     This Voting Agreement ("Agreement") is made and entered into as of

("Company"), and the undersigned stockholder ("Stockholder") of Vishay
Intertechnology, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Parent").

                                  Recitals

     A. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Parent, Company,
and Vishay Acquisition Corp., Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly
owned subsidiary of Parent ("Merger Sub"), have entered into an Agreement
and Plan of Merger of even date herewith (the "Merger Agreement") which
provides for the merger (the "Merger") of Merger Sub with and into Company.
Pursuant to the Merger, shares of Common Stock of Company will be converted
into 0.563 shares of Common Stock of Parent ("Parent Stock") in the manner
set forth in the Merger Agreement.

     B. The Stockholder is the record holder and/or beneficial owner (as
defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the "Exchange Act")) of such number of shares of the outstanding Common
Stock and Class B Common Stock of Parent as is indicated on the final page
of this Agreement (collectively, the "Shares").

     C. As a material inducement to enter into the Merger Agreement,
Company desires the Stockholder to agree, and the Stockholder is willing to
agree, not to transfer or otherwise dispose of any of the Shares, or any
other shares of capital stock of Parent acquired hereafter and prior to the
Expiration Date (as defined in Section 1.1 below), except as otherwise
permitted hereby, and to vote the Shares and any other such shares of
capital stock of Parent in favor of the Parent Stockholders Meetings
Proposals (as defined in the Merger Agreement.)

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants, promises and
representations set forth herein, the parties agree as follows:

     1. Agreement to Retain Shares.
        --------------------------

          1.1 Transfer and Encumbrance. A Stockholder shall be deemed to
have effected a "Transfer" of a security if he or she directly or
indirectly: (i) sells, makes any short sales of, lends, hypothecates,
pledges, encumbers, enters into any type of equity swap or hedging of,
grants an option with respect to, transfers or disposes of such security or
any interest in such security; or (ii) enters into an agreement or
commitment providing for the sale of, making any short sale of, lending of,
pledge of, encumbrance of, equity swap or hedging of, grant of an option
with respect to, transfer of or disposition of such security or any
interest therein.

          Stockholder agrees not to Transfer (except as may be specifically
required by court order or operation of law) the Shares or any New Shares
(as defined in Section 1.2 below), or to make any offer or agreement
relating thereto, at any time prior to the Expiration Date unless each
party to which such Shares or New Shares or any interest in any of such
Shares or New Shares is or may be transferred shall have (i) executed a
counterpart of this Voting Agreement and (ii) agreed to hold such Shares or
New Shares or interest in such Shares or New Shares subject to all of the
terms and provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that in no event
will Stockholder Transfer the Shares or New Shares or make any offer or
agreement relating thereto if such Transfer would result in the conversion
of any Shares or New Shares from Class B Common Stock into Common Stock or
otherwise cause a diminution of the voting power represented by the shares
subject to this Agreement and the voting agreement of the contemplated
transferee. As used herein, the term "Expiration Date" shall mean the
earlier to occur of (i) such date and time as the Merger shall become
effective in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Merger
Agreement and (ii) such date and time as the Merger Agreement shall be
terminated in accordance with its terms.

          1.2 Additional Purchases. Stockholder agrees that any shares of
capital stock of Parent that Stockholder purchases or with respect to which
Stockholder otherwise acquires beneficial ownership (as such term is
defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) after the execution of this
Agreement and prior to the Expiration Date ("New Shares") shall be subject
to the terms and conditions of this Agreement to the same extent as if they
constituted Shares.

     2. Agreement to Vote Shares. At every meeting of the stockholders of
Parent called with respect to, and at every adjournment thereof, and on
every action or approval by written consent of the stockholders of Parent
with respect to, approval of the Parent Stockholders Meeting Proposals,
Stockholder shall vote the Shares and any New Shares in favor of the Parent
Stockholders Meeting Proposals. Stockholder agrees not to take any actions
contrary to Stockholder's obligations under this Agreement.

     3. Proxy. Stockholder hereby revokes all proxies with respect to the
Shares executed or granted on or prior to the date hereof and agrees from
and after the date of this Agreement not to grant any proxy, become party
to any voting trust or other agreement that grants any other person or
entity the right, directly or indirectly to vote the Shares or the New
Shares, in each case with respect to (i) the Parent Stockholder Meeting
Proposals, other than a proxy granted for the sole purpose of voting in
favor of such proposals or (ii) any other matter in respect of which any
action (x) which may be taken pursuant to such proxy, or (y) is required to
be taken pursuant to such voting trust or other agreement, is contrary to
the Stockholder's other obligations under this Agreement.

     4. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Stockholder.
Stockholder hereby represents, warrants and covenants to Company that
Stockholder (i) is the beneficial owner of the Shares, which at the date
hereof and at all times up until the Expiration Date will be free and clear
of any liens, claims, options, charges or other encumbrances; (ii) does not
beneficially own any shares of capital stock of Parent other than the
Shares (excluding shares as to which Stockholder currently disclaims
beneficial ownership in accordance with applicable law); and (iii) has full
power and authority to make, enter into and carry out the terms of this
Agreement.

     5. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate and shall have no
further force or effect as of the Expiration Date.

     6. Miscellaneous.

shall not be construed against the Lenders or the Agent merely because of the
Agent's or Lenders' involvement in their preparation.

         1.03 Accounting Principles. (a) Unless the context otherwise clearly
requires, all accounting terms not expressly defined herein shall be construed,
and all financial computations required under this Agreement shall be made, in
accordance with GAAP, consistently applied.

               (b) References herein to "fiscal year" and "fiscal quarter" refer
to such fiscal periods of the Company.

               (c) In the event that any changes in GAAP occur after the date of
this Agreement and such changes result in a material variation in the method of
calculation of financial covenants or other terms of this Agreement or in what
Subsidiaries are consolidated for financial reporting purposes, then the
Company, the Agent and the Lenders agree to amend such provisions of this
Agreement so as to equitably reflect such changes so that the criteria for
evaluating the Company's financial condition will be the same after such changes
as if such changes had not occurred.

         1.04 Currency Equivalents Generally. For all purposes of this Agreement
(but not for purposes of the preparation of any financial statements, any
schedules pertaining to Foreign Subsidiaries or any compliance certificates
delivered pursuant hereto), the equivalent in any Offshore Currency or other
currency of an amount in Dollars, and the equivalent in Dollars of an amount in
any Offshore Currency or other currency, shall be determined at the Spot Rate.

                                   ARTICLE II

                                   THE CREDITS

         2.01 Amounts and Terms of Commitments. (a) Term Loan A. The Company and
the Lenders acknowledge the making of a single term loan in the aggregate
principal amount of $60,000,000 ("Term Loan A") on the Restatement Date in
accordance with the terms of the Prior Credit Agreement. Prior to the Second
Restatement Date, the Company has repaid or prepaid $6,000,000 aggregate
principal amount of Term Loan A and, accordingly, the Company and the Lenders
acknowledge and agree that an aggregate principal amount of $54,000,000 relating
to Term Loan A shall continue to be outstanding as of the Second Restatement
Date pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents (and having the Interest Periods applicable thereto as determined
under the Prior Credit Agreement). Amounts borrowed as a Term Loan A which are
repaid or prepaid by the Company may not be reborrowed.

               (b) Term Loan B. Each Lender holding a Term Loan B Commitment
severally agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, to make a single
loan in Dollars to the Company (each such loan, a "Term Loan B") on the Second
Restatement Date (which loan may be made in multiple drawings on such Second
Restatement Date, as directed by the Company) in an amount not to exceed such
Lender's Term Loan B Commitment as set forth on Schedule 2.01. Amounts borrowed
as a Term Loan B which are repaid or prepaid by the Company may not be
reborrowed.

               (c) The Revolving Credit. Each Revolving Lender severally agrees,
on the terms and conditions set forth herein, to make loans to the Borrowers
(each such loan, a "Revolving Loan") from time to time on any Business Day
during the period from the Second Restatement Date to the Revolving Termination
Date, in Dollars and/or one or more Offshore Currencies to the Company and in
Offshore Currencies only to any Subsidiary Borrower, in an aggregate amount the
Dollar Equivalent of which shall not exceed at any time outstanding the amount
set forth on Schedule 2.01 (such amount, as the same may be reduced or increased
under Section 2.09 or as a result of one or more assignments under Section
11.08, the Revolving Lender's "Revolving Loan Commitment"); provided, however,
that, after giving effect to any Borrowing of Revolving Loans, the Dollar
Equivalent of the Effective Amount of all Revolving

                                       33
<PAGE>

Loans and Swing Line Loans outstanding at such time plus the Dollar Equivalent
of the Effective Amount of all L/C Obligations outstanding at such time, plus
the aggregate amount of all Fronted Offshore Currency Commitments outstanding at
such time, shall not at any time exceed the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment;
provided further, that the Dollar Equivalent of the Effective Amount of the
outstanding Revolving Loans of any Revolving Lender plus the participation of
such Revolving Lender in the Dollar Equivalent of the Effective Amount of all
L/C Obligations and such Revolving Lender's Pro Rata Revolving Share of any
outstanding Swing Line Loans and of the aggregate amount of all Fronted Offshore
Currency Commitments shall not at any time exceed such Revolving Lender's
Revolving Loan Commitment; and provided further, that the sum of the Dollar
Equivalent of the Effective Amount of the outstanding Revolving Loans
denominated in an Offshore Currency, plus the aggregate amount of all Fronted
Offshore Currency Commitments shall not exceed the Offshore Currency Sublimit.
Within the limits of each Revolving Lender's Commitment, and subject to the
other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrowers may borrow under this
subsection 2.01(c), prepay under Section 2.10 and reborrow under this subsection
2.01(c).

         2.02 Loan Accounts. (a) The Loans made by each Lender and the Letters
of Credit Issued by the Issuer shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or
records maintained by such Lender or Issuer, as the case may be, in the ordinary
course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Agent, the Issuer
and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the
Loans made by the Lenders to the Borrowers and the Letters of Credit Issued for
the account of the Company, and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure
so to record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise
affect the obligation of the Borrowers hereunder to pay any amount owing with
respect to the Loans or any Letter of Credit.

               (b) Each Borrower shall issue to each Lender notes ("Notes") to
evidence such Lender's Loans (which shall be substantially in the form of
Exhibit E with respect to Revolving Loans, Exhibit F with respect to Term Loans
and Exhibit G with respect to Swing Line Loans and with respect to Fronted
Offshore Currency Loans, shall be in such form as may be required by the
applicable Offshore Currency Addendum). Each Lender may, instead of or in
addition to maintaining a loan account, endorse on the schedule annexed to its
Note(s) the date, amount and maturity of each Loan made by it and the amount of
each payment of principal made by a Borrower with respect thereto. Each such
Lender is irrevocably authorized by the Borrowers to endorse its Note(s) and
each Lender's record shall be conclusive absent manifest error; provided,
however, that the failure of a Lender to make, or an error in making, a notation
thereon with respect to any Loan shall not limit or otherwise affect the
obligations of any Borrower hereunder or under any such Note to such Lender.

         2.03 Procedure for Borrowing. (a) Each Borrowing shall be made upon the
applicable Borrower's irrevocable notice delivered to the Agent in the form of a
Notice of Borrowing (which notice must be received by the Agent prior to noon
(local time) (i) two Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the
case of Offshore Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, (ii) four Business Days
prior to the requested Borrowing Date in the case of Offshore Rate Loans
denominated in Offshore Currencies; and (iii) on the requested Borrowing Date,
in the case of Base Rate Loans), specifying:

                                       34
<PAGE>

                    (A) the amount of the Borrowing, which shall be in an
     aggregate minimum Dollar Equivalent amount of $3,000,000 or any Dollar
     Equivalent multiple of $250,000 in excess thereof;

                    (B) the requested Borrowing Date, which shall be a Business
     Day;

                    (C) the Type of Loans comprising the Borrowing;

                    (D) with respect to Offshore Rate Loans, the duration of the
     Interest Period applicable to such Loans included in such notice. If the
     Notice of Borrowing fails to specify the duration of the Interest Period
     for any Borrowing comprised of Offshore Rate Loans, such Interest Period
     shall be three months;

                    (E) with respect to Offshore Rate Loans, the Applicable
     Currency for the Borrowing; and

                    (F) the identity of the Borrower requesting the Borrowing.

               (b) The Agent will promptly notify each applicable Lender of its
receipt of any Notice of Borrowing and, in respect of Borrowings of Revolving
Loans, of (i) the amount of such Revolving Lender's Pro Rata Revolving Share of
that Borrowing and (ii) if such Borrowing is in an Offshore Currency, the
aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of the Borrowing and the applicable Spot Rate
used by the Agent to determine the Dollar Equivalent amount. The Agent shall
also give the Company prompt notice of the matters referred to in subpart (ii)
of the preceding sentence.

               (c) Each Lender will make the amount of its Pro Rata Share of
each Borrowing available to the Agent for the account of the applicable Borrower
at the Agent's applicable Payment Office by 1:00 p.m. (local time) on the
Borrowing Date requested by the Company in funds immediately available to the
Agent. The proceeds of all such Loans will then be made available to the
applicable Borrower by the Agent at such office by crediting the account of such
Borrower on the books of BofA with the aggregate of the amounts made available
to the Agent by the Lenders and in like funds as received by the Agent.

               (d) After giving effect to any Borrowing, unless the Agent shall
otherwise consent, there may not be more than 12 different Interest Periods in
effect.

               (e) Each Borrower hereby authorizes the Lenders and the Agent to
accept Notices of Borrowing based on telephonic notices made by any person or
persons the Agent or any Lender in good faith believes to be acting on behalf of
such Borrower. Each Borrower agrees to deliver promptly to the Agent a written
confirmation of each telephonic notice, signed by a Responsible Officer or an
authorized designee. If the written confirmation differs in any material respect
from the action taken by the Agent and the Lenders, the records of the Agent and
the Lenders shall govern absent manifest error.

         2.04 Conversion and Continuation Elections. (a) Each Borrower may, with
respect to Loans other than Fronted Offshore Currency Loans, upon irrevocable
notice to the Agent in accordance with subsection 2.04(b):

                    (i) elect, as of any Business Day, in the case of Base Rate
     Loans, or as of the last day of the applicable Interest Period, in the case
     of Offshore Rate Loans made to the Company, to convert any such Loans (or
     any part thereof in a Dollar Equivalent amount not less than $3,000,000 or
     that is in an integral multiple of the Dollar Equivalent of $250,000 in
     excess thereof) into Base Rate Loans; or

                    (ii) elect as of the last day of the applicable Interest
     Period, to continue any Revolving Loans or Term Loans having Interest
     Periods expiring on such day (or any part thereof in an amount not less
     than the Dollar Equivalent of $3,000,000, or that is in an integral
     multiple of the Dollar Equivalent of $250,000 in excess thereof);

provided, that if at any time the aggregate amount of Offshore Rate Loans in
respect of any Borrowing by all Borrowers is reduced, by payment, prepayment, or
conversion of part thereof to be less than the Dollar Equivalent of $3,000,000,
such Offshore Rate Loans shall be assigned to and assumed by the Company, if
borrowed by a Borrower other than the Company, and then may, upon written notice
by the Company delivered to the Agent and the Swing Line Lender concurrent with
its notice of prepayment and compliance with Section 2.06, be converted into
Swing Line Loans, or, in the absence of such a conversion, shall automatically
convert into Base Rate Loans, and on and after such date the right of the
Company to continue such Loans as, and convert such Loans into, Offshore Rate
Loans shall terminate.

               (b) Each Borrower shall deliver a Notice of
Conversion/Continuation to be received by the Agent not later than 10:30 a.m.
(local time) at least (i) two Business Days in advance of the
Conversion/Continuation Date, if the Loans are to be converted into or continued
as Offshore Rate Loans denominated in Dollars; (ii) four Business Days in
advance of the Conversion/Continuation Date, if the Loans are to be converted
into or continued as Offshore Rate Loans denominated in an Offshore Currency;
and (iii) on the Conversion/Continuation Date, if the Loans are to be converted
into Base Rate Loans, specifying:

                    (A) the proposed Conversion/Continuation Date;

                    (B) the aggregate amount of Loans to be converted or
     continued;

                    (C) the Type of Loans resulting from the proposed conversion
     or continuation;

                    (D) other than in the case of conversions into Base Rate
     Loans, the duration of the requested Interest Period; and

                    (E) if converted into Offshore Rate Loans denominated in an
     Offshore Currency, the Applicable Currency in which such converted Loans
     are to be denominated.

                                       36
<PAGE>

               (c) If upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to
Offshore Rate Loans, a Borrower has failed to select timely a new Interest
Period to be applicable to such Offshore Rate Loans, as the case may be, then
(i) if no Default or Event of Default then exists, such Borrower shall be deemed
to have elected to continue such Loans as Offshore Rate Loans to itself
denominated in the same Offshore Currency and having a one-month Interest Period
effective as of the expiration date of such expiring Interest Period and (ii) if
any Default or Event of Default then exists, such Borrower shall be deemed to
have elected to convert such Offshore Rate Loans into Base Rate Loans made to
the Company and denominated in Dollars effective as of the expiration date of
such expiring Interest Period.

