            NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good
and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the
parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

            SECTION 1. Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used and not defined

clauses (i), (ii) and (vi) below, the other Security Documents) as follows:

                  (i) to provide that all the Obligations will be secured by a
            second Lien, junior to the Lien securing the US Term Facility
            Obligations, the US Revolving Facility Obligations, the US
            Miscellaneous Obligations and the Collateral Agent Obligations, by
            all the US Facilities Pledged Collateral and the US Facilities

            Facilities Article 9 Collateral constituting Indenture Properties or
            "manufacturing facilities", as defined in the Swiss Franc Note
            Agreement, to the extent the securing of the ABL Facilities
            Obligations with such Collateral would require that Indebtedness
            under the Indentures be ratably secured), and by the Borrower's
            headquarters building in Akron, Ohio;

                  (ii) to provide that, at such time as any Senior
            Subordinated-Lien Indebtedness shall be issued, the Guarantees by
            the Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors of the Revolving
            Obligations (and, if the Borrower and the Collateral Agent shall at
            any time hereafter so agree, the Term Obligations) under and as
            defined in the European Facilities Agreement will be secured,
            equally and ratably with the Senior Subordinated-Lien Indebtedness
            (and subordinate to the other Liens on such Collateral created by
            the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement), by the ABL Facilities
            Collateral, the US Facilities Pledged Collateral and the US
            Facilities Article 9 Collateral (other than any such US Facilities
            Article 9 Collateral constituting Indenture Properties or
            "manufacturing facilities", as defined in the Swiss Franc Note
            Agreement), and by the Borrower's headquarters building in Akron,
            Ohio;

                  (iii) to provide that amounts received by the holders of
            Obligations secured by Junior Liens as a result of the subordination
            to such Junior Liens of the Liens securing any Senior
            Subordinated-Lien Indebtedness will be treated in the same manner
            under the subordination provisions of the Guarantee and Collateral
            Agreement as amounts received from the Borrower;

                  (iv) to modify Section 11.03(b) to confirm that the Junior
            Lien on the ABL Facilities Collateral will be senior to the Lien on
            such Collateral securing any Senior Subordinated-Lien Indebtedness
            notwithstanding the use of any proceeds of any Senior
            Subordinated-Lien Indebtedness to repay amounts outstanding under
            the ABL Facilities;

                  (v) to modify Section 11.04 to provide that the Junior Lien on
            the Intellectual Property consisting of Trademarks securing the ABL
            Facilities Obligations will be senior to the Lien on such
            Intellectual Property securing any Senior Subordinated-Lien
            Indebtedness;

                  (vi) to effect such other changes as the Collateral Agent
            shall deem appropriate in connection with the issuance of any Senior
            Subordinated-Lien Indebtedness, the creation of the Liens securing
            such Indebtedness, the subordination of such Liens to the Liens
            created by the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and the
            implementation of the matters set forth in this Section 3; and

                  (vii) to modify Section 13.13 to provide for the release of
            the security interests in up to 14% of the stock of C A Goodyear de
            Venezuela held by

                                      -2-
<PAGE>

            the Borrower in connection with the sale of such stock by the
            Borrower to Goodyear do Brasil Productos de Borraca Ltda (Brasil) in
            a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreements (as defined
            therein) for consideration consisting of up to $10,000,000 of cash.

            (b) The undersigned Lenders further authorize and direct the
Collateral Agent to execute and deliver such amendments to the Security
Documents as may in its judgment be appropriate for the following purposes:

                  (i) to provide that the Liens securing the ABL Facilities
            Obligations will, insofar as they are applicable to cash deposited
            to collateralize letter of credit reimbursement obligations pursuant
            to Section 2.04(b) of the US Revolving Facility Agreement, be
            subordinate to the Liens securing such letter of credit
            reimbursement obligations;

                  (ii) to provide that all the Obligations will be secured by a
            second Lien on all real property subject to Liens securing the US
            Term Facility Obligations, the US Revolving Facility Obligations,
            the US Miscellaneous Obligations or the Collateral Agent Obligations
            to the extent the securing of the Obligations with such Collateral
            would not require that Indebtedness under the Indentures be ratably
            secured; and

                  (iii) to confirm that the US Term Facility Obligations, the US
            Revolving Facility Obligations, the ABL Facilities Obligations and
            the US Miscellaneous Obligations are and will be secured by not more
            than 65% of the issued and outstanding voting Equity Interests of
            Luxembourg Finance.

            (c) The undersigned Lenders further authorize and direct the
Collateral Agent, on or after the Effective Date, to execute and deliver the
Lien Subordination and Intercreditor Agreement. Each Lender party to the Credit
Agreement from time to time will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by the
provisions of the Lien Subordination and Intercreditor Agreement to the same
extent as if it had executed such Agreement as a party thereto.

            SECTION 4. Representations and Warranties. The Borrower hereby
represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that:

            (a) On the date hereof and at the time the amendments provided for
herein become effective under Section 6, no Default shall have occurred and be

            (b) The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of this

except to the extent that no Material Adverse Change would be materially likely
to result, do not and will not require any registration with, consent or
approval of, notice to or action by, any Person (including any Governmental
Authority) in order to be effective and enforceable.

                                      -3-

creditors' rights generally and subject to general principles of equity,

                  -     Prior to the date (the "US Facilities Termination Date")

                        required to be maintained by the corresponding covenants
                        of the Credit Agreement (it being understood that
                        additional maintenance financial covenants may be
                        included in any SSLI Documentation and, if they are,

Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.04(e) may be given not later than
10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such
telephonic Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed
promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written
Borrowing Request signed by the Borrower. Each such telephonic and written
Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with
Section 2.02:

                                       39
<PAGE>

            (i) the Class of the requested Borrowing;

            (ii) the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing;

            (iii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;

            (iv) whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a
      Eurodollar Borrowing;

            (v) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, the initial Interest
      Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by
      the definition of the term "Interest Period"; and

            (vi) the location and number of the Borrower's account to which
      funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of
      Section 2.05.

If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested
Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with
respect to any requested Eurodollar Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed
to have selected an Interest Period of one month's duration. Promptly following
receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the
Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the
amount of such Lender's Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

            SECTION 2.04. Letters of Credit. (a) General. Subject to the terms
and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may request the issuance (or the
amendment, renewal or extension) of Letters of Credit for its own account, in a
form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the applicable
Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Revolving
Availability Period. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and
conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter
of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or
entered into by the Borrower with, any Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of
Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. The Borrower
may at any time redesignate letters of credit issued and outstanding under the
US Revolving Facility Agreement as Letters of Credit hereunder; provided, that
(i) the Borrower shall by notice to the Administrative Agent identify the
letters of credit to be redesignated as Letters of Credit hereunder (each of
which shall have been issued by a Lender that is an Issuing Bank under this
Agreement) and certify that the conditions to such redesignation set forth in
the following clause (ii) are satisfied; and (ii) no redesignation of a letter
of credit shall become effective hereunder unless after giving effect to such
redesignation no Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the
conditions precedent to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a
Letter of Credit under clause (b) below shall be satisfied. The Revolving
Lenders hereby agree that upon the effectiveness of any such redesignation, each
Issuing Bank that has issued any such letter of credit under the US Revolving
Facility Agreement shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto,
to have granted to each Revolving Lender, and each such Lender shall be deemed
to have purchased from such Issuing Bank, a

                                       40
<PAGE>

participation in such Letter of Credit in accordance with paragraph (d) below.
On and after the effectiveness of any such redesignation, such letter of credit
shall constitute a Letter of Credit for all purposes hereof.

            (b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain
Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment,
renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall
hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if
arrangements for doing so have been approved by the applicable Issuing Bank) to
an Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the
requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting
the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be
amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment,
renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such
Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this
Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the
beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare,
amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by any Issuing Bank,
the Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing
Bank's standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit;
provided that any provisions in any such letter of credit application that
create Liens securing the obligations of the Borrower thereunder or that are
inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement shall be of no force or
effect. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if
(and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the
Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to
such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the LC Exposure shall not
exceed $450,000,000, (ii) the aggregate amount of the Lenders' Revolving Credit
Exposures shall not exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments, (iii) the
Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Borrowing Base Availability and
(iv) the LC Exposure and the LC Exposure under and as defined in the US
Revolving Facility Agreement shall not, in the aggregate, exceed $600,000,000.

            (c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior
to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date one year after the date
of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or
extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date
that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date.

            (d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an
amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any
further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Lenders, such
Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender
hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit
equal to such Lender's Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available
to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of
the foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally
agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable
Issuing Bank, such Lender's Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made
by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the

                                       41
<PAGE>

date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement
payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Revolving
Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations
pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and
unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever,
including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the
occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the
Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset,
abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

            (e) Reimbursement. If any Issuing Bank shall make any LC
Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such
LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC
Disbursement not later than 1:30 p.m., New York City time, on the date that such
LC Disbursement is made, if the Borrower shall have received notice of such LC
Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date, or, if such
notice has not been received by the Borrower prior to such time on such date,
then not later than 1:30 p.m., New York City time, on (i) the Business Day that
the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is received prior to 10:00
a.m., New York City time, on the day of receipt, or (ii) the Business Day
immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such
notice is not received prior to such time on the day of receipt or (iii) if such
LC Disbursement is not less than the applicable minimum borrowing amount, on the
second Business Day after the day otherwise applicable under clause (i) or (ii);
provided that, if such LC Disbursement is not less than the applicable minimum
borrowing amount, unless the Borrower shall have notified the Administrative
Agent to the contrary, the Borrower will be deemed to have requested in
accordance with Section 2.03 that such payment be financed with an ABR Borrowing
in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower's
obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the
resulting ABR Borrowing. If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due,
the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of the applicable LC
Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such
Revolving Lender's Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of
such notice, each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its
Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrower, in the same
manner as provided in Section 2.05 with respect to Loans made by such Lender
(and Section 2.05 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of
the Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the
applicable Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Revolving
Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment
from the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall
distribute such payment to such Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving
Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing
Bank, then to such Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear.
Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse
any Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Loans as
contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the
Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

                                       42
<PAGE>

            (f) Obligations Absolute. The Borrower's obligation to reimburse LC
Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute,
unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and
irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of
Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or
other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged,
fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or
inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by any Issuing Bank under a Letter of
Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply
with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (iv) any other event or circumstance
whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for
the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or
provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower's obligations hereunder. None of
the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Lenders or the Issuing Banks, or any of
their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of
or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any
payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the
circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission,
interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or
other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any
document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of
technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the
Issuing Banks; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any
Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any damages
suffered by the Borrower or any Revolving Lender that are caused by such Issuing
Bank's gross negligence or willful misconduct. In furtherance of the foregoing
and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with
respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial
compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank
may, acting in good faith, either accept and make payment upon such documents
without responsibility for further investigation or refuse to accept and make
payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with
the terms of such Letter of Credit.

