Date, to make available to the other party a contact list with names and phone
numbers of selected of its employees to be involved in the relationship
contemplated by this Agreement, which shall include employees involved in sales
and marketing functions and in technical functions. Each party shall ensure that

required under this Agreement shall have a level of skill and qualification
commensurate with the tasks required to be performed thereunder), and that the
number of such individuals shall be sufficient for it to meet its obligations
hereunder. The contact list, which in its initial form (subject to subsequent

      2.2 Each party also agrees to designate one of its employees (who may or

customers, media, industry analysts, and other third parties, concerning the

      2.3 The names of any individuals identified in the foregoing may be
changed by the naming party from time to time, upon written notice of such
change to the other party.

3. Business Terms and Consideration.

      3.1 In consideration for its participation in the Concur Commerce Network,
Partner agrees to the fee schedule set forth in Exhibit C. Concur reserves the
right, in its sole discretion and without liability to Partner, to (a) enter
into similar relationships as that contemplated in this Agreement with other
business partners on terms more or less favorable than those found herein or (b)
offer certain additional marketing and promotional opportunities, including but
not limited to, preferred supplier placement on the Concur Commerce Network,
advertising, or other promotional opportunities to any such supplier or business
partner.

      3.2 Partner agrees to provide access to the Partner Catalog via the Concur
Commerce Network for Buyers. For purposes of this Section, "access" shall mean
that Partner will take all reasonable steps to ensure that, subject to Partner's
standard terms and conditions, Buyers shall be able to purchase goods and
services through the Partner Store, including, without limitation, by
implementing such protocols as are identified on Exhibit A hereto.

      3.3 Partner warrants that, as to both the demonstration environment and
the production environment for the Partner Store, each Buyer or prospective
Buyer will experience at least 97% up-time in the Partner Store (not including
(a) scheduled Application upgrades by Partner or (b) any downtime scheduled by
Partner's data center hosting partner, if any). With respect to the foregoing,
"demonstration environment" shall not be construed to mean a development
environment, but rather a "mirror image" or replica of the production
environment. Partner will be in breach of the foregoing warranty if the Partner
Store fails to achieve 97% up-time (as measured over a period of a given month
based on 24 x 7 availability) in three consecutive months. Any such breach shall
be deemed to be an event of default warranting a termination for cause under
Section 6.2. Partner agrees to provide Concur in advance of each calendar
quarter during the term of this Agreement a schedule of planned down-times for
that quarter. In addition, Partner agrees to notify Concur promptly of any
unexpected downtime experienced by Partner with the Partner Store.

contemplated by this Agreement, and the related products and services of the
other party. Such activities will include, but not be limited to, promotion in
connection with each party's marketing, public relations, and sales efforts
(including, where applicable, joint sales calls). The parties shall jointly
develop guidelines for such promotional activities prior to beginning such
promotion. If one party wishes to engage in promotional activities relating to
this relationship, or the products or services of the other party, which are not
covered by the guidelines then in effect, it shall seek the prior approval of
the other party. Without limiting the foregoing, the parties shall cooperate to
develop data sheets and appropriate marketing materials to describe the Partner
Store to be offered by Concur and Partner and, subject to the terms and
conditions of Section 5, each party shall be entitled to refer to each other and
this relationship on their web site, and in its marketing and sales tools.

      4.2 Partner agrees that it will, in cooperation with Concur, develop and
circulate a press release announcing the relationship between Partner and Concur
promptly after the

another suitable executive available for participation in (a) occasional
press/analyst calls; (b) at least two speaking engagements per year; (c) at
least one Concur user conference per year; and (d) at least one (1) Concur
supplier advisory meeting per year.

      4.5 At least twice per year, each party agrees to provide quotes for
inclusion in the others press releases.

      4.6 Partner agrees to cooperate with Concur to jointly develop a
co-branded presentation and demonstration (including a demonstration Web site)

Partner Store or Concur Software (e.g. user groups, vendor fairs, trade shows,
seminars). Partner and Concur will mutually agree upon the events in which
Concur will participate. Each party will be responsible for its own
out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with these events.