               (d) The Agent will promptly notify each applicable Lender of its
receipt of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, or, if no timely notice is
provided by a Borrower, the Agent will promptly notify each applicable Lender of
the details of any automatic conversion. All conversions and continuations shall
be made ratably according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the
Loans with respect to which the notice was given held by each Lender.

               (e) Unless the Required Lenders otherwise consent, during the
existence of a Default or Event of Default, no Borrower may elect to have a Loan
converted into or continued as an Offshore Rate Loan.

               (f) After giving effect to any conversion or continuation of
Loans, unless the Agent shall otherwise consent, there may not be more than 12
different Interest Periods in effect.

               (g) Each Borrower hereby authorizes the Lenders and the Agent to
accept Notices of Conversion/Continuation based on telephonic notices made by
any person or persons the Agent or any Lender in good faith believes to be
acting on behalf of such Borrower. Each Borrower agrees to deliver promptly to
the Agent a written confirmation of each telephonic notice, signed by a
Responsible Officer or an authorized designee. If the written confirmation
differs in any material respect from the action taken by the Agent and the
Lenders, the records of the Agent and the Lenders shall govern absent manifest
error.

         2.05 The Swing Line Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof,
the Swing Line Lender agrees to make Swing Line Loans denominated in Dollars to
the Company from time to time prior to the Revolving Termination Date in an
aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed
$20,000,000; provided, that after giving effect to any such Swing Line Loan, the
Dollar Equivalent of the Effective Amount of all Revolving Loans, Swing Line
Loans, Fronted Offshore Currency Commitments and L/C Obligations at such time
would not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment at such time. Prior to
the Revolving Termination Date, the Company may use the Swing Line Commitment by
borrowing, prepaying the Swing Line Loans in whole or in part, and reborrowing,
all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. All Swing Line Loans
shall bear interest at the Swing Line Rate and shall not be entitled to be
converted into Loans that bear interest at any other rate.

         2.06 Procedure for Swing Line Loans. (a) The Company may borrow under
the Swing Line Commitment on any Business Day until the Revolving Termination
Date; provided, that the Company shall give the Swing Line Lender irrevocable
written notice signed by a Responsible Officer or an authorized designee (which
notice must be received by the Swing Line

                                       37
<PAGE>

Lender prior to 11:00 a.m. (local time)) with a copy to the Agent specifying the
amount of the requested Swing Line Loan, which shall be in a minimum amount of
$100,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. The proceeds of the
Swing Line Loan will be made available by the Swing Line Lender to the Company
in immediately available funds at the office of the Swing Line Lender by 1:00
p.m. (local time) on the date of such notice. The Company may at any time and
from time to time, prepay the Swing Line Loans, in whole or in part, without
premium or penalty, by notifying the Swing Line Lender prior to 11:00 a.m.
(local time) on any Business Day of the date and amount of prepayment with a
copy to the Agent. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such
notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Partial
prepayments shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $100,000 or a whole
multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof.

               (b) If any Swing Line Loan shall remain outstanding at 11:00 a.m.
(local time) on the fifth Business Day following the date of such Swing Line
Loan and if by such time on such fifth Business Day the Agent shall have
received neither (i) a Notice of Borrowing delivered by the Company pursuant to
Section 2.03 requesting that Revolving Loans be made pursuant to subsection
2.01(b) on the immediately succeeding Business Day in an amount at least equal
to the principal amount of such Swing Line Loan for the purpose of refunding
such Swing Line Loan nor (ii) any other notice satisfactory to the Agent
indicating the Company's intent to repay such Swing Line Loan on or before the
immediately succeeding Business Day with funds obtained from other sources or to
extend such Swing Line Loan, then on such Business Day the Swing Line Lender
shall (and on any Business Day the Swing Line Lender in its sole discretion
may), on behalf of the Company (which hereby irrevocably directs the Swing Line
Lender to act on its behalf) request the Agent to notify each Revolving Lender
to make a Base Rate Loan in an amount equal to such Revolving Lender's Pro Rata
Revolving Share of (A) in the case of such a request which is required to be
made, the amount of the relevant Swing Line Loan and (B) in the case of such a
discretionary request, the aggregate principal amount of the Swing Line Loans
outstanding on the date such notice is given; provided, that absent notice by
the Company to the contrary by such time on such fifth Business Day, the Company
shall be deemed to have requested, at the end of such five Business Day period,
that each outstanding Swing Line Loan be extended for an additional period of
five Business Days, so long as the conditions specified in Section 5.02 would be
satisfied at the beginning of each such additional period, treating each such
extension as if it were the making of a new Loan. Unless any of the events
described in subsection 9.01(f) or (g) shall have occurred with respect to the
Company (in which event the procedures of paragraph (d) of this Section 2.06
shall apply) each Revolving Lender shall make the proceeds of its Revolving Loan
available to the Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Agent's
Payment Office in funds immediately available prior to 1:00 p.m. (local time) on
the Business Day next succeeding the date such notice is given. The proceeds of
such Revolving Loans shall be immediately applied to repay the outstanding Swing
Line Loans. Effective on the day such Revolving Loans are made, the portion of
the Swing Line Loans so paid shall no longer be outstanding as Swing Line Loans
and shall no longer be due under the Swing Line Note. The Company shall pay to
the Swing Line Lender, promptly following the Swing Line Lender's demand, the
amount of its outstanding Swing Line Loans to the extent amounts received from
the Revolving Lenders are not sufficient to repay in full such outstanding Swing
Line Loans.

                                       38
<PAGE>

               (c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Swing
Line Lender (i) shall not be obligated to make any Swing Line Loan if the
conditions set forth in Article V have not been satisfied and (ii) shall not
make any requested Swing Line Loan if, prior to 11:00 a.m. (local time) on the
date of such requested Swing Line Loan, it has received a written notice from
the Agent or any Revolving Lender directing it not to make further Swing Line
Loans because one or more of the conditions specified in Article V are not then
satisfied.

               (d) If prior to the making of a Revolving Loan required to be
made by subsection 2.06(b) an Event of Default described in subsection 9.01(f)
or 9.01(g) shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Company,
each Revolving Lender will, on the date such Revolving Loan was to have been
made pursuant to the notice described in subsection 2.06(b), purchase an
undivided participating interest in the outstanding Swing Line Loans in an
amount equal to its Pro Rata Revolving Share of the aggregate principal amount
of Swing Line Loans then outstanding. Each Revolving Lender will immediately
transfer to the Agent for the benefit of the Swing Line Lender, in immediately
available funds, the amount of its participation.

               (e) Whenever, at any time after a Revolving Lender has purchased
a participating interest in a Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender receives
any payment on account thereof, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to the
Agent for delivery to each Revolving Lender its participating interest in such
amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the
period of time during which such Revolving Lender's participating interest was
outstanding and funded); provided, however, that in the event that such payment
received by the Swing Line Lender is required to be returned, such Revolving
Lender will return to the Agent for delivery to the Swing Line Lender any
portion thereof previously distributed by the Swing Line Lender to it.

               (f) Each Lender's obligation to make the Revolving Loans referred
to in subsection 2.06(b) and to purchase participating interests pursuant to
subsection 2.06(d) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected
by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (i) any set-off,
counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Lender or
the Company may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Company or any other
Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a
Default or an Event of Default, (iii) any adverse change in the condition
(financial or otherwise) of the Company, (iv) any breach of this Agreement or
any other Loan Document by the Company, any Subsidiary or any other Lender, or
(v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not
similar to any of the foregoing.

         2.07 The Fronted Offshore Currency Loans.

               (a) Upon the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth
in Article V hereof and set forth in the applicable Offshore Currency Addendum,
from and including the later of the date of this Agreement and the date of
execution of the applicable Offshore Currency Addendum and prior to the
termination of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment (or such earlier
termination date as shall be specified in or pursuant to the applicable Offshore
Currency Addendum), each Offshore Currency Fronting Lender agrees, on the terms
and conditions set forth in this Agreement and in the applicable Offshore
Currency Addendum, to make Fronted Offshore Currency Loans under such Offshore
Currency Addendum to the applicable Borrower

                                       39
<PAGE>

party to such Offshore Currency Addendum from time to time in the applicable
Alternate Currency, in an aggregate principal Effective Amount with a Dollar
Equivalent not to exceed each such Offshore Currency Fronting Lender's
applicable Fronted Offshore Currency Commitment (the amount of which shall in no
event be, if not zero, less than the Dollar Equivalent of $10,000,000 or an
increment of $1,000,000 in excess thereof); provided, that, at no time shall the
Dollar Equivalent of the Fronted Offshore Currency Loans for any specific
Alternate Currency exceed the maximum amount specified as the maximum amount for
such Alternate Currency in the applicable Offshore Currency Addendum other than
as a result of currency fluctuations. Subject to the terms of this Agreement and
the applicable Offshore Currency Addendum, the applicable Borrowers may borrow,
repay and reborrow Fronted Offshore Currency Loans in the applicable Alternate
Currency at any time prior to the termination of the Aggregate Revolving Loan
Commitment (or such earlier termination date as shall be specified in or
pursuant to the applicable Offshore Currency Addendum). On the termination of
the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment (or such earlier termination date as
shall be specified in or pursuant to the applicable Offshore Currency Addendum),
the outstanding principal balance of the Fronted Offshore Currency Loans shall
be paid in full by the applicable Borrower and prior to the termination of the
Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment (or such earlier termination date as shall
be specified in or pursuant to the applicable Offshore Currency Addendum)
prepayments of the Fronted Offshore Currency Loans shall be made by the
applicable Borrower if and to the extent required by Section 2.11(e). For the
avoidance of doubt, it is understood that no Lender shall have any obligation
hereunder to execute an Offshore Currency Addendum and so to become an Offshore
Currency Fronting Lender.

               (b) The applicable Borrower shall pay the Offshore Currency
Fronting Lender a fronting fee in respect of each Fronted Offshore Currency Loan
in accordance with the Offshore Currency Addendum (or other agreement with the
Offshore Currency Fronting Lender).

               (c) Except as otherwise required by applicable law, in no event
shall any Offshore Currency Fronting Lender have the right to accelerate the
Fronted Offshore Currency Loans outstanding under any Offshore Currency Addendum
prior to the stated termination date in respect thereof, except that each
Offshore Currency Fronting Lender shall have such rights upon an acceleration of
the Loans and a termination of the Revolving Loan Commitments pursuant to
Article IX.

               (d) Each Offshore Currency Fronting Lender shall furnish to the
Agent not less frequently than monthly, at the end of each calendar quarter, and
at any other time upon the request of the Agent, a statement setting forth the
outstanding Fronted Offshore Currency Loans made and repaid during the period
since the last such report under such Offshore Currency Addendum.

               (e) Immediately and automatically upon the occurrence of an Event
of Default under Sections 9.1(a), (f) or (g), each Revolving Lender shall be
deemed to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the applicable
Offshore Currency Fronting Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided
interest in and participation in each Fronted Offshore Currency Loan ratably in
an amount equal to such Lender's Pro Rata Revolving Share of the amount of
principal and accrued interest of such Loan, and immediately and automatically
all Fronted Offshore Currency Loans shall be converted to and redenominated in
Dollars equal to

                                       40
<PAGE>
the Dollar Equivalent of each such Fronted Offshore Currency Loan determined as
of the date of such conversion; provided, that to the extent such conversion
shall occur other than at the end of an Interest Period, the applicable Borrower
shall pay to the applicable Offshore Currency Fronting Lender, all losses and
breakage costs related thereto in accordance with Section 4.04. Each of the
Lenders shall pay to the applicable Offshore Currency Fronting Lender not later
than two (2) Business Days following a request for payment from such Offshore
Currency Fronting Lender, in Dollars, an amount equal to the undivided interest
in and participation in the Fronted Offshore Currency Loan purchased by such
Lender pursuant to this Section 2.07(e). In the event that any Lender fails to
make payment to the applicable Offshore Currency Fronting Lender of any amount
due under this Section 2.07(e), the Agent shall be entitled to receive, retain
and apply against such obligation the principal and interest otherwise payable
to such Lender hereunder until the Agent receives from such Lender an amount
sufficient to discharge such Lender's payment obligation as prescribed in this
Section 2.07(e) together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for
each day during the period commencing on the date of demand by the applicable
Offshore Currency Fronting Lender and ending on the date such obligation is
fully satisfied. The Agent will promptly remit all payments received as provided
above to the applicable Offshore Currency Fronting Lender. In consideration of
the risk participations prescribed in this Section 2.07(e), each Lender shall
receive, from the accrued interest paid for periods prior to the conversion of
any Fronted Offshore Currency Loan as described above by the applicable Borrower
on each Fronted Offshore Currency Loan, a fee equal to such Lender's Pro Rata
Revolving Share of the Applicable Offshore Rate Margin component of the interest
accrued on such Loan, as in effect from time to time during the period such
interest accrued. Such portion of the interest paid by the applicable Borrower
on Fronted Offshore Currency Loans to the applicable Offshore Currency Fronting
Lender shall be paid as promptly as possible by such Offshore Currency Fronting
Lender to the Agent, and the Agent shall as promptly as possible convert such
amount into Dollars at the spot rate of exchange in accordance with its normal
banking practices and apply such resulting amount ratably among the Lenders
(including the Offshore Currency Fronting Lenders) in proportion to their Pro
Rata Revolving Share.

               (f) Whenever, at any time after a Revolving Lender has purchased
a participating interest in a Fronted Offshore Currency Loan, the Offshore
Currency Fronting Lender receives any payment on account thereof, the Offshore
Currency Fronting Lender will distribute to the Agent for delivery to each
Revolving Lender its participating interest in such amount (appropriately
adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during
which such Revolving Lender's participating interest was outstanding and
funded); provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the
Offshore Currency Fronting Lender is required to be returned, such Revolving
Lender will return to the Agent for delivery to the Offshore Currency Fronting
Lender any portion thereof previously distributed by the Agent or the Offshore
Currency Fronting Lender to it.

               (g) Each Revolving Lender's obligation to purchase the
participating interests referred to in subsection 2.07(e) shall be absolute and
unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, without
limitation, (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right
which such Revolving Lender or any Borrower may have against the Offshore
Currency Fronting Lender, the Company or any other Person for any reason
whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of
Default, (iii) any

                                       41
<PAGE>
adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Borrower, (iv)
any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any Borrower, any
Guarantor or any other Lender, or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event
whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

               (h) The specification of payment of Fronted Offshore Currency
Loans in the related Alternate Currency at a specific place pursuant to this
Agreement is of the essence. Such Alternate Currency shall, subject to Section
2.07, be the currency of account and payment of such Loans under this Agreement
and the applicable Offshore Currency Addendum. Notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement, the obligation of the applicable Borrower in respect of such Loans
shall not be discharged by an amount paid in any other currency or at another
place, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, to the extent the amount so
paid, on prompt conversion into the applicable Alternate Currency and transfer
to such Lender under normal banking procedure, does not yield the amount of such
Alternate Currency due under this Agreement or the applicable Offshore Currency
Addendum. In the event that any payment, whether pursuant to a judgment or
otherwise, upon conversion and transfer, does not result in payment of the
amount of such Alternate Currency due under this Agreement or the applicable
Offshore Currency Addendum, such Lender shall have an independent cause of
action against each of the Borrowers for the currency deficit. In the event that
any payment, upon conversion and transfer, results in payment in excess of the
amount of such Alternate Currency due under this Agreement or the applicable
Offshore Currency Addendum, such Lender shall refund such excess to the
applicable Borrower.

         2.08 Utilization of Commitments in Offshore Currencies.

               (a) The Agent will determine the Dollar Equivalent amount with
respect to any (i) Borrowing comprised of Offshore Currency Loans as of the
requested Borrowing Date, (ii) outstanding Offshore Currency Loans as of the
last Banking Day of each month, and (iii) outstanding Offshore Currency Loans as
of any redenomination date pursuant to this Section 2.08 or Section 4.05 (each
such date under clauses (i) through (iii) a "Computation Date"). The Agent will
provide the Company with the amount determined pursuant to the foregoing clause
(ii) promptly following the end of each month. Upon receipt of any Notice of
Borrowing, the Agent will promptly notify each Revolving Lender thereof and of
the amount of such Lender's Pro Rata Revolving Share of the Borrowing. In the
case of a Borrowing comprised of Offshore Currency Loans, such notice will
provide the approximate amount of each Lender's Pro Rata Revolving Share of the
Borrowing, and the Agent will, upon the determination of the Dollar Equivalent
amount of the Borrowing as specified in the Notice of Borrowing, promptly notify
each Revolving Lender of the exact amount of such Revolving Lender's Pro Rata
Revolving Share of the Borrowing.