            (g) Disbursement Procedures. Each Issuing Bank shall, promptly
following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a
demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. Each Issuing Bank shall promptly
notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by
telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or
will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or
delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to
reimburse such Issuing Bank and the Lenders with respect to any such LC
Disbursement.

            (h) Interim Interest. If any Issuing Bank shall make any LC
Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in
full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall
bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is
made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC
Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Loans; provided that,
if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC

                                       43
<PAGE>

Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section
2.11(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for
the account of such Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the
date of payment by any Revolving Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this
Section to reimburse such Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender
to the extent of such payment.

            (i) Replacement of the Issuing Bank. Each Issuing Bank may be
replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative
Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The
Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Lenders of any such replacement
of such Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective,
the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced
Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.10(b). From and after the effective date of
any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights
and obligations of such Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to
Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term
"Issuing Bank" shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous
Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the
context shall require. After the replacement of any Issuing Bank hereunder, the
replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all
the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect
to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be
required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

            (j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and
be continuing, on the earlier of (i) the third Business Day after the Borrower
shall receive notice from the Administrative Agent or the Majority Lenders
demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph and (ii) the
date on which the maturity of the Loans shall be accelerated, unless prohibited
by the terms of any other New Facilities Credit Agreement, the Borrower shall
deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the
Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders, an amount in
cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid
interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral
shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately
due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence
of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in clause (h) or
(i) of Article VII. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as
collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower
under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and
control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other
than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investment
shall be in Permitted Investments and shall be made in the discretion of the
Administrative Agent and at the Borrower's risk and expense, such deposits shall
not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall
accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the
Administrative Agent to reimburse each Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for
which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be
held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for
the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been
accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Lenders with LC Exposures
representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure), be

                                       44
<PAGE>

applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. If
the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral under this
paragraph, then (i) if the maturity of the Loans has not been accelerated and
the LC Exposure shall be reduced to an amount below the amount so deposited, the
Administrative Agent will return to the Borrower any excess of the amount so
deposited over the LC Exposure and (ii) such amount (to the extent not applied
as provided above in this paragraph) shall be returned to the Borrower within
three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.

            SECTION 2.05. Funding of Borrowings. (a) Each Lender shall make each
Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of
immediately available funds by 12:30 p.m., New York City time, to the account of
the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by
notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available
to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to
an account designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request;
provided that ABR Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement
as provided in Section 2.04(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to
the applicable Issuing Bank.

            (b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from
a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not
make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender's share of such
Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such
share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section
and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a
corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share
of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the
applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative
Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for
each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the
Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at
(i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate
and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking
industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower,
the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to
the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender's Loan
included in such Borrowing. It is agreed that no payment by the Borrower under
this paragraph will be subject to any break-funding payment under Section 2.14.

            SECTION 2.06. Interest Elections. (a) Each Revolving Borrowing and
Term Loan Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable
Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an
initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the
Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue
such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest
Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect
different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing,
in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the

                                       45
<PAGE>

Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising
each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.

            (b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall
notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a
Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were
requesting a Revolving Borrowing or Term Borrowing of the Type resulting from
such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such
telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed
promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written
Interest Election Request signed by the Borrower.

            (c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall
specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

            (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies
      and, if different options are being elected with respect to different
      portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting
      Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to
      clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting
      Borrowing);

            (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such
      Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

            (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a
      Eurodollar Borrowing; and

            (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the
      Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such
      election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the
      term "Interest Period".

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does
not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have
selected an Interest Period of one month's duration.

            (d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the
Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such
Lender's portion of each resulting Borrowing.

            (e) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election
Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest
Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided
herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to
an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the
request of the Majority Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an
Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to
or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and

                                       46
<PAGE>

(ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR
Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

            SECTION 2.07. Termination of Commitments; Reductions of Commitments.
(a) The Tranche A Term Loan Commitments terminated on the Original Effective
Date. Unless previously terminated, (i) the Tranche B Term Loan Commitments
shall terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Restatement Effective
Date and (ii) the Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date.

            (b) The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time
reduce, the Commitments of any Class; provided that (i) each reduction of the
Commitments of any Class shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of
$1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 and (ii) the Borrower shall not
terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any
concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.09,
the total Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the total Revolving
Commitments.

            (c) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any
election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this
Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such
termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date
thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent
shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the
Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice
of termination of the Revolving Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state
that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit
facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice
to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such
condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments of
any Class shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments of any Class
shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective
Commitments of such Class.

            SECTION 2.08. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrower
hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the
account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan
of such Lender on the Maturity Date and (ii) to the Administrative Agent for the
account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Term Loan of
such Lender on the Maturity Date.

            (b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice
an account or accounts evidencing the Indebtedness of the Borrower to such
Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of
principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time
hereunder.

            (c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it
shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type
thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any
principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the
Borrower to each Lender hereunder and

                                       47
<PAGE>

(iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for
the account of the Lenders and each Lender's share thereof.

            (d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to
paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the
existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the
failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or
any error therein (including any failure to record the making or repayment of
any Loan) shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay
the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or prevent the
Borrower's obligations in respect of Loans from being discharged to the extent
of amounts actually paid in respect thereof.

            (e) Any Lender may request that Loans of any Class made by it be
evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare,
execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of
such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered
assigns) in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit C hereto. Thereafter,
the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all
times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by
one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee
named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee
and its registered assigns).

            SECTION 2.09. Prepayment of Loans. (a) The Borrower shall have the
right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in
part, subject to paragraph (c) of this Section and to prior notice in accordance
with paragraph (d) of this Section.

            (b) The Borrower shall (i) in the event and on each occasion that
the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures exceed the total Revolving Commitments,
not later than the next Business Day, and (ii) in the event and on each occasion
that the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures exceed the Borrowing Base
Availability then in effect, not later than the next Business Day after any date
on which a Borrowing Base Certificate or interim calculation of Eligible
Accounts Receivable is due under Section 5.09(a) that shows or would show such
excess, prepay Revolving Borrowings in an aggregate amount equal to such excess,
and in the event that after such prepayment of Revolving Borrowings any such
excess shall remain, the Borrower shall deposit cash in an amount equal to such
excess as collateral for the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower in
respect of Letters of Credit. Any cash so deposited (and any cash previously
deposited pursuant to this paragraph) with the Administrative Agent shall be
held in an account over which the Administrative Agent shall have dominion and
control to the exclusion of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, including the
exclusive right of withdrawal. Other than any interest earned on the investment
of such deposits, which investment shall be in Permitted Investments and shall
be made in the discretion of the Administrative Agent (or, at any time when no
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, shall be made at the
direction of the Borrower) and at the Borrower's risk and expense, such deposits
shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall
accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied

by the Administrative Agent to reimburse each Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements
for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be
held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for
the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been
accelerated (but subject to the consent of Lenders with LC Exposures
representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy
other obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. If the Borrower has
provided cash collateral to secure the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower
in respect of Letters of Credit hereunder, then, so long as no Event of Default
shall exist, such cash collateral shall be released to the Borrower if so
requested by the Borrower at any time if and to the extent that, after giving
effect to such release, the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures will not exceed
the Borrowing Base Availability. In the event that after such prepayment of
Revolving Borrowings and the deposit of cash to collateralize reimbursement
obligations in respect of Letters of Credit hereunder any such excess shall
remain, the Borrower shall prepay Term Borrowings in an aggregate amount equal
to such remaining excess (or, to the extent of not more than $80,000,000 of such
remaining excess, deposit cash collateral in an account with the Administrative
Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the
Lenders to secure the Obligations; provided that any amount in such account that
shall not have been applied to the payment of the Obligations shall be returned
to the Borrower at such time as no such remaining excess shall exist; provided
further that if after 60 days following the deposit of such cash collateral any
of such cash collateral shall not have been returned to the Borrower as provided
above, the Borrower shall at such time repay Term Borrowings in such amount (it
being understood that such cash collateral may be utilized to make such payment
at such time)).

            (c) Each prepayment of Term Loans shall be applied to the Tranche A
Term Loans and the Tranche B Term Loans ratably in accordance with the amounts
of such Loans outstanding at the time of such prepayment.

            (d) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone
(confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of
prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 3:00 p.m., New York City
time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment or (ii) in the case of
prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time,
one Business Day before the date of prepayment; provided that if the Borrower
shall be required to make any prepayment hereunder by reason of Section 2.09(b),
such notice shall be delivered not later than the time at which such prepayment
is made. Each such notice shall be irrevocable, shall specify the prepayment
date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be
prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a
conditional notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments as contemplated
by Section 2.07, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of
termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.07. Promptly following
receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent
shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any
Borrowing (other than pursuant to Section 2.09(b)) shall be in an amount that
would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as
provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied
ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid

                                       49
<PAGE>

Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent
required by Section 2.11.

            SECTION 2.10. Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee, accruing
at the rate of 0.75% per annum on the daily unused amount of the Revolving
Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the date hereof
to but excluding the date on which such Revolving Commitment terminates. Accrued
commitment fees shall be payable in arrears in the case of commitment fees in
respect of the Revolving Commitments, on the last day of March, June, September
and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Commitments
terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof. All
commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall
be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but
excluding the last day).

            (b) The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent, for
the account of each Lender a participation fee with respect to its
participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the rate of 4.00% per
annum on the average daily amount of such Lender's LC Exposure (excluding any
portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period
from and including the Restatement Effective Date to but excluding the later of
the date on which such Lender's Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on
which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to each Issuing Bank
a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate or rates per annum separately
agreed upon between the Borrower and the applicable Issuing Bank (on the date
hereof or any later date on which such Issuing Bank shall have become an Issuing
Bank), on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure attributable to Letters of
Credit issued by such Issuing Bank (excluding any portion thereof attributable
to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the
Restatement Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination
of the Revolving Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC
Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, as well
as such Issuing Bank's standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment,
renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings
thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including
the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be
payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the
first such date to occur after the Restatement Effective Date; provided that all
such accrued fees shall be payable on the date on which the Revolving
Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the
Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees
payable to the Issuing Banks pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within
10 days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed
on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of
days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

            (c) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its
own account, fees in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

                                       50
<PAGE>

            (d) On each date on which (i) Revolving Commitments are terminated
or reduced, (ii) Term Loans are repaid or prepaid (whether on a voluntary or
mandatory basis), (iii) the Revolving Availability Period is extended or (iv)
the Maturity Date is extended, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative
Agent for the account of each Lender holding a Revolving Commitment or Term
Loan, as applicable, on such date a fee equal to 2.00% or, at any time on or
after April 1, 2004, 1.00% of the amount of such Lender's Revolving Commitments
or Term Loans subject to such termination, reduction, repayment, prepayment or
extension.

