                                     All accounting terms not specifically
defined herein shall be construed in accordance with GAAP consistent with
those applied in the preparation of the financial statements referred to in

determining compliance with financial covenants or terms, including
definitions used therein, shall be prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles in effect at the time of the preparation of,
and in conformity with those used to prepare, the historical financial
statements delivered to the Lenders pursuant to Section 4.01(e) or Section
4.02(e), as the case may be.  If at any time the computations for determining
compliance with financial covenants or provisions relating thereto utilize
generally accepted accounting principles different than those then being
utilized in the financial statements being delivered to the Lenders, such
financial statements shall be accompanied by a reconciliation statement.

                    Section 2.01     The A Advances.
                                     --------------
                                     Each Lender severally agrees, on the
terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make A Advances to either
Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the
Effective Date until the Termination Date of such Lender in an aggregate
amount (together with the aggregate amount of A Advances made to the other
Borrower that is outstanding at such time) not to exceed at any time
outstanding the amount set opposite such Lender's name on Schedule IV hereto
or, if such Lender has entered into any Assignment and Acceptance, set forth
for such Lender in the Register maintained by the Agent pursuant to Section
9.07(c), as such amount may be reduced pursuant to Section 2.05 (such
Lender's "Commitment"), provided that the aggregate amount of the Commitments
of the Lenders shall be deemed used from time to time to the extent of the
aggregate amount of the B Advances then outstanding and at any time of
determination, such deemed use of the aggregate amount of the Commitments
shall be applied to the Lenders ratably according to their respective
Commitments in effect at such time of determination (such deemed use of the
aggregate amount of the Commitments being a "B Reduction").  Each A Borrowing
shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $5,000,000 or an integral
multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and shall

                                      12

<PAGE>

consist of A Advances of the same Type made on the same day to the same
Borrower by the Lenders ratably according to their respective Commitments.
Within the limits of each Lender's Commitment, each Borrower may from time to
time borrow, prepay pursuant to Section 2.06(d) and reborrow under this
Section 2.01.

                    Section 2.02     Making the A Advances.
                                     ---------------------

                    (a) Each A Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not
later than (x) 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the date of a proposed A
Borrowing consisting of Base Rate Advances and (y) 12:00 noon (New York City
time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of a proposed A Borrowing
consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, by the Borrower requesting the
proposed A Borrowing to the Agent, which shall give to each Lender prompt
notice thereof by telecopier, telex or cable.  Each such notice of an A
Borrowing (a "Notice of A Borrowing") shall be by telecopier, telex or cable,
confirmed immediately in writing, in substantially the form of Exhibit A-1
hereto, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such A Borrowing, (ii)
Type of A Advances comprising such A Borrowing, (iii) aggregate amount of
such A Borrowing, and (iv) in the case of an A Borrowing comprised of
Eurodollar Rate Advances, the initial Interest Period for each such A
Advance.  A Borrower may, subject to the conditions herein provided, borrow
more than one A Borrowing on any Business Day.  Each Lender shall, before
1:00 P.M. (New York City time) in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Base
Rate Advances and before 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) in the case of a
Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, in each case on the date of
such A Borrowing, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending
Office to the Agent at its address referred to in Section 9.02, in same day
funds, such Lender's ratable portion of such A Borrowing.  After the Agent's
receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set
forth in Article III, the Agent will make such funds available to the
Borrower requesting the proposed A Borrowing at the Agent's aforesaid
address.
                    (b) Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary
notwithstanding,

                         (i)     a Borrower may not select Eurodollar Rate
Advances for any A Borrowing or with respect to the Conversion or continuance
of any A Borrowing if the aggregate amount of such A Borrowing or such
Conversion or continuance is less than $5,000,000;

                         (ii)    there shall be no more than five Interest
Periods relating to Eurodollar Rate Advances outstanding at any time;

                         (iii)   if any Lender shall notify the Agent that
the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or
regulation makes it unlawful, or that any central bank or other governmental
authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its Eurodollar
Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurodollar Rate
Advances or to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances hereunder, the
Commitment of such Lender to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to Convert all
or any portion of Base Rate Advances shall forthwith be suspended until the
Agent shall notify the Borrowers that such Lender has determined that the
circumstances causing such

                                      13

<PAGE>

suspension no longer exist and such Lender's then outstanding Eurodollar Rate
Advances, if any, shall be Base Rate Advances; to the extent that such
affected Eurodollar Rate Advances become Base Rate Advances, all payments of
principal that would have been otherwise applied to such Eurodollar Rate
Advances shall be applied instead to such Lender's Base Rate Advances;
provided that if Majority Lenders are subject to the same illegality or
--------
assertion of illegality, then the right of a Borrower to select Eurodollar
Rate Advances for such A Borrowing or any subsequent A Borrowing or to
Convert all or any portion of Base Rate Advances shall forthwith be suspended
until the Agent shall notify the Borrowers that the circumstances causing
such suspension no longer exist, and each A Advance comprising such A
Borrowing shall be a Base Rate Advance;

                         (iv)    if fewer than two Reference Banks furnish
timely information to the Agent for determining the  Adjusted Eurodollar Rate
for any Eurodollar Rate Advances comprising any requested A Borrowing, the
right of a Borrower to select Eurodollar Rate Advances for such A Borrowing
or any subsequent A Borrowing shall be suspended until the Agent shall notify
the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension
no longer exist, and each A Advance comprising such A Borrowing shall be made
as a Base Rate Advance; and

                         (v)     if the Majority Lenders shall, at least one
Business Day before the date of any requested A Borrowing, notify the Agent
that the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for Eurodollar Rate Advances comprising
such A Borrowing will not adequately reflect the cost to such Majority
Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their respective Eurodollar Rate
Advances for such A Borrowing, the right of a Borrower to select Eurodollar
Rate Advances for such A Borrowing or any subsequent A Borrowing shall be
suspended until the Agent shall notify the Borrowers and the Lenders that the
circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and each A Advance
comprising such A Borrowing shall be made as a Base Rate Advance.

                    (c) Each Notice of A Borrowing shall be irrevocable and
binding on the Borrower requesting the proposed A Borrowing.  In the case of
any A Borrowing which the related Notice of A Borrowing specifies is to be
comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Borrower requesting the proposed A
Borrowing shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense
incurred by such Lender by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of
deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the A Advance to be
made by such Lender as part of such A Borrowing or by reason of the
termination of hedging or other similar arrangements, in each case when such
A Advance is not made on such date, including without limitation, as a result
of any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of A
Borrowing for such A Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article
III.

                     (d) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a
Lender prior to the date of any A Borrowing that such Lender will not make
available to the Agent such Lender's ratable portion of such A Borrowing, the
Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the
Agent on the date of such A Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of
this Section 2.02 and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make
available to the Borrower requesting the proposed A Borrowing on such date a
corresponding amount.  If and to

                                      14

<PAGE>

the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion
available to the Agent, such Lender and such Borrower severally agree to
repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together
with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made
available to such Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Agent,
at (i) in the case of such Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time
to A Advances comprising such A Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such
Lender, the Federal Funds Rate.  If such Lender shall repay to the Agent such
corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender's A
Advance as part of such A Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.

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

                    Section 2.03     The B Advances.
                                     --------------
                                     (a) Each Lender severally agrees that
either Borrower may make B Borrowings under this Section 2.03 from time to
time on any Business Day during the period from the date hereof until the
date occurring 30 days prior to the latest Commitment Termination Date of any
Lender then in effect in the manner set forth below; provided that, (i)
following the making of each B Borrowing, (1) the aggregate amount of the
Advances then outstanding to both Borrowers shall not exceed the aggregate
amount of the Commitments of the Lenders then in effect (computed without
regard to any B Reduction), and (2) the aggregate amount of the B Advances
scheduled to be outstanding to both Borrowers at any time through the
maturity of such B Advances shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the
Commitments of the Lenders scheduled to be in effect at such time (computed
without regard to any B Reduction), and (ii) no Lender may make a B Advance
if the maturity date of such B Advance occurs after the Commitment
Termination Date of such Lender.

                         (i)     Either Borrower may request a B Borrowing
under this Section 2.03 by delivering to the Agent, by telecopier, telex or
cable, confirmed immediately in writing, a notice of a B Borrowing (a "Notice
of B Borrowing"), in substantially the form of Exhibit A-2 hereto, specifying
the date and aggregate amount of the proposed B Borrowing, the maturity date
for repayment of each B Advance to be made as part of such B Borrowing (which
maturity date (x) in the case of a fixed rate B Borrowing may not be earlier
than the date occurring 14 days after the date of such B Borrowing or later
than the date occurring 180 days after the date of such B Borrowing, and (y)
in the case of any other B Borrowing may not be earlier than the date
occurring 30 days after the date of such B Borrowing or later than the date
occurring 180 days after the date of such B Borrowing), the interest payment
date or dates relating thereto, and any other terms to be applicable to such
B Borrowing, not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) (A) at least one
Business Day prior to the date of the proposed B Borrowing, if such Borrower
shall specify in the Notice of B Borrowing that the rates of interest to be
offered by the Lenders shall be fixed rates per annum and (B) at least four
Business Days prior to the date of the proposed B Borrowing, if such Borrower
shall instead specify in the Notice of B Borrowing the basis to be used by
the Lenders in determining the rates of interest to be

                                      15

<PAGE>

offered by them.  A Borrower may not select a maturity date for any B
Borrowing which ends after the latest Commitment Termination Date of any
Lender then in effect.  The Agent shall in turn promptly notify each Lender
of each request for a B Borrowing received by it from a Borrower by sending
such Lender a copy of the related Notice of B Borrowing.

                         (ii)    Each Lender may, if, in its sole discretion,
it elects to do so, irrevocably offer to make one or more B Advances to such
Borrower as part of such proposed B Borrowing at a rate or rates of interest
specified by such Lender in its sole discretion, by notifying the Agent
(which shall give prompt notice thereof to such Borrower), before 11:00 A.M.
(New York City time) (A) on the date of such proposed B Borrowing, in the
case of a Notice of B Borrowing delivered pursuant to clause (A) of paragraph
(i) above and (B) three Business Days before the date of such proposed B
Borrowing, in the case of a Notice of B Borrowing delivered pursuant to
clause (B) of paragraph (i) above, of the minimum amount and maximum amount
of each B Advance which such Lender would be willing to make as part of such
proposed B Borrowing (which amounts may, subject to the proviso to the first
sentence of this Section 2.03(a), exceed such Lender's Commitment), the rate
or rates of interest therefor and such Lender's Applicable Lending Office
with respect to such B Advance; provided that if the Agent in its capacity as
a Lender shall, in its sole discretion, elect to make any such offer, it
shall notify such Borrower of such offer before 10:00 A.M. (New York City
time) on the date on which notice of such election is to be given to the
Agent by the other Lenders.  If any Lender shall elect not to make such an
offer, such Lender shall so notify the Agent, before 10:00 A.M. (New York
City time) on the date on which notice of such election is to be given to the
Agent by the other Lenders, and such Lender shall not be obligated to, and
shall not, make any B Advance as part of such B Borrowing; provided that the
failure by any Lender to give such notice shall not cause such Lender to be
obligated to make any B Advance as part of such proposed B Borrowing.

                         (iii)   Such Borrower shall, in turn, (A) before
12:00 noon (New York City time) on the date of such proposed B Borrowing, in
the case of a Notice of B Borrowing delivered pursuant to clause (A) of
paragraph (i) above and (B) before 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) three
Business Days before the date of such proposed B Borrowing, in the case of a
Notice of B Borrowing delivered pursuant to clause (B) of paragraph (i)
above, either

                    (x)  cancel such B Borrowing by giving the Agent notice
to that effect, or

                    (y)  accept one or more of the offers made by any Lender
or Lenders pursuant to paragraph (ii) above (which acceptance shall be
irrevocable) in its sole discretion, by giving notice to the Agent of the
amount of each B Advance (which amount shall be equal to or greater than the
minimum amount, and equal to or less than the maximum amount, notified to
such Borrower by the Agent on behalf of such Lender for such B Advance
pursuant to paragraph (ii) above) to be made by each Lender as part of such B
Borrowing (provided that the aggregate amount of such B Borrowing shall not
exceed the amount specified on the Notice of B

                                      16

<PAGE>

Borrowing delivered by such Borrower pursuant to paragraph (i) above), and
reject any remaining offers made by Lenders pursuant to paragraph (ii) above
by giving the Agent notice to that effect; provided that acceptance of offers
                                           --------
may only be made on the basis of ascending rates for B Borrowings of the same
type and duration for up to the maximum amounts offered by Lenders; and
provided further that if offers are made by two or more Lenders for the same
-------- -------
type of B Borrowing for the same duration and with the same rate of interest,
in an aggregate amount which is greater than the amount requested, such
offers shall be accepted on a pro rata basis based on the maximum amounts
offered by such Lenders at such rate of interest.

                         (iv)    If such Borrower notifies the Agent that
such B Borrowing is cancelled pursuant to paragraph (iii)(x) above or if such
Borrower rejects any offers made by Lenders pursuant to paragraph (iii)(y)
above, the Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders or affected
Lenders, as the case may be, and in the case of a cancellation, such B
Borrowing shall not be made.

                         (v)     If such Borrower accepts one or more of the
offers made by any Lender or Lenders pursuant to paragraph (iii)(y) above,
the Agent shall in turn promptly notify (A) each Lender that has made an
offer as described in paragraph (ii) above, of the date and aggregate amount
of such B Borrowing and whether or not any offer or offers made by such
Lender pursuant to paragraph (ii) above have been accepted by such Borrower,
(B) each Lender that is to make a B Advance as part of such B Borrowing, of
the amount of each B Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such B
Borrowing, and (C) each Lender that is to make a B Advance as part of such B
Borrowing, upon receipt, that the Agent has received forms of documents
appearing to fulfill the applicable conditions set forth in Article III.
Each Lender that is to make a B Advance as part of such B Borrowing shall,
before 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the date of such B Borrowing
specified in the notice received from the Agent pursuant to clause (A) of the
preceding sentence or any later time when such Lender shall have received
notice from the Agent pursuant to clause (C) of the preceding sentence, make
available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Agent at
its address referred to in Section 9.02 such Lender's portion of such B
Borrowing, in same day funds.  Upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions
set forth in Article III and after receipt by the Agent of such funds, the
Agent will make such funds available to such Borrower at the Agent's
aforesaid address.  Promptly after each B Borrowing, the Agent will notify
each Lender of the amount of the B Borrowing, the consequent B Reduction and
the dates upon which such B Reduction commenced and will terminate.

                         (vi)    Each Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for
the Agent's account an auction fee in an amount agreed to in a separate
letter agreement between the Borrowers and the Agent for each Notice of B
Borrowing delivered by such Borrower to the Agent pursuant to this Section
2.03(a), whether or not a B Borrowing is made pursuant thereto.

<PAGE>

                    (b) Each B Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount not
less than $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof
and, following the making of each B Borrowing, the Borrowers and each Lender
shall be in compliance with the limitations set forth in the proviso to the
first sentence of subsection (a) above.

                    (c) Within the limits and on the conditions set forth in
this Section 2.03, either Borrower may from time to time borrow under this
Section 2.03, repay or prepay pursuant to subsection (d) below, and reborrow
under this Section 2.03, and more than one B Borrowing may be made on a
Business Day; provided that, except for B Borrowings made on the same
              --------
Business Day, a B Borrowing shall not be made within three Business Days of
the date of any other B Borrowing.

                    (d) Each Borrower shall repay to the Agent for the
account of each Lender which has made a B Advance to such Borrower, on the
maturity date of each B Advance made to such Borrower (such maturity date
being that specified by such Borrower for repayment of such B Advance in the
related Notice of B Borrowing delivered pursuant to subsection (a)(i) above),
the then unpaid principal amount of such B Advance.  Neither Borrower shall
have any right to prepay any principal amount of any B Advance unless, and
then only on the terms, specified by such Borrower for such B Advance in the
related Notice of B Borrowing delivered pursuant to subsection (a)(i) above.