               (b) In the case of a proposed Borrowing comprised of Offshore
Currency Loans, the Revolving Lenders shall be under no obligation to make
Offshore Currency Loans in the requested Offshore Currency as part of such
Borrowing if the Agent has received notice from any of the Revolving Lenders by
3:00 p.m. (local time) three Business Days prior to the day of such Borrowing
that such Lender cannot provide Loans in the requested Offshore Currency, in
which event the Agent will give notice to the Company no later than 9:00 a.m.
(local time) on the third Business Day prior to the requested date of such
Borrowing that the Borrowing in the

                                       42
<PAGE>

requested Offshore Currency is not then available, no such Borrowing shall be
made and any request for a Revolving Loan in such Offshore Currency shall be
deemed withdrawn and shall otherwise be without effect.

               (c) In the case of a proposed continuation of Offshore Currency
Loans for an additional Interest Period pursuant to Section 2.04, the Revolving
Lenders shall be under no obligation to continue such Offshore Currency Loans if
the Agent has received notice from any of the Revolving Lenders by 4:00 p.m.
(local time) three Business Days prior to the day of such continuation that such
Revolving Lender cannot continue to provide Loans in the Offshore Currency, in
which event the Agent will give notice to the Company not later than 9:00 a.m.
(local time) on the second Business Day prior to the requested date of such
continuation that the continuation of such Offshore Currency Loans in the
Offshore Currency is not then available, and notice thereof also will be given
promptly by the Agent to the Lenders. If the Agent shall have so notified the
Company that any such continuation of Offshore Currency Loans is not then
available, any Notice of Continuation/Conversion with respect thereto shall be
deemed withdrawn and such Offshore Currency Loans shall be redenominated into
Base Rate Loans assumed by the Company in Dollars with effect from the last day
of the Interest Period with respect to any such Offshore Currency Loans. The
Agent will promptly notify the Company and the Revolving Lenders of any such
redenomination and in such notice by the Agent to each Revolving Lender the
Agent will state the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of the redenominated
Offshore Currency Loans assumed by the Company as of the Computation Date with
respect thereto and such Revolving Lender's Pro Rata Share thereof.

               (d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, during the
existence of an Event of Default, upon the request of the Required Revolving
Lenders, all or any part of any outstanding Offshore Currency Loans shall be
redenominated and converted into Base Rate Loans in Dollars assumed by the
Company with effect from the last day of the Interest Period with respect to any
such Offshore Currency Loans. The Agent will promptly notify the applicable
Borrower of any such redenomination and conversion request.

               (e) The Company shall be entitled to request that Revolving Loans
hereunder shall also be permitted to be made in any other lawful currency
constituting a eurocurrency (other than Dollars), in addition to the currencies
specified in the definition of "Offshore Currency" herein, that in the opinion
of each Revolving Lender is at such time freely traded in the offshore interbank
foreign exchange markets and is freely transferable and freely convertible into
Dollars (an "Agreed Alternative Currency"). The Company shall deliver to the
Agent any request for designation of an Agreed Alternative Currency in
accordance with Section 11.02, to be received by the Agent not later than noon
(local time) at least ten Business Days in advance of the date of any Borrowing
hereunder proposed to be made in such Agreed Alternative Currency. Upon receipt
of any such request the Agent will promptly notify the Revolving Lenders
thereof, and each Revolving Lender will use its best efforts to respond to such
request within two Business Days of receipt thereof. Each Revolving Lender may
grant or accept such request in its sole discretion. The Agent will promptly
notify the Company of the acceptance or rejection of any such request.

         2.09 Voluntary Termination, Reduction or Increase of Revolving Loan
Commitments. (a) The Company may, upon not less than five Business Days' prior
notice to the Agent,

                                       43
<PAGE>

terminate the Revolving Loan Commitments, or permanently reduce the Revolving
Loan Commitments by an aggregate minimum amount of $10,000,000 or any multiple
of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; unless, after giving effect thereto and to any
prepayments of Loans made on the effective date thereof, (a) the Dollar
Equivalent of the Effective Amount of all Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and
L/C Obligations together plus the amount of all outstanding Fronted Offshore
Currency Commitments would exceed the amount of the Aggregate Revolving Loan
Commitment then in effect, or (b) the Dollar Equivalent of the Effective Amount
of all L/C Obligations then outstanding would exceed the L/C Commitment. Once
reduced in accordance with this Section, the Revolving Loan Commitments may not
be increased. Any reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitments shall be applied
to each Revolving Lender according to its Pro Rata Revolving Share. All accrued
commitment and letter of credit fees to, but not including, the effective date
of any reduction or termination of Revolving Loan Commitments, shall be paid on
the effective date of such reduction or termination.

               (b) At no time shall the sum of the Swing Line Commitment and the
Fronted Offshore Currency Commitment(s) exceed the Aggregate Revolving Loan
Commitment, and any reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment which
reduces the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment below the then-current sum of
the Swing Line Commitment and the Fronted Offshore Currency Commitments shall
result in an automatic pro rata corresponding reduction of each of the Swing
Line Commitment and the Fronted Offshore Currency Commitment(s) so that the sum
thereof is equal to the amount of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, as so
reduced, without any action on the part of the Swing Line Lender or the Fronted
Offshore Currency Lender(s). At no time shall either the sum of the Swing Line
Commitment plus any Fronted Offshore Currency Commitment of BofA exceed the
Revolving Loan Commitment of BofA, and any reduction of the Aggregate Revolving
Loan Commitment which reduces the Revolving Loan Commitment of BofA below the
then-current sum of the Swing Line Commitment plus the Fronted Offshore Currency
Commitment of BofA shall result in an automatic corresponding reduction of the
Swing Line Commitment and the Fronted Offshore Currency Commitment of BofA, on a
ratable basis, to the amount of the Revolving Loan Commitment of BofA, as so
reduced, without any action on the part of BofA.

               (c) The Company may, at its option, on two occasions within two
years of the Second Restatement Date, seek to increase the Aggregate Revolving
Loan Commitment by up to an aggregate amount of $50,000,000 (resulting in a
maximum Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment of $220,000,000) upon at least three
(3) Business Days' prior written notice to the Agent, which notice shall specify
the amount of any such increase and shall be delivered at a time when no Default
or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. The Company may, after
giving such notice, offer the increase (which may be declined by any Lender in
its sole discretion) in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment on either a
ratable basis to the Lenders or on a non pro-rata basis to one or more Lenders
and/or to other banks or entities reasonably acceptable to the Agent. No
increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment shall become effective until
the existing or new Lenders extending such incremental Revolving Loan Commitment
amount and the Company shall have delivered to the Agent a document in form
reasonably satisfactory to the Agent pursuant to which any such existing
Revolving Lender states the amount of its Revolving Loan Commitment increase,
any such new Revolving Lender states its Revolving Loan Commitment amount and
agrees to

                                       44
<PAGE>

assume and accept the obligations and rights of a Revolving Lender hereunder and
the Company accepts such incremental Revolving Loan Commitments. The Revolving
Lenders (new or existing) shall accept an assignment from the existing Revolving
Lenders, and the existing Revolving Lenders shall make an assignment to the new
or existing Revolving Lender accepting a new or increased Revolving Loan
Commitment, of an interest (or participation interest, as applicable) in all
Revolving Loans and other credit exposure in respect of the Aggregate Revolving
Loan Commitment such that, after giving effect thereto, all Revolving Loans and
all such other credit exposure are held ratably by the Revolving Lenders in
proportion to their respective Revolving Loan Commitments. Assignments pursuant
to the preceding sentence shall be made in exchange for the principal amount
assigned plus accrued and unpaid interest and commitment and other fees. The
Company shall make any payments under Section 4.04 resulting from such
assignments.

         2.10 Optional Prepayments. Subject to Section 4.04, any Borrower may,
at any time or from time to time, upon not less than two (2) Business Days'
irrevocable notice to the Agent, in respect of Offshore Rate Loans (other than
Fronted Offshore Currency Loans, except as otherwise provided in the applicable
Offshore Currency Addendum), and in respect of Base Rate Loans, by not later
than 10:30 a.m. (local time) on the prepayment date, prepay Loans in whole or in
part, in minimum amounts equal to the Dollar Equivalent of $3,000,000 or any
Dollar Equivalent multiple of $250,000 in excess thereof. Such notice of
prepayment shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment, which Loans are
to be prepaid and the Type(s) of such Loans to be prepaid. The Agent will
promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of any such notice, and of such
Lender's Pro Rata Share of such prepayment. If such notice is given by any
Borrower, such Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount
specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein,
together, in the case of Offshore Rate Loans, with accrued interest to each such
date on the amount prepaid and any amounts required pursuant to Section 4.04.
Optional prepayments of any Term Loan shall be applied first, in the order of
maturity, to payments due on such Term Loan in the next 12 months, and then
ratably to all remaining payments on such Term Loan.

         2.11 Mandatory Prepayments of Loans. (a) If on any date the Effective
Amount of L/C Obligations exceeds the L/C Commitment, the Company shall Cash
Collateralize on such date the outstanding Letters of Credit in an amount equal
to the excess of the maximum amount then available to be drawn under the Letters
of Credit over the Aggregate L/C Commitment. Subject to Section 4.04, if on any
date, after giving effect to any Cash Collateralization made on such date
pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Dollar Equivalent of the Effective
Amount of all Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and Fronted Offshore Currency
Loans then outstanding plus the Effective Amount of all L/C Obligations exceeds
the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, the Borrowers shall immediately, and
without notice or demand, prepay the outstanding principal amount of the
Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans, Fronted Offshore Currency Loans and/or L/C
Advances by an amount equal to such excess.

               (b) Within five (5) Business Days after the receipt thereof, the
Company shall prepay the Term Loans and reduce the Aggregate Revolving Loan
Commitment in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Proceeds realized upon the
issuance by the Company or any Subsidiary of any publicly traded debt securities
(or other Indebtedness issued pursuant to an indenture,

                                       45
<PAGE>

including Indebtedness issued in a so called "144A Offering") other than any
subordinated debt securities issued pursuant to Section 8.05(g) or Indebtedness
incurred pursuant to Section 8.05(i).

               (c) Within five (5) Business Days after the end of each fiscal
quarter, the Company shall prepay the Term Loans and reduce the Aggregate
Revolving Loan Commitment in an amount equal to 100% of the sum of (a) the Net
Proceeds realized upon all Asset Dispositions (excluding those described in
Section 8.02 (a)-(c) and (e)-(m) and those which, together with all related
Asset Dispositions, result in Net Proceeds of less than $2,000,000) made by the
Company or any Subsidiary in such fiscal quarter, (b) the insurance proceeds
received by the Company or any Subsidiary in such fiscal quarter following a
casualty involving such Person's Property and (c) the payments received by the
Company or any Subsidiary in such fiscal quarter from a condemnation of such
Person's Property, aggregating in excess of $250,000, to the extent not applied
(or committed to be applied) within 90 days after the consummation or receipt
thereof, as applicable, to the purchase of other assets that are not classified
as current assets under GAAP and are used or useful in the business of the
Company and its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the prepayment due
in respect of any sales pursuant to a Permitted Securitization shall not exceed
the program limit for such Permitted Securitization.

               (d) The amount of any prepayment pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c)
shall be applied (i) first to the Term Loans (on a ratable basis among the
outstanding Term Loans) as described in the last sentence of Section 2.10, and
then (ii) to permanently reduce the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment. The
Company shall use its best efforts to notify the Agent and each Lender of the
amount of any required prepayment at least three (3) Business Days before it is
made.

               (e) If at any time of calculation by the Agent (whether pursuant
to Section 2.08(a) or otherwise) (i) the Dollar Equivalent of the Effective
Amount of all Revolving Loans denominated in an Offshore Currency plus the
outstanding amount of all Fronted Offshore Currency Commitments exceeds either
the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment or the Offshore Currency Sublimit as a
result of fluctuations in currency exchange rates, the Borrowers shall, within
one (1) Business Day after receipt of notice thereof, prepay Loans in an
aggregate amount such that after giving effect thereto any such excess is
eliminated; or (ii) the Dollar Equivalent of the Effective Amount of the
aggregate outstanding principal amount of Fronted Offshore Currency Loans in the
same Alternate Currency exceeds the aggregate Fronted Offshore Currency
Commitments with respect thereto as a result of fluctuations in currency
exchange rates, the applicable Borrowers shall, within one (1) Business Day
after receipt of notice thereof, prepay Fronted Offshore Currency Loans in such
Alternate Currency in an aggregate amount such that after giving effect thereto
the Dollar Equivalent of the Effective Amount of all Fronted Offshore Currency
Loans in such Alternate Currency is less than or equal to the aggregate Fronted
Offshore Currency Commitments with respect thereto.

               (f) Waiver of Certain Mandatory Prepayments by Term Loan B
Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.11
or elsewhere in this Agreement, any Lender with an outstanding Term Loan B shall
have the option to waive a mandatory prepayment of such Term Loan pursuant to
subsection 2.11(b) or (c) (each such prepayment, a "Waivable Mandatory Term Loan
B Prepayment") upon the terms and provisions

                                       46
<PAGE>

set forth in this subsection 2.11(f). In the event any such Lender desires to
waive such Lender's right to receive any such Waivable Mandatory Term Loan B
Prepayment in whole or in part, such Lender shall so advise the Agent no later
than the close of business two (2) Business Days prior to the date on which such
prepayment is to occur, which notice shall also include the amount, if any, such
Lender desires to receive in respect of such prepayment. If any such Lender does
not provide such notice by such date, it will be deemed not to have waived any
part of such prepayment. If any such Lender does not specify an amount it wishes
to receive, it will be deemed to have accepted one hundred percent (100%) of the
total amount otherwise payable to it. In the event that any such Lender waives
all or part of such right to receive any such Waivable Mandatory Term Loan B
Prepayment, the Agent shall apply one hundred percent (100%) of the amount so
waived by such Lender to Term Loan A in accordance with Section 2.11; provided,
that if the aggregate amount of the applicable prepayment requested to be waived
by such Lenders would exceed the amount required to prepay Term Loan A in full,
then such requested waived amounts shall be allocated ratably among the waiving
Term Loan B Lenders, based upon the amounts of the requested waivers; provided,
further, that no such waiver requests shall be honored following the prepayment
in full of Term Loan A.

         2.12 Repayment. (a) Term Loans. The Company shall repay the Term Loans
on each date set forth below as follows (each a "Principal Payment Date"):

                           Term Loan A              Term Loan B

               (b) The Revolving Credit. The Borrowers shall repay to the
Lenders on the Revolving Termination Date the aggregate principal amount of
Revolving Loans outstanding on such date.

         2.13 Interest. (a) Each Revolving Loan and Term Loan shall bear
interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable
Borrowing Date at a rate per annum equal to the Offshore Rate or the Base Rate,
as the case may be (and subject to the Borrowers' right to convert to other
Types of Loans under Section 2.04), plus the Applicable Offshore Rate Margin or
the Applicable Base Rate Margin, as applicable. Each Fronted Offshore Currency
Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the
applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Fronted
Offshore Currency Rate.

               (b) Interest on each Revolving Loan and Term Loan shall be paid
in arrears on each Interest Payment Date. Interest on Base Rate Loans shall also
be paid on the date of any payment (including prepayment) in full thereof.
Interest on Offshore Rate Loans shall also be paid on the date of any prepayment
of Loans under Section 2.10 or 2.11 for the portion of the Loans so prepaid and
upon payment (including prepayment) in full thereof. During the existence of any
Event of Default, interest on all Loans shall be paid on demand of the Agent at
the request or with the consent of the Required Lenders.

               (c) Notwithstanding subsection 2.13(a), while any Event of
Default exists or after acceleration, the applicable Borrower shall pay interest
(after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by
law) on the principal amount of all outstanding Obligations, at a rate per annum
which is determined by adding 2% per annum to the applicable interest rate
otherwise then in effect for such Loans; provided, however, that on and after
the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any Offshore Rate Loan
outstanding on the date of occurrence of such Event of Default or acceleration,
the principal amount of such Loan shall, during the continuation of such Event
of Default or after acceleration, bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the
Base Rate plus the Applicable Base Rate Margin plus 2%.

               (d) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the
obligations of any Borrower to any Lender hereunder shall be subject to the
limitation that payments of interest shall not be required for any period for
which interest is computed hereunder, to the extent (but only to the extent)
that contracting for or receiving such payment by such Lender would be contrary
to the provisions of any law applicable to such Lender limiting the highest rate
of interest that may be lawfully contracted for, charged or received by such
Lender, and in such event such Borrower shall pay such Lender interest at the
highest rate permitted by applicable law.

