                                   THE CREDITS

                  Section 2.01. Commitments to Make Loans; Continuation and
Conversion Elections.(a) Each Lender severally agrees, on the terms and
conditions set forth herein, to make Loans to the Borrower on or about the
Effective Date in the amount of its Commitment; provided that all Loans by the
Lenders shall be made on or about the Effective Date (when all conditions in
Section 3.01 have been satisfied), in the aggregate principal amount of the
Commitments, by converting the outstanding principal amount of each Lender's New
Bank Debt as of the Effective Date to Loans borrowed hereunder, and thereafter,
all Loans shall be made only as Refunding Loans. The initial Borrowing on the
Effective Date shall be Euro-Dollar Loans. Thereafter, by delivering a notice (a
"Notice of Continuation or Conversion"), which shall be substantially in the
form of Exhibit G, to the Administrative Agent on or before 12:00 P.M.,
prevailing Eastern time, on a Business Day, the Borrower may from time to time
irrevocably elect, by notice on the same Business Day, in the case of Base Rate
Loans, and 3 Business Days, in the case of Euro-Dollar Loans, that all, or any
portion in an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or any larger integral
multiple of $1,000,000 be, (i) in the case of Base Rate Loans, converted into
Euro-Dollar Loans or, (ii) in the case of Euro-Dollar Loans, converted into Base
Rate Loans or continued as Euro-Dollar Loans (in the absence of delivery of a
Notice of Continuation or Conversion with respect to any Euro-Dollar Loan at
least 3 Business Days before the last day of the then current Interest Period
with respect thereto, such Euro-Dollar Loan shall, on such last day,
automatically convert to a Base Rate Loan); provided, however, that (x) each
such conversion or continuation shall be pro rated among the applicable
outstanding Loans of all Lenders that have made such Loans, and (y) no portion
of the outstanding principal amount of any Loans may be continued as, or be
converted into, a Euro-Dollar Loan when any Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing.

         (b)      Each Borrowing under this Section shall be made from the
several Lenders ratably in proportion to their respective Commitments. Once
repaid, Borrowings may not be reborrowed pursuant hereto except as Refunding
Loans.

                                       21
<PAGE>

         (c)      Upon receipt of a Notice of Continuation or Conversion,
the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the contents
thereof and such Notice of Continuation or Conversion shall not thereafter be
revocable by the Borrower.

         Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement,
no Euro-Dollar Borrowing may be made if there shall have occurred and be
continuing a Default or an Event of Default, which Default or Event of Default
shall not have been cured or waived in writing; provided, however, so long as a
Default which is not an Event of Default is continuing, Euro-Dollar Borrowings
having a 1 month Interest Period shall be available.

                  Section 2.02. Notes.

         (a)      The Loans of each Lender shall be evidenced by a single
Note payable to the order of such Lender for the account of its Lending Office
in an amount equal to the original principal amount of such Lender's Commitment.

         (b)      Upon receipt of each Lender's Note pursuant to Section 3.01,
the Administrative Agent shall deliver such Note to such Lender. Each Lender
shall record, and prior to any transfer of its Note shall endorse on the
schedule forming a part thereof appropriate notations to evidence, the date,
amount and maturity of, and effective interest rate for, each Loan made by it,
the date and amount of each payment of principal made by the Borrower with
respect thereto and whether such Loan is a Base Rate Loan or Euro-Dollar Loan,
and such schedule shall constitute rebuttable presumptive evidence of the
principal amount owing and unpaid on such Lender's Note; provided that the
failure of any Lender to make, or any error in making, any such recordation or
endorsement shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under
such Note or the ability of any Lender to assign its Note. Each Lender is hereby
irrevocably authorized by the Borrower so to endorse its Note and to attach to
and make a part of its Note a continuation of any such schedule as and when
required.

                  Section 2.03. Maturity of Loans. Each Loan included in any
Borrowing shall mature, and the principal amount thereof shall be due and
payable, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Borrowing,
but shall be repaid through a Refunding Loan, except to the extent of any
installment payment required pursuant to the next succeeding sentence.
Semi-annual installment principal payments on the Loans shall be made on each of
the Principal Payment Dates set forth below in the aggregate principal amount
set forth below for such Principal Payment Date, together with interest thereon
and any amount payable pursuant to Section 8.05(a); provided, however, that to
the extent the payment of estimated Effective Date Net Cash on the Effective
Date pursuant to Section 3.01(h)(ii) is determined by mutual agreement of the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent to be greater or less than actual
Effective Date Net Cash, the payment on the Principal Payment Date on June 30,
2002 shall be increased or decreased by such excess or shortfall, as the case
may be:

                  Section 2.04. Interest Rates.

         (a)      "Applicable Margin" means (x) as to Base Rate Loans, 3.5%,
and (y) as to Euro-Dollar Loans, 4.5%.

         (b)      Each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding
principal amount thereof, for each day from the date such Loan is made until it
becomes due, at a rate per annum equal to the greater of (x) the Base Rate for
such day plus the Applicable Margin and (y) 7.75%, calculated for purposes of
this clause (y) for the actual number of days elapsed in a 365/366 day year.
Such interest shall be payable on each Monthly Payment Date while such Base Rate
Loan is outstanding and on the date such Base Rate Loan is converted to a
Euro-Dollar Rate Loan. Any overdue principal of and, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, overdue interest on any Base Rate Loan shall bear interest,
payable on demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to the
Default Rate.

         (c)      Each Euro-Dollar Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding
principal amount thereof, for the Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate
per annum equal to the greater of (x) the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the
applicable Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate for such Interest Period and
(y) 7.75%, calculated for purposes of this clause (y) for the actual number of
days elapsed in a 365/366 day year. Such interest shall be payable on each
Monthly Payment Date while such Euro-Dollar Loan is outstanding and on the last
day of the Interest Period for such Euro-Dollar Rate Loan. Any overdue principal
of and, to the extent permitted by

                                       23
<PAGE>

applicable law, overdue interest on any Euro-Dollar Loan shall bear interest,
payable on demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to the
Default Rate.

                  The "Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate" applicable to any
Interest Period means a rate per annum equal to the quotient obtained (rounded
upward, if necessary, to the next higher 1/100th of 1%) by dividing (i) the
applicable London Interbank Offered Rate for such Interest Period by (ii) 100%
minus the Euro-Dollar Reserve Percentage.

                  The "London Interbank Offered Rate" applicable to any
Euro-Dollar Loan means for the Interest Period of such Euro-Dollar Loan the rate
per annum determined on the basis of the rate for deposits in Dollars of amounts
equal or comparable to the principal amount of such Euro-Dollar Loan offered for
a term comparable to such Interest Period, which rate appears on Page "3750" of
the Telerate Service (or such other page as may replace page 3750 of that
service or such other service or services as may be nominated by the British
Bankers' Association for the purpose of displaying London interbank offered
rates for deposits in Dollars), determined as of 11:00 A.M., prevailing Eastern
time, 2 Business Days prior to the first day of such Interest Period.

                  "Euro-Dollar Reserve Percentage" means for any day that
percentage (expressed as a decimal) which is in effect on such day, as
prescribed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any
successor thereof) for determining the maximum reserve requirement for a member
bank of the Federal Reserve System in respect of "Eurocurrency liabilities" (or
in respect of any other category of liabilities which includes deposits by
reference to which the interest rate on Euro-Dollar Loans is determined or any
category of extensions of credit or other assets which includes loans by a
non-United States office of any Lender to United States residents). The Adjusted
London Interbank Offered Rate shall be adjusted automatically on and as of the
effective date of any change in the Euro-Dollar Reserve Percentage.

         (d)      The Administrative Agent shall determine each interest rate
applicable to the Loans hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt
notice to the Borrower and the Lenders by telecopy of each rate of interest so
determined, and its determination thereof shall be conclusive in the absence of
manifest error.

         (e)      After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event
of Default, the principal amount of the Loans (and, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, all accrued interest thereon) shall bear interest at the Default
Rate.

                  Section 2.05. Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the
Administrative Agent, for the account and sole benefit of the Administrative
Agent, such fees and other amounts at such times as are provided in the fee
letter between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent dated January 8, 2002,
or as otherwise may be agreed upon in writing by the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent.

                  Section 2.06. Termination of Commitments. The Commitments
shall terminate on the Maturity Date and any Loans then outstanding (together
with accrued interest thereon) shall be due and payable on such date.

                  Section 2.07. Optional Prepayments.

         (a)      The Borrower may, upon at least 1 Business Day's notice to the
Administrative Agent, prepay any Base Rate Borrowing in whole at any time, or
from time to time in part in amounts aggregating at least $1,000,000, or any
larger multiple of $500,000, by paying the principal amount to be prepaid
together with accrued interest and unpaid thereon to the date of prepayment.
Each such optional prepayment shall be applied to prepay ratably the Base Rate
Loans of the several Lenders included in such Base Rate Borrowing.

         (b)      Except as provided in Sections 2.01 and 8.02, the Borrower
may prepay all or any portion of the principal amount of any Euro-Dollar Loan in
amounts aggregating at least $1,000,000, or any larger multiple of $500,000
prior to the maturity thereof only upon (i) at least 3 Business Days' notice to
the Administrative Agent, (ii) compliance with the provisions of Section 8.05,
and (iii) payment of an administrative fee of $250 to the Administrative Agent
(which fee shall be retained by the Administrative Agent). Each such optional
prepayment shall be applied to prepay ratably the Euro-Dollar Loans of the
several Lenders included in such Euro-Dollar Borrowing.

         (c)      Upon receipt of a notice of prepayment pursuant to this
Section, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the
contents thereof and of such Lender's ratable share of such prepayment and such
notice shall not thereafter be revocable by the Borrower.

                  Section 2.08.     Mandatory Prepayments.

         (a)      The Borrower shall repay or prepay Loans in an amount equal
to 50% of Net Cash Proceeds described in clauses (i) and (v) of the definition
thereof, and 100% of all other Net Cash Proceeds, within 15 Business Days after
the receipt of Net Cash Proceeds; provided, that amounts not included in Net
Cash Proceeds pursuant to:

                           (x) clause (i) of the definition thereof which have
                  not been used or committed to be used within 180 days from the
                  sale of the equipment to be replaced shall be paid on such
                  180th day; or

                           (y) clause (v)(D) of the definition thereof which
                  have not been used or committed to be used within 180 days
                  from the casualty or condemnation of such Property to restore
                  or replace the relevant Property shall be paid on such 180th
                  day.

         (b)      Within 90 days after the end of the first Fiscal Quarter of
each Fiscal Year, commencing with the Fiscal Quarter ending March 31, 2003, the
Borrower shall repay or prepay Loans in an amount equal to the greater of (i)
50% of EBIDTA in excess of projected EBITDA (as set forth in Exhibit E to the
disclosure statement relating the Reorganization Plan) for the prior Fiscal Year
and (ii) 50% of Cash Balances in excess of $15 million at the end of the first
Fiscal Quarter of such Fiscal Year, provided that (1) in computing Cash Balances
for purposes of the foregoing, there shall be no deduction for any prepayments
outside the ordinary course of business of any obligations due and payable after
the end of such first Fiscal Quarter of such Fiscal Year, and (2) the Borrower
shall first deduct from any amounts required to be paid

                                       25
<PAGE>

pursuant to this Section 2.08(b) amounts sufficient to reduce the outstanding
principal amount of any revolving credit facility to $20 million (the "Mandatory
Prepayment Threshold"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if for any reason there
is a permanent reduction in the commitment amount of any revolving credit
facility, the Mandatory Prepayment Threshold shall be adjusted downward on a
dollar-for-dollar basis for purposes of determining the amount of any prepayment
or repayment required to be made pursuant to this Section 2.08(b).

         (c)      Prepayments pursuant to this Section 2.08 shall be made to the
Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the Lenders, based on the
aggregate principal balance of the Loans as of the time of the payment;
provided, that any Lender (a "Declining Lender") may, by notice to the
Administrative Agent as provided below, decline to accept any particular
prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.08, in which event the amount of any
prepayment otherwise payable to such Declining Lender shall be paid to the other
Lenders that are not Declining Lenders on a pro rata basis.

         (d)      At least 10 Business Days prior to any sale giving rise to Net
Cash Proceeds subject to clause (a) of this Section, the Borrower shall send a
notice to the Administrative Agent (a "Sale Notice") which describes, with
respect to such sale, (1) the property to be sold, (2) the anticipated sale
date, (3) the anticipated gross sale proceeds and (4) the anticipated Net Sale
Proceeds. Promptly upon receipt of any Sale Notice, the Administrative Agent
shall send a copy thereof to each Lender. Within 5 Business Days after the
completion of any sale, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of
the actual gross sale proceeds and Net Cash Proceeds received in connection
therewith. At least 20 Business Days prior to furnishing its annual financial
statements to the Lenders pursuant to Section 5.01(a) (or on the date such
statements are required to be so furnished pursuant to such Section, if they
have not been furnished by such date), the Borrower shall send a notice to the
Administrative Agent (an "EBITDA Notice") setting forth the amount of EBITDA
payable pursuant to Section 2.08(b) with respect to the Fiscal Year just ended.
Promptly upon receipt of the EBITDA Notice, the Administrative Agent shall send
a copy thereof to each Lender. Within 15 Business Days after receipt of a copy
of a Sale Notice or any EBITDA Notice, each Lender desiring to waive a
prepayment under Section 2.08(b) shall so notify the Administrative Agent in
writing and such Lender shall be a Declining Lender (and any Lender which fails
to give such notice within such period shall be deemed not to have waived such
payment).

         (e)      All prepayments made for the account of the Lenders pursuant
to this Section 2.08 shall be accompanied by any amount required to be paid
pursuant to Section 8.05(a), and shall be applied in installments of principal
in the inverse order of maturity.

                  Section 2.09. General Provisions as to Payments.

         (a)      The Borrower shall make each payment of principal of, and
interest on, the Loans and any fees payable hereunder without set-off or
counterclaim, not later than 11:00 A.M. prevailing Eastern time, on the date
when due, in Federal or other funds immediately available in Irving, Texas to
the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 9.01. The
Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its ratable share
of each such payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the
Lenders.

                                       26
<PAGE>

         (b)      Whenever any payment of principal of, or interest on, the
Base Rate Loans or any fees shall be due on a day which is not a Business Day,
the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business
Day. Whenever any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Euro-Dollar Loans
shall be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the date for payment thereof
shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless such Business Day
falls in another calendar month, in which case the date for payment thereof
shall be the next preceding Business Day. If the date for any payment of
principal is extended by operation of law or otherwise, interest thereon shall
be payable for such extended time at the applicable rates set forth in this
Agreement.

         (c)      Except as provided in Section 2.08(c), each payment or
prepayment of Loans shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to repay or
prepay ratably the Loans of the several Lenders in the following order of
priority:

                  (i)      first, to Euro-Dollar Loans for which the Interest
         Period expires on the date of such payment or prepayment;

                  (ii)     second, to Base Rate Loans; and

                  (iii)    third, to Euro-Dollar Loans for which the Interest
         Period expires after the date of such payment or prepayment (in direct
         order of maturity).

         (d)      (i) All payments of principal, interest and fees and all other
amounts due and payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement with respect
to any Loan or fee relating thereto shall be paid without deduction for, and
free from, any tax, imposts, levies, duties, deductions, or withholdings of any
nature now or at anytime hereafter imposed by any governmental authority or by
any taxing authority thereof, excluding in the case of each Lender, taxes
imposed on or measured by its net income or overall gross receipts, and
franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such
Lender is organized or in which the applicable Lending Office of any such Lender
is located or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof, or by any
other jurisdiction or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof
(other than a jurisdiction in which such Lender would not be subject to tax but
for the execution and performance of this Agreement) (all such non-excluded
taxes, imposts, levies, duties, deductions or withholdings of any nature being
"Taxes"). In the event that the Borrower is required by applicable law to make
any such withholding or deduction of Taxes with respect to any Loan or fee or
other amount due and payable hereunder, the Borrower shall pay such deduction or
withholding to the applicable taxing authority, shall promptly furnish to any
Lender in respect of which such deduction or withholding is made all receipts
and other documents evidencing such payment, subject to the Lender's compliance
with subsection (d)(ii) to the extent it is able to do so, and shall pay to such
Lender additional amounts as may be necessary in order that the amount received
by such Lender after the required withholding or other payment shall equal the
amount such Lender would have received had no such withholding or other payment
been made. If the Borrower fails to provide such original or certified copy of a
receipt evidencing payment of Taxes or certificate(s) or opinion of counsel of
exemption therefrom, the Borrower hereby agrees, subject to the Lender's
compliance with subsection (d)(ii) to the extent it is able to do so, to
compensate such Lender for, and indemnify them with respect to, the tax
consequences of the Borrower's failure to provide evidence of tax payments or
tax exemption.

                                       27
<PAGE>

         (ii)     Each Lender which is not organized under the laws of the
United States or any state thereof agrees to deliver to the Borrower, with a
copy to the Administrative Agent, prior to the first payment date after becoming
a Lender (or upon changing the jurisdiction of its applicable Lending Office),
such certificates, documents, forms and other evidence required by the
governmental authority in the jurisdiction imposing any applicable Taxes, and
such other information reasonably requested by the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent, establishing that the Lender is entitled to receive
payments of principal and interest under this Agreement and the Notes without
deduction and free from withholding of any Taxes imposed by such jurisdiction
(and, from time to time, to provide the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
with any required revisions or replacements to such certificates, documents,
forms and other evidence); provided that if it is unable, for any reason, to
establish such exemption, or to file such forms and, in any event, during such
period of time as such request for exemption is pending, the Borrower shall
nonetheless remain obligated under the terms of the immediately preceding
paragraph.

         (iii)    In the event any Lender receives a refund of any Taxes paid
by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.09(d), it will pay to the Borrower
the amount of such refund promptly upon receipt thereof; provided that if at any
time thereafter it is required to return such refund, the Borrower shall
promptly repay to such Lender the amount of such refund.

         (iv)     Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of
the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower and the
Lenders contained in this Section 2.09(d) shall be applicable with respect to
any Participant, Assignee or other Transferee as of the time of such
participation, assignment or other transfer, and any calculations required by
such provisions (A) shall be made based upon the circumstances of such
Participant, Assignee or other Transferee, and (B) constitute a continuing
agreement and shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment in
full or cancellation of the Notes.

                  Section 2.10. Computation of Interest and Fees. Interest on
Base Rate Loans shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and paid
for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the
last day). Interest on Euro-Dollar Loans shall be computed on the basis of a
year of 360 days and paid for the actual number of days elapsed, calculated as
to each Interest Period from and including the first day thereof to but
excluding the last day thereof. Any fees payable hereunder shall be computed on
the basis of a year of 360 days and paid for the actual number of days elapsed
(including the first day but excluding the last day).

                           CONDITIONS TO EFFECTIVENESS

                  Section 3.01. Conditions Precedent to Effectiveness. This
Agreement shall become effective on and as of the first date on which the
following conditions precedent have been satisfied (the "Effective Date"):

of the State of Delaware, is duly qualified to transact business in every
jurisdiction where, by the nature of its business, such qualification is
necessary, and has all corporate powers and all governmental licenses,
authorizations, consents and approvals required to carry on its business as now

Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents (i) are within the Borrower's

valid and binding agreement of the Borrower enforceable in accordance with its
terms, and the Notes and the other Loan Documents, when executed and delivered

principles of equity and to bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting
the enforcement of creditors' rights generally.

                  Section 4.04. Financial Information.

         (a)      The consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2000 and the related consolidated statements of

conformity with GAAP, the consolidated financial position of the Borrower and
its Subsidiaries as of such dates and their consolidated results of operations

         (b)      Since December 31, 2000, there has been no event, act,

to transact business in every jurisdiction where, by the nature of its business,
such qualification is necessary, and has all corporate powers and all

approvals would not have a Material Adverse Effect. As of the Effective Date,

of the Borrower's knowledge, the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries maintain
all Environmental Authorizations necessary for the conduct of their respective
businesses and are in compliance with all Environmental Laws applicable to the
operation of the Properties and their respective businesses, excluding any
omission of Environmental Authorizations or violation of Environmental Laws

                  Section 4.15. Compliance with Laws. The Borrower and each
Subsidiary is in compliance with all applicable laws, including, without
limitation, all Environmental Laws, except where any failure to comply with any
such laws would not, alone or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

                  Section 4.16. Capital Stock. All Capital Stock, debentures,
bonds, notes and all other securities of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries
presently issued and outstanding are validly and properly issued in accordance
with all applicable laws, including, but not limited to, the "Blue Sky" laws of
all applicable states and the federal securities laws; provided that this
representation shall not extend to any violation of applicable laws in
connection with any such issuance occurring by reason of the action or inaction
of any Person other than the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Person retained or
employed by the Borrower or any Subsidiary. The issued shares of Capital Stock
of the Borrower's Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries are owned by the Borrower free and
clear of any Lien or adverse claim, other than Liens permitted by this
Agreement. At least a majority of the issued shares of capital stock of each of
the Borrower's Subsidiaries (other than Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries) is owned by

Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is engaged principally, or as one of its
important activities, in the business of purchasing or carrying any Margin
Stock. No part of the proceeds of any Loan will be used for any purpose which
violates, or which is inconsistent with, the provisions of Regulation X.

and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of the Loans under this
Agreement, the Borrower will not be "insolvent," within the meaning of such term
as used in O.C.G.A. ss. 18-2-22 or as defined in Section 101 of title 11 of the
United States Code or Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, or any
other applicable state law pertaining to fraudulent transfers, as each may be
amended from time to time, or be unable to pay its debts generally as such debts
become due, or have an unreasonably small capital to engage in any business or
transaction, whether current or contemplated.

                                       40
<PAGE>

faith through appropriate proceedings diligently pursued. The Borrower will, and

Properties which could cause a Material Adverse Effect, (iii) the designation of
the Borrower or such Subsidiary as a potentially responsible party under CERCLA

furnish to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent written notice thereof.

Subsidiaries will not, and will not knowingly permit any Third Party to, use,
produce, manufacture, process, treat, recycle, generate, store, dispose, manage,

which gives rise to an Environmental Liability which could cause a Material
Adverse Effect.

Environmental Release of Hazardous Materials at any of the Properties of which
Borrower or a Subsidiary becomes aware, the Borrower or such Subsidiary shall

Laws with respect to such Environmental Release.

                  Section 5.19. Additional Covenants, Etc. In the event that at
any time this Agreement is in effect or any Note remains unpaid the Borrower
shall enter into any agreement, guarantee, indenture or other instrument
governing, relating to, providing for commitments to advance or guaranteeing any
Financing which exceeds $3,000,000 in aggregate amount (a "New

                                       41
<PAGE>

Financing Agreement") or to amend any terms and conditions applicable to any
Financing which exceeds $3,000,000 in aggregate amount (a "Financing Agreement
Amendment"), which New Financing Agreement includes or which Financing Agreement
Amendment adds or modifies Covenants, warranties, representations, defaults or
events of default (or any other type of restriction which would have the
practical effect of any of the foregoing, including, without limitation, any
"put" or mandatory prepayment of all or substantially all of such Debt) not
substantially as, or in addition to those, provided in this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, or more favorable to the lender or other counterparty
thereunder than those provided in this Agreement or any other Loan Document
(individually an "Additional Term" and collectively, the "Additional Terms"),
the Borrower shall promptly so notify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.
Thereupon, if the Administrative Agent shall request an amendment by written
notice to the Borrower (after a determination has been made by the Required
Lenders that any such New Financing Agreement or Financing Agreement Amendment
contains any provisions which either individually or in the aggregate are more
favorable than one of the provisions set forth herein), then the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall enter into an amendment to this
Agreement providing for substantially the same such Additional Terms as those
provided for in such New Financing Agreement or Financing Agreement Amendment,
as the case may be, to the extent required and as may be selected by the
Administrative Agent, such amendment to remain in effect, unless otherwise
specified in writing by the Administrative Agent, for the entire duration of the
stated term to maturity of such Financing (to and including the date to which
the same may be extended at the Borrower's option), notwithstanding that such
Financing might be earlier terminated by prepayment, refinancing, acceleration
or otherwise; provided that if any such New Financing Agreement or the
agreement, guarantee, indenture or other instrument amended by a Financing
Agreement Amendment shall be modified, supplemented, amended or restated so as
to modify, amend or eliminate therefrom any such Additional Term so made a part
of this Agreement, then so long as there exists no Default or Event of Default,
the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall, at the Borrower's request made
within 90 days following the date on which such New Financing Agreement or the
agreement, guarantee, indenture or other instrument amended by a Financing
Agreement Amendment is so modified, supplemented, amended or restated, amend
this Agreement to similarly modify, amend or eliminate such Additional Term so
made a part of this Agreement, provided that in no event will the Lenders and
the Administrative Agent be required to (i) eliminate any Covenant,
representation, warranty, default or event of default which was set forth in
this Agreement on the Effective Date or added to this Agreement pursuant to an
amendment to this Agreement entered into other than pursuant to this Section, or
(ii) modify or amend any Covenant, representation, warranty, default or event of
default which was set forth in this Agreement on the Effective Date or added to
this Agreement pursuant to any amendment to this Agreement entered into other
than pursuant to this Section in a manner such that such Covenant,
representation, warranty, default or event of default is less favorable to the
Lenders or the Administrative Agent than such Covenant, representation,
warranty, default or event of default was on the Effective Date or the date the
same was added to this Agreement pursuant to such an amendment, as the case may
be.

