force, which may delay, prevent or otherwise affect the performance or
enforcement of this Agreement or any of the Security Documents and Orders and
hereby waives all benefit or advantage of all such laws and covenants, to the
extent that it may lawfully do so, that it will not hinder, delay or impede the
execution of any power granted to the Collateral Agent in this Agreement or any
of the Security Documents and Orders but will suffer and permit the execution of
every such power as though no such law were in force.

         (b) Each of the Credit Parties, to the extent it may lawfully do so, on
behalf of itself and all who claim through or under it, including, without
limitation, any and all subsequent creditors, vendees, assignees and lienors,
waives and releases all rights to demand or to have any marshalling of the
Collateral upon any sale, whether made under any power of sale granted herein or
in any of the Security Documents and Orders or pursuant to judicial proceedings
or upon any foreclosure or any enforcement of this Agreement or any of the
Security Documents and Orders and consents and agrees that all the Collateral
may at any such sale be offered and sold as an entirety.

         (c) Each of the Credit Parties waives, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, presentment, demand, protest and any notice of any kind
(including, without limitation, notice of intent to accelerate maturity or
notice of acceleration of maturity) in connection with this Agreement and the
Credit Documents and any action taken by the Collateral Agent with respect to
the Collateral. Each of the Credit Parties acknowledges that all of the Secured
Parties are relying on all documents, certificates and opinions that are
delivered to the Collateral Agent under this Agreement.

         2.8. Limitation on Collateral Agent's Duty in Respect of Collateral.
Beyond its duties as to the custody thereof expressly provided herein or in any
of the Security Documents and Orders and to account to the Secured Parties for
Proceeds and other property received by it hereunder or under any of the
Security Documents and Orders, the Collateral Agent shall not have any duty to
the Credit Parties or to the Secured Parties as to any Collateral in its
possession or control or in the possession or control of any of its agents or
nominees, or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against
prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto.

         2.9. Limitation by Law. All rights, remedies and powers provided herein
may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate
any applicable provision of law, and all the provisions hereof are intended to
be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law which may be
controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they

                                       17

<PAGE>

will not render this Agreement invalid, unenforceable in whole or in part or not
entitled to be recorded, registered or filed under the provisions of any
applicable law.

                      SECTION 3. COLLECTIONS AND ACCOUNTS

         3.1. Authorized Accounts.

         (a) Establishment of Accounts. The Authorized Accounts have been
established, and the Credit Parties have no other bank accounts. Borrower will
have no other bank accounts unless the Collateral Agent consents and such other
accounts are put under the control of the Collateral Agent.

         (b) Collateral Agent Control. From and after the Closing Date and for
so long as any LC shall be outstanding and until all amounts due or to become
due in respect of any of the Secured Obligations have been paid in full in cash,
each Authorized Account shall be maintained in the name of and under the sole
dominion and control of the Collateral Agent, except to the extent otherwise
contemplated herein. The Credit Parties' sole rights in the Authorized Accounts
will be (i) to permit automatic clearinghouse debits to the Collection Accounts
for the benefit of various taxing jurisdictions and payroll, but only until the
Collateral Agent notifies the Credit Parties to transfer all such deposits to
the Concentration Account, (ii) to make withdrawals from the Funding Account for
deposit into any of the Disbursement Accounts and to make payments out of the
Disbursement Accounts in compliance with the terms of the Credit Documents, the
Bankruptcy Plan and the Confirmation Order and (iii) to direct the Collateral
Agent as to the investment of moneys held in certain Authorized Accounts as
permitted by Section 3.4(a). In no event shall any amounts or Permitted
Investments deposited into, or credited to, any Authorized Account, be
registered in the name of any Credit Party, payable to the order of any Credit
Party, or specially endorsed to any Credit Party.

         (c) Collection Accounts. Concurrently with the execution hereof (or
promptly thereafter), each Credit Party shall instruct all account debtors and
other persons or entities that make payments to such Credit Party on any
accounts or other rights to payment (including all proceeds of each purchase by
SCTSC pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement and excluding only the Koch
Payments to be made to SCTSC and all purchase price payments for any Designated
Assets) to make such payments directly to one of the Collection Accounts or to
the Concentration Account. In addition to the foregoing, each Credit Party
agrees that if any such payments, or any proceeds of any Collateral, are
nonetheless received by it, such Credit Party shall as promptly as possible
deposit such proceeds into one of the Collection Accounts or the Concentration
Account. Until so deposited, all such proceeds shall be held in trust by such
Credit Party for the Collateral Agent and shall not be commingled with any other
funds or property of such Credit Party, and such Credit Party will not adjust,
settle or compromise the amount or payment of any such account or other right to
payment or release wholly or partly any account debtor or obligor thereof or
allow any credit or discount thereon.