         2.14 Fees. In addition to certain fees described in Section 3.08:

               (a) Arrangement, Agency Fees, Amendment Fees, Upfront Fees. The
Company shall pay such fees to the Agent and the Arranger as are required by the
letter agreement ("Fee Letter") between the Company and the Arranger and Agent
dated June 20, 2001.

               (b) Commitment Fees. The Company shall pay to the Agent for the
account of each Revolving Lender a commitment fee on the average daily unused
portion of such Revolving Lender's Revolving Loan Commitment, computed on a
quarterly basis in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter
based upon the daily utilization for that quarter as calculated by the Agent,
equal to the Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage. For purposes of calculating
utilization under this subsection, the Revolving Loan Commitments shall be
deemed used to the extent of the Effective Amount of Revolving Loans then
outstanding (excluding any outstanding Swing Line Loans), plus the Effective
Amount of the Dollar Equivalent of the Fronted Offshore Currency Loans then
outstanding plus the Effective Amount of L/C Obligations then outstanding. Such
commitment fee shall accrue from the date hereof to the Revolving Termination
Date and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day
of each calendar quarter commencing on September 30, 2000 through the Revolving
Termination Date, with the final payment to be made on the Revolving Termination
Date; provided that, in connection with any reduction or termination of
Revolving Loan Commitments under Section 2.09, the accrued commitment fee
calculated for the period ending on such date shall also be paid on the date of
such reduction or termination, with the following quarterly payment being
calculated on the basis of the period from such reduction or termination date to
such quarterly payment date. The commitment fees provided in this subsection
shall accrue at all times after the above-mentioned commencement date, including
at any time during which one or more conditions in Article V are not met.

         2.15 Computation of Fees and Interest. (a) All computations of interest
for Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is determined by BofA's "reference rate"
shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and
actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made
on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more
interest being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest
and fees shall accrue during each period during which interest or such fees are
computed from the first day thereof to the last day thereof.

               (b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Agent shall be
conclusive and binding on the applicable Borrower and the Lenders in the absence
of manifest error.

         2.16 Payments by the Borrowers. (a) All payments to be made by the
Borrowers shall be made without set-off, recoupment or counterclaim. Except as
otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrowers shall be made
to the Agent for the account of the Lenders at the Agent's Payment Office, and
shall be made in dollars and in immediately available funds, no later than 11:00
a.m. (local time) on the date specified herein. The Agent will promptly
distribute to each Lender its applicable share of such payment in like funds as
received which, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, shall be based
upon such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Loans in respect of which such
prepayment has been made. Any payment received by the

                                       49
<PAGE>

Agent later than 1:00 p.m. (local time) shall be deemed to have been received on
the following Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to
accrue.

               (b) Subject to the provisions set forth in the definition of
"Interest Period" herein, whenever any payment is due on a day other than a
Business Day, such payment shall be made on the following Business Day, and such
extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest
or fees, as the case may be.

               (c) Unless the Agent receives notice from a Borrower prior to the
date on which any payment is due to the Lenders that such Borrower will not make
such payment in full as and when required, the Agent may assume that such
Borrower has made such payment in full to the Agent on such date in immediately
available funds and the Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance
upon such assumption, distribute to each Lender on such due date an amount equal
to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent a Borrower has not made
such payment in full to the Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Agent on
demand such amount distributed to such Lender, together with interest thereon at
the Federal Funds Rate for each day from the date such amount is distributed to
such Lender until the date repaid.

         2.17 Payments by the Lenders to the Agent. (a) Except as otherwise
expressly provided in Section 2.08 with respect to Fronted Offshore Currency
Loans, unless the Agent receives notice from a Lender on or prior to the Second
Restatement Date or, with respect to any Borrowing after the Second Restatement
Date, at least one Business Day prior to the date of such Borrowing, that such
Lender will not make available as and when required hereunder to the Agent for
the account of a Borrower the amount of that Lender's Pro Rata Share of the
Borrowing, the Agent may assume that each Lender has made such amount available
to the Agent in immediately available funds on the Borrowing Date and the Agent
may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, make
available to such Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the
extent any Lender shall not have made its full amount available to the Agent in
immediately available funds and the Agent in such circumstances has made
available to such Borrower such amount, that Lender shall on the Business Day
following such Borrowing Date make such amount available to the Agent, together
with interest at the Federal Funds Rate for each day during such period. A
notice of the Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to amounts owing under
this subsection (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If such amount
is so made available, such payment to the Agent shall constitute such Lender's
Loan on the date of Borrowing for all purposes of this Agreement. If such amount
is not made available to the Agent on the Business Day following the Borrowing
Date, the Agent will notify applicable Borrower of such failure to fund and,
upon demand by the Agent, such Borrower shall pay such amount to the Agent for
the Agent's account, together with interest thereon for each day elapsed since
the date of such Borrowing, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate
applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing.

               (b) The failure of any Lender to make any Loan on any Borrowing
Date shall not relieve any other Lender of any obligation hereunder to make a
Loan on such Borrowing Date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure
of any other Lender to make the Loan to be made by such other Lender on any
Borrowing Date.

                                       50

         2.18 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If, other than as expressly provided
elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the Loans made by it any
payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of
set-off, or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share (or other share
contemplated hereunder), such Lender shall immediately (a) notify the Agent of
such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the
Loans made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to
share the excess payment pro rata with each of them; provided, however, that if
all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the
purchasing Lender, such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each
other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid
therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender's ratable share
(according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender's required
repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of
any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect
of the total amount so recovered. Each Borrower agrees that any Lender so
purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of
set-off, but subject to Section 11.10) with respect to such participation as
fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount
of such participation. The Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive
and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under
this Section and will in each case notify the Lenders following any such
purchases or repayments.

         2.19 Security and Subsidiary Guaranty. (a) All Obligations of the
Borrowers and the Guarantors under this Agreement, the Notes and all other Loan
Documents shall be secured in accordance with the Collateral Documents.

               (b) All Obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement, each
of the Notes delivered by it and all other Loan Documents shall be
unconditionally guaranteed by the Guarantors pursuant to the Subsidiary
Guaranty, and all Obligations of the Subsidiary Borrowers under this Agreement,
each of the Notes delivered by them and all other Loan Documents shall be
unconditionally guaranteed by the Company pursuant to the terms of Section 12
hereof.

         2.20 Subsidiary Borrowers. On or after the Second Restatement Date,
with the consent of the Agent, the Company may designate any Subsidiary (other
than any Securitization Subsidiary and any captive insurance company Subsidiary)
as a Subsidiary Borrower by delivery to the Agent of a Subsidiary Borrower
Supplement executed by such Subsidiary and the Company, together with Notes in
favor of each Revolving Lender and, if applicable, a Fronted Offshore Currency
Note in favor of the Offshore Currency Fronting Lender, and upon such delivery
such Subsidiary shall for all purposes of this Agreement be a Subsidiary
Borrower and party to this Agreement. As soon as practicable upon receipt of a
Subsidiary Borrower Supplement, the Agent will deliver a copy thereof to each
Lender. So long as the principal of and interest on all Loans made to any
Subsidiary Borrowers under this Agreement shall have been paid in full and all
other obligations of such Subsidiary Borrower shall have been fully performed,
such Subsidiary Borrower may, upon not less than five Business Days' prior
written notice to the Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders thereof),
terminate its status as a "Subsidiary Borrower".

                                  ARTICLE III

                              THE LETTERS OF CREDIT

         3.01 The Letter of Credit Subfacility. (a) On the terms and conditions
set forth herein (i) the Issuer agrees, (A) from time to time on any Business
Day, during the period from the Second Restatement Date to the day which is five
days prior to the Revolving Termination Date, to issue Letters of Credit for the
account of the Company in an aggregate Stated Amount in Dollars or any Alternate
Currency at any one time that, the Dollar Equivalent of which, together with the
aggregate Dollar Equivalent of the Stated Amount of all other outstanding
Letters of Credit issued pursuant hereto, does not exceed the L/C Commitment,
and to amend or renew Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance
with subsections 3.02(c) and 3.02(d), and (B) to honor drafts under the Letters
of Credit; and (ii) the Revolving Lenders severally agree to participate in
Letters of Credit Issued for the account of the Company; provided, that the
Issuer shall not be obligated to Issue, and no Revolving Lender shall be
obligated to participate in, any Letter of Credit if as of the date of Issuance
of such Letter of Credit (the "Issuance Date") (1) the Dollar Equivalent of the
Effective Amount of all L/C Obligations, plus the Dollar Equivalent of the
Effective Amount of all Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans plus the aggregate
amount of all Fronted Offshore Currency Commitments exceeds the Aggregate
Revolving Loan Commitment or (2) the participation of any Lender in the Dollar
Equivalent of the Effective Amount of all L/C Obligations plus the Effective
Amount of the Revolving Loans of such Lender and such Revolving Lender's Pro
Rata Revolving Share of any outstanding Swing Line Loans and Fronted Offshore
Currency Commitments exceeds such Lender's Commitment. Within the foregoing
limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Company's
ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and, accordingly,
the Company may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to
replace Letters of Credit which have expired or which have been drawn upon and
reimbursed.

               (b) The Issuer is under no obligation to, and shall not, Issue
any Letter of Credit if:

                    (i) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental
     Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain
     the Issuer from Issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Requirement of Law
     applicable to the Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having
     the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over
     the Issuer shall prohibit, or request that the Issuer refrain from, the
     Issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in
     particular or shall impose upon the Issuer with respect to such Letter of
     Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the
     Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing
     Date, or shall impose upon the Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or
     expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which the Issuer
     in good faith deems material to it;

                    (ii) the Issuer has received written notice from any
     Revolving Lender, the Agent or the Company, on or prior to the Business Day
     prior to the requested date of Issuance of such Letter of Credit, that one
     or more of the applicable conditions contained in Article V is not then
     satisfied;

                                       52
<PAGE>

                    (iii) the expiry date of any requested Letter of Credit is
     (A) more than 720 days after the date of Issuance, unless (1) the Required
     Revolving Lenders have approved such expiry date in writing or (2) such
     Letter of Credit is a Surety L/C, or (B) after the date which is five days
     prior to the Revolving Termination Date, unless all of the Revolving
     Lenders have approved such expiry date in writing;

                    (iv) the expiry date of any requested Letter of Credit is
     prior to the maturity date of any financial obligation to be supported by
     the requested Letter of Credit;

                    (v) any requested Letter of Credit does not provide for
     drafts, or is not otherwise in form and substance acceptable to the Issuer,
     or the Issuance of a Letter of Credit shall violate any applicable policies
     of the Issuer; or

                    (vi) such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a
     currency other than Dollars or any Offshore Currency.

         3.02 Issuance, Amendment and Renewal of Letters of Credit. (a) Each
Letter of Credit shall be issued upon the irrevocable written request of the
Company received by the Issuer (with a copy sent by the Company to the Agent) at
least three days (or such shorter time as the Issuer may agree in a particular
instance in its sole discretion) prior to the proposed date of issuance;
provided, that five days' prior notice (or such shorter time as the Issuer may
agree in a particular instance in its sole discretion) shall be required in
respect of each Letter of Credit to be denominated in an Offshore Currency. Each
such request for issuance of a Letter of Credit shall be by facsimile, confirmed
immediately in an original writing (if required by the Issuer), in the form of
an L/C Application (or such other form as shall be acceptable to the Issuer), or
shall be by online letter of credit software acceptable to the Issuer, and shall
specify in form and detail satisfactory to the Issuer: (i) the proposed date of
issuance of the Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (ii) the face
amount of the Letter of Credit; (iii) the expiry date of the Letter of Credit;
(iv) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (v) the documents to be
presented by the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit in case of any drawing
thereunder; (vi) the full text of any certificate to be presented by the
beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (vii) the currency in which such
Letter of Credit is to be denominated, which shall be Dollars or an Offshore
Currency; and (viii) such other matters as the Issuer may require.

               (b) At least two Business Days prior to the Issuance of any
Letter of Credit (or such shorter time as the Agent may agree in a particular
instance in its sole discretion), the Issuer will confirm with the Agent (by
telephone or in writing) that the Agent has received a copy of the L/C
Application or L/C Amendment Application from the Company and, if not, the
Issuer will provide the Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the Issuer has
received notice on or before the Business Day immediately preceding the date the
Issuer is to issue a requested Letter of Credit from the Agent (A) directing the
Issuer not to issue such Letter of Credit because such issuance is not then
permitted under subsection 3.01(a) as a result of the limitations set forth in
clauses (1) through (3) thereof or subsection 3.01(b)(ii); or (B) that one or
more conditions specified in Article V are not then satisfied; then, subject to
the terms and conditions hereof, the Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue
a Letter of Credit for the account of the Company in accordance with the
Issuer's usual and customary business practices.

                                       53
<PAGE>

               (c) From time to time while a Letter of Credit is outstanding and
prior to the Revolving Termination Date, the Issuer will, upon the written
request of the Company received by the Issuer (with a copy sent by the Company
to the Agent) at least three days (or such shorter time as the Issuer may agree
in a particular instance in its sole discretion) prior to the proposed date of
amendment, amend any Letter of Credit issued by it. Each such request for
amendment of a Letter of Credit shall be made by facsimile, confirmed
immediately in an original writing (if required by the Issuer), made in the form
of an L/C Amendment Application or through on-line letter of credit software
acceptable to the Issuer and shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to
the Issuer: (i) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (ii) the proposed date of
amendment of the Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (iii) the
nature of the proposed amendment; and (iv) such other matters as the Issuer may
require. The Issuer shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit
if: (A) the Issuer would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of
Credit in its amended form under the terms of this Agreement; or (B) the
beneficiary of any such letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment
to the Letter of Credit. The Agent will promptly notify the Revolving Lenders of
the receipt by it of any L/C Application or L/C Amendment Application.

               (d) The Issuer and the Lenders agree that, while a Letter of
Credit is outstanding and prior to the Revolving Termination Date, at the option
of the Company and upon the written request of the Company received by the
Issuer (with a copy sent by the Company to the Agent) at least three days (or
such shorter time as the Issuer may agree in a particular instance in its sole
discretion) prior to the proposed date of notification of renewal, the Issuer
shall be entitled to authorize the automatic renewal of any Letter of Credit
issued by it. Each such request for renewal of a Letter of Credit shall be made
by facsimile, confirmed immediately in an original writing (if required by the
Issuer), in the form of an L/C Amendment Application or through on-line letter
of credit software acceptable to the Issuer, and shall specify in form and
detail satisfactory to the Issuer: (i) the Letter of Credit to be renewed; (ii)
the proposed date of notification of renewal of the Letter of Credit (which
shall be a Business Day); (iii) the revised expiry date of the Letter of Credit;
and (iv) such other matters as the Issuer may require. The Issuer shall be under
no obligation so to renew any Letter of Credit if: (A) the Issuer would have no
obligation at such time to issue or amend such Letter of Credit in its renewed
form under the terms of this Agreement; or (B) the beneficiary of any such
Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed renewal of the Letter of Credit.
If any outstanding Letter of Credit shall provide that it shall be automatically
renewed unless the beneficiary thereof receives notice from the Issuer that such
Letter of Credit shall not be renewed, and if at the time of renewal the Issuer
would be entitled to authorize the automatic renewal of such Letter of Credit in
accordance with this subsection 3.02(e) upon the request of the Company but the
Issuer shall not have received any L/C Amendment Application from the Company
with respect to such renewal or other written direction by the Company with
respect thereto, the Issuer shall nonetheless be permitted to allow such Letter
of Credit to renew, and the Company and the Lenders hereby authorize such
renewal, and, accordingly, the Issuer shall be deemed to have received an L/C
Amendment Application from the Company requesting such renewal.

               (e) The Issuer may, at its election (or as required by the Agent
at the direction of the Required Revolving Lenders), deliver any notices of
termination or other communications to any Letter of Credit beneficiary or
transferee, and take any other action as necessary or

                                       54
<PAGE>

appropriate, at any time and from time to time, in order to cause the expiry
date of such Letter of Credit to be a date not later than the date which is five
days prior to the Revolving Termination Date.

               (f) This Agreement shall control in the event of any conflict
with any L/C-Related Document (other than any Letter of Credit).

               (g) The Issuer will also deliver to the Agent, concurrently or
promptly following its delivery of a Letter of Credit, or amendment to or
renewal of a Letter of Credit, to an advising bank or a beneficiary, a true and
complete copy of each such Letter of Credit or amendment to or renewal of a
Letter of Credit.

         3.03 Risk Participations, Drawings and Reimbursements. (a) Immediately
upon the Issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Revolving Lender shall be
deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from
the Issuer a participation in such Letter of Credit and each drawing thereunder
in an amount equal to the product of (i) the Pro Rata Revolving Share of such
Revolving Lender, times (ii) the Dollar Equivalent of the maximum amount
available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and the amount of such
drawing, respectively. For purposes of subsection 2.01(d), each Issuance of a
Letter of Credit shall be deemed to utilize the Revolving Loan Commitment of
each Revolving Lender by an amount equal to the amount of such participation.