                    (e) Each Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid
principal amount of each B Advance made to such Borrower from the date of
such B Advance to the date the principal amount of such B Advance is repaid
in full, at the rate of interest for such B Advance specified by the Lender
making such B Advance in its notice with respect thereto delivered pursuant
to subsection (a)(ii) above, payable on the interest payment date or dates
specified by such Borrower for such B Advance in the related Notice of B
Borrowing delivered pursuant to subsection (a)(i) above; provided that any
                                                         --------
principal amount of any B Advance which is not paid when due (whether at
stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) shall bear interest from the
date on which such amount is due until such amount is paid in full, payable
on demand, at a rate per annum equal at all times to (A) until the stated
maturity date of such B Advance, the greater of (x) 2% per annum above the
Base Rate in effect from time to time and (y) 2% above the stated rate per
annum of such B Advance, and (B) after the stated maturity of such B Advance,
2% per annum above the Base Rate in effect from time to time.

                    (f) Subject to the obligations of the Guarantor under the
Guaranty, neither Borrower shall have any obligation to repay to any Lender
any B Advance made by such Lender to the other Borrower or to pay any
interest on any B Advance made by such Lender to the other Borrower.

                                     ----

                    (a) Facility Fees.  The Borrowers jointly and severally
                        -------------
agree to pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender a facility fee on
the amount of such Lender's Commitment (or if no Commitment is in effect,
Advances), whether used or unused and without giving effect to any B
Reduction, from the date hereof in the case of each Bank and from the
effective date

                                      18

<PAGE>

specified in the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it became a
Lender in the case of each other Lender until the Termination Date of such
Lender, payable in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and
December during the term of such Lender's Commitment, commencing September
30, 2000, and on the Termination Date of such Lender, in an amount equal to
the product of (i) the average daily amount of such Lender's Commitment
(whether used or unused and without giving effect to any B Reduction) in
effect during the period for which such payment that is to be made times (ii)
the weighted average rate per annum that is derived from the following rates:
(a) a rate of 0.07% per annum with respect to each day during such period
that the higher of the Ratings was Level 1, (b) a rate of 0.10% per annum
with respect to each day during such period that the higher of such Ratings
was Level 2, (c) a rate of 0.125% per annum with respect to each day during
such period that the higher of such Ratings was Level 3 and (d) a rate of
0.15% per annum with respect to each day during such period that the higher
of such Ratings was Level 4.  If any change in the Rating shall result in a
change in the Level, the change in the facility fee shall be effective as of
the date on which such rating change is publicly announced (in the case of a
public rating) or is disclosed to the Corporation (in the case of a private
rating).  If Ratings are unavailable from both S&P or Moody's for any reason
for any day, then the applicable Level for purposes of calculating the
facility fee for such day shall be deemed to be Level 4 (or, if the Majority
Lenders consent in writing, such other Level as may be reasonably determined
by the Majority Lenders from a rating with respect to Long-Term Debt or the
Corporation for such day established by another rating agency reasonably
acceptable to the Majority Lenders).  If no Rating is available from S&P or
Moody's (but not both) for any reason for any day, then the applicable Level
shall be set by reference to the Rating of S&P or Moody's that is available
for such day.

                    (b) Agents' Fees.  The Borrowers agree to pay to the
                        ------------
Agent the fees payable pursuant to the fee letter dated as of August 16, 1999
between the Borrowers and CUSA, in the amounts and at the times specified in
such letter.

                                     -----------

                    (a) Mandatory Termination.  In the event that a mandatory
                        ---------------------
prepayment in full of the A Advances is required by Section 2.06(b), the
Commitments of the Lenders shall immediately terminate.

                    (b) Optional Reductions.  The Borrowers shall have the
                        -------------------
right, upon at least four Business Days' notice to the Agent by both
Borrowers, to terminate in whole or reduce ratably in part the unused
portions of the respective Commitments of the Lenders, provided that the
aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Lenders shall not be reduced to an
amount which is less than the aggregate principal amount of the Advances then
outstanding, and provided, further, that each partial reduction shall be in
the aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in
excess thereof.

                                     --------------------------------------

                    (a) Mandatory Repayment on Termination Date.  Each
                        ---------------------------------------
Borrower shall repay the outstanding principal amount of each A Advance made
by each Lender to such Borrower on the Termination Date of such Lender.
(b) Mandatory Prepayment in Certain Events.  If any one of the following
events shall occur:

                         (i)     Representatives of CSC Partners shall cease
to constitute a majority of the Partnership's Partnership Committee (or
similar body which may replace such Partnership Committee) or the rights and
powers of such Partnership Committee shall be materially diminished in a
manner such that the Partnership's Partnership Committee (or similar body
which may replace such Partnership Committee) shall cease to have
substantially the same ability to control the operations or policies of the
Partnership as it has on the date hereof; or

                         (ii)    CSC Enterprises, Inc. shall cease to be the
Managing Partner (unless the successor Managing Partner is a Subsidiary of
the Corporation of which the Corporation owns at least 80% of the voting
stock) or, if CSC Enterprises, Inc. is the Managing Partner of the
Partnership, the Corporation shall cease to own, directly or indirectly, at
least 80% of the voting stock of CSC Enterprises, Inc., or the rights and
powers of the Managing Partner shall be materially diminished in a manner
such that the Managing Partner shall cease to have substantially the same
ability to control the operations or policies of the Partnership as it has on
the date hereof; or

                         (iii)   The Partnership shall transfer a majority of
its assets to any Person other than the Corporation or one or more
Subsidiaries of the Corporation of which the Corporation owns at least 80% of
the voting stock; or

                         (iv)    The Corporation shall cease to directly or
indirectly (through its Subsidiaries of which it owns at least 80% of the
voting stock) own more than 50% of the outstanding partnership interest of
the Partnership;

then, and in any such event, the Partnership shall immediately prepay in full
the A Advances made to the Partnership, and shall immediately make an offer
to all Lenders which have made B Advances to the Partnership to prepay such B
Advances, and shall immediately prepay in full the B Advances of all Lenders
accepting such offer, and in the case of all Advances so prepaid the
Partnership will pay interest accrued to the date of prepayment and will
reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 9.04(b).

                    (c) Mandatory Prepayment Due to Reductions of
                        -----------------------------------------
Commitments.  Each Borrower shall from time to time prepay the A Advances
-----------
made to such Borrower to the extent necessary so that the aggregate principal
amount of the Advances does not exceed the aggregate amount of the
Commitments of the Lenders then in effect (computed without regard to any B
Reduction).

<PAGE>

                    (d) Voluntary Prepayments of A Borrowings.  Neither
                        -------------------------------------
Borrower shall have any right to prepay any principal amount of any A
Advances other than as provided in this subsection (d).  Each Borrower may,
upon at least one Business Day's notice to the Agent in the case of Base Rate
Advances and at least three Business Days' notice to the Agent in the case of
Eurodollar Rate Advances stating the proposed date and aggregate principal
amount of the prepayment, and if such notice is given such Borrower shall,
prepay the outstanding principal amounts of the Advances made to such
Borrower comprising part of the same A Borrowing in whole or ratably in part;
provided, however, that (x) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate
--------  -------
principal amount not less than $5,000,000 and integral multiples of
$1,000,000 in excess thereof and (y) in the case of any such prepayment of
any Eurodollar Rate Advance, such Borrower shall pay all accrued interest to
the date of such prepayment on the portion of such Eurodollar Rate Advance
being prepaid and shall be obligated to reimburse the Lenders in respect
thereof pursuant to Section 9.04(b).

                    (e) Certain Obligations Several.  Subject to the
                        ---------------------------
obligations of the Guarantor under the Guaranty, neither Borrower shall have
any obligation to repay to any Lender any A Advance made by such Lender to
the other Borrower or to pay any interest on any A Advance made by such
Lender to the other Borrower.

                    Section 2.07     Interest on A Advances.
                                     ----------------------
                           Each Borrower shall pay interest accrued on the
principal amount of each A Advance that was made to such Borrower outstanding
from time to time from the date of such A Advance until such principal amount
shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum:

                    (a) Base Rate Advances.  If such A Advance is a Base Rate
                        ------------------
Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times to the Base Rate in effect from
time to time, payable in arrears on the last day of each March, June,
September and December during the term of this Agreement, commencing
September 30, 2000, and on the Termination Date of the applicable Lender;
provided that any amount of principal, interest, fees and other amounts
payable under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the principal
amount of Base Rate Advances, but excluding the principal amount of
Eurodollar Rate Advances and B Advances) which is not paid when due (whether
at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) shall bear interest from
the date on which such amount is due until such amount is paid in full,
payable on demand, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum
above the Base Rate in effect from time to time.

                    (b) Eurodollar Rate Advances.  If such A Advance is a
                        ------------------------
Eurodollar Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times during the
Interest Period for such A Advance to the sum of the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate
for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin, payable in arrears on
the last day of such Interest Period and, if such Interest Period has a
duration of more than three months, on the day which occurs during such
Interest Period three months from the first day of such Interest Period;
provided that any principal amount of any Eurodollar Rate Advance which is
--------
not paid when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise)
shall bear interest from the date on which such amount is due until such
amount is paid in full, payable on demand, at a rate per annum equal at all
times to (A) during the Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Rate
Advance, the greater of (x) 2% per annum above the Base Rate in effect from
time to time and (y) 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to

                                      21

<PAGE>

be paid on such amount immediately prior to the date on which such amount
became due and (B) after the expiration of such Interest Period, 2% per annum
above the Base Rate in effect from time to time.

                    Section 2.08     Interest Rate Determination.
                                     ---------------------------

                    (a) Each Reference Bank agrees to furnish to the Agent
timely information for the purpose of determining each Adjusted Eurodollar
Rate.  If any one or more of the Reference Banks shall not furnish such
timely information to the Agent for the purpose of determining any such
interest rate, the Agent shall determine such interest rate on the basis of
timely information furnished by the remaining Reference Banks, subject to
Section 2.02(b)(iv).

                    (b) The Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrowers
and the Lenders of the applicable interest rate determined by the Agent for
purposes of Section 2.07(a) or 2.07(b), and the applicable rate, if any,
furnished by each Reference Bank for the purpose of determining the
applicable interest rate under Section 2.07(b).

                    Section 2.09     Voluntary Conversion or Continuation of
                                     ---------------------------------------
                                     A Advances.
                                     ----------

                    (a) Each Borrower may on any Business Day, upon notice
given to the Agent not later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the
third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion or
continuance (a "Notice of Conversion/Continuation") and subject to the
provisions of Section 2.02(b), (1) Convert all Advances of one Type
comprising the same A Borrowing made to such Borrower into A Advances of
another Type and (2) upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to
A Advances which are Eurodollar Rate Advances made to such Borrower, continue
all (or, subject to Section 2.02(b), any portion of) such A Advances as
Eurodollar Rate Advances and the succeeding Interest Period(s) of such
continued A Advances shall commence on the last day of the Interest Period of
the A Advances to be continued; provided, however, that any Conversion of any
                                --------  -------
Eurodollar Rate Advances into A Advances of another Type shall be made on,
and only on, the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate
Advances.  Each such Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall, within the
restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such continuation or
Conversion, (ii) the A Advances (or, subject to Section 2.02(b), any portion
thereof) to be continued or Converted, (iii) if such continuation is of, or
such Conversion is into, Eurodollar Rate Advances, the duration of the
Interest Period for each such A Advance and (iv) that no Potential Event of
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

                    (b) If upon the expiration of the then existing Interest
Period applicable to any A Advance which is a Eurodollar Rate Advance made to
either Borrower, such Borrower shall not have delivered a Notice of
Conversion/Continuation in accordance with this Section 2.09, then such
Advance shall upon such expiration automatically be Converted to a Base Rate
Advance.

                    (c) After the occurrence of and during the continuance of
a Potential Event of Default or an Event of Default, a Borrower may not elect
to have an A Advance be made or

                                      22

<PAGE>

continued as, or Converted into, a Eurodollar Rate Advance after the
expiration of any Interest Rate then in effect for that A Advance.

                    Section 2.10     Increased Costs.
                                     ---------------

                    (a) If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any
change (other than any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve
requirements in the case of Eurodollar Rate Advances included in the
Eurodollar Rate Reserve Percentage) in or in the interpretation of any law or
regulation or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any
central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force
of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender of agreeing to
make or making, funding or maintaining Eurodollar Rate Advances made to
either Borrower, then such Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by
such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Agent), pay to the Agent for
the account of such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such
Lender for such increased cost.  A reasonably detailed certificate as to the
amount and manner of calculation of such increased cost, submitted to such
Borrower and the Agent by such Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for
all purposes, absent manifest error.

                    (b) If any Lender determines that compliance with any law
or regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other
governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or
would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by
such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender and that the amount of
such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender's
commitment to lend hereunder and other commitments of this type, then, upon
demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Agent), the
Borrowers shall immediately pay, jointly and severally, to the Agent for the
account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender,
additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such corporation
in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender reasonably
determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such
Lender's commitment to lend hereunder.  A reasonably detailed certificate as
to such amounts and the manner of calculation thereof submitted to the
Borrowers and the Agent by such Lender shall be conclusive and binding for
all purposes, absent manifest error.

                    (c) If a Lender shall change its Applicable Lending
Office, such Lender shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment
under Sections 2.10 and 2.12 than the amount such Lender would have been
entitled to receive if it had not changed its Applicable Lending Office,
unless such change was made at the request of a Borrower or at a time when
the circumstances giving rise to such greater payment did not exist.

                    Section 2.11     Payments and Computations.
                                     -------------------------

                    (a) Each Borrower shall make each payment hereunder not
later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the day when due in U.S. dollars
to the Agent at its address referred to in Section 9.02 in same day funds.
Subject to the immediately succeeding sentence, the Agent will promptly
thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of

                                      23

<PAGE>

principal or interest or facility fees ratably (other than amounts payable
pursuant to Section 2.03, 2.10 or 2.12 or, to the extent the Termination Date
is not the same for all Lenders, pursuant to Section 2.06(a)) to the Lenders
for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like
funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to
such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to
be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  Upon receipt of
principal or interest paid after an Event of Default and an acceleration or a
deemed acceleration of amounts due hereunder, the Agent will promptly
thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of
principal or interest ratably in accordance with each Lender's outstanding A
Advances and B Advances (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.10
or 2.12) to the Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable
Lending Offices.  Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Acceptance and
recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to
Section 9.07(d), from and after the effective date specified in such
Assignment and Acceptance, the Agent shall make all payments hereunder in
respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder,
and the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance shall make all appropriate
adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date
directly between themselves.

                    (b) All computations of interest based on the Base Rate
shall be made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the
case may be, and all computations of interest based on the Adjusted
Eurodollar Rate or the Federal Funds Rate and of facility fees shall be made
by the Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual
number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring
in the period for which such interest or such fees are payable.  Each
determination by the Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive
and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

                    (c) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be
due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the
next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case
be included in the computation of payment of interest or facility fee, as the
case may be; provided, however, if such extension would cause payment of
             --------  -------
interest on or principal of Eurodollar Rate Advances to be made in the next
following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding
Business Day.

                    (d) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a
Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders
hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Agent
may assume that such Borrower has made such payment in full to the Agent on
such date and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be
distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount
then due such Lender.  If and to the extent that such Borrower shall not have
so made such payment in full to the Agent, each Lender shall repay to the
Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together
with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed
to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Agent, at
the Federal Funds Rate.

                    Section 2.12     Taxes.
                                     -----

                                      24

<PAGE>

                    (a) Any and all payments by a Borrower hereunder shall be
made, in accordance with Section 2.11, free and clear of and without
deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts,
deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect
thereto, excluding, in the case of each Lender and the Agent, (i) taxes
         ---------
imposed on its income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction
under the laws of which such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) is
organized or any political subdivision thereof or in which its principal
office is located, (ii) taxes imposed on its income, and franchise taxes
imposed on it, by the jurisdiction of such Lender's Applicable Lending Office
or any political subdivision thereof, (iii) taxes imposed upon or measured by
the overall net income of such Lender by the United States of America or any
political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, and (iv) United
States income taxes (including withholding taxes with respect to payments
hereunder) payable with respect to payments hereunder under laws (including
without limitation any statute, treaty, ruling, determination or regulation)
in effect on the date hereof in the case of each Bank and on the effective
date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it became a Lender in
the case of each other Lender (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts,
deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred
to as "Taxes").  If a Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes
from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender or the Agent,
(i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after
making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional
sums payable under this Section 2.12) such Lender or the Agent (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 pay the full amount deducted to the relevant
taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

                    (b) In addition, the Borrowers jointly and severally
agree to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other
excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from the
execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this
Agreement (hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes").

