                                   ARTICLE II

                       AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF THE PURCHASES

                  Section 2.1 Agreement to Purchase. (a) Upon the terms and
subject to the conditions hereof, the Purchaser hereby agrees to buy, and the
Seller hereby agrees to sell, on each Business Day from the date hereof until
the occurrence of the Termination Date, and the Seller does hereby sell, assign,
transfer and convey to the Purchaser, all of the Seller's right, title and
interest in and to (i) each Receivable now owned or hereafter arising at any
time through the Termination Date, (ii) all Related Security with respect to
such Receivable (it being understood that nothing contained in this Agreement
shall constitute a delegation of the Seller's duties under the Contracts related
to the Receivables), (iii) all Records, (iv) all of the Seller's right, title
and interest in each post office box and related post office box address and
Lock-Box Account to which Collections are sent, all amounts on deposit therein,
all certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time evidencing such
Lock-Box Accounts and amounts on deposit therein, and all related agreements
between the Seller and the Lock-Box Banks, (v) all Collections with respect to
the foregoing, and (vi) all proceeds of the foregoing. The items listed in
clauses (ii), (iii), (iv) (v) and (vi) of the proceeding sentence in relation to
any Receivables are herein collectively called the "Related Assets" or with
respect to any such Receivable, the "Related Asset." On each day when the
Receivables are purchased by the Purchaser from the Seller the Purchaser shall
acquire, upon payment of the Purchase Price therefor in accordance with Section
2.2 below, all of the Seller's right, title and interest in and to all
Receivables which were not previously purchased by the Purchaser hereunder,
together with all Related Security relating thereto and all Collections thereof.
Prior to making any Purchase hereunder, the Purchaser may request of the Seller,
and the Seller shall deliver, such approvals, opinions, information, reports or
documents as the Purchaser may reasonably request.

                  (b)      It is the intention of the parties hereto that each
Purchase of Receivables made hereunder shall constitute a "sale of accounts", as
such term is used in Article 9 of the UCC, which sales are absolute and
irrevocable and provide the Purchaser with the full benefits of ownership of the
Receivables. Except for the Purchase Price Credits owed pursuant to Section. 2.3
hereof, each sale of Receivables hereunder is made without recourse to the
Seller; provided, however, that (i) the Seller shall be liable to the Purchaser
for all representations, warranties and covenants made by the Seller pursuant to
the terms of this Agreement, and (ii) such sale does not constitute and is not
intended to result in an assumption by the Purchaser or any assignee thereof of
any obligation of the Seller or any other person arising in connection with the
Receivables, the Related Security, the related Contracts and the Lock-Box
Accounts, or any other obligations of the Seller. In view of the intention of
the parties hereto that the purchases of Receivables made hereunder shall
constitute sales of such Receivables rather than a loan secured by such
Receivables, the Seller agrees on or prior to the date hereof to mark the master
data processing records relating to the Receivables with a legend, acceptable to
the Purchaser and the Agent, evidencing that the Purchaser has purchased such
Receivables as provided in this Agreement and to note in its financial
statements that the Receivables have been sold to the Purchaser. Upon the

                                       9

<PAGE>

request of the Purchaser or the Agent, the Seller will execute and file such
financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto or assignments
thereof, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or
appropriate or as the Purchaser or the Agent may reasonably request to evidence
the sale of Receivables to the Purchaser hereunder. In addition, the Seller
will, upon request, make available to the Purchaser or to the Servicer the
original copy of each Contract under which a Receivable has arisen.

                  Section 2.2 Payment for the Purchases. (a) The "Purchase
Price" with respect to any purchase on any date shall be an amount equal to (i)
the aggregate Outstanding Balance of the subject Receivables as of such date,
minus (ii) an amount equal to 1% of the aggregate Outstanding Balance of the
subject Receivables as of such date or, if less, an amount agreed upon by the
Seller and the Purchaser, which amount shall allow the Purchaser a reasonable
return with respect to such purchase, minus (iii) any Purchase Price Credits to
be credited against the purchase price. The Purchase Price for each purchase
shall be payable in full by the Purchaser to the Seller or its designee on the
date of such purchase (except that the Purchaser may, with respect to any such
purchase, offset against such Purchase Price any amounts owed by the Seller to
the Purchaser hereunder and which have become due but remain unpaid) and shall
be paid to the Seller in the manner provided in the following paragraph of this
Section.

                  (b)      With respect to any Purchase hereunder, the Purchaser
shall pay the Purchase Price by making a cash payment to the Seller in
immediately available funds to the extent that the Purchaser has cash available
to make such payment (including cash which may be available to the Purchaser
under the Receivables Purchase Agreement). To the extent that cash is not
available to pay the Purchase Price, the Purchaser may pay all or a part of the
applicable Purchase Price by borrowing from the Seller a subordinated revolving
loan (each a "Revolving Loan"), and the Seller, subject to the remaining
provisions of this paragraph, irrevocably agrees to advance such Revolving Loan
in the amount so specified by the Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Seller shall not make any Revolving Loan if, as a result of making such loan,
the Purchaser's net worth would be equal to an amount that is less than three
percent (3.00%) of the aggregate outstanding balance of all Receivables at such
time. The Revolving Loans shall be evidenced by, and shall be payable in
accordance with the terms and provisions of, a subordinated promissory note in
the form of Annex B hereto (the "Revolving Note") and shall be payable solely
from funds which the Purchaser is not required under the Receivables Purchase
Agreement to set aside for the benefit of, or otherwise pay over to, the Agent,
the Liquidity Banks, the Issuer, the "Affected Persons" (as defined therein) and
the "Indemnified Parties" (as defined therein).

                  (c)      In the case of any Purchase, if the Purchaser is
unable to pay in full the applicable Purchase Price with a payment in cash
and/or a borrowing of a Revolving Loan, then the Seller shall be deemed to have
contributed to the capital of the Purchaser Receivables having an aggregate
Outstanding Balance equal to such unpaid portion of the total Purchase Price,
provided, however, that no such deemed capital contribution shall be made from
and after the date on which the Seller notifies the Purchaser in writing that it
has designated a date as the Termination Date.

                  Section 2.3 Purchase Price Credit Adjustments. If on any day
(i) the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable is reduced or adjusted as a result
of any Dilution Factors,

                                       10

<PAGE>

or (ii) any of the representations or warranties in paragraphs (h) or (o) of
Section 4.1 is not true with respect to any Receivable, then, in such event, the
Purchaser shall be entitled to a credit (a "Purchase Price Credit") against the
Purchase Price otherwise payable hereunder equal to the full amount of such
reduction or adjustment (in the case of clause (i) above) or equal to the
Outstanding Balance of the applicable Receivable (in the case of clause (ii)
above). If such Purchase Price Credit exceeds the Purchase Price in respect of
the Receivables to be sold hereunder on any date, then the Seller shall pay the
remaining amount of such Purchase Price Credit in cash on the next succeeding
Business Day; provided that, if the Termination Date has not occurred, the
Seller shall be allowed to deduct the remaining amount of such Purchase Price
Credit from any indebtedness to it owed under the Revolving Note; provided,
further, that at any time (y) during which Receivables are not sold hereunder or
(z) on or after the Termination Date, the amount of any such Purchase Price
Credit shall be paid by the Seller to the Purchaser by deposit in immediately
available funds into the relevant Lock-Box Account for application by the
Servicer to the same extent as if Collections of the applicable Receivable in
such amount had actually been received on such date.