               (b) In the event of any request for a drawing under a Letter of
Credit by the beneficiary or transferee thereof, the Issuer will promptly notify
the Company. The Company shall reimburse the Issuer prior to 11:00 a.m. (local
time), on each date that any amount is paid by the Issuer under any Letter of
Credit (each such date, an "Honor Date"), in an amount in Dollars equal to the
Dollar Equivalent of the amount so paid by the Issuer. In the event the Company
fails to reimburse the Issuer in Dollars for the Dollar Equivalent of the full
amount of any drawing under any Letter of Credit by 11:00 a.m. (local time) on
the Honor Date, the Issuer will promptly notify the Agent and the Agent will
promptly notify each Lender thereof, and the Company shall be deemed to have
requested that Base Rate Loans in an amount equal to such unreimbursed amount be
made by the Revolving Lenders to be disbursed on the Honor Date under such
Letter of Credit, subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the
Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment and subject to the conditions set forth in
Section 5.02. Any notice given by the Issuer or the Agent pursuant to this
subsection 3.03(b) may be oral if immediately confirmed in writing (including by
facsimile); provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not
affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

               (c) Each Revolving Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to
subsection 3.03(b) make available to the Agent for the account of the relevant
Issuer an amount in Dollars and in immediately available funds equal to its Pro
Rata Revolving Share of the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of the drawing,
whereupon the participating Revolving Lenders shall (subject to subsection
3.03(d)) each be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan consisting of a Base Rate
Loan to the Company in that amount. If any Revolving Lender so notified fails to
make available to the Agent for the account of the Issuer the amount of such
Revolving Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of the
drawing by no later than 12:00 noon (local time) on the Honor Date, then
interest shall accrue on such Revolving Lender's

                                       55
<PAGE>

obligation to make such payment, from the Honor Date to the date such Revolving
Lender makes such payment, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate
in effect from time to time during such period. The Agent will promptly give
notice of the occurrence of the Honor Date, but failure of the Agent to give any
such notice on the Honor Date or in sufficient time to enable any Revolving
Lender to effect such payment on such date shall not relieve such Revolving
Lender from its obligations under this Section 3.03.

               (d) With respect to any unreimbursed drawing that is not
converted into Revolving Loans consisting of Base Rate Loans to the Company in
whole or in part, because of the Company's failure to satisfy the conditions set
forth in Section 5.02 or for any other reason, the Company shall be deemed to
have incurred from the Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the Dollar Equivalent of the
amount of such drawing, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand
(together with interest) and shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to
the Base Rate, plus the Applicable Base Rate Margin, plus 2.0% per annum, and
each Revolving Lender's payment to the Issuer pursuant to subsection 3.03(c)
shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing
and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Revolving Lender in satisfaction
of its participation obligation under this Section 3.03.

               (e) Each Revolving Lender's obligation in accordance with this
Agreement to make the Revolving Loans or L/C Advances, as contemplated by this
Section 3.03, as a result of a drawing under a Letter of Credit, shall be
absolute and unconditional and without recourse to the Issuer and shall not be
affected by any circumstance, including (i) any set-off, counterclaim,
recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Lender may have against
the Issuer, the Company or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the
occurrence or continuance of a Default, an Event of Default or a Material
Adverse Effect; or (iii) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever,
whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each
Revolving Lender's obligation to make Revolving Loans under this Section 3.03 is
subject to the conditions set forth in Section 5.02.

         3.04 Repayment of Participations. (a) Upon (and only upon) receipt by
the Agent for the account of the Issuer of immediately available funds in
Dollars from the Company (i) in reimbursement of any payment made by the Issuer
under the Letter of Credit with respect to which any Revolving Lender has paid
the Agent for the account of the Issuer for such Revolving Lender's
participation in the Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 3.03 or (ii) in
payment of interest thereon, the Agent will promptly pay to each Revolving
Lender, in the same funds as those received by the Agent for the account of the
Issuer, the amount of such Revolving Lender's Pro Rata Revolving Share of such
funds, and the Issuer shall receive the amount of the Pro Rata Revolving Share
of such funds of any Revolving Lender that did not so pay the Agent for the
account of the Issuer.

               (b) If the Agent or the Issuer is required at any time to return
to the Company, or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian, or any
official in any Insolvency Proceeding, any portion of the payments made by the
Company to the Agent for the account of the Issuer pursuant to subsection
3.04(a) in reimbursement of a payment made under the Letter of Credit or
interest or fee thereon, each Revolving Lender shall, on demand of the Agent,
forthwith return to the Agent or the Issuer the amount of its Pro Rata Revolving
Share of any amounts so returned by the Agent or the Issuer plus interest
thereon from the date such demand is made to the date

                                       56
<PAGE>

such amounts are returned by such Revolving Lender to the Agent or the Issuer,
at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate in effect from time to time.

         3.05 Role of the Issuer. (a) Each Lender and the Company agree that, in
paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the Issuer shall not have any
responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft and
certificates expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or
inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of
the Person executing or delivering any such document.

               (b) No Agent-Related Person nor any of the respective
correspondents, participants or assignees of the Issuer shall be liable to any
Lender for: (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the
request or with the approval of the Lenders (including the Required Lenders or
Required Revolving Lenders, as applicable); (ii) any action taken or omitted in
the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due
execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any L/C-Related
Document.

               (c) The Company hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions
of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of
Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall
not, preclude the Company's pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have
against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. No
Agent-Related Person, nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or
assignees of the Issuer, shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters
described in clauses (i) through (vii) of Section 3.06; provided, however,
anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, that the Company may
have a claim against the Issuer, and the Issuer may be liable to the Company, to
the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential
or exemplary, damages suffered by the Company which the Company proves were
caused by the Issuer's willful misconduct or gross negligence or the Issuer's
willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it
by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with
the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in
limitation of the foregoing: (i) the Issuer may accept documents that appear on
their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation,
regardless of any notice or information to the contrary; and (ii) the Issuer
shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument
transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit
or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part,
which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.

         3.06 Obligations Absolute. The obligations of the Company under this
Agreement and any L/C-Related Document to reimburse the Issuer for a drawing
under a Letter of Credit, and to repay any L/C Borrowing and any drawing under a
Letter of Credit converted into Revolving Loans, shall be unconditional and
irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement and each such other L/C-Related Document under all circumstances,
including the following:

                    (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement
     or any L/C-Related Document;

                                       57
<PAGE>
                    (ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of,
     or in any other term of, all or any of the obligations of the Company in
     respect of any Letter of Credit or any other amendment or waiver of or any
     consent to departure from all or any of the L/C-Related Documents;

                    (iii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other
     right that the Company may have at any time against any beneficiary or any
     transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such
     beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the Issuer or any other
     Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions
     contemplated hereby or by the L/C-Related Documents or any unrelated
     transaction;

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

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

                    (vi) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any
     collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to
     departure from any other guarantee, for all or any of the obligations of
     the Company in respect of any Letter of Credit; or

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

         3.07 Cash Collateral Pledge. Upon (i) the request of the Agent, (A) if
the Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request on any Letter of
Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing hereunder, or (B) if,
as of the Revolving Termination Date, any Letters of Credit may for any reason
remain outstanding and partially or wholly undrawn, (ii) the occurrence of the
circumstances described in subsection 2.09(a) requiring the Company to Cash
Collateralize Letters of Credit, or (iii) the termination of the Aggregate
Revolving Loan Commitment, then, the Company shall immediately Cash
Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an amount in Dollars equal to the Dollar
Equivalent of the L/C Obligations.

         3.08 Letter of Credit Fees. (a) The Company shall pay to the Agent for
the account of each of the Revolving Lenders a letter of credit fee with respect
to the Letters of Credit equal to the Applicable Offshore Rate Margin times the
Dollar Equivalent of the average daily maximum amount available to be drawn of
the outstanding Letters of Credit, computed on a quarterly basis

                                       58
<PAGE>

in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter based upon Letters
of Credit outstanding for that quarter as calculated by the Agent. Such letter
of credit fees shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last
Business Day of each calendar quarter during which Letters of Credit are
outstanding, commencing on the first such quarterly date to occur after the
Second Restatement Date, through the Revolving Termination Date (or such later
date upon which the outstanding Letters of Credit shall expire), with the final
payment to be made on the Revolving Termination Date (or such later expiration
date).

               (b) The Company shall pay to the Issuer a letter of credit
fronting fee with respect to the Letters of Credit equal to the percentage
specified in the Fee Letter times the Dollar Equivalent of the average daily
maximum amount available to be drawn of the outstanding Letters of Credit,
computed on a quarterly basis in arrears based upon Letters of Credit
outstanding for that quarter as calculated by the Agent. Such letter of credit
fronting fee shall be due and payable on the last day of each calendar quarter.

               (c) The Company shall pay to the Issuer from time to time on
demand the normal issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees,
and other standard costs and charges, of such Issuer relating to letters of
credit as from time to time in effect.

         3.09 Applicability of ISP98 and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed
by the Issuer and the applicable Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued
(including any such agreement applicable to a Letter of Credit outstanding on
the date hereof), (a) the rules of the "International Standby Practices 1998"
published by the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice (or such
later version thereof as may be in effect at the time of issuance) ("ISP98")
shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit, and (b) the rules of the Uniform
Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as most recently published by the
International Chamber of Commerce (the "ICC") at the time of issuance (including
the ICC decision published by the Commission on Banking Technique and Practice
on April 6, 1998 regarding the European single currency (euro)) (the "UCP")
shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit. It is understood, however, that
the applicable Borrower may request that any particular Letter of Credit be
governed by either ISP98 or the UCP, as selected by such Borrower.

         3.10 Utilization of Offshore Currencies. In the case of a proposed
Issuance of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Offshore Currency, the
applicable Issuer shall be under no obligation to issue such Letter of Credit if
the applicable Issuer cannot issue Letters of Credit denominated in the
requested Offshore Currency, in which event the Issuer will give notice to the
Company no later than 10:30 a.m. (local time) on the third Business Day prior to
the date of such issuance that the Issuance in the requested Offshore Currency
is not then available. If the applicable Issuer shall have so notified the
Company that any such Issuance in a requested Offshore Currency is not then
available, then such requested Letter of Credit shall not be issued unless the
Company, by notice to the applicable Issuer not later than 5:00 p.m. (local
time) three Business Days prior to the requested date of such Issuance, requests
that the Letter of Credit be denominated in Dollars and issued in an equivalent
aggregate amount, in which case the Letter of Credit shall be so denominated and
issued.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                     TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

         4.01 Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by each Borrower to each Lender or
the Agent under this Agreement and any other Loan Document shall be made free
and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any Taxes. In addition,
each Borrower shall pay all Other Taxes.

               (b) If any Borrower shall be required by law to deduct or
withhold any Taxes, Other Taxes or Further Taxes from or in respect of any sum
payable hereunder to any Lender or the Agent, then:

                    (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that,
     after making all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions
     and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section),
     such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, receives and retains an
     amount equal to the sum it would have received and retained had no such
     deductions or withholdings been made;

                    (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions and
     withholdings;

                    (iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted or
     withheld to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance
     with applicable law; and

                    (iv) such Borrower shall also pay to each Lender or the
     Agent for the account of such Lender, at the time interest is paid, Further
     Taxes in the amount that the respective Lender specifies as necessary to
     preserve the after-tax yield the Lender would have received if such Taxes,
     Other Taxes or Further Taxes had not been imposed.

               (c) Each Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each
Lender and the Agent for the full amount of (i) Taxes, (ii) Other Taxes, and
(iii) Further Taxes in the amount that the respective Lender specifies as
necessary to preserve the after-tax yield the Lender would have received if such
Taxes, Other Taxes or Further Taxes had not been imposed, and any liability
(including penalties (except to the extent arising from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of the Agent or such Lender), interest, additions to tax and
expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes,
Other Taxes or Further Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. Payment under
this indemnification shall be made within 30 days after the date the Lender or
the Agent makes written demand therefor.

               (d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment by any Borrower
of Taxes, Other Taxes or Further Taxes, such Borrower shall furnish to each
Lender or the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing
payment thereof, or other evidence of payment satisfactory to such Lender or the
Agent.

               (e) If such Borrower is required to pay any amount to any Lender
or the Agent pursuant to subsection (b) or (c) of this Section, then such Lender
shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions)
to change the jurisdiction of its Lending Office so as to eliminate any such
additional payment by such Borrower which may thereafter

                                       60
<PAGE>

accrue, if such change in the sole judgment of such Lender is not otherwise
disadvantageous to such Lender.

         4.02 Illegality. (a) If any Lender determines that the introduction of
any Requirement of Law, or any change in any Requirement of Law, or in the
interpretation or administration of any Requirement of Law, has made it
unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental Authority has asserted
that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make
Offshore Rate Loans, then, on notice thereof by the Lender to the Company
through the Agent, any obligation of that Lender to make Offshore Rate Loans
shall be suspended until the Lender notifies the Agent and the Company that the
circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.

               (b) If a Lender determines that it is unlawful to maintain any
Offshore Rate Loan, the applicable Borrower shall, upon the receipt by the
Company of notice of such fact and demand from such Lender (with a copy to the
Agent), prepay in full such Offshore Rate Loans of that Lender then outstanding,
together with interest accrued thereon and amounts required under Section 4.04,
either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof, if the Lender may
lawfully continue to maintain such Offshore Rate Loans to such day, or
immediately, if the Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Offshore
Rate Loan. If a Borrower is required to so prepay any Offshore Rate Loan, then
concurrently with such prepayment, the Company (regardless of whether the
Company is the initial Borrower) shall borrow from the affected Lender, in the
amount of such repayment, a Base Rate Loan.

               (c) If the obligation of any Lender to make or maintain Offshore
Rate Loans has been so terminated or suspended, the Company may elect, by giving
notice to the Lender through the Agent that all Loans which would otherwise be
made by the Lender as Offshore Rate Loans shall be instead Base Rate Loans.

               (d) Before giving any notice to the Agent under this Section, the
affected Lender shall designate a different Lending Office with respect to its
Offshore Rate Loans if such designation will avoid the need for giving such
notice or making such demand and will not, in the judgment of the Lender, be
illegal or otherwise disadvantageous to the Lender.

         4.03 Increased Costs and Reduction of Return. (a) If any Lender
determines that, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change (other than
any change by way of imposition of or increase in reserve requirements included
in the calculation of the Offshore Rate) in or in the interpretation of any law
or regulation made after the Second Restatement Date or (ii) the compliance by
that Lender with any guideline or request from any central bank or other
Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be
any increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding
or maintaining any Offshore Rate Loans or participating in Letters of Credit or
Fronted Offshore Currency Loans, or, in the case of the Issuer, any increase in
the cost to the Issuer of agreeing to issue, issuing or maintaining any Letter
of Credit or of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any unpaid
drawing under any Letter of Credit, then such Borrower shall be liable for, and
shall from time to time, upon demand (with a copy of such demand to be sent to
the Agent), pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender, additional amounts
as are sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased costs.

                                       61
<PAGE>

               (b) If any Lender shall have determined that (i) the introduction
of any Capital Adequacy Regulation made after the Second Restatement Date, (ii)
any change in any Capital Adequacy Regulation made after the Second Restatement
Date, (iii) any change in the interpretation or administration of any Capital
Adequacy Regulation by any central bank or other Governmental Authority charged
with the interpretation or administration thereof made after the Second
Restatement Date, or (iv) compliance by the Lender (or its Lending Office) or
any corporation controlling the Lender with any Capital Adequacy Regulation,
affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be
maintained by the Lender or any corporation controlling the Lender and (taking
into consideration such Lender's or such corporation's policies with respect to
capital adequacy and such Lender's desired return on capital) determines that
the amount of such capital is increased as a consequence of its Commitment,
loans, credits or obligations under this Agreement, then, upon demand of such
Lender to the Company through the Agent, the applicable Borrower shall pay to
the Lender, from time to time as specified by the Lender, additional amounts
sufficient to compensate the Lender for such increase.

         4.04 Funding Losses. Each Borrower shall reimburse each Lender and hold
each Lender harmless from any loss or expense which the Lender may sustain or
incur as a consequence of:

               (a) the failure of such Borrower to make on a timely basis any
payment of principal of any Offshore Rate Loan;

               (b) the failure of such Borrower to borrow, continue or convert a
Loan after such Borrower has given (or is deemed to have given) a Notice of
Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/ Continuation;

               (c) the failure of such Borrower to make any prepayment in
accordance with any notice delivered under Section 2.10;

               (d) the prepayment (including pursuant to Section 2.11) or other
payment (including after acceleration thereof or pursuant to Section 2.09(c)) of
an Offshore Rate Loan on a day that is not the last day of the relevant Interest
Period; or

               (e) the automatic conversion under Section 2.04 of any Offshore
Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan on a day that is not the last day of the relevant
Interest Period;

including any such loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment
of funds obtained by it to maintain its Offshore Rate Loans or from fees payable
to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. For purposes of
calculating amounts payable by the Borrowers to the Lenders under this Section
and under subsection 4.03(a), each Offshore Rate Loan made by a Lender (and each
related reserve, special deposit or similar requirement) shall be conclusively
deemed to have been funded at the IBOR used in determining the Offshore Rate for
such Offshore Rate Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the
interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period,
whether or not such Offshore Rate Loan is in fact so funded.