            (e) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in
immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the Issuing
Banks, in case of fees payable to them) for distribution, in the case of
commitment fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any
circumstances.

            SECTION 2.11. Interest. (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing
shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus (i) in the case of Tranche A
Term Loans and Revolving Loans, 3.00% per annum and (ii) in the case of Tranche
B Term Loans, (A) on any Improved Ratings Day, 3.25% per annum and (B) on any
other day, 3.50% per annum.

            (b) The Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear
interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such
Borrowing plus (i) in the case of Tranche A Term Loans and Revolving Loans,
4.00% per annum and (ii) in the case of Tranche B Term Loans, (A) on any
Improved Ratings Day, 4.25% per annum and (B) on any other day, 4.50% per annum.

            (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest
on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not
paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such
overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate
per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2.00% plus
the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding
paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2.00% plus
the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section.

            (d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on
each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans,
upon termination of the Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) interest
accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand,
(ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a
prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Revolving
Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid
shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the
event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current
Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the
effective date of such conversion.

                                       51
<PAGE>

            (e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year
of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base
Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be
computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in
each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the
first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate or
Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such
determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

            SECTION 2.12. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the
commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:

            (a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall
      be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do
      not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest
      Period; or

            (b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Majority Lenders that
      the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and
      fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or
      maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such
      Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the
Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and,
until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the
circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest
Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or
continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective
and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such
Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing.

            SECTION 2.13. Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:

            (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit
      or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account
      of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement
      reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or any Issuing Bank; or

            (ii) impose on any Lender or any Issuing Bank or the London
      interbank market any other condition (other than Taxes) affecting this
      Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit
      or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such
Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its
obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or such
Issuing Bank of participations in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit
or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such
Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), in each
case by an amount deemed by such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to
be material then the Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate such

                                       52
<PAGE>

Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs
incurred or reduction suffered.

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

            (c) A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth the
amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or
its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of
this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower. The Borrower shall pay such
Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any
such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof, unless such amount is
being contested by the Borrower in good faith.

            (d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Bank to
demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of
such Lender's or such Issuing Bank's right to demand such compensation; provided
that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing
Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred
more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Bank
notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs
or reductions and of such Lender's or such Issuing Bank's intention to claim
compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise
to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period
referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect
thereof.

            SECTION 2.14. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the
payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an
Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of
Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day
of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert,
continue or prepay any Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered
pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section
2.09(c) and is revoked in accordance therewith), or (d) the assignment of any
Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable
thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.17, then,
in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost
and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such
loss, cost or expense to any Lender

                                       53
<PAGE>

shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess,
if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal
amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that
would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such
event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the
case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have
been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which
would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which
such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for
dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the
Eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or
amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall
be delivered to the Borrower. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount
shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof,
unless such amount is being contested by the Borrower in good faith.

            SECTION 2.15. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of
any obligation of the Borrower or any other Credit Party hereunder or under any
other Credit Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for
any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrower or any other
Credit Party shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes
from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so
that after making all required deductions of such Taxes (including deductions
applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative
Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to
the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made (and the
Borrower shall pay or cause such Credit Party to pay such increased amount),
(ii) the Borrower or such other Credit Party shall make such deductions and
(iii) the Borrower or such other Credit Party shall pay the full amount deducted
to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

            (b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the
relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

            (c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each
Issuing Bank and each Lender, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for
the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the
Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, on
or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the
Borrower or any other Credit Party hereunder or under any other Credit Document
(including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or
attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest
and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto,
whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally
imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to
the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender,
or the applicable Issuing Bank or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf
or on behalf of the applicable Issuing Bank or a Lender, shall be conclusive
absent manifest error.

                                       54
<PAGE>

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

            (e) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or
reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the
Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with
respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a
copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time such Foreign Lender first becomes
a party to this Agreement and at the time or times prescribed by applicable law,
such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law
or reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made
without withholding or at a reduced rate; provided that such Foreign Lender has
received written notice from the Borrower advising it of the availability of
such exemption or reduction and supplying all applicable documentation.

            SECTION 2.16. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of
Setoffs.

            (a) Except as required or permitted under Section 2.03, 2.04, 2.13,
2.14, 2.15, 2.17 or 9.03, each Borrowing, each payment or prepayment of
principal of any Borrowing or of any LC Disbursement, each payment of interest
on the Loans or the LC Disbursements, each payment of fees (other than fees
payable to the Issuing Banks), each reduction of the Commitments and each
refinancing of any Borrowing with a Borrowing of any Type, shall be allocated
pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments (or,
if such Commitments shall have expired or been terminated, in accordance with
the respective principal amounts of their outstanding Loans). Each Lender agrees
that in computing such Lender's portion of any Borrowing to be made hereunder,
the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, round each Lender's percentage
of such Borrowing to the next higher or lower whole dollar amount.

            (b) The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it
hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC
Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.13, 2.14 or 2.15 or
otherwise) prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date when due, in
immediately available funds, without setoff, counterclaim or other deduction.
Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the
Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding
Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments
shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 270 Park Avenue, New
York, New York, except payments to be made directly to an Issuing Bank as
expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.13,
2.14, 2.15, 2.17 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled
thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by
it for the account of any other Person in appropriate ratable shares to the
appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment
hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a

                                       55
<PAGE>

Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding
Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest
thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments
hereunder shall be made in dollars.

            (c) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available
to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed
LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be
applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder,
ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of
interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of
principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among
the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and
unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties. Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall not be
required to distribute any Collateral or proceeds of Collateral in a manner
inconsistent with the rights of the Tranche A Term Lenders and the Revolving
Lenders on the one hand, and the Tranche B Term Lenders on the other hand, under
Section 7.02.

            (d) If any Tranche A Term Lender or Revolving Lender shall, by
exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in
respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in
LC Disbursements resulting in such Tranche A Term Lender or Revolving Lender
receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans,
participations in LC Disbursements and accrued interest thereon than the
proportion received by any other Tranche A Term Lender or Revolving Lender, then
the Tranche A Term Lender or Revolving Lender receiving such greater proportion
shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and
participations in LC Disbursements of other Tranche A Term Lenders or Revolving
Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall
be shared by the Tranche A Term Lender or Revolving Lenders ratably in
accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on
their respective Loans and participations in LC Disbursements. If any Tranche B
Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise,
obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans
resulting in such Tranche B Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of
the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon than the
proportion received by any other Tranche B Lender, then the Tranche B Lender
receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value)
participations in the Loans of other Tranche B Lenders to the extent necessary
so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Tranche B
Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and
accrued interest on their respective Loans. If any participations are purchased
pursuant to the preceding sentences and all or any portion of the payments
giving rise thereto are recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and
the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest.
The provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment
made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of
this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the
assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations
in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to the

                                       56
<PAGE>

Borrower or any Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph
shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent
it may effectively do so under applicable law and under this Agreement, that any
Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may
exercise against the Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to
such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the
Borrower in the amount of such participation.

            (e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from
the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative
Agent for the account of the Lenders or any Issuing Bank hereunder that the
Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that
the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may,
in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing
Banks, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has
not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, as
the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith
on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest
thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to
it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the
greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the
Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank
compensation.

            (f) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made
by it hereunder for the account of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or
any Lender, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion
(notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter
received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy
such Lender's obligations in respect of such payment until all such unsatisfied
obligations are fully paid.

            SECTION 2.17. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If
any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.13 or if the Borrower is
required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental
Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, then such
Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for
funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations
hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment
of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce
amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.13 or 2.15, as the case may be, in the
future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or
expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower
hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in
connection with any such designation or assignment.

            (b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.13, or if
the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any
Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15,
or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder, then the
Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the
Administrative Agent, require

                                       57
<PAGE>

such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and
subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests,
rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume
such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such
assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior
written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not
unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an
amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC
Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts
payable to it hereunder, from the assignee or the Borrower, as the case may be,
and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for
compensation under Section 2.13 or payments required to be made pursuant to
Section 2.15, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or
payments.

                                   ARTICLE III

                         Representations and Warranties

            The Borrower represents and warrants to the Lenders that:

            SECTION 3.01. Organization; Powers. The Borrower and each of the
other Credit Parties is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, has all requisite power
and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and, except where the
failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, would not be reasonably
likely to result in a Material Adverse Change, is qualified to do business, and
is in good standing, in every jurisdiction where such qualification is required.
Each Subsidiary of the Borrower other than the Credit Parties is duly organized,
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its
organization, has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as
now conducted and is qualified to do business, and is in good standing, in every
jurisdiction where such qualification is required, except for failures that,
individually or in the aggregate, would not be materially likely to result in a
Material Adverse Change.

            SECTION 3.02. Authorization; Enforceability. The Transactions to be
entered into by each Credit Party are within such Credit Party's powers and have
been duly authorized. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the
Borrower and constitutes, and each other Credit Document to which any Credit
Party is to be a party, when executed and delivered by such Credit Party, will
constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower or such Credit
Party, as the case may be, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws
affecting creditors' rights generally and subject to general principles of
equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

            SECTION 3.03. Governmental Approvals; No Conflicts. Except to the
extent that no Material Adverse Change would be materially likely to result, the
Transactions (a) do not require any consent or approval of, registration or
filing with, or

                                       58
<PAGE>

any other action by, any Governmental Authority, except such as are required to
perfect Liens created under the Security Documents and such as have been
obtained or made and are in full force and effect, (b) will not violate any
applicable law or regulation or the charter, by-laws or other organizational
documents of the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries or any order of any
Governmental Authority, (c) will not violate or result in a default under any
indenture, agreement or other instrument binding upon the Borrower or any of the
Subsidiaries or any of their assets, and (d) will not result in the creation or
imposition of any Lien on any asset of the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries,
except Liens created under the Credit Documents.

