obligated to make Credit Extensions denominated in such requested currency; and
in the case of any such request with respect to the issuance of Letters of
Credit, such request shall be subject to the approval of the applicable
Administrative Agent and the applicable L/C Issuer.

     (b) Any such request shall be made to the applicable Administrative Agent
not later than 8:00 a.m., 20 Business Days prior to the date of the desired

Administrative Agent and, in the case of any such request pertaining to Letters
of Credit, the applicable L/C Issuer, in its or their sole discretion). In the
case of any such request pertaining to Eurocurrency Rate Loans, the U.S.
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof; and in the case
of any such request pertaining to Letters of Credit, the applicable
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the applicable L/C Issuer thereof.
Each affected Lender (in the case of any such request pertaining to Eurocurrency
Rate Loans) or the applicable L/C Issuer (in the case of a request pertaining to
Letters of Credit) shall notify the applicable Administrative Agent, not later
than 11:00 a.m., ten Business Days after receipt of such request whether it
consents, in its sole discretion, to the making of Eurocurrency Rate Loans or

currency.

     (c) Any failure by a Lender or an L/C Issuer, as the case may be, to
respond to such request within the time period specified in the preceding
sentence shall be deemed to be a refusal by such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as
the case may be, to permit Eurocurrency Rate Loans to be made or Letters of
Credit to be issued in such requested currency. If the U.S. Administrative Agent
and all the Lenders that would be obligated to make Credit Extensions
denominated in such requested currency consent to making Eurocurrency Rate Loans
in such requested currency, the U.S. Administrative Agent shall so notify the
Company and such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an
Alternative Currency hereunder for purposes of any U.S. Committed Borrowings of
Eurocurrency Rate Loans; and if the applicable Administrative Agent and the
applicable L/C Issuer consent to the issuance of Letters of Credit in such
requested currency, such Administrative Agent shall so notify the Company and
such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an Alternative
Currency hereunder for purposes of any Letter of Credit issuances. If the
applicable Administrative Agent shall fail to obtain consent to any request for
an additional currency under this Section 1.05, such Administrative Agent shall
promptly so notify the Company. Any specified currency of an Existing Letter of
Credit that is neither Dollars nor one of the Alternative Currencies
specifically listed in the definition of "Alternative Currency" shall be deemed
an Alternative Currency with respect to such Existing Letter of Credit only.

     fully as if the term "Administrative Agent" as used in Article IX included
     such L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (B) as
     additionally provided herein with respect to such L/C Issuer.

     (b) Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit;
Auto-Extension Letters of Credit.

          (i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may
     be, upon the request of the applicable Borrower delivered to the applicable
     L/C Issuer (with a copy to the applicable Administrative Agent) in the form
     of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a
     Responsible Officer of such Borrower. In the case of a request relating to
     a U.S. Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application must be received
     by the U.S. L/C Issuer and the U.S. Administrative Agent not later than
     10:00 a.m. at least two Business Days (or such later date and time as the
     U.S. Administrative Agent and the U.S. L/C Issuer may agree in a particular
     instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or
     date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request relating to
     a Canadian Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application must be
     received by the Canadian L/C Issuer and the Canadian Administrative Agent
     not later than 10:00 a.m. at least two Business Days (or such later date
     and time as the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian L/C Issuer
     may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the
     proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the
     case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such
     Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably
     satisfactory to the applicable L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date
     of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a

                                       37

<PAGE>

     Business Day); (B) the amount and currency thereof; (C) the expiry date
     thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the
     documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing
     thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such
     beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; and (G) such other matters
     as the applicable L/C Issuer may require. In the case of a request for an
     amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit
     Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the
     applicable L/C Issuer (A) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the
     proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (C) the
     nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such other matters as the
     applicable L/C Issuer may require. Additionally, the applicable Borrower
     shall furnish to the applicable L/C Issuer and the applicable
     Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to
     such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer
     Documents, as the applicable L/C Issuer or the applicable Administrative
     Agent may require.

          (ii) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the
     applicable L/C Issuer will confirm with the applicable Administrative Agent
     (by telephone or in writing) that such Administrative Agent has received a
     copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the applicable Borrower and,
     if not, such L/C Issuer will provide such Administrative Agent with a copy
     thereof. Unless the applicable L/C Issuer has received written notice from
     any Lender, the applicable Administrative Agent or any Loan Party, at least
     one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of
     the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions
     contained in Article IV shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the
     terms and conditions hereof, such L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date,
     issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the applicable Borrower (or the
     applicable Subsidiary) or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case
     may be, in each case in accordance with such L/C Issuer's usual and
     customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each U.S.
     Letter of Credit, each U.S. Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby
     irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the U.S. L/C
     Issuer a risk participation in such U.S. Letter of Credit in an amount
     equal to the product of such U.S. Lender's Applicable Percentage times the
     amount of such U.S. Letter of Credit. Immediately upon the issuance of each
     Canadian Letter of Credit, each Canadian Lender shall be deemed to, and
     hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the
     Canadian L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Canadian Letter of Credit
     in an amount equal to the product of such Canadian Lender's Applicable
     Percentage times the amount of such Canadian Letter of Credit.

          (iii) If a Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit
     Application, the applicable L/C Issuer may, in its sole and absolute
     discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension
     provisions (each, an "Auto-Extension Letter of Credit"); provided that any
     such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit such L/C Issuer to prevent
     any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing
     with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice
     to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the "Non-Extension Notice
     Date") in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such
     Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the applicable L/C
     Issuer, a Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to such
     L/C Issuer for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit
     has been issued, the U.S. Lenders or the Canadian Lenders, as applicable,
     shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the applicable L/C
     Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an
     expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided,
     however, that such L/C Issuer shall not permit any such extension if (A)
     such L/C Issuer has determined that it would not be permitted, or would
     have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its
     revised

                                       38

<PAGE>

     form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of
     clause (ii) or (iii) of Section 2.03(a) or otherwise), or (B) it has
     received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the
     day that is five Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1)
     from the applicable Administrative Agent that the Required U.S. Lenders, in
     the case of any U.S. Letter of Credit, or the Required Canadian Lenders, in
     the case of any Canadian Letter of Credit, have elected not to permit such
     extension or (2) from the applicable Administrative Agent, any Lender or a
     Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section
     4.02 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing such L/C Issuer
     not to permit such extension.

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

     (c) Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations.

          (i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any
     notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the applicable L/C Issuer
     shall notify the applicable Borrower and the applicable Administrative
     Agent thereof. In the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an
     Alternative Currency, the applicable Borrower shall reimburse the
     applicable L/C Issuer in such Alternative Currency, unless (A) such L/C
     Issuer (at its option) shall have specified in such notice that it will
     require reimbursement in Dollars (or, in the case of Canadian Letters of
     Credit, Canadian Dollars), or (B) in the absence of any such requirement
     for reimbursement in Dollars (or Canadian Dollars), such Borrower shall
     have notified such L/C Issuer promptly following receipt of the notice of
     drawing that it will reimburse such L/C Issuer in Dollars, or Canadian
     Dollars, as applicable. In the case of any such reimbursement in Dollars,
     or Canadian Dollars as applicable, of a drawing under a Letter of Credit
     denominated in an Alternative Currency, the applicable L/C Issuer shall
     notify the applicable Borrower of the Dollar Equivalent, or Canadian Dollar
     Equivalent as applicable, of the amount of the drawing promptly following
     the determination thereof. Not later than 10:00 a.m. on the date of any
     payment by the applicable L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit to be
     reimbursed in Dollars, or the Applicable Time on the date of any payment by
     such L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit to be reimbursed in an Alternative
     Currency (each such date, an "Honor Date"), the applicable Borrower shall
     reimburse such L/C Issuer through the applicable Administrative Agent in an
     amount equal to the amount of such drawing and in the applicable currency.
     If the Company fails to so reimburse the U.S. L/C Issuer by such time in
     the case of a U.S. Letter of Credit, the U.S. Administrative Agent shall
     promptly notify each U.S. Lender of the Honor Date, the Unreimbursed Amount
     (expressed in Dollars in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent thereof in the
     case of a U.S. Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency) and
     the amount of such U.S. Lender's Applicable Percentage thereof. If TWI
     fails to so reimburse the Canadian L/C Issuer by such time in the case of a
     Canadian Letter of Credit, the Canadian Administrative Agent shall promptly
     notify each Canadian Lender of the Honor Date, the Unreimbursed Amount
     (expressed in Canadian Dollars in the amount of the Canadian Dollar
     Equivalent thereof in the case of a Canadian Letter of Credit denominated
     in an Alternative Currency) and the amount of such Canadian Lender's
     Applicable Percentage thereof. In such event, the applicable Borrower shall
     be deemed to have requested a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to be
     disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount,
     without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for
     the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the
     unutilized portion of the U.S. Revolving Credit Facility or the Canadian
     Revolving Credit Facility, as applicable, and the conditions set forth in
     Section 4.02 (other than the delivery of a

                                       39

<PAGE>

     Committed Loan Notice). In no event may a Borrower extend the time for
     reimbursing any drawing under a commercial Letter of Credit by obtaining a
     banker's acceptance from the applicable L/C Issuer. Any notice given by an
     L/C Issuer or an Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i)
     may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided
     that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the
     conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

          (ii) (A) Each U.S. Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section
          2.03(c)(i) make funds available to the U.S. Administrative Agent for
          the account of the U.S. L/C Issuer, in Dollars, at the U.S.
          Administrative Agent's Office in an amount equal to its Applicable
          Percentage of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 10:00 a.m. on the
          Business Day specified in such notice by the U.S. Administrative
          Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(c)(iii),
          each U.S. Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have
          made a Base Rate Committed Loan to the Company in such amount. The
          U.S. Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the
          U.S. L/C Issuer in Dollars.

               (B) Each Canadian Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to
          Section 2.03(c)(i) make funds available to the Canadian Administrative
          Agent for the account of the Canadian L/C Issuer, in Canadian Dollars,
          at the Canadian Administrative Agent's Office in an amount equal to
          its Applicable Percentage of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than
          10:00 a.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the
          Canadian Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of
          Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Canadian Lender that so makes funds
          available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Committed Loan to
          TWI in such amount. The Canadian Administrative Agent shall remit the
          funds so received to the Canadian L/C Issuer in Canadian Dollars.

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

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

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

                                       40

<PAGE>

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

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

     (d) Repayment of Participations.

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

          (ii) If any payment received by an Administrative Agent for the
     account of the applicable L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is
     required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section
     10.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the L/C Issuer
     in its discretion), each applicable Lender shall pay to such Administrative
     Agent for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer its Applicable
     Percentage thereof on demand of such Administrative Agent, plus interest
     thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by
     such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate
     from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under this
     clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the
     termination of this Agreement.

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

          (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit,
     this Agreement, or any other Loan Document;

          (ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or
     other right that a Borrower or any Subsidiary may have at any time against
     any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person
     for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may

                                       41

<PAGE>

     be acting), such L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with
     this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of
     Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated
     transaction;

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

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

          (v) any adverse change in the relevant exchange rates or in the
     availability of the relevant Alternative Currency to the applicable
     Borrower or any Subsidiary or in the relevant currency markets generally;
     or

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

     The Company, or TWI, as applicable, shall promptly examine a copy of each
Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the
event of any claim of noncompliance with such Borrower's instructions or other
irregularity, such Borrower will promptly notify the applicable L/C Issuer. The
Company, or TWI, as applicable, shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any
such claim against the applicable L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such
notice is given as aforesaid.

     (f) Role of L/C Issuer. Each Lender, the Company and TWI agree that, in
paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the applicable L/C Issuer shall not
have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft,
certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to
ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the
authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the
L/C Issuers, the Administrative Agents, any of their respective Related Parties
nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of an L/C Issuer shall be liable
to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the
request or with the approval of the Lenders, the Required U.S. Lenders or the
Required Canadian Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in
the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due
execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or
instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document. The Company, or
TWI, as applicable, hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any
beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit;
provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not,
preclude the Company's, or TWI's, as applicable, pursuing such rights and
remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under
any other agreement. None of the L/C Issuers, the Administrative Agents, any of
their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee
of an L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described
in clauses (i) through (vi) of Section 2.03(e); provided, however, that anything
in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company, or TWI, as
applicable, may have a claim against the applicable L/C Issuer, and such L/C
Issuer may be liable to the Company, or TWI, as applicable, to the extent, but
only

                                       42

<PAGE>

to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages
suffered by the Company, or TWI, as applicable, which the Company, or TWI, as
applicable, proves were caused by such L/C Issuer's willful misconduct or gross
negligence or such L/C Issuer's wrongful failure to pay under any Letter of
Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and
certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of
Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, an L/C Issuer may
accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without
responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or
information to the contrary, and such L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for
the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or
purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits
thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be
invalid or ineffective for any reason.