                                       62
<PAGE>

         4.05 Inability to Determine Rates. If the Agent determines that for any
reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Offshore
Rate for an Applicable Currency for any requested Interest Period with respect
to a proposed Offshore Rate Loan, or that the Offshore Rate applicable pursuant
to subsection 2.13(a) for an Applicable Currency for any requested Interest
Period with respect to a proposed Offshore Rate Loan does not adequately and
fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding such Loan, the Agent will
promptly so notify the Company and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of
the Lenders to make or maintain Offshore Rate Loans hereunder in such Applicable
Currency shall be suspended until the Agent revokes such notice in writing. Upon
receipt of such notice, the Company may revoke any Notice of Borrowing or Notice
of Conversion/Continuation then submitted by it or any other Borrower. If the
Company does not revoke such Notice, then the Lenders shall make, convert or
continue the Loans, as proposed by the Company, in the amount specified in the
applicable notice submitted by the Company, but such Loans shall be made,
converted or continued as Base Rate Loans instead of Offshore Rate Loans, as the
case may be, and such Loans shall be assumed by the Company notwithstanding the
fact that the Loans may initially have been made to a Subsidiary Borrower.

         4.06 Certificates of Lenders. Any Lender claiming reimbursement or
compensation under this Article IV shall deliver to the Company (with a copy to
the Agent) contemporaneously with the demand in payment a certificate setting
forth in reasonable detail the amount payable to the Lender hereunder and such
certificate shall be conclusive and binding on the applicable Borrower in the
absence of manifest error.

         4.07 Substitution of Banks. Upon the receipt by the Company from any
Lender (an "Affected Lender") of a claim for compensation under Section 4.04, of
notice that it cannot make Offshore Rate Loans under Section 4.02, or of a claim
for Taxes or Further Taxes under Section 4.01, then the Agent, at the Company's
direction, shall: (i) request the Affected Lender to use good faith efforts to
obtain a replacement bank or financial institution satisfactory to the Company
to acquire and assume all or a ratable part of all of such Affected Lender's
Loans and Commitments at the face amount thereof (a "Replacement Lender"); (ii)
request one more of the other Lenders to acquire and assume all or part of such
Affected Lender's Loans and Commitments; or (iii) designate a Replacement
Lender. Any such designation of a Replacement Lender under clause (i) or (iii)
shall be subject to the prior written consent of the Agent (which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld).

         4.08 Survival. The agreements and obligations of the Borrowers in this
Article IV shall survive the payment of all other Obligations, and no Borrower
will have an obligation to pay any amount hereunder unless a demand is made
within 180 days after the date upon which the Agent's or applicable Lender's
right to reimbursement arises.

                                   ARTICLE V

and performance by the Company and its Subsidiaries of this Agreement and each

Oshkosh Group BV, Oshkosh European Holdings SL, the Company nor any other party
to any of the Acquisition Documents is in default in the performance of or

Foreign Subsidiaries) in connection with the Loan Documents (including the
offering and disclosure materials delivered by or on behalf of the Company to
the Lenders prior to the Second Restatement Date), contains any untrue statement
of a material fact or omits any material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances
under which they are made, not misleading as of the time when made or delivered.

expense of the Company at any time during normal business hours and without
advance notice; provided, further, that neither the Agent nor any Lender shall
conduct any environmental testing of any owned or leased facility of the Company
or any Subsidiary without the prior written consent of the Company, which shall
not unreasonably be withheld.

receive).

               (b) Upon the written request of the Agent or any Lender, the

agreement or instrument relating to any such Indebtedness or Contingent
Obligation, and such failure continues after the applicable grace or notice
period, if any, specified in the relevant document on the date of such failure
if the effect of such failure, event or condition is to cause, or to permit the
holder or holders of such Indebtedness or beneficiary or beneficiaries of such
Indebtedness (or a trustee or agent on behalf of such holder or holders or
beneficiary or beneficiaries) to cause such Indebtedness to be declared to be
due and payable, or to be required to be repurchased, prior to its stated

(iii) the Company or any ERISA Affiliate shall fail to pay when due, after the

                                       95
<PAGE>

     or any Subsidiary party thereto or the Company or any Subsidiary shall so
     state in writing or bring an action to limit its obligations or liabilities
     thereunder; or

                    (ii) any Collateral Document shall for any reason (other
     than pursuant to the terms thereof) cease to create a valid security
     interest in the Collateral purported to be covered thereby or such security

     security interest subject only to Permitted Liens.

Lenders,

               (a) declare the Commitment of each Lender to make Loans and any
obligation of the Issuer to Issue Letters of Credit to be terminated, whereupon
such Commitments and obligation shall be terminated;

               (b) declare an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of the
maximum aggregate amount that is or at any time thereafter may become available
for drawing under any outstanding Letters of Credit (whether or not any

the drafts or other documents required to draw under such Letters of Credit) to
be immediately due and payable, and declare the unpaid principal amount of all
outstanding Loans, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other
amounts owing or payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to be
immediately due and payable,

                                       96
<PAGE>

without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which
are hereby expressly waived by each Borrower; and

               (c) exercise on behalf of itself and the Lenders all rights and
remedies available to it and the Lenders under the Loan Documents or applicable
law;

provided, however, that upon the occurrence of any event specified in subsection
(f) or (g) of Section 9.01 (in the case of clause (i) of subsection (g) upon the
expiration of the 60-day period mentioned therein), the obligation of each
Lender to make Loans and any obligation of the Issuer to Issue Letters of Credit
shall automatically terminate and the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding
Loans and all interest and other amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become
due and payable without further act of the Agent, the Issuer or any Lender.

         9.03 Rights Not Exclusive. The rights provided for in this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other
rights, powers, privileges or remedies provided by law or in equity, or under
any other instrument, document or agreement now existing or hereafter arising.

                                    ARTICLE X

                                    THE AGENT

         10.01 Appointment and Authorization; "Agent". (a) Each Lender hereby
irrevocably (subject to Section 10.09) appoints, designates and authorizes the
Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement
and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties
as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other
Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this
Agreement or in any other Loan Document, the Agent shall not have any duties or
responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Agent
have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no
implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or
liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or
otherwise exist against the Agent. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing sentence, the use of the term "agent" in this Agreement with reference
to the Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or
express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law.
Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended
to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent
contracting parties.

               (b) Each Issuer shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect
to any Letters of Credit Issued by it and the documents associated therewith
until such time and except for so long as the Agent may agree at the request of
the Required Lenders to act for such Issuer with respect thereto; provided,
however, that such Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (i)
provided to the Agent in this Article X with respect to any acts taken or
omissions suffered by the Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit Issued by
it or proposed to be Issued by it and the application and agreements for letters
of credit pertaining to the Letters of Credit as fully as if the term "Agent",
as used in this Article X, included such Issuer with respect to such acts or
omissions, and (ii) as additionally provided in this Agreement with respect to
such Issuer.

                                       97
<PAGE>

         10.02 Delegation of Duties. The Agent may execute any of its duties
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees
or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all
matters pertaining to such duties. The Agent shall not be responsible for the
negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects with
reasonable care.

         10.03 Liability of Agent. None of the Agent-Related Persons shall (a)
be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in
connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions
contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct),
or (b) be responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recital,
statement, representation or warranty made by the Company or any Subsidiary or
Affiliate of the Company, or any officer thereof, contained in this Agreement or
in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other
document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agent under or in
connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for the value of
or title to any Collateral, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness,
enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or
for any failure of the Company or any other party to any Loan Document to
perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall
be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the
observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions
of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties,
books or records of the Company or any of the Company's Subsidiaries or
Affiliates.

         10.04 Reliance by Agent. (a) The Agent shall be entitled to rely, and
shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice,
consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone
message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be
genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person
or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel
to the Company), independent accountants and other experts selected by the
Agent. The Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any
action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first
receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems
appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its
satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may
be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The
Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from
acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a
request or consent of the Required Lenders and such request and any action taken
or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Lenders.

               (b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions
specified in Section 5.01, each Lender that has executed this Agreement shall be
deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each
document or other matter either sent by the Agent to such Lender for consent,
approval, acceptance or satisfaction, or required thereunder to be consented to
or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to such Lender.

         10.05 Notice of Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have
knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except
with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required
to be paid to the Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the Agent shall
have received written notice from a Lender or the Company referring to

                                       98
<PAGE>

this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that
such notice is a "notice of default". The Agent will notify the Lenders of its
receipt of any such notice. The Agent shall take such action with respect to
such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Required Lenders in
accordance with Article IX; provided, however, that unless and until the Agent
has received any such request, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to)
take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such
Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest
of the Lenders.

         10.06 Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that none of the
Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no
act by the Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the
Company and its Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to constitute any representation
or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender. Each Lender represents to
the Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related
Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate,
made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects,
operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the
Company and its Subsidiaries, the value of and title to any Collateral, and all
applicable bank regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated
hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend
credit to the Company hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will,
independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on
such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time,
continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or
not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make
such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business,
prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and
creditworthiness of the Company. Except for notices, reports and other documents
expressly herein required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent, the Agent
shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit
or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property,
financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Company which may come
into the possession of any of the Agent-Related Persons.

         10.07 Indemnification of Agent. Whether or not the transactions
contemplated hereby are consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify upon demand the
Agent-Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the
Company and without limiting the obligation of the Company to do so), in
accordance with such Lender's Pro Rata Share of all Loans and Commitments, from
and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided, however, that no
Lender shall be liable for the payment to the Agent-Related Persons of any
portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting from such Person's gross
negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each
Lender shall reimburse the Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs
or out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs) incurred by the Agent in
connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration,
modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal
proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or
responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document
contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Agent is not
reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Company. The undertaking in
this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the
resignation or replacement of the Agent.

                                       99

         10.08 Agent in Individual Capacity. BofA and its Affiliates may make
loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from,
acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust,
financial advisory, underwriting or other business with the Company and its
Subsidiaries and Affiliates as though BofA were not the Agent or an Issuer
hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders
acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, BofA or its Affiliates may
receive information regarding the Company or its Affiliates (including
information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the
Company or such Subsidiary) and acknowledge that the Agent shall be under no
obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Loans, BofA
shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender
and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent or an Issuer.

         10.09 Successor Agent. The Agent may, and at the request of the
Required Lenders shall, resign as Agent upon 30 days' notice to the Lenders. If
the Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from
among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders subject, so long as no Event
of Default has occurred and is then continuing, to the consent of the Company,
which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If no successor agent is
appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Agent, the Agent
may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the Company, a successor
agent from among the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as
successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights,
powers and duties of the retiring Agent and the term "Agent" shall mean such
successor agent and the retiring Agent's appointment, powers and duties as Agent
shall be terminated. After any retiring Agent's resignation hereunder as Agent,
the provisions of this Article X and Sections 11.04 and 11.05 shall inure to its
benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent
under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Agent by
the date which is 30 days following a retiring Agent's notice of resignation,
the retiring Agent's resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective
and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the Agent hereunder until
such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided
for above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, BofA may not be removed as
the Agent at the request of the Required Lenders unless BofA shall also
simultaneously be replaced as an "Issuer" (if any letters of credit Issued by
BofA are then outstanding) hereunder pursuant to documentation in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to BofA.

         10.10 Withholding Tax. (a) (i) If any Lender is a "foreign corporation,
partnership or trust" within the meaning of the Code and such Lender claims
exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. withholding tax under Sections 1441 or
1442 of the Code, such Lender agrees with and in favor of the Agent and the
Company, to deliver to the Agent and the Company:

                    (A) if such Lender claims an exemption from, or a reduction
     of, withholding tax under a United States tax treaty, two properly
     completed and executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN before the payment of any
     interest in the first calendar year and before the payment of any interest
     in each third succeeding calendar year during which interest may be paid
     under this Agreement;

                    (B) if such Lender claims that interest paid under this
     Agreement is exempt from United States withholding tax because it is
     effectively connected with a

                                      100
<PAGE>

     United States trade or business of such Lender, two properly completed and
     executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI before the payment of any interest is
     due in the first taxable year of such Lender and in each succeeding taxable
     year of such Lender during which interest may be paid under this Agreement;
     and

                    (C) such other form or forms as may be required under the
     Code or other laws of the United States as a condition to exemption from,
     or reduction of, United States withholding tax.

Such Lender agrees to promptly notify the Agent and the Company of any change in
circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or
reduction.

               (ii) If any foreign Lender claims exemption from U.S. federal
withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to
payments of "portfolio interest", such Lender agrees with and in favor of the
Agent and the Company to deliver to the Agent and the Company a Form W-8, or any
subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto (and, if such Lender delivers
a Form W-8, a certificate representing that such Lender is not a "bank" for
purposes of Section 881(c) of the Code, is not a 10-percent shareholder (within
the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code) of the Company and is not a
controlled foreign corporation related to the Company (within the meaning of
Section 864(d)(4) of the Code)).

               (b) If any Lender claims exemption from, or reduction of,
withholding tax under a United States tax treaty by providing IRS Form W-8BEN
and such Lender sells, assigns, grants a participation in, or otherwise
transfers all or part of the Obligations of the Company to such Lender, such
Lender agrees to notify the Agent of the percentage amount in which it is no
longer the beneficial owner of Obligations of the Company to such Lender. To the
extent of such percentage amount, the Agent will treat such Lender's IRS Form
W-8BEN as no longer valid.

               (c) If any Lender claiming exemption from United States
withholding tax by filing IRS Form W-8ECI with the Agent sells, assigns, grants
a participation in, or otherwise transfers all or part of the Obligations of the
Company to such Lender, such Lender agrees to undertake sole responsibility for
complying with the withholding tax requirements imposed by Sections 1441 and
1442 of the Code.

               (d) If any Lender is entitled to a reduction in the applicable
withholding tax, the Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender
an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax after taking into account
such reduction. However, if the forms or other documentation required by
subsection (a) of this Section are not delivered to the Agent, then the Agent
may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender not providing such forms
or other documentation an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax
imposed by Sections 1441 and 1442 of the Code, without reduction.

               (e) If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority of the United
States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Agent did not properly
withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the
appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed, or because such
Lender failed to notify the Agent of a change in

                                      101
<PAGE>

circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding
tax ineffective, or for any other reason) such Lender shall indemnify the Agent
fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Agent as tax or
otherwise, including penalties and interest, and including any taxes imposed by
any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Agent under this Section,
together with all costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs). The obligation
of the Lenders under this subsection shall survive the payment of all
Obligations and the resignation or replacement of the Agent.

         10.11 Collateral Matters. (a) The Agent is authorized on behalf of all
the Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from the
Lenders, from time to time to take any action with respect to any Collateral or
the Collateral Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain
perfected the security interest in and Liens upon the Collateral granted
pursuant to the Collateral Documents.

               (b) The Lenders irrevocably authorize the Agent, at its option
and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by the Agent upon
any Collateral (i) upon termination of the Commitments and payment in full of
all Loans and all other Obligations known to the Agent and payable under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document; (ii) constituting property sold or to be
sold or disposed of as part of or in connection with any disposition permitted
hereunder; (iii) constituting property in which the Company or any Subsidiary
owned no interest at the time the Lien was granted or at any time thereafter;
(iv) constituting property leased to the Company or any Subsidiary under a lease
which has expired or been terminated in a transaction permitted under this
Agreement or is about to expire and which has not been, and is not intended by
the Company or such Subsidiary to be, renewed or extended; (v) consisting of an
instrument evidencing Indebtedness or other debt instrument, if the indebtedness
evidenced thereby has been paid in full; or (vi) if approved, authorized or
ratified in writing by the Required Lenders or all the Lenders, as the case may
be, as provided in subsection 11.01(f). Upon request by the Agent at any time,
the Lenders will confirm in writing the Agent's authority to release particular
types or items of Collateral pursuant to this subsection 10.11(b), provided that
the absence of any such confirmation for whatever reason shall not affect the
Agent's rights under this Section 10.11.

               (c) Each Lender agrees with and in favor of each other (which
agreement shall not be for the benefit of the Company or any Subsidiary) that
the Company's obligation to such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents is not and shall not be secured by any real property collateral now or
hereafter acquired by such Lender other than the real property described in the
Mortgages.