                  Section 2.4 Payments and Computations, Etc. All amounts to be
paid or deposited by the Purchaser hereunder shall be paid or deposited in
accordance with the terms hereof by no later than noon (Tulsa, Oklahoma time) on
the day when due in immediately available funds to the account of the Seller
designated from time to time by the Seller or as otherwise directed by the
Seller. All amounts to be paid or deposited by the Seller hereunder shall be
paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof by no later than noon
(Tulsa, Oklahoma time) on the day when due in immediately available funds to the
account of the Purchaser designated from time to time by the Seller or as
otherwise directed by the Purchaser. In the event that any payment owed by any
Person hereunder becomes due on a day which is not a Business Day, then such
payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of
time shall be included in the computation of such payment. The Seller shall, to
the extent permitted by law, pay interest on any amount not paid or deposited by
the Seller when due hereunder, at an interest rate equal to 2.0% per annum above
the "Base Rate" (as defined in the Receivables Purchase Agreement), payable on
demand. All computations of interest payable hereunder shall be made on the
basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first
but excluding the last day) elapsed.

                  Section 2.5 Transfer of Records. (a) In connection with the
Purchases of Receivables hereunder, the Seller hereby sells, transfers, assigns
and otherwise conveys to the Purchaser all of the Seller's right and title to
and interest in all Contracts and other documents, books, records and other
information (including, without limitation, computer programs, tapes, disks,
punch cards, data processing software and related property and rights) relating
to the Receivables, any Related Security therefor and the related Obligors
(collectively, the "Records"), without the need for any further documentation in
connection with any purchase hereunder. In connection with such transfer, the
Seller hereby grants to each of the Purchaser and the Servicer an irrevocable,
non-exclusive license to use, without royalty or payment of any kind, all
software used by the Seller to account for the Receivables, to the extent
necessary to administer the Receivables, whether such software is owned by the
Seller or is owned by others and used by the Seller under license agreements
with respect thereto, provided, that should the consent of any licensor of the
Seller to such grant of the license described herein be required, the Seller
hereby agrees upon the request of the Purchaser or any assignee of the Purchaser
to obtain the consent of

                                       11

<PAGE>

such third-party licensor. The license granted hereby shall be irrevocable, and
shall terminate on the Collection Date.

                  (b)      The Seller shall take such action requested by the
Purchaser and/or any of the Purchaser's assignees, from time to time hereafter,
that may be necessary or appropriate to ensure that the Purchaser and its
assigns have an enforceable ownership interest in the Records relating to the
Receivables purchased from the Seller hereunder and an enforceable right
(whether by license or sublicense or otherwise) to use all of the computer
software used to account for the Receivables and/or to recreate such Records.

                  Section 2.6 Characterization. If, notwithstanding the
intention of the parties expressed in Section 2.1(b), the conveyance by the
Seller to the Purchaser of Receivables hereunder shall be characterized as a
secured loan and not a sale, this Agreement shall nonetheless constitute a
security agreement under applicable law. For this purpose, the Seller hereby
grants to the Purchaser a duly perfected security interest in all of the
Seller's right, title and interest in, to and under all (i) Receivables, (ii)
all Related Security with respect to such Receivables, (it being understood that
nothing contained in this Agreement shall constitute a delegation of the
Seller's duties under the Contracts related to the Receivables), (iii) all
Records, (iv) all of the Seller's right, title and interest in each post office
box and related post office box address and Lock-Box Account to which
Collections are sent, all amounts on deposit therein, all certificates and
instruments, if any, from time to time evidencing such Lock-Box Accounts and
amounts on deposit therein, and all related agreements between the Seller and
the Lock-Box Banks, (v) all Collections with respect to the foregoing, (vi) all
payments on or with respect to such Receivables, all other rights relating to
and payments made in respect of the Receivables, and (vii) all proceeds of any
of the foregoing. After any Termination Event, the Purchaser and its assignees
shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies which they may have under
this Agreement, all other rights and remedies provided to a secured creditor
after default under the UCC and other applicable law, which rights and remedies
shall be cumulative. In that regard, the Purchaser is hereby granted a license
or other right to use, without charge, the Seller's copyrights, rights of use of
any name, trade names, trademarks, service marks and advertising matter, or any
property of a similar nature, as it may pertain to Related Security comprising
repossessed or returned inventory the sale or lease of which shall have given
rise to a Receivable and in order to facilitate the disposition by the Purchaser
of such inventory. In connection with the grant of the transfer of ownership or
security interest in the Receivables, by signing this Agreement in the space
provided, the Seller hereby authorizes the filing of all applicable UCC
financing statements in all necessary jurisdictions.

                  Section 2.7 Servicing of Receivables. Pursuant to the
Receivables Purchase Agreement, the Seller has been appointed as the initial
Servicer thereunder, and the Seller has accepted such appointment. As the
Servicer, the Seller shall be responsible for collecting the Receivables,
tracking, holding and remitting the Collections and fulfilling all other duties
expressly assigned to it in the Receivables Purchase Agreement. The Seller shall
exercise reasonable care in the performance of its duties as the Servicer under
the Receivables Purchase Agreement and shall use the same degree of care and
skill which it applies to its own property. The appointment of the Seller as the
Servicer may be revoked as provided in the Receivables Purchase Agreement.

         and copies of all other reports and registration statements that the
         Seller or any subsidiary files with the Securities and Exchange
         Commission or any national securities exchange;

                  (vi)     promptly upon learning thereof, written notice
         describing the institution of any steps by the Seller or any other
         Person to terminate any Plan or any Multiemployer Plan, or the
         appointment of a receiver to administer any Plan or any Multiemployer
         Plan, or the withdrawal by the Company or any Related Person from any
         Multiemployer Plan, or the failure to make a required contribution to
         any Plan if such failure is sufficient to give rise to a lien under
         section 302(f) of ERISA, or the taking of any action with respect to a
         Plan which could result in the requirement that the originator furnish
         a bond or other security to the PBGC or such Plan, or the occurrence of
         any event with respect to any Plan which could reasonably be expected
         to result in the incurrence by the Seller of any material liability,
         fine or penalty, or any material increase in the contingent liability
         of the Seller with respect to any post-retirement Welfare Plan benefit;

                  (vii)    such other information respecting the Receivables or
         the condition or operations, financial or otherwise, of the Seller or
         any of its Affiliates as the Purchaser or the Agent may from time to
         time reasonably request;

                  (viii)   promptly after the Seller obtains knowledge thereof,
         notice of any (a) litigation, investigation or proceeding which may
         exist at any time between the Seller and any Governmental Authority
         which, if not cured or if adversely determined, as the case may be, is
         reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect; or (b) litigation
         or proceeding which is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse
         Effect or (c) litigation or proceeding relating to any Transaction
         Document; and