     (g) Cash Collateral. (i) Upon the request of the applicable Administrative
Agent, if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any L/C Obligation for
any reason remains outstanding, the applicable Borrower shall immediately Cash
Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations of such
Borrower.

          (ii) In addition, (A) if the U.S. Administrative Agent notifies the
     Company at any time that the Outstanding Amount of all U.S. L/C Obligations
     at such time exceeds the U.S. Letter of Credit Sublimit then in effect or
     (B) if the Canadian Administrative Agent notifies TWI at any time that the
     Outstanding Amount of all Canadian L/C Obligations at such time exceeds the
     Canadian Letter of Credit Sublimit then in effect, then in each case,
     within two Business Days after receipt of such notice, the applicable
     Borrower shall Cash Collateralize its L/C Obligations in an amount equal to
     the amount of such excess.

          (iii) The applicable Administrative Agent may, at any time and from
     time to time after the initial deposit of Cash Collateral, request that
     additional Cash Collateral be provided in order to protect against the
     results of exchange rate fluctuations.

          (iv) Sections 2.05 and 8.02(c) set forth certain additional
     requirements to deliver Cash Collateral hereunder. For purposes of this
     Section 2.03, Section 2.05 and Section 8.02(c), "Cash Collateralize" means
     to pledge and deposit with or deliver to the applicable Administrative
     Agent, for the benefit of the applicable L/C Issuer and the applicable
     Lenders, as collateral for the L/C Obligations, cash or deposit account
     balances pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably
     satisfactory to such Administrative Agent and such L/C Issuer (which
     documents are hereby consented to by the Lenders). Derivatives of such term
     have corresponding meanings. Each Borrower hereby grants to the applicable
     Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the applicable L/C Issuer and the
     applicable Lenders, a security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts
     and all balances therein and all proceeds of the foregoing. Cash Collateral
     shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at
     Bank of America.

     (h) Applicability of ISP and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the
applicable L/C Issuer and the applicable Borrower when a Letter of Credit is
issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of
Credit), (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit,
and (ii) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits,
as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time
of issuance shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit.

     (i) Letter of Credit Fees. With regard to U.S. Letters of Credit, the

Letter of Credit equal to 0.125% of 1% per annum times the Dollar Equivalent of
the daily amount available to be drawn under such U.S. Letter of Credit, and
(ii) for each standby U.S. Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Rate times
the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under such U.S.
Letter of Credit. With regard to Canadian Letters of Credit, TWI shall pay to
the Canadian Administrative Agent for the account of each Canadian Lender in
accordance with its Applicable Percentage, in Canadian Dollars, a Letter of
Credit Fee (i) for each commercial Canadian Letter of Credit equal to 0.125% of
1% per annum times the Canadian Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available
to be drawn under such Canadian Letter of Credit, and (ii) for each standby
Canadian Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Rate times the Canadian Dollar
Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Canadian Letter
of Credit. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn
under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be
determined in accordance with Section 1.08. Letter of Credit Fees shall be (i)
computed on a quarterly basis in arrears and (ii) due and payable on the first
Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December,
commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter
of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand. If
there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the daily amount
available to be drawn under each standby Letter of Credit shall be computed and
multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter
that such Applicable Rate was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any
Event of Default exists, all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default
Rate.

     (j) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C
Issuer. Subject to the penultimate sentence of this subsection (j), the Company
or TWI, as applicable, shall pay directly to the applicable L/C Issuer for its
own account, in Dollars, or Canadian Dollars, as applicable, a fronting fee (i)
with respect to each commercial Letter of Credit, at the rate specified in the
Fee Letter, computed on the Dollar Equivalent, or Canadian Dollar Equivalent, as
applicable, of the amount of such Letter of Credit, and payable upon the
issuance thereof, (ii) with respect to any amendment of a commercial Letter of
Credit increasing the amount of such Letter of Credit, at a rate separately
agreed between the Company or TWI, as applicable, and the applicable L/C Issuer,
computed on the Dollar Equivalent, or Canadian Dollar Equivalent, as applicable,
of the amount of such increase, and payable upon the effectiveness of such
amendment, and (iii) with respect to each standby Letter of Credit, at the rate
per annum specified in the Fee Letter, computed on the Dollar Equivalent, or the
Canadian Dollar Equivalent, as applicable, of the daily amount available to be
drawn under such Letter of Credit on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting
fee in respect of any U.S. Letter of Credit shall be due and payable on the
tenth Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December in
respect of the most recently-ended quarterly period (or portion thereof, in the
case of the first payment), commencing with the first such date to occur after
the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date
and thereafter on demand. Such fronting fee in respect of any Canadian Letter of
Credit shall be due and payable on the last Business Day of each March, June,
September and December in respect of the most recently-ended quarterly period
(or portion thereof, in the case of the first payment), commencing with the
first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the
Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand. For purposes of
computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the
amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section
1.08. Notwithstanding the forgoing, no fronting fee shall be paid in respect of
Canadian Letters of Credit at such times as Bank of America is the sole Canadian
Lender. In addition, the Company, or TWI, as applicable, shall pay directly to
the applicable L/C Issuer for its own account, in Dollars, or Canadian Dollars,
as applicable, the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other
processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of such L/C Issuer
relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect; such customary
fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are

obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary, the Company or TWI, as
applicable, shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer hereunder

     2.04 SWING LINE LOANS.

     (a) The Swing Line. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein,
(i) the U.S. Swing Line Lender agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the
other U.S. Lenders set forth in this Section 2.04, to make loans to the Company
in Dollars (each a "U.S. Swing Line Loan") from time to time on any Business Day
during the Availability Period in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time
outstanding the amount of the U.S. Swing Line Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact
that such U.S. Swing Line Loans, when aggregated with the Applicable Percentage
of the Outstanding Amount of U.S. Committed Loans and U.S. L/C Obligations of
the Lender acting as U.S. Swing Line Lender, may exceed the amount of such
Lender's U.S. Commitment, and (ii) the Canadian Swing Line Lender agrees, in
reliance upon the agreements of the other Canadian Lenders set forth in this
Section 2.04, to make loans to TWI in Canadian Dollars or Dollars (each a
"Canadian Swing Line Loan") from time to time on any Business Day during the
Availability Period in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding
the amount of the Canadian Swing Line Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact that
such Canadian Swing Line Loans, when aggregated with the Applicable Percentage
of the Outstanding Amount of Canadian Committed Loans and Canadian L/C
Obligations of the Lender acting as Swing Line Lender, may exceed the amount of
such Lender's Canadian Commitment; provided, however, that (1) after giving
effect to any U.S. Swing Line Loan, (A) the Total U.S. Outstandings shall not
exceed the U.S. Revolver Ceiling, and (B) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of
the U.S. Committed Loans of any U.S. Lender, plus such U.S. Lender's Applicable
Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all U.S. L/C Obligations, plus such U.S.
Lender's Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all U.S. Swing Line
Loans shall not exceed such U.S. Lender's U.S. Commitment and (2) after giving
effect to any Canadian Swing Line Loan, (A) the Total Canadian Outstandings
shall not exceed the Canadian Revolver Ceiling, and (B) the aggregate
Outstanding Amount of the Canadian Committed Loans of any Canadian Lender, plus
such Canadian Lender's Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all
Canadian L/C Obligations, plus such Canadian Lender's Applicable Percentage of
the Outstanding Amount of all Canadian Swing Line Loans shall not exceed such
Canadian Lender's Canadian Commitment, and provided, further, that no Borrower
shall use the proceeds of any Swing Line Loan to refinance any outstanding Swing
Line Loan. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and
conditions hereof, the applicable Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.04,
prepay under Section 2.06, and reborrow under this Section 2.04. Immediately
upon the making of a U.S. Swing Line Loan, each U.S. Lender shall be deemed to,
and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the U.S.
Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such U.S. Swing Line Loan in an amount
equal to the product of such U.S. Lender's Applicable Percentage times the
amount of such U.S. Swing Line Loan. Immediately upon the making of a Canadian
Swing Line Loan, each Canadian Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably
and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Canadian Swing Line Lender a
risk participation in such Canadian Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the
product of such Canadian Lender's Applicable Percentage times the amount of such
Canadian Swing Line Loan. It is anticipated

                                       45
<PAGE>

that the Canadian Swing Line Loans will be used primarily by TWI to accommodate
Overdrafts. Overdrafts incurred by TWI shall constitute Borrowing of Canadian
Swing Line Loans.

     (b) Borrowing Procedures. Each Borrowing of U.S. Swing Line Loans shall be
made upon the Company's irrevocable notice to the U.S. Swing Line Lender and the
U.S. Administrative Agent. Each Borrowing of Canadian Swing Line Loans (other
than Overdrafts) shall be made upon TWI's irrevocable notice to the Canadian
Swing Line Lender and the Canadian Administrative Agent. Each such notice may be
given by telephone and must be received by the applicable Swing Line Lender and
the applicable Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. (or 11:00 a.m., in
the case of Canadian Swing Line Loans) on the requested borrowing date, and
shall specify (i) the amount to be borrowed, which shall be a minimum of
$100,000 in the case of a U.S. Swing Line Loan and CDN$100,000 (or $100,000, as
applicable) in the case of a Canadian Swing Line Loan (such minimum amounts
shall not apply to Overdrafts under the Canadian Revolving Credit Facility),
(ii) the requested borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day and (iii) in
the case of a Canadian Swing Line Loan, the currency thereof. Each such
telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the applicable Swing
Line Lender and the applicable Administrative Agent of a written Swing Line Loan
Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the
applicable Borrower. Promptly after receipt by the applicable Swing Line Lender
of any telephonic Swing Line Loan Notice, such Swing Line Lender will confirm
with the applicable Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that such
Administrative Agent has also received such Swing Line Loan Notice and, if not,
such Swing Line Lender will notify such Administrative Agent (by telephone or in
writing) of the contents thereof. Unless the applicable Swing Line Lender has
received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the applicable Administrative
Agent (including at the request of any Lender) prior to 2:00 p.m. (or 12:00
noon, in the case of Canadian Swing Line Loans) on the date of the proposed
Swing Line Borrowing (A) directing such Swing Line Lender not to make such Swing
Line Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the proviso to the first
sentence of Section 2.04(a), or (B) that one or more of the applicable
conditions specified in Article IV is not then satisfied, then, subject to the
terms and conditions hereof, such Swing Line Lender will, not later than 2:00
p.m. (or 12:00 noon, in the case of Canadian Swing Line Loans) on the borrowing
date specified in such Swing Line Loan Notice (or such other time as agreed by
the Canadian Swing Line Lender and TWI in the case of Overdrafts under the
Canadian Revolving Credit Facility), make the amount of its Swing Line Loan
available to the applicable Borrower at its office by crediting the account of
such Borrower on the books of such Swing Line Lender in Same Day Funds.

     (c) Refinancing of Swing Line Loans.

          (i) The U.S. Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole and absolute
     discretion may request, on behalf of the Company (which hereby irrevocably
     authorizes the U.S. Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf), that
     each U.S. Lender make a U.S. Committed Loan that is a Base Rate Committed
     Loan in an amount equal to such U.S. Lender's Applicable Percentage of the
     amount of U.S. Swing Line Loans then outstanding; such request shall be
     made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a Committed
     Loan Notice for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of
     Section 2.02, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein
     for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the unutilized
     portion of the U.S. Revolving Credit Facility and the conditions set forth
     in Section 4.02. The Canadian Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole and
     absolute discretion may request, on behalf of TWI (which hereby irrevocably
     authorizes the Canadian Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf),
     that each Canadian Lender make a Canadian Committed Loan that is a Base
     Rate Committed Loan in an amount equal to such Canadian Lender's Applicable
     Percentage of the amount of Canadian Swing Line Loans then outstanding;
     such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be
     deemed to be a Committed Loan Notice for

                                       46

<PAGE>

     purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.02,
     without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the
     principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion
     of the Canadian Revolving Credit Facility and the conditions set forth in
     Section 4.02. The applicable Swing Line Lender shall furnish the applicable
     Borrower with a copy of the applicable Committed Loan Notice promptly after
     delivering such notice to the applicable Administrative Agent. Each
     applicable Lender shall make an amount equal to its Applicable Percentage
     of the amount specified in such Committed Loan Notice available to the
     applicable Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds for the account of the
     applicable Swing Line Lender at the U.S. Administrative Agent's Office for
     Dollar-denominated payments or the Canadian Administrative Agent's Office
     for Canadian Dollar-denominated payments, as applicable, not later than
     10:00 a.m. (or 12:00 noon, in the case of Canadian Swing Line Loans) on the
     day specified in such Committed Loan Notice, whereupon, subject to Section
     2.04(c)(ii), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to
     have made a Base Rate Committed Loan to the applicable Borrower in such
     amount. The applicable Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so
     received to the applicable Swing Line Lender.