                    (c) Each Borrower will indemnify each Lender and the
Agent for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (to the extent specifically
attributable to Borrowings made by such Borrower) (including, without
limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes (to the extent specifically attributable
to Borrowings made by such Borrower) imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts
payable under this Section 2.12) and the Borrowers jointly and severally will
indemnify each Lender and the Agent for the full amount of Taxes or Other
Taxes (to the extent not specifically attributable to Borrowings made by a
particular Borrower) (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes
(to the extent not specifically attributable to Borrowings made by a
particular Borrower) imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under
this Section 2.12), in each case paid by such Lender or the Agent (as the
case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses)
arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other
Taxes were correctly or legally asserted.  This indemnification shall be made
within 30 days from the date such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be)
makes written demand therefor.

                                      25

<PAGE>

                    (d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of
Taxes, the Borrowers, or either of them, will furnish to the Agent, at its
address referred to in Section 9.02, the original or a certified copy of a
receipt evidencing payment thereof.

                    (e) Each Lender organized under the laws of a
jurisdiction outside the United States, on or prior to the date of its
execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Bank and on the
date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender
in the case of each other Lender, and from time to time thereafter if
requested in writing by either Borrower (but only so long as such Lender
remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide such Borrower with Internal
Revenue Service form W-8BEN or W-8BCI, as appropriate, or any successor form
prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, to establish that such Lender is
not subject to United States withholding tax with respect to any payments of
interest payable under this Agreement.  If the form provided by a Lender at
the time such Lender first becomes a party to this Agreement indicates a
United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding
tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from "Taxes" as defined in
Section 2.12(a).

                    (f) For any period with respect to which a Lender has
failed to provide a Borrower with the appropriate form described in Section
2.12(e) (other than if such failure is due to a change in law occurring
subsequent to the date on which a form originally was required to be
provided, or if such form otherwise is not required under the first sentence
of subsection (e) above), such Lender shall not be entitled to
indemnification under Section 2.12(a) with respect to Taxes imposed by the
United States; provided, however, that should a Lender become subject to
               --------  -------
Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, such
Borrower shall, at the expense of such Lender, take such steps as the Lender
shall reasonably request to assist the Lender to recover such Taxes.

                    (g) Without prejudice to the survival of any other
agreement of the Borrowers hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the
Borrowers contained in this Section 2.12 shall survive the payment in full of
principal and interest hereunder.

                    Section 2.13     Sharing of Payments, Etc.
                                     ------------------------
                                     If any Lender shall obtain any payment
(whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-
off, or otherwise) on account of the A Advances made by it (other than
pursuant to Section 2.10 or 2.12 or, to the extent the Termination Date is
not the same for all Lenders, pursuant to Section 2.06(a)) in excess of its
ratable share of payments on account of the A Advances obtained by all the
Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such
participations in the A Advances made by them as shall be necessary to cause
such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them,
provided,however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is
-------- -------
thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each
Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing
Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an
amount equal to such Lender's ratable share (according to the proportion of
(i) the amount of such Lender's required repayment to (ii) the total amount
so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid
or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so
recovered.  The Borrowers agree that any Lender so purchasing a participation
from another Lender pursuant to this Section

                                      26

<PAGE>

2.13 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of
payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation
as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the applicable
Borrower in the amount of such participation.

                    Section 2.14     Evidence of Debt.
                                     ----------------

                    (a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its
usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each
Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Advance owing to such Lender from
time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and
paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.  Each Borrower agrees that
upon notice by any Lender to such Borrower (with a copy of such notice to the
Agent) to the effect that a promissory note or other evidence of indebtedness
is required or appropriate in order for such Lender to evidence (whether for
purposes of pledge, enforcement or otherwise) the A Advances or the B
Advances owing to, or to be made by, such Lender, such Borrower shall
promptly execute and deliver to such Lender promissory notes or other
evidence of such indebtedness, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
to such Borrower and such Lender, payable to the order of such Lender in a
principal amount equal, in the case of the A Advances, to the aggregate
principal amount of the Commitment of such Lender and, in the case of the B
Advances, to the outstanding principal amount of B Advances of such Lender;
provided, however, that the execution and delivery of such promissory note or
--------  -------
other evidence of indebtedness shall not be a condition precedent to the
making of any Advance under this Agreement.

                    (b) The Register maintained by the Agent pursuant to
Section 9.07(c) shall include a control account, and a subsidiary account for
each Lender, in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the

                                     ---------------------------------------
                                     Date.
                                     ----
                                     The Borrowers may, not later than 30
days prior to each anniversary of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
Effective Date (the "Current Anniversary Date"), and not more than once in
any calendar year, commencing not later than 30 days prior to the first
anniversary of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement Effective Date, from
time to time jointly request that the Commitment Termination Date for all
Eligible Lenders (as defined below) be extended by delivering to the Agent a
copy of an extension request signed by both Borrowers (an "Extension
Request") in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto.  The Agent shall
promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of such Extension Request.  On or
prior to the fifteenth day (the "Determination Date") prior to the Current
Anniversary Date, each Eligible Lender shall notify the Agent and the
Borrowers of its willingness or unwillingness to extend its Commitment
Termination Date hereunder.  Any Eligible Lender that shall fail to so notify
the Agent and the Borrowers on or prior to the Determination Date shall be
deemed to have declined to so extend.  In the event that, on or prior to the
Determination Date, Eligible Lenders representing more than 50% of the
aggregate amount of the Commitments of all Eligible Lenders then in effect
shall consent to such extension, the Agent shall so advise the Lenders and
the Borrowers, and, subject to execution of documentation evidencing such
extension and consents, the Commitment Termination Date of each Eligible
Lender (each a "Consenting Lender") that has consented on or prior to the
Determination Date to so extend shall be extended to the date indicated in
the Extension Request.  Thereafter, (i) for each Consenting Lender, the term
"Commitment Termination Date" as used herein and in any promissory note
executed and delivered by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.14 hereof,
shall at all times refer to such date, unless it is later extended pursuant
to this Section 2.16, and (ii) for each Lender that is not an Eligible Lender
and for each Eligible Lender that either has declined on or prior to the
Determination Date to so extend or is deemed to have so declined, the term
"Commitment Termination Date" shall at all times refer to the date which was
the Commitment Termination Date of such Lender immediately prior to the
delivery to the Agent of such Extension Request.  In the event that, as of
the Determination Date, the Consenting Lenders represent 50% or less of the
aggregate amount of the Commitments of all Eligible Lenders then in effect,
the Agent shall so advise the Lenders and the Borrowers, and none of the
Lenders' Commitment Termination Dates shall be extended to the date indicated
in the Extension Request and each Lender's Commitment Termination Date shall
continue to be the date which was the Commitment Termination Date of such
Lender immediately prior to the delivery to the Agent of such Extension
Request.  For purposes of this Section 2.16, the term "Eligible Lenders"
means, with respect to any Extension Request, (i) all Lenders if no Lender's
Commitment Termination Date had been extended pursuant to this Section 2.16
prior to the delivery to the Agent of such Extension Request, and (ii) in all
other cases, those Lenders which had extended their Commitment Termination
Date in the most recent extension of any Commitment Termination Date effected
pursuant to this Section 2.16.

                    Section 2.17     Substitution of Lenders.
                                     -----------------------
                                     If any Lender requests compensation from
a Borrower under Section 2.10(a) or (b) or if any Lender declines to extend
its Commitment Termination Date pursuant to Section 2.16, the Borrowers shall
have the right,

                                      28

<PAGE>

with the assistance of the Agent, to seek one or more substitute banks or
financial institutions (which may be one or more of the Lenders) reasonably
satisfactory to the Agent and the Borrowers to purchase the Advances and
assume the Commitments of such Lender, and the Borrowers, the Agent, such
Lender, and such substitute banks or financial institutions shall execute and
deliver an appropriately completed Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to
Section 9.07(a) hereof to effect the assignment of rights to and the
assumption of obligations by such substitute banks or financial institutions;
provided that such requesting Lender shall be entitled to (i) compensation
--------
under Section 2.10 for any costs incurred by it prior to its replacement,
(ii) payment of all A Advances of such Lender then outstanding and all
interest and fees accrued to the date of such payment, and (iii) if any
Eurodollar Rate Advances of such Lender are then outstanding, any
reimbursement which would be payable under Section 9.04(b) in connection with
a prepayment of such Eurodollar Rate Advances on such date.

                    Section 2.18     Increased Commitments; Additional
                                     ---------------------------------
                                     Lenders.
                                     -------

                    (a) No more than once per year from the Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement Effective Date, the Borrowers may, upon at least
thirty (30) days notice to the Agent (which shall promptly provide a copy of
such notice to the Lenders), propose to increase the aggregate amount of the
Commitments in increments of $25,000,000, the total amount of all such
increases not to exceed $250,000,000 (the amount of any such increase, the
"Increased Commitments"); provided that at the time of and after giving
                          --------
effect to any increase in the Commitments (and the delivery of the applicable
commitment increase notice shall constitute a representation and warranty by
the Partnership and the Corporation that on the effective date of such
increase such statements are true) (i) the Corporation's Long-Term Debt
ratings from Moody's and S&P are better than or equal to Baa2 or BBB,
respectively; (ii) the representations and warranties  of the Partnership and
the Corporation contained in Article IV are correct on and as of the date of
such increase, before and after giving effect to such increase, as though
made on and as of such date, except to the extent that any such
representation or warranty expressly relates only to an earlier date, in
which case they were correct as of such earlier date; (iii) no Event of
Default or Potential Event of Default exists and is continuing ; (iv) on the
date of such increase, (x) there shall be no A Advances outstanding or all
Interest Periods shall have ended and (y) and all accrued and unpaid interest
on the A Advances and all accrued and unpaid Facility Fees shall have been
paid in full and (v) after any such increase, no Lender's Commitment shall
exceed 50% of the aggregate amount of the Commitments.  Each Lender party to
this Agreement at such time shall have the right (but no obligation), for a
period of fifteen (15) days following receipt of such notice, to elect by
notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to increase its
Commitment by a principal amount which bears the same ratio to the Increased
Commitments as its then Commitment bears to the aggregate Commitments then
existing.

                    (b) If any Lender party to this Agreement shall not elect
to increase its Commitment pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section, the
Borrowers may designate another lender or other lenders (which may be, but
need not be, one or more of the existing Lenders) which at the time agree to
(i) in the case of any such lender that is an existing Lender, increase its
Commitment and (ii) in the case of any other such lender (an "Additional
Lender"), become a

                                      29

<PAGE>

party to this Agreement.  The sum of the increases in the Commitments of the
existing Lenders pursuant to this subsection (b) plus the Commitments of the
Additional Lenders shall not in the aggregate exceed the unsubscribed amount
of the Increased Commitments.

                    (c) An increase in the aggregate amount of the
Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.18 shall become effective upon the
receipt by the Agent of an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to
the Agent signed by the Borrowers, by each Additional Lender and by each
other Lender whose Commitment is to be increased, setting forth the new
Commitments of such Lenders and setting forth the agreement of each
Additional Lender to become a party to this Agreement and to be bound by all
the terms and provisions hereof, together with such evidence of appropriate
corporate authorization on the part of the Borrowers with respect to the
Increased Commitments and such opinions of counsel for the Borrowers with
respect to the Increased Commitments as the Agent may reasonably request.

                                     --------------------------------

                                     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, any Lender, (a "Granting Lender") may grant to a special
purpose funding vehicle (an "SPC") the option to fund all or any part of any
Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to fund pursuant
to this Agreement; provided  the (i) nothing herein shall constitute a
                   --------
commitment by an SPC to fund any Loan, and (ii) if an SPC elects not to
exercise such option or otherwise fails to fund all or any part of such Loan,
the Granting Lender shall be obligated to fund such Loan pursuant to the
terms hereof.  The funding of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the
Revolving Credit Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as
if, such Loan were funded by such Granting Lender.  Each party hereto hereby
agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or payment under this
Agreement for which a Lender would otherwise be liable for so long as, and to
the extent, the Granting Lender provides such indemnity or makes such
payment.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, any SPC may disclose on a confidential basis any non-public
information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency, commercial
paper dealer or provider of any surety or guarantee to such SPC.  This
Section may not be amended without the prior written consent of each Granting
Lender, all or any part of whose outstanding Loans is being funded by an SPC
at the time of such amendment.

misleading in light of the circumstances under which the same were made.

                    (l) Insurance.  The Partnership and its Subsidiaries (i)
                        ---------

any material respect than the insurance the Partnership and its Subsidiaries
have carried in accordance with their past practices or (B) prudent given the
nature of the business of the Partnership and its Subsidiaries and the
prevailing practice among companies similarly situated or (ii) maintain a
plan or plans of self-insurance to such extent and covering such risks as is
usual for companies of comparable size engaged in the same or similar
business which plan or plans provide for, among other things,  adequate
reserves for the risks being self-insured.

                         (m) Environmental Matters.  (i) The Partnership and
                             ---------------------
each of its Subsidiaries is in compliance in all material respects with all
Environmental Laws the non-compliance with which could reasonably be expected
to have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or operations of
the Partnership and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and (ii) there has
been no "release or threatened release of a hazardous substance" (as defined
by the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act
of 1980, as amended, 42 U.S.C. Section 9601 et seq.) or any other release,
emission or discharge into the environment of any hazardous or toxic
substance, pollutant or other materials from the Partnership's or its
Subsidiaries' property other than as permitted under applicable Environmental
Law and other than those which would not have a material adverse effect on
the financial condition or operations of the Partnership and its
Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.  Other than disposals for which the
Partnership has been indemnified in full, all "hazardous waste" (as defined
by the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, 42 U.S.C. Section 6901 et seq.
                                                                      -- ---

shall continue to be disposed of at sites which maintain valid permits under
RCRA and any applicable state or local Environmental Law.

                    (n) Year 2000 Compliance. The Partnership has developed
                        --------------------
and budgeted for a comprehensive program to address the "year 2000 problem"
(that is, the inability of computers and computer software, as well as
embedded microchips in non-computing devices, to properly perform date-
sensitive functions with respect to certain dates prior to and after December
31, 1999).  The Partnership has, to date, implemented that program
substantially in accordance with its timetable and budget.  The Partnership
reasonably believes that the year 2000 problem will not result in a material
adverse change in the business, condition (financial or otherwise),
operations or properties of the Partnership and its Subsidiaries, taken as a
whole.  The Partnership has developed adequate contingency plans to ensure
uninterrupted and unimpaired business operation in the event of a failure of
its own or a third party's systems or equipment due to the year 2000 problem.

affect the legality, validity or enforceability of this Agreement.

their respective obligations under this Agreement.

                    (j) ERISA.

                         (i)     No ERISA Event which might result in

and (y) the sum (determined as of the date of occurrence of such ERISA Event)
of the Insufficiency of such Pension Plan and the Insufficiency of any and

                         (iii)   Either Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate shall
have been notified by the sponsor of a Multiemployer Plan that such

meaning of Title IV or ERISA, if as a result of such reorganization or
termination the aggregate annual contributions of such Borrower and its ERISA

which are here expressly waived by the Borrowers; provided, however, that in
                                                  --------  -------

                                     ------------------------
                                     Each Lender hereby appoints and
authorizes the Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to
exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Agent by
the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental
thereto.  As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement
(including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of the Advances and
other amounts owing hereunder), the Agent shall not be required to exercise
any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain
from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from
acting) upon the instructions of the Majority Lenders, and such instructions
shall be binding upon all Lenders; provided, however, that the Agent shall
                                   --------  -------
not be required to take any action which exposes the Agent to personal
liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law.  The
Agent agrees to give to each Lender prompt notice of each notice given to it
by either Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

                                     ---------------------
                                     Neither the Agent nor any of its
directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken
or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this
Agreement, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful
misconduct.  Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, the
Agent:  (i) may treat the payee of any Advance as the holder thereof until
the Agent receives and accepts an Assignment and Acceptance entered into by
the Lender which is the payee of such Advance, as assignor, and an Eligible
Assignee, as assignee, as provided in Section 9.07; (ii) may consult with
legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrowers), independent public
accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any
action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with
the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (iii) makes no warranty
or representation to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender
for any statements, warranties or representations (whether written or oral)
made in or in connection with this Agreement; (iv) shall not have any duty to
ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the
terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement on the part of the
Partnership or the Corporation or to inspect the property (including the
books and records) of the Partnership or the Corporation; (v) shall not be
responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity,
enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any
other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; and (vi) shall incur
no liability under or in respect of this Agreement by acting upon any notice,
consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by
telecopier, telegram, cable or telex) believed by it to be genuine and signed
or sent by the proper party or parties.