                  (ix)     promptly after the occurrence thereof, notice of any
         event which is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

                  (n)      Purchasers' Reliance. The Seller acknowledges that
the Issuer, the Liquidity Banks and the Agent (together with the "Purchasers",
as defined in the Receivables Purchase Agreement) are entering into the
transactions contemplated by the Receivables Purchase Agreement in reliance upon
the Purchaser's identity as a separate legal entity from the Seller. Therefore,
from and after the date of execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Seller
shall take all reasonable steps including, without limitation, all steps that
the Issuer, the Liquidity Banks or Agent may from time to time reasonably
request, to maintain the Purchaser's identity as a separate legal entity and to
make it manifest to third parties that the Purchaser is an entity with assets
and liabilities distinct from those of the Seller and any Affiliates thereof and
not just a division of the Seller. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing and in addition to the other covenants set forth herein, the Seller
(i) shall not hold itself out to third parties as liable for the debts of the
Purchaser nor purport to own the Receivables and other assets acquired by the
Purchaser hereunder or otherwise, (ii) shall take all other actions necessary on
its part to ensure that the Purchaser is at all times in compliance with the
covenants set forth in paragraph (l) of Exhibit IV of the Receivables Purchase
Agreement and (iii) shall cause all tax liabilities arising in connection with
the transactions contemplated herein or otherwise to be allocated between the
Seller and the Purchaser on an arm's-length basis.

                  (o)      Perfection Covenants. The perfection covenants set
forth in Exhibit VII to the Receivables Purchase Agreement shall be a part of
this Agreement for all purposes and the Seller hereunder makes such covenants.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                               TERMINATION EVENTS

                  Section 6.1 Termination Events. Each of the following events
shall be a "Termination Event":

                  (a)      The Seller shall fail to make any payment required
under this Agreement.

                  (b)      Any representation or warranty made or deemed made by
the Seller (or any of its respective officers) under or in connection with this
Agreement or any information or

                                       21

<PAGE>

report delivered by the Seller pursuant to this Agreement shall prove to have
been incorrect or untrue in any material respect when made or deemed made or
delivered; or

                  (c)      The Seller shall fail to perform or observe any other
material term, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement on its part to
be performed or observed and any such failure shall remain unremedied for 10
days after receiving notice or becoming aware of such failure; or

                  (d)      This Agreement or any purchase pursuant to this
Agreement shall for any reason (other than pursuant to the terms hereof) (i)
cease to create, or the Purchaser and its assignees shall for any reason cease
to have, a valid and enforceable perfected 100% ownership interest in each
Receivable and the Related Assets and other proceeds with respect thereto, free
and clear of any Adverse Claim or (ii) cease to create with respect to the items
described in Section 2.6, or the interest of the Purchaser and its assignees
with respect to such items shall cease to be, a valid and enforceable first
priority perfected security interest, free and clear of any Adverse Claim; or

                  (e)      Any "Termination Event" shall occur under and as
defined in the Receivables Purchase Agreement and the "Termination Date" shall
have been declared thereunder as a result thereof.

                  Section 6.2 Remedies. If any of the Termination Events set
forth in Section 6.1 hereto shall occur, the Purchaser may, by notice to the
Seller, declare the Termination Date to have occurred (in which case the
Termination Date shall be deemed to have occurred); provided that, automatically
upon the occurrence of any event (without any requirement for the passage of
time or the giving of notice) described in subsection (d) of Section 6.1, the
Termination Date shall occur. Upon any such declaration, occurrence or deemed
occurrence of the Termination Date, the Purchaser shall have, in addition to the
rights and remedies which it may have under this Agreement, all other rights and
remedies provided after default under the UCC and under other applicable law,
which rights and remedies shall be cumulative.

                                  ARTICLE VII

                                INDEMNIFICATION

                  Section 7.1 Indemnities by the Seller. Without limiting any
other rights that the Purchaser or any of its employees, agents, successors,
transferees or assigns (each, an "Indemnified Party") may have hereunder or
under applicable law, the Seller hereby agrees to indemnify each Indemnified
Party from and against any and all claims, damages, expenses, losses and
liabilities (including Attorney Costs) (all of the foregoing being collectively
referred to as "Indemnified Amounts") arising out of or resulting from this
Agreement (whether directly or indirectly) or the use of proceeds of purchases
or the ownership of any Receivable or any related Contract, excluding, however,
(a) Indemnified Amounts to the extent resulting from gross negligence, willful
misconduct or unlawful conduct on the part of such Indemnified Party, (b)
recourse (except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement) for
uncollectible Receivables, or (c) any overall net income taxes or franchise
taxes imposed on such Indemnified Party by the jurisdiction under the laws of
which such Indemnified Party is organized or any

                                       22

<PAGE>

political subdivision thereof. Without limiting or being limited by the
foregoing, and subject to the exclusions set forth in the preceding sentence,
the Seller shall pay on demand to each Indemnified Party any and all amounts
necessary to indemnify such Indemnified Party from and against any and all
Indemnified Amounts relating to or resulting from any of the following:

                  (i)      the failure of (A) any Receivable included by the
         Seller or the Servicer (so long as the Servicer is an Affiliate of the
         Seller) in the calculation of the Net Receivables Balance as an
         Eligible Receivable to be an Eligible Receivable as of the date of such
         calculation (unless such ineligibility occurs as a result of the
         Agent's exercise of its rights to exclude Receivables and/or Obligors
         pursuant to the definition of "Eligible Receivable") or (B) any other
         information provided to the Purchaser or any of its assignees with
         respect to the Receivables or this Agreement to be true and correct;

                  (ii)     the failure of any representation or warranty or
         statement (i) made in writing, (ii) verbally communicated during the
         due diligence process prior to the date of closing by the Seller (or
         any of its officers) under or in connection with this Agreement or any
         Transaction Document to have been true and correct in all respects when
         made;

                  (iii)    the failure by the Seller to comply with any covenant
         set forth in Article V;

                  (iv)     the failure by the Seller to comply with any
         applicable law, rule or regulation with respect to any Receivable or
         the related Contract; or the failure of any Receivable or the related
         Contract to conform to any such applicable law, rule or regulation;

                  (v)      the failure to vest in the Purchaser a valid and
         enforceable (A) perfected 100% ownership interest in the Receivables
         and the Related Assets with respect thereto and (B) first priority
         perfected security interest in the items described in Section 2.6, in
         each case, free and clear of any Adverse Claim;

                  (vi)     the failure to have filed, or any delay in filing,
         financing statements or other similar instruments or documents under
         the UCC of any applicable jurisdiction or other applicable laws with
         respect to any Receivables and the Related Assets in respect thereof,
         whether at the time of any purchase or at any subsequent time;

                  (vii)    any dispute, claim, offset or defense (other than
         discharge in bankruptcy of the Obligor) of the Obligor to the payment
         of any Receivable (including, without limitation, a defense based on
         such Receivable or the related Contract not being a legal, valid and
         binding obligation of such Obligor enforceable against it in accordance
         with its terms), or any other claim resulting from the sale of the
         goods or services related to such Receivable or the furnishing or
         failure to furnish such goods or services or relating to collection
         activities with respect to such Receivable (if such collection
         activities were performed by the Seller or any of its Affiliates acting
         as Servicer or by any agent or independent contractor retained by the
         Seller or any of its Affiliates);