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

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

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

     (d) Repayment of Participations.

          (i) At any time after any Lender has purchased and funded a risk
     participation in a Swing Line Loan, if the applicable Swing Line Lender
     receives any payment on account of such

                                       47

<PAGE>

     Swing Line Loan, such Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Lender its
     Applicable Percentage of such payment (appropriately adjusted, in the case
     of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such
     Lender's risk participation was funded) in the same funds as those received
     by such Swing Line Lender.

          (ii) If any payment received by a Swing Line Lender in respect of
     principal or interest on any Swing Line Loan is required to be returned by
     such Swing Line Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section
     10.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Swing Line
     Lender in its discretion), each applicable Lender shall pay to such Swing
     Line Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof on demand of the applicable
     Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to
     the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the
     applicable Overnight Rate. The applicable Administrative Agent will make
     such demand upon the request of the applicable Swing Line Lender. The
     obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in
     full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

     (e) Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender. The applicable Swing Line
Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the applicable Borrower for interest
on its Swing Line Loans. Until each applicable Lender funds its Committed Loan
or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.04 to refinance such Lender's
Applicable Percentage of any Swing Line Loan, interest in respect of such
Applicable Percentage shall be solely for the account of the applicable Swing
Line Lender.

     (f) Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender. Each Borrower shall make all
payments of principal and interest in respect of its Swing Line Loans directly
to the applicable Swing Line Lender.

     2.05 SECURITY.

     All Obligations of Borrowers under this Agreement and all other Loan
Documents shall be secured by the Collateral in accordance with the Loan
Documents.

     2.06 PREPAYMENTS.

     (a) The Company may, upon notice to the U.S. Administrative Agent, at any

amount of such Lender's Applicable Percentage of such prepayment. If such notice
is given by a Borrower, the applicable Borrower shall make such prepayment and
the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date
specified therein. Any prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall be
accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid, together with any
additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05. Each such prepayment shall
be applied to the Committed Loans of the applicable Lenders in accordance with
their respective Applicable Percentages.

     (b) The applicable Borrower may, upon notice to the applicable Swing Line
Lender (with a copy to the applicable Administrative Agent), at any time or from
time to time, voluntarily prepay Swing Line Loans in whole or in part without
premium or penalty; provided that (i) such notice must be received by such Swing
Line Lender and such Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 a.m. on the date
of the prepayment, and (ii) any such prepayment shall be in a minimum principal
amount of $100,000 in the case of U.S. Swing Line Loans and CDN$100,000 in the

specify the date and amount of such prepayment. If such notice is given a

     (c) If the U.S. Administrative Agent notifies the Company at any time that
the Total U.S. Outstandings at such time exceed the U.S. Revolver Ceiling, then,
within two Business Days after receipt of such notice, the Company shall prepay
U.S. Committed Loans, prepay U.S. Swing Line Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the
U.S. L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce such
Outstanding Amount as of such date of payment to an amount not to exceed the

prepayment in full of all U.S. Committed Loans and U.S. Swing Line Loans, the
Total U.S. Outstandings exceed the U.S. Revolver Ceiling. The U.S.
Administrative Agent may, at any time and from time to time after the initial
deposit of such Cash Collateral, request that additional Cash Collateral be
provided in order to protect against the results of further exchange rate
fluctuations.

     (d) If the Canadian Administrative Agent notifies TWI at any time that the
Total Canadian Outstandings at such time exceed the Canadian Revolver Ceiling,
then, within two Business Days after receipt of such notice, TWI shall prepay
Canadian Committed Loans, prepay Canadian Swing Line Loans and/or Cash
Collateralize the Canadian L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount sufficient to
reduce such Outstanding Amount as of such date of payment to an amount not to

Revolver Ceiling. The Canadian Administrative Agent may, at any time and from
time to time after the initial deposit of such Cash Collateral, request that
additional Cash Collateral be provided in order to protect against the results
of further exchange rate fluctuations.

     (e) If the U.S. Administrative Agent notifies the Company at any time that
the Outstanding Amount of all U.S. Committed Loans denominated in Alternative
Currencies at such time exceeds the Alternative Currency Sublimit then in
effect, then, within two Business Days after receipt of such notice, the Company
shall prepay its U.S. Committed Loans in an aggregate amount sufficient to
reduce such

                                       49

<PAGE>

Outstanding Amount as of such date of payment to an amount not to exceed 100% of

any whole multiple of CDN$ 1,000,000 in excess thereof, in the case of the

the Aggregate Canadian Commitments, (v) if, after giving effect to any reduction
of the Aggregate U.S. Commitments, the U.S. Letter of Credit Sublimit, the U.S.
Swing Line Sublimit or the Alternative Currency Sublimit exceeds the amount of
the Aggregate U.S. Commitments, such Sublimit shall be automatically reduced by
the amount of such excess, and (vi) if, after giving effect to any reduction of
the Aggregate Canadian Commitments, the Canadian Letter of Credit Sublimit or
the Canadian Swing Line Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Aggregate Canadian
Commitments, such Sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such
excess. The applicable Administrative Agent will promptly notify the applicable
Lenders of any such notice of termination or reduction of Commitments. The
amount of any such Commitment reduction shall not be applied to the Alternative
Currency Sublimit or the U.S. Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Canadian Letter
of Credit Sublimit unless otherwise specified by the Company. Any reduction of
the Aggregate U.S. Commitments and/or Aggregate Canadian Commitments shall be
applied to the appropriate Commitment of each affected Lender according to its

termination of the Commitments shall be paid on the effective date of such

Applicable Rate; (iii) each U.S. Swing Line Loan shall bear interest on the
outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a
rate per annum equal to the Base Rate minus one percent (1.0%) and (iv) each
Canadian Swing Line Loan (A) that is not an Overdraft shall bear interest on the
outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a
rate per annum equal to the Base Rate minus one percent (1.0%) and (B) that is
an Overdraft shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof
from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum established by the
Canadian Swing Line Lender and accepted by TWI.

     (b) (i) If any amount of principal of any Loan is not paid when due
(without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by
acceleration or otherwise, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a
fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to
the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

          (ii) If any amount (other than principal of any Loan) payable by any
     Borrower under any Loan Document is not paid when due (without regard to
     any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration
     or otherwise, then upon the request of the Required U.S. Lenders or
     Required Canadian Lenders, as applicable, such amount shall thereafter bear
     interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the
     Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

          (iii) Upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of
     Default exists, the Borrowers shall pay interest on the principal amount of
     all outstanding Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per
     annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent
     permitted by applicable Laws.

          (iv) Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including
     interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

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

     (d) For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), and to the extent such
Act shall apply to such loan, (i) whenever a rate of interest or fee rate
hereunder is calculated on the basis of a year (the "deemed year") that contains
fewer days than the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation,
such rate of interest or fee rate shall be expressed as a yearly rate by
multiplying such rate of interest or fee rate by the actual number of days in
the calendar year of calculation and dividing it by the number of days in the
deemed year, (ii) the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest shall not
apply to any interest calculation hereunder and (iii) the rates of interest
stipulated herein are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates or
yields.

     2.10 Fees.

     In addition to certain fees described in subsections (i) and (j) of Section
2.03:

     (a) Commitment Fee. The Company shall pay to the U.S. Administrative Agent
for the account of each U.S. Lender in accordance with its Applicable
Percentage, a commitment fee in Dollars

                                       51

<PAGE>

equal to the Applicable Rate times the actual daily amount by which the
Aggregate U.S. Commitments exceed the sum of (i) the Outstanding Amount of U.S.
Committed Loans and (ii) the Outstanding Amount of U.S. L/C Obligations. TWI
shall pay to the Canadian Administrative Agent for the account of each Canadian
Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage, a commitment fee in
Canadian Dollars equal to the Applicable Rate times the actual daily amount by
which the Aggregate Canadian Commitments exceed the sum of (i) the outstanding
amount of Canadian Committed Loans and (ii) the outstanding number of Canadian
L/C Obligations. The commitment fee shall accrue at all times during the
Availability Period, including at any time during which one or more of the
conditions in Article IV is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in
arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December,
commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the
Maturity Date. The commitment fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and
if there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the actual
daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately
for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect.

     (b) Other Fees.

          (i) The Company shall pay to the Arranger, the U.S. Administrative
     Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent for their own respective
     accounts, the fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee
     Letter. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be
     refundable for any reason whatsoever.

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

     2.11 COMPUTATION OF INTEREST AND FEES.

     Except as provided in Section 2.09(d), all computations of interest for
Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is determined by Bank of America's "prime
rate" as determined by the applicable Administrative Agent shall be made on the
basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed.
All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a
360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as
applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year), or, in
the case of interest in respect of Committed Loans denominated in Alternative
Currencies as to which market practice differs from the foregoing, in accordance
with such market practice. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on
which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof,
for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan
that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section
2.12(a), bear interest for one day. Each determination by the applicable
Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive
and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

     2.12 EVIDENCE OF DEBT.

     (a) The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or
more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the applicable
Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records
maintained by the applicable Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be
conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by
the Lenders to the Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure
to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise
affect the obligation of the applicable Borrower hereunder to pay any amount
owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the
accounts and

                                       52

<PAGE>

records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the applicable
Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of
such Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon
the request of any Lender to a Borrower made through the applicable
Administrative Agent, such Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender
(through such Administrative Agent) a Note, which shall evidence such Lender's
Loans to such Borrower in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may
attach schedules to a Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable),
amount, currency and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

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

     2.13 PAYMENTS GENERALLY; ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT'S CLAWBACK.

     (a) General. All payments to be made by the Borrowers shall be made without
condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff.
Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, (i) all payments by the Company
hereunder (except with respect to principal of and interest on Loans denominated
in an Alternative Currency) shall be made to the U.S. Administrative Agent, for
the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the U.S.
Administrative Agent's Office in Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than
1:00 p.m. on the date specified herein, (ii) all payments by the Company
hereunder with respect to principal and interest on Loans denominated in an
Alternative Currency shall be made to the U.S. Administrative Agent, for the
account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the U.S.
Administrative Agent's Office in such Alternative Currency and in Same Day Funds
not later than the Applicable Time specified by the U.S. Administrative Agent on
the dates specified herein, (iii) all payments by TWI hereunder (except with
respect to principal of and interest on Loans denominated in Dollars) shall be
made to the Canadian Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective
Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Canadian Administrative Agent's
Office in Canadian Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than 12:00 noon on
the date specified herein, and (iv) all payments by TWI hereunder with respect
to principal and interest on Loans denominated in Dollars shall be made to the
Canadian Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to
which such payment is owed, at the Canadian Administrative Agent's Office in
Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later 12:00 noon on the dates specified
herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the U.S.
Administrative Agent may require that any payments due from the Company under
this Agreement be made in the United States, and the Canadian Administrative
Agent may require that any payments due from TWI under this Agreement be made in
Canada. If, for any reason, any Borrower is prohibited by any Law from making
any required payment hereunder in an Alternative Currency, such Borrower shall
make such payment in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the Alternative
Currency payment amount. The applicable Administrative Agent will promptly
distribute to each applicable Lender its Applicable Percentage (or other
applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received
by wire transfer to such Lender's Lending Office. All payments received by the
applicable Administrative Agent (i) after 1:00 p.m., in the case of payments in
Dollars, or (ii) after the Applicable Time specified by such Administrative
Agent in the case of payments in an Alternative Currency, shall in each case be
deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest
or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by any Borrower shall
come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next
following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in
computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

                                       53

<PAGE>

     (b) (i) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the
applicable Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior
to the proposed date of any Committed Borrowing of Eurocurrency Rate Loans (or,
in the case of any Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 12:00 noon
on the date of such Committed Borrowing) that such Lender will not make
available to such Administrative Agent such Lender's share of such Committed
Borrowing, such Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such
share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.02 (or, in the case of
a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender has made such share
available in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.02) and may,
in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a
corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share
of the applicable Committed Borrowing available to the applicable Administrative
Agent, then the applicable Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to
pay to such Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount
in Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the
date such amount is made available to such Borrower to but excluding the date of
payment to such Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made
by such Lender, the Overnight Rate and (B) in the case of a payment to be made
by such Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If such
Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the applicable
Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, such Administrative
Agent shall promptly remit to such Borrower the amount of such interest paid by
such Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable
Committed Borrowing to the applicable Administrative Agent, then the amount so
paid shall constitute such Lender's Committed Loan included in such Committed
Borrowing. Any payment by the applicable Borrower shall be without prejudice to
any claim such Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make
such payment to the applicable Administrative Agent.

