Event of Default, including, without limitation, Sections 1.2(b)(3) and 2.1(b) of the Credit

have hereafter under or in connection with the Credit Agreement or any other instrument or
agreement referred to therein.

 

 

     SECTION 3. Conditions of Effectiveness. This Amendment and Limited Waiver shall
become effective as of the date (the “Effective Date”) when, and only when, the Agent shall

Agent; and

     (c) A fee in the amount of $150,000.

     SECTION 4. Representations and Warranties of the Borrowers. Each Borrower represents

     (a) Such Borrower is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the jurisdiction indicated with respect to it in the recital of
parties to this Amendment and Limited Waiver.

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

terms.

 

 

     SECTION 5. Default Rate Election. The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that,
based on the preliminary financial information for the most recent fiscal quarter provided by the
Borrowers to the Agent, the Borrowers are not in compliance with the covenant set forth in Section
7.27 of the Credit Agreement for the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2004. The parties hereby
further acknowledge and agree that such non-compliance constitutes a Default under the Credit
Agreement, in respect of which the Agent and the Required Lenders have elected pursuant to Section
2.1(b) of the Credit Agreement to require that all of the Obligations shall, commencing on the
Effective Date, bear interest at the Default Rate applicable thereto so long as such Default (or
any Event of Default arising therefrom) has occurred and is continuing.

     SECTION 6. Board Approval. No later than 2 Business Days following the Effective
Date, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Agent, certified copies of (A) the resolutions of the
Board of Directors of each Borrower approving and ratifying this Amendment and Limited Waiver and
the matters contemplated hereby and (B) all documents evidencing other necessary corporate action
and governmental approvals, if any, with respect to this Amendment and Limited Waiver and the
matters contemplated hereby. In the event that the Borrowers shall not have timely delivered the
resolutions and other documents required by the preceding sentence, the Agent shall have the
option, exercisable in its sole discretion, to terminate the effectiveness of this Amendment and
Limited Waiver for all purposes except payment of the fee required pursuant to Section 3(c) hereof.

     SECTION 7. Reference to and Effect on the Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents.
(a) On and after the Effective Date, each reference in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement”,
“hereunder”, “hereof” or words of like import referring to the Credit Agreement, and each reference
in the other Loan Documents to “the Credit Agreement”, “thereunder”, “thereof” or words of like
import referring to the Credit Agreement, shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement, as
amended by this Amendment and Limited Waiver.

     (b) Except to the extent of the waiver specifically granted in Section 2 above during the
Limited Waiver Period, the Credit Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents, as specifically
amended by this Amendment and Limited Waiver, are and shall continue to be in full force and effect
and are hereby in all respects ratified and confirmed.

     SECTION 8. Costs, Expenses. The Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to pay on
demand all costs and expenses of the Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery
and administration, modification and amendment of this Amendment and Limited Waiver and the other
instruments and documents to be delivered hereunder (including, without limitation, the reasonable
fees and expenses of counsel for the Agent) in accordance with the terms of Section 13.7 of the
Credit Agreement.

     SECTION 9. Execution in Counterparts. This Amendment and Limited Waiver may be
executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts,
each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together
shall constitute but one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a
signature page to this Amendment and Limited Waiver by telecopier shall be effective as delivery of
a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment and Limited Waiver.

 

 

     SECTION 10. Governing Law. This Amendment and Limited Waiver shall be governed by,
and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of California; provided that the Agent and
the Lenders shall retain all rights arising under federal law.

     SECTION 11. Release. Each of the Borrowers acknowledges and agrees that it has no
actual or potential claim or cause of action against the Agent or any Lender with respect to any
matters relating to the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document through the date hereof, and
hereby waives and releases any right to assert same.

     SECTION 12. Waiver of California Civil Code Section 1542. The parties hereto waive
any and all application of California Civil Code Section 1542. The parties acknowledge that each
received competent and independent legal advice with respect to the meaning and effect of waiving
California Civil Code Section 1542, and is aware of and understands the provisions of that Section,
which provides that:

     “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to
exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially
affected his settlement with the debtor.”

     The parties understand and acknowledge that they may hereafter discover facts relating to the
Claims released herein in addition to or different from those which they believed to be true on the
date of execution of this Amendment and Limited Waiver, and the claims released herein shall
nonetheless be deemed to be fully, finally, and forever settled and released upon the execution of
this Amendment and Limited Waiver, without regard to the subsequent discovery or existence of
additional or different facts.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Amendment and Limited Waiver to be
executed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized, as of the date first above
written.

terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make Advances to the Borrower
from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date
until the Termination Date in an aggregate amount (based in respect of any
Advances denominated in a Committed Currency on the Equivalent in Dollars
determined on the date of delivery of the applicable Notice of Borrowing) not to
exceed at any time outstanding the Dollar amount set forth opposite such
Lender's name on the signature pages hereof or, if such Lender has become a

forth as the Commitment of such Lender in such Assumption Agreement or, if such
Lender has entered into an Assignment and Acceptance the Dollar amount set forth
for such Lender in the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant
to Section 8.07(c), as such amount may be reduced pursuant to Section 2.04 or

the Lenders shall not be obligated to, and shall not, make any Advances as part
of a Borrowing if after giving effect to such Borrowing the sum of the then
outstanding aggregate amount of all Borrowings shall exceed the aggregate amount
of the Commitments then in effect. Each Borrowing shall be in an aggregate
amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or
the Equivalent thereof in any Committed Currency determined on the date of

2.02(b), each Borrowing shall consist of Advances of the same Type made on the
same day by the Lenders ratably according to their respective Commitments.

under this Section 2.01.

            SECTION 2.02 Making the Advances. (a) Each Borrowing shall be made
on notice, given not later than (x) 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the same
Business Day as the date of a proposed Borrowing comprised of Base Rate
Advances, (y) 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to
the date of a proposed Borrowing comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Advances
denominated in any Committed Currency, or (z) 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on
the third Business Day prior to the date of a proposed Borrowing comprised of
Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in Dollars, by the Borrower to the

                                       12

<PAGE>

thereof by telecopier. Each such notice of a Borrowing (a "NOTICE OF BORROWING")
shall be by telecopier, or by telephone, confirmed immediately by telecopier, in
substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto, specifying therein the requested (i)
date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) Type of Advances
comprising such Borrowing, (iii) aggregate amount of such Borrowing, and (iv) in
the case of a Borrowing comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, initial
Interest Period and currency for each such Advance. Each Lender shall, before
(A) 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the date of such Borrowing consisting of
Advances denominated in Dollars or (B) 1:00 P.M. (London time) on the date of
such Borrowing consisting of Advances denominated in any Committed Currency,
make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the
Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent's Account, in same day funds,
such Lender's ratable portion of such Borrowing. After the Administrative
Agent's receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions
set forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent will make such funds
available to the Borrower at the office where the Administrative Agent's Account
is maintained.

            (b) Anything in subsection (a) above or Section 2.01 to the contrary
      notwithstanding, the Borrower may not select Eurocurrency Rate Advances
      for any Borrowing if the aggregate amount of such Borrowing is less than
      $20,000,000 (or the Equivalent thereof in any Committed Currency
      determined on the date of delivery of the applicable Notice of Borrowing)
      or if the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances
      shall be suspended at such time pursuant to Section 2.08.

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

            (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from
      a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make
      available to the Administrative Agent such Lender's ratable portion of
      such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has
      made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of
      such Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and
      the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make
      available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to
      the extent that any Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion
      available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the
      Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount
      together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is
      made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is paid to the
      Administrative Agent, at (A) the Federal Funds Rate in the case of
      Advances denominated in Dollars or (B) the cost of funds incurred by the
      Administrative Agent in respect of such amount in the case of Advances
      denominated in Committed Currencies; provided, however, that (i) within
      two Business Days after any Lender shall fail to make such ratable portion
      available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall
      notify the Borrower of such failure and (ii) if such Lender shall not have
      paid such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent within two
      Business Days after such demand is made of such Lender by the
      Administrative Agent, the Borrower agrees to repay to the Administrative
      Agent forthwith, upon demand by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower,
      such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day
      from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until

                                       13

<PAGE>

      the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at the
      interest rate applicable at the time to Advances comprising such
      Borrowing. If and to the extent such corresponding amount shall be paid by
      such Lender to the Administrative Agent in accordance with this Section
      2.02(d), such amount so paid shall constitute such Lender's Advance as
      part of such Borrowing for all purposes of this Agreement.

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

            SECTION 2.03 Fees. (a) Facility Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to
each Lender a facility fee on the average daily amount (whether used or unused)
of such Lender's Commitment from the Effective Date, in the case of each Initial
Lender, and from the later of (a) the Effective Date and (b) the effective date
specified in the Assumption Agreement or the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant
to which it became a Lender, in the case of each other Lender, until, in each
case, the Termination Date, payable quarterly in arrears on the first Business
Day of each January, April, July and October during the term of such Lender's
Commitment, commencing April 1, 2005, and on the Termination Date, at the rate
per annum equal to the Facility Fee Percentage in effect from time to time.

            (a) Utilization Fee. For each day on which the outstanding Advances
      exceed 50% of the Commitments, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for
      the account of each Lender, a utilization fee equal to the quotient
      obtained by dividing (A) the product of (1) the difference between the
      aggregate outstanding Advances on such day and the outstanding Base Rate
      Advances on such day and (2) 0.10% by (B) 365 (or, for any such day in a
      leap year, 366). This Utilization Fee shall be paid quarterly in arrears
      on the first Business Day of each January, April, July and October of each
      year, and on the Termination Date.

            SECTION 2.04 Reduction of the Commitments. The Borrower shall have
the right, upon at least three Business Days' notice to the Administrative
Agent, to terminate in whole or reduce ratably in part the unused portions of
the respective Commitments of the Lenders; provided that each partial reduction
shall be in the aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of
$1,000,000 in excess thereof and; provided, further, that after giving effect to
any such partial reduction, the total Commitments shall not be less than the
then outstanding aggregate amount of Advances. Once terminated, such Commitments
may not be reinstated.

            SECTION 2.05 Repayment of Advances. The Borrower shall repay to each
Lender on the Termination Date the aggregate principal amount of the Advances
owing to such Lender on such date.