                  (viii)   any failure of the Seller to perform its duties or
         obligations in accordance with the provisions hereof or to perform its
         duties or obligations under the Contracts;

                                       23

<PAGE>

                  (ix)     any products liability or other claim, investigation,
         litigation or proceeding arising out of or in connection with
         merchandise, insurance or services which are the subject of any
         Contract;

                  (x)      the commingling of Collections of Receivables at any
         time with other funds of the Seller;

                  (xi)     any investigation, litigation or proceeding related
         to this Agreement or the use of proceeds of purchases or the ownership
         of any Receivable or Related Assets;

                  (xii)    any distribution of Collections all or a portion of
         which shall thereafter be rescinded or otherwise must be returned for
         any reason;

                  (xiii)   the Seller's failure to pay when due any taxes
         (including sales, excise or personal property taxes) payable in
         connection with the Receivables;

                  (xiv)    any attempt by any Person to void any such transfer
         of Receivables hereunder under statutory provisions or common law or
         equitable action, including, without limitation, any provision of the
         Bankruptcy Code; or

                  (xv)     any information provided by the Seller in any
         Transaction Document furnished to the Purchaser, the Issuer, the
         Liquidity Banks or the Agent in connection with this Agreement which
         shall have been incorrect in any respect or which shall have omitted
         any material fact necessary to make such information not misleading; or

                  (xvi)    any setoff of any Lock-Box Bank of amounts owed by
         the Seller or any Affiliate thereof to such Lock-Box Bank.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

                  Section 8.1 Amendments, Etc. No amendment or waiver of any
provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by the Seller therefrom
shall be effective unless in a writing signed by the Purchaser (and, if the
Receivables Purchase Agreement shall then be in effect, the Agent), and, in the
case of any amendment, by the Seller and then such amendment, waiver or consent
shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose
for which given. No failure on the part of the Purchaser or any of its assignees
to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a
waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
right. It is expressly understood and acknowledged that during the period the
Receivables Purchase Agreement shall be in effect, the prior consent of the
Agent and the Issuer, to the extent the Receivables Purchase Agreement is in
effect, shall be required in accordance with the terms thereof in order for the
Purchaser to grant any material consent, authorization or approval requested of
the Purchaser hereunder, or for the Purchaser to agree to any amendment, waiver
or other modification to the terms or conditions of this Agreement.

hereunder shall, unless otherwise stated herein, be in writing (which shall
include facsimile communication) and sent or delivered, to each party hereto, at
its address set forth under its name on the signature pages hereof or at such
other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the
other parties hereto. Notices and communications by facsimile shall be effective
when received (and shall be followed by hard copy sent by first class mail), and
notices and communications sent by other means shall be effective when received.

                  Section 8.3 Assignability; Subordination. (a) This Agreement
shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Seller, the Purchaser and
their respective successors and permitted assigns (including any trustee in
bankruptcy). The Seller may not assign any of its rights or delegate any of its
obligations hereunder or transfer any interest herein without the prior written
consent of the Purchaser. The Purchaser may assign at any time its rights and
obligations hereunder and interests herein to any other Person without the
consent of the Seller. Without limiting the foregoing, the Seller acknowledges
that the Purchaser, pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement, shall assign
to the Agent, for the benefit of the Liquidity Banks, the Issuer and the
"Purchasers" (as defined in the Receivables Purchase Agreement), all of its
rights, remedies, powers and privileges hereunder and that the Agent may further
assign such rights, remedies, powers and privileges to the extent permitted in
the Receivables Purchase Agreement. The Seller agrees that the Agent, as the
assignee of the Purchaser, shall, subject to the terms of the Receivables
Purchase Agreement, have the right to enforce this Agreement and to exercise
directly all of the Purchaser's rights and remedies under this Agreement
(including, without limitation, the right to give or withhold any consents or
approvals of the Purchaser to be given or withheld hereunder) and the Seller
agrees to cooperate fully with the Agent, the Issuer and the Liquidity Banks in
the exercise of such rights and remedies. The Seller further agrees to give to
the Agent copies of all notices it is required to give to the Purchaser
hereunder. This Agreement shall create and constitute the continuing obligations
of the parties hereto in accordance with its terms, and shall remain in full
force and effect until the later to occur of the Termination Date and the
Collection Date; provided, however, that the rights and remedies with respect to
any breach of any representation and warranty made by the Seller hereunder and
the indemnification and payment provisions hereof shall be continuing and shall
survive any termination of this Agreement.

                  (b)      The Seller agrees that any indebtedness, obligation
or claim, it may from time to time hold or otherwise have against the Purchaser
or any assets or properties of the Purchaser, including, without limitation any
obligation or claim under the Revolving Note or otherwise in respect of the
Revolving Loan, whether arising hereunder or otherwise existing, shall be
subordinate in right of payment to the prior payment in full of any indebtedness
or obligation of the Purchaser owing to the Agent, the Liquidity Banks, the
Issuer, the "Affected Persons" (as defined in the Receivables Purchase
Agreement), the "Indemnified Parties" (as defined in the Receivables Purchase
Agreement) under or in connection with the Receivables Purchase Agreement. The
subordination provision contained herein is for the direct benefit of, and may
be enforced by, the Agent, the Liquidity Banks, the Issuer, the "Affected
Persons" (as defined in the Receivables Purchase Agreement), the "Indemnified
Parties" (as defined in the Receivables Purchase Agreement) and their respective
assignees.

                  (c)      Each assignor may, in connection with any assignment,
but subject to Section 8.6, disclose to the applicable assignee any information
relating to the Seller or the Receivables furnished to such assignor by or on
behalf of the Seller or the Purchaser.

                  Section 8.4 Costs, Expenses and Taxes. (a) In addition to the
rights of indemnification granted under Section 7.1 hereof, the Seller agrees to
pay on demand all costs and expenses in connection with the preparation,
execution, delivery and administration (including periodic auditing of
Receivables) of this Agreement, and the other documents and agreements to be
delivered hereunder, including, without limitation, Attorney Costs for the
Purchaser with respect to advising the Purchaser as to its rights and remedies
under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, and all costs and
expenses, if any (including Attorney Costs), of the Purchaser in connection with
the enforcement of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

                  (b)      In addition, the Seller shall pay on demand any and
all stamp and other taxes and fees payable in connection with the execution,
delivery, filing and recording of this Agreement or the other documents or
agreements to be delivered hereunder, and agrees to save each Indemnified Party
harmless from and against any liabilities with respect to or resulting from any
delay in paying or omission to pay such taxes and fees.

                  Section 8.5 No Proceedings; Limitation on Payments. The Seller
covenants and agrees that it will not institute against, or join any other
Person in instituting against, either the Purchaser or the Issuer any
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding,
or other proceeding under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law, for
one year and one day after the latest maturing commercial paper note issued by
the Issuer is paid in full.

                  Section 8.6 GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION. (a) THIS AGREEMENT
SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK (INCLUDING SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAWS,
BUT OTHERWISE WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF).