         (d) Concentration Account. Except for the automatic clearinghouse
debits to the Collection Accounts as authorized under subsection (b)(i) above,
all collected amounts in the Collections Accounts shall be removed and
transferred to the Concentration Account on a nightly basis (provided that (i)
the Canadian Accounts may be swept on a monthly basis until the

                                       18

<PAGE>

Collateral Agent otherwise requests, (ii) Southwest Bank shall not be required
to make any such transfer of less than $100,000 and (iii) Southwest Bank may,
from time to time, withhold its reasonable and agreed fees for its services in
connection with such accounts). All such transfers to the Collateral Agent shall
be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

         (e) Debt Service Payment Account. Each Administrative Agent may direct
the Collateral Agent to transfer funds from the Concentration Account to the
Debt Service Payment Account in amounts not exceeding (i) all payments then due
and payable on the Secured Obligations or expected to become due and payable by
the next Monthly Payment Date, plus (without duplication) (ii) any excess of the
LC Obligations over the Borrowing Base. To the extent of the available funds in
the Concentration Account, the Collateral Agent shall make all such requested
transfers into the Debt Service Payment Account. The Collateral Agent shall
apply all funds deposited into the Debt Service Payment Account as provided in
Section 3.2. Any funds on deposit in the Debt Service Payment Account after such
applications shall continue to be held in the Debt Service Payment Account, if
less than $1,000,000, and shall be transferred to the Funding Account if
$1,000,000 or more. Each Administrative Agent will promptly furnish EOTT OLP
with a copy of any direction to the Collateral Agent given as provided above,
specifying the amount and date of the transfer of funds to the Debt Service
Account.

         (f) LC Collateral Account. The LC Collateral Account will be funded
with deposits from the Debt Service Payment Account, as provided in Section 3.2.
Upon the occurrence of any Triggering Event, all amounts then on deposit in the
LC Collateral Account shall be used to make distributions in accordance with
clauses FIRST, SECOND, and THIRD of Section 3.2(b) and all amounts thereafter
deposited in the LC Collateral Account shall be used as provided in Section
3.2(b)(ii). Prior to the occurrence of any Triggering Event, all amounts from
time to time deposited in the LC Collateral Account shall be held by the
Collateral Agent and used from time to time to make payments on account of
Matured LC Obligations as described in the last sentence of Section 3.2(a). Any
funds not so used shall continue to be held in the LC Collateral Account,
provided that on the first Business Day after each Monthly Payment Date, if
there are no Matured LC Obligations then outstanding and if the LC Obligations
do not then exceed the Borrowing Base, the Collateral Agent shall transfer to
the Concentration Account any funds remaining in the LC Collateral Account.

         (g) Funding and Disbursement Accounts. After making all payments into
the Debt Service Payment Account that are required above, the Collateral Agent
will transfer the funds remaining in the Concentration Account into the Funding
Account as requested by the Borrowers. The Borrowers will transfer such funds
from the Funding Account to the various Disbursement Accounts and will use the
funds in the Disbursement Accounts to pay their accounts payable (including any
payments on the Secured Obligations that may be required due to shortfalls in
the Debt Service Payment Account), in accordance with the requirements of the
Credit Documents and all applicable orders of the Bankruptcy Court.

         3.2. Payments from Debt Service Payment Account.

         (a) Prior to Triggering Event.

                                       19

<PAGE>

               (i)   So long as no Triggering Event shall have occurred, the
         Collateral Agent shall on each Monthly Payment Date, based on the
         instructions it has received from each Administrative Agent, distribute
         all funds then on deposit in the Debt Service Payment Account in the
         following manner and order of priority:

               FIRST, to the payment of expense reimbursements and indemnities
         then due and owing to the Secured Parties under this Agreement or the
         Credit Documents, with any partial payments being allocated to the
         Secured Parties in proportion to the amounts so due and owing;

               SECOND, to the payment of all amounts then due and owing with
         respect to the Tier-A Term Loan Exposure and the Tier-A Standard
         Chartered Exposure, allocated in accordance with the amounts so due and
         owing;

               THIRD, to the payment of all other Term Loan Obligations, LC
         Obligations, Overdraft Obligations, and SCTSC Shortfall Obligations
         then due and owing, allocated in accordance with the amounts so due and
         owing; and

               FOURTH, for deposit in the LC Collateral Account, an amount equal
         to the excess, if any, of the LC Exposure over the Borrowing Base on
         such Monthly Payment Date (determined after giving effect to the
         payments described in clauses SECOND and THIRD above).

               (ii)  In addition, and notwithstanding the foregoing, to the
         extent that drawings are made on any Letters of Credit, the Collateral
         Agent may from time to time, but subject to Section 3.2(d) below,
         distribute funds from the Debt Service Payment Account (or any other
         Authorized Account) to the LC Agent, for the account of the LC Issuer,
         as needed to allow the Credit Parties to reimburse the LC Issuer for
         such drawings.

         (b) After a Triggering Event.