         As used in this Section, the term "Covenants" shall mean covenants of a
type similar to those set forth in Article V hereof or which customarily are
described as affirmative, negative or financial covenants, but in no event shall
such term encompass (w) agreements of the Borrower in respect of interest rates,
fees, expenses, yield protection, indemnities, collateral, loan

                                       42
<PAGE>

maturities, prepayment premiums, prepayment prohibitions or "call" protection or
conditions precedent, (x) provisions whereby the Borrower waives rights, (y)
provisions of a type comparable to those contained in Article IX or customarily
included in the miscellaneous Section of a credit agreement or similar
instrument, or (z) definitions to the extent such definitions relate to any of
the provisions described in the foregoing clauses (w), (x) and (y).

                  Section 5.20. Investments. Neither the Borrower nor any of its
Subsidiaries shall make Investments in any Person except: (a) Investments in (i)
direct obligations of the United States Government maturing within one year,
(ii) certificates of deposit issued by a commercial bank whose credit is
satisfactory to the Agent, (iii) commercial paper rated A1 or the equivalent
thereof by S&P or P1 or the equivalent thereof by Moody's and in either case
maturing within 6 months after the date of acquisition, (iv) tender bonds the
payment of the principal of and interest on which is fully supported by a letter
of credit issued by a United States bank whose long-term certificates of deposit
are rated at least AA or the equivalent thereof by S&P and Aa or the equivalent
thereof by Moody's, (v) deposits required by government agencies or public
utilities, (b) Investments in existence on the Effective Date, (c) loans,
advances or other Investments to or in Guarantors; (e) non-cash loans consisting
of the deferred purchase price for acquisition of Capital Stock of the Borrower
by employees pursuant to the 2001 Stock Plan dated on or about the Effective
Date; and (e) other Investments which, in the aggregate since the Effective
Date, do not exceed $1,000,000; provided, however, immediately after giving
effect to the making of any Investment, no Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing.

                  Section 5.21. Guaranty of and Collateral Granted by the
Subsidiaries.

         (a)      The Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and
each Lender notice that a Person has become a Subsidiary within 10 Business Days
after the day on which such Person became a Subsidiary. The Borrower shall cause
any Person which becomes a Subsidiary after the Effective Date to become a party
to, and agree to be bound by the terms of, the Guaranty and the Security
Agreement, and, it will also execute and deliver (i) if it owns stock in any
other Subsidiary, a Pledge Agreement, and (ii) if it owns any Fee Property or
leases any Leasehold Property, a Mortgage on each such Property (subject, as to
Leasehold Properties, to the proviso contained in the definition of Mortgage),
and deliver the Real Estate Collateral Documents reasonably required by the Term
Collateral Agent, together with local counsel opinions reasonably satisfactory
to the Term Collateral Agent pertaining to the Mortgages, in each case pursuant
to an instrument in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent within
60 days after the day on which such Person became a Subsidiary.

         (b)      Together with the instruments referred to in Section 5.21(a),
the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an opinion of counsel to
such Subsidiary substantially in the form of the opinion delivered pursuant to
Section 3.01(c) (to the extent such opinion includes opinions applicable to the
Guarantors), modified appropriately to refer to such Subsidiary, and the items
specified in Section 3.01(e) (to the extent such items relate to the Guarantors)
for such Subsidiary.

                                       43
<PAGE>

         (c)      Once any Person becomes a Subsidiary and therefore becomes a
party to the Guaranty in accordance with Section 5.21(a), such Person thereafter
shall remain a party to the Guaranty without regard to whether it thereafter
ceases to be a Subsidiary.

         (d)      If (i) the Borrower and/or any Subsidiary sells all of the
equity interests owned by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in any Guarantor,
(ii) immediately before and after giving effect to such sale no Default or Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and (iii) the Borrower shall
have delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders notice of such sale,
then the Administrative Agent shall release promptly such Guarantor from the
Guaranty and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party.

                  Section 5.22. Subordinated Debt.

                  The Borrower shall not (i) amend the terms of any of the New
Subordinated Debt Documents in a manner adverse to the Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent or the Lenders, or (ii) purchase or make any voluntary or
mandatory redemptions or prepayments (whether upon a change of control or
otherwise) with respect to, or any legal or covenant defeasance of, the New
Subordinated Debt, without the consent of the Administrative Agent and the
Required Lenders or (iii) make any payments whatsoever in violation of the
subordination provisions pertaining to the New Subordinated Notes.

exercise any one or all of them at the request of the Required Lenders.

                  Section 6.02. Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent

                                  ARTICLE VII
                                    THE AGENT

                  Section 7.01. Appointment, Powers and Immunities(a) . Each
Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to
act as its agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents with such powers
as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof
and thereof, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental
thereto. The Administrative Agent: (i) shall have no duties or responsibilities
except as expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
and shall not by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document be a
trustee for any Lender; (ii) shall not be responsible to the Lenders for any
recitals, statements, representations or

                                       47
<PAGE>

warranties contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or in any
certificate or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by any
Lender under, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for the validity,
effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or
any other Loan Document or any other document referred to or provided for herein
or therein or for any failure by the Borrower to perform any of its obligations
hereunder or thereunder; (iii) shall not be required to initiate or conduct any
litigation or collection proceedings hereunder or under any other Loan Document
except to the extent requested by the Required Lenders, and then only on terms
and conditions satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and (iv) shall not be
responsible for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or under
any other Loan Document or any other document or instrument referred to or
provided for herein or therein or in connection herewith or therewith, except
for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent may
employ agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible for the
negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it
with reasonable care. The provisions of this Article VII are solely for the
benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and the Borrower shall not
have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof. In
performing its functions and duties under this Agreement and under the other
Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall act solely as agent of the
Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any
obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for the Borrower.
The duties of the Administrative Agent shall be ministerial and administrative
in nature, and the Administrative Agent shall not have by reason of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document a fiduciary relationship in respect of any
Lender.

                  Section 7.02. Reliance by Administrative Agent. The
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any certification, notice or
other communication (including any thereof by telephone, telefax, telegram or
cable) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent
by or on behalf of the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements
of legal counsel, independent accountants or other experts selected by the
Administrative Agent. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall in all
cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder and
thereunder in accordance with instructions signed by the Required Lenders or all
the Lenders where unanimity is required under this Agreement, and such
instructions of the Required Lenders or all the Lenders where unanimity is
required under this Agreement in any action taken or failure to act pursuant
thereto shall be binding on all of the Lenders.

                  Section 7.03. Defaults. The Administrative Agent shall not be
deemed to have knowledge of the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default
(other than the non-payment of principal of or interest on the Loans) unless the
Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower
specifying such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a
"Notice of Default". In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a
notice of the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, the Administrative
Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent
shall give each Lender prompt notice of each non-payment of principal of or
interest on the Loans, whether or not it has received any notice of the
occurrence of such non-payment. The Administrative Agent shall (subject to
Section 9.05) take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default
as shall be directed by the Required Lenders, provided that, unless and until
the Administrative Agent shall

                                       48
<PAGE>

have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be
obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect
to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best
interests of the Lenders.

                  Section 7.04. Rights of Administrative Agent and Its
Affiliates as a Lender. With respect to any Loan made by BNY Asset Solutions LLC
or an Affiliate of BNY Asset Solutions LLC (including, without limitation, The
Bank of New York), such Affiliate and BNY Asset Solutions LLC in their capacity
as a Lender hereunder shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any
other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Affiliate of BNY
Asset Solutions LLC (or in BNY Asset Solutions LLC's case, acting as the
Administrative Agent), and the term Lender or Lenders shall, unless the context
otherwise indicates, include such Affiliate of BNY Asset Solutions LLC in its
individual capacity. Such Affiliate and BNY Asset Solutions LLC may (without
having to account therefor to any Lender) accept deposits from, lend money to
and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with the
Borrower (and any of its Affiliates) as if they were not an Affiliate of the
Administrative Agent or the Administrative Agent, respectively; and such
Affiliate and BNY Asset Solutions LLC may accept fees and other consideration
from the Borrower (in addition to any agency fees and arrangement fees
heretofore agreed to between the Borrower and BNY Asset Solutions LLC) for
services in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or
otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders.

                  Section 7.05. Indemnification. Each Lender severally agrees to
indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Term Collateral Agent, to the extent
the Administrative Agent or the Term Collateral Agent shall not have been
reimbursed by the Borrower, ratably in accordance with its Commitment, for any
and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, counsel fees
and disbursements) or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may
be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or the
Term Collateral Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or
any other Loan Document or any other documents contemplated by or referred to
herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (excluding,
unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the normal
administrative costs and expenses incident to the performance of its agency
duties hereunder or under the other Loan Documents) or the enforcement of any of
the terms hereof or thereof or any such other documents; provided, however, that
no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from
the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or the
Term Collateral Agent. If any indemnity furnished to the Administrative Agent or
the Term Collateral Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of the
Administrative Agent or the Term Collateral Agent, be insufficient or become
impaired, the Administrative Agent or the Term Collateral Agent may call for
additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified
against until such additional indemnity is furnished.

                  Section 7.06. CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
AND THE TERM COLLATERAL AGENT SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO ANY LENDER,
THE BORROWER OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR ANY PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHICH MAY BE ALLEGED AS A RESULT OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE
OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

                                       49
<PAGE>

                  Section 7.07. Payee of Note Treated as Owner. The
Administrative Agent may deem and treat each Person in whose name a Loan is
registered as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until a
written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof shall have been filed with
the Administrative Agent and the provisions of Section 9.07(c) have been
satisfied. Any requests, authority or consent of any Person who at the time of
making such request or giving such authority or consent is the holder of any
Note shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, transferee or
assignee of that Note or of any Note or Notes issued in exchange therefor or
replacement thereof.

                  Section 7.08. Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent, Term
Collateral Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender agrees that it has,
independently and without reliance on the Administrative Agent, the Term
Collateral Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of the
Borrower and decision to enter into this Agreement and that it will,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Term
Collateral 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
analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement or
any of the other Loan Documents. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Term
Collateral Agent shall not be required to keep itself (or any Lender) informed
as to the performance or observance by the Borrower of this Agreement or any of
the other Loan Documents or any other document referred to or provided for
herein or therein or to inspect the properties or books of the Borrower or any
other Person. Except for notices, reports and other documents and information
expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent or
the Term Collateral Agent hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, neither
the Administrative Agent nor the Term Collateral Agent shall have any duty or
responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information
concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of the Borrower or any
other Person (or any of their Affiliates) which may come into the possession of
the Administrative Agent or the Term Collateral Agent.

                  Section 7.09. Failure to Act. Except for action expressly
required of the Administrative Agent or the Term Collateral Agent hereunder or
under the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent and the Term Collateral
Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act
hereunder and thereunder unless it shall receive further assurances to its
satisfaction by the Lenders of their indemnification obligations under Section
7.05 against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by the
Administrative Agent or the Term Collateral Agent by reason of taking,
continuing to take, or failing to take any such action.

                  Section 7.10. Resignation or Removal of Administrative Agent
and Term Collateral Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a
successor Administrative Agent and Term Collateral Agent as provided below, the
Administrative Agent and Term Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving
notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and
the Term Collateral Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by
the Required Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders
shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent and Term
Collateral Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent and Term Collateral Agent
shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted
such appointment within 30

                                       50
<PAGE>

days after the retiring Administrative Agent's notice of resignation or the
Required Lenders' removal of the retiring Administrative Agent and Term
Collateral Agent, then the retiring Administrative Agent and Term Collateral
Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent
and Term Collateral Agent. Any successor Administrative Agent and Term
Collateral Agent shall be a bank or other entity which has a combined capital
and surplus of at least $500,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as
Administrative Agent and Term Collateral Agent hereunder by a successor
Administrative Agent and Term Collateral Agent, such successor Administrative
Agent and Term Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested
with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring
Administrative Agent and Term Collateral Agent, and the retiring Administrative
Agent and Term Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and
obligations hereunder. After any retiring Administrative Agent's and Term
Collateral Agent's resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent and
Term Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Article VII shall continue in
effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by
it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent and Term Collateral Agent
hereunder.

                                  ARTICLE VIII
                      CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES; COMPENSATION

                  Section 8.01. Basis for Determining Interest Rate Inadequate
or Unfair. If on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period in respect of
any Euro-Dollar Loan:

         (a)      the Administrative Agent determines that deposits in Dollars
(in the applicable amounts) are not being offered in the relevant market for
such Interest Period, or

         (b)      the Required Lenders advise the Administrative Agent that the
London Interbank Offered Rate as determined by the Administrative Agent will not
adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding the
Euro-Dollar Loans for such Interest Period,

the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower and
the Lenders, whereupon until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that
the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the
obligations of the Lenders to make the Euro-Dollar Loans specified in such
notice shall be suspended. Unless the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent
at least 2 Business Days before the date of any Borrowing of Euro-Dollar Loans
for which a Notice of Borrowing has previously been given that it elects not to
borrow on such date, such Borrowing shall instead be made as a Base Rate
Borrowing.

                  Section 8.02. Illegality. If, after the date hereof, the
adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in any
existing or future law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation
or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or
comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof (any
such authority, bank or agency being referred to as an "Authority" and any such
event being referred to as a "Change of Law"), or compliance by any Lender (or
its Lending Office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the
force of law) of any Authority shall make it unlawful or impossible for any
Lender (or its Lending Office) to make, maintain or fund its Euro-Dollar Loans
and such Lender shall so notify the Administrative Agent, the Administrative
Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the other Lenders and the Borrower,
whereupon until such

                                       51
<PAGE>

Lender notifies the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that the circumstances
giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of such Lender to
make Euro-Dollar Loans shall be suspended. Before giving any notice to the
Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section, such Lender shall designate a
different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for giving such
notice and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise
disadvantageous to such Lender. If such Lender shall determine that it may not
lawfully continue to maintain and fund any of its outstanding Euro-Dollar Loans
to maturity and shall so specify in such notice, the Borrower shall, on the
later of (i) the date such notice is received by the Borrower and (ii) the date
such Change of Law becomes applicable, prepay in full the then outstanding
principal amount of each Euro-Dollar Loan of such Lender, together with accrued
interest thereon and any amount due such Lender pursuant to Section 8.05(a).
Concurrently with prepaying each such Euro-Dollar Loan, the Borrower shall
borrow a Base Rate Loan in an equal principal amount from such Lender (on which
interest and principal shall be payable contemporaneously with the related
Euro-Dollar Loans of the other Lenders), and such Lender shall make such a Base
Rate Loan.

                  Section 8.03. Increased Cost and Reduced Return.

         (a)      If after the Effective Date, a Change of Law or compliance by
any Lender (or its Lending Office) with any request or directive (whether or not
having the force of law) of any Authority:

                  (i)      shall subject any Lender (or its Lending Office) to
         any tax, duty or other charge with respect to its Euro-Dollar Loans,
         its Notes or its obligation to make Euro-Dollar Loans, or shall change
         the basis of taxation of payments to any Lender (or its Lending Office)
         of the principal of or interest on its Euro-Dollar Loans or any other
         amounts due under this Agreement in respect of its Euro-Dollar Loans or
         its obligation to make Euro-Dollar Loans (other than any changes in
         respect of (i) Taxes and (ii) taxes imposed on, or measured by, the net
         income or overall gross receipts or franchise taxes of such Lender by
         the jurisdiction in which such Lender has its principal office or in
         which the applicable Lending Office for such Euro-dollar Loan is
         located or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof, or by
         any other jurisdiction or any political subdivision or taxing authority
         thereof (other than a jurisdiction in which such Lender would not be
         subject to tax but for the execution and performance of this
         Agreement)); or

                  (ii)     shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve,
         special deposit or similar requirement (including, without limitation,
         any such requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal
         Reserve System, but excluding with respect to any Euro-Dollar Loan any
         such requirement included in an applicable Euro-Dollar Reserve
         Percentage) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or
         credit extended by, any Lender (or its Lending Office); or

                  (iii)    shall impose on any Lender (or its Lending Office) or
         on the United States market for certificates of deposit or the London
         interbank market any other condition affecting its Euro-Dollar Loans,
         its Notes or its obligation to make Euro-Dollar Loans;

                                       52
<PAGE>

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender
(or its Lending Office) of making or maintaining any Euro-Dollar Loan, or to
reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender (or its
Lending Office) under this Agreement or under its Notes with respect thereto, by
an amount reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material, then, within 15 days
after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the
Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction.

         (b)      If any Lender shall have determined that after the Effective
Date the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital
adequacy, or any change in any existing or future law, rule or regulation, or
any change in the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any
Lender (or its Lending Office) with any request or directive regarding capital
adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any Authority, has or would
have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's capital as a
consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender
could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into
consideration such Lender's policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an
amount reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time,
within 15 days after demand by such Lender, the Borrower shall pay to such
Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such
reduction.

         (c)      Each Lender shall notify the Borrower of any event occurring
after the Effective Date entitling such Lender to compensation under this
Section as promptly as practicable, but in any event within 45 days, after the
officer of such Lender responsible for the business relationship of the Lender
with the Borrower obtains actual knowledge thereof; provided that (i) if any
Lender fails to give such notice within 45 days after such officer obtains
actual knowledge of such an event, such Lender shall with respect to
compensation payable pursuant to this Section in respect of any costs resulting
from such event, only be entitled to payment under this Section for costs
incurred from and after the date 45 days prior to the date that such Lender does
give such notice and (ii) each Lender will designate a different Lending Office
for the Loans of such Lender affected by such event if such designation will
avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in
the sole opinion of such Lender, be disadvantageous to such Lender or contrary
to its general lending policies. Each Lender will furnish to the Borrower a
certificate setting forth the basis and amount of each request by such Lender
for compensation under this Section, accompanied by a statement of an officer of
such Lender certifying that such request for compensation is being made pursuant
to a policy adopted by such Lender to seek such compensation generally from
customers similar to the Borrower.

         (d)      The provisions of this Section 8.03 shall be applicable with
respect to any Participant, Assignee or other Transferee.

                  Section 8.04. Base Rate Loans Substituted for Euro-Dollar
Loans. If (i) the obligation of any Lender to make or maintain Euro-Dollar Loans
has been suspended pursuant to Section 8.02 or (ii) any Lender has demanded
compensation under Section 8.03, and the Borrower shall, by at least 5 Business
Days' prior notice to such Lender through the Administrative Agent, have elected
that the provisions of this Section shall apply to such Lender, then, unless and
until such Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to
such suspension or demand for compensation no longer apply:

                                       53
<PAGE>

         (a)      all Loans which would otherwise be made by such Lender as
Euro-Dollar Loans shall be made instead as Base Rate Loans (in which case
interest and principal on such Loans shall be payable contemporaneously with the
related Euro-Dollar Loans of the other Lenders), and

         (b)      after each of its Euro-Dollar Loans has been repaid, all
payments of principal which would otherwise be applied to repay such Euro-Dollar
Loans shall be applied to repay its Base Rate Loans instead.

In the event that the Borrower shall elect that the provisions of this Section
shall apply to any Lender, the Borrower shall remain liable for, and shall pay
to such Lender as provided herein, all amounts due such Lender under Section
8.03 in respect of the period preceding the date of conversion of such Lender's
Loans resulting from the Borrower's election.

                  Section 8.05. Compensation. Upon the request of any Lender,
delivered to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall pay
to such Lender such amount or amounts as shall compensate such Lender for any
loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of:

         (a)      any payment or prepayment (pursuant to Section 2.07, Section
2.08, Section 8.02 or otherwise) of a Euro-Dollar Loan on a date other than the
last day of an Interest Period for such Euro-Dollar Loan;

         (b)      any failure by the Borrower to prepay a Euro-Dollar Loan on
the date for such prepayment specified in the relevant notice of prepayment
hereunder; or

         (c)      any failure by the Borrower to borrow a Euro-Dollar Loan on
the date for the Euro-Dollar Borrowing of which such Euro-Dollar Loan is a part
specified in the applicable Notice of Continuation or Conversion delivered
pursuant to Section 2.01(a);

such compensation to include, without limitation, an amount equal to the excess,
if any, of (x) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the amount so
paid or prepaid or not prepaid or borrowed for the period from the date of such
payment, prepayment or failure to prepay or borrow to the last day of the then
current Interest Period for such Euro-Dollar Loan (or, in the case of a failure
to prepay or borrow, the Interest Period for such Euro-Dollar Loan which would
have commenced on the date of such failure to prepay or borrow) at the
applicable rate of interest for such Euro-Dollar Loan provided for herein
(excluding, however, for purposes of this Section only the Applicable Margin in
determining such rate of interest or, if the applicable rate of interest is
7.75% pursuant to Section 2.04(b)(y) or 2.04(c)(y), the amount by which 7.75%
exceeds the rate which would have been applicable but for the application of
Section 2.04(b)(y) or 2.04(c)(y), less the Applicable Margin) over (y) the
amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) such Lender would
have paid on deposits in Dollars of comparable amounts having terms comparable
to such period placed with it by leading banks in the London interbank market.

                  Section 8.06. Replacement of Lender. In the event that any
Lender gives any notice under Section 8.02 resulting in the suspension of its
obligation to make Euro-Dollar Loans or requests compensation pursuant to
Section 8.03, then, so long as the condition giving

                                       54
<PAGE>

rise to such suspension or compensation exists, the Borrower may designate
another bank or financial institution (such bank or financial institution being
herein called a "Replacement Lender") acceptable to the Administrative Agent
(which acceptance will not be unreasonably withheld) and which is not an
Affiliate of the Borrower, to assume such Lender's Commitment hereunder and to
purchase the Loans of such Lender and such Lender's rights under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents held by such Lender, all without recourse to or
representation or warranty by, or expense to, such Lender, for a purchase price
equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loans payable to such Lender
plus any accrued but unpaid interest on such Loans and accrued but unpaid fees
owing to such Lender plus any amounts payable to such Lender under Section 8.05
or otherwise owing to such Lender under the Loan Documents, and upon such
assumption, purchase and substitution, and subject to the execution and delivery
to the Administrative Agent by the Replacement Lender of documentation
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (pursuant to which such Replacement
Lender shall assume the obligations of such original Lender under this
Agreement), the Replacement Lender shall succeed to the rights and obligations
of such Lender hereunder. In the event that the Borrower exercises its rights
under the preceding sentence, the Lender against which such rights were
exercised shall no longer be a party hereto or have any rights or obligations
hereunder; provided that the obligations of the Borrower to such Lender under
Article VIII and Section 9.03 with respect to events occurring or obligations
arising before or as a result of such replacement shall survive such exercise.

                                   ARTICLE IX
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

                  Section 9.01. Notices. All notices, requests and other
communications to any party hereunder shall be in writing (including facsimile
transmission or similar writing) and shall be given to such party at its address
or telecopy number set forth on the signature pages hereof, in an applicable
Assignment and Acceptance or such other address or telecopy number as such party
may hereafter specify for the purpose by notice to each other party. Each such
notice, request or other communication shall be effective (i) if given by
telecopier, when such telecopy is transmitted to the telecopy number specified
in this Section and the telecopy machine used by the sender provides a written
confirmation that such telecopy has been so transmitted or receipt of such
telecopy transmission is otherwise confirmed, (ii) if given by U.S. mail, 72
hours after such communication is deposited in the U.S. mails with first class
postage prepaid, addressed as aforesaid, and (iii) if given by any other means,
when delivered at the address specified in this Section; provided that notices
to the Administrative Agent under Article II or Article VIII shall not be
effective until received.

                  Section 9.02. No Waivers. No failure or delay by the
Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege
hereunder or under any Note or other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver
thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.
The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of
any rights or remedies provided by law.

                                       55

                  Section 9.03. Expenses; Documentary Taxes; Indemnification.

         (a)      The Borrower shall pay (i) all out-of-pocket expenses of the
Administrative Agent and the Term Collateral Agent, including fees and
disbursements of special counsel for the Administrative Agent and the Term
Collateral Agent, in connection with the preparation of this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, any waiver or consent hereunder or thereunder or any
amendment hereof or thereof or any Event of Default or alleged Event of Default
hereunder or thereunder and (ii) if a Default occurs and is continuing, all
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Term
Collateral Agent or any Lender, including reasonable fees and disbursements of
counsel, in connection with such Default and collection and other enforcement
proceedings resulting therefrom, including out-of-pocket expenses incurred in
enforcing this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

         (b)      The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the
Term Collateral Agent and each Lender against any transfer taxes, documentary
taxes, stamp taxes, recording fees, assessments or charges made by any Authority
by reason of the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents or the recording of any of the Collateral Documents.

         (c)      The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the
Term Collateral Agent, the Lenders and each Affiliate thereof and their
respective directors, officers, employees and agents from, and hold each of them
harmless against, any and all losses, liabilities, claims or damages to which
any of them may become subject, insofar as such losses, liabilities, claims or
damages arise out of or result from any actual or proposed use by the Borrower
of the proceeds of any extension of credit by any Lender hereunder or breach by
the Borrower of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or from investigation,
litigation (including, without limitation, any actions taken by the
Administrative Agent, the Term Collateral Agent or any of the Lenders to enforce
this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents) or other proceeding
(including, without limitation, any threatened investigation or proceeding)
relating to the foregoing, and the Borrower shall reimburse the Administrative
Agent, the Term Collateral Agent and each Lender, and each Affiliate thereof and
their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, upon demand for any
expenses (including, without limitation, legal fees) incurred in connection with
any such investigation or proceeding; but excluding any such losses,
liabilities, claims, damages or expenses incurred by reason of the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of the Person to be indemnified.