                  (b) ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS
AGREEMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR OF THE UNITED
STATES FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF
THIS AGREEMENT, EACH OF THE PURCHASER AND THE SELLER CONSENTS, FOR ITSELF AND IN
RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THOSE COURTS. EACH
OF THE PURCHASER AND THE SELLER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT
PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION, INCLUDING ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE
OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER
HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN RESPECT
OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DOCUMENT RELATED HERETO. THE PURCHASER AND THE SELLER
EACH WAIVE PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY SUMMONS, COMPLAINT OR

OTHER PROCESS, WHICH MAY BE MADE BY ANY OTHER MEANS PERMITTED BY NEW YORK LAW.

                  Section 8.7 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be
an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the
same agreement.

                  Section 8.8 Survival of Termination. The provisions of Section
7.1, 8.4, 8.5, 8.6 and 8.9 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

WHETHER WITH RESPECT TO CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, OR OTHERWISE. THE
PURCHASER AND THE SELLER EACH AGREE THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL
BE TRIED BY A COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, EACH
OF THE PARTIES HERETO FURTHER AGREES THAT ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY
JURY IS WAIVED BY OPERATION OF THIS SECTION AS TO ANY ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR
OTHER PROCEEDING WHICH SEEKS, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, TO CHALLENGE THE VALIDITY OR
ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY PROVISION HEREOF. THIS WAIVER SHALL
APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO
THIS AGREEMENT.

                  Section 8.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents required to be delivered hereunder embody the entire
agreement and understanding between the Purchaser and the Seller, and supersede

                                     [DATE]

[LOCKBOX BANK NAME AND
ADDRESS]

         Re:      Lockbox Agreement (this "Agreement")
                  for Lockbox Number(s) [_________] and [_________]
                  Lockbox Account Number(s) [_________] and [_________]

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         CITGO PETROLEUM CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation ("Originator"),
hereby notifies you that in connection with certain transactions involving the
trade receivables of Originator, Originator hereby transfers exclusive ownership
and control of its lockbox number(s) [_________] and [_________] (the "Lockbox")
and the corresponding lockbox account number(s) [_________] and [_________]
maintained with you (the "Lockbox Account") to CITGO Funding Company, L.L.C.
("SPV") (or its assigns or designees), and SPV hereby notifies you that in
connection with such transactions SPV hereby transfers exclusive dominion and
control of the Lockbox and the Lockbox Account to Societe Generale, in its
capacity as agent for and on behalf of certain other parties (the "Agent").
Originator has agreed to act as initial servicer of such receivables for SPV and
the Agent (Originator, or any successor servicer, the "Servicer"). Originator
shall have no ownership of, or rights in, the Lockbox or Lockbox Account or any
funds therein.

         In connection with the foregoing, SPV and the Agent hereby jointly
instruct you, beginning on the date hereof until you are otherwise notified by
the Agent in writing, (i) to change the name on the Lockbox and the Lockbox
Account to "CITGO Funding Company, L.L.C. and Societe Generale, as Agent for and
on behalf of certain parties"; (ii) to follow your usual operating procedures
for the handling of any checks, except as modified by this Agreement; (iii) to
follow your usual procedures in the event the Lockbox, the Lockbox Account or
any check should be or become the subject of any writ, levy, order or other
similar judicial or regulatory order or process, except as modified by this
Agreement; (iv) to collect the monies, checks, instruments and other items of
payment mailed to the Lockbox; (v) to maintain the Lockbox Account as a "Deposit
Account" (as defined in Section 9-102 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in
effect in the State of New York (the "Applicable UCC")); (vi) to deposit in the
Lockbox Account all such monies, checks, instruments and other items of payment
(unless otherwise instructed by the Agent); and (vii) to transfer all collected
and available funds in the Lockbox Account in accordance with the instructions
of the Servicer; provided, however, that, at all times from and after the date
of your receipt of notice from the Agent of termination of the Servicer's access
to the Lockbox and Lockbox Account, which notice may be in the form

                                   Annex A-2

<PAGE>

attached hereto as Annex A or in any other form that gives you reasonable notice
of such termination (the "Agent's Notice"), such funds shall be transferred by
you directly to the Agent, at its address set forth below its signature hereto
or as the Agent otherwise notifies you, or otherwise in accordance with the
instructions of the Agent. You are hereby further instructed to permit the
Servicer and the Agent to obtain upon request any information relating to the
Lockbox and the Lockbox Account, including, without limitation, any information
regarding the balance or activity of the Lockbox Account.

         Originator and SPV also hereby jointly notify you that notwithstanding
anything herein or elsewhere to the contrary, the Agent, or any party designated
in writing by the Agent, shall be irrevocably entitled to exercise any and all
rights in respect of or in connection with the Lockbox and the Lockbox Account,
including, without limitation, the right to specify when payments are to be made
out of or in connection with the Lockbox and the Lockbox Account. At all times
from and after the date of your receipt of the Agent's Notice, neither
Originator (including, in its capacity as Servicer), SPV nor any of our
respective affiliates shall be given any access to the Lockbox or Lockbox
Account.

         The Agent's Notice may be personally served or sent by facsimile or
U.S. mail, certified return receipt requested, to the address or facsimile
number set forth under your signature to this letter agreement (or to such other
address or facsimile number as to which you shall notify the Agent in writing).
If the Agent's Notice is given by facsimile or electronic mail, it will be
deemed to have been received when the Agent's Notice is sent and receipt is
confirmed by telephone or other electronic means. All other notices will be
deemed to have been received when actually received or, in the case of personal
delivery, delivered.

         The monies, checks, instruments and other items of payment mailed to
the Lockbox and the funds deposited into the Lockbox Account will not be subject
to deduction, set-off, banker's lien, or any other right in favor of any person
other than the Agent (except that you may set off the face amount of any items
(including, without limitation, checks and automated clearinghouse transactions)
returned unpaid because of uncollected or insufficient funds in accordance with
your customary practices). To the extent that funds in the Lockbox Account are
insufficient, Originator shall pay you for such returned items. All service
charges and fees with respect to the Lockbox and Lockbox Account shall continue
to be payable by Originator under the arrangements currently in effect.
Originator hereby authorizes you, without prior notice, from time to time to
debit any other account Originator may have with you for the amount or amounts
due you under the two preceding sentences.

         By executing this Agreement, you (a) irrevocably waive and agree not to
assert, claim or endeavor to exercise, (b) irrevocably bar and estop yourself
from asserting, claiming or exercising and (c) acknowledge that you have not
heretofore received a notice, writ, order or any form of legal process from any
other party asserting, claiming or exercising, any right of set-off, banker's
lien, security interest or other purported form of claim with respect to the
Lockbox or Lockbox Account or any funds from time to time therein (except for
security interests which have been terminated on or prior to the date hereof).
You agree to give the Agent and SPV prompt notice if the Lockbox or the Lockbox
Account becomes subject to any writ, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution
or similar process. Except for your right to payment of your service charges and
fees from Originator and to make deductions for returned items, you shall

                                   Annex A-3

<PAGE>

have no rights in the Lockbox or Lockbox Account or funds therein. To the extent
you may ever have such rights, you hereby expressly subordinate all such rights
to all rights of the Agent.