                                     -------------------
                                     With respect to its Commitment, the
Advances made by it, CUSA shall have the same rights and powers under this
Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not
the Agent; and the term "Lender" or "Lenders" shall, unless otherwise
expressly indicated, include CUSA in its individual capacity.  CUSA and its
affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under
indentures of, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the
Borrowers, any of their respective subsidiaries and any Person who may do
business with or own securities of either Borrower or any such subsidiary,
all as if CUSA were not the Agent and without any duty to account therefor to
the Lenders.

                                     ----------------------
                                     Each Lender acknowledges that it has,
independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender and
based on the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other
documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit
analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement.  Each Lender also
acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent
or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall
deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in
taking or not taking action under this Agreement.

                    Section 7.05     Indemnification.
                                     ---------------
                                     The Lenders agree to indemnify the Agent
(to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers), ratably according to the
respective principal amounts of the A Advances then held by each of them (or
if no A Advances are at the time outstanding or if any A Advances are held by
Persons which are not Lenders, ratably according

                                      53

<PAGE>

to the respective amounts of their Commitments), from and against any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever
which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Agent in any
way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any action taken or
omitted by the Agent under this Agreement, provided that no Lender shall be
                                           --------
liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements
resulting from the Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.  Without
limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Agent
promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses
(including counsel fees) incurred by the Agent in connection with the
preparation, execution, delivery, administration, syndication, modification,
amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or
otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities
under, this Agreement, to the extent that the Agent is not reimbursed for
such expenses by the Borrowers.

                                     ---------------
                                     The Agent may resign at any time by
giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrowers and may be
removed at any time with or without cause by the Majority Lenders.  Upon any
such resignation or removal, the Majority Lenders shall have the right to
appoint a successor Agent.  If no successor Agent shall have been so
appointed by the Majority Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment,
within 30 days after the retiring Agent's giving of notice of resignation or
the Majority Lenders' removal of the retiring Agent, then the retiring Agent
may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent which shall be a
commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or
of any State thereof or any Bank and, in each case having a combined capital
and surplus of at least $50,000,000.  Upon the acceptance of any appointment
as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon
succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and
duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from
its duties and obligations under this Agreement.  After any retiring Agent's
resignation or removal hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Article VII
shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by
it while it was Agent under this Agreement.

                                  ARTICLE VIII
                                  THE GUARANTY

                    Section 8.01     Guaranty of the Guarantied Obligations.
                                     --------------------------------------
                                     The Guarantor hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally guaranties, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, the
due and punctual payment in full of all Guarantied Obligations when and as
the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment
or declaration of (or in certain circumstances automatic) acceleration
(including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the
automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. Section
362(a)).  The term "Guarantied Obligations" is used herein in its most
comprehensive sense and includes:

                    (a) any and all obligations of the Partnership in respect
of notes, advances, borrowings, loans, debts, interest, fees, costs, expenses
(including, without limitation, legal fees

                                      54

<PAGE>

and expenses of counsel), indemnities and liabilities of whatsoever nature
now or hereafter made, incurred or created, whether absolute or contingent,
liquidated or unliquidated, whether due or not due, arising under or in
connection with this Agreement, including those arising under successive
borrowing transactions under this Agreement which shall either continue such
obligations of the Partnership or from time to time renew them after they
have been satisfied; and

                    (b) those expenses set forth in Section 8.07 hereof.

This Article VIII, as it may be amended, amended and restated, supplemented
or otherwise modified from time to time, is sometimes referred to herein as
the "Guaranty" or this "Guaranty".

                    Section 8.02     Liability of the Guarantor.
                                     --------------------------
                                     The Guarantor agrees that its
obligations hereunder are irrevocable, absolute, independent and
unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance which constitutes
a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or surety other than
indefeasible payment in full of the Guarantied Obligations.  In furtherance
of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the Guarantor
agrees as follows:

                    (a) This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment when due and
not of collectibility.

                    (b) The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder are
independent of the obligations of the Partnership hereunder and the
obligations of any other guarantor of the obligations of the Partnership
hereunder, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted
against the Guarantor whether or not any action is brought against the
Partnership or any of such other guarantors and whether or not the
Partnership is joined in any such action or actions.

                    (c) The Guarantor's payment of a portion, but not all, of
the Guarantied Obligations shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge
the Guarantor's liability for any portion of the Guarantied Obligations which
has not been paid.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if
Agent is awarded a judgment in any suit brought to enforce the Guarantor's
covenant to pay a portion of the Guarantied Obligations, such judgment shall
not be deemed to release the Guarantor from its covenant to pay the portion
of the Guarantied Obligations that is not the subject of such suit.

                    (d) The Agent or any Lender, upon such terms as it deems
appropriate, without notice or demand and without affecting the validity or
enforceability of this Guaranty or giving rise to any reduction, limitation,
impairment, discharge or termination of the Guarantor's liability hereunder,
from time to time may (i) renew, extend (whether pursuant to Section 2.16 or
otherwise), accelerate (in accordance with the terms of this Agreement),
increase the rate of interest on, or otherwise change the time, place, manner
or terms of payment of the Guarantied Obligations, (ii) settle, compromise,
release or discharge, or accept or refuse any offer of performance with
respect to, or substitutions for, the Guarantied Obligations or any agreement
relating thereto and/or subordinate the payment of the same to the payment of
any other obligations; (iii) request and accept other guaranties of the
Guarantied Obligations and take and hold security for the payment of this
Guaranty or the Guarantied Obligations; (iv) release, surrender, exchange,
substitute, compromise, settle, rescind, waive, alter, subordinate or modify,

                                      55

<PAGE>

with or without consideration, any security for payment of the Guarantied
Obligations, any other guaranties of the Guarantied Obligations, or any other
obligation of any Person with respect to the Guarantied Obligations; (v)
enforce and apply any security now or hereafter held by or for the benefit of
Agent or any Lender in respect of this Guaranty or the Guarantied Obligations
and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, or exercise any other right
or remedy that Agent or Lenders, or any of them, may have against any such
security, as Agent in its discretion may determine consistent with this
Agreement and any applicable security agreement, including foreclosure on any
such security pursuant to one or more judicial or non-judicial sales, whether
or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable, and even
though such action operates to impair or extinguish any right of
reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of the Guarantor
against the Partnership or any security for the Guarantied Obligations; and
(vi) exercise any other rights available to it hereunder.

                    (e) This Guaranty and the obligations of the Guarantor
hereunder shall be valid and enforceable and shall not be subject to any
reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination for any reason
(other than indefeasible payment in full of the Guarantied Obligations),
including without limitation the occurrence of any of the following, whether
or not the Guarantor shall have had notice or knowledge of any of them:  (i)
any failure or omission to assert or enforce or agreement or election not to
assert or enforce, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation
of law or otherwise, of the exercise or enforcement of, any claim or demand
or any right, power or remedy (whether arising hereunder, at law, in equity
or otherwise) with respect to the Guarantied Obligations or any agreement
relating thereto, or with respect to any other guaranty of or security for
the payment of the Guarantied Obligations; (ii) any rescission, waiver,
amendment or modification of, or any consent to departure from, any of the
terms or provisions (including without limitation provisions relating to
events of default) of this Agreement, or any agreement or instrument executed
pursuant thereto, or of any other guaranty or security for the Guarantied
Obligations, in each case whether or not in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement or any agreement relating to such other guaranty or security; (iii)
the Guarantied Obligations, or any agreement relating thereto, at any time
being found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect; (iv) the
application of payments received from any source (other than payments
received from the proceeds of any security for the Guarantied Obligations,
except to the extent such security also serves as collateral for indebtedness
other than the Guarantied Obligations) to the payment of indebtedness other
than the Guarantied Obligations, even though Agent or Lenders, or any of
them, might have elected to apply such payment to any part or all of the
Guarantied Obligations; (v) any Lender's or Agent's consent to the change,
reorganization or termination of the corporate or partnership structure or
existence of the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries and to any
corresponding restructuring of the Guarantied Obligations; (vi) any failure
to perfect or continue perfection of a security interest in any collateral
which secures any of the Guarantied Obligations; (vii) any defenses which the
Partnership may allege or assert against Agent or any Lender in respect of
the Guarantied Obligations, including but not limited to statute of frauds,
statute of limitations, and usury; and (viii) any other act or thing or
omission, or delay to do any other act or thing, which may or might in any
manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Guarantor as an obligor in
respect of the Guarantied Obligations.

Person, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from the
Partnership, any other guarantor of the Guarantied Obligations or any other
Person, (iii) proceed against or have resort to any balance of any deposit
account or credit on the books of Agent or any Lender in favor of the
Partnership or any other Person, or (iv) pursue any other remedy in the power
of Agent or any Lender whatsoever;

                    (b) any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack
of authority or any disability or other defense of the Partnership including,
without limitation, any defense based on or arising out of the lack of
validity or the unenforceability of the Guarantied Obligations or any
agreement or instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the
liability of the Partnership from any cause other than indefeasible payment
in full of the Guarantied Obligations;

                    (c) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law
which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in
amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal;

                    (d) (i) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or
otherwise, which are or might be in conflict with the terms of this Guaranty
and any legal or equitable discharge of the Guarantor's obligations
hereunder, (ii) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting the
Guarantor's liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof, and (iii)
promptness, diligence and any requirement that Agent or any Lender protect,
secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien or any property

                                     ------------------------
                                     The Guarantor hereby agrees, in
furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which
Agent or any other Person may have at law or in equity against the Guarantor
by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Partnership to pay any of the
Guarantied Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at
stated maturity, by required prepayment or declaration of (or, in certain
circumstances, automatic) acceleration, (including amounts that would become
due but for the

                                      57

<PAGE>

operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code,
11 U.S.C. Section 362(a)), the Guarantor will forthwith pay, or cause to be
paid, in cash, to Agent for the benefit of Lenders, an amount equal to the
sum of the unpaid principal amount of all Guarantied Obligations then due as
aforesaid, accrued and unpaid interest on such Guarantied Obligations
(including, without limitation, interest which, but for the filing of a
petition in bankruptcy with respect to the Partnership, would have accrued on
such Guarantied Obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed against the
Partnership for such interest in any such bankruptcy proceeding) and all
other Guarantied Obligations then owed to Agent and/or Lenders as aforesaid.

                    Section 8.05     Subrogation.
                                     -----------
                                     Until the Guarantied Obligations shall
have been indefeasibly paid in full, the Guarantor shall withhold exercise of
(a) any right of subrogation, (b) any right of contribution the Guarantor may
have against any other guarantor of the Guarantied Obligations, (c) any right
to enforce any remedy which Agent or any Lender now has or may hereafter have
against the Partnership or (d) any benefit of, and any right to participate
in, any security now or hereafter held by Agent or any Lender.  The Guarantor
further agrees that, to the extent that its agreement to defer exercising any
of its rights of subrogation and contribution as set forth herein is found by
a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any
rights of subrogation the Guarantor may have against the Partnership or
against any collateral or security, and any rights of contribution the
Guarantor may have against any other guarantor, shall be junior and
subordinate to any rights Agent or Lenders may have against the Partnership,
to all right, title and interest Agent or Lenders may have in any such
collateral or security, and to any right Agent or Lenders may have against
such other guarantor.  Agent, on behalf of Lenders, may use, sell or dispose
of any item of collateral or security as it sees fit without regard to any
subrogation rights the Guarantor may have, and upon any such disposition or
sale any rights of subrogation the Guarantor may have shall terminate.  If
any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor on account of such subrogation
rights at any time when all Guarantied Obligations shall not have been paid
in full, such amount shall be held in trust for Agent on behalf of Lenders
and shall forthwith be paid over to Agent for the benefit of Lenders to be
credited and applied against the Guarantied Obligations in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement or any applicable security agreement.

                    Section 8.06     Subordination of Other Obligations.
                                     ----------------------------------
                                     Any indebtedness of the Partnership or
any Subsidiary of the Partnership now or hereafter held by the Guarantor is
hereby subordinated in right of payment to the Guarantied Obligations, and
any such indebtedness of the Partnership or any Subsidiary of the Partnership
to the Guarantor collected or received by the Guarantor after an Event of
Default resulting from a payment default has occurred and is continuing or
after an acceleration of the Guarantied Obligations shall be held in trust
for Agent on behalf of Lenders and shall forthwith be paid over to Agent for
the benefit of Lenders to be credited and applied against the Guarantied
Obligations but without affecting, impairing or limiting in any manner the
liability of the Guarantor under any other provision of this Guaranty.

                    Section 8.07     Expenses.
                                     --------
                                     The Guarantor agrees to pay, or cause to
be paid, and to save Agent and Lenders harmless against liability for, any
and all reasonable costs and out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and
disbursements of counsel) incurred or expended by

                                      58

Agent or any Lender in connection with the enforcement of or preservation of
any rights under this Guaranty.

                                     -----------------------------------
                                     Guaranty.
                                     ---------
                                     This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty
and shall remain in effect until all of the Guarantied Obligations shall have
been indefeasibly paid in full and the Commitments of all Lenders shall have
terminated.

                    Section 8.09     Authority of the Guarantor or the
                                     ---------------------------------
                                     Partnership.
                                     -----------
                                     It is not necessary for Lenders or Agent
to inquire into the capacity or powers of the Guarantor or the Partnership or
the officers, directors or any agents acting or purporting to act on behalf
of any of them.

                    Section 8.10     Financial Condition of the Partnership.
                                     --------------------------------------
                                     Any Advances may be granted to the
Partnership or continued from time to time without notice to or authorization
from Guarantor regardless of the financial or other condition of the
Partnership at the time of any such grant or continuation.  Lenders and Agent
shall have no obligation to disclose or discuss with the Guarantor their
assessment, or the Guarantor's assessment, of the financial condition of the
Partnership.  The Guarantor has adequate means to obtain information from the
Partnership on a continuing basis concerning the financial condition of the
Partnership and its ability to perform its obligations hereunder, and the
Guarantor assumes the responsibility for being and keeping informed of the
financial condition of the Partnership and of all circumstances bearing upon
the risk of nonpayment of the Guarantied Obligations.  The Guarantor hereby
waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of Agent or any Lender to
disclose any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, operations or
conditions of the Partnership now known or hereafter known by Agent or any
Lender.

                    Section 8.11     Rights Cumulative.
                                     -----------------
                                     The rights, powers and remedies given to
Lenders and Agent by this Guaranty are cumulative and shall be in addition to
and independent of all rights, powers and remedies given to Lenders and Agent
by virtue of any statute or rule of law or under this Agreement or any
agreement between the Corporation and Lenders and/or Agent or between the
Partnership and Lenders and/or Agent.  Any forbearance or failure to
exercise, and any delay by any Lender or Agent in exercising, any right,
power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such right, power or remedy or
be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it preclude the further
exercise of any such right, power or remedy.

                    Section 8.12     Bankruptcy; Post-Petition Interest;
                                     -----------------------------------
                                     Reinstatement of the Guaranty.
                                     -----------------------------

                    (a) So long as any Guarantied Obligations remain
outstanding, the Guarantor shall not, without the prior written consent of
Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, commence or join with
any other Person in commencing any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency
proceedings of or against the Partnership.  The obligations of the Guarantor
under this Guaranty shall not be reduced, limited, impaired, discharged,
deferred, suspended or terminated by any proceeding, voluntary or
involuntary, involving the bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership,
reorganization, liquidation or arrangement of the Partnership or by any

                                      59

<PAGE>

defense which the Partnership may have by reason of the order, decree or
decision of any court or administrative body resulting from any such
proceeding.

                    (b) The Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that any
interest on any portion of the Guarantied Obligations which accrues after the
commencement of any proceeding referred to in clause (a) above (or, if
interest on any portion of the Guarantied Obligations ceases to accrue by
operation of law by reason of the commencement of said proceeding, such
interest as would have accrued on such portion of the Guarantied Obligations
if said proceedings had not been commenced) shall be included in the
Guarantied Obligations because it is the intention of the Guarantor and Agent
that the Guarantied Obligations which are guarantied by the Guarantor
pursuant to this Guaranty should be determined without regard to any rule of
bankruptcy or other similar laws or which may relieve the Partnership of any
portion of such Guarantied Obligations.  The Guarantor will permit any
trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, debtor in possession, assignee for the
benefit of creditors or similar person to pay Agent, or allow the claim of
Agent in respect of, any such interest accruing after the date on which such
proceeding is commenced.