      4.8 Partner, at it's sole discretion, will allow Concur to include

employees, successors and assigns (all referred to as "Concur") against any
losses, damages, claims, fines, penalties and expenses (including reasonable

limited to, order taking, order fulfillment, shipping, product delivery,

payment collection for all goods and services, payment of any assessments, taxes
and related fees and charges. Partner hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and
hold Concur harmless with respect to any losses, damages, claims, fines,
penalties and expenses related to the foregoing. Partner further acknowledges

not individuals) who accesses the Partner Store and the purchases of products
and services made by such Buyers (through the use of such Buyer's URL).

8. Confidentiality.

                                                                               6

      8.1 Nondisclosure. Each party shall treat as confidential all Confidential
Information of the other party, shall not use such Confidential Information
except as set forth herein, and shall use reasonable efforts not to disclose
such Confidential Information to any third party. Without limiting the
foregoing, each of the parties shall use at least the same degree of care which
it uses to prevent the disclosure of its own confidential information of like
importance to prevent the disclosure of Confidential Information disclosed to it
by the other party under this Agreement. Each party shall promptly notify the
disclosing party of any actual or suspected misuse or unauthorized disclosure of
such disclosing party's Confidential Information. Upon expiration or termination
of this Agreement, each party shall return all Confidential Information received
from the other party to the disclosing party.

      8.2 Exceptions. Notwithstanding the above, no party shall have liability
to the others with regard to any Confidential Information of the others which
the receiving party can prove: (i) was in the public domain at the time it was
disclosed or has entered the public domain through no fault of the receiving
party; (ii) was known to the receiving party, without restriction, at the time
of disclosure, as demonstrated by files in existence at the time of disclosure;
(iii) is disclosed with the prior written approval of the disclosing party; (iv)
was independently developed by the receiving party without any use of the
Confidential Information, as demonstrated by files created at the time of such
independent development; (v) becomes known to the receiving party, without
restriction, from a source other than the disclosing party without breach of
this Agreement by the receiving party and otherwise not in violation of the
disclosing party's rights; or (vii) is disclosed pursuant to the order or
requirement of a court, administrative agency, or other governmental body;
provided, however, that the receiving party shall provide prompt notice thereof
to the disclosing party to enable the disclosing party to seek a protective
order or otherwise prevent or restrict such disclosure. In addition, Concur
shall have the right to disclose the terms and conditions of this Agreement in
documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission if Concur deems such
disclosure to be advisable; provided, however, that Concur will make such
documents available to Partner for review by Partner from time to time during
the term of this Agreement.

      8.3 Remedies. Any breach of the restrictions contained in this Section 8
is a breach of this Agreement that may cause irreparable harm to the
nonbreaching party. Any such breach shall entitle the nonbreaching party to
injunctive relief in addition to all legal remedies.

9. Indemnification. Each party shall be solely responsible for, and shall
indemnify and hold the other party free and harmless from, any and all claims,
damages or lawsuits (including attorneys' fees) arising out of the negligent or
wrongful acts of such party, its employees or its agents under this Agreement,
including, without limitation, claims by third parties against such party as a
result of such party's (a) representation of the products or services of the
other in a manner inconsistent with the other party's published descriptions and
warranties, or (b) marketing of the Partner Store inconsistent with the terms of
this Agreement; provided, that such party is provided with (i) prompt written
notice of such claim or action, (ii) sole control and authority over the defense
or settlement of such claim or action and (iii) proper and full information and
reasonable assistance to defend and/or settle any such claim or action.