               (i) After any Triggering Event has occurred, the Collateral Agent
         shall (subject to the special applications provided for in Section
         3.3), at each time that it distributes funds for application to the
         Secured Obligations, apply such funds in the following manner and order
         of priority:

               FIRST, to the payment or reimbursement of the Collateral Agent
         for all reasonable costs, expenses, disbursements and losses which
         shall have been incurred by the Collateral Agent (i) in connection with
         the collection of such funds by the Collateral Agent and the
         administration of this Agreement, or (ii) for the exercise, protection
         or enforcement by the Collateral Agent of all or any of the rights,
         remedies, powers and privileges of the Collateral Agent under this
         Agreement and the other Credit Documents or in respect of the
         Collateral;

               SECOND, to the payment of all Tier-A Term Loan Exposure and all
         Tier-A Standard Chartered Exposure at such time, allocated in
         accordance with the proportionate amounts of Tier-A Term Loan Exposure
         and Tier-A Standard Chartered Exposure that existed as of the effective
         time of such Triggering Event; and

                                       20

<PAGE>

               THIRD, to the payment of all Tier-B Term Loan Exposure and all
         Tier-B Standard Chartered Exposure, allocated in accordance with the
         proportionate amounts of Tier-B Term Loan Exposure and Tier-B Standard
         Chartered Exposure that existed as of the effective time of such
         Triggering Event (provided that SCTSC may, by notice to the Collateral
         Agent and both Administrative Agents, elect to defer all of such
         payments on the Tier-B Obligations (or any portion of such payments
         acceptable to both Administrative Agents) for a period of up to 120
         days while SCTSC eliminates any contingencies in the calculation of the
         SCTSC Shortfall Obligations.

               (ii) To the extent that any portion of the Tier-A Standard
         Chartered Exposure referred to in the foregoing clause SECOND consists
         of amounts that the LC Issuer might be called upon to advance under
         undrawn Letters of Credit rather than amounts actually owing, then the
         Collateral Agent shall deposit all amounts otherwise payable on account
         of such contingent advances into the LC Collateral Account and, if
         drawings are thereafter actually made on such undrawn Letters of
         Credit, the Collateral Agent shall distribute such funds to the LC
         Agent to be used to reimburse the LC Issuer for such drawings. To the
         extent that any portion of the Tier-B Standard Chartered Exposure
         referred to in the foregoing clause THIRD consists of amounts that the
         LC Issuer might be called upon to advance under undrawn Letters of
         Credit rather than amounts actually owing, then the Collateral Agent
         shall deposit all amounts otherwise payable on account of such
         contingent advances into the LC Collateral Account and, if drawings are
         thereafter actually made on such undrawn Letters of Credit, the
         Collateral Agent shall distribute such funds to the LC Agent to be used
         to reimburse the LC Issuer for such drawings. To the extent that any
         such Letters of Credit terminate without being drawn, the Collateral
         Agent shall use such funds to make distributions in accordance with the
         foregoing clauses FIRST, SECOND, and THIRD of this subsection (b).

         (c) Payment Obligations Absolute. Payments on the Secured Obligations
must be made in accordance with the foregoing priorities whether or not there
are sufficient funds on deposit in the Debt Service Payment Account to make all
payments due on the Secured Obligations at the time in question, but compliance
with such priorities do not relieve Borrowers of their duty to provide funds
sufficient to make all payments of the Secured Obligations whenever they become
due.

         (d) Matured LC Obligations; Optional Triggering Event. The LC Issuer
will notify the Borrowers, in accordance with its customary practices (and will
provide the Term Lender Agent with a copy of each such notice) of any drawings
made on Letters of Credit. If, during any calendar month, drawings are made on
Letters of Credit in an aggregate amount that exceeds $15,000,000, then the
Collateral Agent will suspend making distributions in excess of $15,000,000 to
the LC Agent as provided in Section 3.2(a)(ii) and will instead retain in the
Debt Service Account the funds in excess of $15,000,000 that would have
otherwise been distributed to the LC Agent. The Collateral Agent will give
written notice of such suspension to each Administrative Agent, and the Term
Lender Agent (as instructed by the "Majority Term Lenders", as defined in the
Term Loan Agreement) will have up to ten Business Days from the receipt of such
notice to elect to designate such drawings in excess of $15,000,000 as a
Triggering Event or to elect not to designate such drawings in excess of
$15,000,000 as a Triggering Event. Any such election must be made in writing
given to the Collateral Agent, with

                                       21

<PAGE>

copies given to the Credit Parties. (Failure to give any such notice within such
ten Business Day period will be deemed an election not to designate such
drawings as a Triggering Event.) Notwithstanding anything herein or in the
Credit Documents to the contrary, from the time such suspension occurs until the
Term Lender Agent (as directed by the Majority Term Lenders) elects (or is
deemed to have elected) whether or not to designate such a Triggering Event: (i)
the LC Issuer shall not be obligated to issue any Letters of Credit or allow any
Overdraft Obligations to be created, (ii) SCTSC shall not be obligated to
advance any funds under the Receivables Purchase Agreement or remit to the
Credit Parties any amounts then due by SCTSC to the Credit Parties, (iii) the
Credit Parties will not be obligated to reimburse such drawings in excess of
$15,000,000, and (iv) the Credit Parties' rights to use funds in the
Disbursement Accounts shall be suspended; provided that if the Term Lender Agent
(as directed by the Majority Term Lenders) elects (or is deemed to have elected)
not to designate such drawings as a Triggering Event, then all such obligations
shall be restored and shall be promptly performed. The Credit Parties will pay
interest to the LC Issuer at the "Default Rate" provided for in the LC Agreement
on any reimbursement obligations for such drawings in excess of $15,000,000 for
the period of time that such reimbursements are deferred.