     (ii) Payments by Borrowers; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless
the applicable Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the
applicable Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to such
Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders or the applicable
L/C Issuer hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, such
Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such
date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption,
distribute to the applicable Lenders or the applicable L/C Issuer, as the case
may be, the amount due. In such event, if the applicable Borrower has not in
fact made such payment, then each of the applicable Lenders or the applicable
L/C Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the applicable
Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such
Lender or such L/C Issuer, in Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day
from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding
the date of payment to such Administrative Agent, at the Overnight Rate.

     A notice of the applicable Administrative Agent to any Lender or any
Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be
conclusive, absent manifest error.

     (c) Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available
to the applicable Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such
Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such
funds are not made available to the applicable Borrower by such Administrative
Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in
Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, such
Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from
such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

     (d) Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders
hereunder to make Committed Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit
and Swing Line Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 10.04(c) are
several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any

                                       54

<PAGE>

Committed Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under
Section 10.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other
Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender
shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its
Committed Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under
Section 10.04(c).

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

     2.14 SHARING OF PAYMENTS BY LENDERS.

     If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or
otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of
the Committed Loans made by it, or the participations in L/C Obligations or in
Swing Line Loans held by it resulting in such Lender's receiving payment of a
proportion of the aggregate amount of such Committed Loans or participations and
accrued interest thereon greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided
herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify each
Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value)
participations in (i) the U.S. Committed Loans and subparticipations in U.S. L/C
Obligations and U.S. Swing Line Loans of the other U.S. Lenders if such Lender
is a U.S. Lender or (ii) the Canadian Committed Loans and subparticipations in
Canadian L/C Obligations and Canadian Swing Line Loans of the other Canadian
Lenders if such Lender is a Canadian Lender, or make such other adjustments as
shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by
the applicable Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of
principal of and accrued interest on their respective Committed Loans and other
amounts owing them, provided that:

          (i) if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and
     all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such
     participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase
     price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and

          (ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to
     (x) any payment made by a Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the
     express terms of this Agreement or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as
     consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of
     its Committed Loans or subparticipations in L/C Obligations or Swing Line
     Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Company or any
     Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall
     apply).

     Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may
effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a
participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such
Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation
as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Loan Party in the
amount of such participation.

     2.15 INCREASE IN COMMITMENTS.

     (a) Request for Increase. Provided there exists no Default, upon notice to
each Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the applicable Lenders),
the Company may from time to time, request an increase in the Aggregate
Commitments by an amount (for all such requests) not exceeding $50,000,000;
provided that (i) any such request for an increase shall be in a minimum amount
of $5,000,000. At the time of sending such notice, the Company (in consultation
with the Administrative

                                       55
<PAGE>

Agents) shall specify the time period within which each Lender is requested to
respond (which shall in no event be less than ten Business Days from the date of
delivery of such notice to the Lenders).

     (b) Lender Elections to Increase. Each Lender shall notify the
Administrative Agents within such time period whether or not it agrees to
increase its Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than,
or less than its Applicable Percentage of such requested increase. Any Lender
not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to
increase its Commitment.

     (c) Notification by Administrative Agent; Additional Lenders. The
Administrative Agents shall notify the Company and each Lender of the Lenders'
responses to each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a
requested increase and subject to the approval of the applicable Administrative
Agent and the applicable L/C Issuer (which approvals shall not be unreasonably
withheld), the Company may also invite additional Persons that qualify as
Eligible Assignees to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Administrative Agent and its
counsel.

     (d) Effective Date and Allocations. If the Aggregate Commitments are
increased in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agents and the
Company shall determine the effective date (the "Increase Effective Date") and
the final allocation of such increase. The Administrative Agents shall promptly
notify the Company and the Lenders of the final allocation of such increase and
the Increase Effective Date.

     (e) Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase. As a condition precedent to
such increase, the Company shall deliver to the U.S. Administrative Agent a
certificate of each Loan Party dated as of the Increase Effective Date signed by
a Responsible Officer of such Loan Party (i) certifying and attaching the
resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to such increase,
and (ii) in the case of the Company, certifying that, before and after giving
effect to such increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained in
Article V and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material
respects on and as of the Increase Effective Date, except to the extent that
such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in
which case they are true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier
date, and except that for purposes of this Section 2.15, the representations and
warranties contained in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 5.05 shall be deemed
to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to clauses (a) and
(b), respectively, of Section 6.01, and (B) no Default exists. The applicable
Borrower shall prepay any of its Committed Loans outstanding on the Increase
Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section
3.05) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Committed Loans ratable
with any revised Applicable Percentages arising from any nonratable increase in
the Commitments under this Section.

     (f) Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any provisions in
Sections 2.14 or 10.01 to the contrary.

                                   ARTICLE III

                     TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

     3.01 TAXES.

     (a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any
obligation of the respective Borrowers hereunder or under any other Loan
Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding
for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that if the applicable
Borrower shall be required by applicable law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes
(including any

                                       56

<PAGE>

Other Taxes) from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as
necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions
applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) each Administrative
Agent, Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the
sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower
shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower shall timely pay the full
amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with
applicable law.

     (b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. Without limiting the
provisions of subsection (a) above, each Borrower shall timely pay any Other
Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

     (c) Indemnification by the Borrowers. Each Borrower shall indemnify each
Administrative Agent, each Lender and each L/C Issuer, within 10 days after
demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes
(including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or
attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by such Administrative
Agent, such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and any penalties,
interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto,
whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally
imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to
the amount of such payment or liability delivered to a Borrower by a Lender or
an L/C Issuer (with a copy to the applicable Administrative Agent), or by the
applicable Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or an
L/C Issuer, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

     (d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by any Borrower to a Governmental Authority,
such Borrower shall deliver to the applicable Administrative Agent the original
or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority
evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other
evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the applicable
Administrative Agent.

     (e) Status of Lenders. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption
from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which
a Borrower is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such
jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any other
Loan Document shall deliver to the Company (with a copy to the applicable
Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or
reasonably requested by the Company or the applicable Administrative Agent, such
properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as
will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of
withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Company or the
applicable Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation
prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company or such
Administrative Agent as will enable the Company or such Administrative Agent to
determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or
information reporting requirements.

     Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that a
Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States, any Foreign Lender
shall deliver to Company and the applicable Administrative Agent (in such number
of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on
which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time
to time thereafter upon the request of the Company or such Administrative Agent,
but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the
following is applicable:

          (i) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN
     claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the
     United States is a party,

                                       57

<PAGE>

          (ii) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI,

          (iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the
     exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a
     certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a "bank"
     within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a "10 percent
     shareholder" of the applicable Borrower within the meaning of section
     881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a "controlled foreign corporation"
     described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) duly completed copies
     of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or

          (iv) any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for
     claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding
     tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be
     prescribed by applicable law to permit a Borrower to determine the
     withholding or deduction required to be made.

     Without limiting the obligations of the Lenders set forth above regarding
delivery of certain forms and documents to establish each Lender's status for
U.S. withholding tax purposes, each Lender agrees promptly to deliver to the
applicable Administrative Agent or the Company, as such Administrative Agent or
the Company shall reasonably request, on or prior to the Closing Date, and in a
timely fashion thereafter, such other documents and forms required by any
relevant taxing authorities under the Laws of any other jurisdiction, duly
executed and completed by such Lender, as are required under such Laws to
confirm such Lender's entitlement to any available exemption from, or reduction
of, applicable withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such
Lender outside of the U.S. by the Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement or
otherwise to establish such Lender's status for withholding tax purposes in such
other jurisdiction. Each Lender shall promptly (i) notify the applicable
Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render
invalid any such claimed exemption or reduction, and (ii) take such steps as
shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of
such Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of
its Lending Office) to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws of any such
jurisdiction that any Borrower make any deduction or withholding for taxes from
amounts payable to such Lender. Additionally, each of the Borrowers shall
promptly deliver to the applicable Administrative Agent or any Lender, as such
Administrative Agent or such Lender shall reasonably request, on or prior to the
Closing Date, and in a timely fashion thereafter, such documents and forms
required by any relevant taxing authorities under the Laws of any jurisdiction,
duly executed and completed by such Borrower, as are required to be furnished by
such Lender or such Administrative Agent under such Laws in connection with any
payment by such Administrative Agent or any Lender of Taxes or Other Taxes, or
otherwise in connection with the Loan Documents, with respect to such
jurisdiction.

     (f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If an Administrative Agent, any Lender or
an L/C Issuer determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund
of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Borrower
or with respect to which any Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to
this Section, it shall pay to such Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but
only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by
such Borrower under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving
rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Administrative
Agent, such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and without interest
(other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with
respect to such refund), provided that each Borrower, upon the request of such
Administrative Agent, such Lender or such L/C Issuer, agrees to repay the amount
paid over to such Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other cnarges
imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Administrative Agent,
such Lender or such L/C Issuer in the event such Administrative Agent, such
Lender or such L/C Issuer is required to repay such refund to such Governmental
Authority. This subsection shall not be construed to require an

                                       58

<PAGE>

Administrative Agent, any Lender or an L/C Issuer to make available its tax
returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems
confidential) to any Borrower or any other Person.

     3.02 ILLEGALITY.

     If any Lender reasonably determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or
that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender
or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Eurocurrency Rate
Loans (whether denominated in Dollars or an Alternative Currency), or to
determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency Rate, or any
Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of
such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars or any
Alternative Currency in the applicable interbank market, then, on notice thereof
by such Lender to the applicable Borrower through the applicable Administrative
Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurocurrency Rate Loans
in the affected currency or currencies or to convert Base Rate Committed Loans
to Eurocurrency Rate Loans, shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the
applicable Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower that the
circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of
such notice, the applicable Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a
copy to the applicable Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert
all such Eurocurrency Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans, either on
the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully
continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans to such day, or immediately,
if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate
Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the applicable Borrower shall
also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

     3.03 INABILITY TO DETERMINE RATES.

     If the Required Lenders reasonably determine that for any reason in
connection with any request for a Eurocurrency Rate Loan or a conversion to or
continuation thereof that (a) deposits (whether in Dollars or an Alternative
Currency) are not being offered to banks in the applicable offshore interbank
market for such currency for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such
Eurocurrency Rate Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for
determining the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect
to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan (whether denominated in Dollars or an
Alternative Currency), or (c) the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest
Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan does not adequately and
fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Eurocurrency Rate Loan,
the applicable Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the applicable
Borrower and each applicable Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the
applicable Lenders to make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the affected
currency or currencies shall be suspended until the applicable Administrative
Agent revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the applicable Borrower
may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation
of Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies or, failing
that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a
Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

     3.04 INCREASED COSTS.

     (a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

          (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit,
     compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of,
     deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in
     by, any Lender (except (A) any reserve requirement contemplated by Section
     3.04(e) and (B) the requirements of the Bank of England and the

                                       59

<PAGE>

     Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank reflected in the
     Mandatory Cost, other than as set forth below) or an L/C Issuer;

          (ii) subject any Lender or an L/C Issuer to any tax of any kind
     whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any
     participation in a Letter of Credit or any Eurocurrency Rate Loan made by
     it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or such L/C
     Issuer in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes
     covered by Section 3.01 and the imposition of, or any change in the rate
     of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender or such L/C Issuer);

          (iii) prevent the Mandatory Cost, as calculated hereunder, from
     representing the cost to any Lender of complying with the requirements of
     the Bank of England and/or the Financial Services Authority or the European
     Central Bank in relation to its making, funding or maintaining Eurocurrency
     Rate Loans; or

          (iv) impose on any Lender or an L/C Issuer or the London interbank
     market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or
     Eurocurrency Rate Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or
     participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such
Lender of making or maintaining any Eurocurrency Rate Loan (or of maintaining
its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or
such L/C Issuer of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit
(or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of
Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such
Lender or such L/C Issuer hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other
amount) then, upon request of such Lender or such L/C Issuer, the applicable
Borrower will pay to such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such L/C Issuer,
as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

     (b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender or an L/C Issuer determines that
any Change in Law affecting such Lender or such L/C Issuer or any Lending Office
of such Lender or such Lender's or such L/C Issuer's holding company, if any,
regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate
of return on such Lender's or such L/C Issuer's capital or on the capital of
such Lender's or such L/C Issuer's holding company, if any, as a consequence of
this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or
participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of
Credit issued by such L/C Issuer, to a level below that which such Lender or
such L/C Issuer or such Lender's or such L/C Issuer's holding company could have
achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender's or
such L/C Issuer's policies and the policies of such Lender's or such L/C
Issuer's holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to
time the applicable Borrower will pay to such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the
case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or
such L/C Issuer or such Lender's or such L/C Issuer's holding company for any
such reduction suffered.