                  Section 9.04. Setoffs; Sharing of Set-Offs.

         (a)      The Borrower hereby grants to each Lender, as security for the
full and punctual payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower
under this Agreement, a continuing lien on and security interest in all deposits
and other sums credited by or due from such Lender to the Borrower or subject to
withdrawal by the Borrower; and regardless of the adequacy of any collateral or
other means of obtaining repayment of such obligations, each Lender may at any
time upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, and
without notice to the Borrower, set off the whole or any portion or portions of
any or all such deposits and other sums against such obligations, whether or not
any other Person or Persons could also withdraw money therefrom.

                                       56
<PAGE>

         (b)      Each Lender agrees that if it shall, by exercising any right
of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, receive payment of a proportion of the
aggregate amount of principal and interest owing with respect to the Notes held
by it which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in
respect of the aggregate amount of all principal and interest owing with respect
to the Notes held by such other Lender, the Lender receiving such
proportionately greater payment shall purchase such participations in the Notes
held by the other Lenders owing to such other Lenders, and/or such other
adjustments shall be made, as may be required so that all such payments of
principal and interest with respect to the Notes held by the Lenders owing to
such other Lenders shall be shared by the Lenders pro rata; provided that (i)
nothing in this Section shall impair the right of any Lender to exercise any
right of set-off or counterclaim it may have and to apply the amount subject to
such exercise to the payment of Debt of the Borrower other than its Debt under
the Notes, and (ii) if all or any portion of such payment received by the
purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such
purchase from each other Lender shall be rescinded and such other Lender shall
repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price of such participation to the
extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such other Lender's
ratable share (according to the proportion of (x) the amount of such other
Lender's required repayment to (y) 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 Borrower
agrees, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so under applicable law,
that any holder of a participation in a Note, whether or not acquired pursuant
to the foregoing arrangements, may exercise rights of set-off or counterclaim
and other rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such holder
of a participation were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such
participation.

         (c)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is hereby expressly agreed
that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any Lien on or
security interest in, or right to set-off against, any amount held for the
Borrower by the Administrative Agent's or such Lender's Affiliates in any
corporate custody account or similar account maintained at any Lender in a trust
capacity, as security for or for application to the Loans or other obligations
owing to the Administrative Agent, or such Lender under this Agreement or the
Loan Documents; provided, however, that nothing contained in this paragraph (c)
shall in any way be construed as limiting the ability of any such Affiliate of
the Administrative Agent or any Lender to set-off against the Borrower's
accounts for any amount owing to such Affiliate or such Lender arising other
than under this Agreement and the Loan Documents.

                  Section 9.05. Amendments and Waivers.

         (a)      Any provision of this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan
Documents may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is
in writing and is signed by the Borrower and the Required Lenders (and, if the
rights or duties of the Administrative Agent are affected thereby, by the
Administrative Agent); provided that no such amendment or waiver shall, unless
signed by all the Lenders, (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender or subject
any Lender to any additional obligation (provided that an Assignment and
Acceptance executed in connection with an assignment effected pursuant to, and
in compliance with, Section 9.07(c) shall not be deemed to be a violation of
this clause (i)), (ii) reduce the principal of or rate of interest on any Loan
or any fees hereunder, (iii) extend the date fixed for any payment of principal
of or interest on any Loan or any fees hereunder, (iv) reduce the amount of
principal,

                                       57
<PAGE>

interest or fees due on any date fixed for the payment thereof; provided, that
the Required Lenders can waive or rescind the application of the Default Rate
under this Agreement, (v) change the percentage of the Commitments or of the
aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Notes, or the percentage of Lenders,
which shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action under
this Section or any other provision of this Agreement, (vi) change the manner of
application of any payments made under this Agreement or the Notes, (vii) change
this Section 9.05(a), (viii) change the definition of "Required Lenders", (ix)
release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty (other than any
release of a Guarantor pursuant to Section 5.21(d)) or (x) release any
Collateral (other than any release of Collateral pursuant to Section 5.10 or
pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement).

         (b)      The Borrower will not solicit, request or negotiate for or
with respect to any proposed waiver or amendment of any of the provisions of
this Agreement from or with any Lender, except on terms fully disclosed to the
Administrative Agent (which terms the Administrative Agent shall be authorized
to disclose to the Lenders). Executed or true and correct copies of any waiver
or consent effected pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shall be
delivered by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent (for delivery to each
Lender) forthwith following the date on which the same shall have been executed
and delivered by the requisite percentage of Lenders. The Borrower will not,
directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any remuneration, whether by way
of supplemental or additional interest, fee or otherwise, to any Lender (in its
capacity as such) as consideration for or as an inducement to the entering into
by such Lender of any waiver or amendment of any of the terms and provisions of
this Agreement unless such remuneration is concurrently paid, on the same terms,
ratably to all such Lenders.

                  Section 9.06. Margin Stock Collateral

         Each of the Lenders represents to the Administrative Agent and each of
the other Lenders that it in good faith is not, directly or indirectly (by
negative pledge or otherwise), relying upon any Margin Stock as collateral in
the extension or maintenance of the credit provided for in this Agreement.

                  Section 9.07. Successors and Assigns.

         (a)      The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns; provided that, except as provided in paragraph (g) of this Section, the
Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights under this
Agreement.

         (b)      Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more Persons (each a
"Participant") participating interests in any Loan owing to such Lender, any
Note held by such Lender, any Commitment hereunder or any other interest of such
Lender hereunder. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of a participating
interest to a Participant, such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall
remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the
performance thereof, such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Note for
all purposes under this Agreement, and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with
such Lender's rights and obligations

                                       58
<PAGE>

under this Agreement. In no event shall a Lender that sells a participation be
obligated to the Participant to take or refrain from taking any action hereunder
except that such Lender may agree that it will not (except as provided below),
without the consent of the Participant, agree to (i) the extension of any date
fixed for the payment of principal of or interest on the related Loan or Loans,
(ii) the decrease of the amount of any principal, interest or fees due on any
date fixed for the payment thereof with respect to the related Loan or Loans,
(iii) the reduction of the principal of the related Loan or Loans, or (iv) any
decrease in the rate at which interest is payable thereon from the rate at which
the Participant is entitled to receive interest in respect of such
participation. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to
the benefits of Article VIII with respect to its participation in Loans
outstanding from time to time, subject to the provisions of Section 9.07(e).

         (c)      Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more banks or
financial institutions (each an "Assignee") all, or a proportionate part of all,
of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan
Documents, and such Assignee shall assume all such rights and obligations,
pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance substantially in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit B, executed by such Assignee, such transferor Lender and the
Administrative Agent; provided that

                  (i)      no interest may be sold by a Lender pursuant to this
         paragraph (c) unless the Assignee shall agree to assume ratably
         equivalent portions of the transferor Lender's Commitment (provided
         that the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may waive the
         requirement contained in this clause (i)),

                  (ii)     no interest may be sold by a Lender pursuant to this
         paragraph (c) to any Assignee that is not then a Lender, an Affiliate
         of a Lender or a Related Fund of any Lender if (x) the Borrower makes a
         reasonable determination that it is materially more likely that the
         proposed Assignee will be entitled to compensation, or to a greater
         amount of compensation, than the transferor Lender, or (y) the proposed
         Assignee is a competitor, or an Affiliate of a competitor, of the
         Borrower or any Subsidiary), and

                  (iii)    the minimum amount of any Commitment, and the minimum
         aggregate principal amount of Loans, that may be so assigned by any
         transferor Lender shall be $5,000,000 (provided that (1) a Lender may
         assign all of its Commitment and its Loans even if the amount of its
         Commitment and the aggregate principal amount of its Loans is less than
         $5,000,000, (2) the Administrative Agent may waive the requirement
         contained in this clause (iii) without the consent of any Lender, and
         (3) if the proposed assignment is to be made to a then existing Lender,
         an Affiliate of a Lender or a Related Fund of any Lender, the minimum
         amount of any Commitment, and the minimum aggregate principal amount of
         Loans, so assigned shall be only $1,000,000).

Upon (A) execution of the Assignment and Acceptance by such transferor Lender,
such Assignee, the Administrative Agent, (B) delivery of an executed copy of the
Assignment and Acceptance to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, (C)
payment by such Assignee to such transferor Lender of an amount equal to the
purchase price agreed between such transferor Lender and such Assignee, (D)
payment by such transferor Lender to the Administrative Agent of a processing
and recordation fee of $500, if the Assignee is an Agent or a Lender, an
Affiliate

                                       59
<PAGE>

of a Lender or a Related Fund of any Lender, or $3,500 in any other case, and
(E) recordation of such assignment on the Register, as defined and provided
below, such Assignee shall for all purposes be a Lender party to this Agreement
and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement
to the same extent as if it were an original party hereto with a Commitment as
set forth in such instrument of assumption, and the transferor Lender shall be
released from its obligations hereunder to a corresponding extent, and no
further consent or action by the Borrower, the Lenders or the Administrative
Agent shall be required. The Borrower hereby designates the Administrative Agent
to serve as the Borrower's agent, solely for purposes of this Section 9.07(c),
to maintain a register (the "Register") on which it will record the Commitments
from time to time of each of the Lenders, the Loans made by each of the Lenders
and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans of each
Lender. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation
shall not affect the Borrower's obligations in respect of such Loans. With
respect to any Lenders, the transfer of any Commitment of such Lenders and the
rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan shall not be effective
until such transfer is recorded on the Register maintained by the Administrative
Agent with respect to ownership of such Commitment and Loans and prior to such
recordation all amounts owing to the transferor with respect to such Commitment
and Loans shall remain owing to the transferor. The registration of assignment
or transfer of all or part of any Commitment and Loans shall be recorded by the
Administrative Agent on the Register only upon the acceptance by the
Administrative Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment and
Acceptance pursuant to this Section 9.07(c). Coincident with the delivery of
such an Assignment and Acceptance to the Administrative Agent for acceptance and
registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of a Commitment and/or
Loan, or as soon thereafter as practicable, the assigning or transferor Lender
shall surrender the Note evidencing such Commitment and/or Loan, and thereupon
one or more new Notes in the aggregate principal amount so assigned shall be
issued to the new Lender and, if applicable, a new Note shall be issued to the
assigning or transferor Lender in the remaining aggregate principal amount of
its Commitment and/or Loan not so assigned. The Borrower agrees to indemnify the
Administrative Agent from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and
liabilities of whatsoever nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or
incurred by the Administrative Agent in performing its duties under this Section
9.07(c); but excluding any such losses, claims, damages and liabilities incurred
by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative
Agent. Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities of
whatsoever nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by the
Borrower or the Administrative Agent by reason of the inaccuracy of any
information which is furnished by such Lender concerning such Lender or its
Lending Office or the amount assigned pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance
Agreement.

         (d)      Subject to the provisions of Section 9.08, the Borrower
authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Participant, Assignee or other
transferee of such Lender (each a "Transferee") and any prospective Transferee
any and all financial and other information in such Lender's possession
concerning the Borrower which has been delivered to such Lender by the Borrower
pursuant to this Agreement or which has been delivered to such Lender by the
Borrower in connection with such Lender's credit evaluation prior to entering
into this Agreement.

                                       60
<PAGE>

         (e)      No Transferee shall be entitled to receive any greater payment
under Section 8.03 than the transferor Lender would have been entitled to
receive with respect to the rights transferred, unless such transfer is made
with the Borrower's prior written consent or by reason of the provisions of
Section 8.02 or 8.03 requiring such Lender to designate a different Lending
Office under certain circumstances or at a time when the circumstances giving
rise to such greater payment did not exist.

         (f)      Anything in this Section 9.07 to the contrary notwithstanding,
any Lender may assign and pledge all or any portion of the Loans and/or
obligations owing to it to any Federal Reserve Bank or the United States
Treasury as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System and Operating Circular issued by such
Federal Reserve Bank, provided that any payment in respect of such assigned
Loans and/or obligations made by the Borrower to the assigning and/or pledging
Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall satisfy the
Borrower's obligations hereunder in respect of such assigned Loans and/or
obligations to the extent of such payment. No such assignment shall release the
assigning and/or pledging Lender from its obligations hereunder.

                  Section 9.08. Confidentiality. Each Lender agrees to exercise
its best efforts to keep any information delivered or made available by the
Borrower to it which such Lender knows to be or which is clearly indicated to be
confidential information, confidential from anyone other than persons employed
or retained by such Lender who are or are expected to become engaged in
evaluating, approving, structuring or administering the Loans; provided,
however, that nothing herein shall prevent any Lender from disclosing such
information (i) to any other Lender, (ii) upon the order of any court or
administrative agency, (iii) to any regulatory agency or authority having
jurisdiction over such Lender, upon the request or demand of such regulatory
agency or authority, (iv) which has been publicly disclosed (unless such Lender
knows such disclosure was made by a Person in violation of a confidentiality
agreement with or confidentiality obligation to the Borrower or any Subsidiary),
(v) to the extent reasonably required in connection with any litigation to which
the Administrative Agent, any Lender or their respective Affiliates may be a
party, (vi) to the extent reasonably required in connection with the exercise of
any remedy hereunder, (vii) to such Lender's legal counsel and independent
auditors and (viii) to any actual or proposed Participant, Assignee or other
Transferee of all or part of its rights hereunder which has agreed in writing to
be bound by the provisions of this Section 9.08.

                  Section 9.09. Representation by Lenders

         Each Lender hereby represents that it is a commercial lender or
financial institution which makes or invests in loans in the ordinary course of
its business and that it will make its Loans hereunder for its own account in
the ordinary course of such business; provided, however, that, subject to
Section 9.07, the disposition of the Note or Notes held by that Lender shall at
all times be within its exclusive control.

                  Section 9.10. Obligations Several. The obligations of each
Lender hereunder are several, and no Lender shall be responsible for the
obligations or commitment of any other Lender hereunder. Nothing contained in
this Agreement and no action taken by the Lenders pursuant hereto shall be
deemed to constitute the Lenders to be a partnership, an association, a joint
venture or any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at any time hereunder
to each

                                       61

Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and each Lender shall, subject
to Article VI, be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document and it shall not be necessary for any other
Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

                  Section 9.11. Survival of Certain Obligations. Sections
8.03(a), 8.03(b), 8.05 and 9.03 of this Agreement and the obligations of the
Borrower thereunder shall, without duplication, survive and continue to be
enforceable notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement and the
Commitments and the payment in full of the principal of and interest on all
Loans.

                  Section 9.12. New York Law. This Agreement and each Note shall
be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New
York.

                  Section 9.13. Severability. In case any one or more of the
provisions contained in this Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Loan
Documents should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the
validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained
herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and
shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by law.

                  Section 9.14. Interest. In no event shall the amount of
interest due or payable hereunder or under the Notes exceed the maximum rate of
interest allowed by applicable law, and in the event any such payment is
inadvertently made to any Lender by the Borrower or inadvertently received by
any Lender, then such excess sum shall be credited as a payment of principal,
unless the Borrower shall notify such Lender in writing that it elects to have
such excess sum returned forthwith. It is the express intent hereof that the
Borrower not pay and the Lenders not receive, directly or indirectly in any
manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may legally be paid by the
Borrower under applicable law.

                  Section 9.15. Interpretation. No provision of this Agreement
or any of the other Loan Documents shall be construed against or interpreted to
the disadvantage of any party hereto by any court or other governmental or
judicial authority by reason of such party having or being deemed to have
structured or dictated such provision.

                  Section 9.16. Consent to Jurisdiction. The Borrower (a)
submits to personal jurisdiction in the State of New York, the courts thereof
and the United States District Courts sitting therein, for the enforcement of
this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents, (b) waives any and all
personal rights under the law of any jurisdiction to object on any basis
(including, without limitation, inconvenience of forum) to jurisdiction or venue
within the State of New York for the purpose of litigation to enforce this
Agreement, the Notes or the other Loan Documents, and (c) agrees that service of
process may be made upon it in the manner prescribed in Section 9.01 for the
giving of notice to the Borrower. Nothing herein contained, however, shall
prevent the Administrative Agent from bringing any action or exercising any
rights against any security and against the Borrower personally, and against any
assets of the Borrower, within any other state or jurisdiction.

                  WHEREAS, Borrowers have requested that Lenders extend
revolving credit facilities to Borrowers of up to Fifty Million Dollars
($50,000,000) in the aggregate for the purpose of refinancing certain
indebtedness of Borrowers and to provide (a) working capital financing for
Borrowers, (b) funds for other general corporate purposes of Borrowers and (c)
funds for other purposes permitted hereunder; and for these purposes, Lenders
are willing to make certain loans and other extensions of credit to Borrowers of
up to such amount upon the terms and conditions set forth herein; and

                  WHEREAS, Borrowers have agreed to secure all of their
obligations under the Loan Documents by granting to Agent, for the benefit of
Agent and Lenders, a security interest in and lien upon all of their existing
and after-acquired personal and real property; and

                  WHEREAS, capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have
the meanings ascribed to them in Annex A and, for purposes of this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents, the rules of construction set forth in Annex A shall
govern. All Annexes, Disclosure Schedules, Exhibits and other attachments
(collectively, "Appendices") hereto, or expressly identified to this Agreement,
are incorporated herein by reference, and taken together with this Agreement,
shall constitute but a single agreement. These Recitals shall be construed as
part of the Agreement.

                  NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the
mutual covenants hereinafter contained, and for other good and valuable
consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.       AMOUNT AND TERMS OF CREDIT

         1.1      Credit Facilities.

         (a)      Revolving Credit Facility.

                  (i)      Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each
Revolving Lender agrees to make available to Borrowers from time to time until
the Commitment Termination Date its Pro Rata Share of advances (each, a
"Revolving Credit Advance"). The Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loan of any
Revolving Lender shall not at any time exceed its separate Revolving Loan
Commitment. The obligations of each Revolving Lender hereunder shall be several
and not joint. Until the Commitment Termination Date, Borrowers may borrow,
repay and reborrow under this Section 1.1(a); provided that the aggregate amount
of all Revolving Credit Advances to be made at any time shall not exceed the
Revolving Loan Commitments at

                                       7
<PAGE>

such time. Each Revolving Credit Advance shall be made on notice by Borrower
Representative to Agent. Any such notice must be given no later than (1) 11:00
a.m. (New York time) on the Business Day of the proposed Revolving Credit
Advance, in the case of an Index Rate Loan, or (2) 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on
the date which is 3 Business Days prior to the proposed Revolving Credit
Advance, in the case of a LIBOR Loan. Each such notice (a "Notice of Revolving
Credit Advance") must be given in writing (by telecopy or overnight courier)
substantially in the form of Exhibit 1.1(a)(i), and shall include the
information required in such Exhibit and such other information as may be
required by Agent. If any Borrower desires to have the Revolving Credit Advances
bear interest by reference to a LIBOR Rate, Borrower Representative must comply
with Section 1.5(e).

                  (ii)     Except as provided in Section 1.12, each Borrower
shall execute and deliver to each Revolving Lender a note to evidence the
Revolving Loan Commitment of that Revolving Lender. Each note shall be in the
principal amount of the Revolving Loan Commitment of the applicable Revolving
Lender, dated the Closing Date and substantially in the form of Exhibit
1.1(a)(ii) (each a "Revolving Note" and, collectively, the "Revolving Notes").
Each Revolving Note shall represent the obligation of the applicable Borrower to
pay the amount of the applicable Revolving Lender's Revolving Loan Commitment
or, if less, such Revolving Lender's Pro Rata Share of the aggregate unpaid
principal amount of all Revolving Credit Advances to such Borrower together with
interest thereon as prescribed in Section 1.5. The entire unpaid balance of the
aggregate Revolving Loan and all other non-contingent Obligations shall be
immediately due and payable in full in immediately available funds on the
Commitment Termination Date.

         (b)      [Intentionally Omitted].

         (c)      Swing Line Facility.

                  (i)      Agent shall notify the Swing Line Lender upon Agent's
receipt of any Notice of Revolving Credit Advance with respect to an Index Rate
Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender may, in
its discretion, make available from time to time until the Commitment
Termination Date advances (each, a "Swing Line Advance") in accordance with any
such notice. The provisions of this Section 1.1(c) shall not relieve Revolving
Lenders of their obligations to make Revolving Credit Advances under Section
1.1(a); provided that if the Swing Line Lender makes a Swing Line Advance
pursuant to any such notice, such Swing Line Advance shall be in lieu of any
Revolving Credit Advance that otherwise may be made by Revolving Credit Lenders
pursuant to such notice. The aggregate amount of Swing Line Advances outstanding
shall not exceed at any time the lesser of (A) the Swing Line Commitment and (B)
the Maximum Amount, less the outstanding balance of the Revolving Loan at such
time ("Swing Line Availability"). Until the Commitment Termination Date,
Borrowers may from time to time borrow, repay and reborrow under this Section
1.1(c). Each Swing Line Advance shall be made pursuant to a Notice of Revolving
Credit Advance delivered to Agent by Borrower Representative on behalf of the
applicable Borrower in accordance with Section 1.1(a). Any such notice must be
given no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the Business Day of the
proposed Swing Line Advance. Unless the Swing Line Lender has received at least
one Business Day's prior written notice from Requisite Lenders instructing it
not to make a Swing Line Advance, the Swing Line Lender shall, notwithstanding

                                       8
<PAGE>

the failure of any condition precedent set forth in Sections 2.2, be entitled to
fund that Swing Line Advance, and to have each Revolving Lender make Revolving
Credit Advances in accordance with Section 1.1(c)(iii) or purchase participating
interests in accordance with Section 1.1(c)(iv). Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the Swing Line Loan
shall constitute an Index Rate Loan. Borrowers shall repay the aggregate
outstanding principal amount of the Swing Line Loan one (1) Business Day after
demand therefor by Agent.

                  (ii)     Each Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Swing
Line Lender a promissory note to evidence the Swing Line Commitment. Each note
shall be in the principal amount of the Swing Line Commitment of the Swing Line
Lender, dated the Closing Date and substantially in the form of Exhibit
1.1(c)(ii) (each a "Swing Line Note" and, collectively, the "Swing Line Notes").
Each Swing Line Note shall represent the obligation of each Borrower to pay the
amount of the Swing Line Commitment or, if less, the aggregate unpaid principal
amount of all Swing Line Advances made to such Borrower together with interest
thereon as prescribed in Section 1.5. The entire unpaid balance of the Swing
Line Loan and all other noncontingent Obligations shall be immediately due and
payable in full in immediately available funds on the Commitment Termination
Date if not sooner paid in full.

                  (iii)    The Swing Line Lender, at any time and from time to
time in its sole and absolute discretion may on behalf of any Borrower (and each
Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so act on its
behalf) request each Revolving Lender (including the Swing Line Lender) to make
a Revolving Credit Advance to each Borrower (which shall be an Index Rate Loan)
in an amount equal to that Revolving Lender's Pro Rata Share of the principal
amount of the applicable Borrower's Swing Line Loan (the "Refunded Swing Line
Loan") outstanding on the date such notice is given. Unless any of the events
described in Sections 8.1(h) or 8.1(i) has occurred (in which event the
procedures of Section 1.1(c)(iv) shall apply) and regardless of whether the
conditions precedent set forth in this Agreement to the making of a Revolving
Credit Advance are then satisfied, each Revolving Lender shall disburse directly
to Agent, its Pro Rata Share of a Revolving Credit Advance on behalf of the
Swing Line Lender prior to 3:00 p.m. (New York time) in immediately available
funds on the Business Day next succeeding the date that notice is given. The
proceeds of those Revolving Credit Advances shall be immediately paid to the
Swing Line Lender and applied to repay the Refunded Swing Line Loan of the
applicable Borrower.

                  (iv)     If, prior to refunding a Swing Line Loan with a
Revolving Credit Advance pursuant to Section 1.1(c)(iii), one of the events
described in Sections 8.1(h) or 8.1(i) has occurred, then, subject to the
provisions of Section 1.1(c)(v) below, each Revolving Lender shall, on the date
such Revolving Credit Advance was to have been made for the benefit of the
applicable Borrower, purchase from the Swing Line Lender an undivided
participation interest in the Swing Line Loan to such Borrower in an amount
equal to its Pro Rata Share of such Swing Line Loan. Upon request of Agent, each
Revolving Lender shall promptly transfer to the Swing Line Lender, in
immediately available funds, the amount of its participation interest.

                  (v)      Each Revolving Lender's obligation to make Revolving
Credit Advances in accordance with Section 1.1(c)(iii) and to purchase
participation interests in accordance with Section 1.1(c)(iv) shall be absolute
and unconditional and shall not be affected

                                       9
<PAGE>

by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense
or other right that such Revolving Lender may have against the Swing Line
Lender, any Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the
occurrence or continuance of any Default or Event of Default; (C) any inability
of any Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent to borrowing set forth in
this Agreement at any time or (D) any other circumstance, happening or event
whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. If any Revolving
Lender does not make available to Agent or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable,
the amount required pursuant to Sections 1.1(c)(iii) or 1.1(c)(iv), as the case
may be, the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand
from such Revolving Lender, together with interest thereon for each day from the
date of non-payment until such amount is paid in full at the Federal Funds Rate
for the first two Business Days and at the Index Rate thereafter.