         3.3. Special Payments. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of
Sections 3.1 and 3.2:

         (a) Sales of Designated Assets. Borrowers shall cause all proceeds (net
of costs of sale) from the sale of the Designated Assets to be paid directly to
the Collateral Agent for deposit into the Debt Service Payment Account. Upon
receipt, the Collateral Agent shall, on behalf of EOTT OLP, provide the first
$75,000,000 of cumulative proceeds to SCTSC (or as much thereof as is needed) to
repay and retire, in whole or in part, either or both of the Purchase Agreements
(including associated interest, yield, fees and collection costs or other costs
under such Purchase Agreements), provided that each Purchase Agreement shall
remain in effect, and provide liquidity to EOTT OLP, to the extent not repaid in
full. To the extent that any portion of such $75,000,000 remains, and to the
extent there are any additional cumulative proceeds in excess of $75,000,000,
the Collateral Agent shall pay such remaining or additional cumulative proceeds
so received to the Term Lenders, as directed by the Term Lender Agent, as
prepayments on the Tier-A Term Loans.

         (b) Koch Payments. On or before the date hereof, EOTT LP and SCTSC
shall have instructed Koch Supply and Trading L.P. to make all Koch Payments
directly to the SCTSC Collection Account. The SCTSC Collection Account is not an
account of Borrower but an account of SCTSC. Funds in the SCTSC Collection
Account shall be applied to the payments required by the Receivables Purchase
Agreement. After collecting each Koch Payment and applying such payment to the
payments then required under the Receivables Purchase Agreement (including
associated interest, yield, fees and collection costs or other costs under the
Receivables Purchase Agreement), SCTSC shall, if a Triggering Event has
occurred, apply the remainder of such payment to repay and retire the Crude Oil
Purchase Agreement in full (including associated interest, yield, fees and
collection costs or other costs under the Crude Oil Purchase Agreement). To the
extent that there are any remaining funds from such Koch Payment, SCTSC shall
promptly transfer such remaining funds to the Concentration Account, whereupon
the funds so transferred shall constitute Collateral for all purposes.

                                       22

<PAGE>

         (c) Linefill Sales. Upon any default by Borrower in making the
repurchase payments required under the Crude Oil Purchase Agreement, Borrower
and SCTSC and the Collateral Agent will cause all proceeds from any Linefill
Sales (and all proceeds from any hedging contract purchased by the Credit
Parties for the benefit of SCTSC pursuant to the Crude Oil Purchase Agreement)
to be deposited directly into the SCTSC Collection Account. The funds so
deposited shall be applied (i) first, to repay and retire the Crude Oil Purchase
Agreement in full (including associated interest, yield, fees and collection
costs or other costs under the Crude Oil Purchase Agreement), and (ii) second,
to repay and retire the Receivables Purchase Agreement in full (including
associated interest, yield, fees and collection costs or other costs under the
Receivables Purchase Agreement). SCTSC shall then promptly transfer any
remaining portion of such funds to the Concentration Account, whereupon the
funds so transferred shall constitute Collateral for all purposes. (The
provisions of this subsection (c) do not modify the provisions of Section 2.3(b)
that require the Collateral Agent to obtain the consent of the Required Secured
Parties before taking any Enforcement Action to cause Linefill Sales to occur.)

         3.4. Other Agreements about Authorized Accounts.

         (a) Investments of Balances in Authorized Accounts. All amounts on
deposit in each Authorized Account (other than the Collections Account) shall,
until applied as provided above, be invested and re-invested from time to time
in such Cash Equivalents as the Borrower Representative (or, if an Actionable
Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent) shall determine,
which Cash Equivalents shall be held in the name and be under the control of the
Collateral Agent until liquidated and applied. Any income received by the
Collateral Agent with respect to the balance from time to time standing to the
credit of any Authorized Accounts, including any interest on or proceeds of such
Cash Equivalents, shall also remain, or be deposited, in the same Authorized
Account.

         (b) Authorized Accounts Part of Collateral. All of the Credit Parties'
right, title and interest in and to the amounts on deposit from time to time in
the Authorized Accounts, together with any investments thereof in Cash
Equivalents and any interest thereon or other proceeds thereof, shall be
included in the Collateral and shall be subject in all respects to the Liens and
security interests created under this Agreement.