                    (c) In the event that all or any portion of the
Guarantied Obligations are paid by the Partnership, the obligations of the
Guarantor hereunder shall continue and remain in full force and effect or be
reinstated, as the case may be, in the event that all or any part of such
payment(s) are rescinded or recovered directly or indirectly from Agent or
any Lender as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, and any such
payments which are so rescinded or recovered shall constitute Guarantied
Obligations for all purposes under this Guaranty.

                    Section 8.13     Notice of Events.
                                     ----------------
                                     As soon as the Guarantor obtains
knowledge thereof, the Guarantor shall give Agent written notice of any
condition or event which has resulted or might reasonably be expected to
result in (a) a material adverse change in the financial condition of the
Guarantor or the Partnership, or (b) a breach of or noncompliance with any
term, condition or covenant contained in this Agreement or in any document
delivered pursuant hereto, or (c) a material breach of, or material
noncompliance with, any material term, condition or covenant of any material
contract to which the Guarantor or the Partnership is a party or by which the
Guarantor or the Partnership or the Guarantor's or the Partnership's property
may be bound, or (d) the Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries being suspended
or debarred by any governmental entity from entering into any government
contract or government subcontract, from otherwise engaging in any business
relating to government contracts or from participation in government non-
procurement programs, if such suspension or debarment may have a material
adverse effect on the business, condition (financial or otherwise),
operations or properties of the Guarantor and its Subsidiaries, taken as a
whole.

                    Section 8.14     Set Off.
                                     -------
                                     In addition to any other rights any
Lender may have under law or in equity, if any amount shall at any time be
due and owing by the Guarantor to any Lender under this Guaranty, such Lender
is authorized at any time or from time to time, without notice (any such
notice being hereby expressly waived), to set off and to appropriate and to
apply any and all deposits (including but not limited to indebtedness
evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, time or
demand deposits, provisional or final deposits, or general deposits but not
special deposits) and any other indebtedness of such Lender or any Affiliate
thereof owing to the Guarantor and any other property of the Guarantor held
by such

                                      60

<PAGE>

Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Guarantor against and on
account of the Guarantied Obligations and liabilities of Guarantor to such
Lender under this Guaranty, and each such Affiliate is hereby irrevocably
authorized to permit such setoff and application.

                    Section 8.15     Determination of the Guarantied
                                     -------------------------------
                                     Obligations.
                                     -----------
                                     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Guaranty, the determination of the amount and terms of
repayment of the Guarantied Obligations under this Guaranty shall be
consistent with such determination pursuant to this Agreement (without giving
effect to the effect upon such determination of the Bankruptcy Code) with the
result that the liability of the Guarantor under this Guaranty will not
exceed the liability which the Guarantor would have had if it had been the
Partnership under this Agreement (plus any amounts payable pursuant to
Section 8.07 hereof); provided however that the Guarantor's agreements and
                      -------- -------
waivers set forth herein with respect to suretyship defenses (including,
without limitation, defenses based on lack of authority of the Partnership or
persons signing on behalf of the Partnership or the illegality, invalidity or
unenforceability of this Agreement against the Partnership) shall be fully
effective, it being understood that the limitation on the Guarantor's
liability set forth above relates only to the determination of the amount and
payment terms of the Guarantied Obligations and does not otherwise limit the
Guarantor's obligations under this Guaranty.

                    Section 8.16     Successors and Assigns.
                                     ----------------------
                                     This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty
and shall be binding upon the Guarantor and its successors and assigns.  This
Guaranty shall inure to the benefit of Lenders, Agent and their respective
successors and assigns.  The Guarantor shall not assign this Guaranty or any
of the rights or obligations of the Guarantor hereunder without the prior
written consent of all Lenders.  Any Lender may, without notice or consent,
assign its interest in this Guaranty in whole or in part.  The terms and
provisions of this Guaranty shall inure to the benefit of any assignee or
transferee of any rights and obligations under this Agreement, and in the
event of such transfer or assignment the rights and privileges herein
conferred upon Lenders and Agent shall automatically extend to and be vested
in such transferee or assignee, all subject to the terms and conditions
hereof.

                                     ------------------
                                     At any time or from time to time, upon
the request of Agent or Majority Lenders, the Guarantor shall execute and
deliver such further documents and do such other acts and things as Agent or
Majority Lenders may reasonably request in order to effect fully the purposes
of this Guaranty.

purpose for which given; provided, however, that no amendment, waiver or

                                     -----------------------------------

                    (a) The Partnership and the Corporation jointly and
severally agree to pay promptly on demand all reasonable costs and out-of-
pocket expenses of Agent in connection with the preparation, execution,
delivery, administration, syndication, modification and amendment of this
Agreement, and the other documents to be delivered hereunder or thereunder,
including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses
of counsel for the Agent with respect thereto and with respect to advising
the Agent as to its rights and responsibilities hereunder.  The Partnership
and the Corporation further jointly and severally agree to pay promptly on
demand all costs and expenses of the Agent and of each Lender, if any
(including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and out-of-pocket
expenses), in connection with the enforcement (whether through negotiations,
legal proceedings or otherwise) of this Agreement and the other documents to
be delivered hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable counsel
fees and out-of-pocket expenses in connection with the enforcement of rights
under this Section 9.04(a).

                    (b) If any payment of principal of any Eurodollar Rate
Advance or B Advance extended to either Borrower is made other than on the
last day of the interest period for such Advance, as a result of a payment
pursuant to Section 2.06 or acceleration of the maturity of the Advances
pursuant to Section 6.01 or for any other reason, such Borrower shall, upon
demand by any Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Agent), pay to the
Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such
Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses which it may reasonably
incur as a result of such payment, including, without limitation, any loss,
cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of
deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain such
Advance.

                    (c) The Partnership and the Corporation jointly and
severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent, each Lender and
each director, officer, employee, agent, attorney and affiliate of the Agent
and each Lender (each an "indemnified person") in connection with any
expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Agent, a Lender
or such indemnified persons may become subject, insofar as such expenses,
losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or other proceedings
commenced or threatened in respect thereof) arise out of the transactions
referred to in this Agreement or arise from any use or intended use of the
proceeds of the Advances, or in any way arise out of activities of the
Borrowers or the Guarantor that violate Environmental Laws, and to reimburse
the Agent, each Lender and each indemnified person, upon their demand, for
any reasonable legal or other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection
with investigating, defending or participating in any such loss, claim,
damage, liability, or action or other proceeding, whether commenced or
threatened (whether or not the Agent, such Lender or any such person is a
party to any action or proceeding out of which any such expense arises).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation and the Partnership shall have
no obligation hereunder to an indemnified person with respect to indemnified
liabilities which have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or
willful misconduct of such indemnified person.

Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III.

          (d)  Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior
to the date of any A Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the
Agent such Lender's ratable portion of such A Borrowing, the Agent may assume
that such Lender has made such portion available to the Agent on the date of
such A Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and
the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the
Borrower requesting the proposed A Borrowing on such date a corresponding
amount.  If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such
ratable portion available to the Agent, such Lender and such Borrower
severally agree to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding
amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount
is

                                      14

<PAGE>

made available to such Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the
Agent, at (i) in the case of such Borrower, the interest rate applicable at
the time to A Advances comprising such A Borrowing and (ii) in the case of
such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate.  If such Lender shall repay to the Agent
such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such
Lender's A Advance as part of such A Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.
(e) The failure of any Lender to make the A Advance to be made by it as part
of any A Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if
any, hereunder to make its A Advance on the date of such A Borrowing, but no
Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the A
Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any A Borrowing.

     Section 2.03     The B Advances.
                      --------------
                      (a) Each Lender severally agrees that either Borrower
may make B Borrowings under this Section 2.03 from time to time on any
Business Day during the period from the date hereof until the date occurring
30 days prior to the latest Commitment Termination Date of any Lender then in
effect in the manner set forth below; provided that, (i) following the making
of each B Borrowing, (1) the aggregate amount of the Advances then outstanding
to both Borrowers shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the Commitments of
the Lenders then in effect (computed without regard to any B Reduction), and
(2) the aggregate amount of the B Advances scheduled to be outstanding to both
Borrowers at any time through the maturity of such B Advances shall not exceed
the aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Lenders scheduled to be in
effect at such time (computed without regard to any B Reduction), and (ii) no
Lender may make a B Advance if the maturity date of such B Advance occurs
after the Commitment Termination Date of such Lender.

               (i)     Either Borrower may request a B Borrowing under this
Section 2.03 by delivering to the Agent, by telecopier, telex or cable,
confirmed immediately in writing, a notice of a B Borrowing (a "Notice of B
Borrowing"), in substantially the form of Exhibit A-2 hereto, specifying the
date and aggregate amount of the proposed B Borrowing, the maturity date for
repayment of each B Advance to be made as part of such B Borrowing (which
maturity date (x) in the case of a fixed rate B Borrowing may not be earlier
than the date occurring 14 days after the date of such B Borrowing or later
than the date occurring 180 days after the date of such B Borrowing, and (y)
in the case of any other B Borrowing may not be earlier than the date
occurring 30 days after the date of such B Borrowing or later than the date
occurring 180 days after the date of such B Borrowing), the interest payment
date or dates relating thereto, and any other terms to be applicable to such B
Borrowing, not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) (A) at least one
Business Day prior to the date of the proposed B Borrowing, if such Borrower
shall specify in the Notice of B Borrowing that the rates of interest to be
offered by the Lenders shall be fixed rates per annum and (B) at least four
Business Days prior to the date of the proposed B Borrowing, if such Borrower
shall instead specify in the Notice of B Borrowing the basis to be used by the
Lenders in determining the rates of interest to be offered by them.  A
Borrower may not select a maturity date for any B Borrowing which ends after
the latest Commitment Termination Date of any Lender then in effect.  The
Agent shall in turn promptly notify each Lender of each request for a B
Borrowing

                                      15

<PAGE>

received by it from a Borrower by sending such Lender a copy of the related
Notice of B Borrowing.

               (ii)    Each Lender may, if, in its sole discretion, it elects
to do so, irrevocably offer to make one or more B Advances to such Borrower as
part of such proposed B Borrowing at a rate or rates of interest specified by
such Lender in its sole discretion, by notifying the Agent (which shall give
prompt notice thereof to such Borrower), before 11:00 A.M. (New York City
time) (A) on the date of such proposed B Borrowing, in the case of a Notice of
B Borrowing delivered pursuant to clause (A) of paragraph (i) above and (B)
three Business Days before the date of such proposed B Borrowing, in the case
of a Notice of B Borrowing delivered pursuant to clause (B) of paragraph (i)
above, of the minimum amount and maximum amount of each B Advance which such
Lender would be willing to make as part of such proposed B Borrowing (which
amounts may, subject to the proviso to the first sentence of this Section
2.03(a), exceed such Lender's Commitment), the rate or rates of interest
therefor and such Lender's Applicable Lending Office with respect to such B
Advance; provided that if the Agent in its capacity as a Lender shall, in its
sole discretion, elect to make any such offer, it shall notify such Borrower
of such offer before 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the date on which
notice of such election is to be given to the Agent by the other Lenders.  If
any Lender shall elect not to make such an offer, such Lender shall so notify
the Agent, before 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the date on which notice
of such election is to be given to the Agent by the other Lenders, and such
Lender shall not be obligated to, and shall not, make any B Advance as part of
such B Borrowing; provided that the failure by any Lender to give such notice
shall not cause such Lender to be obligated to make any B Advance as part of
such proposed B Borrowing.

               (iii)   Such Borrower shall, in turn, (A) before 12:00 noon
(New York City time) on the date of such proposed B Borrowing, in the case of
a Notice of B Borrowing delivered pursuant to clause (A) of paragraph (i)
above and (B) before 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) three Business Days before
the date of such proposed B Borrowing, in the case of a Notice of B Borrowing
delivered pursuant to clause (B) of paragraph (i) above, either

          (x)  cancel such B Borrowing by giving the Agent notice to that
effect, or

          (y)  accept one or more of the offers made by any Lender or Lenders
pursuant to paragraph (ii) above (which acceptance shall be irrevocable) in
its sole discretion, by giving notice to the Agent of the amount of each B
Advance (which amount shall be equal to or greater than the minimum amount,
and equal to or less than the maximum amount, notified to such Borrower by the
Agent on behalf of such Lender for such B Advance pursuant to paragraph (ii)
above) to be made by each Lender as part of such B Borrowing (provided that
the aggregate amount of such B Borrowing shall not exceed the amount specified
on the Notice of B Borrowing delivered by such Borrower pursuant to paragraph
(i) above), and reject any remaining offers made by Lenders pursuant to
paragraph (ii) above by giving the Agent notice to that effect; provided that
                                                                --------
acceptance of offers may only be made on the basis of ascending rates for B
Borrowings of the same type and

                                      16

<PAGE>

duration for up to the maximum amounts offered by Lenders; and provided
further that if offers are made by two or more Lenders for the same type of B
Borrowing for the same duration and with the same rate of interest, in an
aggregate amount which is greater than the amount requested, such offers shall
be accepted on a pro rata basis based on the maximum amounts offered by such
Lenders at such rate of interest.

               (iv)    If such Borrower notifies the Agent that such B
Borrowing is cancelled pursuant to paragraph (iii)(x) above or if such
Borrower rejects any offers made by Lenders pursuant to paragraph (iii)(y)
above, the Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders or affected
Lenders, as the case may be, and in the case of a cancellation, such B
Borrowing shall not be made.

               (v)     If such Borrower accepts one or more of the offers made
by any Lender or Lenders pursuant to paragraph (iii)(y) above, the Agent shall
in turn promptly notify (A) each Lender that has made an offer as described in
paragraph (ii) above, of the date and aggregate amount of such B Borrowing and
whether or not any offer or offers made by such Lender pursuant to paragraph
(ii) above have been accepted by such Borrower, (B) each Lender that is to
make a B Advance as part of such B Borrowing, of the amount of each B Advance
to be made by such Lender as part of such B Borrowing, and (C) each Lender
that is to make a B Advance as part of such B Borrowing, upon receipt, that
the Agent has received forms of documents appearing to fulfill the applicable
conditions set forth in Article III.  Each Lender that is to make a B Advance
as part of such B Borrowing shall, before 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on
the date of such B Borrowing specified in the notice received from the Agent
pursuant to clause (A) of the preceding sentence or any later time when such
Lender shall have received notice from the Agent pursuant to clause (C) of the
preceding sentence, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending
Office to the Agent at its address referred to in Section 9.02 such Lender's
portion of such B Borrowing, in same day funds.  Upon fulfillment of the
applicable conditions set forth in Article III and after receipt by the Agent
of such funds, the Agent will make such funds available to such Borrower at
the Agent's aforesaid address.  Promptly after each B Borrowing, the Agent
will notify each Lender of the amount of the B Borrowing, the consequent B
Reduction and the dates upon which such B Reduction commenced and will
terminate.

               (vi)    Each Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the
Agent's account an auction fee in an amount agreed to in a separate letter
agreement between the Borrowers and the Agent for each Notice of B Borrowing
delivered by such Borrower to the Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(a),
whether or not a B Borrowing is made pursuant thereto.

          (b)  Each B Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount not less than
$5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and,
following the making of each B Borrowing, the Borrowers and each Lender shall
be in compliance with the limitations set forth in the proviso to the first
sentence of subsection (a) above.

                                      17

          (c)  Within the limits and on the conditions set forth in this
Section 2.03, either Borrower may from time to time borrow under this Section
2.03, repay or prepay pursuant to subsection (d) below, and reborrow under
this Section 2.03, and more than one B Borrowing may be made on a Business
Day; provided that, except for B Borrowings made on the same Business Day, a
     --------
B Borrowing shall not be made within three Business Days of the date of any
other B Borrowing.

          (d)  Each Borrower shall repay to the Agent for the account of each
Lender which has made a B Advance to such Borrower, on the maturity date of
each B Advance made to such Borrower (such maturity date being that specified
by such Borrower for repayment of such B Advance in the related Notice of B
Borrowing delivered pursuant to subsection (a)(i) above), the then unpaid
principal amount of such B Advance.  Neither Borrower shall have any right to
prepay any principal amount of any B Advance unless, and then only on the
terms, specified by such Borrower for such B Advance in the related Notice of
B Borrowing delivered pursuant to subsection (a)(i) above.