10. Miscellaneous.

      10.1 Successors and Assigns. No party will have the right to assign this
Agreement without the prior written consent of the other parties; provided, that
both parties shall have the right to assign its rights, obligations and
privileges hereunder to a successor in business or an acquirer of all or
substantially all of its business or assets to which this Agreement pertains
without obtaining the consent of Partner. However, should either party be
acquired by a direct competitor of the other (as reasonably identified by the
non-acquired party), the non-acquired party may terminate this agreement upon 60
days written notice. Subject to the foregoing, the terms and conditions of this
Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective
successors and assigns of the parties. Nothing in this Agreement, express or
implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto or
their respective successors and assigns

of any dispute. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered

                               SECOND AMENDMENT TO
                      DEBTOR-IN-POSSESSION CREDIT AGREEMENT

         SECOND AMENDMENT, DATED AS OF AUGUST 25, 1999 (THE "AMENDMENT"), to
the DEBTOR-IN-POSSESSION CREDIT AGREEMENT, dated as of June 1, 1999, among
LOEWEN GROUP INTERNATIONAL, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "COMPANY"), a
debtor and debtor-in-possession under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, each
of the Company's Subsidiaries listed on the signature pages thereto, each a
debtor and debtor-in-possession under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code
(collectively and together with the Company, the "BORROWERS"), THE LOEWEN
GROUP INC., a corporation organized under the laws of the Province of British
Columbia, Canada ("TLGI"), FIRST UNION NATIONAL BANK ("FIRST UNION"), each of
the other financial institutions party thereto (together with First Union,
the "LENDERS") and FIRST UNION NATIONAL BANK, as Administrative Agent for the
Lenders (in such capacity, the "AGENT"):

                              W I T N E S S E T H:

         WHEREAS, the Borrowers, TLGI, the Lenders and the Agent are parties
to that certain Debtor-In-Possession Credit Agreement, dated as of June 1,
1999, as amended by the First Amendment to Debtor-In-Possession Credit
Agreement, dated as of July 16, 1999, (as the same may be further amended,
modified or supplemented from time to time, the "CREDIT AGREEMENT"); and

         WHEREAS, Section 13.3 of the Credit Agreement provides that each
Lender may assign to one or more Purchasers all or a portion of its
interests, rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement (including,
without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment and the same portion
of the related Revolving Loans at the time owing to it) by (i) executing and
delivering to the Agent with such Purchaser an Assignment Agreement in
substantially the form of Exhibit D to the Credit Agreement and (ii)
executing and delivering to the Agent a Notice of Assignment substantially in
the form of Exhibit E to the Credit Agreement; and

         WHEREAS, First Union wishes to assign to each of the financial
institutions (other than First Union) that is named on Schedule 2.1 hereto
(such financial institutions other than First Union, collectively the "NEW
LENDERS"), and each of the New Lenders wishes to assume, a PRO RATA portion
of First Union's interests, rights and obligations under the Credit
Agreement; and

         WHEREAS, the Borrowers, TLGI, First Union, the New Lenders and the
Agent have determined that the execution and delivery of this Amendment to
effectuate a reallocation of the Total Commitment among First Union and the
New Lenders will be more expeditious and administratively efficient than the
execution and delivery of a separate Assignment and Acceptance and a separate
Notice of Assignment between First Union and each of the New Lenders; and

<PAGE>

         WHEREAS, upon the occurrence of the Effective Date (as hereinafter
defined) of this Amendment, each of the New Lenders shall become a party to
the Credit Agreement as a Lender and shall have the rights and obligations of
a Lender thereunder, the respective Commitments of First Union and each of
the New Lenders under the Credit Agreement shall be in the amount set forth
opposite its name on Schedule 2.1 attached hereto, as the same may be reduced
from time to time pursuant to Section 2.10 of the Credit Agreement; and

         WHEREAS, the Borrowers, the Agent and the Lenders desire to make
certain additional modifications to the Credit Agreement.

         NOW, THEREFORE, it is agreed:

I.       As used herein all terms that are defined in the Credit Agreement
shall have the same meanings herein.

II.      Schedule 2.1 to the Credit Agreement is hereby replaced in its
entirety by Schedule 2.1 hereto.

III.     The signature pages of the Credit Agreement are hereby amended to
conform to the signature pages hereto.

IV.      Section 6.6 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting
the year "1988" appearing in the sixth line thereof and inserting in lieu
thereof the year "1998."