         In addition, as collateral security for SPV's obligations to the Agent
and certain other persons in connection with the transactions referenced in the
first paragraph of this Agreement, SPV hereby grants to the Agent a present and
continuing security interest in (a) the Lockbox and the Lockbox Account, (b) all
general intangibles and privileges in respect of the Lockbox or the Lockbox
Account, and (c) all cash, checks, money orders and other items of value of SPV
now or hereafter paid, deposited, credited, held (whether for collection,
provisionally or otherwise) or otherwise, in the possession or under the control
of, or in transit to you or any agent, bailee or custodian thereof in respect of
the Lockbox or the Lockbox Account, and all proceeds of the foregoing
(collectively, "Receipts"). You acknowledge and agree that (i) the Agent has
"Control" (as defined in Section 9-104 of the Applicable UCC) of the Lockbox
Account and you are required to comply with the instructions of the Agent
directing disposition of the funds in the Lockbox Account without further
consent by the Originator, Servicer, SPV or any affiliate thereof and (ii) you
shall at all times maintain the Lockbox Account as a "Deposit Account" (as
defined in Section 9-102 of the Applicable UCC). The Agent hereby appoints you
as the Agent's bailee for the Lockbox, Lockbox Account and all Receipts for the
purpose of perfecting the Agent's security interest in such collateral, and you
hereby accept such appointment and agree to be bound by the terms of this
Agreement. SPV hereby agrees to such appointment and further agrees that you, on
behalf of the Agent, shall be entitled to exercise, as directed in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement, any and all rights which the Agent may have in
connection with the transactions referenced in the first paragraph of this
Agreement or under applicable law with respect to the Lockbox, Lockbox Account,
all Receipts and all other collateral described in this paragraph.

         You will not be liable to Originator, SPV or the Agent for any expense,
claim, loss, damage or cost ("Damages") arising out of or relating to your
performance under this Agreement other than those Damages which result directly
from your acts or omissions constituting gross negligence. In no event will you
be liable for any special, indirect, exemplary or consequential Damages,
including but not limited to lost profits.

         Originator shall indemnify you against, and hold you harmless from, any
and all liabilities, claims, costs, expenses and damages of any nature
(including but not limited to allocated costs of staff counsel, other reasonable
attorneys' fees and any fees and expenses incurred in enforcing this Agreement)
in any way arising out of or relating to disputes or legal actions concerning
this Agreement, the Lockbox or the Lockbox Account. Originator agrees to pay to
you, upon receipt of your invoice, all costs, expenses and attorneys' fees
(including allocated costs for in-house legal services) incurred by you in
connection with the preparation and administration (including any amendments)
and enforcement of this Agreement. This paragraph does not apply to any cost or
damage attributable to your negligence or intentional misconduct. Originator's
obligations under this paragraph shall survive termination of this Agreement.

         Notwithstanding any of the other provisions in this Agreement, in the
event of the commencement of a case pursuant to Title 11, United States Code,
filed by or against SPV, or in the event of the commencement of any similar case
under then applicable federal or state law

                                   Annex A-4
<PAGE>

providing for the relief of debtors or the protection of creditors by or against
SPV, you may act as you deem necessary to comply with all applicable provisions
of governing statutes and shall be held harmless from any claim of any of the
parties for so doing, provided that you shall not release any funds other than
in accordance with (i) this Agreement or (ii) an order of a court of competent
jurisdiction.

         You hereby agree not to institute or join any other person or entity in
instituting, any suit pursuant to Title 11, United States Code, or any similar
suit or proceeding under then applicable state or federal law providing for the
relief of debtors or the protection of creditors, against SPV prior to the date
which is one year and one day after payment of all obligations of SPV to the
Agent (and the parties for which it is acting as agent) are paid in full. This
section shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

         You may terminate this Agreement upon 30 days' prior written notice to
SPV and the Agent. The Agent may terminate this Agreement upon 30 days' prior
written notice to SPV and you. Neither SPV nor the Servicer may terminate this
Agreement, except with the written consent of the Agent and upon 30 days' prior
written notice to you and the Agent. Originator may not terminate this
Agreement. Incoming mail addressed to the Lockbox or Lockbox Account (including,
without limitation, any direct funds transfer to the Lockbox Account) received
after any such termination shall be forwarded in accordance with the Agent's
instructions.

         You shall not assign or transfer your rights or obligations hereunder
(other than to the Agent) without the prior written consent (which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld) of the Agent and SPV. Originator (except to the
extent of its limited capacity as Servicer) shall not assign or transfer its
rights and obligations hereunder without your consent and the consent of the
Agent. Neither SPV nor Servicer shall not assign or transfer its rights or
obligations hereunder without the consent of the Agent. The Agent may at any
time assign its rights and obligations hereunder upon notice to the other
parties hereto. Subject to the preceding sentences, this Agreement shall be
binding upon each of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Agent,
each of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

         This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties with
respect to the subject matter hereof, and may not be altered, modified or
amended in any respect, nor except as set forth in the preceding paragraph may
any right, power or privilege of any party hereunder be waived or released or
discharged, except upon execution by you, SPV and the Agent of a written
instrument so providing. The terms and conditions of any agreement between
Originator and/or SPV and you (a "Lockbox Service Agreement") (whether now
existing or executed hereafter) with respect to the lockbox arrangements, to the
extent not inconsistent with this Agreement, are made part of this Agreement
with respect to matters not explicitly covered in this Agreement. In the event
that any provision in this Agreement is in conflict with, or inconsistent with,
any provision of any such Lockbox Service Agreement, this Agreement will
exclusively govern and control. Each party agrees to take all actions reasonably
requested by any other party to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to
preserve and protect the rights of each party hereunder.

                                   Annex A-5

<PAGE>

         Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, notice, demand or other
communication required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing
and may be (a) personally served, (b) sent by courier service, (c) sent by
facsimile or electronic mail or (d) sent by United States mail and shall be
deemed to have been given when (a) delivered in person, (b) delivered by courier
service, (c) upon confirmation by telephone or other electronic means of receipt
of the telex, facsimile or electronic mail or (d) five business days after
deposit in the United States mail (registered or certified, with postage prepaid

shall not be effective until actually received by the Agent. For the purposes
hereof, the addresses of the parties hereto shall be as set forth below each
party's name below, or, as to each party, at such other address as may be
designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties.

         This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder
will be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the
internal laws of the State of New York. The SPV, the Agent and you agree that
New York is your "jurisdiction" for purposes of Section 9-304 of the Applicable
UCC. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by
different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which counterparts,
when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which
counterparts, taken together, shall constitute one and the same agreement.
Delivery of an executed counterpart of the signature pages of this Agreement by
telecopier or other electronic means shall be equally effective as delivery of a
manually executed counterpart.

that are due and payable, together with any and all interest and Discount
accruing on any such amount after the commencement of any Bankruptcy
Proceedings, notwithstanding any provision or rule of law that might restrict
the rights of any Senior Interest Holder, as against the Company or anyone else,
to collect such interest.