            SECTION 2.06 Interest on Advances. (a) Scheduled Interest. The
Borrower shall pay to each Lender interest on the unpaid principal amount of
each Advance owing to such Lender from the date of such Advance until such
principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum:

                  (i) Base Rate Advances. During such periods as such Advance is
      a Base Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times to the Base Rate
      in effect from time to time, payable quarterly in arrears on the first
      Business Day of each January, April, July and October during such periods
      and on the date such Base Rate Advance shall be Converted or paid in full
      and, for the avoidance of doubt, a Utilization Fee shall not be payable
      during such periods as such Advance is a Base Rate Advance.

                                       14

                  (ii) Eurocurrency Rate Advances. During such periods as such

      duration of more than three months, on the date which occurs three months
      and, if applicable, six months, nine months and twelve months after the
      first day of such Interest Period and on the date such Eurocurrency Rate
      Advance shall be Converted or paid in full.

            (b) Default Interest. The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid
      principal amount of each Advance that is not paid when due and on the
      unpaid amount of all interest, fees and other amounts payable hereunder
      that is not paid when due, payable on demand, at a rate per annum equal at
      all times to (i) in the case of any amount of principal, the greater of
      (x) 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on such
      Advance immediately prior to the date on which such amount became due and
      (y) 2% per annum above the Base Rate in effect from time to time and (ii)
      to the fullest extent permitted by law, in the case of all other amounts,
      2% per annum above the Base Rate in effect from time to time.

            SECTION 2.07 Additional Interest on Eurocurrency Rate Advances. The
Borrower shall pay to each Lender, so long as such Lender shall be required
under regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System to
maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or
including Eurocurrency Liabilities, additional interest on the unpaid principal
amount of each Eurocurrency Rate Advance of such Lender, from the date of such
Advance until such principal amount is paid in full, at an interest rate per
annum equal at all times to the remainder obtained by subtracting (i) the
Eurocurrency Rate for the applicable Interest Period for such Advance from (ii)
the rate obtained by dividing such Eurocurrency Rate by a percentage equal to
100% minus the Eurocurrency Rate Reserve Percentage of such Lender for such
Interest Period, payable on each date on which interest is payable on such
Advance. Such additional interest shall be determined by such Lender and
notified in reasonable detail to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent.

            SECTION 2.08 Interest Rate Determination. (a) To the extent
required, each Reference Bank agrees to furnish to the Administrative Agent
timely information for the purpose of determining each Eurocurrency Rate. If any
one or more of the Reference Banks shall not furnish such timely information to
the Administrative Agent for the purpose of determining such interest rate, the
Administrative Agent shall determine such interest rate on the basis of timely
information furnished by the remaining Reference Banks.

            (b) The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the
      Borrower and the Lenders of the applicable interest rate determined by the
      Administrative Agent for purposes of Section 2.06(a)(i) or (a)(ii), and,
      if applicable, the rate, if any, furnished by each Reference Bank for the
      purpose of determining the applicable interest rate under Section
      2.06(a)(ii).

            (c) If fewer than two Reference Banks furnish timely information to
      the Administrative Agent for purposes of determining the Eurocurrency Rate
      for any Eurocurrency Rate Advances, (i) the Administrative Agent shall
      forthwith notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the interest rate
      cannot be determined for such Eurocurrency Rate Advances, (ii) each such
      Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest
      Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance (or, if such Advance is
      then a Base Rate Advance, will continue as a Base Rate Advance), and (iii)
      the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into,
      Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative
      Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances
      causing such suspension no longer exist.

                                       15

<PAGE>

            (d) If, with respect to any Eurocurrency Rate Advances, the Majority
      Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that (i) they are unable to obtain
      matching deposits in the London inter-bank market at or about 11:00 A.M.
      (London time) on the second Business Day before the making of a Borrowing
      in sufficient amounts to fund their respective Eurocurrency Rate Advances
      as a part of such Borrowing during its Interest Period or (ii) the
      Eurocurrency Rate for any Interest Period for such Advances will not
      adequately reflect the cost to such Majority Lenders (which cost each such
      Majority Lender reasonably determines in good faith is material) of
      making, funding or maintaining their respective Eurocurrency Rate Advances
      for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so
      notify the Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon, unless the Eurocurrency
      Rate Margin shall be increased to reflect such costs as determined by such
      Majority Lenders and as agreed by the Borrower, (A) the obligation of the
      Lenders to make, or to Convert Base Rate Advances into, Eurocurrency Rate
      Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify
      the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such
      suspension no longer exist, and (B) the Borrower will, on the last day of
      the then existing Interest Period therefor, (1) if such Eurocurrency Rate
      Advances are denominated in Dollars, either (x) prepay such Advances or
      (y) Convert such Advances into Base Rate Advances and (2) if such
      Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in any Committed Currency,
      either (x) prepay such Advances or (y) redenominate such Advances into an
      Equivalent amount of Dollars and Convert such Advances into Base Rate
      Advances. The Administrative Agent shall use reasonable efforts to
      determine from time to time whether the circumstances causing such
      suspension no longer exist and, promptly after the Administrative Agent
      knows that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, the
      Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrower and the Lenders.

            (e) If the Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any
      Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Rate Advances in accordance with the
      provisions contained in the definition of "Interest Period" in Section
      1.01, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify the Borrower and
      the Lenders and such Advances will automatically, on the last day of the
      then existing Interest Period therefor, (i) if such Eurocurrency Rate
      Advances are denominated in Dollars, be Converted into Base Rate Advances
      and (ii) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in a Committed
      Currency, be redenominated into an Equivalent amount of Dollars and be
      Converted into Base Rate Advances.

            (f) On the date on which the aggregate unpaid principal amount of
      Eurocurrency Rate Advances comprising any Borrowing shall be reduced, by
      payment or prepayment or otherwise, to less than $20,000,000, such
      Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall automatically Convert into Base Rate
      Advances and, on and after such date, the right of the Borrower to Convert
      such Advances into Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall terminate; provided,
      however, that if and so long as each such Eurocurrency Rate Advance shall
      have the same Interest Period as Eurocurrency Rate Advances comprising
      another Borrowing or Borrowings, and the aggregate unpaid principal amount
      of all such Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall equal or exceed $20,000,000,
      the Borrower shall have the right to continue all such Eurocurrency Rate
      Advances as, or to Convert all such Advances into, Eurocurrency Rate
      Advances having such Interest Period.

            (g) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of
      Default under Section 6.01(a), (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Advance will
      automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period
      therefor, (A) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in
      Dollars, be Converted into Base Rate Advances and (B) if such Eurocurrency
      Rate Advances are denominated in any Committed Currency, be redenominated
      into an Equivalent amount of

                                       16

<PAGE>

      Dollars and be Converted into Base Rate Advances and (ii) the obligation
      of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurocurrency Rate
      Advances shall be suspended.

            SECTION 2.09 Optional Conversion of Advances. The Borrower may on
any Business Day, upon notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than
(i) 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the same Business Day as the date of the
proposed Conversion in the case of a Conversion of Eurocurrency Rate Advances
into Base Rate Advances, and (ii) 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the third
Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion in the case of a
Conversion of Base Rate Advances into Eurocurrency Rate Advances or of
Eurocurrency Rate Advances of one Interest Period into Eurocurrency Rate
Advances of another Interest Period, as the case may be, and subject to the
provisions of Sections 2.08, 2.09 and 2.12, Convert all Advances denominated in
Dollars of one Type comprising the same Borrowing into Advances denominated in
Dollars of the other Type; provided, however, that any Conversion of any
Eurocurrency Rate Advances into Base Rate Advances or into Eurocurrency Rate
Advances of another Interest Period shall be made on, and only on, the last day
of an Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Advances. Promptly upon receipt
from the Borrower of a notice of a proposed Conversion hereunder, the
Administrative Agent shall give notice of such proposed Conversion to each
Lender. Each such notice of a Conversion shall, within the restrictions set
forth above, specify (x) the date of such Conversion (which shall be a Business
Day), (y) the Advances to be Converted, and (z) if such Conversion is into
Eurocurrency Rate Advances, the duration of the initial Interest Period for each
such Advance. The Borrower may Convert all Eurocurrency Rate Advances of any one
Lender into Base Rate Advances of such Lender in accordance with the provisions
of Section 2.12 by complying with the procedures set forth therein and in this
Section 2.09 as though each reference in this Section 2.09 to Advances
denominated in Dollars of any Type was to such Advances of such Lender. Each
such notice of Conversion shall, subject to the provisions of Sections 2.08 and
2.12, be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower.

            SECTION 2.10 Prepayments of Advances. (a) Optional. The Borrower
may, upon not less than (i) the same Business Day's notice to the Administrative
Agent received not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) in the case of
Borrowings consisting of Base Rate Advances, (ii) three Business Days' notice to
the Administrative Agent received not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time)
in the case of Borrowings consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated
in any Committed Currency, or (iii) three Business Days' notice to the
Administrative Agent received not later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) in
the case of Borrowings consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in
Dollars, stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the
prepayment, and if such notice is given the Borrower shall, prepay the
outstanding principal amounts of the Advances constituting part of the same
Borrowings in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the
date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that
(x) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount of
$1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or the
Equivalent thereof in a Committed Currency determined on the date notice of
prepayment is given), and (y) in the case of any such prepayment of Eurocurrency
Rate Advances, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Lenders in
respect thereof pursuant to Section 8.04(b).

            (b) Mandatory. (i) If, the Administrative Agent notifies the
      Borrower in writing that, on any date, the sum of (A) the aggregate
      principal amount of all Advances denominated in Dollars then outstanding
      and (B) the Equivalent in Dollars (determined on the third Business Day
      prior to such date) of the aggregate principal amount of all Advances
      denominated in Committed Currencies then outstanding exceeds 102% of the
      aggregate Commitments of the Lenders on such date, the Borrower shall,
      within two Business Days after receipt of such notice, prepay the
      outstanding principal amount of any Advances necessary so that, after
      giving effect to such prepayment of Advances the sum of (A) and (B) above
      does not exceed 100% of the aggregate

                                       17

<PAGE>

      Commitments of the Lenders as set forth in the written notice from the
      Administrative Agent to the Borrower.