     (c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or an L/C
Issuer setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender
or such L/C Issuer or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in
subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the applicable Borrower
shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower shall pay to
such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on
any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

                                       60

<PAGE>

     (d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or an L/C
Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this
Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender's or such L/C Issuer's
right to demand such compensation, provided that no Borrower shall be required
to compensate a Lender or an L/C Issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions of
this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than
six months prior to the date that such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case
may be, notifies the applicable Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to
such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender's or such L/C Issuer's
intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law
giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the
six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of
retroactive effect thereof).

     (e) Additional Reserve Requirements. The applicable Borrower shall pay to
each applicable Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required to comply with
any reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any other central
banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance
of the Commitments or the funding of the Eurocurrency Rate Loans, such
additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if
necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs
allocated to such Commitment or Loan by such Lender (as determined by such
Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive, absent manifest
error), which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which
interest is payable on such Loan, provided the applicable Borrower shall have
received at least 10 days' prior notice (with a copy to the applicable
Administrative Agent) of such additional costs from such Lender. If a Lender
fails to give notice 10 days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such
additional costs shall be due and payable 10 days from receipt of such notice.

     3.05 COMPENSATION FOR LOSSES.

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

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

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

          (c) any failure by such Borrower to make payment of any Loan or
     drawing under any Letter of Credit (or interest due thereon) denominated in
     an Alternative Currency on its scheduled due date or any payment thereof in
     a different currency; or

          (d) any assignment of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan on a day other than the
     last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the
     Company pursuant to Section 10.13;

including any loss of anticipated profits, any foreign exchange losses and any
loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained
by it to maintain such Loan, from fees payable to terminate the deposits from
which such funds were obtained or from the performance of any foreign exchange
contract. The applicable Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative
fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.

                                       61

<PAGE>

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

     3.06 MITIGATION OBLIGATIONS; REPLACEMENT OF LENDERS.

     (a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests
compensation under Section 3.04, or any Borrower is required to pay any
additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of
any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to
Section 3.02, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a
different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign
its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or
affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or
assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section
3.01 or 3.04, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the
notice pursuant to Section 3.02, as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not
subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise
be disadvantageous to such Lender. Such Borrower hereby agrees to pay all
reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such
designation or assignment.

     (b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under
Section 3.04, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any
Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to
Section 3.01, the Company may replace such Lender in accordance with Section
10.13.

     3.07 SURVIVAL.

     All of the obligations of the Borrowers under this Article III shall
survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of all other
Obligations hereunder.

                                   ARTICLE IV

     4.02 CONDITIONS TO ALL CREDIT EXTENSIONS.

Credit Extension (other than a Committed Loan Notice requesting only a
conversion of Committed Loans to the other Type, or a continuation of
Eurocurrency Rate Loans) is subject to the following conditions precedent:

     (a) The representations and warranties of (i) the Borrowers contained in
Article V and (ii) each Loan Party contained in each other Loan Document or in
any document furnished at any time under or in connection herewith or therewith,
shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of such
Credit Extension, except to the extent that such representations and warranties
specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they shall be true and
correct in all material respects as of such earlier date, and except that for
purposes of this Section 4.02, the representations and warranties contained in
subsections (a) and (b) of Section 5.05 shall be deemed to refer to the most
recent statements furnished pursuant to clauses (a) and (b), respectively, of
Section 6.01.

     (b) No Default shall exist, or would result from such proposed Credit
Extension or the application of the proceeds thereof.

     (c) The applicable Administrative Agent and, if applicable, the applicable

     (d) In the case of a Credit Extension to be denominated in an Alternative
Currency, there shall not have occurred any change in national or international
financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or
exchange controls which in the reasonable opinion of the applicable
Administrative Agent, the Required U.S. Lenders (in the case of any U.S.
Committed Loans to be denominated in an Alternative Currency), the Required
Canadian Lenders (in the case of any Canadian Committed Loans to be denominated
in Dollars) or the applicable L/C Issuer (in the case of any Letter of Credit to
be denominated in an Alternative Currency) would make it impracticable for such
Credit Extension to be denominated in the relevant Alternative Currency.

     (e) Such proposed Extension of Credit is permitted pursuant to Section
4.09(b)(1) of Senior Debt Indenture.

     Each Request for Credit Extension (other than a Committed Loan Notice
requesting only a conversion of Committed Loans to the other Type or a
continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans) submitted by a Borrower shall be deemed
to be a representation and warranty that the conditions specified in Sections
4.02(a), (b) and (e) have been satisfied on and as of the date of the applicable
Credit Extension.

                                    ARTICLE V

knowledge of the Company, no slogan or other advertising device, product,
process, method, substance, part or other material now employed, or now
contemplated to be employed, by the Company or any Subsidiary infringes upon any
valid rights held by any other Person. No claim or litigation regarding any of

which, either individually or in the aggregate, is reasonably expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Obligor is organized and existing or that
any registration charge or stamp or similar tax be paid on or in respect of the
Applicable Foreign Obligor Documents or any other document, except for (i) any
such filing, registration, recording, execution or notarization as has been made

Agents, the Arranger, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders to treat such Borrower
Materials as not containing any material non-public information with respect to
the Borrowers or their respective securities for purposes of United States
Federal and state securities laws (provided, however, that to the extent such
Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall be treated as set forth in

posting on a portion of the Platform not designated "Public Investor."
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Borrower shall be under any obligation to mark
any Borrower Materials "PUBLIC."

                              ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

     9.01 APPOINTMENT AND AUTHORITY.

     Each of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of
America to act on its behalf as the U.S. Administrative Agent and the Canadian
Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes
each Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise
such powers as are delegated to such Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or
thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental
thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the
Administrative Agents, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers, and no Borrower shall
have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

     9.02 RIGHTS AS A LENDER.

     Each Person serving as an Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the
same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may
exercise the same as though it were not an Administrative Agent and the term
"Lender" or "Lenders" shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the
context otherwise requires, include each Person serving as an Administrative
Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may
accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any
other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with
the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person
were not an Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account
therefor to the Lenders.

     9.03 EXCULPATORY PROVISIONS.

     Neither Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations
except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither Administrative Agent:

          (a) shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties,
     regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

          (b) shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise
     any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly
     contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the applicable
     Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the
     Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as
     shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents),
     provided that neither Administrative Agent shall be required to take any
     action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such
     Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document
     or applicable law; and

          (c) shall, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan
     Documents, have any duty to disclose, or shall be liable for the failure to
     disclose, any information relating to any of the Borrowers or any of their
     respective Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person
     serving as an Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any
     capacity.

     Neither Administrative Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not
taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or
such other number or percentage of the Lenders as

                                       87

<PAGE>

shall be necessary, or as such Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith
shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 10.01 and
8.02) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.
Neither Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default
unless and until notice describing such Default is given to such Administrative
Agent by the Company, a Lender or an L/C Issuer.

     Neither Administrative Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to
ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in
or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the
contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or
thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or
observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set
forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity,
enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan
Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction
of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to
confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such
Administrative Agent.

     9.04 RELIANCE BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.

     Each Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not
incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent,
statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic
message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by
it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the
proper Person. Each Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made
to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper
Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining
compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance
of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction
of a Lender or an L/C Issuer, the applicable Administrative Agent may presume
that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such L/C Issuer unless
such Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such
Lender or such L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of
such Letter of Credit. Each Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel
(who may be counsel for the Company), independent accountants and other experts
selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it
in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

     9.05 DELEGATION OF DUTIES.

     Each Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and
exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or
through any one or more sub-agents appointed by such Administrative Agent. Each
Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its
duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related
Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such
sub-agent and to the Related Parties of each Administrative Agent and any such
sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the
syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities
as Administrative Agent.

     9.06 RESIGNATION OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.

     Each Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to
the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Company. Upon receipt of any such notice of
resignation, the requisite Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with
the Company, to appoint a successor, which, in the case of a successor U.S.
Administrative Agent, shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an
Affiliate of any such bank

                                       88

<PAGE>

with an office in United States and, in the case of a successor Canadian
Administrative Agent, shall be a bank with an office in the Canada, or an
Affiliate of any such bank with an office in Canada. If no such successor shall
have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days
after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then
the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the applicable Lenders and
the applicable L/C Issuer, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the
qualifications set forth above; provided that if such Administrative Agent shall
notify the Company and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such
appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in
accordance with such notice and (1)such retiring Administrative Agent shall be
discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by such
Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the L/C Issuers under any of
the Loan Documents, such retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold
such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is
appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to
be made by, to or through such Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or
to each applicable Lender and applicable L/C Issuer directly, until such time as
a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed as provided for above in
this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor's appointment as an
Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become
vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or
retired) Administrative Agent, and such retiring Administrative Agent shall be
discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other
Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this
Section). The fees payable by the Company to a successor Administrative Agent
shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed
between the Company and such successor. After a retiring Administrative Agent's
resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this
Article and Section 10.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such
retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related
Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them
while such retiring Administrative Agent was acting as an Administrative Agent.

     Any resignation by Bank of America as U.S. Administrative Agent pursuant to
this Section shall also constitute its resignation as U.S. L/C Issuer and U.S.
Swing Line Lender. Any resignation by Bank of America as Canadian Administrative
Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as Canadian
L/C Issuer and Canadian Swing Line Lender. Upon the acceptance of a successor's
appointment as an Administrative Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall
succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and
duties of the retiring L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender, (b) the retiring L/C
Issuer and Swing Line Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective
duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (c) the
successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the
Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make
other arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the retiring L/C Issuer to
effectively assume the obligations of the retiring L/C Issuer with respect to
such Letters of Credit.

     9.07 NON-RELIANCE ON ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND OTHER LENDERS.

     Each Lender and each L/C Issuer acknowledges that it has, independently and
without reliance upon either Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of
their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has
deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this
Agreement. Each Lender and each L/C Issuer also acknowledges that it will,
independently and without reliance upon either Administrative Agent or any other
Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and
information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its
own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement,
any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished
hereunder or thereunder.

     9.08 NO OTHER DUTIES, ETC.

     Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the documentation
agents, syndication agents, bookrunners or arrangers listed on the cover page
hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or
any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as an
Administrative Agent, a Lender or an L/C Issuer hereunder.

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

     unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in
     order to have the claims of the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the
     Administrative Agents (including any claim for the reasonable compensation,
     expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and
     the Administrative Agents and their respective agents and counsel and all
     other amounts due the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Administrative
     Agents under Sections 2.03(i) and (j), 2.09 and 10.04) allowed in such
     judicial proceeding; and

          (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or

other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by
each Lender and each L/C Issuer to make such payments to the applicable
Administrative Agent and, in the event that the applicable Administrative Agent
shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the L/C
Issuers, to pay to such Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of such Administrative Agent
and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due such Administrative Agent
under Sections 2.09 and 10.04.

Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or
an L/C Issuer any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition
affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize either
Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such
proceeding.

     Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon termination of the
     Aggregate Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than

          (c) to release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the
     Subsidiary Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of
     a transaction permitted hereunder.

Lenders will confirm in writing such Administrative Agent's authority to release
or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to
release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty
pursuant to this Section 9.10.

electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites)
pursuant to procedures approved by the applicable Administrative Agent, provided
that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender or an L/C Issuer
pursuant to Article II if such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as applicable, has
notified the applicable Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving
notices under such Article by electronic communication. The applicable
Administrative Agent or the Company may, in its discretion, agree to accept
notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications
pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures
may be limited to particular notices or communications.

     Unless the applicable Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i)
notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed
received upon the sender's receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended
recipient (such as by the "return receipt requested" function, as available,
return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), provided that if such notice or
other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the
recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the
opening of business on the next business day for the recipient, and (ii) notices
or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed
received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address
as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or
communication is available and identifying the website address therefor.