                  "Senior Interest Holders" means, collectively, the Issuer, the
Agent, Affected Persons and the Indemnified Parties.

                  "Subordination Provisions" means, collectively, clauses (a)
through (l) of paragraph 9 hereof.

                  "Telerate Screen Rate" means, for any Interest Period, the
rate for thirty day commercial paper denominated in dollars which appears on
Page 1250 of the Dow Jones Telerate Service (or such other page as may replace
that page on that service for the purpose of displaying dollar commercial paper
rates) at approximately 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the first day of such
Interest Period.

         3.       Interest. Subject to the Subordination Provisions set forth
below, the Company promises to pay interest on this Revolving Note as follows:

                  (a)      Prior to the Final Maturity Date, the aggregate
unpaid Purchase Price from time to time outstanding during any Interest Period
shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Telerate Screen Rate for
such Interest Period as determined by the Servicer; and

                  (b)      From (and including) the Final Maturity Date to (but
excluding) the date on which the entire aggregate unpaid Purchase Price payable
to the Originator is fully paid, such aggregate unpaid Purchase Price from time
to time outstanding shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Prime
Rate.

         4.       Interest Payment Dates. Subject to the Subordination
Provisions set forth below, the Company shall pay accrued interest on this
Revolving Note on each Settlement Date, and shall pay accrued interest on the
amount of each principal payment made in cash on a date other than a Settlement
Date at the time of such principal payment.

         5.       Basis of Computation. Interest accrued hereunder that is
computed by reference to the Telerate Screen Rate shall be computed for the
actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a 360-day year, and interest
accrued hereunder that is computed by reference to the rate described in
paragraph 3(b) of this Revolving Note shall be computed for the actual number of
days elapsed on the basis of a 365- or 366-day year.

         6.       Principal Payment Dates. Subject to the Subordination
Provisions set forth below, payments of the principal amount of this Revolving
Note shall be made as follows:

                  (a)      The principal amount of this Revolving Note shall be
reduced by an amount equal to each payment deemed made pursuant to Section 2.3
of the Purchase and Sale Agreement; and

                                    Annex B-2

<PAGE>

                  (b)      The entire remaining unpaid Purchase Price of all
Receivables purchased by the Company from the Originator pursuant to the
Purchase and Sale Agreement shall be due and payable on the Final Maturity Date.

                  Subject to the Subordination Provisions set forth below, the
principal amount of and accrued interest on this Revolving Note may be prepaid
on any Business Day without premium or penalty.

         7.       Payment Mechanics. All payments of principal and interest
hereunder are to be made in lawful money of the United States of America.

         8.       Enforcement Expenses. In addition to and not in limitation of
the foregoing, but subject to the Subordination Provisions set forth below and
to any limitation imposed by applicable law, the Company agrees to pay all
expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses, incurred by
the Originator in seeking to collect any amounts payable hereunder which are not
paid when due.

         9.       Subordination Provisions. The Originator and any other holder
of this Revolving Note (collectively, the Originator and any such other holder
are called the "Holder"), by its acceptance of this Revolving Note, covenants
and agrees on behalf of itself and any holder of this Revolving Note, that the
payment of the principal amount of and interest on this Revolving Note is hereby
expressly subordinated in right of payment to the payment and performance of the
Senior Interests to the extent and in the manner set forth in the following
clauses of this paragraph 9:

                  (a)      No payment or other distribution of the Company's
assets of any kind or character, whether in cash, securities, or other rights or
property, shall be made on account of this Revolving Note except to the extent
such payment or other distribution is (i) permitted under the covenants of the
Company set forth in paragraph 1(s) of Exhibit IV of the Receivables Purchase
Agreement or (ii) made pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) of paragraph 6 of this
Revolving Note;

                  (b)      In the event of any dissolution, winding up,
liquidation, readjustment, reorganization or other similar event relating to the
Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, partial or complete, and whether in
bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership proceedings, or upon an assignment for
the benefit of creditors, or any other marshalling of the assets and liabilities
of the Company or any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company other than as permitted by the Purchase and Sale Agreement (such
proceedings being herein collectively called "Bankruptcy Proceedings"), the
Senior Interests shall first be paid and performed in full and in cash before
the Originator shall be entitled to receive and to retain any payment or
distribution in respect of this Revolving Note. In order to implement the
foregoing during any Bankruptcy Proceeding: (i) all payments and distributions
of any kind or character in respect of this Revolving Note to which Holder would
be entitled except for this clause (b) shall be made directly to the Agent (for
the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders); (ii) Holder shall promptly file a
claim or claims, in the form required in any Bankruptcy Proceedings, for the
full outstanding amount of this Revolving Note, and shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to cause said claim or claims to be approved and all payments
and other distributions in respect thereof to be made directly to the Agent (for
the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders) until the

                                    Annex B-3

<PAGE>

Senior Interests shall have been paid and performed in full and in cash; and
(iii) Holder hereby irrevocably agrees that the Issuer (or the Agent acting on
the Issuer's behalf), in the name of Holder or otherwise, may demand, sue for,
collect, receive and receipt for any and all such payments or distributions, and
file, prove and vote or consent in any such Bankruptcy Proceedings with respect
to any and all claims of Holder relating to this Revolving Note, in each case
until the Senior Interests shall have been paid and performed in full and in
cash;

                  (c)      In the event that Holder receives any payment or
other distribution of any kind or character from the Company or from any other
source whatsoever, in respect of this Revolving Note, other than as expressly
permitted by the terms of this Revolving Note, such payment or other
distribution shall be received in trust for the Senior Interest Holders and
shall be turned over by Holder to the Agent (for the benefit of the Senior
Interest Holders) forthwith. Holder will mark its books and records so as
clearly to indicate that this Revolving Note is subordinated in accordance with
the terms hereof. All payments and distributions received by the Agent in
respect of this Revolving Note, to the extent received in or converted into
cash, may be applied by the Agent (for the benefit of the Senior Interest
Holders) first to the payment of any and all expenses (including reasonable
attorneys' fees and legal expenses) paid or incurred by the Senior Interest
Holders in enforcing these Subordination Provisions, or in endeavoring to
collect or realize upon this Revolving Note, and any balance thereof shall,
solely as between the Originator and the Senior Interest Holders, be applied by
the Agent (in the order of application set forth in Section 1.4(d)(ii) of the
Receivables Purchase Agreement) toward the payment of the Senior Interests; but
as between the Company and its creditors, no such payments or distributions of
any kind or character shall be deemed to be payments or distributions in respect
of the Senior Interests;

                  (d)      Notwithstanding any payments or distributions
received by the Senior Interest Holders in respect of this Revolving Note, while
any Bankruptcy Proceedings are pending Holder shall not be subrogated to the
then existing rights of the Senior Interest Holders in respect of the Senior
Interests until the Senior Interests have been paid and performed in full and in
cash. If no Bankruptcy Proceedings are pending, Holder shall only be entitled to
exercise any subrogation rights that it may acquire (by reason of a payment or
distribution to the Senior Interest Holders in respect of this Revolving Note)
to the extent that any payment arising out of the exercise of such rights would
be permitted under the covenants of the Company set forth in paragraph 1(s) of
Exhibit IV of the Receivables Purchase Agreement;