                  (ii) Each prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.10(b)
      shall be made together with any interest accrued to the date of such
      prepayment on the principal amounts prepaid and, in the case of any
      prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Advance on a date other than the last
      day of an Interest Period, with any additional amounts which the Borrower
      shall be obligated to reimburse to the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant
      to Section 8.04(b). The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice of
      any prepayment required under this Section 2.10(b) to the Borrower and the
      Lenders.

            SECTION 2.11 Increased Costs. (a) If after the date hereof, due to
either (i) the introduction of or any change (other than any change by way of
imposition or increase of reserve requirements included in the Eurocurrency Rate
Reserve Percentage) in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii)
the compliance with any hereafter promulgated guideline or request from any
central bank or other governmental authority, including, without limitation, any
agency of the European Union or similar monetary or multinational authority
(whether or not having the force of law), which guideline or request either (x)
imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar
requirement against letters of credit or guarantees issued by, or assets held by
or deposits in or for the account of, any Lender or (y) imposes on any Lender
any other condition regarding this Agreement or any collateral thereon, there
shall be any increase in the cost (excluding any allocation of corporate
overhead) to any Lender (which cost such Lender reasonably determines in good
faith is material) of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining
Eurocurrency Rate Advances, then such Lender shall so notify the Borrower
promptly after such Lender knows of such increased cost and determines that such
cost is material and the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such
Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender additional amounts
sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost. A certificate of
such Lender as to the amount of such increased cost in reasonable detail and
stating the basis upon which such amount has been calculated and certifying that
such Lender's method of allocating such costs is fair and reasonable and that
such Lender's demand for payment of such costs hereunder is not inconsistent
with its treatment of other borrowers which, as a credit matter, are
substantially similar to the Borrower and which are subject to similar
provisions, submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such
Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

            (b) If, after the date hereof, either (i) the introduction of or
      change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the
      compliance by any Lender with any hereafter promulgated guideline or
      request from any central bank or other governmental authority, including,
      without limitation, any agency of the European Union or similar monetary
      or multinational authority (whether or not having the force of law),
      affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be
      maintained by such Lender or any entity controlling such Lender and the
      amount of such capital is materially increased by or based upon the
      existence of such Lender's commitment to lend hereunder and other
      commitments of this type, then such Lender shall so notify the Borrower
      promptly after such Lender makes such determination and, upon demand by
      such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the
      Borrower shall pay to such Lender within five days from the date of such
      demand, from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts
      sufficient to compensate such Lender or such corporation in the light of
      such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender reasonably determines
      such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such Lender's
      commitment to lend hereunder. A certificate of such Lender as to such
      amount in reasonable detail and stating the basis upon which such amount
      has been calculated and certifying that such Lender's method of allocating
      such increase of capital is fair and reasonable and that such Lender's
      demand for

                                       18

<PAGE>

      payment of such increase of capital hereunder is not inconsistent with its
      treatment of other borrowers which, as a credit matter, are substantially
      similar to the Borrower and which are subject to similar provisions,
      submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Lender,
      shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

            (c) The Borrower shall not be obligated to pay under this Section
      2.11 any amounts which relate to costs or increases of capital incurred
      prior to the 12 months immediately preceding the date of demand for
      payment of such amounts, unless the applicable law, regulation, guideline
      or request resulting in such costs or increases of capital is imposed
      retroactively. In the case of any law, regulation, guideline or request
      which is imposed retroactively, the Lender making demand for payment of
      any amount under this Section 2.11 shall notify the Borrower not later
      than 12 months from the date that such Lender should reasonably have known
      of such law, regulation, guideline or request and the Borrower's
      obligation to compensate such Lender for such amount is contingent upon
      such Lender so notifying the Borrower; provided, however, that any failure
      by such Lender to provide such notice shall not affect the Borrower's
      obligations under this Section 2.11 with respect to amounts resulting from
      costs or increases of capital incurred after the date which occurs 12
      months immediately preceding the date on which such Lender notified the
      Borrower of such law, regulation, guideline or request.

            (d) If any Lender shall subsequently recoup any costs (other than
      from the Borrower) for which such Lender has theretofore been compensated
      by the Borrower under this Section 2.11, such Lender shall remit to the
      Borrower an amount equal to the amount of such recoupment. Amounts
      required to be paid by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be
      paid in addition to, and without duplication of, any amounts required to
      be paid pursuant to Section 2.14.

            (e) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the
      Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower
      contained in this Section 2.11 shall survive the payment in full (after
      the Termination Date) of all payment obligations of the Borrower in
      respect of Advances hereunder.

            SECTION 2.12 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, if any Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent that the
introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or
regulation after the date hereof makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other
governmental authority asserts that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its
Eurocurrency Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make
Eurocurrency Rate Advances in Dollars or any Committed Currency or to fund or
maintain Eurocurrency Rate Advances in Dollars or any Committed Currency, (a)
the obligation of such Lender to make, or to Convert Base Rate Advances into,
Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended until such Lender shall notify the
Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and
the other Lenders (which notice shall be given promptly after the Administrative
Agent knows that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist) that
the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and (b) the Borrower
shall forthwith prepay in full all Eurocurrency Rate Advances of such Lender
then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon, unless the Borrower,
within five Business Days of notice from the Administrative Agent or, if
permitted by law, on and as of the last day of the then existing Interest Period
for such Eurocurrency Rate Advances, (i) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advance is
denominated in Dollars, Converts it into a Base Rate Advance or an Advance that
bears interest at the rate set forth in Section 2.06(a)(i), and (ii) if such
Eurocurrency Rate Advance is denominated in any Committed Currency,
redenominates it into an Equivalent amount of Dollars and Converts it into a
Base Rate Advance or an Advance that bears interest at the rate set forth in
Section 2.06(a)(i).

                                       19

<PAGE>

            SECTION 2.13 Payments and Computations. (a) The Borrower shall make
each payment hereunder (and under the Notes, if any), irrespective of any right
of set-off or counterclaim, except with respect to principal of, interest on,
and other amounts relating to, Advances denominated in a Committed Currency, not
later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day when due, in Dollars to
the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent's Account in same day
funds. The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder with respect to principal
of, interest on, and other amounts relating to, Advances denominated in a
Committed Currency, not later than 11:00 A.M. (at the Payment Office for such
Committed Currency) on the day when due, in such Committed Currency to the
Administrative Agent, by deposit of such funds to the Administrative Agent's
Account in same day funds. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter
cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or
interest or fees ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Sections 2.07,
2.11, 2.14, 8.04 and 8.08) to the Lenders for the account of their respective
Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other
amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its Applicable
Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement. Upon any Assuming Lender becoming a Lender hereunder as a result of a
Commitment Increase pursuant to Section 2.19 or an extension of the Termination
Date pursuant to Section 2.20, and upon the Administrative Agent's receipt of
such Lender's Assumption Agreement and recording of the information contained
therein in the Register, from and after the applicable Increase Date or
Extension Date, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and
under any Notes issued in connection therewith in respect of the interest
assumed thereby to the Assuming Lender. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and
Acceptance and recording of the information contained therein in the Register
pursuant to Section 8.07(d), from and after the effective date specified in such
Assignment and Acceptance, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments
hereunder and under the Notes, if any, issued in connection therewith in respect
of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the
parties to such Assignment and Acceptance shall make all appropriate adjustments
in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between
themselves.

            (b) All computations of interest based on clause (a) of the
      definition of "Base Rate" shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the
      basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all
      computations of interest based on the Eurocurrency Rate or the Federal
      Funds Rate and of fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent, and all
      computations of additional interest pursuant to Section 2.07 shall be made
      by a Lender, on the basis of a year of 360 days (or, in each case of
      Advances denominated in Committed Currencies where market practice
      differs, in accordance with such market practice after notification of the
      Borrower), in each case for the actual number of days (including the first
      day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such
      interest or fees are payable. Each determination by the Administrative
      Agent (or, in the case of Section 2.07, by a Lender) of an interest rate
      hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent
      manifest error.

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

            (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from
      the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders
      hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the
      Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in
      full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent
      may,

                                       20

<PAGE>

      in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender
      on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If
      and to the extent that the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in
      full to the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall repay to the
      Administrative Agent, forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such
      Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such
      amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays
      such amount to the Administrative Agent, at (i) the Federal Funds Rate in
      the case of Advances denominated in Dollars or (ii) the cost of funds
      incurred by the Administrative Agent in respect of such amount in the case
      of Advances denominated in Committed Currencies.

            SECTION 2.14 Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by the Borrower
hereunder or under the Notes, if any, shall be made, in accordance with Section
2.13, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future
taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities
with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Lender and the
Administrative Agent, taxes imposed on its income, and franchise taxes imposed
on it, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender or the
Administrative Agent, as the case may be, is organized or any political
subdivision thereof and, in the case of each Lender, taxes imposed on its
income, and franchise taxes imposed on it by the jurisdiction of such Lender's
Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof or by any other
jurisdiction in which such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may
be, is doing business that is unrelated to this Agreement (all such non-excluded
taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being
hereinafter referred to as "TAXES"). If the Borrower shall be required by law to
deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender
or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, (i) the sum payable shall be
increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions
(including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section
2.14) such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, receives an
amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made,
(ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay
the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority
in accordance with applicable law.

            (b) In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any present or future
      stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges
      or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or under the
      Notes, if any, or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or
      otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or the Notes, if any
      (hereinafter referred to as "OTHER TAXES").

            (c) The Borrower will indemnify each Lender and the Administrative
      Agent for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without
      limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on
      amounts payable under this Section 2.14) paid by such Lender or the
      Administrative Agent, as the case may be, and any liability (including
      penalties to the extent not imposed as a result of such Lender's or the
      Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct, interest
      and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not
      such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This
      indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender or
      the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, makes written demand
      therefor.