                  (d)      Reliance on Notices; Appointment of Borrower
Representative. Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be fully
protected in relying upon, any Notice of Revolving Credit Advance, Notice of
Conversion/Continuation or similar notice believed by Agent to be genuine. Agent
may assume that each Person executing and delivering any notice in accordance
herewith was duly authorized, unless the responsible individual acting thereon
for Agent has actual knowledge to the contrary. Each Borrower hereby designates
Carmike as its representative and agent on its behalf for the purposes of
issuing Notices of Revolving Credit Advances and Notices of
Conversion/Continuation, giving instructions with respect to the disbursement of
the proceeds of the Loans, selecting interest rate options, requesting Letters
of Credit, giving and receiving all other notices and consents hereunder or
under any of the other Loan Documents and taking all other actions (including in
respect of compliance with covenants) on behalf of any Borrower or Borrowers
under the Loan Documents. Borrower Representative hereby accepts such
appointment. Agent and each Lender may regard any notice or other communication
pursuant to any Loan Document from Borrower Representative as a notice or
communication from all Borrowers, and may give any notice or communication
required or permitted to be given to any Borrower or Borrowers hereunder to
Borrower Representative on behalf of such Borrower or Borrowers. Each Borrower
agrees that each notice, election, representation and warranty, covenant,
agreement and undertaking made on its behalf by Borrower Representative shall be
deemed for all purposes to have been made by such Borrower and shall be binding
upon and enforceable against such Borrower to the same extent as if the same had
been made directly by such Borrower.

                  1.2      Letters of Credit. Subject to and in accordance with
the terms and conditions contained herein and in Annex B, Borrower
Representative, on behalf of the applicable Borrower, shall have the right to
request, and Revolving Lenders agree to incur, or purchase participations in,
Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of each Borrower.

                  1.3      Prepayments.

                  (a)      Voluntary Termination; Reduction. In addition,
Borrowers may at any time on at least 10 days' prior written notice by Borrower
Representative to Agent terminate in whole or part ratably the unused portions
of the respective Commitments of the Lenders; provided that each partial
reduction shall be in the aggregate amount of not less than $5,000,000 or an
integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, and provided that upon such
termination, all Loans and other Obligations shall be immediately due and
payable in full and all Letter of

                                       10
<PAGE>

Credit Obligations shall be cash collateralized or otherwise satisfied in
accordance with Annex B. Any such voluntary reduction and any such termination
of the Revolving Loan Commitment must be accompanied by the payment of any
applicable LIBOR funding breakage costs in accordance with Section 1.13(b). Upon
any such termination of the Revolving Loan Commitment, each Borrower's right to
request Revolving Credit Advances, or request that Letter of Credit Obligations
be incurred on its behalf, or request Swing Line Advances, shall simultaneously
be terminated.

                  (b)      Mandatory Prepayments. If at any time the aggregate
outstanding balances of the Revolving Loan and the Swing Line Loan exceed the
Maximum Amount, Borrowers shall immediately repay the aggregate outstanding
Revolving Credit Advances to the extent required to eliminate such excess. If
any such excess remains after repayment in full of the aggregate outstanding
Revolving Credit Advances, Borrowers shall provide cash collateral for the
Letter of Credit Obligations in the manner set forth in Annex B to the extent
required to eliminate such excess.

                           (i)      [Intentionally Omitted].

                           (ii)     (A) Borrowers shall prepay the Loans in an
amount equal to all proceeds of any asset disposition of any Credit Party
(excluding proceeds of asset dispositions permitted by Section 6.8(a)) or any
issuance of Stock, net of (1) commissions and other reasonable and customary
transaction costs, fees (including brokers' fees) and expenses properly
attributable to such transaction and payable by Credit Parties in connection
therewith (in each case, paid to non-Affiliates), (2) transfer taxes, (3)
amounts payable to holders of senior Liens (to the extent such Liens constitute
Permitted Encumbrances hereunder), if any, (4) an appropriate reserve for income
taxes in accordance with GAAP in connection therewith, and (5) with respect to
proceeds received in connection with the issuance by any Credit Party of Stock,
twenty million dollars ($20,000,000); provided, that, Borrowers shall not be
required to make such prepayments to the extent (A) all such proceeds of any
asset disposition are reinvested by one or more Credit Parties in a manner
acceptable to Agent, in its sole discretion, within 180 days of receipt by any
Credit Party of such proceeds (Borrowers acknowledge that no prepayment of
obligations under the Post-Confirmation Credit Agreement shall be deemed a
reinvestment of such proceeds), and (B) no Default or Event of Default exists
from and including the date of such disposition through and including the date
of such reinvestment; provided, further, that so long as no Default or Event of
Default exists at the time of any asset disposition relating to Real Estate
identified as surplus property on Disclosure Schedule 1.3(b), Borrowers shall
not be required to apply the proceeds of such disposition, except for those
proceeds which exceed, in the aggregate with respect to all such dispositions,
the lesser of (I) $18,000,000 or (II) five percent (5%) of the net book value of
all plant, property and equipment of the Credit Parties as shown on the audited
financial information most recently delivered to Agent pursuant to Annex E
(after giving effect to any write-downs subsequent to the reporting period for
which such audited financial information was delivered), to any prepayment
hereunder. Any prepayment required hereunder shall be applied in accordance with
Section 1.3(c).

                           (iii)    Upon any sale of more than fifty percent
(50%) of the issued and outstanding Stock of any Borrower or any sale of Stock
of any Subsidiary of any other Credit Party to any Person other than a Credit
Party, no later than the Business Day following the date

                                       11
<PAGE>

of receipt of the proceeds thereof, the Borrower or shall prepay the Loans in an
amount equal to all such proceeds (other than proceeds received by a Subsidiary
from the sale of Stock to any Borrower or to another Subsidiary), net of
underwriting discounts and commissions and other reasonable customary
transaction costs, fees and expenses paid to non-Affiliates in connection
therewith. Any such prepayment shall be applied in accordance with Section
1.3(c).

                           (iv)     Until the Termination Date, Borrowers shall
prepay the Obligations on the date that is 10 days after the earlier of (A) the
date on which Borrowers' annual audited Financial Statements for the immediately
preceding Fiscal Year are delivered pursuant to Annex E or (B) the date on which
such annual audited Financial Statements were required to be delivered pursuant
to Annex E, in an amount equal to the greater of:

                                    (1)      fifty percent (50%) of the lesser
of (x) Excess Cash Flow for the immediately preceding Fiscal Year and (y) the
amount by which the Credit Parties' cash on hand on the date specified in clause
(A) or (B) above exceeds $15,000,000; and

                                    (2)      the amount payable on or about such
date to the lenders under the Post-Confirmation Credit Agreement pursuant to
Section 2.08(b)(ii) of the Post-Confirmation Credit Agreement.

Any prepayments from Excess Cash Flow paid pursuant to this clause (iv) shall be
accompanied by written notice signed by Borrower Representative's Chief
Financial Officer and shall be applied in accordance with Section 1.3(c).

                  (c)      Application of Certain Mandatory Prepayments. Any
prepayments made by any Borrower pursuant to Sections 1.3(b)(ii), (b)(iii), or
(b)(iv) above shall be applied as follows: first, to Fees and reimbursable
expenses of Agent then due and payable pursuant to any of the Loan Documents;
second, to the interest then due and payable on Borrowers' Swing Line Loan;
third, to the principal balance of the Swing Line Loan; fourth, to interest then
due and payable on Revolving Credit Advances; fifth, to the principal balance of
Revolving Credit Advances outstanding until the same has been paid in full;
sixth, to any Letter of Credit Obligations to provide cash collateral therefor
in the manner set forth in Annex B, until all such Letter of Credit Obligations
have been fully cash collateralized in the manner set forth in Annex B. The
Revolving Loan Commitment shall be permanently reduced by the amount of any such
prepayments pursuant to Sections 1.3(b)(ii) or (b)(iii).

                  (d)      Application of Prepayments from Insurance and
Condemnation Proceeds. Unless reinvested by one or more Credit Parties in the
absence of an Event of Default, in a manner acceptable to Agent in its sole
discretion, within 180 days of receipt by any Credit Party of insurance or
condemnation proceeds (excluding proceeds relating to Real Estate identified on
Disclosure Schedule 1.3(b) as a permitted disposition or the disposition of
which is permitted by Section 6.8 (a)), prepayments from insurance or
condemnation proceeds in accordance with Section 5.4(c) and the Mortgage(s),
respectively, shall be applied, first, to the Swing Line Loans and, second, to
the Revolving Credit Advances of the Borrower that incurred such casualties or
losses. Neither the Revolving Loan Commitment nor the Swing Line Loan Commitment
shall be permanently reduced by the amount of any such prepayments.

                                       12
<PAGE>

                  (e)      No Implied Consent. Nothing in this Section 1.3 shall
be construed to constitute Agent's or any Lender's consent to any transaction
that is not permitted by other provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents.

                  1.4      Use of Proceeds. Borrowers shall utilize the proceeds
of the Revolving Loan and the Swing Line Advances solely for the Refinancing
(provided that not more than $20,000,000 of such proceeds, in the aggregate,
shall be used for the Refinancing and to pay any related transaction expenses),
the making of Restricted Payments with respect to the Post-Confirmation Credit
Agreement Documents (not otherwise prohibited hereunder or by the Intercreditor
Agreement) and for the financing of Borrowers' ordinary working capital and
general corporate needs. Disclosure Schedule (1.4) contains a description of
Borrowers' sources and uses of funds as of the Closing Date, including Loans and
Letter of Credit Obligations to be made or incurred on that date, and a funds
flow memorandum detailing how funds from each source are to be transferred to
particular uses.

                  1.5      Interest and Applicable Margins.

                  (a)      Borrowers shall pay interest to Agent, for the
ratable benefit of Lenders in arrears on each applicable Interest Payment Date,
the Index Rate plus the Applicable Revolver Index Margin per annum or, at the
election of Borrower Representative, the applicable LIBOR Rate plus the
Applicable Revolver LIBOR Margin per annum, based on the aggregate Revolving
Credit Advances outstanding from time to time.

                  The Applicable Margins are as follows:

<TABLE>
          <S>                                            <C>
          Applicable Revolver Index Margin               1.75%
          Applicable Revolver LIBOR Margin               3.25%
          Applicable L/C Margin                          3.25%
</TABLE>

                  (b)      If any payment on any Loan becomes due and payable on
a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof will be extended to the
next succeeding Business Day (except as set forth in the definition of LIBOR
Period) and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be
payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.

                  (c)      All computations of Fees calculated on a per annum
basis and interest shall be made by Agent on the basis of a 360-day year, in
each case for the actual number of days occurring in the period for which such
interest and Fees are payable. The Index Rate is a floating rate determined for
each day. Each determination by Agent of an interest rate and Fees hereunder
shall be final, binding and conclusive on Borrowers, absent manifest error.

                  (d)      So long as an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing under Section 8.1(a), (h) or (i) or so long as any Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing and at the election of Agent (or upon the written
request of Requisite Lenders) confirmed by written notice from Agent to Borrower
Representative, the interest rates applicable to the Loans and the Letter of
Credit Fees shall be increased by two percentage points (2%) per annum above the
rates of interest or the rate of such Fees otherwise applicable hereunder
("Default Rate"), and all

                                       13
<PAGE>

outstanding Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate applicable to
such Obligations. Interest and Letter of Credit Fees at the Default Rate shall
accrue from the initial date of such Event of Default until that Event of
Default is cured or waived and shall be payable upon demand.

                  (e)      Subject to the conditions precedent set forth in
Section 2.2, Borrower Representative shall have the option to (i) request that
any Revolving Credit Advance be made as a LIBOR Loan, (ii) convert at any time
all or any part of outstanding Loans (other than the Swing Line Loan) from Index
Rate Loans to LIBOR Loans, (iii) convert any LIBOR Loan to an Index Rate Loan,
subject to payment of LIBOR breakage costs in accordance with Section 1.13(b) if
such conversion is made prior to the expiration of the LIBOR Period applicable
thereto, or (iv) continue all or any portion of any Loan (other than the Swing
Line Loan) as a LIBOR Loan upon the expiration of the applicable LIBOR Period
and the succeeding LIBOR Period of that continued Loan shall commence on the
first day after the last day of the LIBOR Period of the Loan to be continued.
Any Loan or group of Loans having the same proposed LIBOR Period to be made or
continued as, or converted into, a LIBOR Loan must be in a minimum amount of
$5,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess of such amount. Any such
election must be made by 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the 3rd Business Day
prior to (1) the date of any proposed Advance which is to bear interest at the
LIBOR Rate, (2) the end of each LIBOR Period with respect to any LIBOR Loans to
be continued as such, or (3) the date on which Borrower Representative wishes to
convert any Index Rate Loan to a LIBOR Loan for a LIBOR Period designated by
Borrower Representative in such election. If no election is received with
respect to a LIBOR Loan by 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the 3rd Business Day
prior to the end of the LIBOR Period with respect thereto (or if an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing or if the additional conditions precedent
set forth in Section 2.2 shall not have been satisfied), that LIBOR Loan shall
be converted to an Index Rate Loan at the end of its LIBOR Period. Borrower
Representative must make such election by notice to Agent in writing, by
telecopy or overnight courier. In the case of any conversion or continuation,
such election must be made pursuant to a written notice (a "Notice of
Conversion/Continuation") in the form of Exhibit 1.5(e).

                  (f)      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in
this Section 1.5, if a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final
order that the rate of interest payable hereunder exceeds the highest rate of
interest permissible under law (the "Maximum Lawful Rate"), then so long as the
Maximum Lawful Rate would be so exceeded, the rate of interest payable hereunder
shall be equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate; provided, however, that if at any
time thereafter the rate of interest payable hereunder is less than the Maximum
Lawful Rate, Borrowers shall continue to pay interest hereunder at the Maximum
Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received by Agent, on behalf
of Lenders, is equal to the total interest that would have been received had the
interest rate payable hereunder been (but for the operation of this paragraph)
the interest rate payable since the Closing Date as otherwise provided in this
Agreement. Thereafter, interest hereunder shall be paid at the rate(s) of
interest and in the manner provided in Sections 1.5(a) through (e), unless and
until the rate of interest again exceeds the Maximum Lawful Rate, and at that
time this paragraph shall again apply. In no event shall the total interest
received by any Lender pursuant to the terms hereof exceed the amount that such
Lender could lawfully have received had the interest due hereunder been
calculated for the full term hereof at the Maximum Lawful Rate. If the Maximum
Lawful Rate is calculated

                                       14
<PAGE>

pursuant to this paragraph, such interest shall be calculated at a daily rate
equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate divided by the number of days in the year in
which such calculation is made. If, notwithstanding the provisions of this
Section 1.5(f), a court of competent jurisdiction shall finally determine that a
Lender has received interest hereunder in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate,
Agent shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, promptly apply such
excess in the order specified in Section 1.11 and thereafter shall refund any
excess to Borrowers or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise order.

                  1.6      [Intentionally Omitted].

                  1.7      [Intentionally Omitted].

                  1.8      Cash Management Systems. On or prior to the Closing
Date, Borrowers will establish and will maintain until the Termination Date, the
cash management systems described in Annex C (the "Cash Management Systems").

                  1.9      Fees.

                  (a)      Borrowers shall pay to GE Capital, individually, the
Fees specified in that certain commitment letter dated as of December 13, 2001
(and executed on December 14, 2001) among Borrowers and GE Capital (the "GE
Capital Letter"), at the times specified for payment therein.

                  (b)      As additional compensation for the Revolving Lenders,
Borrowers shall pay to Agent, for the ratable benefit of such Lenders, in
arrears, on the first Business Day of each month prior to the Commitment
Termination Date and on the Commitment Termination Date, a Fee for Borrowers'
non-use of available funds in an amount equal to the Applicable Unused Line Fee
per annum (calculated on the basis of a 360 day year for actual days elapsed)
multiplied by the difference between (x) the Maximum Amount (as it may be
reduced from time to time) and (y) the average for the period of the daily
closing balances of the aggregate Revolving Loan outstanding during the period
for which such Fee is due.

                  (c)      [Intentionally Omitted].

                  (d)      Borrowers shall pay to Agent, for the ratable benefit
of Revolving Lenders, the Letter of Credit Fee as provided in Annex B.

                  1.10     Receipt of Payments. Borrowers shall make each
payment under this Agreement not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the day
when due in immediately available funds in Dollars to the Collection Account.
Payments received after 2:00 p.m. New York time on any Business Day or on a day
that is not a Business Day shall be deemed to have been received on the
following Business Day.

                  1.11     Application and Allocation of Payments.

                  (a)      So long as no Default or Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, (i) payments shall be applied first, to the Swing
Line Loan and, second, to the Revolving Loan; (ii) payments matching specific
scheduled payments then due shall be applied to those scheduled

                                       15
<PAGE>

payments; (iii) voluntary prepayments shall be applied as determined by Borrower
Representative, subject to the provisions of Section 1.3(a); and (iv) mandatory
prepayments shall be applied as set forth in Sections 1.3(c) and 1.3(d). All
payments and prepayments applied to a particular Loan shall be applied ratably
to the portion thereof held by each Lender as determined by its Pro Rata Share.
As to any other payment, and as to all payments made when a Default or Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing or following the Commitment Termination
Date, each Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the
application of any and all payments received from or on behalf of such Borrower,
and each Borrower hereby irrevocably agrees that Agent shall have the continuing
exclusive right to apply any and all such payments against the Obligations of
Borrowers as Agent may deem advisable notwithstanding any previous entry by
Agent in the Loan Account or any other books and records. In the absence of a
specific determination by Agent with respect thereto, payments shall be applied
to amounts then due and payable in the following order: (1) to Fees and Agent's
expenses reimbursable hereunder; (2) to interest on the Swing Line Loan; (3) to
principal payments on the Swing Line Loan; (4) to interest on the other Loans,
ratably in proportion to the interest accrued as to each Loan; (5) to principal
payments on the other Loans and to provide cash collateral for Letter of Credit
Obligations in the manner described in Annex B, ratably to the aggregate,
combined principal balance of the other Loans and outstanding Letter of Credit
Obligations; and (6) to all other Obligations, including expenses of Lenders to
the extent reimbursable under Section 11.3.

                  (b)      Agent is authorized to, and at its sole election may,
charge to the Revolving Loan balance on behalf of each Borrower and cause to be
paid all Fees, expenses, Charges, costs (including insurance premiums in
accordance with Section 5.4(a)) and interest and principal, other than principal
of the Revolving Loan, owing by Borrowers under this Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents if and to the extent Borrowers fail to pay promptly any
such amounts as and when due. At Agent's option and to the extent permitted by
law, any charges so made shall constitute part of the Revolving Loan hereunder.

                  1.12     Loan Account and Accounting. Agent shall maintain a
loan account (the "Loan Account") on its books to record: all Advances, all
payments made by Borrowers, and all other debits and credits as provided in this
Agreement with respect to the Loans or any other Obligations. All entries in the
Loan Account shall be made in accordance with Agent's customary accounting
practices as in effect from time to time. The balance in the Loan Account, as
recorded on Agent's most recent printout or other written statement, shall,
absent manifest error, be presumptive evidence of the amounts due and owing to
Agent and Lenders by each Borrower; provided that any failure to so record or
any error in so recording shall not limit or otherwise affect any Borrower's
duty to pay the Obligations. Agent shall render to Borrower Representative a
monthly accounting of transactions with respect to the Loans setting forth the
balance of the Loan Account as to each Borrower for the immediately preceding
month. Unless Borrower Representative notifies Agent in writing of any objection
to any such accounting (specifically describing the basis for such objection),
within 30 days after the date thereof, each and every such accounting shall
(absent manifest error) be deemed final, binding and conclusive on Borrowers in
all respects as to all matters reflected therein. Only those items expressly
objected to in such notice shall be deemed to be disputed by Borrowers.
Notwithstanding any provision herein contained to the contrary, any Lender may
elect (which election may be revoked) to dispense with the issuance of Notes to
that Lender and may rely on the Loan Account as evidence of the amount of
Obligations from time to time owing to it.

                  1.13     Indemnity.

                  (a)      Each Credit Party that is a signatory hereto shall
jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless each of Agent, Lenders and
their respective Affiliates, and each such Person's respective officers,
directors, employees, attorneys, agents and representatives (each, an
"Indemnified Person"), from and against any and all suits, actions, proceedings,
claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable
attorneys' fees and disbursements and other costs of investigation or defense,
including those incurred upon any appeal) that may be instituted or asserted
against or incurred by any such Indemnified Person as the result of credit
having been extended, suspended or terminated under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents and the administration of such credit, and in connection with or
arising out of the transactions contemplated hereunder and thereunder and any
actions or failures to act in connection therewith, including any and all
Environmental Liabilities and legal costs and expenses arising out of or
incurred in connection with disputes between or among any parties to any of the
Loan Documents (collectively, "Indemnified Liabilities"); provided, that no such
Credit Party shall be liable for any indemnification to an Indemnified Person to
the extent that any such suit, action, proceeding, claim, damage, loss,
liability or expense results from that Indemnified Person's gross negligence or
willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a
final non-appealable judgment or order. NO INDEMNIFIED PERSON SHALL BE
RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO ANY OTHER PARTY TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, ANY SUCCESSOR,
ASSIGNEE OR THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY OF SUCH PERSON OR ANY OTHER PERSON ASSERTING
CLAIMS DERIVATIVELY THROUGH SUCH PARTY, FOR INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHICH MAY BE ALLEGED AS A RESULT OF CREDIT HAVING BEEN
EXTENDED, SUSPENDED OR TERMINATED UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR AS A RESULT OF ANY
OTHER TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER.

                  (b)      To induce Lenders to provide the LIBOR Rate option on
the terms provided herein, if (i) any LIBOR Loans are repaid in whole or in part
prior to the last day of any applicable LIBOR Period (whether that repayment is
made pursuant to any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or
occurs as a result of acceleration, by operation of law or otherwise); (ii) any
Borrower shall refuse to accept any borrowing of, or shall request a termination
of, any borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of, LIBOR Loans after
Borrower Representative has given notice requesting the same in accordance
herewith; or (iii) any Borrower shall fail to make any prepayment of a LIBOR
Loan after Borrower Representative has given a notice thereof in accordance
herewith, then Borrowers shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless
each Lender from and against all losses, costs and expenses resulting from or
arising from any of the foregoing. Such indemnification shall include any loss
(excluding loss of margin) or expense arising from the reemployment of funds
obtained by it or from fees payable to terminate deposits from which such funds
were obtained. For the purpose of calculating amounts payable to a Lender under
this subsection, each Lender shall be deemed to have actually funded its
relevant LIBOR Loan through the purchase of a deposit bearing interest at the
LIBOR Rate in an amount equal to the amount of that LIBOR Loan and having a
maturity comparable to the relevant LIBOR Period; provided, that each Lender may
fund each of its LIBOR Loans in any manner it sees fit, and the foregoing
assumption shall be utilized only for the calculation of amounts payable under
this subsection. This covenant shall

                                       17
<PAGE>

survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Notes and all
other amounts payable hereunder. As promptly as practicable under the
circumstances, each Lender shall provide Borrower Representative with its
written calculation of all amounts payable pursuant to this Section 1.13(b), and
such calculation shall be binding on the parties hereto unless Borrower
Representative shall object in writing within 10 Business Days of receipt
thereof, specifying the basis for such objection in reasonable detail.

                  1.14     Access. Each Credit Party that is a party hereto
shall, during normal business hours, from time to time upon five days' prior
notice as frequently as Agent determines to be appropriate: (a) provide Agent
and any of its officers, employees and agents access to its properties,
facilities, advisors and employees (including officers) of each Credit Party and
to the Collateral, (b) permit Agent, and any of its officers, employees and
agents, to inspect, audit and make extracts from any Credit Party's books and
records, and (c) permit Agent, and its officers, employees and agents, to
inspect, review, evaluate and make test verifications and counts of the
Accounts, Inventory and other Collateral of any Credit Party. If an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing or if access is necessary to preserve or
protect the Collateral as determined by Agent, each such Credit Party shall
provide such access to Agent at all times and without advance notice. Each
Credit Party shall make available to Agent and its counsel, as quickly as is
possible under the circumstances, originals or copies of all books and records
that Agent may reasonably request. Each Credit Party shall deliver any document
or instrument necessary for Agent, as it may from time to time reasonably
request, to obtain records from any service bureau or other Person that
maintains records for such Credit Party, and shall maintain duplicate records or
supporting documentation on media, including computer tapes and discs owned by
such Credit Party. Agent will give Lenders at least 5 Business Days' prior
written notice of regularly scheduled audits. Representatives of other Lenders
may accompany Agent's representatives on regularly scheduled audits at no charge
to Borrowers.

                  1.15     Taxes.

                  (a)      Any and all payments by each Borrower hereunder
(including any payments made pursuant to Section 12) or under the Notes shall be
made, in accordance with this Section 1.15, free and clear of and without
deduction for any and all present or future Taxes. If any Borrower shall be
required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable
hereunder (including any sum payable pursuant to Section 12) or under the Notes,
(i) the sum payable shall be increased as much as shall be necessary so that
after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to
additional sums payable under this Section 1.15) Agent or Lenders, as
applicable, receive an amount equal to the sum they 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 taxing or
other authority in accordance with applicable law. Within 30 days after the date
of any payment of Taxes, Borrower Representative shall make available to Agent
the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. Agent
and Lenders shall not be obligated to return or refund any amounts received
pursuant to this Section.