          (e)  Each Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount
of each B Advance made to such Borrower from the date of such B Advance to the
date the principal amount of such B Advance is repaid in full, at the rate of
interest for such B Advance specified by the Lender making such B Advance in
its notice with respect thereto delivered pursuant to subsection (a)(ii)
above, payable on the interest payment date or dates specified by such
Borrower for such B Advance in the related Notice of B Borrowing delivered
pursuant to subsection (a)(i) above; provided that any principal amount of any
                                     --------
B Advance which is not paid when due (whether at stated maturity, by
acceleration or otherwise) shall bear interest from the date on which such
amount is due until such amount is paid in full, payable on demand, at a rate
per annum equal at all times to (A) until the stated maturity date of such B
Advance, the greater of (x) 2% per annum above the Base Rate in effect from
time to time and (y) 2% above the stated rate per annum of such B Advance, and
(B) after the stated maturity of such B Advance, 2% per annum above the Base
Rate in effect from time to time.

          (f)  Subject to the obligations of the Guarantor under the Guaranty,
neither Borrower shall have any obligation to repay to any Lender any B
Advance made by such Lender to the other Borrower or to pay any interest on
any B Advance made by such Lender to the other Borrower.

     Section 2.04     Fees.
                      ----

          (a)  Facility Fees.  The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to
               -------------
pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender a facility fee on the amount
of such Lender's Commitment (or if no Commitment is in effect, Advances),
whether used or unused and without giving effect to any B Reduction, from the
date hereof in the case of each Bank and from the effective date specified in
the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it became a Lender in the case
of each other Lender until the Termination Date of such Lender, payable in
arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December during the
term of such Lender's Commitment, commencing September 30, 2000, and on the
Termination Date of such Lender, in an amount equal to the product of (i) the
average daily amount of such Lender's Commitment (whether used or unused and
without giving effect to any B Reduction) in effect during the period for
which

                                      18

<PAGE>

such payment that is to be made times (ii) the weighted average rate per annum
that is derived from the following rates: (a) a rate of 0.05% per annum with
respect to each day during such period that the higher of the Ratings was
Level 1, (b) a rate of 0.08% per annum with respect to each day during such
period that the higher of such Ratings was Level 2, (c) a rate of 0.10% per
annum with respect to each day during such period that the higher of such
Ratings was Level 3 and (d) a rate of 0.125% per annum with respect to each
day during such period that the higher of such Ratings was Level 4.  If any
change in the Rating shall result in a change in the Level, the change in the
facility fee shall be effective as of the date on which such rating change is
publicly announced (in the case of a public rating) or is disclosed to the
Corporation (in the case of a private rating).  If Ratings are unavailable
from both S&P or Moody's for any reason for any day, then the applicable Level
for purposes of calculating the facility fee for such day shall be deemed to
be Level 4 (or, if the Majority Lenders consent in writing, such other Level
as may be reasonably determined by the Majority Lenders from a rating with
respect to Long-Term Debt or the Corporation for such day established by
another rating agency reasonably acceptable to the Majority Lenders).  If no
Rating is available from S&P or Moody's (but not both) for any reason for any
day, then the applicable Level shall be set by reference to the Rating of S&P
or Moody's that is available for such day.

          (b)  Agents' Fees.  The Borrowers agree to pay to the Agent the fees

Commitments of the Lenders shall immediately terminate.

          (b)  Optional Reductions.  The Borrowers shall have the right, upon

at least four Business Days' notice to the Agent by both Borrowers, to

respective Commitments of the Lenders, provided that the aggregate amount of
                                       --------
the Commitments of the Lenders shall not be reduced to an amount which is less
than the aggregate principal amount of the Advances then outstanding, and

constitute a majority of the Partnership's Partnership Committee (or similar
body which may replace

                                      19

<PAGE>

such Partnership Committee) or the rights and powers of such Partnership
Committee shall be materially diminished in a manner such that the
Partnership's Partnership Committee (or similar body which may replace such
Partnership Committee) shall cease to have substantially the same ability to
control the operations or policies of the Partnership as it has on the date
hereof; or

               (ii)    CSC Enterprises, Inc. shall cease to be the Managing
Partner (unless the successor Managing Partner is a Subsidiary of the

Partnership will pay interest accrued to the date of prepayment and will
reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 9.04(b).

          (c)  Mandatory Prepayment Due to Reductions of Commitments.  Each

Eurodollar Rate Advance being prepaid and shall be obligated to reimburse the
Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 9.04(b).

          (e)  Certain Obligations Several.  Subject to the obligations of the
               ---------------------------
Guarantor under the Guaranty, neither Borrower shall have any obligation to
repay to any Lender any A Advance made by such Lender to the other Borrower or
to pay any interest on any A Advance made by such Lender to the other
Borrower.

          (f)  Payment of Term Loan.  The Borrowers shall repay the Term Loans
               --------------------

                                                          --------  -------
that any Conversion of any Eurodollar Rate Advances into A Advances of another
Type shall be made on, and only on, the last day of an Interest Period for
such Eurodollar Rate Advances.  Each such Notice of Conversion/Continuation
shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such
continuation or Conversion, (ii) the A Advances (or, subject to Section
2.02(b), any portion thereof) to be continued or Converted, (iii) if such
continuation is of, or such Conversion is into, Eurodollar Rate Advances, the
duration of the Interest Period for each such A Advance and (iv) that no
Potential Event of Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
(b) If upon the expiration of the then existing Interest Period applicable to
any A Advance which is a Eurodollar Rate Advance made to either Borrower, such
Borrower shall not have delivered a Notice of Conversion/Continuation in
accordance with this Section 2.09, then such Advance shall upon such
expiration automatically be Converted to a Base Rate Advance.

          (c)  After the occurrence of and during the continuance of a
Potential Event of Default or an Event of Default, a Borrower may not elect to
have an A Advance be made or continued as, or Converted into, a Eurodollar
Rate Advance after the expiration of any Interest Rate then in effect for that
A Advance.

     Section 2.10     Increased Costs.
                      ---------------

          (a)  If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change (other
than any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve requirements in
the case of Eurodollar Rate Advances included in the Eurodollar Rate Reserve
Percentage) in or in the interpretation of any

                                      22

<PAGE>

law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from
any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the
force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender of
agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Eurodollar Rate Advances
made to either Borrower, then such Borrower shall from time to time, upon
demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Agent), pay to the
Agent for the account of such Lender additional amounts sufficient to
compensate such Lender for such increased cost.  A reasonably detailed
certificate as to the amount and manner of calculation of such increased cost,
submitted to such Borrower and the Agent by such Lender, shall be conclusive
and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

          (b)  If any Lender determines that compliance with any law or
regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other
governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or
would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by
such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender and that the amount of
such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender's
commitment to lend hereunder and other commitments of this type, then, upon
demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Agent), the Borrowers
shall immediately pay, jointly and severally, to the Agent for the account of
such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts
sufficient to compensate such Lender or such corporation in the light of such
circumstances, to the extent that such Lender reasonably determines such
increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such Lender's
commitment to lend hereunder.  A reasonably detailed certificate as to such
amounts and the manner of calculation thereof submitted to the Borrowers and
the Agent by such Lender shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes,
absent manifest error.

          (c)  If a Lender shall change its Applicable Lending Office, such
Lender shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections
2.10 and 2.12 than the amount such Lender would have been entitled to receive
if it had not changed its Applicable Lending Office, unless such change was
made at the request of a Borrower or at a time when the circumstances giving
rise to such greater payment did not exist.

     Section 2.11     Payments and Computations.
                      -------------------------

          (a)  Each Borrower shall make each payment hereunder not later than
1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the day when due in U.S. dollars to the
Agent at its address referred to in Section 9.02 in same day funds.  Subject
to the immediately succeeding sentence, the Agent will promptly thereafter
cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or
interest or facility fees ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to
Section 2.03, 2.10 or 2.12 or, to the extent the Termination Date is not the
same for all Lenders, pursuant to Section 2.06(a)) to the Lenders for the
account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds
relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such
Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be
applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  Upon receipt of
principal or interest paid after an Event of Default and an acceleration or a
deemed acceleration of amounts due hereunder, the Agent will promptly
thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of
principal or interest ratably in accordance with each Lender's outstanding A
Advances and B Advances (other than amounts

                                      23

<PAGE>

payable pursuant to Section 2.10 or 2.12) to the Lenders for the account of
their respective Applicable Lending Offices.  Upon its acceptance of an
Assignment and Acceptance and recording of the information contained therein
in the Register pursuant to Section 9.07(d), from and after the effective date
specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, the Agent shall make all payments
hereunder in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee
thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance shall make all
appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective
date directly between themselves.

          (b)  All computations of interest based on the Base Rate shall be
made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may
be, and all computations of interest based on the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate or
the Federal Funds Rate and of facility fees shall be made by the Agent on the
basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days
(including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period
for which such interest or such fees are payable.  Each determination by the
Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all
purposes, absent manifest error.

         (c)  Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a
day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next
succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be
included in the computation of payment of interest or facility fee, as the
case may be; provided, however, if such extension would cause payment of
             --------  -------
interest on or principal of Eurodollar Rate Advances to be made in the next
following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding
Business Day.

          (d)  Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower
prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders hereunder that
such Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Agent may assume that
such Borrower has made such payment in full to the Agent on such date and the
Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each
Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender.
If and to the extent that such Borrower shall not have so made such payment in
full to the Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Agent forthwith on demand
such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for
each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the
date such Lender repays such amount to the Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate.

     Section 2.12     Taxes.
                      -----

               (a)  Any and all payments by a Borrower hereunder shall be
made, in accordance with Section 2.11, free and clear of and without deduction
for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges
or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the
                                                           ---------
case of each Lender and the Agent, (i) taxes imposed on its income, and
franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which
such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) is organized or any political
subdivision thereof or in which its principal office is located, (ii) taxes
imposed on its income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction
of such Lender's Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision
thereof, (iii) taxes imposed upon or measured by the overall net income of
such Lender by the United States of America or any political subdivision or
taxing authority thereof or therein, and (iv)

                                      24

<PAGE>

United States income taxes (including withholding taxes with respect to
payments hereunder) payable with respect to payments hereunder under laws
(including without limitation any statute, treaty, ruling, determination or
regulation) in effect on the date hereof in the case of each Bank and on the
effective date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it became a
Lender in the case of each other Lender (all such non-excluded taxes, levies,
imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter
referred to as "Taxes").  If a Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any
Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender or the
Agent, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that
after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to
additional sums payable under this Section 2.12) such Lender or the Agent (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 pay the full amount deducted to the
relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable
law.

          (b)  In addition, the Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay
any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or
property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from the execution,
delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement
(hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes").

          (c)  Each Borrower will indemnify each Lender and the Agent for the
full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (to the extent specifically attributable
to Borrowings made by such Borrower) (including, without limitation, any Taxes
or Other Taxes (to the extent specifically attributable to Borrowings made by
such Borrower) imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this
Section 2.12) and the Borrowers jointly and severally will indemnify each
Lender and the Agent for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (to the
extent not specifically attributable to Borrowings made by a particular
Borrower) (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes (to the
extent not specifically attributable to Borrowings made by a particular
Borrower) imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section
2.12), in each case paid by such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) and
any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom
or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were
correctly or legally asserted.  This indemnification shall be made within 30
days from the date such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) makes written
demand therefor.

          (d)  Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the
Borrowers, or either of them, will furnish to the Agent, at its address
referred to in Section 9.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt
evidencing payment thereof.

          (e)  Each Lender organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside
the United States, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of
this Agreement in the case of each Bank and on the date of the Assignment and
Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other
Lender, and from time to time thereafter if requested in writing by either
Borrower (but only so long as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so),
shall provide such Borrower with Internal Revenue Service form W-8BEN or W-
8ECI, as appropriate, or any successor form prescribed by the Internal Revenue
Service, to establish that such Lender is not subject to United States
withholding tax with respect to any payments to such Lender of interest
payable under this Agreement.  If the form provided by a Lender at the time
such Lender first

                                      25

<PAGE>

becomes a party to this Agreement indicates a United States interest
withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be
considered excluded from "Taxes" as defined in Section 2.12(a).

          (f)  For any period with respect to which a Lender has failed to
provide a Borrower with the appropriate form described in Section 2.12(e)
(other than if such failure is due to a change in law occurring subsequent to
the date on which a form originally was required to be provided, or if such
form otherwise is not required under the first sentence of subsection (e)
above), such Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under Section
2.12(a) with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States; provided, however,
that should a Lender become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver
a form required hereunder, such Borrower shall, at the expense of such Lender,
take such steps as the Lender shall reasonably request to assist the Lender to
recover such Taxes.

          (g)  Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the
Borrowers hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrowers contained
in this Section 2.12 shall survive the payment in full of principal and
interest hereunder.

     Section 2.13     Sharing of Payments, Etc.
                      ------------------------
                      If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether
voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or
otherwise) on account of the A Advances made by it (other than pursuant to
Section 2.10 or 2.12 or, to the extent the Termination Date is not the same
for all Lenders, pursuant to Section 2.06(a)) in excess of its ratable share
of payments on account of the A Advances obtained by all the Lenders, such
Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in
the A Advances made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing
Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them, provided,
                                                              --------
however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter
-------
recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be
rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase
price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such
Lender's ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such
Lender's required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the
purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the
purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered.  The Borrowers
agree that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender
pursuant to this Section 2.13 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with
respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct
creditor of the applicable Borrower in the amount of such participation.

     Section 2.14     Evidence of Debt.
                      ----------------

          (a)  Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual
practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower
to such Lender resulting from each Advance owing to such Lender from time to
time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such
Lender from time to time hereunder.  Each Borrower agrees that upon notice by
any Lender to such Borrower (with a copy of such notice to the Agent) to the
effect that a promissory note or other evidence of indebtedness is required or
appropriate in order for such Lender to evidence (whether for purposes of
pledge, enforcement or otherwise) the A Advances or the B Advances owing to,
or to be made by, such Lender, such Borrower shall

                                      27

<PAGE>

promptly execute and deliver to such Lender promissory notes or other evidence
of such indebtedness, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such
Borrower and such Lender, payable to the order of such Lender in a principal
amount equal, in the case of the A Advances, to the aggregate principal amount
of the Commitment of such Lender and, in the case of the B Advances, to the
outstanding principal amount of B Advances of such Lender; provided, however,
                                                           --------  -------
that the execution and delivery of such promissory note or other evidence of
indebtedness shall not be a condition precedent to the making of any Advance
under this Agreement.

          (b)  The Register maintained by the Agent pursuant to Section 9.07(c)
shall include a control account, and a subsidiary account for each Lender, in
which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the date, amount and
tenor, as applicable, of each Borrowing, the Borrower that received the
proceeds of such Borrowing, the Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing and
the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the terms of each Assignment and
Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it, (iii) the amount of any principal
or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to
each Lender hereunder, and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Agent
from each Borrower hereunder and each Lender's share thereof.

          (c)  The entries made in the Register shall be conclusive and
binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

     Section 2.15     Use of Proceeds.
                      ---------------

          (a)  Advances shall be used by the Borrowers for Commercial Paper
backup, for Non-Hostile Acquisitions and for general corporate purposes.

          (b)  No portion of the proceeds of any Advances under this Agreement
shall be used by either Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in any manner
which might cause the Advances or the application of such proceeds to violate,
or require any Lender to make any filing or take any other action under,
Regulation T, Regulation U or Regulation X of the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System or any other regulation of such Board or to violate the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, in each case as in effect on the date or
dates of such Advances and such use of proceeds.