            (d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the
      Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred
      to in Section 8.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt
      evidencing payment thereof, to the extent that such a receipt is issued,
      or if such receipt is not issued, other evidence of payment thereof that
      is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

                                       21

            (e) Each Lender that is not created or organized under the laws of
      the United States or a political subdivision thereof shall deliver to the
      Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date of its
      execution and delivery of this Agreement, and each such Lender that is not
      a party hereto on the date hereof shall deliver to the Borrower and the
      Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes
      a Lender pursuant to Section 2.19, 2.20 or 8.07 (as the case may be), a
      true and accurate certificate executed in duplicate by a duly authorized
      officer of such Lender in substantially the form set out in Exhibit D-1 or
      D-2 hereto, as applicable, to the effect that such Lender is eligible
      under the provisions of an applicable tax treaty concluded by the United
      States (in which case the certificate shall be accompanied by two executed
      copies of Form W-8BEN (or any successor or substitute form or forms) of
      the Internal Revenue Service of the United States (the "IRS"), or under
      Section 1441(c) or 1442 of the Internal Revenue Code (in which case the
      certificate shall be accompanied by two copies of IRS Form W-8ECI (or any
      successor or substitute form or forms) of the IRS, to receive, as of the
      date hereof or as of the date such party becomes a Lender hereto pursuant
      to Section 2.19, 2.20 or 8.07 (as the case may be), as appropriate,
      payments hereunder without deduction or withholding of United States
      federal income tax. Each such Lender further agrees to deliver to the
      Borrower and the Administrative Agent from time to time, as reasonably
      requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, and in any case
      before or promptly upon the occurrence of any events requiring a change in
      the most recent certificate previously delivered pursuant to this Section
      2.14(e), a true and accurate certificate executed in duplicate by a duly
      authorized officer of such Lender in substantially the form set out in
      Exhibit D-1 or D-2 hereto, as applicable. Further, each Lender that
      delivers a certificate in the form set out in Exhibit D-1 hereto agrees,
      to the extent permitted by law, to deliver to the Borrower and the
      Administrative Agent within 15 days prior to every third anniversary of
      the date of delivery of the initial IRS Form W-8BEN by such Lender (or
      more often if required by law) on which this Agreement is still in effect,
      two accurate and complete original signed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN (or
      any successor or substitute form or forms required under the Internal
      Revenue Code or the applicable regulations promulgated thereunder) and a
      certificate in the form set out in such Exhibit D-1, and each Lender that
      delivers a certificate in the form set out in Exhibit D-2 hereto agrees to
      deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, to the extent
      permitted by law, within 15 days prior to every third anniversary of the
      date of delivery of the initial IRS Form W-8ECI by such Lender (or more
      often if required by law) on which this Agreement is still in effect, two
      accurate and complete original signed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI (or any
      successor or substitute form or forms required under the Internal Revenue
      Code or the applicable regulations promulgated thereunder) and a
      certificate in the form of such Exhibit D-2. Each such certificate shall
      certify as to one of the following:

                  (i) that such Lender is eligible to receive payments hereunder
      without deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax;

                  (ii) that such Lender is not eligible to receive payments
      hereunder without deduction or withholding of United States federal income
      tax as specified therein but does not require additional payments therefor
      pursuant to Section 2.14(a) or (c) because it is eligible and able to
      recover the full amount of any such deduction or withholding from a source
      other than the Borrower; or

                  (iii) that such Lender is not eligible to receive payments
      hereunder without deduction or withholding of United States federal income
      tax as specified therein and that it is not eligible and able to recover
      the full amount of the same from a source other than the Borrower.

If any form or document referred to in this subsection (e) requires the
disclosure of information, other than information necessary to compute the tax
payable and information required on the date hereof by

                                       22

<PAGE>

IRS Forms W-8BEN or W-8ECI, that any Lender reasonably considers to be
confidential, such Lender promptly shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent and shall not be obligated to include in such form or
document such confidential information; provided that such Lender certifies to
the Borrower that the failure to disclose such confidential information does not
increase the obligations of the Borrower under this Section 2.14.

            (f) For any period with respect to which a Lender has failed to
      provide the Borrower with the appropriate form described in Section
      2.14(e) (other than if such failure is due to a change in law occurring
      subsequent to the date on which a form originally was required to be
      provided, or if such form otherwise is not required under the first two
      sentences of subsection (e) above), such Lender shall not be entitled to
      indemnification under Section 2.14(c) with respect to Taxes imposed by any
      jurisdiction (including, without limitation, the United States); provided,
      however, that should a Lender become subject to Taxes because of its
      failure to deliver a form required hereunder, the Borrower shall take such
      steps as the Lender shall reasonably request to assist the Lender to
      recover such Taxes.

            (g) Without affecting its rights under this Section 2.14 or any
      provision of this Agreement, each Lender agrees that if any Taxes or Other
      Taxes are imposed and required by law to be paid or to be withheld from
      any amount payable to any Lender or its Applicable Lending Office with
      respect to which the Borrower would be obligated pursuant to this Section
      2.14 to increase any amounts payable to such Lender or to pay any such
      Taxes or Other Taxes, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to select
      an alternative Applicable Lending Office which would not result in the
      imposition of such Taxes or Other Taxes; provided, however, that no Lender
      shall be obligated to select an alternative Applicable Lending Office if
      such Lender determines that (i) as a result of such selection such Lender
      would be in violation of an applicable law, regulation, or treaty, or
      would incur unreasonable additional costs or expenses or (ii) such
      selection would be inadvisable for regulatory reasons or inconsistent with
      the interests of such Lender.

            (h) Each Lender agrees with the Borrower that it will take all
      reasonable actions by all usual means (i) to secure and maintain the
      benefit of all benefits available to it under the provisions of any
      applicable double tax treaty concluded by the United States of America to
      which it may be entitled by reason of the location of such Lender's
      Applicable Lending Office or place of incorporation or its status as an
      enterprise of any jurisdiction having any such applicable double tax
      treaty, if such benefit would reduce the amount payable by the Borrower in
      accordance with this Section 2.14 and (ii) otherwise to cooperate with the
      Borrower to minimize the amount payable by the Borrower pursuant to this
      Section 2.14; provided, however, that no Lender shall be obliged to
      disclose to the Borrower any information regarding its tax affairs or tax
      computations nor to reorder its tax affairs or tax planning pursuant
      hereto.

            (i) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the
      Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower
      contained in this Section 2.14 shall survive the payment in full of
      principal and interest on all Advances and the termination of this
      Agreement until such date as all applicable statutes of limitations
      (including any extensions thereof) have expired with respect to such
      agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in this Section 2.14.

            SECTION 2.15 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall obtain
any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right
of set-off, or otherwise) on account of the Advances made by it (other than
pursuant to Section 2.07, 2.11, 2.14, 8.04 or 8.08) in excess of its ratable
share of payments on account of the Advances obtained by all the Lenders, such
Lender shall

                                       23
<PAGE>

forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Advances
made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the
excess payment ratably with each of them, provided, however, that if all or any
portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing
Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall
repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such
recovery, together with an amount equal to such Lender's ratable share
(according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender's required
repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of
any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect
of the total amount so recovered. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so
purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.15
may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment
(including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as
if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such
participation.

            SECTION 2.16 Mandatory Assignment by a Lender; Mitigation. If any
Lender requests from the Borrower either payment of additional interest on
Eurocurrency Rate Advances pursuant to Section 2.07, or reimbursement for
increased costs pursuant to Section 2.11, or payment of or reimbursement for
Taxes pursuant to Section 2.14, or if any Lender notifies the Administrative
Agent that it is unlawful for such Lender or its Eurocurrency Lending Office to
perform its obligations hereunder pursuant to Section 2.12, (i) such Lender
will, upon three Business Days' notice by the Borrower to such Lender and the
Administrative Agent, to the extent not inconsistent with such Lender's internal
policies and applicable legal and regulatory restrictions, use reasonable
efforts to make, fund or maintain its Eurocurrency Rate Advances through another
Eurocurrency Lending Office of such Lender if (A) as a result thereof the
additional amounts required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.07, 2.11 or 2.14,
as applicable, in respect of such Eurocurrency Rate Advances would be materially
reduced or the provisions of Section 2.12 would not apply to such Lender, as
applicable, and (B) as determined by such Lender in good faith but in its sole
discretion, the making or maintaining of such Eurocurrency Rate Advances through
such other Eurocurrency Lending Office would not otherwise materially and
adversely affect such Eurocurrency Rate Advances or such Lender and (ii) unless
such Lender has theretofore taken steps to remove or cure, and has removed or
cured, the conditions creating such obligation to pay such additional amounts or
the circumstances described in Section 2.12, the Borrower may designate an
Eligible Assignee to purchase for cash (pursuant to an Assignment and
Acceptance) all, but not less than all, of the Advances then owing to such
Lender and all, but not less than all, of such Lender's rights and obligations
hereunder, without recourse to or warranty by, or expense to, such Lender, for a
purchase price equal to the outstanding principal amount of each such Advance
then owing to such Lender plus any accrued but unpaid interest thereon and any
accrued but unpaid fees owing thereto and, in addition, (A) all additional cost
reimbursements, expense reimbursements and indemnities, if any, owing in respect
of such Lender's Commitment hereunder, and all other accrued and unpaid amounts
owing to such Lender hereunder, at such time shall be paid to such Lender and
(B) if such Eligible Assignee is not otherwise a Lender at such time, the
applicable processing and recordation fee under Section 8.07(a) for such
assignment shall have been paid.

            SECTION 2.17 Evidence of Debt. (a) Each Lender shall maintain in
accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the
indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Advance owing to
such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest
payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. The Borrower agrees
that upon notice by any Lender to the Borrower (with a copy of such notice to
the Administrative Agent) to the effect that a promissory note or other evidence
of indebtedness is required or appropriate in order for such Lender to evidence
(whether for purposes of pledge, enforcement or otherwise) the Advances owing
to, or to be made by, such Lender, the Borrower shall promptly execute and
deliver to such Lender a promissory note or other evidence of indebtedness, in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and such Lender (each
a "NOTE"), payable to the order of such Lender in a principal amount

                                       24

<PAGE>

equal to the Commitment of such Lender;  provided,  however,  that the execution
and delivery of such promissory note or other evidence of indebtedness shall not
be a condition precedent to the making of any Advance under this Agreement.

            (b) The Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to
      Section 8.07(c) shall include a control account, and a subsidiary account
      for each Lender, in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i)
      the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder, the Type of Advances
      and currencies comprising such Borrowing and, if appropriate, the Interest
      Period applicable thereto, (ii) the terms of each Assumption Agreement and
      each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it, (iii) the
      amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and
      payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder, and (iv) the amount of
      any sum received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower hereunder
      and each Lender's share thereof.