                  (b)      Each Credit Party that is a signatory hereto shall
jointly and severally indemnify and, within 10 days of demand therefor, pay
Agent and each Lender for the full amount of Taxes (including any Taxes imposed
by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under

                                       18
<PAGE>

this Section 1.15) paid by Agent or such Lender, as appropriate, and any
liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with
respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally asserted.

                  (c)      Each Lender organized under the laws of a
jurisdiction outside the United States (a "Foreign Lender") as to which payments
to be made under this Agreement or under the Notes are exempt from United States
withholding tax under an applicable statute or tax treaty shall provide to
Borrower Representative and Agent a properly completed and executed IRS Form
W-8ECI or Form W-8BEN or other applicable form, certificate or document
prescribed by the IRS or the United States certifying as to such Foreign
Lender's entitlement to such exemption (a "Certificate of Exemption"). Any
foreign Person that seeks to become a Lender under this Agreement shall provide
a Certificate of Exemption to Borrower Representative and Agent prior to
becoming a Lender hereunder. No foreign Person may become a Lender hereunder if
such Person fails to deliver a Certificate of Exemption in advance of becoming a
Lender.

                  1.16     Capital Adequacy; Increased Costs; Illegality.

                  (a)      If any Lender shall have determined that any law,
treaty, governmental (or quasi-governmental) rule, regulation, guideline or
order regarding capital adequacy, reserve requirements or similar requirements
or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive regarding capital
adequacy, reserve requirements or similar requirements (whether or not having
the force of law), in each case, adopted after the Closing Date, from any
central bank or other Governmental Authority increases or would have the effect
of increasing the amount of capital, reserves or other funds required to be
maintained by such Lender and thereby reducing the rate of return on such
Lender's capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder below that which
such Lender would have achieved but for such adoption, then Borrowers shall from
time to time upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to Agent)
pay to Agent, for the account of such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to
compensate such Lender for such reduction. A certificate as to the amount of
that reduction and showing the basis of the computation thereof submitted by
such Lender to Borrower Representative and to Agent shall, absent manifest
error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes.

                  (b)      If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any
change in any law or regulation (or any change in the interpretation thereof) 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), in each case
adopted after the Closing Date, there shall be any increase in the cost to any
Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Loan, then
Borrowers shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of
such demand to Agent), pay to Agent for the account of such Lender additional
amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost. A
certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to Borrower
Representative and to Agent by such Lender, shall be conclusive and binding on
Borrowers for all purposes, absent manifest error. Each Lender agrees that, as
promptly as practicable after it becomes aware of any circumstances referred to
above which would result in any such increased cost, the affected Lender shall,
to the extent not inconsistent with such Lender's internal policies of general
application, use reasonable commercial efforts to minimize costs and expenses
incurred by it and payable to it by Borrowers pursuant to this Section 1.16(b).

                                       19
<PAGE>

                  (c)      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, if the introduction of or any change in any law or regulation (or any
change in the interpretation thereof) shall make it unlawful, or any central
bank or other Governmental Authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for any
Lender to agree to make or to make or to continue to fund or maintain any LIBOR
Loan, then, unless that Lender is able to make or to continue to fund or to
maintain such LIBOR Loan at another branch or office of that Lender without, in
that Lender's opinion, adversely affecting it or its Loans or the income
obtained therefrom, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such Lender to
Borrower Representative through Agent, (i) the obligation of such Lender to
agree to make or to make or to continue to fund or maintain LIBOR Loans shall be
suspended, and each such Lender shall make an Index Rate Loan as part of any
request for LIBOR Loans and (ii) if the LIBOR Loans are then outstanding, each
Borrower shall immediately convert each such Loan into an Index Rate Loan. If at
any time after a Lender gives notice under this Section 1.16(c), such Lender
determines that it may lawfully make LIBOR Loans, such Lender shall promptly
give notice of that determination to each Borrower and Agent and Agent shall
promptly transmit the notice to each Lender. The Borrowers' right to request and
such Lender's obligation, if any, to make LIBOR Loans shall thereupon be
restored and (ii) each Borrower shall forthwith prepay in full all outstanding
LIBOR Loans owing by such Borrower to such Lender, together with interest
accrued thereon, unless Borrower Representative on behalf of such Borrower,
within 5 Business Days after the delivery of such notice and demand, converts
all LIBOR Loans into Index Rate Loans.

                  (d)      Any demand by a Lender for reimbursement pursuant to
Sections 1.15(a), 1.16(a) or 1.16(b) must be made within one hundred eighty
(180) days of the event which created such right of reimbursement. Within 15
days after receipt by Borrower Representative of written notice and demand from
any Lender (an "Affected Lender") for payment of additional amounts or increased
costs as provided in Sections 1.15(a), 1.16(a) or 1.16(b), Borrower
Representative may, at its option, notify Agent and such Affected Lender of its
intention to replace the Affected Lender. So long as no Default or Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower Representative, with the
consent of Agent, may obtain, at Borrowers' expense, a replacement Lender
("Replacement Lender") for the Affected Lender, which Replacement Lender must be
reasonably satisfactory to Agent. If Borrowers obtain a Replacement Lender
within 90 days following notice of their intention to do so, the Affected Lender
must sell and assign its Loans and Commitments to such Replacement Lender for an
amount equal to the principal balance of all Loans held by the Affected Lender
and all accrued interest and Fees with respect thereto through the date of such
sale; provided, that Borrowers shall have reimbursed such Affected Lender for
the additional amounts or increased costs that it is entitled to receive under
this Agreement through the date of such sale and assignment. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Borrowers shall not have the right to obtain a Replacement Lender if
the Affected Lender rescinds its demand for increased costs or additional
amounts within 15 days following its receipt of Borrowers' notice of intention
to replace such Affected Lender. Furthermore, if Borrowers give a notice of
intention to replace and do not so replace such Affected Lender within 90 days
thereafter, Borrowers' rights under this Section 1.16(d) shall terminate and
Borrowers shall promptly pay all increased costs or additional amounts demanded
by such Affected Lender pursuant to Sections 1.15(a), 1.16(a) and 1.16(b).

                  1.17     Single Loan. All Loans to each Borrower and all of
the other Obligations of each Borrower arising under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents shall constitute

                                       20
<PAGE>

one general obligation of that Borrower secured, until the Termination Date, by
all of the Collateral.

2.       CONDITIONS PRECEDENT

                  2.1      Conditions to the Initial Loans. No Lender shall be
obligated to make any Loan or incur any Letter of Credit Obligations on the
Closing Date, or to take, fulfill, or perform any other action hereunder, until

that no such consents or approvals are required.

                  (d)      [Intentionally Omitted].

                  (e)      Payment of Fees. Borrowers shall have paid the Fees
required to be paid on the Closing Date in the respective amounts specified in
Section 1.9 (including the Fees specified in the GE Capital Letter), and shall

                  (f)      Capital Structure: Other Indebtedness. The capital

                  (i)      Confirmation Order. The Confirmation Order has been
entered by the Court.

                  2.2      Further Conditions to Each Loan. Except as otherwise
expressly provided herein, no Lender shall be obligated to fund any Advance,
convert or continue any Loan as a LIBOR Loan or incur any Letter of Credit
Obligation, if, as of the date thereof:

                  (a)      any representation or warranty by any Credit Party
contained herein or in any other Loan Document is untrue or incorrect as of such
date, except to the extent that such representation or warranty expressly
relates to an earlier date and except for changes therein expressly permitted or
expressly contemplated by this Agreement and Agent or Requisite Lenders have
determined not to make such Advance, convert or continue any Loan as LIBOR Loan
or incur such Letter of Credit Obligation as a result of the fact that such
warranty or representation is untrue or incorrect;

                  (b)      any event or circumstance having a Material Adverse
Effect has occurred since the date hereof as determined by the Requisite Lenders

as a result of the fact that such event or circumstance has occurred;

                  (c)      any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing or would result after giving effect to any Advance (or the incurrence
of any Letter of Credit Obligation), and Agent or Requisite Lenders shall have

or incur any Letter of Credit Obligation as a result of that Default or Event of
Default; or

then outstanding principal amount of the Swing Line Loan.

The request and acceptance by any Borrower of the proceeds of any Advance, the
incurrence of any Letter of Credit Obligations or the conversion or continuation
of any Loan into, or as, a LIBOR Loan shall be deemed to constitute, as of the
date thereof, (i) a representation and warranty by Borrowers that the conditions
in this Section 2.2 have been satisfied and (ii) a reaffirmation by Borrowers of
the cross-guaranty provisions set forth in Section 12 and of the granting and
continuance of Agent's Liens, on behalf of itself and Lenders, pursuant to the
Collateral Documents.

3.       REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

                  To induce Lenders to make the Loans and to incur Letter of
Credit Obligations, the Credit Parties executing this Agreement, jointly and
severally, make the following representations and warranties to Agent and each

the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

Schedule (3.1); (b) is duly qualified to conduct business and is in good

protect and perfect such Credit Party's right, title and interest in and to all
such Real Estate and other properties and assets. Disclosure Schedule (3.6) also

<PAGE>

connection with, or otherwise relating to the employment or termination of
employment by any Credit Party of any individual.

Stock and Indebtedness. Except as set forth in Disclosure Schedule (3.8), as of

equity securities or any Stock or other equity securities of its Subsidiaries.
All outstanding Indebtedness and Guaranteed Indebtedness of each Credit Party as
of the Closing Date (except for the Obligations) is described in Section 6.3
(including Disclosure Schedule (6.3)). None of the Credit Parties other than

Obligations) except as set forth on Disclosure Schedule (6.3).

                  3.9      Government Regulation. No Credit Party is subject to
regulation as an "investment company" under, and as such term is defined in, the
Investment Company Act of 1940. No Credit Party is subject to regulation under
the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, the Federal Power Act, or any
other federal or state statute that restricts or limits its ability to incur
Indebtedness or to perform its obligations hereunder. The making of the Loans by
Lenders to Borrowers, the incurrence of the Letter of Credit Obligations on
behalf of Borrowers, the application of the proceeds thereof and repayment
thereof and the consummation of the Related Transactions will not violate any
provision of any such statute or any rule, regulation or order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

                  3.10     Margin Regulations. No Credit Party is engaged, nor
will it engage, principally or as one of its important activities, in the
business of extending credit for the purpose of "purchasing" or "carrying" any
"margin stock" as such terms are defined in Regulation U of the Federal Reserve
Board as now and from time to time hereafter in effect (such securities being
referred to herein as "Margin Stock"). Except for Margin Stock having a value
not in excess of $100,000 (which amount represents less than 25% of the value of
the assets of the Credit Parties), no Credit Party owns any Margin Stock, and
none of the proceeds of the Loans or other extensions of credit under this
Agreement will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or
carrying any Margin Stock, for the purpose of reducing or retiring any
Indebtedness that was originally incurred to purchase or carry any Margin Stock
or for any other purpose that might cause any of the Loans or other extensions
of credit under this Agreement to be considered a "purpose credit" within the
meaning of Regulations T, U or X of the Federal Reserve Board. No Credit Party
will take or permit to be taken any action that might cause any Loan Document to
violate any regulation of the Federal Reserve Board.

                  3.11     Taxes. Except for pre-petition claims provided for in
the Plan of Reorganization, all tax returns, reports and statements, including
information returns, required by any Governmental Authority to be filed by any
Credit Party have been filed with the appropriate

                                       26
<PAGE>

Governmental Authority and all Charges have been paid prior to the date on which
any fine, penalty, interest or late charge may be added thereto for nonpayment
thereof (or any such fine, penalty, interest, late charge or loss has been
paid), excluding Charges or other amounts being contested in accordance with
Section 5.2(b). Proper and accurate amounts have been withheld by each Credit
Party from its respective employees for all periods in full and complete
compliance with all applicable federal, state, local and foreign laws and such
withholdings have been timely paid to the respective Governmental Authorities.
Disclosure Schedule (3.11) sets forth as of the Closing Date those taxable years
for which any Credit Party's tax returns are currently being audited by the IRS
or any other applicable Governmental Authority, and any assessments or
threatened assessments in connection with such audit, or otherwise currently
outstanding. Except as described in Disclosure Schedule (3.11), no Credit Party
has executed or filed with the IRS or any other Governmental Authority any
agreement or other document extending, or having the effect of extending, the
period for assessment or collection of any Charges. None of the Credit Parties
and their respective predecessors are liable for any Charges: (a) under any
agreement (including any tax sharing agreements) or (b) to each Credit Party's
knowledge, as a transferee. As of the Closing Date, no Credit Party has agreed
or been requested to make any adjustment under IRC Section 481(a), by reason of
a change in accounting method or otherwise, which would have a Material Adverse
Effect.

                  3.12     ERISA.

                  (a)      Disclosure Schedule (3.12) lists (i) all ERISA
Affiliates and (ii) all Plans and separately identifies all Pension Plans,
including Title IV Plans, Multiemployer Plans, ESOPs and Welfare Plans,
including all Retiree Welfare Plans. Copies of all such listed Plans, together
with a copy of the latest IRS/DOL 5500-series form for each such Plan, have been
delivered or made available to Agent. Except with respect to Multiemployer
Plans, each Qualified Plan has been determined by the IRS to qualify under
Section 401 of the IRC, the trusts created thereunder have been determined to be
exempt from tax under the provisions of Section 501 of the IRC, and nothing has
occurred that would cause the loss of such qualification or tax-exempt status.
Each Plan is in compliance in all material respects with the applicable
provisions of ERISA and the IRC, including the timely filing of all reports
required under the IRC or ERISA, including the statement required by 29 CFR
Section 2520.104-23. Neither any Credit Party nor ERISA Affiliate has failed to
make any contribution or pay any amount due as required by either Section 412 of
the IRC or Section 302 of ERISA or the terms of any such Plan. Neither any
Credit Party nor ERISA Affiliate has engaged in a "prohibited transaction," as
defined in Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the IRC, in connection with
any Plan, that would subject any Credit Party to a material tax on prohibited
transactions imposed by Section 502(i) of ERISA or Section 4975 of the IRC.

                  (b)      Except as set forth in Disclosure Schedule (3.12):
(i) no Title IV Plan has any Unfunded Pension Liability; (ii) no ERISA Event or
event described in Section 4062(e) of ERISA with respect to any Title IV Plan
has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur; (iii) there are no pending, or
to the knowledge of any Credit Party, threatened claims (other than claims for
benefits in the normal course), sanctions, actions or lawsuits, asserted or
instituted against any Plan or any Person as fiduciary or sponsor of any Plan;
(iv) no Credit Party or ERISA Affiliate has incurred or reasonably expects to
incur any liability as a result of a complete or partial withdrawal from a
Multiemployer Plan; (v) within the last five years no Title IV Plan

                                       27
<PAGE>

of any Credit Party or ERISA Affiliate has been terminated, whether or not in a
"standard termination" as that term is used in Section 4041(b)(1) of ERISA, nor
has any Title IV Plan of any Credit Party or any ERISA Affiliate (determined at
any time within the last five years) with Unfunded Pension Liabilities been
transferred outside of the "controlled group" (within the meaning of Section
4001(a)(14) of ERISA) of any Credit Party or ERISA Affiliate (determined at such
time); (vi) except in the case of any ESOP, Stock of all Credit Parties and
their ERISA Affiliates makes up, in the aggregate, no more than 10% of fair
market value of the assets of any Plan measured on the basis of fair market
value as of the latest valuation date of any Plan; and (vii) no liability under
any Title IV Plan has been satisfied with the purchase of a contract from an
insurance company that is not rated AAA by the Standard & Poor's Corporation or
an equivalent rating by another nationally recognized rating agency.

                  3.13     No Litigation. No action, claim, lawsuit, demand,
investigation or proceeding is now pending or, to the knowledge of any Credit
Party, threatened against any Credit Party, before any Governmental Authority or
before any arbitrator or panel of arbitrators (collectively, "Litigation"), (a)
that challenges any Credit Party's right or power to enter into or perform any
of its obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is a party, or the
validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any action taken thereunder,
or (b) that has a reasonable risk of being determined adversely to any Credit
Party and that, if so determined, could be reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth on Disclosure Schedule (3.13), as
of the Closing Date there is no Litigation pending or, to any Credit Party's
knowledge, threatened, that seeks damages in excess of $250,000 or injunctive
relief against, or alleges criminal misconduct of, any Credit Party.

                  3.14     Brokers. Except as set forth in Disclosure Schedule
(3.14), no broker or finder brought about the obtaining, making or closing of
the Loans or the Related Transactions, and no Credit Party or Affiliate thereof
has any obligation to any Person in respect of any finder's or brokerage fees in
connection therewith.

                  3.15     Intellectual Property. As of the Closing Date, each
Credit Party owns or has rights to use all Intellectual Property necessary to
continue to conduct its business as now or heretofore conducted by it or
proposed to be conducted by it, and each Patent, Trademark, Copyright and
License is listed, together with application or registration numbers, as
applicable, in Disclosure Schedule (3.15). Each Credit Party conducts its
business and affairs without infringement of or interference with any
Intellectual Property of any other Person in any material respect. Except as set
forth in Disclosure Schedule (3.15), no Credit Party is aware of any
infringement claim by any other Person with respect to any Intellectual Property
owned by it.

                  3.16     Full Disclosure. No information contained in this
Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, Financial Statements or Collateral
Reports or other written reports from time to time delivered hereunder or any
written statement furnished by or on behalf of any Credit Party to Agent or any
Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement contains or will contain any
untrue statement of a material fact or omits or will omit to state a material
fact necessary to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading
in light of the circumstances under which they were made. The Liens granted to
Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders, pursuant to the Collateral Documents
will at all times be fully perfected first priority Liens in and to the
Collateral described therein, subject, as to priority, only to Permitted
Encumbrances.

are valid, uncontested and in good standing; (v) no Credit Party is involved in
operations or knows of any facts, circumstances or conditions, including any
Releases of Hazardous Materials, that are likely to result in any Environmental

         5.2      Payment of Charges.

         (a)      Except as provided in the Plan of Reorganization and subject
to Section 5.2(b), each Credit Party shall pay and discharge or cause to be paid
and discharged promptly all Charges payable by it, including (i) Charges imposed
upon it, its income and profits, or any of its property (real, personal or
mixed) and all Charges with respect to tax, social security and unemployment
withholding with respect to its employees, (ii) lawful claims for labor,
materials, supplies and services or otherwise, and (iii) all storage or rental
charges payable to warehousemen or bailees, in each case, before any thereof
shall become past due.

         (b)      Each Credit Party may in good faith contest, by appropriate
proceedings, the validity or amount of any Charges, Taxes or claims described in
Section 5.2(a); provided, that (i) adequate reserves with respect to such
contest are maintained on the books of such Credit Party, in accordance with
GAAP; (ii) no Lien shall be imposed to secure payment of such Charges (other
than payments to warehousemen and/or bailees) that is superior to any of the
Liens securing the Obligations and such contest is maintained and prosecuted
continuously and with diligence and operates to suspend collection or
enforcement of such Charges; (iii) none of the Collateral becomes subject to
forfeiture or loss as a result of such contest; (iv) such Credit Party shall
promptly pay or discharge such contested Charges, Taxes or claims and all
additional charges, interest, penalties and expenses, if any, and shall deliver
to Agent evidence reasonably acceptable to Agent of such compliance, payment or
discharge, if such contest is terminated or discontinued adversely to such
Credit Party or the conditions set forth in this Section 5.2(b) are no longer
met; and (v) Agent has not advised Borrowers in writing that Agent reasonably
believes that nonpayment or nondischarge thereof could have or result in a
Material Adverse Effect.

         5.3      Books and Records. Each Credit Party shall keep adequate books
and records with respect to its business activities in which proper entries,
reflecting all financial transactions, are made in accordance with GAAP and on a
basis consistent with the Financial Statements attached as Disclosure Schedule
(3.4(a)).

         5.4      Insurance; Damage to or Destruction of Collateral.

         (a)      The Credit Parties shall, at their sole cost and expense,
maintain the policies of insurance described on Disclosure Schedule (3.18) as in
effect on the date hereof or otherwise in form and amounts customary for its
industry and with insurers reasonably acceptable to Agent. Such policies of
insurance (or the loss payable and additional insured endorsements delivered to
Agent) shall contain provisions pursuant to which the insurer agrees to provide
30 days prior written notice to Agent in the event of any non-renewal,
cancellation or amendment of any such insurance policy. If any Credit Party at
any time or times hereafter shall fail to obtain or maintain any of the policies
of insurance required above, or to pay all premiums relating thereto, Agent may
at any time or times thereafter obtain and maintain such policies of insurance
and pay such premiums and take any other action with respect thereto that Agent
deems advisable. Agent shall have no obligation to obtain insurance for any
Credit Party or pay any premiums therefor. By doing so, Agent shall not be
deemed to have waived any Default or Event of Default arising from any Credit
Party's failure to maintain such insurance or pay any premiums therefor. All
sums so disbursed, including reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs and

                                       32

<PAGE>

other charges related thereto, shall be payable on demand by Borrowers to Agent
and shall be additional Obligations hereunder secured by the Collateral.

         (b)      Agent reserves the right at any time upon any change in any
Credit Party's risk profile (including any change in the product mix maintained
by any Credit Party or any laws affecting the potential liability of such Credit
Party) to require additional forms and limits of insurance to, in Agent's
opinion, adequately protect both Agent's and Lender's interests in all or any
portion of the Collateral and to ensure that each Credit Party is protected by
insurance in amounts and with coverage customary for its industry. If reasonably
requested by Agent, each Credit Party shall deliver to Agent from time to time a
report of a reputable insurance broker, reasonably satisfactory to Agent, with
respect to its insurance policies.

         (c)      Each Credit Party shall deliver to Agent, in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent, endorsements to (i) all "All Risk"
and business interruption insurance naming Agent, on behalf of itself and
Lenders, as loss payee, and (ii) all general liability and other liability
policies naming Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders, as additional insured.
Each Credit Party irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints Agent (and all
officers, employees or agents designated by Agent), so long as any Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing or the anticipated insurance proceeds
exceed $500,000, as such Credit Party's true and lawful agent and
attorney-in-fact for the purpose of making, settling and adjusting claims under
such "All Risk" policies of insurance, endorsing the name of such Credit Party
on any check or other item of payment for the proceeds of such "All Risk"
policies of insurance and for making all determinations and decisions with
respect to such "All Risk" policies of insurance. Agent shall have no duty to
exercise any rights or powers granted to it pursuant to the foregoing
power-of-attorney. Borrower Representative shall promptly notify Agent of any
loss, damage, or destruction to the Collateral in the amount of $500,000 or
more, whether or not covered by insurance. After deducting from such proceeds
the expenses, if any, incurred by Agent in the collection or handling thereof,
Agent may, at its option, apply such proceeds to the reduction of the
Obligations in accordance with Section 1.3(d); provided that in the case of
insurance proceeds pertaining to any Credit Party that is not a Borrower, such
insurance proceeds shall be applied ratably to all of the Loans owing by
Borrowers, or permit or require the applicable Credit Party to use such money,
or any part thereof, to replace, repair, restore or rebuild the Collateral in a
diligent and expeditious manner with materials and workmanship of substantially
the same quality as existed before the loss, damage or destruction.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the casualty giving rise to such insurance
proceeds could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and
such insurance proceeds do not exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate, Agent shall
permit the applicable Credit Party to replace, restore, repair or rebuild the
property; provided that if such Credit Party shall not have completed or entered
into binding agreements to complete such replacement, restoration, repair or
rebuilding within 180 days of such casualty, Agent may apply such insurance
proceeds to the Obligations in accordance with Section 1.3(d); provided,
further, that in the case of insurance proceeds pertaining to any Credit Party
that is not a Borrower, such insurance proceeds shall be applied ratably to all
of the Loans owing by Borrowers. All insurance proceeds that are to be made
available to any Borrower to replace, repair, restore or rebuild the Collateral
shall be applied by Agent to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the
Revolving Loan of such Borrower (which application shall not result in a
permanent reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment). All insurance proceeds
made available to any Credit Party that is not a Borrower to replace, repair,
restore or rebuild Collateral

                                       33

<PAGE>

shall be deposited in a cash collateral account. Thereafter, such funds shall be
made available to Borrowers or such Credit Party to provide funds to replace,
repair, restore or rebuild the Collateral as follows: (i) Borrower
Representative shall request a Revolving Credit Advance or a release from the
cash collateral account be made to Borrowers or such Credit Party in the amount
requested to be released; and (ii) so long as the conditions set forth in
Section 2.2 have been met, Revolving Lenders shall make such Revolving Credit
Advance or Agent shall release funds from the cash collateral account. To the
extent not used to replace, repair, restore or rebuild the Collateral, such
insurance proceeds shall be applied in accordance with Section 1.3(d); provided
that in the case of insurance proceeds pertaining to any Credit Party that is
not a Borrower, such insurance proceeds shall be applied ratably to all of the
Loans owing by Borrowers.