     Section 2.16     Extension of the Commitment Termination Date.
                      --------------------------------------------
                      The Borrowers may, not earlier than 45 days but not
later than 30 days prior to the then current Commitment Termination Date (the
"Current Termination Date"), propose to extend the Commitment Termination Date
for all Lenders for an additional 364 days by delivering to the Agent a copy
of an extension request signed by both Borrowers (an "Extension Request") in
substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto.  The Agent shall promptly notify
each Lender of its receipt of such Extension Request.  Not earlier than 30
days but not later than 15 days (the "Determination Date") prior to the
Current Termination Date, each Lender shall notify the Agent and the Borrowers
of its willingness or unwillingness to extend its Commitment Termination Date
hereunder.  Any Lender that shall fail to so notify the Agent and the
Borrowers on or prior to the Determination Date shall be deemed to have
declined to so extend.  In the event that, on or prior to the Determination
Date, Lenders representing more than 50% of the aggregate amount of

                                      28

<PAGE>

the Commitments of all Lenders then in effect shall consent to such extension,
the Agent shall so advise the Lenders and the Borrowers, and, subject to
execution of documentation evidencing such extension and consents, the
Commitment Termination Date of each Lender (each a "Consenting Lender") that
has consented on or prior to the Determination Date to so extend shall be
extended by 364 days.  Thereafter, (i) for each Consenting Lender, the term
"Commitment Termination Date" as used herein and in any promissory note
executed and delivered by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.14 hereof, shall
at all times refer to such date, unless it is later extended pursuant to this
Section 2.16, and (ii) for each Lender that either has declined on or prior to
the Determination Date to so extend or is deemed to have so declined, the term
"Commitment Termination Date" shall at all times refer to the date which was
the Commitment Termination Date of such Lender immediately prior to the
delivery to the Agent of such Extension Request.  In the event that, as of the
Determination Date, the Consenting Lenders represent 50% or less of the
aggregate amount of the Commitments of all Lenders then in effect, the Agent
shall so advise the Lenders and the Borrowers, and none of the Lenders'
Commitment Termination Dates shall be extended and each Lender's Commitment
Termination Date shall continue to be the date which was the Commitment
Termination Date of such Lender immediately prior to the delivery to the Agent
of such Extension Request.

     Section 2.17     Substitution of Lenders.
                      -----------------------
                      If any Lender requests compensation from a Borrower
under Section 2.10(a) or (b) or if any Lender declines to extend its
Commitment Termination Date pursuant to Section 2.16, the Borrowers shall have
the right, with the assistance of the Agent, to seek one or more substitute
banks or financial institutions (which may be one or more of the Lenders)
reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and the Borrowers to purchase the
Advances and assume the Commitments of such Lender, and the Borrowers, the
Agent, such Lender, and such substitute banks or financial institutions shall
execute and deliver an appropriately completed Assignment and Acceptance
pursuant to Section 9.07(a) hereof to effect the assignment of rights to and
the assumption of obligations by such substitute banks or financial
institutions; provided that such requesting Lender shall be entitled to
              --------
(i) compensation under Section 2.10 for any costs incurred by it prior to its
replacement, (ii) payment of all A Advances of such Lender then outstanding
and all interest and fees accrued to the date of such payment, and (iii) if
any Eurodollar Rate Advances of such Lender are then outstanding, any
reimbursement which would be payable under Section 9.04(b) in connection with
a prepayment of such Eurodollar Rate Advances on such date.

     Section 2.18     Increased Commitments; Additional Lenders.
                      -----------------------------------------

          (a)  No more than once per 364 day period from the Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement Effective Date, the Borrowers may, upon at least
thirty (30) days notice to the Agent (which shall promptly provide a copy of
such notice to the Lenders), propose to increase the aggregate amount of the
Commitments in increments of $25,000,000, the total  amount of all such
increases not to exceed $250,000,000 (the amount of any such increase, the
"Increased Commitments"); provided that at the time of and after giving effect
                          --------
to any increase in the Commitments (and the delivery of the applicable
commitment increase notice shall constitute a representation and warranty by
the Partnership and the Corporation that on the effective date of such
increase such statements are true) (i) the Corporation's Long-Term Debt
ratings from Moody's and S&P are better than or equal to Baa2 or BBB,
respectively; (ii) the representations

                                      28

<PAGE>

and warranties  of the Partnership and the Corporation contained in Article IV
are correct on and as of the date of such increase, before and after giving
effect to such increase, as though made on and as of such date, except to the
extent that any such representation or warranty expressly relates only to an
earlier date, in which case they were correct as of such earlier date; (iii)
no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default exists and is continuing ;
(iv) on the date of such increase, (x) there shall be no A Advances
outstanding or all Interest Periods shall have ended and (y) all accrued and
unpaid interest on the A Advances and all accrued and unpaid Facility Fees
shall have been paid in full and (v) after any such increase, no Lender's
Commitment shall exceed 50% of the aggregate amount of the Commitments.  Each
Lender party to this Agreement at such time shall have the right (but no
obligation), for a period of fifteen (15) days following receipt of such
notice, to elect by notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to
increase its Commitment by a principal amount which bears the same ratio to
the Increased Commitments as its then Commitment bears to the aggregate
Commitments then existing.

          (b)  If any Lender party to this Agreement shall not elect to
increase its Commitment pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section, the
Borrowers may designate another lender or other lenders (which may be, but
need not be, one or more of the existing Lenders) which at the time agree to
(i) in the case of any such lender that is an existing Lender, increase its
Commitment and (ii) in the case of any other such lender (an "Additional
Lender"), become a party to this Agreement.  The sum of the increases in the
Commitments of the existing Lenders pursuant to this subsection (b) plus the
Commitments of the Additional Lenders shall not in the aggregate exceed the
unsubscribed amount of the Increased Commitments.

          (c)  An increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments pursuant
to this Section 2.18 shall become effective upon the receipt by the Agent of
an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent signed by the
Borrowers, by each Additional Lender and by each other Lender whose Commitment
is to be increased, setting forth the new Commitments of such Lenders and
setting forth the agreement of each Additional Lender to become a party to
this Agreement and to be bound by all the terms and provisions hereof,
together with such evidence of appropriate corporate authorization on the part
of the Borrowers with respect to the Increased Commitments and such opinions
of counsel for the Borrowers with respect to the Increased Commitments as the
Agent may reasonably request.

     Section 2.19     Term Loan.
                      ---------

          (a)  Each Lender severally agrees on the terms and conditions set
forth in this Agreement to make A Advances to the Borrowers (upon request of
the Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement) on the Termination Date in an amount
up to the sum of (i) the outstanding principal amount of the A Advances made
by such Lender and outstanding as of the opening of business on the
Termination Date plus (ii) the amount available to be borrowed as A Advances
from such Lender as of the opening of business on the Termination Date.  The
aggregate of such Committed Advances is collectively called the "Term Loans".

          (b)  The Term Loans shall be made upon the irrevocable written
notice (including notice via facsimile confirmed immediately by a telephone
call) of the Borrowers in the form of a Notice of Borrowing (which notice must
be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. New York
City time not less than three Business Days prior to the

                                      29

<PAGE>

Termination Date), specifying: (A) the amount of the Term Loan to each
Borrower which shall be in a principal amount not more than the sum of (i) the
aggregate principal amount of the A Advances made to such Borrower which will
be outstanding as of the opening of business on the Termination Date, plus
(ii) the amount available to be borrowed from the Lenders by such Borrower as
of the opening of business on the Termination Date; (B) whether the Term Loans
are to be comprised of Base Rate Advances or Eurodollar Advances, and the
amounts of such A Advances to each Borrower; and (C) the Interest Period
applicable to the A Advances included in such notice; provided, that, the Term
                                                      --------
Loans shall be made only if the Borrowers, in accordance with Section 2.16,
shall have requested that the then current Termination Date be extended; and,
provided further that if the Term Loans are made no Commitment Termination
-------- -------
Date of any Lender shall be extended.

The proceeds of the Term Loans, to the extent required, will be used to pay
the principal amount of the Advances outstanding as of the opening of business
on the Termination Date.

          (o)  Year 2000 Compliance.  The Corporation has developed and
               --------------------
budgeted for a comprehensive program to address the "year 2000 problem" (that
is, the inability of computers and computer software, as well as embedded
microchips in non-computing devices, to properly perform date-sensitive
functions with respect to certain dates prior to and after December 31, 1999).
The Corporation has, to date, implemented that program substantially in
accordance with its timetable and budget.  The Corporation reasonably believes
that the year 2000 problem will not result in a material adverse change in the
business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations or properties of the
Corporation and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.  The Corporation has
developed contingency plans to address a failure of its own or a third party's
systems or equipment due to the year 2000 problem.

without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of
which are here expressly waived by the Borrowers; provided, however, that in
                                                  --------  -------
the event of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to
the Corporation, the

<PAGE>

Partnership or any of their respective Subsidiaries under the Federal
Bankruptcy Code, (A) the obligation of each Lender to make Advances shall

                                  ARTICLE VII
                                   THE AGENT

     Section 7.01     Authorization and Action.
                      ------------------------
                      Each Lender hereby appoints and authorizes the Agent to
take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this
Agreement as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof, together with
such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  As to any matters not
expressly provided for by this Agreement (including, without limitation,
enforcement or collection of the Advances and other amounts owing hereunder),
the Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action,
but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully
protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the
Majority Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders;
provided, however, that the Agent shall not be required to take any action
--------  -------
which exposes the Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this
Agreement or applicable law.  The Agent agrees to give to each Lender prompt
notice of each notice given to it by either Borrower pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement.

     Section 7.02     Agent's Reliance, Etc.
                      ---------------------
                      Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers,
agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be
taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement, except for its
or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.  Without limitation of
the generality of the foregoing, the Agent:  (i) may treat the payee of any
Advance as the holder thereof until the Agent receives and accepts an
Assignment and Acceptance entered into by the Lender which is the payee of
such Advance, as assignor, and an Eligible Assignee, as assignee, as provided
in Section 9.07; (ii) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for
the Borrowers), independent public accountants and other experts selected by
it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good
faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or
experts; (iii) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender and shall not
be responsible to any Lender for any statements, warranties or representations
(whether written or oral) made in or in connection with this Agreement; (iv)
shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or
observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement on
the part of the Partnership or the Corporation or to inspect the property
(including the books and records) of the Partnership or the Corporation; (v)
shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality,
validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement
or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; and (vi) shall
incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement by acting upon any
notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by
telecopier, telegram, cable or telex) believed by it to be genuine and signed
or sent by the proper party or parties.

     Section 7.03     CUSA and Affiliates.
                      -------------------
                      With respect to its Commitment, the Advances made by it,
CUSA shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any

                                      52

<PAGE>

other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent; and
the term "Lender" or "Lenders" shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated,
include CUSA in its individual capacity.  CUSA and its affiliates may accept
deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, and
generally engage in any kind of business with, the Borrowers, any of their
respective subsidiaries and any Person who may do business with or own
securities of either Borrower or any such subsidiary, all as if CUSA were not
the Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

     Section 7.04     Lender Credit Decision.
                      ----------------------
                      Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and
without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender and based on the financial
statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and
decision to enter into this Agreement.  Each Lender also acknowledges that it
will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender
and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at
the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking
action under this Agreement.

     Section 7.05     Indemnification.
                      ---------------
                      The Lenders agree to indemnify the Agent (to the extent
not reimbursed by the Borrowers), ratably according to the respective
principal amounts of the A Advances then held by each of them (or if no A
Advances are at the time outstanding or if any A Advances are held by Persons
which are not Lenders, ratably according to the respective amounts of their
Commitments), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on,
incurred by, or asserted against the Agent in any way relating to or arising
out of this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by the Agent under this
Agreement, provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Agent's gross
negligence or willful misconduct.  Without limitation of the foregoing, each
Lender agrees to reimburse the Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable
share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by the
Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration,
syndication, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through
negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect
of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, to the extent that the
Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrowers.

     Section 7.06     Successor Agent.
                      ---------------
                      The Agent may resign at any time by giving written
notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrowers and may be removed at any time
with or without cause by the Majority Lenders.  Upon any such resignation or
removal, the Majority Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor
Agent.  If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority
Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the
retiring Agent's giving of notice of resignation or the Majority Lenders'
removal of the retiring Agent, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the
Lenders, appoint a successor Agent which shall be a commercial bank organized
under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof or any
Bank and, in each case having a combined capital and surplus of at least
$50,000,000.  Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a
successor

                                      53

<PAGE>

Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with
all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the
retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this
Agreement.  After any retiring Agent's resignation or removal hereunder as
Agent, the provisions of this Article VII shall inure to its benefit as to any
actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this
Agreement.

                                  ARTICLE VIII
                                  THE GUARANTY

     Section 8.01     Guaranty of the Guarantied Obligations.
                      --------------------------------------
                      The Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
guaranties, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, the due and punctual
payment in full of all Guarantied Obligations when and as the same shall
become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment or declaration
of (or in certain circumstances automatic) acceleration (including amounts
that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under
Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. Section 362(a)).  The term
"Guarantied Obligations" is used herein in its most comprehensive sense and
includes:

          (a)  any and all obligations of the Partnership in respect of notes,
advances, borrowings, loans, debts, interest, fees, costs, expenses
(including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses of counsel),
indemnities and liabilities of whatsoever nature now or hereafter made,
incurred or created, whether absolute or contingent, liquidated or
unliquidated, whether due or not due, arising under or in connection with this
Agreement, including those arising under successive borrowing transactions
under this Agreement which shall either continue such obligations of the
Partnership or from time to time renew them after they have been satisfied;
and

          (b)  those expenses set forth in Section 8.07 hereof.

This Article VIII, as it may be amended, amended and restated, supplemented or
otherwise modified from time to time, is sometimes referred to herein as the
"Guaranty" or this "Guaranty".

     Section 8.02     Liability of the Guarantor.
                      --------------------------
                      The Guarantor agrees that its obligations hereunder are
irrevocable, absolute, independent and unconditional and shall not be affected
by any circumstance which constitutes a legal or equitable discharge of a
guarantor or surety other than indefeasible payment in full of the Guarantied
Obligations.  In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the
generality thereof, the Guarantor agrees as follows:

          (a)  This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment when due and not of
collectibility.

          (b)  The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder are independent of
the obligations of the Partnership hereunder and the obligations of any other
guarantor of the obligations of the Partnership hereunder, and a separate
action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against the Guarantor whether
or not any action is brought against the Partnership or any of such other
guarantors and whether or not the Partnership is joined in any such action or
actions.

                                      54

<PAGE>

          (c)  The Guarantor's payment of a portion, but not all, of the
Guarantied Obligations shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge the
Guarantor's liability for any portion of the Guarantied Obligations which has
not been paid.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Agent is
awarded a judgment in any suit brought to enforce the Guarantor's covenant to
pay a portion of the Guarantied Obligations, such judgment shall not be deemed
to release the Guarantor from its covenant to pay the portion of the
Guarantied Obligations that is not the subject of such suit.

          (d)  The Agent or any Lender, upon such terms as it deems
appropriate, without notice or demand and without affecting the validity or
enforceability of this Guaranty or giving rise to any reduction, limitation,
impairment, discharge or termination of the Guarantor's liability hereunder,
from time to time may (i) renew, extend (whether pursuant to Section 2.16 or
otherwise), accelerate (in accordance with the terms of this Agreement),
increase the rate of interest on, or otherwise change the time, place, manner
or terms of payment of the Guarantied Obligations, (ii) settle, compromise,
release or discharge, or accept or refuse any offer of performance with
respect to, or substitutions for, the Guarantied Obligations or any agreement
relating thereto and/or subordinate the payment of the same to the payment of
any other obligations; (iii) request and accept other guaranties of the
Guarantied Obligations and take and hold security for the payment of this
Guaranty or the Guarantied Obligations; (iv) release, surrender, exchange,
substitute, compromise, settle, rescind, waive, alter, subordinate or modify,
with or without consideration, any security for payment of the Guarantied
Obligations, any other guaranties of the Guarantied Obligations, or any other
obligation of any Person with respect to the Guarantied Obligations; (v)
enforce and apply any security now or hereafter held by or for the benefit of
Agent or any Lender in respect of this Guaranty or the Guarantied Obligations
and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, or exercise any other right or
remedy that Agent or Lenders, or any of them, may have against any such
security, as Agent in its discretion may determine consistent with this
Agreement and any applicable security agreement, including foreclosure on any
such security pursuant to one or more judicial or non-judicial sales, whether
or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable, and even
though such action operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement
or subrogation or other right or remedy of the Guarantor against the
Partnership or any security for the Guarantied Obligations; and (vi) exercise
any other rights available to it hereunder.