               (d) While an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the
Agent shall deliver a "Payment Blockage Notice" (as defined in the Senior
Subordinated Indenture) to the Trustee under the Senior Subordinated Indenture
at the direction or with the consent of the Required Lenders.

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

         11.01 Amendments and Waivers. Except as expressly provided in the
proviso in Section 8.04(d)(iv) or in Section 11.12, no amendment or waiver of
any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no consent with
respect to any departure by the Company or any applicable Subsidiary therefrom,
shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the
Required Lenders (or by the Agent at the written request of the Required
Lenders) and the Company and acknowledged by the Agent, and then any such waiver
or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific
purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such waiver, amendment, or
consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all the Lenders directly affected
thereby and the Company and acknowledged by the Agent, do any of the following:

               (a) increase or extend the Commitment of any Lender (or reinstate
any Commitment terminated pursuant to Section 9.02) except for increases
pursuant to Section 2.09(c);

               (b) postpone or delay any date fixed by this Agreement or any
other Loan Document for any payment of principal, interest, fees or other

Document including without limitation any mandatory prepayment required pursuant
to subsection 2.11(b);

               (c) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified
herein on any Loan, or (subject to clause (iii) below) any fees or other amounts
payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document;

               (d) change the percentage of the Commitments or of the aggregate
unpaid principal amount of the Loans which is required for the Lenders or any of
them to take any action hereunder or reduce the percentage specified in the
definition of "Required Lenders" or, without the consent of each Revolving
Lender, "Required Revolving Lenders"; or

               (e) amend this Section, or Section 2.18, or any provision herein
providing for consent or other action by all Lenders;

               (f) discharge all or substantially all of the Guarantors, or
release all or substantially all of the Collateral except as otherwise may be
provided in the Collateral Documents or except where the consent of the Required
Lenders only is specifically provided for;

and, provided further, that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in
writing and signed by the Issuer in addition to the Required Lenders or all the
Lenders, as the case may be, affect the rights or duties of the Issuer under
this Agreement or any L/C-Related Document relating to any Letter of Credit
Issued or to be Issued by it, (ii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless
in writing and signed by the Agent in addition to the Required Lenders or all
the Lenders, as the case may be, affect the rights or duties of the Agent under
this Agreement or any

                                      103
<PAGE>

other Loan Document, (iii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in
writing and signed by the Swing Line Lender in addition to the Required Lenders
or all the Lenders, as the case may be, affect the rights or duties of the Swing
Line Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (iv) no amendment,
waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Offshore Currency

clauses (a) through (f) above, no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless
signed by Lenders holding a majority of a particular Loan (determined by
reference to outstanding Commitments or, if no Commitments are then outstanding,
outstanding principal amount), affect the rights of such Lenders to receive or
defer payment in respect of such Loan, and (vi) the Fee Letter may be amended,
or rights or privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed by the parties
thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the execution and delivery of all
documentation required by Section 2.09(c) to be delivered in connection with an
increase to the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, this Agreement shall be
deemed amended without further action by any party to reflect, as applicable,
the new Lenders and their new Revolving Loan Commitments and any increase in the
Revolving Loan Commitment of any existing Lender.

         11.02 Notices. (a) All notices, requests, consents, approvals, waivers
and other communications shall be in writing (including, unless the context
expressly otherwise provides, by facsimile transmission, provided that any
matter transmitted by the Company by facsimile (i) shall be immediately
confirmed by a telephone call to the recipient at the number specified on
Schedule 11.02, and (ii) shall be followed promptly by delivery of a hard copy
original thereof) and mailed, faxed or delivered, to the address or facsimile
number specified for notices on Schedule 11.02; or, as directed to the Company
or the Agent, to such other address as shall be designated by such party in a
written notice to the other parties, and as directed to any other party, at such
other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the
Company and the Agent.

               (b) All such notices, requests and communications shall, when
transmitted by overnight delivery, or faxed, be effective when delivered for
overnight (next-day) delivery, or transmitted in legible form by facsimile
machine, respectively, or if mailed or delivered, upon delivery; except that
notices pursuant to Article II, III or X to the Agent shall not be effective
until actually received by the Agent, and notices pursuant to Article III to any
Issuer shall not be effective until actually received by such Issuer at the
address specified on Schedule 11.02.

               (c) Any agreement of the Agent and the Lenders herein to receive
certain notices by telephone or facsimile is solely for the convenience and at
the request of the Company. The Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely
on the authority of any Person identifying himself or herself as, and reasonably
appearing to be, a Person authorized by the Company to give such notice and the
Agent and the Lenders shall not have any liability to the Company or other
Person on account of any action taken or not taken by the Agent or the Lenders
in good faith in reliance upon such telephonic or facsimile notice. The
obligation of the Company to repay the Loans and L/C Obligations shall not be
affected in any way or to any extent by any failure by the Agent and the Lenders
to receive written confirmation of any telephonic or facsimile notice or the
receipt by the Agent and the Lenders of a confirmation

                                      104
<PAGE>

which is at variance with the terms understood by the Agent and the Lenders to
be contained in the telephonic or facsimile notice.

         11.03 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no
delay in exercising, on the part of the Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy,
power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
right, remedy, power or privilege.

         11.04 Costs and Expenses. The Company shall:

               (a) whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are
consummated, pay or reimburse BofA (including in its capacity as Agent and an
Issuer) and the Arranger within five Business Days after demand (subject to
subsection 5.01(e)) for all costs and expenses incurred by BofA (including in
its capacity as Agent and Issuer) and the Arranger in connection with the
development, preparation, delivery, administration, syndication and execution
of, and any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification to (in each case,
whether or not consummated), this Agreement, any Loan Document and any other
documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation of
the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including reasonable Attorney
Costs incurred by BofA (including in its capacity as Agent and an Issuer) and
the Arranger with respect thereto;

               (b) pay or reimburse the Agent, the Arranger and each Lender
within five Business Days after demand (subject to subsection 5.01(e)) for all
costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs) incurred by them in connection
with the enforcement, attempted enforcement, or preservation of any rights or
remedies under this Agreement or any other Loan Document during the existence of
an Event of Default or after acceleration of the Loans (including in connection
with any "workout" or restructuring regarding the Loans, and including in any
Insolvency Proceeding or appellate proceeding); and

               (c) pay or reimburse BofA (including in its capacity as Agent)
within five Business Days after demand (subject to subsection 5.01(e)) for all
reasonable appraisal (including the allocated cost of internal appraisal
services), audit, environmental inspection and review (including the allocated
cost of such internal services), search and filing costs, fees and expenses,
incurred or sustained by BofA (including in its capacity as Agent) in connection
with the matters referred to under subsections (a) and (b) of this Section.

         11.05 Company Indemnification. (a) The Company shall indemnify, defend
and hold the Agent-Related Persons, and each Lender and each of its respective
officers, directors, employees, counsel, agents and attorneys-in-fact (each, an
"Indemnified Person") harmless from and against any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
charges, expenses and disbursements (including Attorney Costs) of any kind or
nature whatsoever which may at any time (including at any time following
repayment of the Loans, the termination of the Letters of Credit and the
termination, resignation or replacement of the Agent or replacement of any
Lender or assignment by any Lender of its Loans or Commitments) be imposed on,
incurred by or asserted against any Indemnified Person arising out of this
Agreement or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, or the
transactions

                                      105
<PAGE>

contemplated hereby, or any action taken or omitted by any such Person under or
in connection with any of the foregoing, including with respect to any
investigation, litigation or proceeding (including any Insolvency Proceeding or
appellate proceeding) related to or arising out of this Agreement or the Loans
or Letters of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof or related to any
Offshore Currency transactions entered into in connection herewith, whether or
not any Indemnified Person is a party thereto (all the foregoing, collectively,
the "Indemnified Liabilities"); provided, that the Company shall have no
obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Person with respect to Indemnified
Liabilities resulting from (i) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
such Indemnified Person or (ii) any proceeding initiated by the Agent against
any Lender (except to the extent arising from a breach by such Lender of its
obligations hereunder) or by any Lender against the Agent or any other Lender
(except to the extent arising from a breach by the Agent or such Lender, as the
case may be, of its obligations hereunder). The agreements in this Section shall
survive payment of all other Obligations.

               (b) (i) The Company shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless
each Indemnified Person, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, charges, expenses
or disbursements (including Attorney Costs and the allocated cost of internal
environmental audit or review services), which may be incurred by or asserted
against such Indemnified Person in connection with or arising out of any pending
or threatened investigation, litigation or proceeding, or any action taken by
any Person, with respect to any Environmental Claim arising out of or related to
any property, whether or not subject to a Mortgage in favor of the Agent or any
Lender, or arising out of or related to any operations of the Company or any
Subsidiary. No action taken by legal counsel chosen by the Agent or any Lender
in defending against any such investigation, litigation or proceeding or
requested remedial, removal or response action shall vitiate or any way impair
the Company's obligation and duty hereunder to indemnify and hold harmless the
Agent and each Lender.

               (ii) In no event shall any site visit, observation, or testing by
the Agent or any Lender (or any contractee of the Agent or any Lender) be deemed
a representation or warranty that Hazardous Materials are or are not present in,
on, or under, the site, or that there has been or shall be compliance with any
Environmental Law. Neither the Company nor any other Person is entitled to rely
on any site visit, observation, or testing by the Agent or any Lender. Neither
the Agent nor any Lender owes any duty of care to protect the Company or any
other Person against, or to inform the Company or any other party of, any
Hazardous Materials or any other adverse condition affecting any site or
property. The Agent or any Lender may, at its discretion, disclose to the
Company or any other Person any report or findings made as a result of, or in
connection with, any site visit, observation, or testing by the Agent or any
Lender. The Company understands and agrees that the Agent and the Lenders make
no warranty or representation to the Company or any other Person regarding the
truth, accuracy or completeness of any such report or findings that may be
disclosed. The Company also understands that, depending upon the results of any
site visit, observation or testing by the Agent or any Lender and disclosed to
the Company, the Company may have a legal obligation to notify one or more
environmental agencies of the results and that such reporting requirements are
site-specific and are to be evaluated by the Company without advice or
assistance from the Agent or any Lender.

                                      106
<PAGE>

               (c) The obligations in this Section shall survive payment of all
other Obligations. At the election of any Indemnified Person, the Company shall
defend such Indemnified Person using legal counsel satisfactory to such
Indemnified Person in such Person's sole discretion, at the sole cost and
expense of the Company. All amounts owing under this Section shall be paid
within 30 days after demand.

         11.06 Marshalling; Payments Set Aside. Neither the Agent nor the
Lenders shall be under any obligation to marshall any assets in favor of any
Borrower or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the
Obligations. To the extent that any Borrower makes a payment to the Agent or the
Lenders, or the Agent or the Lenders exercise their right of set-off, and such
payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof are subsequently
invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required
(including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Agent or such Lender
in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in
connection with any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise, then (a) to the extent
of such recovery the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be
satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such
payment had not been made or such set-off had not occurred, and (b) each Lender
severally agrees to pay to the Agent upon demand its pro rata share of any
amount so recovered from or repaid by the Agent.

         11.07 Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns, except that the Company may not assign or transfer any
of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written
consent of the Agent and each Lender.

         11.08 Assignments, Participations, etc. (a) Any Lender may, with the
written consent of the Company at all times other than during the existence of
an Event of Default and the Agent, the Swing Line Lender, the Offshore Currency
Fronting Lender and, in respect of assignments of Revolving Loans or a Revolving
Loan Commitment, the Issuer, which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld
or delayed, at any time assign and delegate to one or more Eligible Assignees
(each an "Assignee") all, or any part of all, of the Loans, the Commitments, the
L/C Obligations and the other rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder,
in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 or, if less, the total amount of such Lender's
outstanding Loans and/or Commitments (provided that (x) no written consent of
the Company, the Agent, the Swing Line Lender, the Offshore Currency Fronting
Lender or the Issuer shall be required in connection with any assignment and
delegation by a Lender to an Eligible Assignee that is a Lender or an Affiliate
of such Lender or any Approved Fund and (y) no consent of the Swing Line Lender,
the Offshore Currency Fronting Lender or the Issuer shall be required in respect
of any assignment and delegation consisting solely of Term Loans); provided,
however, that the Company and the Agent may continue to deal solely and directly
with such Lender in connection with the interest so assigned to an Assignee
until (i) written notice of such assignment, together with payment instructions,
addresses and related information with respect to the Assignee, shall have been
given to the Company and the Agent by such Lender and the Assignee; (ii) such
Lender and its Assignee shall have delivered to the Company and the Agent an
Assignment and Acceptance in the form of Exhibit D ("Assignment and Acceptance")
together with any Note or Notes subject to such assignment and (iii) the
assignor Lender or Assignee has paid to the Agent a processing fee in the amount
of $3,500; provided, that in the case of contemporaneous assignments by a

                                      107
<PAGE>

Lender to more than one fund managed by the same investment advisor, only a
single fee of $3,500 shall be payable for all such contemporaneous assignments.

               (b) From and after the date that the Agent notifies the assignor
Lender that it has received (and, if required, provided its consent with respect
to) an executed Assignment and Acceptance and payment of the above-referenced
processing fee, (i) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the
extent that rights and obligations hereunder (including without limitation any
obligations under Section 10.10) have been assigned to it pursuant to such
Assignment and Acceptance, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender
under the Loan Documents, and (ii) the assignor Lender shall, to the extent that
rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been
assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights
and be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents.

               (c) Within five Business Days after its receipt of notice by the
Agent that it has received an executed Assignment and Acceptance and payment of
the processing fee, (and, if required, provided that it consents to such
assignment in accordance with subsection 11.08(a)), the Company shall execute
and deliver to the Agent new Notes evidencing such Assignee's assigned Loans and
Commitment and, if the assignor Lender has retained a portion of its Loans and
its Commitment, replacement Notes in the principal amount of the Loans retained
by the assignor Lender (such Notes to be in exchange for, but not in payment of,
the Notes held by such Lender). Immediately upon each Assignee's making its
processing fee payment under the Assignment and Acceptance, this Agreement shall
be deemed to be amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to
reflect the addition of the Assignee and the resulting adjustment of the
Commitments arising therefrom. The Commitment allocated to each Assignee shall
reduce such Commitments of the assigning Lender pro tanto.

               (d) The Agent shall maintain a copy of each Assignment and
Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and
addresses of the Lenders and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the
Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time. The entries in such register
shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Company, the
Agent and the Lenders shall treat each person whose name is recorded in such
register as the owner of the Commitments and the Loans recorded therein for all
purposes of this Agreement. The register shall be available for inspection by
the Company, any Lender and their representatives, at any reasonable time and
from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

               (e) Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more commercial
banks or other Persons not Affiliates of the Company (a "Participant")
participating interests in any Loans, the Commitment of that Lender and the
other interests of that Lender (the "originating Lender") hereunder and under
the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that (i) the originating Lender's
obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the originating
Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations,
(iii) the Company, each Issuer and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and
directly with the originating Lender in connection with the originating Lender's
rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and
(iv) no Lender shall transfer or grant any participating interest under which
the Participant has rights to approve any amendment to, or any consent or waiver
with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except to the extent
such amendment, consent or waiver would require unanimous consent of the Lenders
as

                                      108
<PAGE>

described in clause (a) (but only in respect of any increase of any Commitment
of any Originating Lender), (b), (c) or (f) of the first proviso to Section
11.01. In the case of any such participation, the Participant shall be entitled
to the benefit of Sections 4.01, 4.03 and 11.05 as though it were also a Lender
hereunder, and if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and unpaid,
or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the
right of set-off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under
this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest
were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement.

               (f) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, (i)
any Lender may at any time create a security interest in, or pledge, all or any
portion of its rights under and interest in this Agreement and the Notes held by
it in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the
FRB or U.S. Treasury Regulation 31 CFR ss.203.14, and such Federal Reserve Bank
may enforce such pledge or security interest in any manner permitted under
applicable law and (ii) any Lender that is a fund that invests in bank loans
may, without the consent of the Agent or the Company, pledge all or any portion
of its rights under and interest in this Agreement to any trustee or to any
other representative of holders of obligations owed or securities issued by such
fund as security for such obligations or securities; provided, that any transfer
to any Person upon the enforcement of such pledge or security interest may only
be made subject to Section 11.08.