         (c) Agreement to Honor Waterfall. Should any Credit Party or Secured
Party receive any funds to be applied to the Secured Obligations from any source
whatsoever which funds have not been distributed to the Secured Parties in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 3, such Credit Party or Secured
Party shall immediately deposit such funds into the appropriate account in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 3 (and shall, prior to such
deposit, hold such funds in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties). The
parties hereto irrevocably consent and direct that all Tier-A Obligations shall
be paid in full prior to any payment on any Tier-B Obligations, except such
payments as are expressly permitted by this Section 3, and the Borrowers and the
Guarantors agree not make, and the Secured Parties agree not to accept or
receive, any payment or benefit in cash, by setoff or otherwise, directly or
indirectly, on account of principal, interest or any other amounts owing on any
of the Tier-B Obligations except such payments as are expressly permitted
herein.

                                       23

<PAGE>

         (d) Collateral Agent's Calculations. In making the determinations and
allocations required hereunder, the Collateral Agent may rely upon information
supplied by SCB as to the amounts payable with respect to the LC Obligations and
upon information supplied by the Term Lender Agent as to the amounts payable
with respect to the Term Loans, and upon information supplied by SCTSC as to the
amounts payable with respect to the Purchase Agreements. The Collateral Agent
shall have no duty to inquire as to the application by the LC Agent, the Term
Lender Agent or SCTSC of any amounts distributed to them by the Collateral
Agent.

                  SECTION 4. AGREEMENTS WITH COLLATERAL AGENT

         4.1. Delivery of Credit Documents. The Credit Parties have delivered to
the Collateral Agent and the Term Lender Agent true and complete copies of all
Credit Documents as in effect on the date hereof (including all amendments,
supplements and other modifications thereto). The Credit Parties shall deliver
to the Collateral Agent and the Term Lender Agent, promptly upon the execution
thereof, a true and complete copy of all amendments, modifications or
supplements to any Credit Document entered into after the date hereof. Upon the
request of any Secured Party, the Credit Parties shall deliver such copies to
such Secured Party.

         4.2. Indemnification by Credit Parties. Without in any way limiting any
of its indemnification obligations under the LC Agreement or the Term Loan
Agreement, each of the Credit Parties agrees to indemnify the Collateral Agent
(in its capacity as such, but not otherwise), jointly and severally, from and
against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind
whatsoever (in this section, "Losses") which may at any time (including, without
limitation, at any time following the payment of the Secured Obligations) be
imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Collateral Agent in any way
relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the Security Documents
and Orders, or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or
the transactions contemplated thereby or any action taken or omitted by the
Collateral Agent hereunder or thereunder or in connection therewith (whether
arising in contract or in tort or otherwise and including any violation or
noncompliance with environmental laws by any Person or any liabilities or duties
of any Person with respect to hazardous materials found in or released into the
environment), provided that no Credit Party shall be liable for the payment of
any portion of such Losses to the extent resulting from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of the Collateral Agent. The agreements in this Section 4.2
shall survive the payment of the Secured Obligations and all other amounts
payable hereunder and the termination of this Agreement.

         4.3. Filing Fees, Excise Taxes, Etc. The Credit Parties jointly and
severally agree to pay or to reimburse the Collateral Agent and each other
Secured Party for any and all payments made by the Collateral Agent in respect
of all search, filing, recording and registration fees, taxes, excise taxes and
other similar imposts which may be payable or determined to be payable in
respect of the execution and delivery of this Agreement and any of the Security
Documents and Orders. The obligations of the Credit Parties under this section
shall survive the termination of the other provisions of this Agreement and the
repayment of the Secured Obligations.

SECTION 5.            THE COLLATERAL AGENT

         5.1. Appointment.

         (a) Each of the Secured Parties hereby designates and appoints SCB as
the Collateral Agent for such Secured Party under this Agreement and the
Security Documents and Orders and authorizes SCB, as the Collateral Agent, to
take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the
Security Documents and Orders and to exercise such powers and perform such
duties as are expressly delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms of this
Agreement, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the
Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those
expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary or trustee relationship with any
Secured Party, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties,
obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist
against the Collateral Agent.

         (b) Secured Parties hereby appoint the Collateral Agent as agent for
the purposes of perfecting the security interest in assets which, in accordance
with Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code, can be perfected by possession
only, including without limitation the shares of stock or other certificated
securities of any Person pledged pursuant to any Security Document, and the
Collateral Agent hereby acknowledges that it shall hold any such Collateral, for
the ratable benefit of all Secured Parties in accordance with this Agreement.