     (c) The Platform. THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE." THE
AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF
THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM
LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF
ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD
PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT
PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event
shall either Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively,
the "Agent Parties") have any liability to any Borrower, any Lender, an L/C
Issuer or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses
of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of any
Borrower's or any Administrative Agent's transmission of Borrower Materials
through the Internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a
final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of such Agent Party; provided, however, that in no event
shall any Agent Party have any liability to any Borrower, any Lender, an L/C
Issuer or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or
punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages).

     (d) Change of Address, Etc. Each Borrower, each Administrative Agent, each
L/C Issuer and each Swing Line Lender may change its address, telecopier or
telephone number for notices and other

                                       93

<PAGE>

communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. Each other
Lender may change its address, telecopier or telephone number for notices and
other communications hereunder by notice to the Company, the applicable
Administrative Agent, the applicable L/C Issuer and the applicable Swing Line
Lender. In addition, each Lender agrees to notify the applicable Administrative
Agent from time to time to ensure that such Administrative Agent has on record
(i) an effective address, contact name, telephone number, telecopier number and
electronic mail address to which notices and other communications may be sent
and (ii) accurate wire instructions for such Lender.

     (e) Reliance by Administrative Agents, L/C Issuers and Lenders. Each
Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely
and act upon any notices (including telephonic Committed Loan Notices and Swing
Line Loan Notices) given by or on behalf of any Borrower even if (i) such
notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not
preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the
terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation
thereof. The Company shall indemnify the each Administrative Agent, each L/C
Issuer, each Lender and the Related Parties of each of them from all losses,
costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on
each notice given by or on behalf of any Borrower. All telephonic notices to and
other telephonic communications with an Administrative Agent may be recorded by
such Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to
such recording.

     10.03 NO WAIVER; CUMULATIVE REMEDIES.

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

     10.04 EXPENSES; INDEMNITY; DAMAGE WAIVER.

     (a) Costs and Expenses. The Company shall pay (i) all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agents and their

delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or
any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof

consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by an L/C
Issuer in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any
Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all

time charges for attorneys who may be employees of an Administrative Agent, any
Lender or an L/C Issuer, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its
rights (A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents,

made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket
expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect
of such Loans or Letters of Credit.

     (b) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall indemnify each
Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender and each L/C
Issuer, and each Related Party of any of the

                                       94

<PAGE>

foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an "Indemnitee") against, and
hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages,
liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements
of any counsel for any Indemnitee), and shall indemnify and hold harmless each
Indemnitee from all fees and time charges and disbursements for attorneys who
may be employees of any Indemnitee, incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted
against any Indemnitee by any third party or by any Borrower or any other Loan
Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or
delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or
instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto
of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder, the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or, in the case of each
Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and its Related Parties only,
the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) any Loan
or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom
(including any refusal by an L/C Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a
Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do
not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual
or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property
owned or operated by any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any
Environmental Liability related in any way to any Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation
or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort
or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Company or any
other Loan Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto;
provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to
the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses
(x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and
nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by the Company
or any other Loan Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such
Indemnitee's obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the
Company or such other Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment
in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

     (c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Company for any reason
fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of
this Section to be paid by it to either Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent
thereof), an L/C Issuer or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each
Lender severally agrees to pay to the applicable Administrative Agent (or any
such sub-agent), the applicable L/C Issuer or such Related Party, as the case
may be, such Lender's Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the
applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid
amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim,
damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or
asserted against the applicable Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or
the applicable L/C Issuer in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party
of any of the foregoing acting for the applicable Administrative Agent (or any
such sub-agent) or applicable L/C Issuer in connection with such capacity. The
obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (c) are subject to the
provisions of Section 2.13(e).

     (d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted
by applicable law, no Borrower or Lender shall assert, and hereby waives, any
claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect,
consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages)
arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other
Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the
use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above
shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of
any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications,
electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or
thereby.

                                       95
<PAGE>

     (e) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later
than ten Business Days after demand therefor.

     (f) Survival. The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation
of any Administrative Agent and any L/C Issuer, the replacement of any Lender,
the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or
discharge of all the other Obligations.

     10.05 PAYMENTS SET ASIDE.

     To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of any Borrower is made to
an Administrative Agent, an L/C Issuer or any Lender, or an Administrative
Agent, an L/C Issuer or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such
payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently
invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required
(including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Administrative Agent,
such L/C Issuer or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee,
receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor
Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation
or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and
continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such
setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender and each L/C Issuer severally
agrees to pay to the applicable Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable
share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by such
Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the
date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight
Rate from time to time in effect, in the applicable currency of such recovery or
payment. The obligations of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers under clause (b) of
the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and
the termination of this Agreement.

     10.06 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.

     (a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and thereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted
hereby, except that no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its
rights or obligations hereunder or thereunder without the prior written consent
of the applicable Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign
or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to
an assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section,
(ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d)
of this Section, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest
subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this Section (and any other
attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void).
Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer
upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and
assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d)
of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related
Parties of each of the Administrative Agents, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders)
any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this
Agreement.

     (b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or
more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its
Commitment and the Loans (including for purposes of this subsection (b),
participations in L/C Obligations and in Swing Line Loans) at the time owing to
it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following
conditions:

          (i) Minimum Amounts.

                                       96

<PAGE>

               (A) In the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount
          of the assigning Lender's Commitment and the related Loans at the time
          owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate
          of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned;
          and

               (B) in any case not described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this
          Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this
          purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment
          is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans
          of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as
          of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such
          assignment is delivered to the applicable Administrative Agent or, if
          "Trade Date" is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the
          Trade Date, shall not be less than $5,000,000, in the case of an
          assignment of U.S. Committed Loans, and CDN$5,000,000, in the case of
          an assignment of Canadian Committed Loans, unless each of the U.S.
          Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as
          applicable, and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is
          continuing, the Company otherwise consents (each such consent not to
          be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that
          concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent
          assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single assignee (or
          to an assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a
          single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum
          amount has been met.

          (ii) Proportional Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an
     assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender's rights and
     obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or Commitment
     assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not (A) apply to a Swing Line
     Lender's rights and obligations in respect of Swing Line Loans or (B)
     prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and
     obligations in respect of its U.S. Commitment (and the related U.S.
     Committed Loans) and its Canadian Commitment (and the related Canadian
     Committed Loans) on a non-pro rata basis;

          (iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any
     assignment except to the extent required by subsection (b)(i)(B) of this
     Section and, in addition:

               (A) the consent of the Company (such consent not to be
          unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an
          Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such
          assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a
          Lender or an Approved Fund;

               (B) (i) the consent of the U.S. Administrative Agent (such
          consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required
          for assignments in respect of any U.S. Commitment if such assignment
          is to a Person that is not a U.S. Lender with a U.S. Commitment, an
          Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such
          Lender; and (ii) the consent of the Canadian Administrative Agent
          (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be
          required for assignments in respect of any Canadian Commitment if such
          assignment is to a Person that is not a Canadian Lender with a
          Canadian Commitment, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund
          with respect to such Lender; and

                                       97

<PAGE>

               (C) the consent of the applicable L/C Issuer (such consent not to
          be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any
          assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to
          participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit issued (or
          to be issued) by such L/C Issuer; and

               (D) the consent of the applicable Swing Line Lender (such consent
          not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any
          assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to
          participate in exposure under one or more Swing Line Loans made (or to
          be made) by such Swing Line Lender.

          (iv) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall
     execute and deliver to the applicable Administrative Agent an Assignment
     and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the
     amount of $3,500; provided, however, that such Administrative Agent may, in
     its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in
     the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it shall not be a Lender,
     shall deliver to the applicable Administrative Agent an Administrative
     Questionnaire.

          (v) No Assignment to Company. No such assignment shall be made to the
     Company or any of the Company's Affiliates or Subsidiaries.

          (vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be
     made to a natural person.

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

     (c) Register. The applicable Administrative Agent, acting solely for this
purpose as an agent of the applicable Borrower, shall maintain a copy of each
Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of
the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal
amounts of the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each such Lender pursuant to
the terms hereof from time to time (each a "Register"). The entries in the
Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agents and
the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in such Register
pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this
Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. Each Register shall be
available for inspection by each of the Borrowers and any Lender at any
reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

     (d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or
notice to, any Borrower or any Administrative Agent, sell participations to any
Person (other than a natural person or

                                       98

<PAGE>

the Company or any of the Company's Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a
"Participant") in all or a portion of such Lender's rights and/or obligations
under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the
Loans (including such Lender's participations in L/C Obligations and/or Swing
Line Loans) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender's obligations under this
Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely
responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations
and (iii) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agents, the Lenders and the L/C
Issuers shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in
connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any
agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation
shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this
Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision
of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that
such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any
amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to
Section 10.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this
Section, each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the
benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 to the same extent as if it were a
Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of
this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be
entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender, provided
such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 as though it were a
Lender.

     (e) Limitation upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled
to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.04 than the applicable
Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation
sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such
Participant is made with the Company's prior written consent. A Participant that
would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the
benefits of Section 3.01 unless the Company is notified of the participation
sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the
Borrowers, to comply with Section 3.01(e) as though it were a Lender.

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

     (g) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words "execution," "signed,"
"signature," and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be
deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic
form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or
enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based
recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in
any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and
National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act,
or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions
Act.

     (h) Resignation after Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, if at any time Bank of America assigns all of its U.S.
Commitment and/or Canadian Commitment and Loans pursuant to subsection (b)
above, Bank of America may, (i) upon 30 days' notice to the Company and the
Lenders, resign as U.S. L/C Issuer and/or Canadian L/C Issuer, as applicable,
and/or (ii) upon 30 days' notice to the Company, resign as U.S. Swing Line
Lender and/or Canadian Swing Line Lender, as applicable. In the event of any
such resignation as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, the Company shall be
entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor L/C Issuer or Swing Line
Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Company to appoint
any such successor shall affect the resignation of Bank of America as L/C Issuer
or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be. If Bank of America resigns as an L/C
Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of

                                       99

<PAGE>

such L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit issued by it and
outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as such L/C Issuer and
all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the
Lenders to make Base Rate Committed Loans or fund risk participations in
Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.03(c)). If Bank of America resigns as
a Swing Line Lender, it shall retain all the rights of such Swing Line Lender
provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Line Loans made by it and
outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to
require the Lenders to make Base Rate Committed Loans or fund risk
participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans pursuant to Section 2.04(c). Upon
the appointment of a successor L/C Issuer and/or Swing Line Lender, (a) such
successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers,
privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the
case may be, and (b) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in
substitution for the applicable Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the
time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to Bank of
America to effectively assume the obligations of Bank of America with respect to
such Letters of Credit.

     10.07 TREATMENT OF CERTAIN INFORMATION; CONFIDENTIALITY.

     Each of the Administrative Agents, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers agrees
to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except
that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its
Affiliates' respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents,
advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such
disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such
Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the
extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction
over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National
Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by
applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d)
to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies
hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating
to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights
hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions
substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or
Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its
rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective
counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to
a Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Company or (h) to
the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a
result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to an Administrative
Agent, any Lender, an L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates on a
nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Company.

     For purposes of this Section, "Information" means all information received
from the Company or any Subsidiary relating to the Company or any Subsidiary or
any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is
available to an Administrative Agent, any Lender or an L/C Issuer on a
nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Company or any Subsidiary. Any
Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in
this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so
if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the
confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own
confidential information.

     Each of the Administrative Agents, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers
acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public
information concerning the Company or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it
has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public
information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in
accordance with applicable Law, including Federal and state securities Laws.

     10.08 RIGHT OF SETOFF.

     If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender,
each L/C Issuer and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at
any time and from time to time, after obtaining the prior written consent of the
Administrative Agents, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set
off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand,
provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other
obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, such L/C
Issuer or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower
against any and all of the obligations of such Borrower now or hereafter
existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or such
L/C Issuer, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or such L/C Issuer shall
have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and
although such obligations of such Borrower may be contingent or unmatured or are
owed to a branch or office of such Lender or such L/C Issuer different from the
branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The
rights of each Lender, each L/C Issuer and their respective Affiliates under
this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other
rights of setoff) that such Lender, such L/C Issuer or their respective
Affiliates may have. Each Lender and each L/C Issuer agrees to notify the
Company and the Administrative Agents promptly after any such setoff and
application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the
validity of such setoff and application.

     10.09 INTEREST RATE LIMITATION.

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

     10.10 COUNTERPARTS; INTEGRATION; EFFECTIVENESS.

     This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties
hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original,
but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This
Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the
parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous
agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter
hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become
effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agents and when
the U.S. Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when
taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto.
Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by
telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of
this Agreement.