V.       Section 6.14 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by (i)
inserting the symbol "(x)" immediately after the word "encumbering" in the
last sentence thereof, and (ii) inserting the following words immediately
before the word "does" in the last sentence thereof: "and (y) any other
Property of the Borrowers (other than the collateral securing the Fairway
Receivables Facility and the collateral securing the Existing Credit
Agreements, if any)".

VI.      By its execution and delivery hereof, First Union shall be deemed to
have made each of the statements set forth in Section 6 of the Assignment
Agreement as if such statements were fully set forth herein at length.

VII.     By its execution and delivery hereof, each of the New Lenders shall
be deemed to have made each of the statements set forth in Section 7 of the
Assignment Agreement as if such statements were fully set forth herein at
length.

VIII.    On the Effective Date, (i) each New Lender will pay to the Agent
(for the account of First Union) such amount as represents such New Lender's
pro rata portion of the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans, if
any, that are outstanding on the Effective Date and such New Lender's pro
rata portion of the aggregate amount of the then unreimbursed drafts, if any,
that were theretofore drawn under Letters of Credit, and (ii) the Agent shall
pay to each New

<PAGE>

Lender such fees as have been previously agreed to between the Agent and such
New Lender. Promptly following the occurrence of the Effective Date, and in
accordance with Section 13.3 of the Credit Agreement, the Agent shall record in
the Register the names and addresses of each New Lender and the principal amount
equal to such Lender's Commitment reflected on Schedule 2.1 hereto.

IX.      By its execution and delivery hereof, each of the New Lenders (i)
agrees that any interest and Fees (pursuant to Sections 2.8, 2.10 or 2.19 of
the Credit Agreement) that accrued prior to the Effective Date shall not be
payable to such New Lender and authorizes and directs the Agent to deduct
such amounts from any interest or Fees paid after the date hereof and to pay
such amounts to First Union (it being understood that interest and Fees
respecting the Commitment of First Union and each New Lender which accrue on
or after the Effective Date shall be payable to such Lender in accordance
with its Commitment) and (ii) acknowledges that if such New Lender is
organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside of the United States, such
New Lender has heretofore furnished to the Agent the forms prescribed by the
Internal Revenue Service of the United States certifying as to such New
Lender's exemption from United States withholding taxes with respect to any
payments to be made to such New Lender under the Credit Agreement (or such
other documents as are necessary to indicate that all such payments are
subject to such tax at a rate reduced by an applicable tax treaty).

X.       This Amendment shall not become effective (the "EFFECTIVE DATE")
until (i) the date on which this Amendment shall have been executed by the
Borrowers, TLGI, First Union, the New Lenders and the Agent, and the Agent
shall have received evidence satisfactory to it of such execution and (ii)
the payments provided for in clause (i) of paragraph 7 hereof shall have been
made.

XI.      The Borrowers agree that their obligations set forth in Section 10.7
of the Credit Agreement shall extend to the preparation, execution and
delivery of this Amendment.

XII.     This Amendment shall be limited precisely as written and shall not
be deemed (a) to be a consent granted pursuant to, or a waiver or
modification of, any other term or condition of the Credit Agreement or any
of the instruments or agreements referred to therein or (b) to prejudice any
right or rights which the Agent or the Lenders may now have or have in the
future under or in connection with the Credit Agreement or any of the
instruments or agreements referred to therein. Whenever the Credit Agreement
is referred to in the Credit Agreement or any of the instruments, agreements
or other documents or papers executed or delivered in connection therewith,
such reference shall be deemed to mean the Credit Agreement as modified by
this Amendment.

XIII.    This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by
the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so
executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original and all of which
taken together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

XIV.     This Amendment shall in all respects be construed in accordance with
and

<PAGE>

governed by the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and
to be performed wholly within such State.