         (c) Subject to the requirements of Section 2.5 relating to the
instructions of the Required Secured Parties, each Secured Party hereby
authorizes, and each LC Participant or Term Lender which is or hereafter becomes
a party to the LC Agreement or the Term Loan Agreement, as applicable, shall be
deemed to authorize, the Collateral Agent to take such action on its behalf
hereunder and under the provisions of the Security Documents and any other
instrument and agreement referred to therein or now or hereafter delivered
thereunder and to exercise such powers thereunder as are specifically delegated
to or required of the Collateral Agent by the terms thereof, subject to the
provisions hereof.

         5.2. Exculpatory Provisions.

         (a) The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible in any manner
whatsoever for the correctness of any recitals, statements, representations or
warranties herein, all of which are made solely by the Credit Parties. The
Collateral Agent makes no representations as to the value or condition of the
Collateral or any part thereof, or as to the title of any Credit Party thereto
or as to the security afforded by this Agreement or any of the Security
Documents and Orders, or as to the validity, execution, enforceability, legality
or sufficiency of this Agreement, the Security Documents and Orders or the
Secured Obligations, and the Collateral Agent shall incur no liability or
responsibility in respect of any such matters. The Collateral Agent shall not be
responsible for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges or
assessments or discharging of liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the
maintenance of the Collateral.

         (b) The Collateral Agent shall not be required to ascertain or inquire
as to performance by any Credit Party of any of the covenants or agreements
contained herein or in

                                       25

<PAGE>

any of the Security Documents and Orders or Credit Document. Whenever it is
necessary, or in the opinion of the Collateral Agent advisable, for the
Collateral Agent to ascertain the amount of Secured Obligations then held by the
Secured Parties, the Collateral Agent may rely on a certificate of the LC Agent,
in the case of the LC Obligations, of the Term Lender Agent, in the case of the
Term Loan Obligations, and of SCTSC, in the case of the SCTSC Shortfall
Obligations.

         (c) The Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation or duty to take
any action under this Agreement or any of the Security Documents and Orders if
taking such action (i) would subject the Collateral Agent to a tax in any
jurisdiction where it is not then subject to a tax or (ii) would require the
Collateral Agent to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not
then so qualified, unless the Collateral Agent receives security or indemnity
satisfactory to it against such tax (or equivalent liability), or any liability
resulting from such qualification, in each case as results from the taking of
such action under this Agreement or any of the Security Documents and Orders.

         (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the
Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken
by it in accordance with this Agreement or the Security Documents and Orders
except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

         (e) The parties hereto acknowledge that the Collateral Agent is an LC
Participant and the LC Issuer under the LC Agreement and shall have the same
rights with respect to any Secured Obligation owed to it as any other Secured
Party and may exercise such rights as though it were not the Collateral Agent
hereunder, and may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in
any kind of business or conduct with any Credit Party or any of its subsidiaries
or affiliates as if it were not the Collateral Agent.

         5.3. Delegation of Duties. The Collateral Agent may execute any of the
powers hereof and perform any duty hereunder either directly or by or through
agents or attorneys-in-fact who may include officers or employees of any Credit
Party. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning
all matters pertaining to such powers and duties. The Collateral Agent shall not
be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or
attorneys-in-fact selected by it provided that such selection occurs without
gross negligence or willful misconduct.

         5.4. Reliance by Collateral Agent.

         (a) Whenever in the administration of this Agreement or the Security
Documents and Orders the Collateral Agent shall deem it necessary or desirable
that a factual matter be proved or established in connection with the Collateral
Agent taking, suffering or omitting to take any action hereunder or thereunder,
such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof is herein specifically
prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively proved or established by a
certificate of an officer of any Credit Party delivered to the Collateral Agent,
and such certificate shall be full warrant to the Collateral Agent for any
action taken, suffered or omitted in reliance thereon, subject, however, to the
provisions of Section 5.5.

                                       26

<PAGE>

         (b) The Collateral Agent may consult with counsel, and any advice or
statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to any
Credit Party) shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect
of any action taken or suffered by it hereunder or under any of the Security
Documents and Orders in good faith in accordance therewith.

         (c) The Collateral Agent may rely, and shall be fully protected in
acting, upon any resolution, statement, certificate, instrument, opinion,
report, notice, request, consent, order, bond or other paper or document
believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper
party or parties or, in the case of cables, telecopies and telexes, to have been
sent by the proper party or parties. In the absence of its gross negligence or
willful misconduct, the Collateral Agent may conclusively rely, as to the truth
of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon
any certificates or opinions furnished to the Collateral Agent and conforming to
the requirements of this Agreement.

         (d) The Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to exercise
any of the rights or powers vested in the Collateral Agent by this Agreement and
the Security Documents and Orders at the request or direction of the Required
Secured Parties or otherwise unless the Collateral Agent shall have been
provided adequate security and indemnity against the costs, expenses and
liabilities which may be incurred by it in taking such action or in compliance
with such request or direction.