            (c) Entries made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the
      Register pursuant to subsection (b) above, and by each Lender in its
      account or accounts pursuant to subsection (a) above, shall be prima facie
      evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to
      become due and payable from the Borrower to, in the case of the Register,
      each Lender and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender,
      under this Agreement, absent manifest error; provided, however, that the
      failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender to make an entry, or
      any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such account or
      accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the
      Borrower under this Agreement.

            SECTION 2.18 Use of Proceeds.The proceeds of the Advances shall be
available (and the Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds) to support
the obligations of the Borrower in respect of commercial paper issued by the
Borrower and/or for other general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries, including, but not limited to, the payment in full on the
Effective Date of all amounts due under the Replaced Loan Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.18, the Borrower will
not use the proceeds of any Advance to purchase the capital stock of any
corporation in a transaction, or as part of a series of transactions, (i) the
purpose of which is, at the time of any such purchase, to acquire control of
such corporation or (ii) the result of which is the ownership by the Borrower
and its Subsidiaries of 10% or more of the capital stock of such corporation, in
either case if the board of directors of such corporation has publicly announced
its opposition to such transaction.

            SECTION 2.19 Increase in the Aggregate Commitments. (a) The Borrower
may, at any time, by notice to the Administrative Agent, request that the
aggregate amount of the Commitments be increased by an amount of $25,000,000 or
an integral multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof (each a "COMMITMENT
INCREASE") to be effective as of a date that is at least 90 days prior to the
scheduled Termination Date then in effect (the "INCREASE DATE") as specified in
the related notice to the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that (i) in
no event shall the aggregate amount of the Commitments hereunder and the
aggregate amount of the commitments under the Existing Five-Year Credit
Agreement at any time exceed $7,500,000,000, and (ii) no Event of Default, or
event that with the giving of notice or passage of time or both would constitute
an Event of Default, shall have occurred and be continuing as of the date of
such request or as of the applicable Increase Date, or shall occur as a result
thereof.

            (b) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of a
      request by the Borrower for a Commitment Increase, which notice shall
      include (i) the proposed amount of such requested Commitment Increase,
      (ii) the proposed Increase Date and (iii) the date by which Lenders
      wishing to participate in the Commitment Increase must commit to an
      increase in the amount of their respective Commitments (the "COMMITMENT
      DATE"). Each Lender that is willing

                                       25

<PAGE>

      to participate in such requested Commitment Increase (each an "INCREASING
      LENDER") shall give written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior
      to the Commitment Date of the amount by which it is willing to increase
      its Commitment. If the Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that they
      are willing to increase the amount of their respective Commitments by an
      aggregate amount that exceeds the amount of the requested Commitment
      Increase, the requested Commitment Increase shall be allocated among the
      Lenders willing to participate therein in such amounts as are agreed
      between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

            (c) Promptly following each Commitment Date, the Administrative
      Agent shall notify the Borrower as to the amount, if any, by which the
      Lenders are willing to participate in the requested Commitment Increase.
      If the aggregate amount by which the Lenders are willing to participate in
      any requested Commitment Increase on any such Commitment Date is less than
      the requested Commitment Increase, then the Borrower may extend offers to
      one or more Eligible Assignees to participate in any portion of the
      requested Commitment Increase that has not been committed to by the
      Lenders as of the applicable Commitment Date; provided, however, that the
      Commitment of each such Eligible Assignee shall be in an amount of
      $25,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.

            (d) On each Increase Date, each Eligible Assignee that accepts an
      offer to participate in a requested Commitment Increase in accordance with
      Section 2.19(c) (each such Eligible Assignee and each Eligible Assignee
      that agrees to an extension of the Termination Date in accordance with
      Section 2.20(c), an "ASSUMING LENDER") shall become a Lender party to this
      Agreement as of such Increase Date and the Commitment of each Increasing
      Lender for such requested Commitment Increase shall be so increased by
      such amount (or by the amount allocated to such Lender pursuant to the
      last sentence of Section 2.19(b)) as of such Increase Date; provided,
      however, that the Administrative Agent shall have received on or before
      such Increase Date the following, each dated such date:

                  (i) (A) certified copies of resolutions of the Board of
      Directors of the Borrower or the Executive Committee of such Board
      approving the Commitment Increase and the corresponding modifications to
      this Agreement and (B) an opinion of counsel for the Borrower (which may
      be in-house counsel), in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto;

                  (ii) an assumption agreement from each Assuming Lender, if
      any, in form and substance satisfactory to the Borrower and the
      Administrative Agent (each an "ASSUMPTION AGREEMENT"), duly executed by
      such Eligible Assignee, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower; and

                  (iii) confirmation from each Increasing Lender of the increase
      in the amount of its Commitment in a writing satisfactory to the Borrower
      and the Administrative Agent.

            (e) On each Increase Date, upon fulfillment of the conditions set
      forth in the immediately preceding sentence of this Section 2.19(d), the
      Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders (including, without
      limitation, each Assuming Lender) and the Borrower, on or before 1:00 P.M.
      (New York City time), by telecopier, of the occurrence of the Commitment
      Increase to be effected on such Increase Date and shall record in the
      Register the relevant information with respect to each Increasing Lender
      and each Assuming Lender on such date.

            SECTION 2.20 Extension of Termination Date. (a) At least 45 days but
not more than 75 days prior to the next Anniversary Date, the Borrower, by
written notice to the Administrative Agent, may request an extension of the
Termination Date in effect at such time by one calendar year from its

                                       26

<PAGE>

then scheduled expiration; provided, however, that, if the Borrower does not
request an extension of the Termination Date in a timely manner prior to any
Anniversary Date it may, but shall not be obligated to, request that the
Termination Date be extended for two consecutive calendar years from its then
scheduled expiration by making a request therefor in a timely manner prior to
the next succeeding Anniversary Date. The Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify each Lender of such request, and each Lender shall in turn, in its sole
discretion, not later than 30 days prior to such next Anniversary Date, notify
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing as to whether such Lender
will consent to such extension. If any Lender shall fail to notify the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower in writing of its consent to any such
request for extension of the Termination Date at least 30 days prior to the next
Anniversary Date, such Lender shall be deemed to be a Declining Lender with
respect to such request. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower not
later than 25 days prior to such next Anniversary Date of the decision of the
Lenders regarding the Borrower's request for an extension of the Termination
Date.

            (b) If all of the Lenders consent in writing to any such request in
      accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.20, the Termination Date
      in effect at such time shall, effective as at such next Anniversary Date
      (the "EXTENSION DATE"), be extended for one calendar year or two calendar
      years, as properly requested; provided that on each Extension Date, no
      Event of Default, or event that with the giving of notice or passage of
      time or both would constitute an Event of Default, shall have occurred and
      be continuing, or shall occur as a consequence thereof. If less than all
      of the Lenders consent in writing to any such request in accordance with
      subsection (a) of this Section 2.20, the Termination Date in effect at
      such time shall, effective as at the applicable Extension Date, be
      extended as to those Lenders that so consented (each an "EXTENDING
      LENDER") but shall not be extended as to any other Lender (each a
      "DECLINING LENDER"). To the extent that the Termination Date is not
      extended as to any Lender pursuant to this Section 2.20 and the Commitment
      of such Lender is not assumed in accordance with subsection (c) of this
      Section 2.20 on or prior to the applicable Extension Date, the Commitment
      of such Declining Lender shall automatically terminate in whole on such
      unextended Termination Date without any further notice or other action by
      the Borrower, such Lender or any other Person and any outstanding Advances
      due to such Declining Lender shall be paid in full on such unextended
      Termination Date unless assumed pursuant to Section 2.20(c); provided that
      such Declining Lender's rights under Sections 2.11, 2.14, 8.04 and 8.08,
      and its obligations under Section 7.05, shall survive the Termination Date
      for such Lender as to matters occurring prior to such date. It is
      understood and agreed that no Lender shall have any obligation whatsoever
      to agree to any request made by the Borrower for any requested extension
      of the Termination Date.

            (c) If there are any Declining Lenders, the Borrower may arrange for
      one or more Extending Lenders or other Eligible Assignees (each such
      Eligible Assignee that accepts an offer to assume a Declining Lender's
      Commitment as of the applicable Extension Date being an "ASSUMING LENDER")
      to assume, effective as of the Extension Date, any Declining Lender's
      Commitment and all of the obligations of such Declining Lender under this
      Agreement thereafter arising, without recourse to or warranty by, or
      expense to, such Declining Lender; provided, however, that the amount of
      the Commitment of any such Assuming Lender as a result of such
      substitution shall in no event be less than $25,000,000 unless the amount
      of the Commitment of such Declining Lender is less than $25,000,000, in
      which case such Assuming Lender shall assume all of such lesser amount;
      and provided further that:

                  (i) any such Extending Lender or Assuming Lender shall have
      paid to such Declining Lender (A) the aggregate principal amount of, and
      any interest accrued and unpaid to the effective date of the assignment
      on, the outstanding Advances, if any, of such Declining Lender plus (B)
      any accrued but unpaid fees owing to such Declining Lender as of the
      effective date of such assignment;

                                       27

      other accrued and unpaid amounts owing to such Declining Lender hereunder,
      as of the effective date of such assignment shall have been paid to such

provided further that such Declining Lender's rights under Sections 2.11, 2.14,

      effect to any assignments and assumptions pursuant to subsection (c) of
      this Section 2.20) consent in writing to a requested extension (whether by
      written consent pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 2.20, by
      execution and delivery of an Assumption Agreement or otherwise) not later
      than one Business Day prior to such Extension Date, the Administrative
      Agent shall so notify the Borrower, and, so long as no Event of Default,
      or event that with the giving of notice or passage of time or both would
      constitute an Event of Default, shall have occurred and be continuing as
      of such Extension Date, or shall occur as a consequence thereof, the
      Termination Date then in effect shall be extended for the additional
      one-year period or two-year period, as the case may be, as described in
      subsection (a) of this Section 2.20, and all references in this Agreement,
      and in the Notes, if any, to the "Termination Date" shall, with respect to
      each Extending Lender and each Assuming Lender for such Extension Date,
      refer to the Termination Date as so extended. Promptly following each
      Extension Date, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders
      (including, without limitation, each Assuming Lender) of the extension of
      the scheduled Termination Date in effect immediately prior thereto and
      shall thereupon record in the Register the relevant information with
      respect to each such Extending Lender and each such Assuming Lender.