         5.5      Compliance with Laws. Each Credit Party shall comply with all
federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations applicable to it,
including those relating to ERISA and labor matters and Environmental Laws and
Environmental Permits, except to the extent that the failure to comply,
individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

         5.6      Supplemental Disclosure. From time to time as may be
reasonably requested by Agent (which request will not be made more frequently
than once each year absent the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an
Event of Default), the Credit Parties shall supplement each Disclosure Schedule
hereto, or any representation herein or in any other Loan Document, with respect
to any matter hereafter arising that, if existing or occurring at the date of
this Agreement, would have been required to be set forth or described in such
Disclosure Schedule or as an exception to such representation or that is
necessary to correct any information in such Disclosure Schedule or
representation which has been rendered inaccurate thereby (and, in the case of
any supplements to any Disclosure Schedule, such Disclosure Schedule shall be
appropriately marked to show the changes made therein); provided that (a) no
such supplement to any such Disclosure Schedule or representation shall amend,
supplement or otherwise modify any Disclosure Schedule or representation, or be
or be deemed a waiver of any Default or Event of Default resulting from the
matters disclosed therein, except as consented to by Agent and Requisite Lenders
in writing, and (b) no supplement shall be required or permitted as to
representations and warranties that relate solely to the Closing Date.

         5.7      Intellectual Property. Each Credit Party will conduct its
business and affairs without infringement of or interference with any
Intellectual Property of any other Person in any material respect.

         5.8      Environmental Matters. Each Credit Party shall and shall cause
each Person within its control to: (a) conduct its operations and keep and
maintain its Real Estate in compliance with all Environmental Laws and
Environmental Permits other than noncompliance that could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; (b) implement any and all
investigation, remediation, removal and response actions that are appropriate or
necessary to maintain the value and marketability of the Real Estate or to
otherwise comply with Environmental Laws and Environmental Permits pertaining to
the presence, generation, treatment, storage, use, disposal, transportation or
Release of any Hazardous Material on, at, in, under, above, to, from or about
any of its Real Estate; (c) notify Agent promptly after such Credit Party
becomes aware of any violation of Environmental Laws or Environmental Permits or
any

                                       34

<PAGE>

Release on, at, in, under, above, to, from or about any Real Estate that is
reasonably likely to result in Environmental Liabilities in excess of $100,000;
and (d) promptly forward to Agent a copy of any order, notice, request for
information or any communication or report received by such Credit Party in
connection with any such violation or Release or any other matter relating to
any Environmental Laws or Environmental Permits that could reasonably be
expected to result in Environmental Liabilities in excess of $100,000, in each
case whether or not the Environmental Protection Agency or any Governmental
Authority has taken or threatened any action in connection with any such
violation, Release or other matter. If Agent at any time has a reasonable basis
to believe that there may be a violation of any Environmental Laws or
Environmental Permits by any Credit Party or any Environmental Liability arising
thereunder, or a Release of Hazardous Materials on, at, in, under, above, to,
from or about any of its Real Estate, that, in each case, could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, then each Credit Party shall, upon
Agent's written request (i) cause the performance of such environmental audits
including subsurface sampling of soil and groundwater, and preparation of such
environmental reports, at Borrowers' expense, as Agent may from time to time
reasonably request, which shall be conducted by reputable environmental
consulting firms reasonably acceptable to Agent and shall be in form and
substance reasonably acceptable to Agent, and (ii) permit Agent or its
representatives to have access to all Real Estate for the purpose of conducting
such environmental audits and testing as Agent deems appropriate, including
subsurface sampling of soil and groundwater. Borrowers shall reimburse Agent for
the costs of such audits and tests and the same will constitute a part of the
Obligations secured hereunder.

         5.9      Landlords' Agreements, Mortgagee Agreements, Bailee Letters
and Real Estate Purchases. For a period of six (6) months from and after the
Closing Date, each Credit Party shall reasonable best efforts to obtain, for
each leasehold location existing on the Closing Date, a landlord's agreement,
mortgagee agreement or bailee letter, as applicable, from the lessor of each
leased property, mortgagee of owned property or bailee with respect to any
warehouse, processor or converter facility or other location where Collateral is
stored or located, which agreement or letter shall contain a waiver or
subordination of all Liens or claims that the landlord, mortgagee or bailee may
assert against the Collateral at that location, and shall otherwise be
reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Agent; provided that no Credit
Party shall be required to pay any consent fees in connection therewith. From
and after the Closing Date, no real estate shall be leased by any Credit Party
unless and until a reasonably satisfactory landlord agreement shall first have
been obtained with respect to such location. Each Credit Party shall timely and
fully pay and perform its obligations in all material respects under all leases
and other agreements with respect to each leased location or public warehouse
where any Collateral is or may be located; provided that no such obligations
need be paid which is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings
and for which adequate reserves shall have been set aside on the appropriate
books, but only so long as such obligation does not become a Lien or charge
other than a Permitted Encumbrance, and no foreclosure, distraint, sale, or
similar proceedings shall have been commenced and remain unstayed for a period
thirty (30) days after such commencement. To the extent otherwise permitted
hereunder, if any Credit Party proposes to acquire a fee ownership interest in
Real Estate after the Closing Date, it shall, concurrently with such
acquisition, provide to Agent a mortgage or deed of trust granting Agent a first
priority Lien on such Real Estate, together with environmental audits, mortgage
title insurance commitment, real estate survey, local counsel opinion(s), and,
if required by Agent, supplemental casualty insurance and flood insurance, and
such other documents, instruments or

                                       35

agreements reasonably requested by Agent, in each case, in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to Agent.

         5.10     [Intentionally Omitted].

         5.11     Further Assurances. Each Credit Party executing this Agreement
agrees that it shall and shall cause each other Credit Party to, at such Credit
Party's expense and upon written request of Agent, duly execute and deliver, or
cause to be duly executed and delivered, to Agent such further instruments and
do and cause to be done such further acts as may be necessary or proper in the
reasonable opinion of Agent to carry out more effectively the provisions and
purposes of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

any financing or continuation statement filed in connection herewith seriously
misleading within the meaning of Section 9-503 of the Code or any other then
applicable provision of the Code except upon prior written notice to Agent and
Lenders and after Agent's written acknowledgment that any reasonable action
requested by Agent in connection therewith, including to continue the perfection
of any Liens in favor of Agent, on behalf of Lenders, in any Collateral, has
been completed or taken. No Credit Party shall change its Fiscal Year.

         6.16     No Impairment of Intercompany Transfers. No Credit Party shall

or the making or repayment of intercompany loans by a Subsidiary of any Borrower
to any Borrower or between Borrowers.

         6.17     No Speculative Transactions. No Credit Party shall engage in
any transaction involving commodity options, futures contracts or similar
transactions, except solely to hedge against fluctuations in the prices of
commodities owned or purchased by it and the values of foreign currencies

         6.18     Leases; Real Estate Purchases. No Credit Party shall enter
into any operating lease for Real Estate or modify, amend or supplement any
existing leases that would result in an increase in excess of ten percent (10%)

for scheduled escalations contained and reflected in the Projections approved by
Agent), except for (a) renewals or extensions of operating leases in effect as
of the Closing Date or (b) leases with respect to the number of proposed theater

respective Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, would exceed $500,000.

         6.19     Changes Relating to Debt; Material Contracts.

         (a)      No Credit Party shall change or amend the terms of any

interest rate on such Subordinated Debt; (ii) change the dates upon which

prepayment provisions of such Subordinated Debt other than to extend the dates

any security or collateral to secure payment of such Subordinated Debt; or (vi)
change or amend any other term if such change or amendment would materially
increase the obligations of the Credit Party thereunder or confer additional
material rights on the holder of such Subordinated Debt in a manner adverse to
any Credit Party, Agent or any Lender.

         (b)      No Credit Party shall change or amend the terms of any
Post-Confirmation Credit Agreement Document in any manner prohibited under the

shall be in effect until the Commitment Termination Date, and the Loans and all
other Obligations shall be automatically due and payable in full on such date.

         7.2      Survival of Obligations Upon Termination of Financing
Arrangements. Except as otherwise expressly provided for in the Loan Documents,
no termination or cancellation (regardless of cause or procedure) of any

and Lenders relating to any unpaid portion of the Loans or any other
Obligations, due or not due, liquidated, contingent or unliquidated, or any
transaction or event occurring prior to such termination, or any transaction or
event, the performance of which

                                       41

provided herein or in any other Loan Document, all undertakings, agreements,
covenants, warranties and representations of or binding upon the Credit Parties,

shall not terminate or expire, but rather shall survive any such termination or
cancellation and shall continue in full force and effect until the Termination
Date; provided, that the provisions of Section 11, the payment obligations under
Sections 1.15 and 1.16, and the indemnities contained in the Loan Documents
shall survive the Termination Date.

Guaranteed Indebtedness (other than the Obligations) of any Credit Party in
excess of $3,000,000 in the aggregate (including (x) undrawn committed or
available amounts and (y) amounts owing to all creditors under any combined or

Indebtedness or Guaranteed Indebtedness or a trustee to cause, Indebtedness or
Guaranteed Indebtedness or a portion thereof in excess of $3,000,000 in the
aggregate to become due prior to its stated maturity or prior to its regularly
scheduled dates of payment, or cash collateral in respect thereof to be
demanded, in each case (except with respect to the

                                       42

<PAGE>

Subordinated Debt Documents or the Post-Confirmation Credit Documents),
regardless of whether such default is waived, or such right is exercised, by

         (f)      Any representation or warranty herein or in any Loan Document

         8.2      Remedies.

         (a)      If any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, Agent may (and at the written request of the Requisite Lenders
shall), without notice, suspend the Revolving Loan facility with respect to
additional Advances and/or the incurrence of additional Letter of Credit
Obligations, whereupon any additional Advances and additional Letter of Credit
Obligations shall be made or incurred in Agent's sole discretion (or in the sole
discretion of the Requisite Lenders, if such suspension occurred at their
direction) so long as such Default or Event of Default is continuing. If any
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Agent may (and at the written
request of Requisite Lenders shall), without notice except as otherwise
expressly provided herein, increase the rate of interest applicable to the Loans
and the Letter of Credit Fees to the Default Rate.

         (b)      If any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Agent
may (and at the written request of the Requisite Lenders shall), without notice:
(i) terminate the Revolving Loan facility with respect to further Advances or
the incurrence of further Letter of Credit Obligations; (ii) declare all or any
portion of the Obligations, including all or any portion of any Loan to be
forthwith due and payable, and require that the Letter of Credit Obligations be
cash collateralized as provided in Annex B, all without presentment, demand,
protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by
Borrowers and each other Credit Party; or (iii) exercise any rights and remedies
provided to Agent under the Loan Documents or at law or equity, including all
remedies provided under the Code; provided, that upon the occurrence of an Event
of Default specified in Sections 8.1(h) or (i), the Revolving Loan facility
shall be immediately terminated and all of the Obligations, including the
aggregate Revolving Loan, shall become immediately due and payable without
declaration, notice or demand by any Person.

         8.3      Waivers by Credit Parties. Except as otherwise provided for in
this Agreement or by applicable law, each Credit Party waives (including for
purposes of Section 12): (a) presentment, demand and protest and notice of

extension or renewal of any or all commercial paper, accounts, contract rights,
documents, instruments, chattel paper and guaranties at any time held by Agent
on which any Credit Party may in any way be liable, and hereby ratifies and
confirms whatever Agent may do in this regard, (b) all rights to notice and a
hearing prior to Agent's taking possession or control

                                       44

<PAGE>

of, or to Agent's replevy, attachment or levy upon, the Collateral or any bond
or security that might be required by any court prior to allowing Agent to
exercise any of its remedies, and (c) the benefit of all valuation, appraisal,
marshaling and exemption laws.

9.   ASSIGNMENT AND PARTICIPATIONS; APPOINTMENT OF AGENT

         9.1      Assignment and Participations.

         (a)      Subject to the terms of this Section 9.1, any Lender may make
an assignment to a Qualified Assignee of, or sell participations in, at any time
or times, the Loan Documents, Loans, Letter of Credit Obligations and any
Commitment or any portion thereof or interest therein, including any Lender's
rights, title, interests, remedies, powers or duties thereunder. Any assignment
by a Lender shall: (i) require the consent of Agent (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed with respect to a Qualified Assignee) and so
long as no Default or Event of Default then exists, the consent of Borrowers
(which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) and
the execution of an assignment agreement (an "Assignment Agreement")
substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 9.1(a) and otherwise in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to, and acknowledged by, Agent; (ii)
be conditioned on such assignee Lender representing to the assigning Lender and
Agent that it is purchasing the applicable Loans to be assigned to it for its
own account, for investment purposes and not with a view to the distribution
thereof; (iii) after giving effect to any such partial assignment, the assignee
Lender shall have Commitments in an amount at least equal to $5,000,000 and the
assigning Lender shall have retained Commitments in an amount at least equal to
$5,000,000; (iv) include a payment to Agent of an assignment fee of $3,500. In
the case of an assignment by a Lender under this Section 9.1, the assignee shall
have, to the extent of such assignment, the same rights, benefits and
obligations as all other Lenders hereunder. The assigning Lender shall be
relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its Commitments or
assigned portion thereof from and after the date of such assignment. Each
Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that any assignment shall give rise to a
direct obligation of Borrowers to the assignee and that the assignee shall be
considered to be a "Lender". In all instances, each Lender's liability to make
Loans hereunder shall be several and not joint and shall be limited to such
Lender's Pro Rata Share of the applicable Commitment. In the event Agent or any
Lender assigns or otherwise transfers all or any part of the Obligations, Agent
or any such Lender shall so notify Borrowers and Borrowers shall, upon the
request of Agent or such Lender, execute new Notes in exchange for the Notes, if
any, being assigned. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section
9.1(a), any Lender may at any time pledge the Obligations held by it and such
Lender's rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to a Federal
Reserve Bank, and any Lender that is an investment fund may assign the
Obligations held by it and such Lender's rights under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents to another investment fund managed by the same investment
advisor; provided, that no such pledge to a Federal Reserve Bank shall release
such Lender from such Lender's obligations hereunder or under any other Loan
Document.

         (b)      Any participation by a Lender of all or any part of its
Commitments shall be made with the understanding that all amounts payable by
Borrowers hereunder shall be determined as if that Lender had not sold such
participation, and that the holder of any such participation shall not be
entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action

                                       45

<PAGE>

hereunder except actions directly affecting (i) any reduction in the principal
amount of, or interest rate or Fees payable with respect to, any Loan in which
such holder participates, (ii) any extension of the scheduled amortization of
the principal amount of any Loan in which such holder participates or the final
maturity date thereof, and (iii) any release of all or substantially all of the
Collateral (other than in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the
Collateral Documents or the other Loan Documents). Solely for purposes of
Sections 1.13, 1.15, 1.16 and 9.8, each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that a
participation shall give rise to a direct obligation of Borrowers to the
participant and the participant shall be considered to be a "Lender;" provided,
however, that all amounts payable by the Borrowers to any Participant under
Section 1.15 and 1.16 hereof shall be determined as if such Lender from whom
such Participant purchased such participation had not sold such participation.
Except as set forth in the preceding sentence no Borrower or Credit Party shall
have any obligation or duty to any participant. Neither Agent nor any Lender
(other than the Lender selling a participation) shall have any duty to any
participant and may continue to deal solely with the Lender selling a
participation as if no such sale had occurred.

         (c)      Except as expressly provided in this Section 9.1, no Lender
shall, as between Borrowers and that Lender, or Agent and that Lender, be
relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any sale,
assignment, transfer or negotiation of, or granting of participation in, all or
any part of the Loans, the Notes or other Obligations owed to such Lender.

         (d)      Each Credit Party executing this Agreement shall assist, at
any time and from time to time, any Lender permitted to sell assignments or
participations under this Section 9.1 as reasonably required to enable the
assigning or selling Lender to effect any such assignment or participation,
including the execution and delivery of any and all agreements, notes and other
documents and instruments as shall be requested and, in the case of a Lender who
was a Lender on the Closing Date, if requested by Agent, the preparation of
informational materials for, and the participation of management in meetings
with, potential assignees or participants. Each Credit Party executing this
Agreement shall certify the correctness, completeness and accuracy of all
descriptions of the Credit Parties and their respective affairs contained in any
selling materials provided by them and all other information provided by them
and included in such materials, except that any Projections delivered by
Borrowers shall only be certified by Borrowers as having been prepared by
Borrowers in compliance with the representations contained in Section 3.4(c).

         (e)      Any Lender may furnish any information concerning Credit
Parties in the possession of such Lender from time to time to assignees and
participants (including prospective assignees and participants); provided that
such Lender shall obtain from assignees or participants confidentiality
covenants substantially equivalent to those contained in Section 11.8.

         (f)      So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
no Lender shall assign or sell participations in any portion of its Loans or
Commitments to a potential Lender or participant, if, as of the date of the
proposed assignment or sale, the assignee Lender or participant would be subject
to capital adequacy or similar requirements under Section 1.16(a), increased
costs under Section 1.16(b), an inability to fund LIBOR Loans under Section
1.16(c), or withholding taxes in accordance with Section 1.15(a).

                                       46

<PAGE>

         (g)      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any
Lender (a "Granting Lender"), may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an
"SPC"), identified as such in writing by the Granting Lender to Agent and
Borrowers, the option to provide to Borrowers all or any part of any Loans that
such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to Borrowers pursuant
to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a
commitment by any SPC to make any Loan; (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise
such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the
Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms
hereof, (iii) an SPC shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or
omit to take any action hereunder except actions directly affecting (A) any
reduction in the principal amount of, or interest rate or Fees payable with
respect to, any Loan in which such SPC participates, (B) any extension of the
scheduled amortization of the principal amount of any Loan in which such SPC
participates or the final maturity date thereof, and (C) any release of all or
substantially all of the Collateral (other than in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement, the Collateral Documents or the other Loan Documents). The
making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the
Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if such Loan were made by such
Granting Lender. No SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment
obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the
Granting Lender). Any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written
consent of, Borrowers and Agent and assign all or a portion of its interests in
any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to
by Borrowers and Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the
account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii)
disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its
Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety,
guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. This Section 9.1(g)
may not be amended without the prior written consent of each Granting Lender,
all or any of whose Loans are being funded by an SPC at the time of such
amendment. For the avoidance of doubt, the Granting Lender shall for all
purposes, including without limitation, the approval of any amendment or waiver
of any provision of any Loan Document or the obligation to pay any amount
otherwise payable by the Granting Lender under the Loan Documents, continue to
be the Lender of record hereunder.

         9.2      Appointment of Agent. GE Capital is hereby appointed to act on
behalf of all Lenders as Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. The provisions of this Section 9.2 are solely for the benefit of
Agent and Lenders and no Credit Party nor any other Person shall have any rights
as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof. In performing its
functions and duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Agent
shall act solely as an agent of Lenders and does not assume and shall not be
deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust
with or for any Credit Party or any other Person. Agent shall have no duties or
responsibilities except for those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents. The duties of Agent shall be mechanical and administrative
in nature and Agent shall not have, or be deemed to have, by reason of this
Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise a fiduciary relationship in
respect of any Lender. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not
be liable for failure to disclose, any information relating to any Credit Party
or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any Account Debtor that is
communicated to or obtained by GE Capital or any of its Affiliates in any
capacity. Neither Agent nor any of its Affiliates nor any of their respective
officers, directors, employees, agents or

                                       47

<PAGE>

representatives shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted to
be taken by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or in connection
herewith or therewith, except for damages caused by its or their own gross
negligence or willful misconduct.

         If Agent shall request instructions from Requisite Lenders or all
affected Lenders with respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in
connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, then Agent shall be
entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until Agent
shall have received instructions from Requisite Lenders or all affected Lenders,
as the case may be, and Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason
of so refraining. Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take
any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document (a) if such action would,
in the opinion of Agent, be contrary to law or the terms of this Agreement or
any other Loan Document, (b) if such action would, in the opinion of Agent,
expose Agent to Environmental Liabilities or (c) if Agent shall not first be
indemnified to its satisfaction against any and all liability and expense which
may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.
Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action
whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or refraining from acting
hereunder or under any other Loan Document in accordance with the instructions
of Requisite Lenders or all affected Lenders, as applicable.

         9.3      Agent's Reliance, Etc. Neither Agent nor any of its Affiliates
nor any of their respective 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 or the other Loan Documents, except for damages
caused by its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent: (a) may treat the payee of any
Note as the holder thereof until Agent receives written notice of the assignment
or transfer thereof signed by such payee and in form reasonably satisfactory to
Agent; (b) may consult with legal counsel, independent public accountants and
other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or
omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such
counsel, accountants or experts; (c) makes no warranty or representation to any
Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any statements, warranties
or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents; (d) 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 or the other Loan Documents on the part of any Credit Party or to
inspect the Collateral (including the books and records) of any Credit Party;
(e) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality,
validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or
the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant
hereto or thereto; and (f) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents by acting upon any notice, consent,
certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telecopy, telegram,
cable or telex) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper
party or parties.

         9.4      GE Capital and Affiliates. With respect to its Commitments
hereunder, GE Capital shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents as any other Lender and may exercise the same as
though it were not Agent; and the term "Lender" or "Lenders" shall, unless
otherwise expressly indicated, include GE Capital in its individual capacity. GE
Capital and its Affiliates may lend money to, invest in, and generally engage in
any kind of business with, any Credit Party, any of their Affiliates and any
Person who

may do business with or own securities of any Credit Party or any such
Affiliate, all as if GE Capital were not Agent and without any duty to account
therefor to Lenders. GE Capital and its Affiliates may accept fees and other
consideration from any Credit Party for services in connection with this
Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders.

         9.5      Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has,
independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender and based on
the Financial Statements referred to in Section 3.4(a) and such other documents
and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit and financial
analysis of the Credit Parties and its own decision to enter into this
Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without
reliance upon 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. Each
Lender acknowledges the potential conflict of interest of each other Lender as a
result of Lenders holding disproportionate interests in the Loans, and expressly
consents to, and waives any claim based upon, such conflict of interest.

         9.6      Indemnification. Lenders agree to indemnify Agent (to the
extent not reimbursed by Credit Parties and without limiting the obligations of
Borrowers hereunder), ratably according to their respective Pro Rata Shares,
from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any
kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted
against Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any
other Loan Document or any action taken or omitted to be taken by Agent in
connection therewith; 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 Agent's gross
negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender
agrees to reimburse Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any
out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred by Agent in
connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration,
modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal
proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or
responsibilities under, this Agreement and each other Loan Document, to the
extent that Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by Credit Parties.

         9.7      Successor Agent. Agent may resign at any time by giving not
less than 30 days' prior written notice thereof to Lenders and Borrower
Representative. Upon any such resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall have the
right to appoint a successor Agent and provided no Default or Event of Default
then exists with Borrower's consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, delayed or conditioned. If no successor Agent shall have been so
appointed by the Requisite Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment
within 30 days after the resigning Agent's giving notice of resignation, then
the resigning Agent may, on behalf of Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which
shall be a Lender, if a Lender is willing to accept such appointment, or
otherwise shall be a commercial bank or financial institution or a subsidiary of
a commercial bank or financial institution if such commercial bank or financial
institution is organized under the laws of the United States of America or of
any State thereof and has a combined capital and surplus of at least
$300,000,000. If no successor Agent has been appointed pursuant to the
foregoing, within 30 days after the date such notice of resignation was

                                       49

<PAGE>

given by the resigning Agent, such resignation shall become effective and the
Requisite Lenders shall thereafter perform all the duties of Agent hereunder
until such time, if any, as the Requisite Lenders appoint a successor Agent as
provided above. Any successor Agent appointed by Requisite Lenders hereunder
shall be subject to the approval of Borrower Representative, such approval not
to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that such approval shall not be
required if a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent,
such successor Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights,
powers, privileges and duties of the resigning Agent. Upon the earlier of the
acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent or the
effective date of the resigning Agent's resignation, the resigning Agent shall
be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents, except that any indemnity rights or other rights in favor of
such resigning Agent shall continue. After any resigning Agent's resignation
hereunder, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any
actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Agent under
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

         9.8      Setoff and Sharing of Payments. In addition to any rights now
or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any
such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of
Default and subject to Section 9.9(f), each Lender is hereby authorized at any
time or from time to time, without notice to any Credit Party or to any other
Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to offset and to
appropriate and to apply any and all balances held by it at any of its offices
for the account of any Borrower or Guarantor (regardless of whether such
balances are then due to such Borrower or Guarantor) and any other properties or
assets at any time held or owing by that Lender or that holder to or for the
credit or for the account of any Borrower or Guarantor against and on account of
any of the Obligations that are not paid when due. Any Lender exercising a right
of setoff or otherwise receiving any payment on account of the Obligations in
excess of its Pro Rata Share thereof shall purchase for cash (and the other
Lenders or holders shall sell) such participations in each such other Lender's
or holder's Pro Rata Share of the Obligations as would be necessary to cause
such Lender to share the amount so offset or otherwise received with each other
Lender or holder in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares (other than
offset rights exercised by any Lender with respect to Sections 1.13, 1.15 or
1.16). Each Credit Party that is a Borrower or Guarantor agrees, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, that (a) any Lender may exercise its right to offset
with respect to amounts in excess of its Pro Rata Share of the Obligations and
may sell participations in such amounts so offset to other Lenders and holders
and (b) any Lender so purchasing a participation in the Loans made or other
Obligations held by other Lenders or holders may exercise all rights of offset,
bankers' lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation
as fully as if such Lender or holder were a direct holder of the Loans and the
other Obligations in the amount of such participation. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if all or any portion of the offset amount or payment otherwise
received is thereafter recovered from the Lender that has exercised the right of
offset, the purchase of participations by that Lender shall be rescinded and the
purchase price restored without interest.

         9.9      Advances; Payments; Non-Funding Lenders; Information; Actions
in Concert.

         (a)      Advances; Payments.