            SECTION 3.04. Financial Statements; No Material Adverse Change. (a)
The Borrower has heretofore furnished to the Lenders a draft in substantially
final form of its consolidated balance sheet and statements of income,
stockholders' equity and cash flows as of and for the fiscal year ended December
31, 2002. Such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects,
the consolidated financial position and consolidated results of operations and
cash flows of the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries as of such dates
and for such fiscal year in accordance with GAAP.

            (b) Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Documents, since December
31, 2002, there has been no event or condition that constitutes or would be
materially likely to result in a Material Adverse Change, it being agreed that a
reduction in any rating relating to the Borrower issued by any rating agency
shall not, in and of itself, be an event or condition that constitutes or would
be materially likely to result in a Material Adverse Change (but that events or
conditions underlying or resulting from any such reduction may constitute or be
materially likely to result in a Material Adverse Change).

            SECTION 3.05. Litigation and Environmental Matters. (a) Except as
set forth in the Disclosure Documents, there are no actions, suits or
proceedings by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending or, to
the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened against or affecting the Borrower or
any of the Subsidiaries (i) as to which there is a reasonable possibility of an
adverse determination and that if adversely determined would be materially
likely, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Change
or (ii) that involve the Credit Documents or the Transactions.

            (b) Except as set forth in the Disclosure Documents, and except with
respect to matters that, individually or in the aggregate, would not be
materially likely to result in a Material Adverse Change, neither the Borrower
nor any of the Subsidiaries (i) has failed to comply with any Environmental Law
or to obtain, maintain or comply with any permit, license or other approval
required under any Environmental Law, (ii) has become subject to any
Environmental Liability, (iii) has received notice of any claim with respect to
any Environmental Liability or (iv) knows of any basis for any Environmental
Liability.

            SECTION 3.06. Compliance with Laws and Agreements. Each of the
Borrower and each of the Subsidiaries is in compliance with all laws,
regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority applicable to it or its
property and all indentures, agreements and other instruments binding upon it or
its property, except where the failure

                                       59
<PAGE>

to be in compliance, individually or in the aggregate, would not be materially
likely to result in a Material Adverse Change. No Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing.

            SECTION 3.07. Investment and Holding Company Status. Neither the
Borrower nor any of the Subsidiaries is (a) an "investment company" as defined
in, or subject to regulation under, the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, or (b) a "holding company" as defined in, or subject to regulation
under, the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended.

            SECTION 3.08. (a) ERISA and Canadian Pension Plans. Except as
disclosed in the Disclosure Documents, no ERISA Event has occurred or is
reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other ERISA
Events that have occurred or are reasonably expected to occur, would be
materially likely to result in a Material Adverse Change.

            (b) The Canadian Pension Plans are duly registered under the Income
Tax Act (Canada) and all other applicable laws which require registration and no
event has occurred which is reasonably likely to cause the loss of such
registered status. All material obligations of each Credit Party (including
fiduciary, funding, investment and administration obligations) required to be
performed in connection with the Canadian Pension Plans and the funding
agreements therefor have been performed in a timely fashion. To the knowledge of
the Credit Parties there have been no improper withdrawals of the assets of the
Canadian Pension Plans or the Canadian Benefit Plans. There are no outstanding
material disputes concerning the assets of the Canadian Pension Plans or the
Canadian Benefit Plans. Each of the Canadian Pension Plans is being funded in
accordance with the actuarial valuation reports last filed with the applicable
Governmental Authorities and which are consistent with generally accepted
actuarial principles.

            SECTION 3.09. Disclosure. Neither the Information Memorandum nor the
reports, financial statements, certificates or other written information
referred to in Section 3.04 or delivered after the date hereof by or on behalf
of any Credit Party to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any
Lender pursuant to Section 5.01 (taken together with all other information so
furnished and as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished)
contained or will contain, in each case as of the date delivered, any material
misstatement of fact or omitted or will omit to state, in each case as of the
date delivered, any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in
the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;
provided that, with respect to projected financial information or other forward
looking information, the Borrower represents only that such information was
prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable at the
time.

            SECTION 3.10. Security Interests. (a) When executed and delivered,
each of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and the Canadian Security
Agreements will be effective to create in favor of the Collateral Agent for the
benefit of the Secured Parties a valid and enforceable security interest in the
ABL Facilities Collateral, to the

                                       60
<PAGE>

extent contemplated by the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or the Canadian
Security Agreements, as the case may be, and when financing statements in
appropriate form are filed, and any other applicable registrations are made, in
the offices specified in the Perfection Certificate, the Guarantee and
Collateral Agreement and the Canadian Security Agreements will create a
perfected security interest (or hypothec, as applicable) in all right, title and
interest of the Grantors in the ABL Facilities Collateral to the extent
perfection can be obtained by filing Uniform Commercial Code financing
statements and making such other applicable filings and registrations in such
jurisdictions, prior and superior to the rights of any other Person and subject
to no other Lien other than Permitted Encumbrances.

            (b) Upon (i) the recordation of the Guarantee and Collateral
Agreement or a memorandum of such Agreement with the United States Patent and
Trademark Office and (ii) the recordation of the Canadian Security Agreements
with the Canadian Intellectual Property Office, the Guarantee and Collateral
Agreement and the Canadian Security Agreements, as the case may be, will create
a perfected Lien on all right, title and interest of the Grantors in the
Material Trademarks in which a security interest may be perfected by such
recordation in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the Canadian
Intellectual Property Office, as the case may be, subject to Liens permitted
under Section 6.02 (it being understood that subsequent recordings in the United
States Patent and Trademark Office or the Canadian Intellectual Property Office,
as the case may be, may be necessary to perfect a Lien on registered trademarks
and trademark applications acquired by the Grantors after the Original Effective
Date). As of the Original Effective Date, Schedule 3.10(b) sets forth all the
Material Trademarks.

            (c) None of the Perfection Certificate or any other written
information relating to the Collateral delivered after the date hereof by or on
behalf of any Credit Party to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or
any Lender pursuant to any provision of any Credit Document is or will be
incorrect when delivered in any respect material to the rights or interests of
the Lenders under the Credit Documents.

            SECTION 3.11. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans will be
used only for the purposes referred to in the preamble to this Agreement. No
part of the proceeds of any Loan will be used, whether directly or indirectly,
for any purpose that entails a violation of any of the Regulations of the Board,
including Regulations T, U and X.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                                   Conditions

            SECTION 4.01. Each Credit Event. The obligation of each Lender to
make a Loan on the occasion of any Borrowing (other than a conversion or
continuation of an outstanding Borrowing) and of each Issuing Bank to issue,
amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, shall be subject to the
satisfaction of the following conditions:

                                       61
<PAGE>

            (a) The representations and warranties of the Borrower set forth in
      this Agreement and in the other Credit Documents (insofar as they relate
      to the transactions provided for herein or to the Collateral securing the
      Obligations) shall be true and correct in all respects material to the
      rights or interests of the Lenders under the Credit Documents on and as of
      the date of such Borrowing or the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or
      extension of such Letter of Credit, as applicable, with the same effect as
      though made on and as of such date, except to the extent such
      representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date.

            (b) After giving effect to such Borrowing or the issuance,
      amendment, renewal or extension of such Letter of Credit, as applicable,
      the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Borrowing
      Base Availability then in effect.

            (c) At the time of and immediately after giving effect to such
      Borrowing or the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of such Letter
      of Credit, as applicable, no Default or Event of Default shall have
      occurred and be continuing and no breach of the delivery requirements of
      Section 5.01(a) or (b) shall have occurred and be continuing.

Each Borrowing and each issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of
Credit shall be deemed to constitute a representation and warranty by the
Borrower on the date thereof as to the matters specified in paragraphs (a), (b)
and (c) of this Section.

                                   ARTICLE V

                              Affirmative Covenants

            Until the Commitments shall have expired or been terminated and the
principal of and interest on each Loan and all fees payable hereunder shall have
been paid in full and all Letters of Credit shall have expired or terminated and
all LC Disbursements shall have been reimbursed, the Borrower covenants and
agrees with the Lenders that:

            SECTION 5.01. Financial Statements and Other Information. The
Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent and each Lender:

            (a) as soon as available and in any event within 110 days after the
      end of each fiscal year of the Borrower, its audited consolidated balance
      sheet and related statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash
      flows as of the end of and for such year, setting forth in each case in
      comparative form the figures for the previous fiscal year, all reported on
      by PricewaterhouseCoopers or other independent public accountants of
      recognized national standing (without any qualification or exception as to
      the scope of such audit) to the effect that such consolidated financial
      statements present fairly in all material respects the financial condition
      and results of operations of the Borrower and its Consolidated
      Subsidiaries in accordance with GAAP consistently applied; and
      concurrently

                                       62
<PAGE>

      with the filing of the Borrower's annual report on Form 10-K, an annual
      operating plan prepared by management of the Borrower in a manner
      consistent with past practice, which annual operating plan shall include,
      for the fiscal year in which it is delivered, (i) annual and quarterly
      projected income statements, annual and quarterly projected statements of
      cash flow, and a projected year-end balance sheet as of the last day of
      such fiscal year, in each case, for the Borrower and its Consolidated
      Subsidiaries, and (ii) quarterly projections of unit and dollar sales,
      EBIT and operating cash flow by business unit;

            (b) as soon as available and in any event within 60 days after the
      end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of each fiscal year of the
      Borrower, its consolidated balance sheet and related statements of income,
      stockholders' equity and cash flows as of the end of and for such fiscal
      quarter and the then elapsed portion of the fiscal year, setting forth in
      each case in comparative form the figures for the corresponding period or
      periods of (or, in the case of the balance sheet, as of the end of) the
      previous fiscal year, all certified by one of its Financial Officers as
      presenting fairly in all material respects the financial condition and
      results of operations of the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries in
      accordance with GAAP consistently applied, subject to normal year-end
      audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes;

            (c) not later than one Business Day after each delivery of financial
      statements under clause (a) or (b) above, a certificate of a Financial
      Officer (i) certifying as to whether a Default has occurred and, if a
      Default has occurred, specifying the details thereof and any action taken
      or proposed to be taken with respect thereto, (ii) demonstrating
      compliance with Sections 6.08, 6.09, 6.10 and 6.11 at the end of the
      period to which such financial statements relate and for each applicable
      period then ended, (iii) stating whether any change in GAAP or in the
      application thereof has occurred since the date of the most recent audited
      financial statements delivered under clause (a) above (or, prior to the
      delivery of any such financial statements, since December 31, 2002) and,
      if any such change has occurred, specifying the effect of such change on
      the financial statements accompanying such certificate and (iv) specifying
      the exchange rate determined by the Borrower and used in its Annual
      Operating Plan for the then current fiscal year (which rate the Borrower
      agrees to determine reasonably);