     10.11 SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

     All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan
Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection
herewith or therewith shall survive the

                                      101

<PAGE>

execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties
have been or will be relied upon by each Administrative Agent and each Lender,
regardless of any investigation made by an Administrative Agent or any Lender or
on their behalf and notwithstanding that an Administrative Agent or any Lender
may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit
Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or
any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter
of Credit shall remain outstanding.

     10.12 SEVERABILITY.

     If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to
be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and
enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall
endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or
unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which
comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable
provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not
invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

     10.13 REPLACEMENT OF LENDERS.

     If (a) any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, (b) any
Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any
Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01,
(c) a Lender (a "Non-Consenting Lender") does not consent to a proposed change,
waiver, discharge or termination with respect to any Loan Document that has been
approved by the Required Lenders as provided in Section 10.01 but requires
unanimous consent of all Lenders or all Lenders directly affected thereby (as
applicable) or (d) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then the Company may, at
its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative
Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in
accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents
required by, Section 10.06), all of its interests, rights and obligations under
this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume
such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such
assignment), provided that:

          (i) the applicable Administrative Agent shall have received the
     assignment fee specified in Section 10.06(b);

          (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the
     outstanding principal of its Loans and L/C Advances, accrued interest
     thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and
     under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.05)
     from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued
     interest and fees) or the applicable Borrower (in the case of all other
     amounts);

          (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for
     compensation under Section 3.04 or payments required to be made pursuant to
     Section 3.01, such assignment will result in a reduction in such
     compensation or payments thereafter;

          (iv) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws; and

          (v) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a Non-Consenting
     Lender's failure to consent to a proposed change, waiver, discharge or
     termination with respect to any Loan Document, the applicable replacement
     bank, financial institution or Fund consents to the proposed change,
     waiver, discharge or termination; provided that the failure by such Non-

                                      102

<PAGE>

     Consenting Lender to execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption shall
     not impair the validity of the removal of such Non-Consenting Lender and
     the mandatory assignment of such Non-Consenting Lender's Commitments and
     outstanding Loans and participations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line
     Loans pursuant to this Section 10.13 shall nevertheless be effective
     without the execution by such Non-Consenting Lender of an Assignment and
     Assumption.

     A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation
if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the
circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and delegation
cease to apply.

     10.14 GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION; ETC.

     (a) GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF OREGON.

     (b) SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. EACH BORROWER AND LENDER IRREVOCABLY AND

JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF OREGON SITTING IN MULTNOMAH COUNTY

PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING
SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE
JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN
ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT ANY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT,
ANY LENDER OR ANY L/C ISSUER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR
PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST ANY
BORROWER OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.

     (c) WAIVER OF VENUE. EACH BORROWER AND LENDER IRREVOCABLY AND
UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY
OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION
OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN PARAGRAPH (B) OF THIS SECTION. EACH OF THE
PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH
ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT.

     (d) SERVICE OF PROCESS. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE
OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 10.02. NOTHING IN THIS
AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY
OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS
AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR
THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO
(A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS
REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE
EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES
THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS
AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL
WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

     10.16 USA PATRIOT ACT NOTICE.

     Each Lender that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined) and each
Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby
notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act
(Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the "Act"), it
is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the
Borrowers, which information includes the name and address of each Borrower and
other information that will allow such Lender or such Administrative Agent, as
applicable, to identify such Borrower in accordance with the Act.

     10.17 JUDGMENT CURRENCY.

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

     10.19 NO ADVISORY OR FIDUCIARY RESPONSIBILITY.

     In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby,
each Borrower acknowledges and agrees, on behalf of itself and the other Loan
Parties, that: (a) the credit facilities provided for hereunder and any related
arranging or other services in connection therewith (including in connection
with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan
Document) are an arm's-length commercial transaction between the Borrowers and
their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and each Administrative Agent and
the Arranger, on the other hand, and each of the Loan Parties is capable of
evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and
conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan
Documents (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or
thereof); (b) in connection with the process leading to such transaction, each
Administrative Agent and the Arranger each is and has been acting solely as a
principal and is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary, for the
Borrowers or any of their respective Affiliates, stockholders, creditors or
employees or any other Person; (c) neither of the Administrative Agents nor the
Arranger has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary
responsibility in favor of any Loan Party with respect to any of the
transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto, including with
respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other
Loan Document (irrespective of whether an Administrative Agent or the Arranger
has advised or is currently advising any of the Borrowers or any of their
respective Affiliates on other matters) and neither Administrative Agent nor the
Arranger has any obligation to any Borrower or any of its respective Affiliates
with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations
expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; (d) the
Administrative Agents and the Arranger and their respective Affiliates may be
engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from
those of the Borrowers and their respective Affiliates, and neither of the
Administrative Agents nor the Arranger has any obligation to disclose any of
such interests by virtue of any advisory, agency or fiduciary relationship; and
(e) the Administrative Agents and the Arranger have not provided and will not
provide any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to any of
the transactions contemplated hereby (including any amendment, waiver or other
modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) and each Loan Party has
consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent
it has deemed appropriate. Each Loan Party hereby waives and releases, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that it may have against each
Administrative Agent and the Arranger with respect to any breach or alleged
breach of agency or fiduciary duty.

     10.20 AMENDMENT AND RESTATEMENT OF EXISTING CREDIT AGREEMENT.

     The parties to the Existing Credit Agreement each hereby agrees that, at
such time as this Agreement shall have become effective pursuant to the terms of
Article IV, (a) the Existing Credit Agreement automatically shall be deemed
amended, superseded and restated in its entirety by this Agreement and (b) the
Commitments under the Existing Credit Agreement and as defined therein
automatically shall be replaced with the Commitments hereunder. This Agreement
is not a novation of the Existing Credit Agreement.

          or omitted to stated a material fact required to be state therein or
          necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the
          circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, except to the

5.   COVENANTS.

     5.1  GENERAL. In case at any time after the Closing any further action is
          necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement,
          the Transaction Documents and the contemplated transactions, each of
          the Parties will take such further action (including the execution and
          delivery of further instruments and documents) as any other Party
          reasonably may request, all at the sole cost and expense of the
          requesting Party (unless the requesting Party is entitled to
          indemnification therefor under Section 7). The Seller acknowledges and
          agrees that from and after the Closing the Buyer will be entitled to
          copies of all documents, books, records (including Tax records),
          agreements and financial data of any sort relating to the Seller.

     5.2  NOTICES AND CONSENTS. Each of the Parties will give any notices to,
          make any filings with and use its reasonable best efforts to obtain
          any authorizations, consents and approvals of any Governmental
          Authority necessary in connection with the transactions contemplated
          by this Agreement.

     5.3  LITIGATION SUPPORT. In the event and for so long as any Party is
          actively contesting or defending against any action, suit, proceeding,
          hearing, investigation, charge, complaint, claim or demand in
          connection with (a) any transaction contemplated under this Agreement,
          or (b) any fact, situation, circumstance, status, condition, activity,
          practice, plan, occurrence, event, incident, action, failure to act or
          transaction on or prior to the Closing Date involving the Seller, each
          of the other Parties will cooperate with the contesting or defending
          Party and his, her or its counsel in the contest or defense, make
          available his, her or its personnel, and provide such testimony and
          access to his, her or its books and records as will be necessary in
          connection with the contest or

                                       16

          defense, all at the sole cost and expense of the contesting or
          defending Party (unless the contesting or defending Party is entitled
          to indemnification therefor under Section 7).

     5.4  TRANSITION. Neither the Seller or its Affiliates will take any action
          that is designed or intended to have the effect of discouraging any
          lessor, licensor, customer, supplier or other business associate of
          any of the Seller from maintaining the same business relationships
          with the Buyer and its Affiliates after the Closing as it maintained
          with the Seller prior to the Closing. The Seller will refer all
          customer inquiries relating to the businesses of the Seller to the
          Buyer from and after the Closing.

     5.5  CONFIDENTIALITY. The Seller will treat and hold as such all of the
          Confidential Information, refrain from using any of the Confidential
          Information except in connection with this Agreement, and deliver
          promptly to the Buyer or destroy, at the request and option of the
          Buyer, all tangible embodiments (and all copies) of the Confidential
          Information that are in his possession. In the event that a Seller
          Member is requested or required (by oral question or request for
          information or documents in any legal proceeding, interrogatory,
          subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) to disclose
          any Confidential Information, the applicable Seller Member will notify
          the Buyer promptly of the request or requirement so that the Buyer may
          seek an appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the
          provisions of this Section 5.5. If, in the absence of a protective
          order or the receipt of a waiver, the Seller Member is, on the advice
          of counsel, compelled to disclose any Confidential Information to the
          tribunal or else stand liable for contempt, the Seller Member may
          disclose the Confidential Information to the tribunal. The disclosing
          party must use his reasonable best efforts to obtain, at the
          reasonable request of the Buyer, an order or other assurance that
          confidential treatment will be accorded to such portion of the
          Confidential Information required to be disclosed as the Buyer will
          designate.

     5.6  COVENANT NOT TO COMPETE. For a period of five years from and after the
          Closing Date, the Seller will not engage directly or indirectly
          (except having less than 1% ownership of the outstanding stock in any
          publicly-traded corporation) in any business that the Seller conducts
          as of the Closing Date in any geographic area in which the Seller
          conducts that business as of the Closing Date. If the final judgment
          of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or
          provision of this Section 5.6 is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties
          agree that the court making the determination of invalidity or
          unenforceability will have the power to reduce the scope, duration, or
          area of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or
          to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term
          or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to
          expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or
          provision, and this Agreement will be enforceable as so modified after
          the expiration of the time within which the judgment may be appealed.

     5.7  NONSOLICITATION; NON-HIRE AND NONINTERFERENCE. For a period of five
          years from and after the Closing Date, the Seller will not directly or
          indirectly (a) induce or attempt to induce any Person hired by the
          Buyer or its Affiliates (each, a "HIRED EMPLOYEE") to leave the employ
          of the Buyer and its Affiliates, or in any way interfere adversely
          with the relationship between any Hired Employee and the Buyer and its
          Affiliates, (b) induce or attempt to induce any Hired Employee to work
          for, render services or provide advice to or supply confidential
          business information or trade secrets of the Buyer and its Affiliates
          to any Person, (c) employ, or otherwise pay for services rendered by,
          any Hired Employee in any business enterprise with which the Seller
          and its Affiliates may be associated, connected or affiliated, or (d)
          induce or attempt to induce any customer, supplier, licensee, licensor
          or other Person having a business relationship with the Seller or its
          Affiliates to cease doing business with the Buyer and its Affiliates,
          or in any way interfere with the relationship between any such
          customer, supplier, licensee, licensor or other such Person and the
          Buyer and its Affiliates. If the final judgment of a court of
          competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision of this
          Section 5.7 is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties agree that the
          court making the determination of invalidity or unenforceability will
          have the power to reduce the scope, duration, or area of the term or
          provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any
          invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision
          that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the
          intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this
          Agreement will be enforceable as so modified after the expiration of
          the time within which the judgment may be appealed.

          (c)  The obligation to indemnify the Buyer following the Closing from

               (i)  The Buyer Parties may not assert a claim for indemnification

                    breaches) in excess of an aggregate threshold equal to
                    $10,000, after which point the Buyer Parties will be
                    indemnified by the Seller only from and against Adverse
                    Consequences from the first dollar of such Adverse
                    Consequences (the "BASKET"). Notwithstanding the foregoing,

                    of the Buyer Parties related to Adverse Consequences arising

                    by 425,000 (the "CAP"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
                    Cap will not apply to any claims for indemnification of the
                    Buyer Parties related to Adverse Consequences arising from
                    breaches of the Fundamental Representations or under Section
                    7.2(b) of this Agreement.

     7.3  INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS FOR BENEFIT OF THE SELLER. If the Buyer
          breaches (or in the event any third party alleges facts that, if true,
          would mean the Buyer has breached) any representations, warranties or
          covenants contained in this Agreement, provided that the Seller makes
          a written claim for indemnification against the Buyer, then the Buyer
          will indemnify the Seller, as applicable, from and against the
          entirety of any Adverse Consequences the Seller may suffer through and
          after the date of the claim for indemnification (including any Adverse
          Consequences the Seller may suffer after the end of any applicable
          survival period) resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the
          nature of or caused by such breach (or alleged breach).