          (e)  This Guaranty and the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder
shall be valid and enforceable and shall not be subject to any reduction,
limitation, impairment, discharge or termination for any reason (other than
indefeasible payment in full of the Guarantied Obligations), including without
limitation the occurrence of any of the following, whether or not the
Guarantor shall have had notice or knowledge of any of them:  (i) any failure
or omission to assert or enforce or agreement or election not to assert or
enforce, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation of law or
otherwise, of the exercise or enforcement of, any claim or demand or any
right, power or remedy (whether arising hereunder, at law, in equity or
otherwise) with respect to the Guarantied Obligations or any agreement
relating thereto, or with respect to any other guaranty of or security for the
payment of the Guarantied Obligations; (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment
or modification of, or any consent to departure from, any of the terms or
provisions (including without limitation provisions relating to events of
default) of this Agreement, or any agreement or instrument executed pursuant
thereto, or of any other guaranty

or security for the Guarantied Obligations, in each case whether or not in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement or any agreement relating to such
other guaranty or security; (iii) the Guarantied Obligations, or any agreement
relating thereto, at any time being found to be illegal, invalid or
unenforceable in any respect; (iv) the application of payments received from
any source (other than payments received from the proceeds of any security for
the Guarantied Obligations, except to the extent such security also serves as
collateral for indebtedness other than the Guarantied Obligations) to the
payment of indebtedness other than the Guarantied Obligations, even though
Agent or Lenders, or any of them, might have elected to apply such payment to
any part or all of the Guarantied Obligations; (v) any Lender's or Agent's
consent to the change, reorganization or termination of the corporate or
partnership structure or existence of the Partnership or any of its
Subsidiaries and to any corresponding restructuring of the Guarantied
Obligations; (vi) any failure to perfect or continue perfection of a security
interest in any collateral which secures any of the Guarantied Obligations;
(vii) any defenses which the Partnership may allege or assert against Agent or
any Lender in respect of the Guarantied Obligations, including but not limited
to statute of frauds, statute of limitations, and usury; and (viii) any other
act or thing or omission, or delay to do any other act or thing, which may or
might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Guarantor as an
obligor in respect of the Guarantied Obligations.

     Section 8.03     Waivers by the Guarantor.
                      ------------------------
                      The Guarantor hereby waives, for the benefit of Lenders
and Agent:

          (a)  any right to require Agent or Lenders, as a condition of
payment or performance by the Guarantor, to (i) proceed against the
Partnership, any other guarantor of the Guarantied Obligations or any other
Person, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from the
Partnership, any other guarantor of the Guarantied Obligations or any other
Person, (iii) proceed against or have resort to any balance of any deposit
account or credit on the books of Agent or any Lender in favor of the
Partnership or any other Person, or (iv) pursue any other remedy in the power
of Agent or any Lender whatsoever;

          (b)  any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of
authority or any disability or other defense of the Partnership including,
without limitation, any defense based on or arising out of the lack of
validity or the unenforceability of the Guarantied Obligations or any
agreement or instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the
liability of the Partnership from any cause other than indefeasible payment in
full of the Guarantied Obligations;

          (c)  any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which
provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor
in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal;

          (d)  (i) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or
otherwise, which are or might be in conflict with the terms of this Guaranty
and any legal or equitable discharge of the Guarantor's obligations hereunder,
(ii) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting the Guarantor's
liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof, and (iii) promptness, diligence
and any requirement that Agent or any Lender protect, secure, perfect or

                                      56

<PAGE>

          (e)  notices, demands, presentments, protests, notices of protest,
notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction, including
acceptance of this Guaranty, notices of default hereunder or any agreement or
instrument related thereto, notices of any renewal, extension or modification
of the Guarantied Obligations or any agreement related thereto, notices of any
extension of credit to the Partnership and notices of any of the matters
referred to in Section 8.02 and any right to consent to any thereof; and

          (f)  any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded
by law which limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or
which may conflict with the terms of this Guaranty.

     Section 8.04     Payment by the Guarantor.
                      ------------------------
                      The Guarantor hereby agrees, in furtherance of the
foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which Agent or any other
Person may have at law or in equity against the Guarantor by virtue hereof,
upon the failure of the Partnership to pay any of the Guarantied Obligations
when and as the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required
prepayment or declaration of (or, in certain circumstances, automatic)
acceleration, (including amounts that would become due but for the operation
of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C.
Section 362(a)), the Guarantor will forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in
cash, to Agent for the benefit of Lenders, an amount equal to the sum of the
unpaid principal amount of all Guarantied Obligations then due as aforesaid,
accrued and unpaid interest on such Guarantied Obligations (including, without
limitation, interest which, but for the filing of a petition in bankruptcy
with respect to the Partnership, would have accrued on such Guarantied
Obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed against the Partnership for
such interest in any such bankruptcy proceeding) and all other Guarantied
Obligations then owed to Agent and/or Lenders as aforesaid.

     Section 8.05     Subrogation.
                      -----------
                      Until the Guarantied Obligations shall have been
indefeasibly paid in full, the Guarantor shall withhold exercise of (a) any
right of subrogation, (b) any right of contribution the Guarantor may have
against any other guarantor of the Guarantied Obligations, (c) any right to
enforce any remedy which Agent or any Lender now has or may hereafter have
against the Partnership or (d) any benefit of, and any right to participate
in, any security now or hereafter held by Agent or any Lender.  The Guarantor
further agrees that, to the extent that its agreement to defer exercising any
of its rights of subrogation and contribution as set forth herein is found by
a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any
rights of subrogation the Guarantor may have against the Partnership or
against any collateral or security, and any rights of contribution the
Guarantor may have against any other guarantor, shall be junior and
subordinate to any rights Agent or Lenders may have against the Partnership,
to all right, title and interest Agent or Lenders may have in any such
collateral or security, and to any right Agent or Lenders may have against
such other guarantor.  Agent, on behalf of Lenders, may use, sell or dispose
of any item of collateral or security as it sees fit without regard to any
subrogation rights the Guarantor may have, and upon any such disposition or
sale any rights of subrogation the Guarantor may have shall terminate.  If any
amount shall be paid to the Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at
any time when all Guarantied Obligations shall not have been paid in full,
such amount shall be held in trust for Agent on behalf of Lenders and shall
forthwith be paid over to Agent for the benefit of

                                      57

<PAGE>

Lenders to be credited and applied against the Guarantied Obligations in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement or any applicable security
agreement.

     Section 8.06     Subordination of Other Obligations.
                      ----------------------------------
                      Any indebtedness of the Partnership or any Subsidiary of
the Partnership now or hereafter held by the Guarantor is hereby subordinated
in right of payment to the Guarantied Obligations, and any such indebtedness
of the Partnership or any Subsidiary of the Partnership to the Guarantor
collected or received by the Guarantor after an Event of Default resulting
from a payment default has occurred and is continuing or after an acceleration
of the Guarantied Obligations shall be held in trust for Agent on behalf of
Lenders and shall forthwith be paid over to Agent for the benefit of Lenders
to be credited and applied against the Guarantied Obligations but without
affecting, impairing or limiting in any manner the liability of the Guarantor
under any other provision of this Guaranty.

     Section 8.07     Expenses.
                      --------
                      The Guarantor agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, and to
save Agent and Lenders harmless against liability for, any and all reasonable
costs and out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel)
incurred or expended by Agent or any Lender in connection with the enforcement
of or preservation of any rights under this Guaranty.

     Section 8.08     Continuing Guaranty; Termination of Guaranty.
                      --------------------------------------------
                      This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall remain
in effect until all of the Guarantied Obligations shall have been indefeasibly
paid in full and the Commitments of all Lenders shall have terminated.

     Section 8.09     Authority of the Guarantor or the Partnership.
                      ---------------------------------------------
                      It is not necessary for Lenders or Agent to inquire into
the capacity or powers of the Guarantor or the Partnership or the officers,
directors or any agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any of them.

     Section 8.10     Financial Condition of the Partnership.
                      --------------------------------------
                      Any Advances may be granted to the Partnership or
continued from time to time without notice to or authorization from Guarantor
regardless of the financial or other condition of the Partnership at the time
of any such grant or continuation.  Lenders and Agent shall have no obligation
to disclose or discuss with the Guarantor their assessment, or the Guarantor's
assessment, of the financial condition of the Partnership.  The Guarantor has
adequate means to obtain information from the Partnership on a continuing
basis concerning the financial condition of the Partnership and its ability to
perform its obligations hereunder, and the Guarantor assumes the
responsibility for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of
the Partnership and of all circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment
of the Guarantied Obligations.  The Guarantor hereby waives and relinquishes
any duty on the part of Agent or any Lender to disclose any matter, fact or
thing relating to the business, operations or conditions of the Partnership
now known or hereafter known by Agent or any Lender.

     Section 8.11     Rights Cumulative.
                      -----------------
                      The rights, powers and remedies given to Lenders and
Agent by this Guaranty are cumulative and shall be in addition to and
independent of all rights, powers and remedies given to Lenders and Agent by
virtue of any statute or rule of

                                      58

<PAGE>

law or under this Agreement or any agreement between the Corporation and
Lenders and/or Agent or between the Partnership and Lenders and/or Agent.  Any
forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay by any Lender or Agent in
exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such
right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it
preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy.

     Section 8.12     Bankruptcy; Post-Petition Interest; Reinstatement of the
                      --------------------------------------------------------
                      Guaranty.
                      --------

          (a)  So long as any Guarantied Obligations remain outstanding, the
Guarantor shall not, without the prior written consent of Agent in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement, commence or join with any other Person in
commencing any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency proceedings of or
against the Partnership.  The obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty
shall not be reduced, limited, impaired, discharged, deferred, suspended or
terminated by any proceeding, voluntary or involuntary, involving the
bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, liquidation or
arrangement of the Partnership or by any defense which the Partnership may
have by reason of the order, decree or decision of any court or administrative
body resulting from any such proceeding.

          (b)  The Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that any interest on any
portion of the Guarantied Obligations which accrues after the commencement of
any proceeding referred to in clause (a) above (or, if interest on any portion
of the Guarantied Obligations ceases to accrue by operation of law by reason
of the commencement of said proceeding, such interest as would have accrued on
such portion of the Guarantied Obligations if said proceedings had not been
commenced) shall be included in the Guarantied Obligations because it is the
intention of the Guarantor and Agent that the Guarantied Obligations which are
guarantied by the Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty should be determined
without regard to any rule of bankruptcy or other similar laws or which may
relieve the Partnership of any portion of such Guarantied Obligations.  The
Guarantor will permit any trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, debtor in
possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors or similar person to pay
Agent, or allow the claim of Agent in respect of, any such interest accruing
after the date on which such proceeding is commenced.

          (c)  In the event that all or any portion of the Guarantied
Obligations are paid by the Partnership, the obligations of the Guarantor
hereunder shall continue and remain in full force and effect or be reinstated,
as the case may be, in the event that all or any part of such payment(s) are
rescinded or recovered directly or indirectly from Agent or any Lender as a
preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, and any such payments which are
so rescinded or recovered shall constitute Guarantied Obligations for all
purposes under this Guaranty.

     Section 8.13     Notice of Events.
                      ----------------
                      As soon as the Guarantor obtains knowledge thereof, the
Guarantor shall give Agent written notice of any condition or event which has
resulted or might reasonably be expected to result in (a) a material adverse
change in the financial condition of the Guarantor or the Partnership, or (b)
a breach of or noncompliance with any term, condition or covenant contained in
this Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant hereto, or (c) a material
breach of, or material noncompliance with, any material term, condition or
covenant of any material contract to which the Guarantor or the Partnership is
a party or by which the Guarantor or the Partnership or the Guarantor's or the
Partnership's

                                      59

<PAGE>

property may be bound, or (d) the Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries being
suspended or debarred by any governmental entity from entering into any
government contract or government subcontract, from otherwise engaging in any
business relating to government contracts or from participation in government
non-procurement programs, if such suspension or debarment may have a material
adverse effect on the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations
or properties of the Guarantor and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

     Section 8.14     Set Off.
                      -------
                      In addition to any other rights any Lender may have
under law or in equity, if any amount shall at any time be due and owing by
the Guarantor to any Lender under this Guaranty, such Lender is authorized at
any time or from time to time, without notice (any such notice being hereby
expressly waived), to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all
deposits (including but not limited to indebtedness evidenced by certificates
of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, time or demand deposits, provisional
or final deposits, or general deposits but not special deposits) and any other
indebtedness of such Lender or any Affiliate thereof owing to the Guarantor
and any other property of the Guarantor held by such Lender to or for the
credit or the account of the Guarantor against and on account of the
Guarantied Obligations and liabilities of Guarantor to such Lender under this
Guaranty, and each such Affiliate is hereby irrevocably authorized to permit
such setoff and application.

     Section 8.15     Determination of the Guarantied Obligations.
                      -------------------------------------------
                      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Guaranty, the determination of the amount and terms of repayment of the
Guarantied Obligations under this Guaranty shall be consistent with such
determination pursuant to this Agreement (without giving effect to the effect
upon such determination of the Bankruptcy Code) with the result that the
liability of the Guarantor under this Guaranty will not exceed the liability
which the Guarantor would have had if it had been the Partnership under this
Agreement (plus any amounts payable pursuant to Section 8.07 hereof); provided
                                                                      --------
however that the Guarantor's agreements and waivers set forth herein with
-------
respect to suretyship defenses (including, without limitation, defenses based
on lack of authority of the Partnership or persons signing on behalf of the
Partnership or the illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of this
Agreement against the Partnership) shall be fully effective, it being
understood that the limitation on the Guarantor's liability set forth above
relates only to the determination of the amount and payment terms of the
Guarantied Obligations and does not otherwise limit the Guarantor's
obligations under this Guaranty.

     Section 8.16     Successors and Assigns.
                      ----------------------
                      This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall be
binding upon the Guarantor and its successors and assigns.  This Guaranty
shall inure to the benefit of Lenders, Agent and their respective successors
and assigns.  The Guarantor shall not assign this Guaranty or any of the
rights or obligations of the Guarantor hereunder without the prior written
consent of all Lenders.  Any Lender may, without notice or consent, assign its
interest in this Guaranty in whole or in part.  The terms and provisions of
this Guaranty shall inure to the benefit of any assignee or transferee of any
rights and obligations under this Agreement, and in the event of such transfer
or assignment the rights and privileges herein conferred upon Lenders and
Agent shall automatically extend to and be vested in such transferee or
assignee, all subject to the terms and conditions hereof.

     Section 8.17     Further Assurances.
                      ------------------
                      At any time or from time to time, upon the request of
Agent or Majority Lenders, the Guarantor shall execute and deliver such
further

                                      60

<PAGE>

documents and do such other acts and things as Agent or Majority Lenders may
reasonably request in order to effect fully the purposes of this Guaranty.

Agreement, nor consent to any departure by the Partnership or the Corporation
therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing

effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which
given; provided, however, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless

Agent under this Agreement; and provided further, that any amendment,

modification, termination or waiver of the principal amount of any B Advance
or payments or prepayments by either Borrower in respect thereof, the

payable and decreases in interest rates borne by B Advances shall not be
effective without the written concurrence of the Lender which has funded such
B Advance.

                      No failure on the part of any Lender or the Agent to

     Section 9.04     Costs, Expenses and Indemnification.
                      -----------------------------------

          (a)  The Partnership and the Corporation jointly and severally agree
to pay promptly on demand all reasonable costs and out-of-pocket expenses of
Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration,
syndication, modification and amendment of this Agreement, and the other
documents to be delivered hereunder or thereunder, including, without

with the enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or

          (b)  If any payment of principal of any Eurodollar Rate Advance or B

or for any other reason, such Borrower shall, upon demand by any Lender (with
a copy of such demand to the Agent), pay to the Agent for the account of such
Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any additional
losses, costs or expenses which it may reasonably incur as a result of such
payment, including, without limitation, any loss, cost or expense incurred by
reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired
by any Lender to fund or maintain such Advance.

          (c)  The Partnership and the Corporation jointly and severally agree

officer, employee, agent, attorney and affiliate of the Agent and each Lender
(each an "indemnified person") in connection with any expenses, losses,
claims, damages or liabilities to which the Agent, a Lender or such
indemnified persons may become subject, insofar as such expenses, losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or other proceedings commenced or
threatened in respect thereof) arise out of the transactions referred to in
this Agreement or arise from any use or intended use of the

action or proceeding out of which any such expense arises).  Notwithstanding

have.