                  (i)      Revolving Lenders shall refund or participate in the
Swing Line Loan in accordance with clauses (iii) and (iv) of Section 1.1(c). If
the Swing Line Lender declines to make a Swing Line Loan or if Swing Line
Availability is zero, Agent shall notify Revolving Lenders, promptly after
receipt of a Notice of Revolving Credit Advance and in any event prior to 1:00
p.m. (New York time) on the date such Notice of Revolving Advance is received,
by telecopy, telephone or other similar form of transmission. Each Revolving
Lender shall make the amount of such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such Revolving
Credit Advance available to Agent in same day funds by wire transfer to Agent's
account as set forth in Annex H not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the
requested funding date, in the case of an Index Rate Loan, and not later than
11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the requested funding date, in the case of a LIBOR
Loan. After receipt of such wire transfers (or, in the Agent's sole discretion,
before receipt of such wire transfers), subject to the terms hereof, Agent shall
make the requested Revolving Credit Advance to the Borrower designated by
Borrower Representative in the Notice of Revolving Credit Advance. All payments
by each Revolving Lender shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or deduction
of any kind.

                  (ii)     On the 2nd Business Day of each calendar week or more
frequently at Agent's election (each, a "Settlement Date"), Agent shall advise
each Lender by telephone, or telecopy of the amount of such Lender's Pro Rata
Share of principal, interest and Fees paid for the benefit of Lenders with
respect to each applicable Loan. Provided that each Lender has funded all
payments or Advances required to be made by it and has purchased all
participations required to be purchased by it under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents as of such Settlement Date, Agent shall pay to each Lender such
Lender's Pro Rata Share of principal, interest and Fees paid by Borrowers since
the previous Settlement Date for the benefit of such Lender on the Loans held by
it. To the extent that any Lender (a "Non-Funding Lender") has failed to fund
all such payments and Advances or failed to fund the purchase of all such
participations, Agent shall be entitled to set off the funding short-fall
against that Non-Funding Lender's Pro Rata Share of all payments received from
Borrowers. Such payments shall be made by wire transfer to such Lender's account
(as specified by such Lender in Annex H or the applicable Assignment Agreement)
not later than 1:00 p.m. (Chicago time) 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the next
Business Day following each Settlement Date.

         (b)      Availability of Lender's Pro Rata Share. Agent may assume that
each Revolving Lender will make its Pro Rata Share of each Revolving Credit
Advance available to Agent on each funding date. If such Pro Rata Share is not,
in fact, paid to Agent by such Revolving Lender when due, Agent will be entitled
to recover such amount on demand from such Revolving Lender without setoff,
counterclaim or deduction of any kind. If any Revolving Lender fails to pay the
amount of its Pro Rata Share forthwith upon Agent's demand, Agent shall promptly
notify Borrower Representative and Borrowers shall immediately repay such amount
to Agent. Nothing in this Section 9.9(b) or elsewhere in this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents shall be deemed to require Agent to advance funds on behalf
of any Revolving Lender or to relieve any Revolving Lender from its obligation
to fulfill its Commitments

                                       51
<PAGE>

hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Borrowers may have against any
Revolving Lender as a result of any default by such Revolving Lender hereunder.
To the extent that Agent advances funds to any Borrower on behalf of any
Revolving Lender and is not reimbursed therefor on the same Business Day as such
Advance is made, Agent shall be entitled to retain for its account all interest
accrued on such Advance until reimbursed by the applicable Revolving Lender.

         (c)      Return of Payments.

                  (i)      If Agent pays an amount to a Lender under this
Agreement in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been or will
be received by Agent from Borrowers and such related payment is not received by
Agent, then Agent will be entitled to recover such amount from such Lender on
demand without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

                  (ii)     If Agent determines at any time that any amount
received by Agent under this Agreement must be returned to any Borrower or paid
to any other Person pursuant to any insolvency law or otherwise, then,
notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, Agent will not be required to distribute any portion thereof to any
Lender. In addition, each Lender will repay to Agent on demand any portion of
such amount that Agent has distributed to such Lender, together with interest at
such rate, if any, as Agent is required to pay to any Borrower or such other
Person, without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

         (d)      Non-Funding Lenders. The failure of any Non-Funding Lender to
make any Revolving Credit Advance or any payment required by it hereunder or to
purchase any participation in any Swing Line Loan to be made or purchased by it
on the date specified therefor shall not relieve any other Lender (each such
other Revolving Lender, an "Other Lender") of its obligations to make such
Advance or purchase such participation on such date, but neither any Other
Lender nor Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any Non-Funding Lender
to make an Advance, purchase a participation or make any other payment required
hereunder. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, a
Non-Funding Lender shall not have any voting or consent rights under or with
respect to any Loan Document or constitute a "Lender" or a "Revolving Lender"
(or be included in the calculation of "Requisite Lenders" hereunder) for any
voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document. At Borrower
Representative's request, Agent or a Person reasonably acceptable to Agent shall
have the right with Agent's consent and in Agent's sole discretion (but shall
have no obligation) to purchase from any Non-Funding Lender, and each
Non-Funding Lender agrees that it shall, at Agent's request, sell and assign to
Agent or such Person, all of the Commitments of that Non-Funding Lender for an
amount equal to the principal balance of all Loans held by such Non-Funding
Lender and all accrued interest and fees with respect thereto through the date
of sale, such purchase and sale to be consummated pursuant to an executed
Assignment Agreement.

         (e)      Dissemination of Information. Agent shall use reasonable
efforts to provide Lenders with any notice of Default or Event of Default
received by Agent from, or delivered by Agent to, any Credit Party, with notice
of any Event of Default of which Agent has actually become aware and with notice
of any action taken by Agent following any Event of Default; provided, that
Agent shall not be liable to any Lender for any failure to do so, except to

                                       52
<PAGE>

the extent that such failure is attributable to Agent's gross negligence or
willful misconduct. Lenders acknowledge that Borrowers are required to provide
Financial Statements and Collateral Reports to Lenders in accordance with
Annexes E and F hereto and agree that Agent shall have no duty to provide the
same to Lenders.

         (f)      Actions in Concert. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding, each Lender hereby agrees with each other Lender that no Lender
shall take any action to protect or enforce its rights arising out of this
Agreement or the Notes (including exercising any rights of setoff) without first
obtaining the prior written consent of Agent and Requisite Lenders, it being the
intent of Lenders that any such action to protect or enforce rights under this
Agreement and the Notes shall be taken in concert and at the direction or with
the consent of Agent or Requisite Lenders.

10.      SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS

         10.1     Successors and Assigns. This Agreement and the other Loan
Documents shall be binding on and shall inure to the benefit of each Credit
Party, Agent, Lenders and their respective successors and assigns (including, in
the case of any Credit Party, a debtor-in-possession on behalf of such Credit
Party), except as otherwise provided herein or therein. No Credit Party may
assign, transfer, hypothecate or otherwise convey its rights, benefits,
obligations or duties hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents without
the prior express written consent of Agent and Lenders. Any such purported
assignment, transfer, hypothecation or other conveyance by any Credit Party
without the prior express written consent of Agent and Lenders shall be void.
The terms and provisions of this Agreement are for the purpose of defining the
relative rights and obligations of each Credit Party, Agent and Lenders with
respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and no Person shall be a third
party beneficiary of any of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or any of
the other Loan Documents.

11.      MISCELLANEOUS

Documents constitute the complete agreement between the parties with respect to
the subject matter thereof and may not be modified, altered or amended except as
set forth in Section 11.2. Any letter of interest, commitment letter, or fee
letter (other than the GE Capital Letter) or confidentiality agreement, if any,
between any Credit Party and Agent or any Lender or any of their respective
Affiliates, predating this Agreement and relating to a financing of
substantially similar form, purpose or effect shall be superseded by this
Agreement.

         11.2     Amendments and Waivers.

         (a)      Except for actions expressly permitted to be taken by Agent,
no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any consent to any departure by any
Credit Party therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be
in writing and signed by Agent and Borrowers, and by Requisite Lenders or all
affected Lenders, as applicable. Except as set forth in clauses (b) and

                                       53
<PAGE>

(c) below, all such amendments, modifications, terminations or waivers requiring
the consent of any Lenders shall require the written consent of Requisite
Lenders.

         (b)      No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of or
consent with respect to any provision of this Agreement that waives compliance
with the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2.2 to the making of any Loan
or the incurrence of any Letter of Credit Obligations shall be effective unless
the same shall be in writing and signed by Agent, Requisite Lenders and
Borrowers. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary,
no waiver or consent with respect to any Default or any Event of Default shall
be effective for purposes of the conditions precedent to the making of Loans or
the incurrence of Letter of Credit Obligations set forth in Section 2.2 unless
the same shall be in writing and signed by Agent, Requisite Lenders and
Borrowers.

         (c)      No amendment, modification, termination or waiver shall,
unless in writing and signed by Agent and each Lender directly affected thereby:
(i) increase the principal amount of any Lender's Commitment (which action shall
be deemed to directly affect all Lenders; (ii) reduce the principal of, rate of
interest on or Fees payable with respect to any Loan or Letter of Credit

any affected Lender; (iv) waive, forgive, defer, extend or postpone any payment
of interest or Fees as to any affected Lender; (v) release any Guaranty or,
except as otherwise permitted herein or in the other Loan Documents, release, or
permit any Credit Party to sell or otherwise dispose of, any Collateral with a
value exceeding $5,000,000 in the aggregate (which action shall be deemed to
directly affect all Lenders); (vi) change the percentage of the Commitments or
of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans that shall be required for
Lenders or any of them to take any action hereunder; and (vii) amend or waive
this Section 11.2 or the definition of the term "Requisite Lenders" insofar as
such definition affect the substance of this Section 11.2. Furthermore, no
amendment, modification, termination or waiver affecting the rights or duties of
Agent or L/C Issuer under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be
effective unless in writing and signed by Agent or L/C Issuer, as the case may
be, in addition to Lenders required hereinabove to take such action. Each
amendment, modification, termination or waiver shall be effective only in the
specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No
amendment, modification, termination or waiver shall be required for Agent to
take additional Collateral pursuant to any Loan Document. No amendment,
modification, termination or waiver of any provision of any Note shall be
effective without the written concurrence of the holder of that Note. No notice
to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle such Credit Party or
any other Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or
other circumstances. Any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent
effected in accordance with this Section 11.2 shall be binding upon each holder
of the Notes at the time outstanding and each future holder of the Notes.

         (d)      If, in connection with any proposed amendment, modification,
waiver or termination (a "Proposed Change"):

                  (i)      requiring the consent of all affected Lenders, the
consent of Requisite Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other Lenders whose
consent is required is not

                                       54
<PAGE>

obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained as described in this
clause (i) and in clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) below being referred to as a
"Non-Consenting Lender"),

                  (ii)     requiring the consent of Requisite Lenders, the
consent of Lenders holding 51% or more of the aggregate Commitments is obtained,
but the consent of Requisite Lenders is not obtained,

then, so long as Agent is not a Non-Consenting Lender, at Borrower
Representative's request, Agent or a Person reasonably acceptable to Agent shall
have the right with Agent's consent and in Agent's sole discretion (but shall
have no obligation) to purchase from such Non-Consenting Lenders, and such
Non-Consenting Lenders agree that they shall, upon Agent's request, sell and
assign to Agent or such Person, all of the Commitments of such Non-Consenting
Lenders for an amount equal to the principal balance of all Loans held by the
Non-Consenting Lenders and all accrued interest and Fees with respect thereto
through the date of sale, such purchase and sale to be consummated pursuant to
an executed Assignment Agreement.

         (e)      Upon payment in full in cash and performance of all of the
Obligations (other than indemnification Obligations), termination of the
Commitments and a release of all claims against Agent and Lenders, and so long
as no suits, actions, proceedings or claims are pending or threatened against
any Indemnified Person asserting any damages, losses or liabilities that are
Indemnified Liabilities, Agent shall deliver to Borrowers termination
statements, mortgage releases and other documents necessary or appropriate to
evidence the termination of the Liens securing payment of the Obligations.

         11.3     Fees and Expenses. Borrowers shall reimburse (i) Agent for all
reasonable fees, costs and expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses
of all of its counsel, advisors, consultants and auditors) and (ii) Agent (and,
with respect to clauses (c) and (d) below, all Lenders) for all fees, costs and
expenses, including the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of counsel or other
advisors (including environmental and management consultants and appraisers),
incurred in connection with the negotiation and preparation of the Loan
Documents and incurred in connection with:

         (a)      the forwarding to Borrowers or any other Person on behalf of
Borrowers by Agent of the proceeds of any Loan (including a wire transfer fee of
$25 per wire transfer);

         (b)      any amendment, modification or waiver of, consent with respect
to, or termination of, any of the Loan Documents or Related Transactions
Documents or advice in connection with the syndication and administration of the
Loans made pursuant hereto or its rights hereunder or thereunder;

         (c)      any litigation, contest, dispute, suit, proceeding or action
(whether instituted by Agent, any Lender, any Borrower or any other Person and
whether as a party, witness or otherwise) in any way relating to the Collateral,
any of the Loan Documents or any other agreement to be executed or delivered in
connection herewith or therewith, including any litigation, contest, dispute,
suit, case, proceeding or action, and any appeal or review thereof, in
connection with a case commenced by or against any or all of the Borrowers or
any other Person that may be obligated to Agent by virtue of the Loan Documents;
including any such litigation,

                                       55
<PAGE>

contest, dispute, suit, proceeding or action arising in connection with any
work-out or restructuring of the Loans during the pendency of one or more Events
of Default; provided that in the case of reimbursement of counsel for Lenders
other than Agent, such reimbursement shall be limited to one counsel for all
such Lenders; provided, further, that no Person shall be entitled to
reimbursement under this clause (c) in respect of any litigation, contest,
dispute, suit, proceeding or action to the extent any of the foregoing results
from such Person's gross negligence or willful misconduct;

         (d)      any attempt to enforce any remedies of Agent against any or
all of the Credit Parties or any other Person that may be obligated to Agent or
any Lender by virtue of any of the Loan Documents, including any such attempt to
enforce any such remedies in the course of any work-out or restructuring of the
Loans during the pendency of one or more Events of Default; provided, that in
the case of reimbursement of counsel for Lenders other than Agent, such
reimbursement shall be limited to one counsel for all such Lenders;

         (e)      any workout or restructuring of the Loans during the pendency
of one or more Events of Default; and

         (f)      efforts to (i) monitor the Loans or any of the other
Obligations, (ii) evaluate, observe or assess any of the Credit Parties or their
respective affairs, and (iii) verify, protect, evaluate, assess, appraise,
collect, sell, liquidate or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral;

including, as to each of clauses (a) through (f) above, all reasonable
attorneys' and other professional and service providers' fees arising from such
services and other advice, assistance or other representation, including those
in connection with any appellate proceedings, and all expenses, costs, charges
and other fees incurred by such counsel and others in connection with or
relating to any of the events or actions described in this Section 11.3, all of
which shall be payable, on demand, by Borrowers to Agent. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, such expenses, costs, charges and fees may include:
fees, costs and expenses of accountants, environmental advisors, appraisers,
investment bankers, management and other consultants and paralegals; court costs
and expenses; photocopying and duplication expenses; court reporter fees, costs
and expenses; long distance telephone charges; air express charges; telegram or
telecopy charges; secretarial overtime charges; and expenses for travel, lodging
and food paid or incurred in connection with the performance of such legal or
other advisory services.

         11.4     No Waiver. Agent's or any Lender's failure, at any time or
times, to require strict performance by the Credit Parties of any provision of
this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect or diminish
any right of Agent or such Lender thereafter to demand strict compliance and
performance herewith or therewith. Any suspension or waiver of an Event of
Default shall not suspend, waive or affect any other Event of Default whether
the same is prior or subsequent thereto and whether the same or of a different
type. Subject to the provisions of Section 11.2, none of the undertakings,
agreements, warranties, covenants and representations of any Credit Party
contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and no Default or
Event of Default by any Credit Party shall be deemed to have been suspended or
waived by Agent or any Lender, unless such waiver or suspension is by an

                                       56
<PAGE>

instrument in writing signed by an officer of or other authorized employee of
Agent and the applicable required Lenders, and directed to Borrowers specifying
such suspension or waiver.

         11.5     Remedies. Agent's and Lenders' rights and remedies under this
Agreement shall be cumulative and nonexclusive of any other rights and remedies
that Agent or any Lender may have under any other agreement, including the other
Loan Documents, by operation of law or otherwise. Recourse to the Collateral
shall not be required.

         11.6     Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be interpreted in such a manner as
to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be prohibited by or invalid under
applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such
prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision
or the remaining provisions of this Agreement or such other Loan Document.

         11.7     Conflict of Terms. Except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents by specific reference to the
applicable provisions of this Agreement, if any provision contained in this
Agreement conflicts with any provision in any of the other Loan Documents, the
provision contained in this Agreement shall govern and control.

         11.8     Confidentiality. Agent and each Lender agree to use
commercially reasonable efforts (equivalent to the efforts Agent or such Lender
applies to maintaining the confidentiality of its own confidential information)
to maintain as confidential all confidential information provided to them by the
Credit Parties and designated as confidential following receipt thereof, except
that Agent and any Lender may disclose such information (a) to Persons employed
or engaged by Agent or such Lender; (b) to any bona fide assignee or participant
or potential assignee or participant that has agreed to comply with the covenant
contained in this Section 11.8 (and any such bona fide assignee or participant
or potential assignee or participant may disclose such information to Persons
employed or engaged by them as described in clause (a) above); (c) as required
or requested by any Governmental Authority or reasonably believed by Agent or
such Lender to be compelled by any court decree, subpoena or legal or
administrative order or process; (d) as, on the advice of Agent's or such
Lender's counsel, is required by law; (e) in connection with the exercise of any
right or remedy under the Loan Documents or in connection with any Litigation to
which Agent or such Lender is a party; or (f) that ceases to be confidential
through no fault of Agent or any Lender.

         11.9     GOVERNING LAW. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN ANY
OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, IN ALL RESPECTS, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION,
VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE OBLIGATIONS SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF
THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED IN THAT STATE
AND ANY APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. EACH CREDIT PARTY
HEREBY CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN CITY OF
ATLANTA, COUNTY OF FULTON SHALL HAVE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND
DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN THE CREDIT PARTIES, AGENT AND

                                       57
<PAGE>

LENDERS PERTAINING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR TO
ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENTS; PROVIDED, THAT AGENT, LENDERS AND THE CREDIT PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT
ANY APPEALS FROM THOSE COURTS MAY HAVE TO BE HEARD BY A COURT LOCATED OUTSIDE OF
FULTON COUNTY; PROVIDED FURTHER, THAT NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED
OR OPERATE TO PRECLUDE AGENT FROM BRINGING SUIT OR TAKING OTHER LEGAL ACTION IN
ANY OTHER JURISDICTION TO REALIZE ON THE COLLATERAL OR ANY OTHER SECURITY FOR
THE OBLIGATIONS, OR TO ENFORCE A JUDGMENT OR OTHER COURT ORDER IN FAVOR OF
AGENT. EACH CREDIT PARTY EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH
JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR SUIT COMMENCED IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND EACH CREDIT
PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT SUCH CREDIT PARTY MAY HAVE BASED UPON
LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION, IMPROPER VENUE OR FORUM NON CONVENIENS AND HEREBY
CONSENTS TO THE GRANTING OF SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE RELIEF AS IS DEEMED
APPROPRIATE BY SUCH COURT. EACH CREDIT PARTY HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF
THE SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER PROCESS ISSUED IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR SUIT AND
AGREES THAT SERVICE OF SUCH SUMMONS, COMPLAINTS AND OTHER PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY
REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO SUCH CREDIT PARTY AT THE ADDRESS SET
FORTH IN ANNEX I OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED
COMPLETED UPON THE EARLIER OF SUCH CREDIT PARTY'S ACTUAL RECEIPT THEREOF OR 3
DAYS AFTER DEPOSIT IN THE UNITED STATES MAILS, PROPER POSTAGE PREPAID.

         11.10    Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein, whenever it is
provided herein that any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration
or other communication shall or may be given to or served upon any of the
parties by any other parties, or whenever any of the parties desires to give or
serve upon any other parties any communication with respect to this Agreement,
each such notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other
communication shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been validly
served, given or delivered: (a) upon the earlier of actual receipt and 3
Business Days after deposit in the United States Mail, registered or certified
mail, return receipt requested, with proper postage prepaid; (b) upon
transmission, when sent by telecopy or other similar facsimile transmission
(with such telecopy or facsimile promptly confirmed by delivery of a copy by
personal delivery or United States Mail as otherwise provided in this Section
11.10); (c) 1 Business Day after deposit with a reputable overnight courier with
all charges prepaid or (d) when delivered, if hand-delivered by messenger, all
of which shall be addressed to the party to be notified and sent to the address
or facsimile number indicated in Annex I or to such other address (or facsimile
number) as may be substituted by notice given as herein provided. The giving of
any notice required hereunder may be waived in writing by the party entitled to
receive such notice. Failure or delay in delivering copies of any notice,
demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication to any
Person (other than Borrower Representative or Agent) designated in Annex I to
receive copies shall in no way adversely affect the effectiveness of such

         11.11    Section Titles. The Section titles and Table of Contents
contained in this Agreement are and shall be without substantive meaning or
content of any kind whatsoever and are not a part of the agreement between the
parties hereto.

         11.12    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
separate counterparts, each of which shall collectively and separately
constitute one agreement. Delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereto by
facsimile transmission shall be deemed delivery of an originally executed
counterpart hereto.

         11.13    WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION
WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED
BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND
FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT
THEIR DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE,
TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF
ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION,
SUIT, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER SOUNDING IN
CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, AMONG AGENT, LENDERS AND ANY CREDIT PARTY ARISING
OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED TO, OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP
ESTABLISHED AMONG THEM IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO.

         11.14    Press Releases and Related Matters. Each Credit Party
executing this Agreement agrees that neither it nor its Affiliates will in the
future issue any press releases or other public disclosure using the name of GE
Capital or its affiliates or referring to this Agreement, the other Loan
Documents or the Related Transactions Documents without at least 2 Business
Days' prior notice to GE Capital and without the prior written consent of GE
Capital unless (and only to the extent that) such Credit Party or Affiliate is
required to do so under law and then, in any event, such Credit Party or
Affiliate will consult with GE Capital before issuing such press release or
other public disclosure. Each Credit Party consents to the publication by Agent
or any Lender of a tombstone or similar advertising material relating to the
financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Agent reserves the right
to provide to industry trade organizations information necessary and customary
for inclusion in league table measurements.

         11.15    Reinstatement. This Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against
any Borrower for liquidation or reorganization, should any Borrower become
insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or
should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of any
Borrower's assets, and shall continue to be effective or to be reinstated, as
the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Obligations, or
any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in
amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the
Obligations, whether as a "voidable preference," "fraudulent conveyance," or
otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the
event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or
returned, the Obligations shall be

                                       59
<PAGE>

reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded,
reduced, restored or returned.

         11.16    Advice of Counsel. Each of the parties represents to each
other party hereto that it has discussed this Agreement and, specifically, the
provisions of Sections 11.9 and 11.13, with its counsel.

         11.17    No Strict Construction. The parties hereto have participated
jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an
ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall
be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or
burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the
authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.

12.      CROSS-GUARANTY

         12.1     Cross-Guaranty. Each Borrower hereby agrees that such Borrower
is jointly and severally liable for, and hereby absolutely and unconditionally
guarantees to Agent and Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, the
full and prompt payment (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or
otherwise) and performance of, all Obligations owed or hereafter owing to Agent
and Lenders by each other Borrower. Each Borrower agrees that its guaranty
obligation hereunder is a continuing guaranty of payment and performance and not
of collection, that its obligations under this Section 12 shall not be
discharged until payment and performance, in full, of the Obligations has
occurred, and that its obligations under this Section 12 shall be absolute and
unconditional, irrespective of, and unaffected by,

         (a)      the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability or any
future amendment of, or change in, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or
any other agreement, document or instrument to which any Borrower is or may
become a party;

         (b)      the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including
this Section 12) or any other Loan Document or the waiver or consent by Agent
and Lenders with respect to any of the provisions thereof;

         (c)      the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect
its Lien against, any security for the Obligations or any action, or the absence
of any action, by Agent and Lenders in respect thereof (including the release of
any such security);

         (d)      the insolvency of any Credit Party; or

         (e)      any other action or circumstances that might otherwise
constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor.

Each Borrower shall be regarded, and shall be in the same position, as principal
debtor with respect to the Obligations guaranteed hereunder.

         12.2     Waivers by Borrowers. Each Borrower expressly waives all
rights it may have now or in the future under any statute, or at common law, or
at law or in equity, or otherwise, to compel Agent or Lenders to marshall assets
or to proceed in respect of the

                                       60
<PAGE>

Obligations guaranteed hereunder against any other Credit Party, any other party
or against any security for the payment and performance of the Obligations
before proceeding against, or as a condition to proceeding against, such
Borrower. It is agreed among each Borrower, Agent and Lenders that the foregoing
waivers are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents and that, but for the provisions of this Section 12 and
such waivers, Agent and Lenders would decline to enter into this Agreement.