         11.09 Confidentiality. Each Lender agrees to take and to cause its
Affiliates to take normal and reasonable precautions and exercise due care to
maintain the confidentiality of all information provided to it by the Company or
any Subsidiary, or by the Agent on the Company's or such Subsidiary's behalf,
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and neither it nor any of its
Affiliates shall use any such information other than in connection with or in
enforcement of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or in connection with
other business now or hereafter existing or contemplated with the Company or any
Subsidiary; except to the extent such information (i) was or becomes generally
available to the public other than as a result of disclosure by the Lender or
its Affiliates, or (ii) was or becomes available on a non-confidential basis
from a source other than the Company, provided that such source is not bound by
a confidentiality agreement with the Company known to the Lender; provided,
however, that any Lender may disclose such information (A) at the request or
pursuant to any requirement of any Governmental Authority to which the Lender is
subject or in connection with an examination of such Lender by any such
authority; (B) pursuant to subpoena or other court process; (C) when required to
do so in accordance with the provisions of any applicable Requirement of Law;
(D) to the extent reasonably required in connection with any litigation or
proceeding involving the Company to which the Agent, any Lender or their
respective Affiliates may be party; (E) to the extent reasonably required in
connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan
Document; (F) to such Lender's independent auditors and other professional
advisors; (G) to any Participant or Assignee, actual or potential, provided that
such Person agrees in writing to keep such information confidential to the same
extent required of the Lenders hereunder; (H) as to any Lender or its Affiliate,
as expressly permitted under the terms of any other document or agreement
regarding confidentiality to which the Company or any Subsidiary is party or is
deemed party with such Lender or such Affiliate; (I) to

                                      109
<PAGE>

its Affiliates, provided that such Person is advised of the confidentiality
requirements set forth herein; and (J) to the National Association of Insurance
Commissioners or any similar organization or any nationally recognized rating
agency that requires access to information about such Lender's investment
portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender.

         11.10 Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders
provided by law, if an Event of Default exists or the Loans have been
accelerated, each Lender is authorized at any time and from time to time,
without prior notice to any Borrower, any such notice being waived by each
Borrower 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 by, and other indebtedness at any time owing by, such Lender to or for
the credit or the account of such Borrower against any and all Obligations owing
to such Lender, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not the
Agent or such Lender shall have made demand under this Agreement or any Loan
Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured. Each
Lender agrees promptly to notify the Company and the Agent after any such
set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure
to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and
application.

         11.11 Automatic Debits of Fees. With respect to any commitment fee,
arrangement fee, letter of credit fee or other fee, or any other cost or expense
(including Attorney Costs) due and payable to the Agent, any Issuer, BofA or the
Arranger under the Loan Documents, the Company hereby irrevocably authorizes
BofA to debit any deposit account of the Company with BofA in an amount such
that the aggregate amount debited from all such deposit accounts does not exceed
such fee or other cost or expense; provided, that so long as no Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, BofA has given notice to the Company thereof not
later than 9:00 a.m. (local time) on the date of such debit. If there are
insufficient funds in such deposit accounts to cover the amount of the fee or
other cost or expense then due, such debits will be reversed so as not to create
an overdraft (in whole or in part, in BofA's sole discretion) and such amount
not debited shall be deemed to be unpaid. No such debit under this Section shall
be deemed a set-off.

         11.12 Supplements to Schedules. The Company and its Subsidiaries may,
within 120 days after the Second Restatement Date, amend or supplement Schedules
6.10, 6.12, 6.16, 6.17, 6.18, 7.04, 8.01 in order to accurately and completely
reflect the information required to be included therein as a result of the
Geesink Acquisition by delivering (effective upon receipt) to the Agent and each
Lender a copy of such revised Schedule or Schedules which shall (i) be dated the
date of delivery, (ii) be certified by a Responsible Officer as true, complete
and correct as of such date and as delivered in replacement for the
corresponding Schedule or Schedules previously in effect, and (iii) show in
reasonable detail (by blacklining or other appropriate graphic means) the
changes from each such corresponding predecessor Schedule. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents,
in the event that the Required Lenders determine based upon such revised
Schedule (whether individually or in the aggregate or cumulatively) that there
has been a Material Adverse Effect since the Second Restatement Date, the
Lenders shall have no further obligation to fund additional Loans hereunder.

                                      110
<PAGE>

         11.13 Notification of Addresses, Lending Offices, Etc. Each Lender
shall notify the Agent in writing of any changes in the address to which notices
to the Lender should be directed, of addresses of any Lending Office, of payment
instructions in respect of all payments to be made to it hereunder and of such
other administrative information as the Agent shall reasonably request.

         11.14 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an
original, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to
constitute but one and the same instrument.

         11.15 Severability. The illegality or unenforceability of any provision
of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder shall not in
any way affect or impair the legality or enforceability of the remaining
provisions of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder.

         11.16 No Third Parties Benefited. This Agreement is made and entered
into for the sole protection and legal benefit of the Borrowers, the Lenders,
the Agent and the Agent-Related Persons, and their permitted successors and
assigns, and no other Person shall be a direct or indirect legal beneficiary of,
or have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

         11.17 Governing Law and Jurisdiction. (a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE NOTES
SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE
STATE OF ILLINOIS (WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PROVISIONS THEREOF);
PROVIDED THAT THE BORROWERS, THE AGENT AND THE LENDERS SHALL RETAIN ALL RIGHTS
ARISING UNDER FEDERAL LAW.

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

         11.18 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE BORROWERS, THE LENDERS AND THE AGENT
EACH WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF
ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENTS, OR THE TRANSACTIONS

                                      111
<PAGE>

CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR OTHER LITIGATION OF
ANY TYPE BROUGHT BY ANY OF THE PARTIES AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY OR ANY
AGENT-RELATED PERSON, PARTICIPANT OR ASSIGNEE, WHETHER WITH RESPECT TO CONTRACT
CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, OR OTHERWISE. THE BORROWERS, THE LENDERS AND THE AGENT EACH
AGREE THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE TRIED BY A COURT TRIAL
WITHOUT A JURY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT
THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IS WAIVED BY OPERATION OF THIS SECTION
AS TO ANY ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER PROCEEDING WHICH SEEKS, IN WHOLE OR IN
PART, TO CHALLENGE THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY PROVISION HEREOF OR THEREOF. THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO
ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS
AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.

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

         11.20 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the other Loan
Documents, embodies the entire agreement and understanding among the Borrowers,
the Lenders and the Agent, and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous
agreements and understandings of such Persons, verbal or written, relating to
the subject matter hereof and thereof.

         11.21 Second Restatement Date. The Company, each Lender and the Agent
agree that on the Second Restatement Date the following transactions shall be
deemed to occur automatically, without further action by any party hereto:

               (a) The Prior Credit Agreement shall be deemed to be amended and
restated in its entirety in the form of this Agreement.

                                      112
<PAGE>

               (b) Notwithstanding any contrary provision contained in this
Agreement or in any Loan Document, each Letter of Credit which is then
outstanding under the Prior Credit Agreement and identified on Schedule 1.01
hereto (each an "Existing Letter of Credit") shall be deemed a Letter of Credit
issued and outstanding pursuant to Article III of this Agreement and each
Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally
purchased and received from the Issuer, without recourse, representation or
warranty, an undivided participation interest equal to its pro-rata share of the
face amount of each Existing Letter of Credit and each draw paid by such Issuer
thereunder.

         The Company, each Lender, and the Agent agree that (i) the restatement
transactions provided in the foregoing sentence shall not be effective until the
execution of this Agreement by all of the parties hereto and the satisfaction of
the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.01 hereof; (ii) all terms and
conditions of the Prior Credit Agreement which are amended and restated by this
Agreement shall remain effective until such amendment and restatement becomes
effective hereunder, and thereafter shall continue to be effective only as
amended and restated by this Agreement and (iii) the representations, warranties
and covenants set forth herein shall become effective concurrently with the
execution of this Agreement by all of the parties hereto.

         11.22 Notes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, the Borrower and each Lender which is a party to the Prior Credit
Agreement agree that, no new Notes will be issued hereunder with respect to Term
Loan A and the Revolving Loans and that each Term Loan A Note and Revolving Loan
Note issued to it under the Prior Credit Agreement shall remain outstanding and
shall evidence the applicable Lender's Loans hereunder with respect to such Term
Loan A and Revolving Loans.

         11.23 Return of Notes. Each Lender which was a party to the Original
Credit Agreement agrees that it will promptly return to the Company for
cancellation any "Notes" issued to it under the Original Credit Agreement.

         11.24 Collateral Documents. Each Lender hereby consents to (and
authorizes the Agent to execute on the Second Restatement Date) such amendment,
reaffirmation and joinder agreements with respect to the Collateral Documents as
may be satisfactory to the Agent.

                                  ARTICLE XII

                                COMPANY GUARANTY

         12.01 The Guaranty. In order to induce the Lenders to enter into this
Agreement and to extend credit hereunder and in recognition of the direct
benefits to be received by the Company from the proceeds of the Loans and the
issuance of the Letters of Credit, the Company hereby agrees with the Lenders as
follows: the Company hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees as
primary obligor and not merely as surety the full and prompt payment when due,
whether upon maturity, acceleration or otherwise, of any and all of the
Guaranteed Obligations of the Subsidiary Borrowers to the Guaranteed Creditors.
If any or all of the Guaranteed

                                      113
<PAGE>

Obligations of such Borrowers to the Guaranteed Creditors becomes due and
payable hereunder, the Company unconditionally promises to pay such indebtedness
to the Agent and/or the Lenders, on demand, together with any and all expenses
which may be incurred by the Agent or the Lenders in collecting any of the
Guaranteed Obligations. If claim is ever made upon any Guaranteed Creditor for
repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received in payment or on account
of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and any of the aforesaid payees repays all
or part of said amount by reason of (i) any judgment, decree or order of any
court or administrative body having jurisdiction over such payee or any of its
property or (ii) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by such
payee with any such claimant (including the Borrowers), then and in such event
the Company agrees that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or
compromise shall be binding upon the Company, notwithstanding any revocation of
this Guaranty or other instrument evidencing any liability of any Borrower, and
the Company shall be and remain liable to the aforesaid payees hereunder for the
amount so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never
originally been received by any such payee.

         12.02 Insolvency. Additionally, the Company unconditionally and
irrevocably guarantees the payment of the Dollar Equivalent of any and all of
the Guaranteed Obligations of the Subsidiary Borrowers to the Guaranteed
Creditors whether or not due or payable by any Borrower upon the occurrence of
any of the events specified in Sections 9.01(f) or (g), and unconditionally
promises to pay the Dollar Equivalent of such Guaranteed Obligations to the
Guaranteed Creditors, or order, on demand, in lawful money of the United States.

         12.03 Nature of Liability. The liability of the Company hereunder is
exclusive and independent of any security for or other guaranty of the
Guaranteed Obligations of any Borrower whether executed by the Company, any
other guarantor or by any other party, and the liability of the Company
hereunder is not affected or impaired by (a) any direction as to application of
payment by any Borrower or by any other party; or (b) any other continuing or
other guaranty, undertaking or maximum liability of a guarantor or of any other
party as to the Guaranteed Obligations of any Borrower; or (c) any payment on or
in reduction of any such other guaranty or undertaking; or (d) any dissolution,
termination or increase, decrease or change in personnel by any Borrower; or (e)
any payment made to any Guaranteed Creditor on the Guaranteed Obligations which
any such Guaranteed Creditor repays to any Borrower pursuant to court order in
any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief
proceeding, and the Company waives any right to the deferral or modification of
its obligations hereunder by reason of any such proceeding.

         12.04 Independent Obligation. The obligations of the Company hereunder
are independent of the obligations of any other guarantor, any other party or
any Borrower, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted
against the Company whether or not action is brought against any other
guarantor, any other party or any Borrower and whether or not any other
guarantor, any other party or any Borrower is joined in any such action or
actions. The Company waives, to the full extent permitted by law, the benefit of
any statute of limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement
thereof. Any payment by a Borrower or other circumstance which operates to toll
any statute of limitations as to such Borrower shall operate to toll the statute
of limitations as to the Company's obligations under this Article XII.

                                      114
<PAGE>

         12.05 Authorization. The Company authorizes the Guaranteed Creditors
without notice or demand (except as shall be required by applicable statute and
cannot be waived), and without affecting or impairing its liability hereunder,
from time to time to:

               (a) change the manner, place or terms of payment of, and/or
change or extend the time of payment of, renew, increase, accelerate or alter,
any of the Guaranteed Obligations (including any increase or decrease in the
rate of interest thereon), any security therefor, or any liability incurred
directly or indirectly in respect thereof, and the Guaranty herein made shall
apply to the Guaranteed Obligations as so changed, extended, renewed or altered;

               (b) take and hold security for the payment of the Guaranteed
Obligations and sell, exchange, release, surrender, realize upon or otherwise
deal with in any manner and in any order any property by whomsoever at any time
pledged or mortgaged to secure, or howsoever securing, the Guaranteed
Obligations or any liabilities (including any of those hereunder) incurred
directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and/or any offset
thereagainst;

               (c) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against any
Borrower or others or otherwise act or refrain from acting;

               (d) release or substitute any one or more endorsers, guarantors,
Borrowers or other obligors;

               (e) settle or compromise any of the Guaranteed Obligations, any
security therefor or any liability (including any of those hereunder) incurred
directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and may subordinate the
payment of all or any part thereof to the payment of any liability (whether due
or not) of any Borrower to its creditors other than the Guaranteed Creditors;

               (f) apply any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to
any liability or liabilities of any Borrower to the Guaranteed Creditors
regardless of what liability or liabilities of the Company or any Borrower
remain unpaid;

               (g) consent to or waive any breach of, or any act, omission or
default under, this Agreement or any of the instruments or agreements referred
to herein, or otherwise amend, modify or supplement this Agreement or any of
such other instruments or agreements; and/or

               (h) take any other action which would, under otherwise applicable
principles of common law, give rise to a legal or equitable discharge of the
Company from its liabilities under this Guaranty.

         12.06 Reliance. It is not necessary for any Guaranteed Creditor to
inquire into the capacity or powers of any Borrower or the officers, directors,
partners or agents acting or purporting to act on their behalf, and any
Guaranteed Obligations made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise
of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.

         12.07 Subordination. Any of the indebtedness of each Borrower relating
to the Guaranteed Obligations now or hereafter owing to the Company is hereby
subordinated to the

                                      115
<PAGE>

Guaranteed Obligations of such Borrower owing to the Guaranteed Creditors, and
if the Agent so requests at a time when an Event of Default exists, all such
indebtedness relating to the Guaranteed Obligations of such Borrower to the
Company shall be collected, enforced and received by the Company for the benefit
of the Guaranteed Creditors and be paid over to the Agent on behalf of the
Guaranteed Creditors on account of the Guaranteed Obligations of such Borrower
to the Guaranteed Creditors, but without affecting or impairing in any manner
the liability of the Company under the other provisions of this Guaranty. Prior
to the transfer by the Company of any note or negotiable instrument evidencing
any of the indebtedness relating to the Guaranteed Obligations of such Borrower
to the Company, the Company shall mark such note or negotiable instrument with a
legend that the same is subject to this subordination. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Company hereby agrees with the Guaranteed
Creditors that it will not exercise any right of subrogation which it may at any
time otherwise have as a result of this Guaranty (whether contractual, under
Section 509 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) until all Guaranteed
Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash.

         12.08 Waiver.

               (a) The Company waives any right (except as shall be required by
applicable statute and cannot be waived) to require any Guaranteed Creditor to
(i) proceed against any Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party, (ii)
proceed against or exhaust any security held from any Borrower, any other
guarantor or any other party or (iii) pursue any other remedy in any Guaranteed
Creditor's power whatsoever. The Company waives any defense based on or arising
out of any defense of any Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party,
other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations, based on or arising
out of the disability of any Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party,
or the validity, legality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or
any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the
liability of any Borrower other than payment in full of the Guaranteed
Obligations. The Guaranteed Creditors may, at their election, foreclose on any
security held by the Agent or any other Guaranteed Creditor by one or more
judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is
commercially reasonable (to the extent such sale is permitted by applicable
law), or exercise any other right or remedy the Guaranteed Creditors may have
against any Borrower or any other party, or any security, without affecting or
impairing in any way the liability of the Company hereunder except to the extent
the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid. The Company waives any defense
arising out of any such election by the Guaranteed Creditors, even though such
election operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or
subrogation or other right or remedy of the Company against any Borrower or any
other party or any security.

               (b) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the
Company waives all presentments, demands for performance, protests and notices,
including without limitation notices of nonperformance, notices of protest,
notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Guaranty, and notices of the
existence, creation or incurring of new or additional Guaranteed Obligations.
The Company assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of
each Borrower's financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances
bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the
nature, scope and extent of the risks which the Company assumes and incurs
hereunder, and

                                      116
<PAGE>

agrees that the Agent and the Lenders shall have no duty to advise the Company
of information known to them regarding such circumstances or risks.

         12.09 Nature of Liability. It is the desire and intent of the Company
and the Guaranteed Creditors that this Guaranty shall be enforced against the
Company to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies
applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. If, however, and to
the extent that, the obligations of the Company under this Guaranty shall be
adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason (including, without
limitation, because of any applicable state or federal law relating to
fraudulent conveyances or transfers), then the amount of the Guaranteed
Obligations shall be deemed to be reduced and the Company shall pay the maximum
amount of the Guaranteed Obligations which would be permissible under applicable
law.