         5.5. Limitations on Duties of Collateral Agent.

         (a) The Collateral Agent shall be obligated to perform such duties and
only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement and the
Security Documents and Orders, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be
read into this Agreement or any of the Security Documents and Orders against the
Collateral Agent. If and so long as a Notice of Actionable Default is in effect,
the Collateral Agent shall, subject to the provisions of Section 2.3(b),
exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement and the Security
Documents and Orders, and shall not be liable with respect to any action taken
by it, or omitted to be taken by it, in accordance with the direction of the
Required Secured Parties.

         (b) Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, the Collateral Agent
shall not be under any obligation to take any action which is discretionary with
the Collateral Agent under the provisions hereof or of any of the Security
Documents and Orders except upon the written request of the Required Secured
Parties.

         (c) No provision of this Agreement or of any of the Security Documents
and Orders shall be deemed to impose any duty or obligation on the Collateral
Agent to perform any act or acts or exercise any right, power, duty or
obligation conferred or imposed on it, in any jurisdiction in which it shall be
illegal, or in which the Collateral Agent shall be unqualified or incompetent,
to perform any such act or acts or to exercise any such right, power, duty or
obligation or if such performance or exercise would constitute doing business by
the Collateral Agent in such jurisdiction or impose a tax on the Collateral
Agent by reason thereof.

         5.6. Resignation and Removal of the Collateral Agent.

                                       27

<PAGE>

         (a) The Collateral Agent may at any time, by giving written notice to
the Credit Parties, the LC Agent, and the Term Lender Agent, resign and be
discharged of the responsibilities hereby created, such resignation to become
effective upon (i) the appointment of a successor Collateral Agent, (ii) the
acceptance of such appointment by such successor Collateral Agent and (iii) the
delivery to the successor Collateral Agent of any documents in the possession of
the Collateral Agent that it is holding in such capacity. As promptly as
practicable after the giving of any such notice, the LC Agent and the Term
Lender Agent, acting together, shall appoint a successor Collateral Agent. If no
successor Collateral Agent shall be appointed and shall have accepted such
appointment within 90 days after the Collateral Agent gives the aforesaid notice
of resignation, the Collateral Agent may appoint a successor Collateral Agent to
act until such time, if any, as a successor shall have been appointed as
provided in this subsection. Any successor so appointed by the Collateral Agent
shall immediately and without further act be superseded by any successor
Collateral Agent appointed by the LC Agent and the Term Lender Agent, acting
together, as provided in this Section 5.6. The LC Agent and the Term Lender
Agent, acting together, may at any time, after giving 5 Business Days' prior
written notice thereof to the Credit Parties, remove the Collateral Agent and
appoint a successor Collateral Agent, such removal to be effective upon the
acceptance of such appointment by the successor; provided, however, that the
Collateral Agent shall not be released from any liability hereby created until
such time as it shall deliver to the successor Collateral Agent any documents in
its possession that it is holding in its capacity as Collateral Agent. The
Collateral Agent that has resigned or been removed shall be entitled to fees,
costs and expenses to the extent incurred or arising, or relating to events
occurring, before its resignation or removal.

         (b) If at any time the Collateral Agent shall resign or be removed or
otherwise become incapable of acting, or if at any time a vacancy shall occur in
the office of the Collateral Agent for any other cause, a successor Collateral
Agent may be appointed by the LC Agent and the Term Lender Agent, acting
together. The powers, duties, authority and title of the predecessor Collateral
Agent shall be terminated and canceled without procuring the resignation of such
predecessor and without any formality, except as may be required by applicable
law and other than appointment and designation of a successor in writing duly
acknowledged and delivered to the predecessor and the Credit Parties. Such
appointment and designation shall be full evidence of the right and authority to
make the same and of all the facts therein recited, and the rights and duties of
the "Collateral Agent" under this Agreement and the Security Documents and
Orders shall vest in such successor, without any further act, deed or
conveyance, all the estates, properties, rights, powers, trust, duties,
authority and title of its predecessor; but such predecessor shall,
nevertheless, on the written request of either the Term Lender Agent, the LC
Agent, any Credit Party or the successor execute and deliver an instrument
transferring to such successor all the estates, properties, rights, powers,
trusts, duties, authority and title of such predecessor hereunder and under the
Security Documents and Orders and shall deliver all Collateral held by it or its
agents to such successor. Should any deed, conveyance or other instrument in
writing from the Credit Parties be required by any successor Collateral Agent
for more fully and certainly vesting in such successor the estates, properties,
rights, powers, trusts, duties, authority and title vested or intended to be
vested in the predecessor Collateral Agent any and all such deeds, conveyances
and other instruments in writing shall, on request of such successor, be
executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Credit Parties. If any Credit Party
shall not have executed and delivered any such deed, conveyance or other
instrument within 10 days after it receives a written request from the successor
Collateral Agent to do so, or if a

                                       28

<PAGE>

Notice of Actionable Default is in effect, the predecessor Collateral Agent may
execute the same on behalf of such Credit Party. Each Credit Party hereby
appoints any successor Collateral Agent as its agent and attorney-in-fact to act
for it as provided in the immediately preceding sentence.