            (d) promptly after the same become publicly available, copies of all
      periodic and other reports, proxy statements and other materials filed by
      the Borrower or any Subsidiary with the United States Securities and
      Exchange Commission, or any Governmental Authority succeeding to any or
      all of the functions of said Commission, or with any national securities
      exchange, or distributed by the Borrower to its shareholders generally, as
      the case may be;

            (e) at the time of each delivery of financial statements under
      clause (a) or (b) above, and at such other times as the Borrower may
      determine, a certificate of a Financial Officer identifying each Domestic
      Subsidiary formed or acquired after the Original Effective Date and not
      previously identified in a certificate delivered

                                       63
<PAGE>

      pursuant to this paragraph, stating whether each such Domestic Subsidiary
      is a Consent Subsidiary and describing the factors that shall have led to
      the identification of any such Domestic Subsidiary as a Consent
      Subsidiary;

            (f) from time to time, all information and documentation required to
      be delivered under Section 4.04 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement;

            (g) at the time of each delivery of financial statements under
      clause (a) or (b) above, a certificate of a Financial Officer of the
      Borrower certifying that the requirements of Section 5.08 have been
      satisfied in all material respects; and

            (h) promptly following any request therefor, such other information
      regarding the operations, business affairs and financial condition of the
      Borrower or any Subsidiary, or compliance with the terms of this Agreement
      or the other Credit Documents, or the perfection of the security interests
      created by the Security Documents, as the Administrative Agent or any
      Lender may reasonably request.

            Information required to be delivered pursuant to this Section 5.01
shall be deemed to have been delivered if such information, or one or more
annual or quarterly reports containing such information, shall have been posted
by the Administrative Agent on an IntraLinks or similar site to which the
Lenders have been granted access or shall be available on the website of the
Securities and Exchange Commission at http://www.sec.gov; provided that the
Borrower shall deliver paper copies of such information to any Lender that
requests such delivery. Information required to be delivered pursuant to this
Section 5.01 may also be delivered by electronic communications pursuant to
procedures approved by the Administrative Agent.

            SECTION 5.02. Notices of Defaults. The Borrower will furnish to the
Administrative Agent and each Lender prompt written notice of the occurrence of
any Default, together with a statement of a Financial Officer or other executive
officer of the Borrower setting forth the details of the event or development
requiring such notice and any action taken or proposed to be taken with respect
thereto.

            SECTION 5.03. Existence; Conduct of Business. The Borrower will, and
will cause each of the Subsidiaries to, do or cause to be done all things
necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its legal
existence and the rights, licenses, permits, privileges and franchises material
to the conduct of its business, except to the extent that failures to keep in
effect such rights, licenses, permits, privileges and franchises would not be
materially likely, individually or in the aggregate for all such failures, to
result in a Material Adverse Change; provided that the foregoing shall not
prohibit any merger, consolidation, liquidation or dissolution permitted under
Section 6.04.

            SECTION 5.04. Maintenance of Properties. The Borrower will, and will
cause each of the Subsidiaries to, keep and maintain all its property in good
working order and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, except to the
extent any failure to

                                       64
<PAGE>

      do so would not, individually or in the aggregate, be materially likely to
      result in a Material Adverse Change (it being understood that the
      foregoing shall not prohibit any sale of any assets permitted by Section
      6.06).

            SECTION 5.05. Books and Records; Inspection and Audit Rights; Access
Rights. (a) The Borrower will, and will cause each of the Subsidiaries to, keep
books of record and account sufficient to enable the Borrower to prepare the
financial statements and other information required to be delivered under
Section 5.01. The Borrower will, and will cause each of the Subsidiaries to,
permit any representatives designated by the Administrative Agent (or by any
Lender acting through the Administrative Agent), upon reasonable prior notice,
to visit and inspect its properties (accompanied by a representative of the
Borrower) and to discuss its affairs, finances and condition with its officers,
all at such reasonable times and as often as reasonably requested.

            (b) The Borrower will, and will cause each of the other Grantors to,
permit any representatives designated by the Administrative Agent (including any
consultants, accountants, lawyers and appraisers retained by the Administrative
Agent) (or by any Lender acting through the Administrative Agent) to conduct
quarterly evaluations and semiannual appraisals of the Borrower's computation of
the Borrowing Base and the assets included in the Borrowing Base (and
information relating to Customer Capital Expenditures) and such other assets and
properties of the Borrower or the Subsidiaries as the Administrative Agent or
Majority Lenders may reasonably require, all at reasonable times and upon
advance notice to the Borrower and, if reasonably requested at any time when
Borrowing Base Availability shall be less than $100,000,000, more often than
quarterly, in the case of evaluations, or semiannually, in the case of
appraisals. The Borrower shall pay the reasonable fees (including reasonable and
customary internally allocated fees and expenses of employees of the
Administrative Agent as to which invoices have been furnished) and expenses of
any third party representatives retained by the Administrative Agent as to which
invoices have been furnished to conduct any such evaluation or appraisal,
including the reasonable fees and expenses associated with collateral monitoring
services performed by the Collateral Agent Services Group of the Administrative
Agent to the extent not otherwise agreed in writing by the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent. To the extent required by the Administrative Agent or the
Majority Lenders in their discretion (not to be exercised unreasonably) as a
result of any such evaluation, appraisal or monitoring, the Borrower also agrees
to modify or adjust the computation of the Borrowing Base (which may include
maintaining additional reserves or modifying the eligibility criteria for the
components of the Borrowing Base, but not modifying the specifically enumerated
advance rates specified in the definition of the "Borrowing Base"). Any such
modification or adjustment required by the Administrative Agent or the Majority
Lenders shall be made by written notice to the Borrower setting forth in
reasonable detail the basis for such modification or adjustment, and shall
become effective for purposes of the first Borrowing Base Certificate that is
delivered pursuant to Section 5.09 at least five Business Days after the date of
receipt by the Borrower of such written notice.

            (c) In the event that historical accounting practices, systems or
reserves relating to the components of the Borrowing Base are modified in a
manner that is

                                       65
<PAGE>

adverse to the Lenders in any material respect, the Borrower will agree to
maintain such additional reserves (for purposes of computing the Borrowing Base)
in respect of the components of the Borrowing Base and make such other
adjustments to its parameters for including the components of the Borrowing Base
as the Administrative Agent or the Majority Lenders in their discretion (not to
be exercised unreasonably) shall reasonably require based upon such
modifications.

            SECTION 5.06. Compliance with Laws. The Borrower will, and will
cause each of the Subsidiaries to, comply with all laws, including Environmental
Laws, rules, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority applicable to
it or its property, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the
aggregate, would not be materially likely to result in a Material Adverse
Change.

            SECTION 5.07. Insurance. The Borrower will, and will cause each of
the Subsidiaries to, maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurance
companies, insurance in such amounts and against such risks as are customary
among companies of established reputation engaged in the same or similar
businesses and operating in the same or similar locations, except to the extent
the failure to do so would not be materially likely to result in a Material
Adverse Change. The Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent or any
Lender, upon request, information in reasonable detail as to the insurance so
maintained.

            SECTION 5.08. Guarantees and Collateral. (a) In the event that there
shall at any time exist any North American Subsidiary (other than an Excluded
Subsidiary or Consent Subsidiary) that shall not be a party to the Guarantee and
Collateral Agreement or the Canadian Security Agreements, as the case may be,
the Borrower will promptly notify the Collateral Agent (including in such notice
the information that would have been required to be set forth with respect to
such Subsidiary in the Perfection Certificate if such Subsidiary had been one of
the Grantors listed therein) and will, within 30 days (or such longer period as
may be reasonable under the circumstances) after such notification, deliver to
the Collateral Agent a supplement to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or
the Canadian Security Agreements, as the case may be, in substantially the form
specified therein, duly executed and delivered on behalf of such North American
Subsidiary, pursuant to which such North American Subsidiary will become a party
to and a Subsidiary Guarantor and, if it elects to become an ABL Facilities
Grantor or if its consolidated assets are greater than $10,000,000 as of
December 31, 2002, or if later, as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter
for which financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a)
or (b), an ABL Facilities Grantor, in each case as defined in the Guarantee and
Collateral Agreement.

            (b) In the event that the Borrower or any other Grantor shall at any
time own any Material Trademarks (other than Material Trademarks as to which the
actions required by this paragraph have already been taken), the Borrower will
promptly notify the Collateral Agent and will file all Uniform Commercial Code
financing statements or other applicable personal property security law filings
and recordations with the Patent and Trademark Office or the Canadian
Intellectual Property Office as shall be required by law or reasonably requested
by the Collateral Agent to be filed or recorded to perfect the

Liens intended to be created on the ABL Facilities Collateral (to the extent
such Liens may be perfected by filings under the Uniform Commercial Code or
other personal property security legislation as in effect in any applicable
jurisdiction or by filings with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or
the Canadian Intellectual Property Office); provided, that if the consents of
Persons other than the Borrower and the Wholly Owned Subsidiaries would be
required under applicable law or the terms of any agreement in order for a
security interest to be created in any Material Trademark under the Guarantee
and Collateral Agreement or the Canadian Security Agreements, as the case may
be, a security interest shall not be required to be created in such Material
Trademark prior to the obtaining of such consents. The Borrower will endeavor in
good faith to obtain any consents required to permit any security interest in
Material Trademarks to be created under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement
or the Canadian Security Agreements, as the case may be.

            (c) The Borrower will, and will cause each Subsidiary to, execute
any and all further documents, financing statements, agreements and instruments,
and take all such further actions, as may be reasonably requested by the
Collateral Agent in order to cause the security interests purported to be
created by the Security Documents or required to be created under the terms of
this Agreement to constitute valid security interests, perfected in accordance
with this Agreement.

            (d) During the period of 45 days after the Original Effective Date,
the Borrower will endeavor in good faith to obtain any consents of third parties
required in order for each North American Subsidiary listed on Part II of
Schedule 1.01A to execute the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement as an ABL
Guarantor and, if its consolidated assets are greater than $10,000,000 as of
December 31, 2002, or if later, as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter
for which financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a)
or (b), an ABL Facilities Grantor and perform its obligations thereunder and
shall advise the Collateral Agent in writing whether such consents have been
obtained, and if such consents have been obtained, will cause such North
American Subsidiary to execute the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement as
provided in paragraph (a) above.