         12.3     Benefit of Guaranty. Each Borrower agrees that the provisions
of this Section 12 are for the benefit of Agent and Lenders and their respective
successors, transferees, endorsees and assigns, and nothing herein contained
shall impair, as between any other Borrower and Agent or Lenders, the
obligations of such other Borrower under the Loan Documents.

         12.4     Subordination of Subrogation, Etc. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, and except as set
forth in Section 12.7, each Borrower hereby expressly and irrevocably
subordinates to payment of the Obligations any and all rights at law or in
equity to subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification
or set off and any and all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or
accommodation co-obligor until the Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full in
cash. Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that this subordination is intended
to benefit Agent and Lenders and shall not limit or otherwise affect such
Borrower's liability hereunder or the enforceability of this Section 12, and
that Agent, Lenders and their respective successors and assigns are intended
third party beneficiaries of the waivers and agreements set forth in this
Section 12.4.

         12.5     Election of Remedies. If Agent or any Lender may, under
applicable law, proceed to realize its benefits under any of the Loan Documents
giving Agent or such Lender a Lien upon any Collateral, whether owned by any
Borrower or by any other Person, either by judicial foreclosure or by
non-judicial sale or enforcement, Agent or any Lender may, at its sole option,
determine which of its remedies or rights it may pursue without affecting any of
its rights and remedies under this Section 12. If, in the exercise of any of its
rights and remedies, Agent or any Lender shall forfeit any of its rights or
remedies, including its right to enter a deficiency judgment against any
Borrower or any other Person, whether because of any applicable laws pertaining
to "election of remedies" or the like, each Borrower hereby consents to such
action by Agent or such Lender and waives any claim based upon such action, even
if such action by Agent or such Lender shall result in a full or partial loss of
any rights of subrogation that each Borrower might otherwise have had but for
such action by Agent or such Lender. Any election of remedies that results in
the denial or impairment of the right of Agent or any Lender to seek a
deficiency judgment against any Borrower shall not impair any other Borrower's
obligation to pay the full amount of the Obligations. In the event Agent or any
Lender shall bid at any foreclosure or trustee's sale or at any private sale
permitted by law or the Loan Documents, Agent or such Lender may bid all or less
than the amount of the Obligations and the amount of such bid need not be paid
by Agent or such Lender but shall be credited against the Obligations. The
amount of the successful bid at any such sale, whether Agent, Lender or any
other party is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be the
fair market value of the Collateral and the difference between such bid amount
and the remaining balance of the Obligations shall be conclusively deemed to be
the amount of the Obligations guaranteed under this Section 12, notwithstanding
that any present or future law or court decision or ruling may have the effect
of

                                       61
<PAGE>

reducing the amount of any deficiency claim to which Agent or any Lender might
otherwise be entitled but for such bidding at any such sale.

         12.6     Limitation. Notwithstanding any provision herein contained to
the contrary, each Borrower's liability under this Section 12 (which liability
is in any event in addition to amounts for which such Borrower is primarily
liable under Section 1) shall be limited to an amount not to exceed as of any
date of determination the greater of:

         (a)      the net amount of all Loans advanced to any other Borrower
under this Agreement and then re-loaned or otherwise transferred to, or for the
benefit of, such Borrower; and

         (b)      the amount that could be claimed by Agent and Lenders from
such Borrower under this Section 12 without rendering such claim voidable or
avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any
applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance
Act or similar statute or common law after taking into account, among other
things, such Borrower's right of contribution and indemnification from each
other Borrower under Section 12.7.

         12.7     Contribution with Respect to Guaranty Obligations.

         (a)      To the extent that any Borrower shall make a payment under
this Section 12 of all or any of the Obligations (other than Loans made to that
Borrower for which it is primarily liable) (a "Guarantor Payment") that, taking
into account all other Guarantor Payments then previously or concurrently made
by any other Borrower, exceeds the amount that such Borrower would otherwise
have paid if each Borrower had paid the aggregate Obligations satisfied by such
Guarantor Payment in the same proportion that such Borrower's "Allocable Amount"
(as defined below) (as determined immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment)
bore to the aggregate Allocable Amounts of each of the Borrowers as determined
immediately prior to the making of such Guarantor Payment, then, following
indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Obligations and termination of the
Commitments, such Borrower shall be entitled to receive contribution and
indemnification payments from, and be reimbursed by, each other Borrower for the
amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in
effect immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment.

         (b)      As of any date of determination, the "Allocable Amount" of any
Borrower shall be equal to the maximum amount of the claim that could then be
recovered from such Borrower under this Section 12 without rendering such claim
voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or
under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent
Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law.

         (c)      This Section 12.7 is intended only to define the relative
rights of Borrowers and nothing set forth in this Section 12.7 is intended to or
shall impair the obligations of Borrowers, jointly and severally, to pay any
amounts as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement, including Section 12.1. Nothing contained in this
Section 12.7 shall limit the liability of any Borrower to pay the Loans made

                                       62
<PAGE>

directly or indirectly to that Borrower and accrued interest, Fees and expenses
with respect thereto for which such Borrower shall be primarily liable.

         (d)      The parties hereto acknowledge that the rights of contribution
and indemnification hereunder shall constitute assets of the Borrower to which
such contribution and indemnification is owing.

         (e)      The rights of the indemnifying Borrowers against other Credit
Parties under this Section 12.7 shall be exercisable upon the full and
indefeasible payment of the Obligations and the termination of the Commitments.

         12.8     Liability Cumulative. The liability of Borrowers under this
Section 12 is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of
each Borrower to Agent and Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents to which such Borrower is a party or in respect of any Obligations or
obligation of the other Borrower, without any limitation as to amount, unless
the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability
specifically provides to the contrary.

                                       TO
                                CREDIT AGREEMENT

                                LETTERS OF CREDIT

                  (a)      Issuance. Subject to the terms and conditions of the
Agreement, Agent and Revolving Lenders agree to incur, from time to time prior
to the Commitment Termination Date, upon the request of Borrower Representative
on behalf of the applicable Borrower and for such Borrower's account, Letter of
Credit Obligations by causing Letters of Credit to be issued by GE Capital or a
Subsidiary thereof or a bank or other legally authorized Person selected by or
acceptable to Agent in its sole discretion (each, an "L/C Issuer") for such
Borrower's account and guaranteed by Agent; provided, that if the L/C Issuer is
a Revolving Lender, then such Letters of Credit shall not be guaranteed by Agent
but rather each Revolving Lender shall, subject to the terms and conditions
hereinafter set forth, purchase (or be deemed to have purchased) risk
participations in all such Letters of Credit issued with the written consent of
Agent, as more fully described in paragraph (b)(ii) below. The aggregate amount

Maximum Amount less the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Revolving

determined by the Agent, in its sole discretion, and neither Agent nor Revolving
Lenders shall be under any obligation to incur Letter of Credit Obligations in
respect of, or purchase risk participations in, any Letter of Credit having an
expiry date that is later than the Commitment Termination Date.

                  (b)      (i)      Advances Automatic; Participations. In the
event that Agent or any Revolving Lender shall make any payment on or pursuant
to any Letter of Credit Obligation, such payment shall then be deemed
automatically to constitute a Revolving Credit Advance to the applicable
Borrower under Section 1.1(a) of the Agreement regardless of whether a Default
or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and notwithstanding any
Borrower's failure to satisfy the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2,
and each Revolving Lender shall be obligated to pay its Pro Rata Share thereof
in accordance with the Agreement. The failure of any Revolving Lender to make
available to Agent for Agent's own account its Pro Rata Share of any such
Revolving Credit Advance or payment by Agent under or in respect of a Letter of
Credit shall not relieve any other Revolving Lender of its obligation hereunder
to make available to Agent its Pro Rata Share thereof, but no Revolving Lender
shall be responsible for the failure of any other Revolving Lender to make
available such other Revolving Lender's Pro Rata Share of any such payment.

                           (ii)     If it shall be illegal or unlawful for any
Borrower to incur Revolving Credit Advances as contemplated by paragraph (b)(i)
above because of an Event of Default described in Sections 8.1(h) or (i) or
otherwise or if it shall be illegal or unlawful for any Revolving Lender to be
deemed to have assumed a ratable share of the reimbursement obligations owed to
an L/C Issuer, or if the L/C Issuer is a Revolving Lender, then (A) immediately
and without further action whatsoever, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to

                                      B-1
<PAGE>

have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from Agent (or such L/C Issuer,
as the case may be) an undivided interest and participation equal to such
Revolving Lender's Pro Rata Share (based on the Revolving Loan Commitments) of
the Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of all Letters of Credit then
outstanding and (B) thereafter, immediately upon issuance of any Letter of
Credit, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and
unconditionally purchased from Agent (or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be) an
undivided interest and participation in such Revolving Lender's Pro Rata Share
(based on the Revolving Loan Commitments) of the Letter of Credit Obligations
with respect to such Letter of Credit on the date of such issuance. Each
Revolving Lender shall fund its participation in all payments or disbursements
made under the Letters of Credit in the same manner as provided in the Agreement
with respect to Revolving Credit Advances.

                  (c)      Cash Collateral.

                           (i)      If Borrowers are required to provide cash
collateral for any Letter of Credit Obligations pursuant to the Agreement prior
to the Commitment Termination Date, each Borrower will pay to Agent for the
ratable benefit of itself and Revolving Lenders cash or cash equivalents
acceptable to Agent ("Cash Equivalents") in an amount equal to 105% of the
maximum amount then available to be drawn under each applicable Letter of Credit
outstanding for the benefit of such Borrower. Such funds or Cash Equivalents
shall be held by Agent in a cash collateral account (the "Cash Collateral
Account") maintained at a bank or financial institution acceptable to Agent. The
Cash Collateral Account shall be in the name of the applicable Borrower and
shall be pledged to, and subject to the control of, Agent, for the benefit of
Agent and Lenders, in a manner satisfactory to Agent. Each Borrower hereby
pledges and grants to Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders, a security
interest in all such funds and Cash Equivalents held in the Cash Collateral
Account from time to time and all proceeds thereof, as security for the payment
of all amounts due in respect of the Letter of Credit Obligations and other
Obligations, whether or not then due. The Agreement, including this Annex B,
shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law.

                           (ii)     If any Letter of Credit Obligations, whether
or not then due and payable, shall for any reason be outstanding on the
Commitment Termination Date, Borrowers shall either (A) provide cash collateral
therefor in the manner described above, or (B) cause all such Letters of Credit
and guaranties thereof, if any, to be canceled and returned, or (C) deliver a
stand-by letter (or letters) of credit in guaranty of such Letter of Credit
Obligations, which stand-by letter (or letters) of credit shall be of like tenor
and duration (plus 30 additional days) as, and in an amount equal to 105% of,
the aggregate maximum amount then available to be drawn under, the Letters of
Credit to which such outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations relate and shall
be issued by a Person, and shall be subject to such terms and conditions, as are
be satisfactory to Agent in its sole discretion.

                           (iii)    From time to time after funds are deposited
in the Cash Collateral Account by any Borrower, whether before or after the
Commitment Termination Date, Agent may apply such funds or Cash Equivalents then
held in the Cash Collateral Account to the payment of any amounts, and in such
order as Agent may elect, as shall be or shall become due and payable by such
Borrower to Agent and Lenders with respect to such Letter of Credit

                                      B-2
<PAGE>

Obligations of such Borrower and, upon the satisfaction in full of all Letter of
Credit Obligations of such Borrower, to any other Obligations of any Borrower
then due and payable.

                           (iv)     No Borrower nor any Person claiming on
behalf of or through any Borrower shall have any right to withdraw any of the
funds or Cash Equivalents held in the Cash Collateral Account, except that upon
the termination of all Letter of Credit Obligations and the payment of all
amounts payable by Borrowers to Agent and Lenders in respect thereof, any funds
remaining in the Cash Collateral Account shall be applied to other Obligations
then due and owing and upon payment in full of such Obligations, any remaining
amount shall be paid to Borrowers or as otherwise required by law. Any interest
earned on deposits in the Cash Collateral Account not applied to the Obligations
upon termination of all Letter of Credit Obligations shall be for the account of
Borrowers.

                  (d)      Fees and Expenses. Borrowers agree to pay to Agent
for the benefit of Revolving Lenders, as compensation to such Lenders for Letter
of Credit Obligations incurred hereunder, (i) all costs and expenses incurred by
Agent or any Lender on account of such Letter of Credit Obligations, and (ii)
for each month during which any Letter of Credit Obligation shall remain
outstanding, a fee (the "Letter of Credit Fee") in an amount equal to the
Applicable L/C Margin from time to time in effect multiplied by the maximum
amount available from time to time to be drawn under the applicable Letter of
Credit. Such fee shall be paid to Agent for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders
in arrears, on the first Business Day of each month and on the Commitment
Termination Date. In addition, Borrowers shall pay to any L/C Issuer, on demand,
such customary fees (including all per annum fees), charges and expenses of such
L/C Issuer in respect of the issuance, negotiation, acceptance, amendment,
transfer and payment of such Letter of Credit or otherwise payable pursuant to
the application and related documentation under which such Letter of Credit is

prior written notice requesting the incurrence of any Letter of Credit
Obligation. The notice shall be accompanied by the form of the Letter of Credit

                  document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be
                  forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or
                  any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any
                  respect;

                           (iv)     payment by Agent (except as otherwise
                  expressly provided in paragraph (g)(ii)(C) below) or any L/C

                  presentation of a demand, draft or certificate or other
                  document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of

                           (i)      In addition to amounts payable as elsewhere

indemnify, and save harmless Agent and each Lender from and against any and all
claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses
(including reasonable attorneys' fees and allocated costs of internal counsel)
that Agent or any Lender may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or
indirect, of (A) the issuance of any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof, or
(B) the failure of Agent or any Lender seeking indemnification or of any L/C
Issuer to honor a demand for payment under any Letter of Credit or guaranty
thereof as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any
present or future de jure or de facto government or Governmental Authority, in
each case other than to the extent solely as a result of the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of Agent or such Lender (as finally determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction).

                           (ii)     As between Agent and any Lender and
Borrowers, Borrowers assume all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of
any Letter of Credit by, beneficiaries of any Letter of Credit. In furtherance
and not in limitation of the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
neither Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible for: (A) the form, validity,
sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document issued by any
party in connection with the application for and issuance of any Letter of
Credit, even if it should in fact

                                      B-4
<PAGE>

prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent
or forged; (B) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or
assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit or the rights
or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, that may prove
to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (C) failure of the beneficiary of
any Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in order to demand
payment under such Letter of Credit; provided, that in the case of any payment
by Agent under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof, Agent shall be liable
to the extent such payment was made solely as a result of its gross negligence
or willful misconduct (as finally determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction) in determining that the demand for payment under such Letter of
Credit or guaranty thereof complies on its face with any applicable requirements
for a demand for payment under such Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof; (D)
errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any
messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they may
be in cipher; (E) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (F) any loss or
delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make
a payment under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof or of the proceeds
thereof; (G) the credit of the proceeds of any drawing under any Letter of
Credit or guaranty thereof; and (H) any consequences arising from causes beyond
the control of Agent or any Lender. None of the above shall affect, impair, or
prevent the vesting of any of Agent's or any Lender's rights or powers hereunder
or under the Agreement.

                           (iii)    Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to
limit or to expand any waivers, covenants or indemnities made by Borrowers in
favor of any L/C Issuer in any letter of credit application, reimbursement
agreement or similar document, instrument or agreement between or among
Borrowers and such L/C Issuer including a Master Standby Agreement entered into
with Agent.

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT

                             CASH MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

                  Each Borrower shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to,
establish and maintain the Cash Management Systems described below:

                  (a)      On or before the Closing Date and until the
Termination Date, each Borrower shall (i) establish deposit accounts ("Deposit
Accounts") at one or more of the banks set forth in Disclosure Schedule (3.19),
and (ii) deposit and cause its Subsidiaries to deposit or cause to be deposited
promptly, and in any event no later than the first Business Day after the date
of receipt thereof, all cash, checks, drafts or other similar items of payment
relating to or constituting payments made in respect of any and all Collateral
into one or more Deposit Accounts in such Borrower's name or any such
Subsidiary's name and at a bank identified in Disclosure Schedule (3.19) (each,
a "Relationship Bank"). On or before the Closing Date, the Borrowers shall have
established a concentration account in the name of Carmike (each a "Blocked
Account" and collectively, the "Blocked Accounts") at the bank or banks that
shall be designated as the Blocked Account bank for the Borrowers in Disclosure
Schedule (3.19) (each a "Blocked Account Bank" and collectively, the "Blocked
Account Banks"), which bank(s) shall be reasonably satisfactory to Agent.
Borrowers shall cause all cash, checks, drafts or other similar items of payment
relating to or constituting payments made in respect of any and all Collateral
in the Deposit Accounts to be forwarded by the Relationship Bank, not less
frequently than every third Business Day and in any event, not less frequently
than twice weekly, to a Blocked Account.

                  (b)      Each Borrower may maintain, in its name, an account
(each a "Disbursement Account" and collectively, the "Disbursement Accounts") at
a bank reasonably acceptable to Agent into which Agent shall, from time to time,
deposit proceeds of Revolving Credit Advances made to such Borrower pursuant to
Section 1.1 for use by such Borrower solely in accordance with the provisions of
Section 1.4.

                  (c)      On or before the Closing Date (or such later date as
Agent shall consent to in writing), each Blocked Account Bank, and each bank
where a Disbursement Account is maintained, shall have entered into tri-party
blocked account agreements with Agent, for the benefit of itself and Lenders,
and the applicable Borrower and Subsidiaries thereof, as applicable, in form and
substance reasonably acceptable to Agent, which shall become operative on or
prior to the Closing Date. Each such blocked account agreement shall provide,
among other things, that (i) all items of payment deposited in such account and
proceeds thereof deposited in the applicable Blocked Account are held by such
bank as agent or bailee-in-possession for Agent, on behalf of itself and
Lenders, (ii) the bank executing such agreement has no rights of setoff or
recoupment or any other claim against such account, as the case may be, other
than for payment of its service fees and other charges directly related to the
administration of such account and for

                                      C-1
<PAGE>

returned checks or other items of payment, and (iii) from and after the Closing
Date (A) with respect to banks at which a Blocked Account is maintained, such
bank agrees, from and after the receipt of a notice (an "Activation Notice")
from Agent (which Activation Notice may be given by Agent at any time at which
(1) a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (2) Agent
reasonably believes based upon information available to it that a Default or an
Event of Default is likely to occur; (3) Agent reasonably believes that an event
or circumstance that is likely to have a Material Adverse Effect has occurred,
or (4) Agent reasonably has grounds to question the integrity of any Borrower's
Cash Management Systems or any Borrower's compliance with the provisions of this
Annex C or any other provisions of the Loan Documents to the extent related to
such Cash Management Systems (any of the foregoing being referred to herein as
an "Activation Event")), to forward daily all amounts in each Blocked Account
into the Collection Account. From and after the date Agent has delivered an
Activation Notice to any bank with respect to any Blocked Account(s), no
Borrower shall, or shall cause or permit any Subsidiary thereof to, accumulate
or maintain cash in Disbursement Accounts or payroll accounts as of any date of
determination in excess of checks outstanding against such accounts as of that
date and amounts necessary to meet minimum balance requirements.

                  (d)      So long as no Default or Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, Borrowers may amend Disclosure Schedule (3.19) to
add or replace a Relationship Bank or Blocked Account or to replace any
Disbursement Account; provided, that (i) Agent shall have consented in writing
in advance to the opening of such account with the relevant bank and (ii) prior
to the time of the opening of such account, the applicable Borrower or its
Subsidiaries, as applicable, and such bank shall have executed and delivered to
Agent a tri-party blocked account agreement, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to Agent. Borrowers shall close any of their accounts (and
establish replacement accounts in accordance with the foregoing sentence)
promptly and in any event within 30 days following notice from Agent that the
creditworthiness of any bank holding an account is no longer acceptable in
Agent's reasonable judgment, or as promptly as practicable and in any event
within 60 days following notice from Agent that the operating performance, funds
transfer or availability procedures or performance with respect to accounts of
the bank holding such accounts or Agent's liability under any tri-party blocked
account agreement with such bank is no longer acceptable in Agent's reasonable
judgment.

                  (e)      The Blocked Accounts and the Disbursement Accounts
shall be cash collateral accounts, with all cash, checks and other similar items
of payment in such accounts securing payment of the Loans and all other
Obligations, and in which each Borrower and each Subsidiary thereof shall have
granted a Lien to Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders, pursuant to the
Security Agreement.

                  (f)      All amounts deposited in the Collection Account shall
be deemed received by Agent in accordance with Section 1.10 and shall be applied
(and allocated) by Agent in accordance with Section 1.11. In no event shall any
amount be so applied unless and until such amount shall have been credited in
immediately available funds to the Collection Account.

                  (g)      Each Borrower shall and shall cause its Affiliates,
officers, employees, agents, directors or other Persons acting for or in concert
with such Borrower (each a "Related Person") to (i) hold in trust for Agent, for
the benefit of itself and Lenders, all checks, cash and

                                      C-2
<PAGE>

other items of payment received by such Borrower or any such Related Person, and
(ii) within 1 Business Day after receipt by such Borrower or any such Related
Person of any checks, cash or other items of payment, deposit the same into a
Blocked Account of such Borrower. Each Borrower and each Related Person thereof
acknowledges and agrees that all cash, checks or other items of payment
constituting proceeds of Collateral are part of the Collateral. All proceeds of
the sale or other disposition of any Collateral, shall be deposited directly
into the applicable Blocked Accounts.

                  Borrowers shall not breach or fail to comply with any of the
following financial covenants, each of which shall be calculated in accordance
with GAAP consistently applied:

                  (a)      Maximum Capital Expenditures. Borrowers and their

         Period                                          Maximum Capital Expenditures per Period
         ------                                          ---------------------------------------
         <S>                                             <C>

provided, however, that the amount of permitted Capital Expenditures referenced

of (i) $5,000,000, and (ii) the actual amount, if any, of any Capital
Expenditures committed to during such prior period (the "Carry Over Amount"),
and for purposes of measuring compliance herewith, the Carry Over Amount shall
be deemed to be the last amount spent on Capital Expenditures in that succeeding
year.

                  (b)      Maximum Funded Debt to EBITDA. Borrowers and their
Subsidiaries shall have on a consolidated basis at the end of each Fiscal

<PAGE>

                  (d)      Minimum Interest Coverage Ratio. Borrowers and their

ended of not less than the following:

         1.65:1.00 for the Fiscal Quarters ending March 31, 2004 through
         December 31, 2004;

         1.75:1.00 for the Fiscal Quarters ending March 31, 2005 through

         1.85:1.00 for each Fiscal Quarter ending thereafter.

                  Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, any accounting
term used in the Agreement shall have the meaning customarily given such term in
accordance with GAAP, and all financial computations hereunder shall be computed
in accordance with GAAP consistently applied. That certain items or computations
are explicitly modified by the phrase "in accordance with GAAP" shall in no way
be construed to limit the foregoing. If any "Accounting Changes" (as defined
below) occur and such changes result in a change in the calculation of the
financial covenants, standards or terms used in the Agreement or any other Loan
Document, then Borrowers, Agent and Lenders agree to enter into negotiations in
order to amend such provisions of the Agreement so as to equitably reflect such
Accounting Changes with the desired result that the criteria for evaluating
Borrowers' and their Subsidiaries' financial condition shall be the same after
such Accounting Changes as if such Accounting Changes had not been made;
provided, however, that the agreement of Requisite Lenders to any required
amendments of such provisions shall be sufficient to bind all Lenders.
"Accounting Changes" means (i) changes in accounting principles required by the
promulgation of any rule, regulation, pronouncement or opinion by the Financial
Accounting Standards Board of the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants (or successor thereto or any agency with similar functions), (ii)
changes in accounting principles concurred in by any Borrower's certified public
accountants; (iii) purchase accounting adjustments under A.P.B. 16 or 17 and
EITF 88-16, and the application of the accounting principles set forth in FASB
109, including the establishment of reserves pursuant thereto and any subsequent
reversal (in whole or in part) of such reserves; and (iv) the reversal of any
reserves established as a result of purchase accounting adjustments. All such
purchase accounting adjustments resulting from expenditures made subsequent to
the Closing Date (including capitalization of costs and expenses or payment of
pre-Closing Date liabilities) shall be treated as expenses in the period the
expenditures are made and deducted as part of the calculation of EBITDA in such
period regardless of when such expenditures were deducted from net income. If
Agent, Borrowers and Requisite Lenders agree upon the required amendments, then
after appropriate amendments have been executed and the underlying Accounting
Change with respect thereto has been implemented, any reference to GAAP
contained in the Agreement or in any other Loan Document shall, only to the
extent of such Accounting Change, refer to GAAP, consistently applied after
giving effect to the implementation of such Accounting Change. If Agent,
Borrowers and Requisite Lenders cannot agree upon the required amendments within
30 days following the date of implementation of any Accounting Change, then all
Financial Statements delivered and all calculations of financial covenants and
other standards and terms in accordance with the Agreement and the other Loan
Documents shall be prepared, delivered and made without regard to the underlying
Accounting Change. For purposes

                                      F-2
<PAGE>

of Section 8.1, a breach of a Financial Covenant contained in this Annex G shall
be deemed to have occurred as of the last day of any specified measurement
period, and on the last day of any specified measurement period, Agent may in
its reasonable discretion determine a breach of a Financial Covenant has
occurred as of such date, regardless of when the Financial Statements reflecting
such breach are delivered to Agent.