                  (e)      These Subordination Provisions are intended solely
for the purpose of defining the relative rights of Holder, on the one hand, and
the Senior Interest Holders on the other hand. Nothing contained in these
Subordination Provisions or elsewhere in this Revolving Note is intended to or
shall impair, as between the Company, its creditors (other than the Senior
Interest Holders) and Holder, the Company's obligation, which is unconditional
and absolute, to pay Holder the principal of and interest on this Revolving Note
as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms
hereof or to affect the relative rights of Holder and creditors of the Company
(other than the Senior Interest Holders);

                  (f)      Holder shall not, until the Senior Interests have
been paid and performed in full and in cash, (i) cancel, waive, forgive,
transfer or assign, or commence legal proceedings to enforce or collect, or
subordinate to any obligation of the Company, howsoever created,

                                    Annex B-4

<PAGE>

arising or evidenced, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, or now
or hereafter existing, or due or to become due, other than the Senior Interests,
this Revolving Note or any rights in respect hereof or (ii) convert this
Revolving Note into an equity interest in the Company, unless Holder shall have
received the prior written consent of the Agent and the Issuer in each case;

                  (g)      Holder shall not, without the advance written consent
of the Agent and the Issuer, commence, or join with any other Person in
commencing, any Bankruptcy Proceedings with respect to the Company until at
least one year and one day shall have passed since the Senior Interests shall
have been paid and performed in full and in cash;

                  (h)      If, at any time, any payment (in whole or in part) of
any Senior Interest is rescinded or must be restored or returned by a Senior
Interest Holder (whether in connection with Bankruptcy Proceedings or
otherwise), these Subordination Provisions shall continue to be effective or
shall be reinstated, as the case may be, as though such payment had not been
made;

                  (i)      Each of the Senior Interest Holders may, from time to
time, at its sole discretion, without notice to Holder, and without waiving any
of its rights under these Subordination Provisions, take any or all of the
following actions: (i) retain or obtain an interest in any property to secure
any of the Senior Interests; (ii) retain or obtain the primary or secondary
obligations of any other obligor or obligors with respect to any of the Senior
Interests; (iii) extend or renew for one or more periods (whether or not longer
than the original period), alter or exchange any of the Senior Interests, or
release or compromise any obligation of any nature with respect to any of the
Senior Interests; (iv) amend, supplement, amend and restate, or otherwise modify
any Transaction Document; and (v) release its security interest in, or
surrender, release or permit any substitution or exchange for all or any part of
any rights or property securing any of the Senior Interests, or extend or renew
for one or more periods (whether or not longer than the original period), or
release, compromise, alter or exchange any obligations of any nature of any
obligor with respect to any such rights or property;

                  (j)      Holder hereby waives: (i) notice of acceptance of
these Subordination Provisions by any of the Senior Interest Holders; (ii)
notice of the existence, creation, non-payment or non-performance of all or any
of the Senior Interests; and (iii) all diligence in enforcement, collection or
protection of, or realization upon, the Senior Interests, or any thereof, or any
security therefor;

                  (k)      Each of the Senior Interest Holders may, from time to
time, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Transaction
Documents to which such Persons are party, but without notice to Holder, assign
or transfer any or all of the Senior Interests, or any interest therein; and,
notwithstanding any such assignment or transfer or any subsequent assignment or
transfer thereof, such Senior Interests shall be and remain Senior Interests for
the purposes of these Subordination Provisions, and every immediate and
successive assignee or transferee of any of the Senior Interests or of any
interest of such assignee or transferee in the Senior Interests shall be
entitled to the benefits of these Subordination Provisions to the same extent as
if such assignee or transferee were the assignor or transferor; and

                                    Annex B-5

<PAGE>

                  (l)      These Subordination Provisions constitute a
continuing offer from the holder of this Revolving Note to all Persons who
become the holders of, or who continue to hold, Senior Interests; and these
Subordination Provisions are made for the benefit of the Senior Interest
Holders, and the Agent may proceed to enforce such provisions on behalf of each
of such Persons.

         10.      General. No failure or delay on the part of the Originator in
exercising any power or right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor
shall any single or partial exercise of any such power or right preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right.
No amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent with respect to, any
provision of this Revolving Note shall in any event be effective unless (i) the
same shall be in writing and signed and delivered by the Company and Holder and
(ii) all consents required for such actions under the Transaction Documents
shall have been received by the appropriate Persons.

         11.      Maximum Interest. Notwithstanding anything in this Revolving
Note to the contrary, the Company shall never be required to pay unearned
interest on any amount outstanding hereunder and shall never be required to pay
interest on the principal amount outstanding hereunder at a rate in excess of
the maximum interest rate that may be contracted for, charged or received under
applicable federal or state law (such maximum rate being herein called the
"Highest Lawful Rate"). If the effective rate of interest which would otherwise
by payable under this Revolving Note would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, or if
the holder of this Revolving Note shall receive any unearned interest or shall
receive monies that are deemed to constitute interest which would increase the
effective rate of interest payable by the Company under this Revolving Note to a
rate in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then (i) the amount of interest which
would otherwise by payable by the Company under this Revolving Note shall be
reduced to the amount allowed by applicable law, and (ii) any unearned interest
paid by the Company or any interest paid by the Company in excess of the Highest
Lawful Rate shall be refunded to the Company. Without limitation of the
foregoing, all calculations of the rate of interest contracted for, charged or
received by the Originator under this Revolving Note that are made for the
purpose of determining whether such rate exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate
applicable to the Originator (such Highest Lawful Rate being herein called the
"Originator's Maximum Permissible Rate") shall be made, to the extent permitted
by usury laws applicable to the Originator (now or hereafter enacted), by
amortizing, prorating and spreading in equal parts during the actual period
during which any amount has been outstanding hereunder all interest at any time
contracted for, charged or received by the Originator in connection herewith. If
at any time and from time to time (i) the amount of interest payable to the
Originator on any date shall be computed at the Originator's Maximum Permissible
Rate pursuant to the provisions of the foregoing sentence and (ii) in respect of
any subsequent interest computation period the amount of interest otherwise
payable to the Originator would be less than the amount of interest payable to
the Originator computed at the Originator's Maximum Permissible Rate, then the
amount of interest payable to the Originator in respect of such subsequent
interest computation period shall continue to be computed at the Originator's
Maximum Permissible Rate until the total amount of interest payable to the
Originator shall equal the total amount of interest which would have been
payable to the Originator if the total amount of interest had been computed
without giving effect to the provisions of the foregoing sentence.

                                    Annex B-6

<PAGE>

         12.      No Negotiation. This Revolving Note is not negotiable except
that is may be assigned to any Affiliate of the Originator.

         13.      GOVERNING LAW. THIS COMPANY NOTE HAS BEEN DELIVERED IN THE
STATE OF NEW YORK, AND SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A CONTRACT MADE UNDER AND GOVERNED
BY THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

         14.      Captions. Paragraph captions used in this Revolving Note are