            (e) The Borrower will, as soon as reasonably practicable after the
Restatement Effective Date, cause the Obligations to be secured by (i) Mortgages
(which shall be junior in priority to the Mortgages securing the US Term
Facility Obligations, the US Revolving Facility Obligations and the US
Miscellaneous Obligations, as such terms are defined in the Guarantee and
Collateral Agreement) on all the Mortgaged Properties, with the aggregate amount
of the Indebtedness under this Agreement, the US Term Facility Agreement and the
US Revolving Facility Agreement that is secured by such Mortgaged Properties
being limited to the extent required in order that the Indebtedness under the
Indentures will not be required to be ratably secured, and (ii) perfected
pledges (which shall be junior in priority to the pledges securing the US Term
Facility Obligations, the US Revolving Facility Obligations and the US
Miscellaneous Obligations) of all Equity Interests in Foreign Subsidiaries that
are subject to the US Facilities Foreign Pledge Agreements (as defined in the
Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) or that are pledged under the Luxembourg
Finance Pledge Agreement (as

                                       67
<PAGE>

defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) to secure the US Term
Facility Obligations, the US Revolving Facility Obligations and the US
Miscellaneous Obligations. To the extent the Collateral Agent and the Borrower
so determine, the requirements of this paragraph may be satisfied by the
amendment of existing mortgages and pledge agreements to create the Liens
required to be created hereunder.

            SECTION 5.09. Borrowing Base Certificate. (a) The Borrower will
furnish to the Administrative Agent, no later than (a) 15 days following the end
of each fiscal month (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding
Business Day), a completed Borrowing Base Certificate showing the Borrowing Base
as of the close of business on the last day of such immediately preceding fiscal
month as outlined in Exhibit E, (b) the third Business Day of each week (or less
frequently if agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), an
interim calculation of Eligible Accounts Receivable as of Saturday of the
immediately preceding week and (c) if requested by the Administrative Agent, at
any other time when the Administrative Agent reasonably believes that the then
existing Borrowing Base Certificate is materially inaccurate, as soon as
reasonably practicable but in no event later than five Business Days after such
request, a completed Borrowing Base Certificate showing the Borrowing Base as of
the date so requested, in each case with such supporting documentation and
additional reports with respect to the Borrowing Base as the Administrative
Agent may reasonably request.

            (b) The Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent at the
time of each delivery of the Borrowing Base Certificate under clause (a) above
(and in any event not later than 15 days following the end of each fiscal month
(or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business day)), a
certificate of a Financial Officer in the form attached as Annex [ ] to Exhibit
E hereto specifying, to the best of such Financial Officer's knowledge, as of
the date of the information reported in such Borrowing Base Certificate (i) the
aggregate cash and cash equivalents of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries held in
the United States, (ii) the aggregate cash and cash equivalents of the Borrower
and its Subsidiaries held other than in the United States, (iii) for each of
this Agreement, the US Revolving Facility Agreement and the European Facilities
Agreement, the undrawn amount available to be drawn hereunder and thereunder,
respectively, (iv) the aggregate accounts payable position of the Borrower and
the Domestic Subsidiaries and (v) the unearned income on the Borrower's balance
sheet that represents funded Customer Capital Expenditures relating to future
production.

      Facility Agreement shall be reduced (i) in the case of the US Term
      Facility Agreement, by the aggregate amount of all prepayments of the
      loans outstanding thereunder and (ii) in the case of the US Revolving
      Facility Agreement, by the aggregate amount of all permanent reductions of

      the form of cash-collateralized letters of credit will in any event be
      permitted);

      to lend existing) on March 31, 2003, substantially all of which is set

      connection with such Person becoming a Subsidiary;

            (k) obligations of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries existing on the
      date hereof (other than Guarantees, Securitization Transactions and Sale
      and Leaseback Transactions) that would not constitute Indebtedness that

      Subsidiary to fund the payment of such Material Indebtedness;

            (g) any event or condition occurs that continues beyond any

      existing on the date hereof and (ii) any Material Indebtedness of any
      Foreign Subsidiary in an aggregate principal amount that is less than
      $50,000,000) or any trustee or agent on its or their behalf to cause such
      Material Indebtedness to become due, or to require the prepayment,
      repurchase, redemption, defeasance or termination thereof, prior to its
      scheduled maturity; provided, that this clause (g) shall not apply to (i)
      secured Indebtedness that becomes due as a result of the voluntary sale or
      transfer of the property or assets securing such Indebtedness in
      accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement or (ii)
      Material Indebtedness of any Foreign Subsidiary if the Borrower is unable,
      due to applicable law restricting Investments in such Foreign Subsidiary,
      to make an Investment in such Foreign Subsidiary to fund the payment of
      such Material Indebtedness;

            (h) an involuntary proceeding shall be commenced or an involuntary
      petition shall be filed seeking (i) liquidation, reorganization or other
      relief in respect of the Borrower or any Material Subsidiary or its debts,
      or of a substantial part of its assets, under any Federal, state or
      foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or
      hereafter in effect or (ii) the appointment of a receiver, trustee,

      for 90 days or an order or decree approving or ordering any of the
      foregoing shall be entered;

            (i) the Borrower or any Material Subsidiary shall (i) voluntarily

      effect, (ii) consent to the institution of, or fail to contest in a timely
      and appropriate manner, any proceeding or petition described in clause (h)
      of this Article, (iii) apply for or consent to the appointment of a

      to result in a Material Adverse Change;

<PAGE>

            (l) Liens created under the Security Documents shall not be valid
      and perfected Liens on a material portion of the Collateral;

            (m) any Guarantee of the Obligations under the Guarantee and
      Collateral Agreement shall fail to be a valid, binding and enforceable
      Guarantee of one or more Subsidiary Guarantors where such failure would
      constitute or be materially likely to result in a Material Adverse Change;
      or

            (n) a Change in Control shall occur;

then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to the Borrower
described in clause (h) or (i) of this Article), and at any time thereafter
during the continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent may, and at the
request of the Majority Lenders or the Majority Borrowing Base Lenders shall, by
notice to the Borrower, take any or all of the following actions, at the same or
different times: (i) terminate the Commitments, and thereupon the Commitments
shall terminate immediately and (ii) declare the Loans then outstanding to be
due and payable in whole (or in part, in which case any principal not so
declared to be due and payable may thereafter be declared to be due and
payable), and thereupon the principal of the Loans so declared to be due and
payable, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other
obligations of the Borrower accrued hereunder, shall become due and payable
immediately, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind,
all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower; and in case of any event with
respect to the Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of this Article, the
Commitments shall automatically terminate, the principal of the Loans then
outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other

and payable, in each case without presentment, demand, protest or other notice
of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower.

            SECTION 7.02. Inter-Tranche Agreements With Respect to Collateral.
(a) Under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and the other Security
Documents, the Tranche A Term Obligations and Revolving Obligations on the one
hand, and the Tranche B Term Obligations on the other hand, are secured by first
priority Liens and second priority Liens, respectively, on the ABL Collateral
(such term and each other capitalized term used in this Section and not defined
in Section 1.01 having the meaning specified in the Guarantee and Collateral
Agreement) and are or will be secured by second priority Liens and third
priority Liens, respectively, on the US Facilities Pledged Collateral, the US
Facilities Article 9 Collateral, the Mortgaged Properties and certain Equity
Interests in Luxembourg Finance. The Tranche B Term Lenders hereby agree, for
the benefit of the Tranche A Term Lenders and the Revolving Lenders, that
notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, or any other Security
Document, the rights of the Tranche B Term Lenders in the Collateral and any
Proceeds thereof shall be subordinate and junior to the rights of the Tranche A
Term Lenders and the Revolving Lenders in such Collateral and Proceeds. In
furtherance of the foregoing, (i) any amounts distributed in respect of the
Obligations (other than Obligations owed to the Administrative Agent or the
Collateral Agent) pursuant to Section 6.03 of the Guarantee and Collateral
Agreement or pursuant to any other Security Document shall be applied

                                       84
<PAGE>

first to pay the Tranche A Term Obligations and the Revolving Obligations,
ratably in accordance with the respective amounts thereof, until all such
Tranche A Term Obligations and Revolving Obligations shall have been paid in
full, and thereafter shall be applied to pay the Tranche B Obligations, and (ii)
with respect to the Collateral, any Proceeds thereof, the Liens thereon securing
the Obligations and all related matters, the relative rights and obligations of
the Tranche A Term Lenders and the Revolving Lenders on the one hand, and the
Tranche B Term Lenders on the other hand, shall be as set forth in Sections
11.01 and 11.02 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, which for purposes of
this Section shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this paragraph,
mutatis mutandis, it being agreed that for purposes of such Sections as so
incorporated (A) the Liens securing the Tranche A Term Obligations and the
Revolving Obligations on the one hand, and the Tranche B Term Obligations on the
other hand, are separate Liens, (B) the Liens securing the Tranche A Term
Obligations and the Revolving Obligations are Senior Liens in respect of the
Collateral and Applicable Senior Liens in respect of the Liens securing the
Tranche B Term Obligations, (C) the Tranche A Term Obligations and the Revolving
Obligations are Applicable Senior Obligations in respect of the Tranche B Term
Obligations, (D) the Liens securing the Tranche B Term Obligations are Junior
Liens in respect of the Collateral and (E) the references in Sections 11.01 and
11.02 to the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to include the Administrative
Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Tranche B Term Lender shall be free
to vote as it chooses on any matter put to a vote of the Lenders or the Tranche
B Term Lenders in accordance with Section 9.02, and no exercise by a Tranche B
Term Lender of its voting rights under Section 9.02 shall be deemed a breach of
any of the restrictions or obligations imposed on such Tranche B Term Lender by
the provisions contained or incorporated by reference in this paragraph;
provided, that each Tranche B Term Lender acknowledges and agrees that Section
9.02(b)(iv) will not require the vote of any Tranche B Term Lender to approve
any release of Collateral upon the sale thereof pursuant to an exercise of
remedies under any of the Security Documents.