         5.7. Status of Successor. Every successor Collateral Agent appointed
pursuant to Section 5.6 shall be a bank or trust company in good standing and
having power to act as Collateral Agent hereunder, incorporated under the laws
of the United States of America or any State thereof or the District of Columbia
and having its principal office within the 48 contiguous States and shall also
have capital, surplus and undivided profits of not less than $500,000,000 if
there be such an institution with such capital, surplus and undivided profits
willing, qualified and able to accept the agency hereunder upon the same terms
as contained herein.

         5.8. Merger of the Collateral Agent. Any corporation into which the
Collateral Agent may be merged, or with which it may be consolidated, or any
corporation resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Collateral
Agent shall be a party, shall be the Collateral Agent under this Agreement and
the Security Documents and Orders without the execution or filing of any paper
or any further act on the part of the parties hereto.

         5.9. Treatment of Payee or Indorsee by Collateral Agent. The Collateral
Agent may treat the registered holder or, if none, the payee or indorsee of any
promissory note or debenture evidencing a Secured Obligation as the absolute
owner thereof for all purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the
contrary, whether such promissory note or debenture shall be past due or not.

         5.10. Non-Reliance on Collateral Agent. Each Secured Party expressly
acknowledges that neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its officers,
directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates has made any
representations or warranties to such Secured Party and that no act by it
hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Credit Parties,
shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Collateral
Agent to any Secured Party. Each Secured Party represents to the Collateral
Agent that it has or will, independently and without reliance upon the
Collateral Agent, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed
or will deem appropriate, made and will make its own appraisal of and
investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other
condition and creditworthiness of the Credit Parties and has made and will make
its own decision to extend credit to the Credit Parties. Each Secured Party also
represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Collateral
Agent, 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 the Credit Documents, and to make such
investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business,
operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the
Credit Parties. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly
required to be furnished to the Secured Parties by the Collateral Agent
hereunder or under any of the Security Documents and Orders, the Collateral
Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Secured Party
with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations,
property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any Credit Party
which may come into its possession or the possession of any of its officers,
directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

         5.11. Indemnification. Each of the Secured Parties agrees to indemnify
the Collateral Agent (in its capacity as such, but not otherwise), to the extent
not paid or reimbursed by the Credit Parties and without limiting the obligation
of the Credit Parties to do so, ratably according to its Percentage of Exposure
on the date of occurrence of any action or failure to act which gives rise to
any claim by the Collateral Agent for indemnity under this subsection, from and
against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind
whatsoever (in this section, "Losses") which may at any time (including, without
limitation, at any time following the payment of the Secured Obligations) be
imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Collateral Agent in any way
relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the Security Documents
and Orders, or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or
the transactions contemplated thereby or any action taken or omitted by the
Collateral Agent hereunder or thereunder or in connection therewith (whether
arising in contract or in tort or otherwise and including any violation or
noncompliance with environmental laws by any Person or any liabilities or duties
of any Person with respect to hazardous materials found in or released into the
environment), provided that no such Secured Party shall be liable for the
payment of any portion of such Losses to the extent resulting from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of the Collateral Agent. The agreements in this
Section 5.11 shall survive the payment of the Secured Obligations and all other
amounts payable hereunder and the termination of this Agreement.

                             SECTION 6. ASSIGNMENTS

         6.1. Agreement Binding on Assignees. Each Secured Party agrees that it
shall be a condition to assignment of any of its Secured Obligations that any
assignee of such Secured Obligations shall agree in writing to be bound by the
terms of this Agreement.

         6.2. Limited Restriction on Assignments or Resignation of Term Lender
Agent. Until the termination of the LC Agreement and the payment of all Matured
LC Obligations, (a) any assignments of Term Loans made by a Term Lender must be
made pro rata, so that every Term Lender owns both Tier-A Term Loans and Tier-B
Term Loans in the same proportions, and (b) Lehman Brothers Inc. shall not
voluntarily resign as Term Lender Agent.

                            SECTION 7. MISCELLANEOUS

         7.1. Notices. Unless otherwise specified herein, all notices, requests,
demands or other communications given to any Credit Party, the Collateral Agent,
the LC Issuer, the Term Lender Agent, or SCTSC shall be given in writing
(including facsimile transmission) and shall be deemed to have been duly given
either (a) when personally delivered, or (b) three Business Days after being
duly deposited in the mails, registered or certified mail postage prepaid, or
(C) when transmitted by facsimile transmission, in each case addressed to such
party at its address specified on Schedule A hereto or any other address which
such party shall have specified as its address for the purpose of communications
hereunder, by notice given in accordance with this Section 7.1 to the party
sending such communication.

         7.2. No Waivers. No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent or any
Secured Party to exercise, no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay in
exercising, any right,

                                       30

power or privilege under this Agreement or any of the Security Documents and
Orders shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial

exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

instrument executed by each party hereto, provided that, with the written