     7.4  MATTERS INVOLVING THIRD PARTIES.

          (a)  If any third party will notify any Party (the "INDEMNIFIED
               PARTY") with respect to any matter (a "THIRD PARTY CLAIM") that
               may give rise to a claim for indemnification against any other
               Party (the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY") under this Section 7, then the
               Indemnified Party will promptly

               the Indemnified Party in notifying any Indemnifying Party will
               not relieve the Indemnifying Party from their obligation unless
               (and then solely to the extent) the Indemnifying Party is
               prejudiced.

          (b)  Any Indemnifying Party will have the right to defend the
               Indemnified Party against the Third Party Claim with counsel of
               its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party so
               long as (i) the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party
               in writing within 15 days after the Indemnified Party has given
               notice of the Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party will
               indemnify the Indemnified Party from and against the entirety of
               any Adverse Consequences the Indemnified Party may suffer
               resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of or
               caused by the Third Party Claim, (ii) the Indemnifying Party
               provides the Indemnified Party with evidence reasonably
               acceptable to the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party
               will have the financial resources to defend against the Third
               Party Claim and fulfill its indemnification obligations, (iii)
               the Third Party Claim involves only money damages and does not
               seek an injunction or other equitable relief, (iv) settlement of,
               or an adverse judgment with respect to, the Third Party Claim is
               not, in the good faith judgment of the Indemnified Party, likely
               to establish a precedential custom or practice materially adverse
               to the continuing business interests of the Indemnified Party,
               and (v) the Indemnifying Party conducts the defense of the Third
               Party Claim actively and diligently.

          (c)  So long as the Indemnifying Party is conducting the defense of
               the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 7.4(b), (i) the
               Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost
               and expense and participate in the defense of the Third Party
               Claim, (ii) the Indemnified Party will not consent to the entry
               of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the
               Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the
               Indemnifying Party (not to be withheld unreasonably), and (iii)
               the Indemnifying Party will not consent to the entry of any
               judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third
               Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified
               Party (not to be withheld unreasonably).

          (d)  If any of the conditions in Section 7.4(b) is not or is no longer
               satisfied, (i) the Indemnified Party may defend against, and
               consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement
               with respect to, the Third Party Claim in any manner it
               reasonably may deem appropriate (and the Indemnified Party need
               not consult with, or obtain any consent from, any Indemnifying
               Party), (ii) the Indemnifying Parties will reimburse the
               Indemnified Party promptly and periodically for the costs of
               defending against the Third Party Claim (including reasonable
               attorneys' fees and expenses), and (iii) the Indemnifying Parties
               will remain responsible for any Adverse Consequences the
               Indemnified Party may suffer resulting

                                       23

               from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by
               the Third Party Claim to the fullest extent provided in this
               Section 8.

     7.5  ADJUSTMENT TO PURCHASE PRICE. All indemnification payments under this
          Section 7 will be deemed adjustments to the Purchase Price.

     7.6  RECOUPMENT AGAINST INNUITY STOCK. Any indemnification to which the
          Buyer Parties are entitled under this Agreement as a result of any
          Adverse Consequences it may suffer arising out of the breach (or
          alleged breach) of any Adverse Consequences it may suffer will be
          satisfied by the Seller through the return of Innuity Stock held by
          the Seller with a value at the time such Adverse Consequences arose
          equal to the amount of such Adverse Consequences. The Buyer's right to
          recoup Adverse Consequences in exchange for a return of Innuity Stock
          under this Section 7.6 will not otherwise limit any rights of the
          Buyer Parties to recover under this Section 7.

     7.7  OTHER INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS. The above indemnification provisions
          are in addition to, and not in derogation of, any statutory, equitable
          or common law remedy any Party may have with respect to the
          transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Seller agrees that it
          will not make any claim for indemnification against any of the Buyer
          Parties by reason of the fact that he, she or it was a director,
          officer, employee, shareholder or agent of the Seller or was serving
          at the request of the entity as a partner, trustee, director, officer,
          employee or agent of another entity (whether the claim is for
          judgments, damages, penalties, fines, costs, amounts paid in
          settlement, losses, expenses or otherwise and whether the claim is
          pursuant to any statute, charter document, bylaw, agreement or
          otherwise) with respect to any action, suit, proceeding, complaint,
          claim or demand brought by any of the Buyer Parties against the Seller
          (whether the action, suit, proceeding, complaint, claim or demand is
          pursuant to this Agreement, applicable Law or otherwise).

8.   TERMINATION.

               breach, or (ii) if the Closing does not occur on or before
               December 31, 2006, by reason of the failure of any condition
               precedent under Section 6.1 of this Agreement (unless the failure
               results primarily from the Buyer itself breaching any
               representation, warranty or covenant contained in this
               Agreement), subject to extension by mutual agreement of the
               Parties;

               to the Buyer at any time prior to the Closing (i) in the event

               covenant contained in this Agreement and not qualified by
               materiality, or breached any representation, warranty or covenant
               contained in this Agreement that is qualified by materiality, and
               the Seller has notified the Buyer of the breach, and the breach
               cannot be cured or has continued without cure or written waiver
               by the Seller for a period of 10 days after the notice of breach,
               or (ii) if the Closing does not occur on or before December 31,
               2006, by reason of the failure of any condition precedent under
               Section 6.2 of this Agreement (unless the failure results
               primarily from the Seller itself breaching any representation,
               warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement), subject to
               extension by mutual agreement of the Parties;

          (d)  the Buyer may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice
               to the Seller on or before the 30th day following the date of
               this Agreement if the Buyer is not reasonably satisfied with the
               results of its continuing business, legal and accounting due
               diligence regarding the Seller; and

          (e)  Either Party may terminate this Agreement for any reason if the
               Closing has not occurred by December 31, 2006.

     8.2  EFFECT OF TERMINATION. If any Party terminates this Agreement pursuant
          to Section 8.1, all rights and obligations of the Parties under this
          Agreement will terminate without any Liability of any Party to any
          other Party (except for any Liability of any Party then in breach).

9.   MISCELLANEOUS.

     9.1  PRESS RELEASES AND PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENTS. The Seller will not make any
          public announcement regarding this Agreement following the Closing
          without the prior written consent of the Buyer. The Buyer will issue a
          press release following the Closing and will offer the Seller an
          opportunity to review the press release before it is distributed.

     9.2  NO THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARIES. This Agreement will not confer any
          rights or remedies upon any Person (including without limitation
          employees of the Seller) other than the Parties and their respective
          successors and permitted assigns.

     9.3  ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement (including the documents referred to
          in this Agreement) and the Transaction Documents constitute the entire
          agreement

          between the Parties and supersede any prior understandings, agreements
          or representations by or between the Parties, written or oral, to the
          extent they related in any way to the subject matter of this
          Agreement.

     9.4  SUCCESSION AND ASSIGNMENT. This Agreement will be binding upon and
          inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors
          and permitted assigns. No Party may assign either this Agreement or
          any of its rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement
          without the prior written approval of the other Party. The Buyer,
          however, may (a) assign any or all of its rights and interests
          hereunder to one or more of its Affiliates, and (b) designate one or
          more of its Affiliates to perform its obligations under this Agreement
          (in any or all of which cases the Buyer nonetheless will remain
          responsible for the performance of all of its obligations).

     9.5  COUNTERPARTS AND FACSIMILE SIGNATURES. This Agreement may be executed
          in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original
          but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument,
          and by facsimile.

     9.6  GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in
          accordance with the domestic laws of the State of Washington without
          giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule
          (whether of the State of Washington or any other jurisdiction) that
          would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than
          the State of Washington.

     9.7  AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. No amendment of any provision of this
          Agreement will be valid unless the same is in writing and signed by
          the Buyer and the Seller. No waiver by any Party of any default,
          misrepresentation or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether
          intentional or not, will be deemed to extend to any prior or
          subsequent default, misrepresentation or breach of warranty or
          covenant under this Agreement or affect in any way any rights arising
          by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence.

     9.8  SEVERABILITY. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid
          or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction will not affect
          the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions
          of this Agreement or the validity or enforceability of the offending
          term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction.

     9.9  EXPENSES. The Buyer and the Seller will bear their own costs and
          expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred in connection
          with this Agreement and the contemplated transactions.

     9.10 CONSTRUCTION. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation
          and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question
          of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement will be construed
          as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of
          proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the
          authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

EXECUTION COPY

          Nothing in either the Seller's Disclosure Schedule or the Buyer's
          Disclosure Schedule will be deemed adequate to disclose an exception
          to a representation or warranty made unless such disclosure schedule
          identifies the exception with reasonable particularity and describes
          the relevant facts in reasonable detail. Without limiting the
          foregoing, the mere listing (or inclusion of a copy) of a document or
          other item is not adequate to disclose an exception to a
          representation or warranty (unless the representation or warranty has
          to do with the existence of the document or other item itself). The
          Parties intend that each representation, warranty and covenant have
          independent significance. If any Party has breached any
          representation, warranty or covenant in any respect, the fact that
          there exists another representation, warranty or covenant relating to
          the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of
          specificity) that the Party has not breached does not detract from or
          mitigate the fact that the Party is in breach of the first
          representation, warranty or covenant.

     9.11 INCORPORATION OF EXHIBITS AND SCHEDULES. The Exhibits and Schedules
          identified in this Agreement are incorporated by reference and are
          made a part of this Agreement.

     9.12 NOTICES. All notices, requests, demands, claims and other
          communications under this Agreement will be in writing. Any notice,
          request, demand, claim or other communication under this Agreement
          will be deemed duly given two business days after it is sent by
          registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage
          prepaid and addressed to the intended recipient as set forth below:

          demand, claim or other communication will be deemed to have been duly
          given unless and until it actually is received by the intended

          this Agreement.

     9.13 SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that
          the other Party would be damaged irreparably in the event any of the
          provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with
          their specific terms or otherwise are breached. Accordingly, each of
          the Parties agrees that the other Party is entitled to an injunction
          or injunctions to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement
          and to enforce specifically this Agreement in any action instituted in
          any court of the United States or any state having jurisdiction over
          the Parties and the matter (subject to the provisions set forth in
          Section 9.14 below), in addition to any other remedy to which it may
          be entitled, at law or in equity.

     9.14 SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. Each of the Parties submits to the
          jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the State of
          Washington, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to
          this Agreement and agrees that all claims in respect of the action or
          proceeding may be heard and determined there. Each Party also agrees
          not to bring any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to
          this Agreement in any other court. Each of the Parties waives any
          defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any action or
          proceeding so brought and waives any bond, surety or other security
          that might be required of any other Party. Each Party agrees that a
          final judgment in any action or proceeding so brought will be
          conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other
          manner provided by law or in equity.

     9.15 SPECIAL MEETING; AGREEMENT TO VOTE MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS; PROXY. The
          Members will do the following in connection with this Agreement:

          (a)  SPECIAL MEETING. The Members, in their capacity as managers of

               respective operating agreements of the Seller and the Laws of the
               State of Nevada, will either (i) call a special meeting of the
               members of the Seller to be held as soon as practicable following
               the date of this Agreement in order for the members of the Seller
               to consider and vote upon this Agreement and the transactions
               contemplated thereby (the "SPECIAL MEETING"), or (ii) circulate a
               written consent to the members in accordance with Section 5.4 of
               the Operating Agreement.

          (b)  AGREEMENT TO VOTE MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS. At every meeting of the

               written consent of the members of the Seller held on or before
               the Closing or the termination of this Agreement, the Members
               will vote their membership interests in the Seller in accordance

               approval of any proposal made in opposition to or competition
               with consummation of this Agreement and the transactions
               contemplated by this Agreement; (iii) against any merger,
               consolidation, sale of assets, reorganization or
               recapitalization, with any Person other than with the Buyer and
               its Affiliates; and (iv) against any liquidation or winding up of
               the Seller (each of Sections 8.15(b)(ii), (iii) and (iv), an
               "OPPOSING PROPOSAL"). The Members will not, directly or

               concerning an Opposing Proposal or the possible disposition of
               all or any substantial portion of the Seller's business, assets
               or membership interests.

          (c)  PROXY. To secure the Members obligation to vote their membership
               interests in the Seller in accordance with the provisions of
               Section 9.15(b) of this Agreement, each Member does hereby

               the Buyer, with full power of substitution, from the date of this
               Agreement until the Closing Date or the termination of this
               Agreement in accordance with Section 8 of this Agreement, as his
               true and lawful proxy, for and in his name, place and stead,
               including the right to sign his name to any consent, certificate