            (b) The agreements contained in this Section are intended to survive
and be fully applicable following the commencement of any bankruptcy or other
insolvency proceeding by or with respect to the Borrower or any Subsidiary, and
to be taken into account and given effect in any such proceeding in a manner
consistent with the intent and agreement of the parties hereto that the Liens
securing the Tranche A Term Obligations and the Revolving Obligations on the one
hand, and the Tranche B Term Obligations on the other hand, are separate Liens
with the Liens securing the Tranche B Term Obligations being subordinate and
junior as set forth in paragraph (a) above to the Liens securing the Tranche A
Term Obligations and the Revolving Obligations.

            (c) The agreements contained in this Section are solely for the
benefit of the Tranche A Term Lenders and the Revolving Lenders and shall not
affect the priority of the Liens securing the Tranche B Obligations relative to
the Liens securing any other obligations (other than the Obligations owed to the
Tranche A Term Lenders and the Revolving Lenders) or create any rights in favor
of any other Person (other than the Tranche A Term Lenders, the Revolving
Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent).

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                                   The Agents

            Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints the Agents as its
agents and authorizes the Agents to take such actions on its behalf and to
exercise such powers as are delegated to the Agents by the terms hereof and of
the other Credit Documents, together with such actions and powers as are
reasonably incidental thereto.

            The bank or banks serving as the Agents hereunder shall have the
same rights and powers in their capacity as Lenders as any other Lender and may
exercise the same as though they were not Agents, and such bank or banks and
their Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in
any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate
thereof as if they were not Agents hereunder.

            The Agents shall not have any duties or obligations except those
expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing (a)
the Agents shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties,
regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Agents
shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any
discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly
contemplated hereby that the Agents are required to exercise in writing by the
Majority Lenders, and (c) except as expressly set forth herein, the Agents shall
not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to
disclose, any information communicated to the Agents by or relating to the
Borrower or any Subsidiary. The Agents shall not be liable for any action taken
or not taken by them with the consent or at the request of the Majority Lenders
or the Lenders, as the case may be, or in the absence of their own gross
negligence or wilful misconduct. In addition, the Agents shall be deemed not to
have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given
to the Agents by the Borrower or a Lender, and the Agents shall not be
responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement,
warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement, (ii)
the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or
in connection herewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the
covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein, (iv) the
validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement or any
other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any
condition set forth in Article III or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm
receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Agents.

            Each Tranche B Term Lender acknowledges that by virtue of the
provisions of Section 7.02 or other provisions of this Agreement the interests
of the Tranche B Term Lenders may conflict with those of the Tranche A Term
Lenders and/or the Revolving Lenders, and agrees that the Agents may perform
their duties under and exercise the authority conferred on them by the Credit
Documents without liability to the Tranche B Term Lenders notwithstanding that
as a result of such performance or exercise the Tranche B Term Lenders might be
disadvantaged relative to the Tranche A Term Lenders and/or the Revolving
Lenders.

                                       86
<PAGE>

            The Agents shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any
liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent,
statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by them to be genuine
and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Agents also may rely
upon any statement made to them orally or by telephone and believed by them to
be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying
thereon. The Agents may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the
Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by them with
reasonable care, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by
them in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

            The Agents may perform any and all their duties and exercise their
rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the
Agents. The Agents and any such sub-agent may perform any and all their duties
and exercise their rights and powers through their respective Affiliates. The
exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such
sub-agent and to the Affiliates of the Agents and any such sub-agent.

            Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as
provided below, either Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and
the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the
right to appoint a successor with the Borrower's written consent (which shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and shall not be required from the
Borrower if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing). If no successor
shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted
such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its
resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, with the
Borrower's written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed
and shall not be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing), appoint a successor Agent which shall be a bank or an Affiliate
thereof, in each case with a net worth of at least $1,000,000,000 and an office
in New York, New York. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Agent hereunder
by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the
rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring
Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After an
Agent's resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03
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 Agent.

            Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without
reliance upon the Agents or any other Lender and based on such documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and
decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it
will, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any other Lender and
based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem
appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action
under or based upon this Agreement, any related agreement or any document
furnished hereunder or thereunder.

            Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, (a) each
Lender acknowledges that the Administrative Agent is not acting as an agent of
the Borrower and

                                       87
<PAGE>

that the Borrower will not be responsible for acts or failures to act on the
part of the Administrative Agent and (b) neither the Syndication Agent nor any
of the Documentation Agents shall, in its capacity as such, have any
responsibilities under this Agreement or the other Credit Documents.

            Without prejudice to the provisions of this Article VIII, each
Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Collateral Agent (and any
successor acting as Collateral Agent) to act as the person holding the power of
attorney (in such capacity, the "fonde de pouvoir") of the Lenders as
contemplated under Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Quebec, and to enter into,
to take and to hold on their behalf, and for their benefit, any hypothec, and to
exercise such powers and duties which are conferred upon the fonde de pouvoir
under any hypothec. Moreover, without prejudice to such appointment and
authorization to act as the person holding the power of attorney as aforesaid,
each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Collateral Agent (and
any successor acting as Collateral Agent) (in such capacity, the "Custodian") to
act as agent and custodian for and on behalf of the Lenders to hold and to be
the sole registered holder of any debenture which may be issued under any
hypothec, the whole notwithstanding Section 32 of the Act Respecting the Special
Powers of Legal Persons (Quebec) or any other applicable law. In this respect,
(i) the Custodian shall keep a record indicating the names and addresses of, and
the pro rata portion of the obligations and indebtedness secured by any pledge
of any such debenture and owing to each Lender, and (ii) each Lender will be
entitled to the benefits of any charged property covered by any hypothec and
will participate in the proceeds of realization of any such charged property,
the whole in accordance with the terms hereof.

            Each of the fonde de pouvoir and the Custodian shall (a) have the
sole and exclusive right and authority to exercise, except as may be otherwise
specifically restricted by the terms hereof, all rights and remedies given to
fonde de pouvoir and the Custodian (as applicable) with respect to the charged
property under any hypothec, any debenture or pledge thereof relating to any
hypothec, applicable laws or otherwise, (b) benefit from and be subject to all
provisions hereof with respect to the Collateral Agent mutatis mutandis,
including, without limitation, all such provisions with respect to the liability
or responsibility to and indemnification by the Lenders, and (c) be entitled to
delegate from time to time any of its powers or duties under any hypothec, any
debenture or pledge thereof relating to any hypothec, applicable laws or
otherwise and on such terms and conditions as it may determine from time to
time. Any person who becomes a Lender shall be deemed to have consented to and
confirmed: (y) the fonde de pouvoir as the person holding the power of attorney
as aforesaid and to have ratified, as of the date it becomes a Lender, all
actions taken by the fonde de pouvoir in such capacity, (z) the Custodian as the
agent and custodian as aforesaid and to have ratified, as of the date it becomes
a Lender, all actions taken by the Custodian in such capacity.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                                  Miscellaneous

            SECTION 9.01. Notices. (a) Except in the case of notices and other
communications expressly permitted to be given by telephone (and subject to
paragraph (b) below), all notices and other communications provided for herein
shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or overnight courier service,
mailed by certified or registered mail or sent by telecopy or e-mail, as
follows:

            (i) if to the Borrower, to it at 1144 East Market Street, Akron,
      Ohio, 44316-0001, Attention of the Treasurer (Telecopy No. (330) 796-6502
      or (330) 796-8836);

            (ii) if to the Administrative Agent, to JPMorgan Chase Bank, Loan &
      Agency Services Group, 1111 Fannin, 10th Floor, Houston, Texas 77002,
      Attention of Debbie Meche and Cliff Trapani (Telecopy No. (713) 750-2938),
      with a copy to JPMorgan Chase Bank, 270 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10017,
      Attention of Robert Kellas (Telecopy No. (212) 270-3089);

            (iii) if to a Lender, to it at its address (or telecopy number or
      e-mail address) set forth in Schedule 2.01 or its Administrative
      Questionnaire; and

            (iv) if to any Issuing Bank, to it at the address most recently
      specified by it in a notice delivered to the Administrative Agent and the
      Borrower.

            (b) Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be
delivered or furnished by electronic communications pursuant to procedures
approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not
apply to notices pursuant to Article II unless otherwise agreed by the
Administrative Agent and the applicable Lender. The Administrative Agent or the
Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other
communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to
procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be
limited to particular notices or communications.

            (c) Any party hereto may change its address, telecopy number or
e-mail address for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the
other parties hereto. All notices and other communications given to any party
hereto in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to
have been given on the date of receipt.

            SECTION 9.02. Waivers; Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by any of
the Agents, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power
hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of
steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of
the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are
not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would

                                       89
<PAGE>

otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any
departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the
same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) below, and then such waiver or consent
shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which
given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or
issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any
Default, regardless of whether any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may
have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

            (b) No Credit Document or any provision thereof may be waived,
amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing
entered into by the Credit Parties party thereto and the Administrative Agent or
Collateral Agent, as the case may be, with the consent of the Majority Lenders;
provided, that no such agreement shall (i) increase or extend the expiration
date of the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender,
(ii) reduce or forgive all or part of the principal amount of any Loan or LC
Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any commitment
fee payable hereunder, without the prior written consent of each Lender affected
thereby, (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of
any Loan or LC Disbursement or date for the payment of any interest on any Loan
or any commitment fee, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such
payment, without the prior written consent of each Lender adversely affected
thereby, (iv) release all or substantially all the Subsidiary Guarantors from
their Guarantees under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, or release all or
substantially all the Collateral from the Liens of the Security Documents,
without the written consent of each Lender, (v) change any provision of the
Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or any other Security Document to alter the
amount or allocation of any payment to be made to the Secured Parties, or effect
any change to Article XI of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, without the
consent of each adversely affected Lender, (vi) change Section 2.16 in a manner
that would alter the pro rata sharing of any payment without the written consent
of each Lender adversely affected thereby, (vii) change any of the provisions of
this Section or Section 9.02A or the definition of "Majority Lenders" or
"Majority Borrowing Base Lenders" or any other provision hereof specifying the
number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights
hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the
written consent of each Lender, (viii) change any provision of any Credit
Document in a manner that by its terms adversely affects the rights in respect
of payments due to Lenders holding Loans of any Class differently from those
holding Loans of the other Class, without the written consent of Lenders holding
a majority in interest of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of the
affected Class or (ix) amend, modify or otherwise alter the definition of
"Availability Block" or the eligibility standards or advance rates used in
determining the Borrowing Base in a manner which would increase the amount of
the Borrowing Base Availability, without the prior written consent of each
Lender (provided that if any amendment, modification or alteration is made after
the date hereof to any eligibility standard by the Administrative Agent or the
Majority Lenders as provided for herein in a manner which would decrease the
amount of the Borrowing Base Availability, such eligibility standard may be
subsequently amended, modified or altered in a manner which would increase the
amount of the Borrowing Base Availability with the prior written consent of
Lenders holding more than 85% in interest of the aggregate amount of

                                       90
<PAGE>

the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments so long as such eligibility
standard, as so amended, modified or altered, would not have increased the
Borrowing Base Availability if it had been applied on the date hereof);
provided, further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect
the rights or duties of any of the Agents or Issuing Banks under any Credit
Document without the prior written consent of such Agent or Issuing Bank, as the
case may be; provided further that any amendment, modification or waiver of this
Agreement that by its terms affects the rights or duties under this Agreement of
the Revolving Lenders (but not the Term Lenders) or the Term Lenders (but not
the Revolving Lenders) may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing
entered into by the Borrower and the requisite percentage in interest of the
affected Class of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto under this
Section if such Class of Lenders were the only Class of Lenders hereunder at
such time.