            SECTION 4.01 Representations and Warranties of the Borrower. The
Borrower represents and warrants as of the Effective Date and from time to time
thereafter as required under this Agreement as follows:

            (a) The Borrower is a corporation duly organized, validly existing
      and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. The
      Borrower, Disney and ABC are duly qualified and in good standing as
      foreign corporations authorized to do business in each jurisdiction (other
      than the respective jurisdictions of their incorporation) in which the
      nature of their respective activities or the character of the properties
      they own or lease make such qualification necessary and in which the
      failure so to qualify would have a material adverse effect on the
      financial condition or operations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries,
      taken as a whole.

            (b) The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of this
      Agreement and each of the Notes, if any, delivered hereunder are within
      the Borrower's corporate powers, have been duly authorized by all
      necessary corporate action, and do not contravene (i) the Borrower's
      charter or by-laws or (ii) any law, rule, regulation, order, writ,
      judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award or any material
      contractual restriction binding on or affecting the Borrower, Disney or
      ABC; no authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or
      filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body is required for
      the due execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of this
      Agreement or the Notes, if any; and this Agreement is and each of the
      Notes, when delivered hereunder, will be the legal, valid and binding
      obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance
      with their respective terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy,
      reorganization, insolvency, moratorium or similar laws affecting
      creditors' rights generally and general principles of equity.

            (c) The Borrower's most recent annual report on Form 10-K containing
      the consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and
      the related consolidated statements of income and of cash flows of the
      Borrower and its Subsidiaries, copies of which have been furnished to each
      Lender pursuant to Section 5.01(e)(ii) or as otherwise furnished to the
      Lenders, fairly present the consolidated financial condition of the
      Borrower and its Subsidiaries as at the date of such balance sheet and the
      consolidated results of operations of the Borrower and its

                                       30

<PAGE>

      Subsidiaries for the fiscal year ended on such date, all in accordance
      with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied.

            (d) There is no pending or, to the Borrower's knowledge, threatened
      claim, action or proceeding affecting the Borrower or any of its
      Subsidiaries which could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse
      effect on the financial condition or operations of the Borrower and its
      Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or which could reasonably be expected to
      affect the legality, validity or enforceability of this Agreement; and to
      the Borrower's knowledge, the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries have
      complied, and are in compliance, with all applicable laws, rules,
      regulations, permits, orders, consent decrees and judgments, except for
      any such matters which have not had, and would not reasonably be expected
      to have, a material adverse effect on the financial condition or
      operations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

            (e) The Borrower and the ERISA Affiliates have not incurred and are
      not reasonably expected to incur any material liability in connection with
      their Single Employer Plans or Multiple Employer Plans, other than
      ordinary liabilities for benefits; neither the Borrower nor any ERISA
      Affiliate has incurred or is reasonably expected to incur any material
      withdrawal liability (as defined in Part I of Subtitle E of Title IV of
      ERISA) to any Multiemployer Plan; and no Multiemployer Plan of the
      Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate is reasonably expected to be in
      reorganization or to be terminated, within the meaning of Title IV of
      ERISA.

            SECTION 4.02 Additional Representations and Warranties of the
Borrower as of Each Increase Date and Each Extension Date. The Borrower
represents and warrants on each Increase Date and each Extension Date (and at no
other time) that, as of each such date, the following statements shall be true:

            (a) there has been no material adverse change in the business,
      financial condition or operations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries,

      the Borrower and its Subsidiaries most recently delivered to the Lenders
      pursuant to Section 5.01(e)(ii) prior to the applicable Increase Date or
      Extension Date, as the case may be (except as disclosed in periodic or
      other reports filed by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries pursuant to
      Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, during the
      period from the date of the most recently delivered audited financial
      statements of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries pursuant to Section
      5.01(e)(ii) to the date of the request for an increase in the aggregate
      Commitments related to such Increase Date or for an extension of the
      Termination Date then in effect related to such Extension Date, as the
      case may be); and

            (b) the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.01 are
      correct in all material respects on and as of such date, as though made on
      and as of such date (except to the extent that such representations and
      warranties relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations
      and warranties shall have been correct in all material respects on and as
      of such earlier date).

                                   ARTICLE V
                            COVENANTS OF THE BORROWER

<PAGE>

      decrees and judgments binding on the Borrower and its Subsidiaries,
      including ERISA and the Patriot Act, the failure with which to comply

      operations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

            (b) Payment of Taxes, Etc. Pay and discharge, and cause each of its
      Subsidiaries to pay and discharge, before the same shall become

      adverse effect on the financial condition or operations of the Borrower
      and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, (i) all taxes, assessments and
      governmental charges or levies imposed upon it or upon its property, and
      (ii) all lawful claims which, if unpaid, will by law become a Lien upon
      its property; provided, however, that neither the Borrower nor any of its
      Subsidiaries shall be required to pay or discharge any such tax,
      assessment, charge, levy or claim which is being contested in good faith
      and by proper proceedings and as to which appropriate reserves are being
      maintained in accordance with GAAP.

            (c) Preservation of Corporate Existence, Etc. Subject to Section

      taken as a whole; and provided further, however, that neither Disney nor
      ABC shall be required to preserve its corporate existence if the loss
      thereof would not have a material adverse effect on the business,

            (e) The Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall fail to pay any
      principal of or premium or interest on any Debt of the Borrower or such
      Subsidiary which is outstanding in a principal amount of at least
      $250,000,000 in the aggregate (but excluding Debt arising hereunder), when
      the same becomes due and payable (whether by scheduled maturity, required
      prepayment, acceleration, demand or otherwise), and such failure (i) shall
      continue after the applicable grace period, if any, specified in the
      agreement or instrument relating to such Debt and (ii) shall not have been
      cured or waived; or any other event shall occur or condition shall exist
      under any agreement or instrument relating to any such Debt and shall
      continue after the applicable grace period, if any, specified in such
      agreement or instrument, if the effect of such event or condition is to
      accelerate, or to permit the acceleration of, the maturity of such Debt;
      or any such Debt shall be declared to be due and payable, or required to
      be prepaid (other than by a regularly scheduled required prepayment),
      redeemed, purchased or defeased, or an offer to prepay, redeem, purchase
      or defease such Debt shall be required to be made, in each case prior to
      the stated maturity thereof; or

            (f) The Borrower or any Material Subsidiary shall generally not pay
      its Debts as such Debts become due, or shall admit in writing its
      inability to pay its Debts generally, or shall make a general assignment
      for the benefit of creditors; or any proceeding shall be instituted by or

      against the Borrower or any Material Subsidiary seeking to adjudicate it a
      bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking liquidation, winding up, reorganization,
      arrangement, adjustment, protection, relief, or composition of it or its
      debts under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization
      or relief of debtors, or seeking the entry of an order for relief or the
      appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official
      for it or for substantially all of its property and, in the case of any
      such proceeding instituted against it (but not instituted by it), either
      such proceeding shall remain undismissed or unstayed for a period of 60
      days or any of the actions sought in such proceeding (including, without
      limitation, the entry of an order for relief against, or the appointment
      of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for, it or for
      any substantial part of its property) shall occur; or the Borrower or any
      Material Subsidiary shall take any corporate action to authorize any of
      the actions set forth above in this subsection (f); or

            (g) Any money judgment, writ or warrant of attachment or similar
      process against the Borrower, any Material Subsidiary or any of their

      or unstayed for a period of 30 days or, in any case, within five days of
      any pending sale or disposition of any asset pursuant to any such process;

then, and in any such event, the Administrative Agent shall at the request, or
may with the consent, of the Majority Lenders, by notice to the Borrower, (A)
declare the obligation of each Lender to make Advances to be terminated,
whereupon the same shall forthwith terminate, and (B) declare the Advances, all
interest thereon and all other amounts payable under this Agreement to be
forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or further
notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower;
provided, however, that in the event of an actual or deemed entry of an order
for relief with respect to the Borrower under the Federal Bankruptcy Code, (A)
the obligation of each Lender to make Advances shall automatically be
terminated, and (B) the Advances, all such interest and all such amounts shall
automatically become and be due and payable, without presentment, demand,
protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the
Borrower.

                                  ARTICLE VII
                            THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

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

            (b) The Syndication Agent, the Co-Documentation Agents and the
      Arrangers shall have no duties under this Agreement other than those
      afforded to them in their capacities as Lenders, and each Lender hereby
      acknowledges that the Syndication Agent, the Co-Documentation Agents and
      the Arrangers have no liability under this Agreement other than those
      assumed by them in their capacities as Lenders.

                                       35

<PAGE>

            SECTION 7.02 Administrative Agent's Reliance, Etc. Neither the
Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees
shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it
or them under or in connection with this Agreement, except for its or their own
gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the generality of
the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: (i) may treat the Lender which made any
Advance as the holder of the Debt resulting therefrom until the Administrative
Agent receives and accepts an Assumption Agreement entered into by an Assuming
Lender as provided in Section 2.19 or 2.20, as the case may be, or an Assignment
and Acceptance entered into by such Lender, as assignor, and an Eligible
Assignee, as assignee, as provided in Section 8.07; (ii) may consult with legal
counsel (including counsel for the Borrower), independent public accountants and
other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or
omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such
counsel, accountants or experts; (iii) makes no warranty or representation to
any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any statements,
warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection
with this Agreement; (iv) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as
to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of
this Agreement on the part of the Borrower or to inspect the property (including
the books and records) of the Borrower; (v) shall not be responsible to any
Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness,
sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any instrument or document furnished
pursuant hereto; and (vi) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this
Agreement by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or
writing (which may be by telecopier) believed by it to be genuine and signed or
sent by the proper party or parties.

            SECTION 7.03 CUSA and Affiliates. With respect to its Commitment and
the Advances made by it and any Note or Notes issued to it, CUSA shall have the
same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise
the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent; and the term "Lender"
or "Lenders" shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include CUSA in its
individual capacity. CUSA and its respective Affiliates may accept deposits
from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, accept investment
banking engagements from, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the
Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries and any Person who may do business with or own
securities of the Borrower or any such Subsidiary, all as if CUSA was not the
Administrative Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

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

            SECTION 7.05 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the
Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower), ratably
according to the respective principal amounts of Advances then owing to each of
them (or, if no Advances are at the time outstanding or if any Advances are then
owing to Persons which are not Lenders, ratably according to the respective
amounts of their Commitments), from and against any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed
on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way
relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by
the Administrative Agent under this Agreement; provided that no Lender shall be
liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting
from the Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without
limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees

                                       36

<PAGE>

to reimburse the Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share
of any out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred by
the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution,
delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether
through negotiations, legal or bankruptcy proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal
advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, to the
extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the
Borrower.

            SECTION 7.06 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative
Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and
the Borrower and such resignation shall be effective upon the appointment of a
successor Administrative Agent as provided herein. Upon any such resignation,
the Majority Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative
Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the
Majority Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after
the retiring Administrative Agent's giving of notice of resignation, then the
retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor
Administrative Agent. Any successor Administrative Agent appointed hereunder
shall be a commercial bank organized or licensed under the laws of the United
States or of any State thereof, or an Affiliate of any such commercial bank,
having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000. Upon the
acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor
Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon
succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion, privileges
and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative
Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement.
After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation hereunder as
Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article VII shall inure to its
benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was
Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

                                  ARTICLE VIII
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

            SECTION 8.01 Amendments, Etc. (a) No amendment or waiver of any
provision of this Agreement, nor consent to any departure by the Borrower
therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing
and signed by the Majority Lenders, and then such waiver or consent shall be
effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which
given; provided, however, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in
writing and signed by all the Lenders (other than the Borrower or any of its
Affiliates, if a Lender, at the time of any such amendment, waiver or consent),
do any of the following: (a) waive any of the conditions specified in Section
3.01 or 3.02, (b) increase the Commitments of the Lenders (other than as
provided in Section 2.19) or subject the Lenders to any additional obligations,
(c) reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Advances or the fees payable
hereunder, (d) postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or
interest on, the Advances (other than as provided in Section 2.20) or any fee,
(e) change the percentage of the Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid
principal amount of Advances, or the number of Lenders, which shall be required
for the Lenders or any of them to take any action hereunder or (f) amend this
Section 8.01; and provided further that no amendment, waiver or consent shall,
unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent, in addition to the
Lenders required above to take such action, affect the rights or duties of the
Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any Note.

            (b) Limitation of Scope. All waivers and consents granted under this
      Section 8.01 shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the
      specific purpose for which given.

            SECTION 8.02 SECTION 8.02. Notices, Etc. (a) All notices and other
communications provided for hereunder shall be either (x) in writing (including
telecopier, telegraphic or telex communication) and mailed, telecopied,
telegraphed, telexed or delivered or (y) as and to the extent

19720, Attention: Global Loans Support - Agency Department, Telecopier number
(212) 994 0961; or, as to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, at such
other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the
other parties and, as to each other party, at such other address as shall be
designated by such party in a written notice to the Borrower and the

delivered to the telegraph company or confirmed by e-mail, respectively, except
that notices and communications to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article

            (b) So long as Citibank or any of its Affiliates is the
      Administrative Agent, materials required to be delivered pursuant to
      Section 5.01(e)(i) and (ii) shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent
      in an electronic medium in a format acceptable to the Administrative Agent
      and the Lenders by e-mail at oploanswebadmin@citigroup.com. The Borrower
      agrees that the Administrative Agent may make such materials, as well as
      any other written information, documents, instruments and other material
      relating to the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any other materials
      or matters relating to this Agreement, the Notes or any of the
      transactions contemplated hereby (collectively, the "COMMUNICATIONS")
      available to the Lenders by posting such notices on Intralinks,
      "E-DISCLOSURE", the Administrative Agent's internet delivery system that
      is part of Fixed Income Direct, Global Fixed Income's primary web portal,
      or a substantially similar electronic system (the "PLATFORM"). The
      Borrower acknowledges that (i) the distribution of material through an
      electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are
      confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution, (ii)
      the Platform is provided "as is" and "as available" and (iii) neither the
      Administrative Agent nor any of its Affiliates warrants the accuracy,
      adequacy or completeness of the Communications or the Platform and each
      expressly disclaims liability for errors or omissions in the
      Communications or the Platform. No warranty of any kind, express, implied
      or statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of
      merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of
      third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made
      by the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in connection with
      the Platform.

            (c) Each Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next
      sentence) (a "Notice") specifying that any Communications have been posted
      to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of such information,
      documents or other materials to such Lender for purposes of this
      Agreement; provided that if requested by any Lender the Administrative
      Agent shall deliver a copy of the Communications to such Lender by email
      or telecopier. Each Lender agrees (i) to notify the Agent in writing of
      such Lender's e-mail address to which a Notice may be sent by electronic
      transmission (including by electronic communication) on or before the date
      such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time
      thereafter to ensure that the

                                       38

<PAGE>

      Administrative Agent has on record an effective e-mail address for such
      Lender) and (ii) that any Notice may be sent to such e-mail address.

            SECTION 8.03 No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any
Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any
right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are
cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

            SECTION 8.04 Costs and Expenses. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay,
within five Business Days of demand, all actual and reasonable costs and
expenses, if any (including, without limitation, actual and reasonable counsel
fees and expenses), of the Administrative Agent and each Lender in connection
with the enforcement (whether through legal proceedings or otherwise) of this
Agreement and the other instruments and documents to be delivered hereunder,
including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and expenses in
connection with the enforcement of rights under this Section 8.04(a).

            (b) If any payment of principal of, or Conversion of, any
      Eurocurrency Rate Advance is made other than on the last day of the
      Interest Period for such Advance, as a result of a payment or Conversion
      pursuant to Section 2.08(f) or 2.10 or acceleration of the maturity of the
      Advances pursuant to Section 6.01 or for any other reason (other than by
      reason of a payment pursuant to Section 2.12), the Borrower shall, within
      five Business Days of demand by any Lender (with a copy of such demand to
      the Administrative Agent), pay to such Lender any amounts required to
      compensate such Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses which
      it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or Conversion,
      including, without limitation, any loss, cost or expense incurred by
      reason of the liquidation or redeployment of deposits or other funds
      acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain such Advance.

            SECTION 8.05 Right of Set-off. Upon (i) the occurrence and during
the continuance of any Event of Default and (ii) the making of the request or
the granting of the consent specified by Section 6.01 to authorize the
Administrative Agent to declare the Advances due and payable pursuant to the
provisions of Section 6.01, each Lender (and, in the case of CUSA, Citibank) is
hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special,
time or demand, provisional or final, but excluding trust accounts) at any time
held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender (and, in the case
of CUSA, Citibank) to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against
any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under
this Agreement, whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this
Agreement. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such
setoff and application made by such Lender (and, in the case of CUSA, Citibank);
provided, that, the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of
such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender (and, in the case of
CUSA, Citibank) under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies
(including, without limitation, other rights of setoff) which such Lender may
have.

            SECTION 8.06 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective
(other than Section 2.01, which shall only become effective upon satisfaction of
the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.01) when it shall have been
executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Co-Documentation
Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by each Initial
Lender that such Initial Lender has executed it and, thereafter, shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent,
each Co-Documentation Agent and each Lender and their respective successors and
permitted assigns, except that the Borrower shall not have the right to assign
its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of
the Lenders.

and, if requested by the Borrower upon notice by the Borrower delivered to such
Lender and the Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (ii) of Section 2.16,
will, assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights
and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a
portion of its Commitment and the Advances owing to it and any Note or Notes
held by it; provided, however, that (i) each such assignment shall be of a
constant, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under this
Agreement, (ii) the amount (without duplication) of the Commitment and pro-rata
share of outstanding Advances of the assigning Lender being assigned pursuant to
each such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and
Acceptance) shall not be less than $12,500,000 (unless such lesser amount is
previously agreed among such assigning Lender, the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower) or an integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof, (iii) the sum
of (A) the amount (without duplication) of the Commitment and pro-rata share of
outstanding Advances of the assigning Lender being assigned pursuant to each
such assignment and (B) the amount of the commitment and pro-rata share of
outstanding advances of the assigning Lender being contemporaneously assigned

Acceptance or similar agreement with respect to such assignments) shall not be
less than $25,000,000 in the aggregate (unless such lesser amount is previously
agreed among such assigning Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower)
or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, provided, however, that
if the aggregate amount of the Commitment of such assigning Lender hereunder and
its commitment under the Existing Five-Year Credit Agreement is less than
$25,000,000 on the date of such proposed assignments, such assigning Lender
shall assign all, but not less than all, of its remaining rights and obligations
under this Agreement and the Existing Five-Year Credit Agreement (unless an
assignment of a portion of such assigning Lender's obligations hereunder and
thereunder is otherwise previously agreed among such assigning Lender, the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower), (iv) each such assignment shall be to an
Eligible Assignee, and (v) the parties to each such assignment (other than the
Borrower) shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its
acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance, together
with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500. Upon such execution, delivery,
acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in each
Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto
and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to
it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations
of a Lender hereunder and (y) the Lender assignor thereunder shall, to the
extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant
to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights (other than any rights
such Lender assignor may have under Sections 2.11, 2.14 and 8.08) and be
released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an
Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning
Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to
be a party hereto).

            (b) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the
      Lender assignor thereunder and the assignee thereunder confirm to and
      agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other
      than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender
      makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with
      respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in
      connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity,
      enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any
      instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (ii) such assigning
      Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility
      with respect to the financial condition of the Borrower or any of its

      its obligations under this Agreement or any instrument or document
      furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has
      received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the financial
      statements referred to in Section 4.01(c) and such other documents and
      information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis
      and decision to enter into such

                                       40

<PAGE>

      Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and
      without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, such assigning Lender or
      any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall
      deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in
      taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) such assignee
      confirms that it is an Eligible Assignee; (vi) such assignee appoints and
      authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its
      behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated
      to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers
      as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that
      it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations
      which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as
      a Lender.

            (c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its address referred
      to in Section 8.02 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance and each
      Assumption Agreement delivered to and accepted by it and a register for
      the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the
      Commitment of, and principal amount of the Advances owing to, each Lender
      from time to time (the "REGISTER"). The entries in the Register shall be
      conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the
      Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person
      whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all
      purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection
      by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time
      upon reasonable prior notice.

            (d) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an
      assigning Lender and an assignee representing that it is an Eligible
      Assignee and, if applicable, the Borrower, together with any Note subject
      to such assignment, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and
      Acceptance has been completed and is in substantially the form of Exhibit
      B hereto, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the
      information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice
      thereof to the Borrower.

            (e) Each Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or
      other entities in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations
      under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of
      its Commitment and the Advances owing to it and any Note issued to it
      hereunder); provided, however, that (i) such Lender's obligations under
      this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitment hereunder)
      shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible
      to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii)
      the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall
      continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with
      such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, and (iv) such
      Lender shall not agree in any participation agreement with any participant
      or proposed participant to obtain the consent of such participant before
      agreeing to the amendment, modification or waiver of any of the terms of
      this Agreement or any Note, before consenting to any action or failure to
      act by the Borrower or any other party hereunder or under any Note, or
      before exercising any rights it may have in respect thereof, unless such
      amendment, modification, waiver, consent or exercise would (A) increase
      the amount of such participant's portion of such Lender's Commitment, (B)
      reduce the principal amount of or rate of interest on the Advances, or any
      fee or other amounts payable hereunder to which such participant would be
      entitled to receive a share under such participation agreement, or (C)
      postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of or interest on the
      Advances, for amounts due with respect to any fee or other amounts payable
      hereunder to which such participant would be entitled to receive a share
      under such participation agreement.

            (f) Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or
      participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this
      Section 8.07, disclose to the assignee or participant or

                                       41

<PAGE>

      proposed assignee or participant any information relating to the Borrower
      furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower in writing and
      directly related to the transactions contemplated hereunder; provided
      that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant or
      proposed assignee or participant shall agree to preserve the
      confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the Borrower
      received by it from such Lender in accordance with the terms of Section
      8.09.

            (g) No participation or assignment hereunder shall be made in
      violation of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended from time to time, or
      any applicable state securities laws, and each Lender hereby represents
      that it will make any Advance for its own account in the ordinary course
      of its business and not with a view to the public distribution or sale
      thereof.

            (h) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, any
      Lender may at any time create a security interest in all or any portion of
      its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the
      Advances owing to it and any Note issued to it hereunder) in favor of any
      Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of
      Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor regulation
      thereto) and the applicable operating circular of such Federal Reserve
      Bank.

            SECTION 8.08 Indemnification. The Borrower agrees to indemnify and
hold harmless the Administrative Agent, each Co-Documentation Agent and each
Lender and each of their Affiliates and their respective officers, directors,
employees, agents and advisors (each an "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") from and against
any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including,
without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) that may be
incurred by or asserted against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out
of or in connection with or by reason of, or in connection with the preparation
for a defense of, any investigation, litigation or proceeding (whether or not an
Indemnified Party is a party thereto) arising out of, related to or in
connection with the Commitments hereunder or the Advances made pursuant hereto
or any transactions done in connection herewith, including, without limitation,
any transaction in which any proceeds of the Advances are, or are proposed, to
be applied, (collectively, the "INDEMNIFIED MATTERS"); provided that the
Borrower shall have no obligation to any Indemnified Party under this Section
8.08 with respect to (i) matters for which such Indemnified Party has been
reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to any other provision of
this Agreement, but only to the extent of such reimbursement, or (ii)
Indemnified Matters found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted
from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnified Party. If
any action is brought against any Indemnified Party, such Indemnified Party
shall promptly notify the Borrower in writing of the institution of such action
and the Borrower shall thereupon have the right, at its option, to elect to
assume the defense of such action; provided, however, that the Borrower shall
not, in assuming the defense of any Indemnified Party in any Indemnified Matter,
agree to any dismissal or settlement of such Indemnified Matter without the
prior written consent of such Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld, if such dismissal or settlement (A) would require any
admission or acknowledgment of culpability or wrongdoing by such Indemnified
Party or (B) would provide for any nonmonetary relief to any Person to be
performed by such Indemnified Party. If the Borrower so elects, it shall
promptly assume the defense of such action, including the employment of counsel
(reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party) and payment of expenses.
Such Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ its or their own counsel
in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the
expense of such Indemnified Party unless (1) the employment of such counsel
shall have been authorized in writing by the Borrower in connection with the
defense of such action or (2) the Borrower shall not have properly employed
counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party to have charge of the
defense of such action, in which case such fees and expenses shall be paid by
the Borrower. If an Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded (based
upon the advice of counsel) that the representation by one counsel of such
Indemnified Party and the Borrower creates a conflict of

                                       42

<PAGE>

interest for such counsel, the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel
shall be borne by the Borrower and the Borrower shall not have the right to
direct the defense of such action on behalf of such Indemnified Party (but shall
retain the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the
Borrower). Anything in this Section 8.08 to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Borrower shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel
for any Indemnified Party in any jurisdiction as to any Indemnified Matter or
for any settlement of any Indemnified Matter effected without its written
consent. All obligations of the Borrower under this Section 8.08 shall survive
the making and repayment of the Advances and the termination of this Agreement.

            SECTION 8.09 Confidentiality. None of the Administrative Agent or
Lenders may disclose to any Person any confidential, proprietary or non-public
information of the Borrower furnished to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders
by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (such information being referred to
collectively herein as the "BORROWER INFORMATION"), except that each of the
Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders may disclose Borrower Information
(i) to its and its Affiliates' employees, officers, directors, agents, auditors
and advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is
made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Borrower Information
and instructed to keep such Borrower Information confidential on substantially
the same terms as provided herein), (ii) to the extent requested by any
regulatory authority, (iii) to the extent required by applicable laws or
regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (iv) to any other party
to this Agreement, (v) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder
or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement
of rights hereunder, (vi) subject to an agreement containing provisions
substantially the same as those of this Section 8.09 to any assignee of or
participant in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in, any of its
rights or obligations under this Agreement, (vii) to the extent such Borrower
Information (A) is or becomes generally available to the public on a
non-confidential basis other than as a result of a breach of this Section 8.09
by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, or (B) is or becomes available to
the Administrative Agent or such Lender on a non-confidential basis from a
source other than the Borrower, provided such source is not bound by a
confidentiality agreement or other legal or fiduciary obligations of secrecy
with the Borrower with respect to the Borrower Information, and (viii) with the
consent of the Borrower.

            SECTION 8.10 Patriot Act. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent
hereby notifies the Borrower that, pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot
Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the
Borrower, which information includes names and addresses and other information
that will allow it to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.

            SECTION 8.11 Judgment. (a) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment
in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in Dollars into
another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may
effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in
accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could
purchase Dollars with such other currency at Citibank's principal office in
London at 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the Business Day preceding that on which
final judgment is given.

            (b) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is
      necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in a Committed Currency into
      Dollars, the parties agree to the fullest extent that they may effectively
      do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance
      with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase
      such Committed Currency with Dollars at Citibank's principal office in
      London at 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the Business Day preceding that on
      which final judgment is given.

            (c) The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any sum due from it
      in any currency (the "PRIMARY CURRENCY") to any Lender or the
      Administrative Agent hereunder shall,

                                       43

<PAGE>

      notwithstanding any judgment in any other currency, be discharged only to
      the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or
      the Administrative Agent (as the case may be), of any sum adjudged to be
      so due in such other currency, such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as
      the case may be) may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase
      the applicable Primary Currency with such other currency; if the amount of
      the applicable Primary Currency so purchased is less than such sum due to
      such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) in the
      applicable Primary Currency, the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation
      and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the
      Administrative Agent (as the case may be) against such loss, and if the
      amount of the applicable Primary Currency so purchased exceeds such sum
      due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) in the
      applicable Primary Currency, such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as
      the case may be) agrees to remit to the Borrower such excess.

            SECTION 8.12 Consent to Jurisdiction and Service of Process. All
judicial proceedings brought against the Borrower with respect to this Agreement
or any instrument or other documents delivered hereunder may be brought in any
state or federal court in the Borough of Manhattan in the State of New York, and
by execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Borrower accepts, for itself
and in connection with its properties, generally and unconditionally, the
nonexclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts, and irrevocably agrees to be
bound by any final judgment rendered thereby in connection with this Agreement
or any instrument or other document delivered hereunder from which no appeal has
been taken or is available. The Borrower agrees to receive service of process in
any such proceeding in any such court at its office at 77 West 66th Street, 15th
Floor, New York, New York 10023, Attention: Kenneth E. Newman (or at such other
address in the Borough of Manhattan in the State of New York as the Borrower
shall notify the Administrative Agent from time to time) and, if the Borrower
ever ceases to maintain such office in the Borough of Manhattan, irrevocably
designates and appoints CT Corporation System, 1633 Broadway, New York, New York
10019, or any other address in the State of New York communicated by CT
Corporation System to the Administrative Agent, as its agent to receive on its
behalf service of all process in any such proceeding in any such court, such
service being hereby acknowledged by the Borrower to be effective and binding
service in every respect.

            SECTION 8.13 Substitution of Currency. If a change in any Committed
Currency occurs pursuant to any applicable law, rule or regulation of any
governmental, monetary or multi-national authority, this Agreement (including,
without limitation, the definition of Eurocurrency Rate) will be amended to the
extent determined by the Administrative Agent (acting reasonably, in
consultation with the Borrower and in accordance with the terms of Section 8.01
hereof) to be necessary to reflect the change in currency and to put the Lenders
and the Borrower in the same position, so far as possible, that they would have
been in if no change in such Committed Currency had occurred.

            SECTION 8.14 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and
construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

            SECTION 8.15 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in
separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an
original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same
agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this
Agreement by telecopier shall be effective as delivery of an original executed
counterpart of this Agreement. A full set of executed counterparts of this
Agreement shall be lodged with the Administrative Agent and the Borrower.

            SECTION 8.16 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is
prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction,
be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without
invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such

                                       44

<PAGE>

prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or
render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

                                       45

            IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to
be executed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized, as of the
date first above written.