            SECTION 9.02A. Layering of Rights in Collateral; Additional
Commitments; Covenants and Defaults. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision
contained herein, no amendment or modification of this Agreement shall (i)
provide for the making of additional Tranche B Term Loans after the Restatement
Effective Date or (ii) provide for the making of additional Loans or other
extensions of credit under this Agreement with rights in the Collateral
subordinate to those of the Tranche A Term Lenders or the Revolving Lenders but
senior to the rights of the Tranche B Term Lenders, in each case without the
written consent of Lenders holding a majority in interest of the outstanding
Tranche B Term Loans.

            (b) Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, no
amendment or modification of this Agreement shall provide for the making of
additional loans (other than pursuant to the Revolving Commitments) or the
provision of additional commitments after the Restatement Effective Date without
the written consent of Lenders having aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures,
Tranche A Term Loans and unused Revolving Commitments representing at least
66-2/3% of the sum of the total Revolving Credit Exposures, Tranche A Term Loans
and unused Revolving Commitments at such time.

            (c) Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, no waiver,
amendment or other modification of the provisions of Article V, Article VI or
Article VII of this Agreement shall be effective without the written consent of
the Majority Borrowing Base Lenders.

            SECTION 9.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) The Borrower
shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agents, the
Arrangers and their Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and
disbursements of Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP, counsel for the Agents and the

Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued

Issuing Bank and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing
Persons (each such Person being called an "Indemnitee") against, and hold each
Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and

or any of the Subsidiaries, or (iv) any claim, litigation, investigation or
proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or
any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto;
provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to
the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses
shall have resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such
Indemnitee or the breach by such Indemnitee of obligations set forth herein or
in any other Credit Document.

            (c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required
to be paid by it to any Agent, any Arranger or any Issuing Bank under paragraph
(a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to such Agent,
Arranger or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such Lender's percentage

payment is sought based on the outstanding Loans and LC Exposures and unused
Commitments of such Lender and the other Lenders (or, if the Commitments shall
have terminated and there shall be no

outstanding Loans or LC Exposures, based on the Loans and LC Exposures and
unused Commitments most recently in effect)) of such unpaid amount; provided
that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or
related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against such
Agent, Arranger or Issuing Bank in its capacity as such.

            SECTION 9.04. Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this
Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto,
the Indemnitees and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby
(including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit),
except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its
rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender
(and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent
shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its
rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. Nothing
in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any
Person (other than the parties hereto, Indemnitees, their respective successors
and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that
issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph
(c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the
Related Parties of each of the Agents, the Arrangers, the Issuing Banks and the
Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of
this Agreement.

            (b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii)
below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its
rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its
Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it); with the prior written
consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of:

            (A) the Borrower; provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be
      required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an
      Approved Fund (as defined below), a Federal Reserve Bank or, if an Event
      of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee; provided
      further that the consent of the Borrower and the consent of the
      Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment by any Revolving
      Lender to any Person (other than a Revolving Lender);

            (B) the Administrative Agent; provided that no consent of the
      Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment to an assignee
      that is a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, a Federal Reserve Bank or an
      Approved Fund; and

            (C) in the case of any assignment of a Revolving Commitment or any
      interests in a Letter of Credit or LC Disbursement, each Principal Issuing
      Bank; provided that no consent of any Principal Issuing Bank shall be
      required for an assignment to an assignee that is a Federal Reserve Bank.

            (ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional
      conditions:

                                       93
<PAGE>

            (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate
      of a Lender, the amount of the Commitment of the assigning Lender subject
      to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and
      Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the
      Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000 or, if smaller,
      the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender's Commitment unless
      each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall otherwise consent,
      provided (i) that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an
      Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) in the event of
      concurrent assignments to two or more assignees that are Affiliates of one
      another, or to two or more Approved Funds managed by the same investment
      advisor or by affiliated investment advisors, all such concurrent
      assignments shall be aggregated in determining compliance with this
      subsection;

            (B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a
      proportionate part of all the assigning Lender's rights and obligations
      under this Agreement; provided that this clause shall not be construed to
      prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning
      Lender's rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or
      Loans;

            (C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the
      Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a
      processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that in the event of
      concurrent assignments to two or more assignees that are Affiliates of one
      another, or to two or more Approved Funds managed by the same investment
      advisor or by affiliated investment advisors, only one such fee shall be
      payable; and

            (D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the
      Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

            (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to
      paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date
      specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall
      be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such
      Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender
      under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the
      extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be
      released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an
      Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender's rights
      and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a
      party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections
      2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of
      rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this
      Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by
      such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in
      accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section. Each assignment hereunder
      shall be deemed to be an assignment of the related rights under the
      Guarantee and Collateral Agreement.

                                       94
<PAGE>

            (iv) The Administrative Agent shall maintain at one of its offices a
      copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for
      the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the
      Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements
      owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the
      "Register"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the
      Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders may
      treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the
      terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement,
      notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available
      for inspection by the Borrower and any Issuing Bank or Lender, at any
      reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

            (v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption
      executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee's completed
      Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a
      Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in
      paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment
      required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall
      accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained
      therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of
      this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in
      this paragraph.

            (vi) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Assumption, the
      assigning Lender thereunder and the assignee thereunder shall be deemed to
      confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as
      follows: (i) such assigning Lender warrants that it is the legal and
      beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of
      any adverse claim and that its Commitment and the outstanding balances of
      its Loans, in each case without giving effect to assignments thereof that
      have not become effective, are as set forth in such Assignment and
      Assumption; (ii) except as set forth in clause (i) above, such assigning
      Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility
      with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or
      in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document or any
      other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto, or the
      execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or
      value of any of the foregoing, or the financial condition of the Credit
      Parties or the performance or observance by the Credit Parties of any of
      their obligations under this Agreement or under any other Credit Document
      or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto;
      (iii) each of the assignee and the assignor represents and warrants that
      it is legally authorized to enter into such Assignment and Assumption;
      (iv) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement,
      together with copies of any amendments or consents entered into prior to
      the date of such Assignment and Assumption and copies of the most recent
      financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.01 and such other
      documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own
      credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Assumption;
      (v) such assignee will independently and without reliance upon the

                                       95
<PAGE>

      Agents, such assigning Lender 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; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the
      Agents to take such action as agents on its behalf and to exercise such
      powers under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as are
      delegated to them by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such
      powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee
      agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all the
      obligations that by the terms of this Agreement are required to be
      performed by it as a Lender.

            (c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank, sell participations to one or more
banks or other entities (each a "Participant") in all or a portion of such
Lender's rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a
portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such
Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such
Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the
performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent,
the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and
directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and
obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which
a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain
the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment,
modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such
agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the
consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that
affects such Participant and that, under Section 9.02, would require the consent
of each affected Lender. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the
Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of
Sections 2.13, 2.14 and 2.15 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had
acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section.
To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the
benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant
agrees to be subject to Section 2.16(d) as though it were a Lender.

            (ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater
      payment under Section 2.13 or 2.15 than the applicable Lender would have
      been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such
      Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is
      made with the Borrower's prior written consent, which consent shall
      specifically refer to this exception. A Participant that would be a
      Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits
      of Section 2.15 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold
      to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the
      Borrower, to comply with Section 2.15(e) as though it were a Lender.

            (d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest
in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations
of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a
Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or
assignment of a security interest;

                                       96
<PAGE>

provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release
a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or
assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

            SECTION 9.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations
and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the certificates or other
instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be
considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall
survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans
and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by
any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that any Agent, any
Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or
incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended
hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal
of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable
under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is
outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The
provisions of Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive
and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or
termination of the Commitments or the Letters of Credit or the termination of
this Agreement or any provision hereof.

            SECTION 9.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This
Agreement may be executed by the execution of counterparts of the First
Amendment (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts of the
First Amendment), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which
when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and any
separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative
Agent or the Arrangers constitute the entire contract among the parties relating
to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and
understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This
Agreement shall become effective as provided in the First Amendment. Delivery of
an executed counterpart of a signature page of the First Amendment by telecopy
shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this
Agreement.

            SECTION 9.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to
be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of
the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in
a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other
jurisdiction. No failure to obtain any approval required for the effectiveness
of any provision of this Agreement shall affect the validity or enforceability
of any other provision of this Agreement.

            SECTION 9.08. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing and the Loans shall have become due and payable
pursuant to Article VII, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby
authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or
demand, provisional or final) at any time held and

                                       97
<PAGE>

other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the
credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the obligations of
the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender,
irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this
Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each
Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies
(including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

            SECTION 9.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of
Process. (a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed
by the law of the State of New York.

            (b) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the
Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the
United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any
appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or
relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment,
and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees
that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and
determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such
Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any
such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other
jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.
Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any party hereto may
otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement in
the courts of any jurisdiction.

            (c) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives,
to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which
it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or
proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to
in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably
waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient
forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

            (d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of
process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in this
Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process
in any other manner permitted by law.

            SECTION 9.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES,
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A
TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR
RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER
BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES
THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED,
EXPRESSLY OR

                                       98
<PAGE>

OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO
ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES
HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS,
THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

            SECTION 9.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table

nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower that is not known by
the recipient to be bound by a confidentiality agreement or other obligation of

nondisclosure is necessary in order to comply with applicable securities laws.

            SECTION 9.13. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan,

rate (the "Maximum Rate") which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received
or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law,
the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with
all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate
and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable
in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of

Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above
the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest
