                      REVERSE SIDE OF CERTIFICATED SECURITY

                          GLOBAL IMAGING SYSTEMS, INC.
                4% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008

     1.   Interest

     The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note
at the rate of 4% per annum. The Company shall pay interest semiannually on May
1 and November 15 of each year, commencing November 15, 2003. Interest on the
Notes shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or,
if no interest has been paid, from May 16, 2003; provided, however, that if
there is not an existing default in the payment of interest and if this Note is
authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next
succeeding interest payment date, interest shall accrue from such interest
payment date. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve
30-day months. Any reference herein to interest accrued or payable as of any
date shall include any Additional Interest accrued or payable on such date as
provided in the Registration Rights Agreement.

     2.   Method of Payment

     The Company shall pay interest on this Note (except defaulted interest) to
the person who is the Holder of this Note at the close of business on May 1 or
November 1, as the case may be, next preceding the related interest payment
date. The Holder must surrender this Note to a Paying Agent to collect payment
of principal. The Company will pay principal and interest in money of the United
States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and
private debts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as this Note is registered
in the name of a Depositary or its nominee, all payments hereon shall be made by
wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Depositary or
its nominee.

     3.   Paying Agent, Registrar and Conversion Agent

     Initially, The Bank of New York (the "Trustee", which term shall include
any successor trustee under the Indenture hereinafter referred to) will act as
Paying Agent, Registrar and Conversion Agent. The Company may change any Paying
Agent, Registrar or Conversion Agent without notice to the Holder. The Company
or any of its Subsidiaries may, subject to certain limitations set forth in the
Indenture, act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

     4.   Indenture, Limitations

     This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Company
and guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of the Company (the "Guarantors"),
designated as its 4% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008, issued
under an Indenture dated as of May 16, 2003 (together with any supplemental
indentures thereto, the "Indenture"), among the Company, the Guarantors and the
Trustee. The terms of this Note include those stated in the Indenture and those
required by or made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture
Act of 1939,

                                       6

<PAGE>

as amended, as in effect on the date of the Indenture. This Note is subject to
all such terms, and the Holder of this Note is referred to the Indenture and
said Act for a statement of those terms.

     The Notes are senior subordinated obligations of the Company limited to
$57,500,000 aggregate principal amount. The Indenture does not limit other debt
of the Company, secured or unsecured.

     5.   Optional Redemption

     The Notes are subject to redemption, at any time on or after May 20, 2006,
as a whole or from time to time in part, at the election of the Company. The
Redemption Prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount) are as
follows for Notes redeemed during the periods set forth below:

                            Period                              Redemption Price
-------------------------------------------------------------   ----------------
May 20, 2006 through May 14, 2007............................        101.6%
May 15, 2007 through May 14, 2008............................        100.8%
May 15, 2008 and thereafter..................................          100%

in each case together with accrued interest up to but not including the
Redemption Date; provided that if the Redemption Date falls after an interest
payment record date and on or before an interest payment date, then the interest
will be payable to the Holders in whose names the Notes are registered at the
close of business on the relevant interest payment record dates.

     No sinking fund is provided for the Notes.

     6.   Notice of Redemption

     Notice of redemption will be mailed by first-class mail at least 20 days
but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes to
be redeemed at its registered address. Notes in denominations larger than $1,000
may be redeemed in part, but only in whole multiples of $1,000. On and after the
Redemption Date, subject to the deposit with the Paying Agent of funds
sufficient to pay the Redemption Price plus accrued interest, if any, accrued
to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, interest shall cease to accrue on Notes
or portions of them called for redemption.

     7.   Purchase of Notes at Option of Holder Upon a Change in Control

     At the option of the Holder and subject to the terms and conditions of the
Indenture, the Company shall become obligated to purchase all or any part
specified by the Holder (so long as the principal amount of such part is $1,000
or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of the Notes held by such
Holder on the date that is 30 Business Days after the occurrence of a Change in
Control, at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof
together with accrued interest up to, but excluding, the Change in Control
Purchase Date. The Holder shall have the right to withdraw any Change in Control
Purchase Notice (in whole or in a portion thereof that is $1,000 or an integral
multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) at any time prior to the

                                       7

<PAGE>

close of business on the Business Day next preceding the Change in Control
Purchase Date by delivering a written notice of withdrawal to the Paying Agent
in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.

     8.   Conversion

     A Holder of a Note may convert the principal amount of such Note (or any
portion thereof equal to $1,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess
thereof) into shares of Common Stock at any time prior to the close of business
on November 14, 2008; provided, however, that if the Note is called for
redemption or subject to purchase upon a Change in Control, the conversion right
will terminate at the close of business on the Business Day immediately
preceding the Redemption Date or the Change in Control Purchase Date, as the
case may be, for such Note or such earlier date as the Holder presents such Note
for redemption or purchase (unless the Company shall default in making the
redemption payment or Change in Control Purchase Price, as the case may be, when
due, in which case the conversion right shall terminate at the close of business
on the date such default is cured and such Note is redeemed or purchased).

     The initial Conversion Price is $23.892 per share, subject to adjustment
under certain circumstances as provided in the Indenture. The number of shares
of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of a Note is determined by dividing the
principal amount of the Note or portion thereof converted by the Conversion
Price in effect on the Conversion Date. No fractional shares will be issued upon
conversion; in lieu thereof, an amount will be paid in cash based upon the
Closing Price (as defined in the Indenture) of the Common Stock on the Trading
Day immediately prior to the Conversion Date.

     To convert a Note, a Holder must (a) complete and manually sign the
conversion notice set forth below and deliver such notice to a Conversion Agent,
(b) surrender the Note to a Conversion Agent, (c) furnish appropriate
endorsements and transfer documents if required by a Registrar or a Conversion
Agent and (d) pay any transfer or similar tax, if required. Notes so surrendered
for conversion (in whole or in part) during the period from the close of
business on any regular record date to the opening of business on the next
succeeding interest payment date (excluding Notes or portions thereof called for
redemption or subject to purchase upon a Change in Control on a Redemption Date
or Change in Control Purchase Date, as the case may be, during the period
beginning at the close of business on a regular record date and ending at the
opening of business on the first Business Day after the next succeeding interest
payment date) shall also be accompanied by payment in funds acceptable to the
Company of an amount equal to the interest payable on such interest payment date
on the principal amount of such Note then being converted, and such interest
shall be payable to such registered Holder notwithstanding the conversion of
such Note, subject to the provisions of this Indenture relating to the payment
of defaulted interest by the Company. If the Company defaults in the payment of
interest payable on such interest payment date, the Company shall promptly repay
such funds to such Holder. A Holder may convert a portion of a Note equal to
$1,000 or any integral multiple thereof.

     A Note in respect of which a Holder had delivered a Change in Control
Purchase Notice exercising the option of such Holder to require the Company to
purchase such Note may be

                                       8

<PAGE>

converted only if the Change in Control Purchase Notice is withdrawn in
accordance with the terms of the Indenture.

     9.   Conversion Arrangement on Call for Redemption

     Any Notes called for redemption, unless surrendered for conversion before
the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption
Date, may be deemed to be purchased from the Holders of such Notes at an amount
not less than the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest, if any, to,
but not including, the Redemption Date, by one or more investment bankers or
other purchasers who may agree with the Company to purchase such Notes from the
Holders, to convert them into Common Stock of the Company and to make payment
for such Notes to the Paying Agent in trust for such Holders.

     10.  Subordination

     The indebtedness evidenced by the Notes is, to the extent and in the manner
provided in the Indenture, subordinate and junior in right of payment to the
prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness of the Company. The
indebtedness evidenced by the Notes ranks pari passu with all other Senior
Subordinated Indebtedness of the Company and is, to the extent and in the manner
provided in the Indenture, senior in right of payment to all Indebtedness of the
Company that is not Senior Indebtedness or Senior Subordinated Indebtedness of
the Company. Any Holder by accepting this Note agrees to and shall be bound by
such subordination provisions and authorizes the Trustee to give them effect. In
addition to all other rights of Senior Indebtedness described in the Indenture,
the Senior Indebtedness shall continue to be Senior Indebtedness and entitled to
the benefits of the subordination provisions irrespective of any amendment,
modification or waiver of any terms of any instrument relating to the Senior
Indebtedness or any extension or renewal of the Senior Indebtedness.

     11.  Denominations, Transfer, Exchange

     The Notes are in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of
$1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. A Holder may register the transfer of
or exchange Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a
Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer
documents and to pay any taxes or other governmental charges that may be imposed
in relation thereto by law or permitted by the Indenture.

     12.  Persons Deemed Owners

     The Holder of a Note may be treated as the owner of it for all purposes.

     13.  Unclaimed Money

     If money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for two
years, the Trustee or Paying Agent will pay the money back to the Company at its
written request, subject to applicable unclaimed property law. After that,
Holders entitled to money must look to the Company for payment as general
creditors unless an applicable abandoned property law designates another person.

                                       9

     14.  Amendment, Supplement and Waiver

     Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or
supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, and an existing default or Event
of Default and its consequence or compliance with any provision of the Indenture
or the Notes may be waived in a particular instance with the consent of the
Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then
outstanding. Without the consent of or notice to any Holder, the Company, the
Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Notes
to, among other things, provide for additional Guarantors, make changes in
connection with the registration of the Notes and the Guarantees under the
Securities Act and the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture
Act, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency or make any other change that
does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder.

     15.  Successor Entity

     When a successor corporation assumes all the obligations of its predecessor
under the Notes and the Indenture in accordance with the terms and conditions of
the Indenture, the predecessor corporation (except in certain circumstances
specified in the Indenture) be released from those obligations.

     16.  Defaults and Remedies

     Under the Indenture, an Event of Default includes: (i) default for 30 days
in payment of any interest or Additional Interest on any Notes; (ii) default in
payment of any principal (including, without limitation, any premium, if any) on
the Notes when due; (iii) failure by the Company or a Guarantor for 60 days
after notice to it to comply with any of its other agreements contained in the
Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees; (iv) the failure of the Company to
provide timely notice of a Change in Control; (v) default in the payment of
certain indebtedness of the Company, a Guarantor or other Subsidiary, if any,
and (vi) the denial or disaffirmation of the Company or any Guarantor that is a
Significant Subsidiary, or by any group of Guarantors that together constitute a
Significant Subsidiary, of any obligations under any Guarantee or if any
Guarantee of a Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary, or of any group of
Guarantors that together constitute a Significant Subsidiary, shall cease to be
in full force and effect and (vii) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or
reorganization of the Company or any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary,
or by any group of Guarantors that together constitute a Significant Subsidiary,
or other Subsidiary that is a Significant Subsidiary, or group of Subsidiaries
that together constitute a Significant Subsidiary. If an Event of Default (other
than as a result of certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization
of the Company) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least
25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may declare all
unpaid principal to the date of acceleration on the Notes then outstanding to be
due and payable immediately, all as and to the extent provided in the Indenture.
If an Event of Default occurs as a result of certain events of bankruptcy,
insolvency or reorganization of the Company, unpaid principal of the Notes then
outstanding shall become due and payable immediately without any declaration or
other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder, all as and to the extent
provided in the Indenture. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes
except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may require indemnity
satisfactory

                                       10

<PAGE>

to it before it enforces the Indenture or the Notes. Subject to certain
limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes
then outstanding may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power.
The Trustee may withhold from Holders notice of any continuing default (except a
default in payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding
notice is in their interests. The Company is required to file periodic reports
with the Trustee as to the absence of default.

     17.  Registration Rights

     The Holder of this Note is entitled to the benefits of a Registration
Rights Agreement.

     18.  Trustee Dealings with the Company

     The Bank of New York, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or
any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from and perform services
for the Company or an Affiliate of the Company, and may otherwise deal with the
Company or an Affiliate of the Company, as if it were not the Trustee.

     19.  No Recourse Against Others

     A director, officer, employee or shareholder, as such, of the Company or of
a Guarantor shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company or
of a Guarantor under the Notes, the Indenture or the Guarantees, nor for any
claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their
creation. The Holder of this Note by accepting this Note waives and releases all
such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the
issuance of this Note.

     20.  Authentication

     This Note shall not be valid until the Trustee or an authenticating agent
manually signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Note.

Proceeds") remain after the prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to Section 4.4(b),
the amount of such Excess Proceeds shall be used on the date of the required

the Revolving Credit Loans (with a corresponding reduction of the Revolving
Credit Commitment as set forth in Section 2.6(b) below) and Swingline Loans.

     (e)  Repayment Pursuant to Payment Refusals. In the event any Term Loan
Lender makes a Payment Refusal election pursuant to Section 4.4(b) and proceeds
remain (such remaining proceeds, the "Excess Refused Proceeds"), the amount of
such Excess Refused Proceeds shall be used on the date of the required
prepayment pursuant to Section 4.4(b) to prepay the outstanding principal amount
of the Revolving Credit Loans (without a corresponding reduction in the
Revolving Credit Commitment) and Swingline Loans; provided that if proceeds

                                       24

<PAGE>

("Additional Excess Refused Proceeds") remain after the prepayment of the
outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans and Swingline Loans,
the amount of such Additional Excess Refused Proceeds shall be applied in the
manner set forth in Section 4.4(b)(v).

     (f)  Limitation on Repayment of LIBOR Rate Loans. The Borrowers may not
repay any LIBOR Rate Loan on any day other than on the last day of the Interest
Period applicable thereto unless such repayment is accompanied by any amount
required to be paid pursuant to Section 5.9 hereof.

     (g)  Hedging Agreements. No repayment or prepayment pursuant to this
Section 2.4 shall affect any Borrower's obligations under any Hedging Agreement,
except as may be specifically provided for under any such Hedging Agreement.

     SECTION 2.5   Notes.

     (a)  Revolving Credit Notes. Except as otherwise provided in Section
14.10(a)-(e), each Lender's Revolving Credit Loans and the obligation of the
Borrowers to repay such Revolving Credit Loans shall be evidenced by a separate
Revolving Credit Note executed by the Borrowers payable to the order of such
Lender. Each Revolving Credit Note shall be dated as of the Closing Date and
shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof at the applicable
interest rate per annum specified in Section 5.1.

     (b)  Swingline Note. The Swingline Loans and the obligations of the
Borrowers to repay such Swingline Loans shall be evidenced by a Swingline Note
executed by the Borrowers payable to the order of the Swingline Lender. The

the unpaid principal amount thereof at the applicable interest rate per annum
specified in Section 5.1.

     SECTION 2.6   Permanent Reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitment.

     (a)  Voluntary Reduction. The Borrowers shall have the right at any time
and from time to time, upon at least five (5) Business Days prior written notice
to the Administrative Agent, to permanently reduce, without premium or penalty,
(i) the entire Revolving Credit Commitment at any time or (ii) portions of the
Revolving Credit Commitment, from time to time, in an aggregate principal amount
not less than $3,000,000 or any whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Revolving Credit Commitment cannot be reduced
to an amount less than the amount of the then outstanding Letters of Credit and
Swingline Loans.

     (b)  Mandatory Reductions. If at any time Excess Proceeds remain after the
prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to Section 4.4(b), the Revolving Credit
Commitment shall be permanently reduced on the date of the required prepayment
under Section 4.4(b) by an amount equal to the amount of such Excess Proceeds.

     (c)  Manner of Payment. Each permanent reduction permitted or required
pursuant to this Section 2.6 shall be accompanied by a payment of principal
sufficient to reduce the

                                       25

<PAGE>

aggregate outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, Swingline Loans and L/C
Obligations, as applicable, after such reduction to the Revolving Credit
Commitment as so reduced and if the Revolving Credit Commitment as so reduced is
less than the aggregate amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit, the
Borrowers shall be required to furnish cash collateral in accordance with
Section 12.2(b) in an amount equal to the aggregate then undrawn and unexpired
amount of such Letter of Credit. Any reduction of the Revolving Credit
Commitment to zero shall be accompanied by payment of all outstanding Revolving
Credit Loans and Swingline Loans (and furnishing of cash collateral in
accordance with Section 12.2(b) for all L/C Obligations) and termination of the
Revolving Credit Commitment and the Swingline Commitment and the Revolving
Credit Facility. Such cash collateral shall be applied in accordance with
Section 12.2(b). If the reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitment requires
the repayment of any LIBOR Rate Loan, such repayment shall be accompanied by any
amount required to be paid pursuant to Section 5.9 hereof.

     SECTION 2.7   Termination of Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving
Credit Facility shall terminate on the earliest of (a) June 25, 2008, (b) the
date of termination by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.6(a), and (c) the
date of termination by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders
pursuant to Section 12.2(a).

                           LETTER OF CREDIT FACILITIES

     SECTION 3.1   L/C Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof,
the Issuing Lenders, in reliance on the agreements of the other Lenders set
forth in Section 3.4, agree to issue standby letters of credit ("Letters of
Credit") for the account of the Borrowers on any Business Day from the Closing
Date through but not including the L/C Facility Termination Date in such form as
may be approved from time to time by the applicable Issuing Lender; provided,
that the Issuing Lenders shall have no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit
if, after giving effect to such issuance, (a) the L/C Obligations would exceed
the L/C Commitment or (b) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding
Revolving Credit Loans plus the aggregate principal amount of outstanding
Swingline Loans plus the aggregate amount of L/C Obligations would exceed the
Revolving Credit Commitment. Each Letter of Credit shall (i) be denominated in
Dollars in a minimum amount of $50,000, (ii) be a standby letter of credit
issued to support obligations of any Borrower, contingent or otherwise, incurred
in the ordinary course of business, (iii) expire on a date satisfactory to the
applicable Issuing Lender, which date shall be no later than the earlier of (A)
the date that is twelve (12) months after the date of issuance thereof (provided
that any Letter of Credit may be automatically renewable for additional twelve
(12) month periods so long as no such renewal shall cause such Letter of Credit
to terminate on a date that is later than the Revolving Credit Maturity Date)
and (B) the fifth (5/th/) Business Day prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity
Date and (iv) be subject to the Uniform Customs and/or ISP98 and, to the extent
not inconsistent therewith, the laws of the State of North Carolina. The
applicable Issuing Lender shall not at any time be obligated to issue any Letter
of Credit hereunder if such issuance would conflict with, or cause the
applicable Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant to exceed any limits imposed
by, any Applicable Law. References herein to

"issue" and derivations thereof with respect to Letters of Credit shall also
include extensions, amendments or modifications of any existing Letters of
Credit, unless the context otherwise requires.

     SECTION 3.2   Procedure for Issuance of Letters of Credit. The Borrowers
may from time to time request that the applicable Issuing Lender issue a Letter
of Credit by delivering to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing
Lender at the Administrative Agent's Office an Application therefor, completed
to the satisfaction of the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing
Lender, and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information
as the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender may request. Upon
receipt of any Application, the applicable Issuing Lender shall process such
Application and the certificates, documents and other papers and information
delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary
procedures and shall, subject to Section 3.1 and Article VI hereof, promptly
issue the Letter of Credit requested thereby (but in no event shall the
applicable Issuing Lender be required to issue any Letter of Credit earlier than
three (3) Business Days after its receipt of the Application therefor and all
such other certificates, documents and other papers and information relating
thereto) by issuing the original of such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary
thereof or as otherwise may be agreed by the applicable Issuing Lender and the
applicable Borrower. The applicable Issuing Lender shall furnish to the Company
and the Administrative Agent a copy of such Letter of Credit and the
Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the issuance and, upon request
by any Lender, furnish to such Lender a copy of such Letter of Credit and the
amount of each L/C Participant's participation therein, all promptly following
the issuance of such Letter of Credit.

     SECTION 3.3   Commissions and Other Charges.

     (a)  Letter of Credit Commission. The Borrowers shall pay to the
Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender and the
L/C Participants, a letter of credit commission with respect to each Letter of
Credit in an amount equal to the product of (i) the Applicable Margin with
respect to LIBOR Rate Loans (as set forth in Section 5.1 hereof) in effect on
the corresponding payment date (determined on a per annum basis) and (ii) the
average face amount of such Letter of Credit for the corresponding quarterly
period. Such commission shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last
Business Day of each calendar quarter (based on the then current Applicable
Margin) and on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. The Administrative Agent
shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, distribute to the applicable
Issuing Lender and the L/C Participants such commission in accordance with their
respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages.

     (b)  Issuance Fees. In addition to the foregoing commission, the Borrowers
shall pay the applicable Issuing Lender, for its account, an issuance fee with
respect to each Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of (i)
one-eighth percent (0.125%) per annum and (ii) the face amount of such Letter of
Credit as of the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit. Such fee shall be
payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter
and on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.

                                       27

<PAGE>

     (c)  Other Costs and Expenses. In addition to the foregoing fees and
commissions, the Borrowers shall pay or reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender
for such normal and customary costs and expenses as are incurred or charged by
the applicable Issuing Lender in issuing, effecting payment under, amending or
otherwise administering any Letter of Credit.

     SECTION 3.4   L/C Participations.

     (a)  The Issuing Lenders irrevocably agree to grant and hereby grant to
each L/C Participant, and, to induce the Issuing Lenders to issue Letters of
Credit hereunder, each L/C Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase
and hereby accepts and purchases from the applicable Issuing Lender for such L/C
Participant's own account and risk an undivided interest equal to such L/C
Participant's Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage in the applicable Issuing
Lender's obligations and rights under and in respect of each Letter of Credit
issued hereunder and the amount of each draft paid by the applicable Issuing
Lender thereunder. Each L/C Participant unconditionally and irrevocably agrees
with the applicable Issuing Lender (notwithstanding any Default, Event of
Default, non-satisfaction of conditions set forth in Article VI or any other
circumstances whatsoever) that, if a draft is paid under any Letter of Credit
for which the applicable Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the
Borrowers through a Revolving Credit Loan or otherwise in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement, such L/C Participant shall pay to the applicable
Issuing Lender upon demand at the applicable Issuing Lender's address for
notices specified herein an amount equal to such L/C Participant's Revolving
Credit Commitment Percentage of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof,
which is not so reimbursed.

     (b)  Upon becoming aware of any amount required to be paid by any L/C
Participant to the applicable Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(a) in
respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by the applicable
Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender shall
notify each L/C Participant of the amount and due date of such required payment
and such L/C Participant shall pay to the applicable Issuing Lender the amount
specified on the applicable due date. If any such amount is paid to the
applicable Issuing Lender after the date such payment is due, such L/C
Participant shall pay to the applicable Issuing Lender on demand, in addition to
such amount, the product of (i) such amount, times (ii) the daily average
Federal Funds Rate as determined by the Administrative Agent during the period
from and including the date such payment is due to the date on which such
payment is immediately available to the applicable Issuing Lender, times (iii) a
fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such
period and the denominator of which is 360. A certificate of the applicable
Issuing Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 3.4 shall be
conclusive in the absence of manifest error. With respect to payment to the
applicable Issuing Lender of the unreimbursed amounts described in this Section
3.4(b), if the L/C Participants receive notice that any such payment is due (A)
prior to 1:00 p.m. (Charlotte time) on any Business Day, such payment shall be
due that Business Day, and (B) after 1:00 p.m. (Charlotte time) on any Business
Day, such payment shall be due on the following Business Day.

     (c)  Whenever, at any time after the applicable Issuing Lender has made
payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any L/C Participant its
Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such payment in accordance with this
Section 3.4, the applicable

                                       28

<PAGE>

Issuing Lender receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether
directly from any Borrower or otherwise), or any payment of interest on account
thereof, the applicable Issuing Lender will distribute to such L/C Participant
its pro rata share thereof; provided, that in the event that any such payment
received by the applicable Issuing Lender shall be required to be returned by
the applicable Issuing Lender, such L/C Participant shall return to the
applicable Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by the
applicable Issuing Lender to it.

     SECTION 3.5   Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrowers. The Borrowers
agree to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender on each date on which the
applicable Issuing Lender notifies the Borrowers of the date and amount of a
draft paid under any Letter of Credit for the amount of (i) such draft so paid
and (ii) any taxes, fees, charges or other costs or expenses incurred by the
applicable Issuing Lender in connection with such payment. Each such payment
shall be made to the applicable Issuing Lender at its address for notices
specified herein in lawful money of the United States and in immediately
available funds. Interest shall be payable on any and all amounts remaining
unpaid by the Borrowers under this Article III from the date such amounts become
payable (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) until payment
in full at the rate which would be payable on any outstanding Base Rate Loans
which were then overdue. If the Borrowers fail to timely reimburse the
applicable Issuing Lender on the date the Borrowers receive the notice referred
to in this Section 3.5, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have timely given a
Notice of Revolving Credit/Swingline Borrowing hereunder to the Administrative
Agent requesting the Lenders to make a Revolving Credit Loan as a Base Rate Loan
on such date in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing and any taxes,
fees, charges or other costs or expenses incurred by the applicable Issuing
Lender in connection with such payment by the Issuing Lender and, regardless of
whether or not the conditions precedent specified in Article VI have been
satisfied, the Lenders shall make Revolving Credit Loans as Base Rate Loans in
such amount, the proceeds of which shall be applied to reimburse the applicable
Issuing Lender for the amount of the related drawing and costs and expenses.

     SECTION 3.6   Obligations Absolute. The obligations of the Borrowers under
this Article III (including, without limitation, the Reimbursement Obligation)
shall be joint and several, and absolute and unconditional under any and all
circumstances and irrespective of any set-off, counterclaim or defense to
payment which the Borrowers may have or have had against the applicable Issuing
Lender, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person. The Borrowers
also agree that the applicable Issuing Lender and the L/C Participants shall not
be responsible for, and the Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrowers under
Section 3.5 shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or
genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such
documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any
dispute between or among any Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of
Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or
any claims whatsoever of any Borrower against any beneficiary of such Letter of
Credit or any such transferee. The applicable Issuing Lender shall not be liable
for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or
delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any
Letter of Credit except for errors or omissions caused by the applicable Issuing
Lender's gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Borrowers agree that any
action taken or omitted by the applicable Issuing Lender under or in connection
with any Letter of Credit or the related drafts or documents, if done in the
absence of gross negligence or willful

                                       29

<PAGE>

misconduct, shall be binding on the Borrowers and shall not result in any
liability of the applicable Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant to the
Borrowers. The responsibility of the applicable Issuing Lender to the Borrowers
in connection with any draft presented for payment under any Letter of Credit
shall, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such
Letter of Credit be limited to determining that the documents (including each
draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment
are in conformity with such Letter of Credit.

     SECTION 3.7   Effect of Application. To the extent that any provision of
any Application related to any Letter of Credit is inconsistent with the
provisions of this Article III, the provisions of this Article III shall apply.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                               TERM LOAN FACILITY
                               ------------------

     SECTION 4.1   Initial Term Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions of
this Agreement, each Lender severally agrees to make an Initial Term Loan to the
Borrowers on a joint and several basis on the Closing Date. The Initial Term
Loan shall be funded by each Lender in a principal amount equal to such Lender's
Term Loan Percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the Initial Term Loans
made on the Closing Date, which aggregate principal amount shall equal the total
Term Loan Commitment as of the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
the total Term Loan Commitment (other than with respect to Additional Term
Loans) as of the Closing Date is not drawn on the Closing Date, the undrawn
amount shall automatically be cancelled.

     SECTION 4.2   Procedure for Advance of Initial Term Loans.

     (a)  The Company, on behalf of the Borrowers, shall give the Administrative
Agent irrevocable prior written notice substantially in the form attached hereto
as Exhibit B-2 (a "Notice of Term Loan Borrowing") with respect to the Initial
Term Loans prior to 11:00 a.m. (Charlotte time) on the Closing Date requesting
that the Lenders make the Initial Term Loans as a Base Rate Loan on such date
(provided that the Borrowers may request, no later than three (3) Business Days
prior to the Closing Date, that the Lenders make the Initial Term Loans as LIBOR
Rate Loans if the Borrowers have delivered to the Administrative Agent a letter
in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent indemnifying the
Lenders in the manner set forth in Section 5.9 of this Agreement).

     (b)  Upon receipt of such Notice of Term Loan Borrowing from the Company,
on behalf of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each
Lender thereof. Not later than 2:00 p.m. (Charlotte time) on the applicable
borrowing date, each Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent for
the account of the Borrowers, at the office of the Administrative Agent in
immediately available funds, the amount of such Initial Term Loan to be made by
such Lender on such borrowing date. The Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorize
the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of the Initial Term Loans in
immediately available funds by wire

                                       30

transfer to such Person or Persons as may be designated by the Company, on
behalf of the Borrowers.

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, upon and during the

reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loans on a pro rata basis
between the Initial Term Loans and the Additional Term Loans to reduce in
inverse order of maturity the remaining amortization payments of the Initial
Term Loans and the Additional Term Loans pursuant to Section 4.3 and second, to
the extent of any excess, to repay the outstanding principal balance of the
Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 2.4(d) and to reduce permanently the

in accordance with this Section 4.4(b)(v) and the prepayment of the Revolving
Credit Loans in accordance with Section 2.4(e), the amount of such Additional
Excess Refused Proceeds shall be reapplied to the pro rata share of any Term
Loan Lenders that have made a Payment Refusal election (which repayment such
Term Loan Lenders may not refuse) and to reduce in inverse order of maturity the

such Term Loan Lender that makes a Payment Refusal shall, no later than 11:00

required under Section 5.9.

          (vi)  No Reborrowing. Amounts prepaid pursuant to this Section 4.4 may
not be reborrowed and will constitute a permanent reduction of the Term Loan
Commitment. Each prepayment shall be accompanied by any amount required to be
paid pursuant to Section 5.9 hereof.

     SECTION 4.5   Term Notes. Except as otherwise provided in Section
14.10(a)-(e), each Lender's Term Loan and the obligation of the Borrowers to
repay such Term Loan shall be evidenced by a separate Term Note executed by the
Borrowers payable to the order of such Lender. Each Term Note shall bear
interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof at the applicable interest rate
per annum specified in Section 5.1.

provide any portion of such Additional Term Loans. If the amount of the
Additional Term Loans requested by the Borrowers shall exceed the commitments
which the existing Lenders are willing to provide with respect to such
Additional Term Loans, then the Borrowers may invite other banks, financial
institutions and investment funds which meet the requirements of an Eligible
Assignee to join this Agreement as Lenders for the portion of such Additional
Term Loans not committed to by existing Lenders (each such other bank, financial
institution or investment fund, a "New Lender" and collectively with the
existing Lenders providing increased Term Loan Commitments, the "Increase
Lenders"). The Administrative Agent is authorized to enter into, on behalf of
the Lenders, any amendment to this Agreement or any other Loan Document as may
be necessary to incorporate the terms of any Additional Term Loan herein or
therein; provided that such amendment shall not modify this Agreement or any
other Loan Document in any manner materially adverse to any Lender and shall
otherwise be in accordance with Section 14.11 hereof.

     (c)  The following terms and conditions shall apply to each Additional Term
Loan: (i) the Additional Term Loans made under this Section 4.6 shall constitute
Obligations of the Borrowers and shall be secured with the other Loans on a pari

<PAGE>

making Additional Term Loans shall be entitled to the same voting rights as the

shall receive proceeds of prepayments on the same basis as the Initial Term
Loans (except to the extent otherwise specified in Section 4.3 and Section
4.4(b)(v)); (iii) the Borrowers shall execute such new or replacement Term Loan
Notes as are necessary to reflect the Additional Term Loans under this Section
4.6; (iv) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have received from the

satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, demonstrating that, after giving
effect to any such Additional Term Loan, the Borrowers will be in pro forma
compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Article X; (v) no Default
or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing hereunder as of the
Additional Term Loan Effective Date or after giving effect to the making of any
such Additional Term Loans; (vi) the representations and warranties made by the
Borrowers and contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be
true and correct on and as of the Additional Term Loan Effective Date with the
same effect as if made on and as of such date (other than those representations
and warranties that by their terms speak as of a particular date, which
representations and warranties shall be true and correct as of such particular
date); (vii) the amount of such increase in the Term Loan Commitment and any
Additional Term Loans obtained thereunder shall not (A) be less than a minimum
principal amount of $10,000,000, or any whole multiple of $5,000,000 in excess
thereof and (B) shall not cause the Term Loan Commitment to exceed $190,000,000
in the aggregate; (viii) the Borrowers and each Increase Lender shall execute
and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the
Register, a written agreement acknowledged by the Administrative Agent and each
Borrower, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent (the "Additional Term Loan Agreement"), and (ix) the Administrative Agent
shall have received any documents or information, including any joinder
agreements, in connection with such increase in the Term Loan Commitment as it
may request in its reasonable discretion.

     (d)  Upon the execution, delivery, acceptance and recording of the
Additional Term Loan Agreement, from and after the applicable Additional Term
Loan Effective Date, each Increase Lender shall have a Term Loan Commitment as
set forth in the Register and all the rights and obligations of a Lender with
such a Term Loan Commitment hereunder. The Increase Lenders shall make the
Additional Term Loans to the Borrower on the Additional Term Loan Effective Date
in an amount equal to each such Increase Lender's commitment as agreed upon
pursuant to subsection (b) above.

     (e)  The Administrative Agent shall maintain a copy of each Additional Term
Loan Agreement delivered to it in accordance with Section 14.10(d).

     (f)  Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of notice, the Borrowers
shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, in exchange for any
surrendered Term Loan Note or Term Loan Notes of any Increase Lender, a new Term
Loan Note or Term Loan Notes, to the order of the applicable Increase Lender in
an amount equal to the Term Loan Commitment of such Increase Lender as set forth
in the Register. Such Term Loan Note or Term Loan Notes shall be in an aggregate
principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Term Loan
Commitments, shall be dated as of the applicable Additional Term Loan Effective
Date and

                                       35

<PAGE>

shall otherwise be in substantially the form of the existing Term Loan Notes.
Each surrendered Term Loan Note and/or Term Loan Notes shall be canceled and
returned to the Company.

     (g)  The Applicable Margin for the Additional Term Loans shall be
determined on the applicable Additional Term Loan Effective Date. If the
Applicable Margin for such Additional Term Loans at such time exceeds the
Applicable Margin for the Initial Term Loans as set forth in Section 5.1(c),
then the Applicable Margin for all Term Loans shall be increased to be equal to
the Applicable Margin for such Additional Term Loans as determined on the
applicable Additional Term Loan Effective Date. In addition, an amortization
schedule shall be prepared by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the
terms of Section 4.3(b) to provide for the repayment of the applicable
Additional Term Loans.

Loan would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day but is a day of
the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such
Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day;

          (iii) any Interest Period with respect to a LIBOR Rate Loan that

month at the end of such Interest Period;

          (iv)  no Interest Period shall extend beyond the Revolving Credit

Administrative Agent of evidence of pro forma covenant compliance with each
covenant contained in Article X (as delivered pursuant to Section 11.4(e)

shall be payable in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter
commencing September 30, 2003; and interest on each LIBOR Rate Loan shall be

Interest Period extends over three (3) months, at the end of each three (3)
month interval during such Interest Period; provided that interest on each
Swingline Loan made while the SweepPlus Program is effective shall be payable in

360-day year and assessed for the actual number of days elapsed; provided, that
interest on Base Rate Loans shall be computed on the basis of a 365/66-day year

charged or collected pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or pursuant to any
of the Notes exceed the highest rate permissible under any Applicable Law which
a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem
applicable hereto. In the event that such a court determines that the Lenders
have charged or received interest hereunder in excess of the highest applicable
rate, the rate in effect hereunder shall automatically be reduced to the maximum
rate permitted by Applicable Law and the Lenders shall at the Administrative
Agent's option (i) promptly refund to the Borrowers any interest received by the
Lenders in excess of the maximum lawful rate or (ii) shall apply such excess to
the principal balance of the Obligations on a pro rata basis. It is the intent
hereof that the Borrowers not pay or contract to pay, and that neither the
Administrative Agent nor any Lender receive or contract to receive, directly or
indirectly in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may be
paid by the Borrowers under Applicable Law.

     SECTION 5.2   Notice and Manner of Conversion or Continuation of Loans.
Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is then

than Swingline Loans) in a principal amount equal to $3,000,000 or any whole
multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof into one or more LIBOR Rate Loans and (b)
upon the expiration of any Interest Period, (i) convert all or any part of its
outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans in a principal amount equal to $500,000 or a whole
multiple of $50,000 in excess thereof into Base Rate Loans or (ii) continue such
LIBOR Rate Loans as LIBOR Rate Loans. Whenever the Borrowers desire to convert
or continue Loans as provided above, the Company, on behalf of the Borrowers,
shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable prior written notice in the form
attached as Exhibit E (a "Notice of Conversion/Continuation") not later than
11:00 a.m. (Charlotte time) three (3) Business Days before the day on which a

Loan to be converted or continued, the last day of the Interest Period therefor,
(B) the effective date of such conversion or continuation (which shall be a
Business Day), (C) the principal amount of such Loans to be converted or
continued, and (D) the Interest Period to be applicable to such converted or
continued LIBOR Rate Loan. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the
Lenders of such Notice of Conversion/Continuation.

Lender. Any amount payable to any Lender under Sections 5.8, 5.9, 5.10, 5.11 or
14.2 shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable
Lender. Subject to Section 5.1(b)(ii), if any payment under this Agreement or
any Note shall be specified to be made upon a day which is not a Business Day,
it shall be made on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day and such
extension of time shall in such case be included in computing any interest if
payable along with such payment.

     SECTION 5.5   Crediting of Payments and Proceeds. In the event that the
Borrowers shall fail to pay any of the Obligations when due and the Obligations
have been accelerated pursuant to Section 12.2, all payments received by the
Lenders upon the Notes and the other Obligations and all net proceeds from the
enforcement of the Obligations shall be applied first to all expenses then due
and payable by the Borrowers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then
to all indemnity obligations then due and payable by the Borrowers hereunder and
under the Loan Documents, then to all of the Administrative Agent's, the Issuing
Lenders' fees then due and payable, then to all commitment and other fees and
commissions then due and payable, then to accrued and unpaid interest on the
Notes, the Reimbursement Obligation and Hedging Obligations (including any
termination payments and any accrued and unpaid interest thereon) (pro rata in
accordance with all such amounts due), then to the principal amount of the Notes
and the Reimbursement Obligation (pro rata in accordance with all such amounts
due), then to the cash collateral account described in Section 12.2(b) hereof to
the extent of any L/C Obligations then outstanding, and then to the ratable
payment of any other outstanding Obligations, in that order.

     SECTION 5.6   Adjustments. If any Lender (a "Benefited Lender") shall at
any time receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it, or
interest thereon, or if any Lender shall at any time receive any collateral in
respect to the Obligations owing to it

                                       41

<PAGE>

(whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off or otherwise), in a greater
proportion than the pro rata distribution to the extent required by Section 5.4,
such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders such
portion of each such other Lender's Extensions of Credit or other Obligations,
or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or
the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to
share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with
each of the Lenders; provided, that if all or any portion of such excess payment
or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase
shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned to the extent
of such recovery, but without interest. The Borrowers agree that each Lender so
purchasing a portion of another Lender's Extensions of Credit or other
Obligations may exercise all rights of payment (including, without limitation,
rights of set-off) with respect to such portion as fully as if such Lender were
the direct holder of such portion.

     SECTION 5.7   Nature of Obligations of Lenders Regarding Extensions of
Credit; Assumption by the Administrative Agent. The obligations of the Lenders
under this Agreement to make the Loans and issue or participate in Letters of
Credit are several and are not joint or joint and several. Unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to a
proposed borrowing date that such Lender will not make available to the
Administrative Agent such Lender's ratable portion of the amount to be borrowed
on such date (which notice shall not release such Lender of its obligations
hereunder), the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such
portion available to the Administrative Agent on the proposed borrowing date in
accordance with Sections 2.3(b) and 4.2 and the Administrative Agent may, in
reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers on such date a
corresponding amount. If such amount is made available to the Administrative
Agent on a date after such borrowing date, such Lender shall pay to the
Administrative Agent on demand an amount, until paid, equal to the product of
(a) the amount not made available by such Lender in accordance with the terms
hereof, times (b) the daily average Federal Funds Rate during such period as
determined by the Administrative Agent, times (c) a fraction the numerator of
which is the number of days that elapse from and including such borrowing date
to the date on which such amount not made available by such Lender in accordance
with the terms hereof shall have become immediately available to the
Administrative Agent and the denominator of which is 360. A certificate of the
Administrative Agent with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 5.7
shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If such Lender's ratable portion of
such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender
within three (3) Business Days after such borrowing date, the Administrative
Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount made available by the
Administrative Agent with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to
Base Rate Loans hereunder, on demand, from the Borrowers. The failure of any
Lender to make its ratable portion of any Loan available shall not relieve it or
any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its ratable
portion of such Loan available on such borrowing date, but no Lender shall be
responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make its ratable portion of
such Loan available on the borrowing date. Notwithstanding anything set forth
herein to the contrary, any Lender that fails to make available its ratable
portion of any Loan shall not (a) have any voting or consent rights under or
with respect to any Loan Documents or (b) constitute a "Lender" (or be included
in the calculation of Required Lenders hereunder) for any voting or consent
rights under or with respect to any Loan Document.

                                       42

     SECTION 5.8   Changed Circumstances.

     (a)  Circumstances Affecting LIBOR Rate Availability. If with respect to
any Interest Period the Administrative Agent or any Lender (after consultation
with Administrative Agent) shall determine that, by reason of circumstances
affecting the foreign exchange and interbank markets generally, deposits in
eurodollars, in the applicable amounts are not being quoted via Dow Jones Market
Screen Page 3750 or offered to the Administrative Agent or such Lender for such
Interest Period, then the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice
thereof to the Borrowers. Thereafter, until the Administrative Agent notifies
the Borrowers that such circumstances no longer exist, the obligation of the
Lenders to make LIBOR Rate Loans and the right of the Borrowers to convert any
Loan to or continue any Loan as a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be suspended, and the
Borrowers shall repay in full (or cause to be repaid in full) the then
outstanding principal amount of each such LIBOR Rate Loan together with accrued
interest thereon, on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable
to such LIBOR Rate Loan or convert the then outstanding principal amount of each
such LIBOR Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan as of the last day of such Interest
Period.

     (b)  Laws Affecting LIBOR Rate Availability. If, after the date hereof,
the introduction of, or any change in, any Applicable Law or any change in the
interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central
bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration
thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or any of its Lending Offices) with any
request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such
Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, shall make it
unlawful or impossible for any of the Lenders (or any of their respective
Lending Offices) to honor its obligations hereunder to make or maintain any
LIBOR Rate Loan, such Lender shall promptly give notice thereof to the
Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice to
the Borrowers and the other Lenders. Thereafter, until the Administrative Agent
notifies the Borrowers that such circumstances no longer exist, (i) the
obligations of the Lenders to make LIBOR Rate Loans and the right of the
Borrowers to convert any Loan or continue any Loan as a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be
suspended and thereafter the Borrowers may select only Base Rate Loans
hereunder, and (ii) if any of the Lenders may not lawfully continue to maintain
a LIBOR Rate Loan to the end of the then current Interest Period applicable
thereto as a LIBOR Rate Loan, the applicable LIBOR Rate Loan shall immediately
be converted to a Base Rate Loan for the remainder of such Interest Period.

     (c)  Increased Costs. If, after the date hereof, the introduction of, or
any change in, any Applicable Law, or in the interpretation or administration
thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged
with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any of the
Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices) with any request or
directive (whether or not having the force of law) of such Governmental
Authority, central bank or comparable agency:

          (i)   shall subject any of the Lenders (or any of their respective
Lending Offices) to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to any Note,
Letter of Credit or Application or shall change the basis of taxation of
payments to any of the Lenders (or any of their respective

                                       43

<PAGE>

Lending Offices) of the principal of or interest on any Note, Letter of Credit
or Application or any other amounts due under this Agreement in respect thereof
(except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of any of the
Lenders or any of their respective Lending Offices imposed by the jurisdiction
in which such Lender is organized or is or should be qualified to do business or
such Lending Office is located); or

          (ii)  shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including,
without limitation, any imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System), special deposit, insurance or capital or similar requirement against
assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by any of the
Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices) or shall impose on any of
the Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices) or the foreign exchange
and interbank markets any other condition affecting any Note;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the costs to any of the
Lenders of maintaining any LIBOR Rate Loan or issuing or participating in
Letters of Credit or to reduce the yield or amount of any sum received or
receivable by any of the Lenders under this Agreement or under the Notes in
respect of a LIBOR Rate Loan or Letter of Credit or Application, then such
Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative
Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers of such fact and demand compensation
therefor and, within fifteen (15) days after such notice by the Administrative
Agent, the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts
as will compensate such Lender or Lenders for such increased cost or reduction.
The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers of any event of
which it has knowledge which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant
to this Section 5.8(c); provided, that the Administrative Agent shall incur no
liability whatsoever to the Lenders or the Borrowers in the event it fails to do
so. The amount of such compensation shall be determined, in the applicable
Lender's sole discretion, based upon the assumption that such Lender funded its
ratable portion of the LIBOR Rate Loans in the London interbank or domestic
certificate of deposit market, as applicable, and using any reasonable
attribution or averaging methods which such Lender deems appropriate and
practical. A certificate of such Lender setting forth the basis for determining
such amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender shall be forwarded to
the Borrowers through the Administrative Agent and shall be conclusively
presumed to be correct save for manifest error.

     SECTION 5.9   Indemnity. The Borrowers hereby indemnify each of the
Lenders against any loss or expense which may arise or be attributable to each
Lender's obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits or other funds acquired to
effect, fund or maintain any Loan (a) as a consequence of any failure by the
Borrowers to make any payment when due of any amount due hereunder in connection
with a LIBOR Rate Loan, (b) due to any failure of the Borrowers to borrow,
continue or convert on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Revolving
Credit/Swingline Borrowing, Notice of Term Loan Borrowing or Notice of
Conversion/ Continuation or (c) due to any payment, prepayment or conversion of
any LIBOR Rate Loan on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period
therefor. The amount of such loss or expense shall be determined, in the
applicable Lender's sole discretion, based upon the assumption that such Lender
funded its ratable portion of the LIBOR Rate Loans in the London interbank or
domestic certificate of deposit market, as applicable, and using any reasonable
attribution or averaging methods which such Lender deems appropriate and
practical. A certificate of such

                                       44

<PAGE>

Lender setting forth the basis for determining such amount or amounts necessary
to compensate such Lender shall be forwarded to the Borrowers through the
Administrative Agent and shall be conclusively presumed to be correct save for
manifest error.

     SECTION 5.10  Capital Requirements. If either (a) the introduction of,
or any change in, or in the interpretation of, any Applicable Law or (b)
compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or comparable
agency or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law),
has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of,
or has affected or would affect the amount of capital required to be maintained
by, any Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of,
or with reference to the Commitments and other commitments of this type, below
the rate which the Lender or such other corporation could have achieved but for
such introduction, change or compliance, then within five (5) Business Days
after written demand by any such Lender, the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender
from time to time as specified by such Lender additional amounts sufficient to
compensate such Lender or other corporation for such reduction. A certificate as
to such amounts submitted to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent by such
Lender, shall, in the absence of manifest error, be presumed to be correct and
binding for all purposes.

     SECTION 5.11  Taxes.

     (a)  Payments Free and Clear. Except as otherwise provided in Section
5.11(e), any and all payments by the Borrowers hereunder or under the Notes or
the Letters of Credit shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for
any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or
withholding, and all liabilities with respect thereto excluding, (i) in the case
of each Lender and the Administrative Agent, income and franchise taxes imposed
by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender or the Administrative
Agent (as the case may be) is organized or is or should be qualified to do
business or any political subdivision thereof and (ii) in the case of each
Lender, income and franchise taxes imposed by the jurisdiction of such Lender's
Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded
taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being
hereinafter referred to as "Taxes"). If the Borrowers shall be required by law
to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder
or under any Note or in respect of any Letter of Credit to any Lender or the
Administrative Agent, (A) except as otherwise provided in Section 5.11(e), the
sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all
required deductions or withholdings (including deductions or withholdings
applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 5.11) such Lender or
the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the
amount such party would have received had no such deductions or withholdings
been made, (B) the Borrowers shall make such deductions or withholdings, (C) the
Borrowers shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority or
other authority in accordance with Applicable Law, and (D) the Borrowers shall
deliver to the Administrative Agent and such Lender evidence of such payment to
the relevant taxing authority or other Governmental Authority in the manner
provided in Section 5.11(d).

                                       45

     (b)  Stamp and Other Taxes. In addition, the Borrowers shall pay any
present or future stamp, registration, recordation or documentary taxes or any
other similar fees or charges or excise or property taxes, levies of the United
States or any state or political subdivision thereof or any applicable foreign
jurisdiction which arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution,
delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement, the
Loans, the Letters of Credit or the other Loan Documents, or the perfection of
any rights or security interest in respect thereof (hereinafter referred to as
"Other Taxes").

     (c)  Indemnity. Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.11(e), the
Borrowers shall indemnify each Lender and the Administrative Agent for the full
amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes and
Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section
5.11) paid by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and
any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or
with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or
legally asserted. Such indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days
from the date such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) makes
written demand therefor.

     (d)  Evidence of Payment. Within thirty (30) days after the date of any
payment of Taxes or Other Taxes, the Borrowers shall furnish to the
Administrative Agent and the applicable Lender, at its address referred to in
Section 14.1, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment
thereof or other evidence of payment satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

     (e) Delivery of Tax Forms. To the extent required by Applicable Law to
reduce or eliminate withholding or payment of taxes, each Lender and the
Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrowers, with a copy to the
Administrative Agent, on the Closing Date or concurrently with the delivery of
the relevant Assignment and Acceptance, as applicable, (i) two United States
Internal Revenue Service Forms W-9, Forms W-8ECI or Forms W-8BEN, as applicable
(or successor forms) properly completed and certifying in each case that such
Lender is entitled to a complete exemption from withholding or deduction for or
on account of any United States federal income taxes, and (ii) an Internal
Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI or successor applicable form, as the case
may be, to establish an exemption from United States backup withholding taxes.
Each such Lender further agrees to deliver to the Borrowers, with a copy to the
Administrative Agent, as applicable, two Form W-9, Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, or
successor applicable forms or manner of certification, as the case may be, on or
before the date that any such form expires or becomes obsolete or after the
occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form previously
delivered by it to the Borrowers, certifying in the case of a Form W-9, Form
W-8BEN or W-8ECI (or successor forms) that such Lender is entitled to receive
payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United
States federal income taxes (unless in any such case an event (including,
without limitation, any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior
to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders
such forms inapplicable or the exemption to which such forms relate unavailable
and such Lender notifies the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent that it is
not entitled to receive payments without deduction or withholding of United
States federal income taxes) and, in the case of a Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI,
establishing an exemption from United States backup withholding tax.

<PAGE>

anything in any Loan Document to the contrary, the Borrowers shall not be
required to pay additional amounts to any Lender or the Administrative Agent
under Section 5.11, (i) if such Lender or the Administrative Agent fails to
comply with the requirements of this Section 5.11(e), other than to the extent
that such failure is due to a change in law occurring after the date on which
such Lender or the Administrative Agent became a party to this Agreement or (ii)
that are the result of such Lender's or the Administrative Agent's gross
negligence or willful misconduct, as applicable.

     (f)  Survival. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of

contained in this Section 5.11 shall survive the payment in full of the
Obligations and the termination of the Commitments.

                                   ARTICLE VII

                 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE BORROWERS

     SECTION 7.1   Representations and Warranties. To induce the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to induce
the Lenders to make the Loans or issue or participate in the Letters of Credit,
each Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders both before and after giving effect to the transactions contemplated

     (a)  Organization; Power; Qualification. Each Borrower and each Subsidiary
thereof is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws
of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation, has the power and
authority to own its properties and to carry on its business as now being and
hereafter proposed to be conducted and is duly qualified and authorized to do
business in each jurisdiction in which the character of its properties or the
nature of its business requires such qualification and authorization, except
where the failure to be so qualified and authorized would not be reasonably
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The jurisdictions in which each
Borrower and each Subsidiary thereof is organized and qualified to do business
as of the Closing Date are described on Schedule 7.1(a).

     (b)  Ownership. Each Subsidiary of each Borrower as of the Closing Date is
listed on Schedule 7.1(b). As of the Closing Date, the capitalization of each
Borrower and each Subsidiary thereof consists of the number of shares or other
ownership interests, authorized, issued and outstanding, of such classes and
series, with or without par value, described on Schedule 7.1(b). All outstanding
shares or other ownership interests have been duly authorized and validly issued
and are fully paid and nonassessable with no personal liability attaching to the
ownership thereof, and not subject to any preemptive or similar rights. The
shareholders or other owners of each Subsidiary of each Borrower and the number
of shares or other ownership interests owned by each as of the Closing Date are
described on Schedule 7.1(b). As of the Closing Date, there are no outstanding
stock purchase warrants, subscriptions, options, securities, instruments or
other rights of any type or nature whatsoever, which are convertible into,

stock or other

                                       53

<PAGE>

ownership interests of any Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof, except as
described on Schedule 7.1(b).

     (c)  Authorization of Agreement, Loan Documents and Borrowing. Each
Borrower and each Subsidiary thereof has the right, power and authority and has
taken all necessary corporate and other action to authorize the execution,
delivery and performance of this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents
to which it is a party in accordance with their respective terms. This Agreement
and each of the other Loan Documents have been duly executed and delivered by
the duly authorized officers of each Borrower and each Subsidiary thereof party
thereto, and each such document constitutes the legal, valid and binding
obligation of each Borrower and each Subsidiary thereof party thereto,
enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be
limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar state
or federal debtor relief laws from time to time in effect which affect the
enforcement of creditors' rights in general and the availability of equitable
remedies.

     (d)  Compliance of Agreement, Loan Documents and Borrowing with Laws, Etc.
The execution, delivery and performance by each Borrower and each Subsidiary
thereof of the Loan Documents to which each such Person is a party, in
accordance with their respective terms, the Extensions of Credit hereunder and
the transactions contemplated hereby do not and will not, by the passage of
time, the giving of notice or otherwise, (i) require any material Governmental
Approval or violate any material Applicable Law relating to any Borrower or any
Subsidiary thereof, (ii) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute a
default under the articles of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational
documents of any Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof or any material indenture,
agreement or other instrument to which such Person is a party or by which any of
its properties may be bound or any Governmental Approval relating to such
Person, or (iii) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien
upon or with respect to any property now owned or hereafter acquired by such
Person other than Liens arising under the Loan Documents.

     (e)  Compliance with Law; Governmental Approvals. Each Borrower and each
Subsidiary thereof (i) has all material Governmental Approvals required by any
Applicable Law for it to conduct its business, each of which is in full force
and effect, is final and not subject to review on appeal and is not the subject
of any pending or, to the best of its knowledge, threatened attack by direct or
collateral proceeding, and (ii) is in compliance with each Governmental Approval
applicable to it and in compliance with all other Applicable Laws relating to it
or any of its respective properties, except where the failure to be in
compliance with any such Governmental Approval or Applicable Law would not be
reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

     (f)  Tax Returns and Payments. Each Borrower and each Subsidiary thereof
has duly filed or caused to be filed all federal tax returns, all state tax
returns and all other material tax returns (including material local tax
returns) required by Applicable Law to be filed, and has paid, or made adequate
provision for the payment of, all federal taxes, all state taxes and all other
material taxes (including material local taxes), assessments and governmental
charges or levies upon it and its property, income, profits and assets which are
due and payable. Such returns accurately reflect in all material respects all
liability for taxes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the periods covered
thereby. There is no ongoing audit or examination or, to the knowledge of the
Borrower, other investigation by any Governmental Authority of the tax liability
of the Borrower and its

                                       54

<PAGE>

Subsidiaries, except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. Except as set forth on Schedule 7.1(u), no Governmental
Authority has asserted any Lien or other claim against any Borrower or any
Subsidiary thereof with respect to unpaid taxes which has not been discharged or
resolved, except unpaid taxes which are being contested in good faith by
appropriate proceedings diligently conducted and for which adequate reserves
have been provided in accordance with GAAP. The charges, accruals and reserves
on the books of each Borrower and each Subsidiary thereof in respect of federal,
state, local and other taxes for all Fiscal Years and portions thereof since the
organization of each such Borrower and each such Subsidiary thereof are in the
judgment of each such Borrower adequate, and each such Borrower does not
anticipate any additional material taxes or material assessments for any of such
years. The Borrowers do not intend to treat the Loans and/or Letters of Credit
as being a "reportable transaction" (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation
Section 1.6011-4). In the event that any Borrower determines to take any action
inconsistent with such intention, it will promptly notify the Administrative
Agent thereof. If any Borrower so notifies the Administrative Agent, the
Borrowers acknowledge that one or more of the Lenders may treat its Loans and/or
Letters of Credit as part of a transaction that is subject to Treasury
Regulation Section 1.6011-4 or Section 301.6112-1, and the Administrative Agent
and such Lender or Lenders, as applicable, may file such forms or maintain such
lists and other records as they may determine is required by such Treasury
Regulations.

     (g)  Intellectual Property Matters. Each Borrower and each Subsidiary
thereof owns or possesses rights to use all franchises, licenses, copyrights,
copyright applications, patents, patent rights or licenses, patent applications,
trademarks, trademark rights, service marks, service mark rights, trade names,
trade name rights, copyrights and rights with respect to the foregoing which are
material and required to conduct its business, except for those, the failure of
which to own or possess, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. No event has occurred which permits, or after notice or lapse of
time or both would permit, the revocation or termination of any such rights,
and, to each Borrower's knowledge, no Borrower nor any Subsidiary thereof is
liable to any Person for infringement under Applicable Law with respect to any
such rights as a result of its business operations, in each case which could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

     (h)  Environmental Matters.

          (i)   The properties of each Borrower and each Subsidiary
thereof do not contain, and to their knowledge have not previously contained,
any Hazardous Materials in amounts or concentrations which (A) constitute or
constituted a violation of applicable Environmental Laws or (B) could give rise
to liability under applicable Environmental Laws;

          (ii)  Such properties and all operations conducted in
connection therewith are in compliance, and have been in compliance, in each
case in all material respects, with all applicable Environmental Laws, and there
is no contamination at, under or about such properties or such operations which
could interfere with the continued operation of such properties or impair the
fair saleable value thereof;

                                       55

<PAGE>

          (iii) No Borrower nor any Subsidiary thereof has received any
notice of violation, alleged violation, non-compliance, liability or potential
liability regarding environmental matters or compliance with Environmental Laws
with regard to any of their properties or the operations conducted in connection
therewith, nor does any Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof have knowledge or
reason to believe that any such notice will be received or is being threatened;

          (iv)  Hazardous Materials have not been transported or disposed
of to or from the properties of any Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof in
violation of, or in a manner or to a location which could give rise to liability
under, Environmental Laws, nor have any Hazardous Materials been generated,
treated, stored or disposed of at, on or under any of such properties in
violation of, or in a manner that could give rise to liability under, any
applicable Environmental Laws;

          (v)   No judicial proceedings or governmental or administrative
action is pending, or, to the knowledge of any Borrower, threatened, under any
Environmental Law to which any Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof is or will be
named as a party with respect to such properties or operations conducted in
connection therewith, nor are there any consent decrees or other decrees,
consent orders, administrative orders or other orders, or other administrative
or judicial requirements outstanding under any Environmental Law with respect to
such properties or such operations; and

          (vi)  There has been no release, or to the best of the
knowledge of any Borrower, the threat of release, of Hazardous Materials at or
from such properties, in violation of or in amounts or in a manner that could
give rise to liability under Environmental Laws.

     (i)  ERISA.

          (i)   As of the Closing Date, no Borrower nor any ERISA
Affiliate maintains or contributes to, or has any obligation under, any Employee
Benefit Plans other than those identified on Schedule 7.1(i);

in all material respects with all applicable provisions of ERISA and the
regulations and published interpretations thereunder with respect to all
Employee Benefit Plans except for any required amendments for which the remedial

Each Employee Benefit Plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a)
of the Code has been determined by the Internal Revenue Service to be so
qualified, and each trust related to such plan has been determined to be exempt
under Section 501(a) of the Code. No liability has been incurred by any Borrower
or any ERISA Affiliate which remains unsatisfied for any taxes or penalties with
respect to any Employee Benefit Plan or any Multiemployer Plan;

          (iii) No Pension Plan has been terminated, nor has any
accumulated funding deficiency (as defined in Section 412 of the Code) been

<PAGE>

granted under Section 412 of the Code), nor has any funding waiver from the
Internal Revenue Service been received or requested with respect to any Pension
Plan, nor has any Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate failed to make any
contributions or to pay any amounts due and owing as required by Section 412 of
the Code, Section 302 of ERISA or the terms of any Pension Plan prior to the due
dates of such contributions under Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of
ERISA, nor has there been any event requiring any disclosure under Section
4041(c)(3)(C) or 4063(a) of ERISA with respect to any Pension Plan;

Section 3(1) of ERISA) currently maintained or contributed to by any Borrower or
any ERISA Affiliate, (B) Pension Plan or (C) Multiemployer Plan.

     (j)  Margin Stock. No Borrower nor any Subsidiary thereof is engaged
principally or as one of its activities in the business of extending credit for
the purpose of "purchasing" or "carrying" any "margin stock" (as each such term
is defined or used in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System). No part of the proceeds of any of the Loans or Letters of
Credit will be used for purchasing or carrying margin stock or for any purpose
which violates, or which would be inconsistent with, the provisions of
Regulation T, U or X of such Board of Governors.

     (k)  Government Regulation. No Borrower nor any Subsidiary thereof is
an "investment company" or a company "controlled" by an "investment company" (as
each such term is defined or used in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended) and no Borrower nor any Subsidiary thereof is, or after giving effect
to any Extension of Credit will be, subject to regulation under the Public
Utility Holding Company Act of 1935 or the Interstate Commerce Act, each as

list of all Material Contracts of each Borrower and each Subsidiary thereof in
effect as of the Closing Date not listed on any other Schedule hereto; other
than as set forth in Schedule 7.1(l), each such Material Contract is, and after

Documents will be, in full force and effect in accordance with the terms
thereof. Each Borrower and each Subsidiary thereof has delivered to the
Administrative

                                       57

<PAGE>

Agent a true and complete copy of each Material Contract which is
required to be listed on Schedule 7.1(l) or any other Schedule hereto and which

Borrower knows of any pending, threatened or contemplated strikes, work stoppage
or other collective labor disputes involving its employees or those of its
Subsidiaries.

     (n)  Burdensome Provisions. No Borrower nor any Subsidiary thereof is a
party to any indenture, agreement, lease or other instrument, or subject to any
corporate or partnership restriction, Governmental Approval or Applicable Law
which is so unusual or burdensome as in the foreseeable future could be
reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Borrower nor any
Subsidiary thereof presently anticipates that future expenditures needed to meet
the provisions of any statutes, orders, rules or regulations of a Governmental
Authority will be so burdensome as to have a Material Adverse Effect.

     (o)  Financial Statements. The Consolidated unaudited balance sheet of the
Company and its Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002 and the related unaudited
statements of income and retained earnings and cash flows for the fiscal quarter
then ended, copies of which have been furnished to the Administrative Agent and
each Lender, are complete and correct and fairly present the assets, liabilities
and financial position of the Company and its Subsidiaries as at such dates, and
the results of the operations and changes of financial position for the periods
then ended. All such financial statements, including the related schedules and
notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company and its
Subsidiaries have no Debt, obligation or other unusual forward or long-term
commitment which is not fairly reflected in the foregoing financial statements
or in the notes thereto.

     (p)  No Material Adverse Change. Since December 31, 2002, there has been no
material adverse change in the properties, business, operations, prospects, or
condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries and
no event has occurred or condition arisen that could reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect.

     (q)  Solvency. As of the Closing Date and after giving effect to each
Extension of Credit made hereunder, each Borrower and each Subsidiary thereof
will be Solvent.

     (r)  Titles to Properties. Each Borrower and each Subsidiary thereof has
such title to the real property owned or leased by it as is necessary or
desirable to the conduct of its business and valid and legal title to all of its
personal property and assets, including, but not limited to, those reflected on
the balance sheets of the Company and its Subsidiaries delivered pursuant to
Section 7.1(o), except those which have been disposed of by any Borrower or any
Subsidiary thereof subsequent to such date which dispositions have been in the
ordinary course of business or as otherwise expressly permitted hereunder. All
of the real property owned or leased by any Borrower is described on Schedule
7.1(r) hereto.

                                       58

<PAGE>

     (s)  Liens. None of the properties and assets of any Borrower or any
Subsidiary thereof is subject to any Lien, except Liens permitted pursuant to
Section 11.3. No financing statement under the Uniform Commercial Code of any
state which names any Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof or any of their
respective trade names or divisions as debtor, and which has not been
terminated, has been filed in any state or other jurisdiction and no Borrower
nor any Subsidiary thereof has signed any such financing statement or any
security agreement authorizing any secured party thereunder to file any such
financing statement, except to perfect those Liens permitted by Section 11.3
hereof.

     (t)  Debt and Guaranty Obligations. Schedule 7.1(t) is a complete and
correct listing of all Debt and Guaranty Obligations of each Borrower and each
Subsidiary thereof as of the Closing Date in excess of $2,000,000. Each Borrower
and each Subsidiary thereof has performed and is in compliance with all of the
terms of such Debt and Guaranty Obligations and all instruments and agreements
relating thereto, and no default or event of default, or event or condition
which with notice or lapse of time or both would constitute such a default or
event of default on the part of any Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof exists
with respect to any such Debt or Guaranty Obligation.

     (u)  Litigation. Except as set forth on Schedule 7.1(u), as of the Closing
Date there are no Material actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the
knowledge of any Borrower, threatened against or in any way relating adversely
to or affecting any Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof or any of their
respective properties in any court or before any arbitrator or any kind or
before or by any Governmental Authority. For purposes of this Section 7.1(u)
only, "Material" shall mean any such actions, suits or proceedings with an
actual or potential amount in controversy greater than $1,000,000 or that would
have or could lead to a Material Adverse Effect on any Borrower or any
Subsidiary thereof.

     (v)  Absence of Defaults. No event has occurred or is continuing (i) which
constitutes a Default or an Event of Default or (ii) which constitutes, or which
with the passage of time or giving of notice or both would constitute, a default
or event of default by any Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof under any Material
Contract or any judgment, decree or order to which any Borrower or any
Subsidiary thereof is a party or by which any Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof
or any of their respective properties may be bound or which would require any
Borrower or its Subsidiaries to make any payment thereunder prior to the
scheduled maturity date therefor (except, with respect to clause (ii), where
such default or defaults, if any, could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect).

     (w)  Senior Debt Status. The Obligations of the Borrowers and their
Subsidiaries under this Agreement, the Notes and each other Loan Document to
which each such Person is a party (i) do rank and will rank at least senior in
priority of payment to all Subordinated Debt and all senior unsecured Debt of
each such Person and (ii) is hereby designated as "Senior Indebtedness" or
"Designated Senior Indebtedness", as applicable, under all instruments and
documents, now or in the future, relating to all Subordinated Debt and all
senior unsecured Debt of each such Person.

                                       59

<PAGE>

     (x)  No Hostile Acquisitions. No part of the proceeds of the Loans or the
Letters of Credit will be used to finance any Permitted Acquisition unless the
board of directors (or other governing body) or the shareholders of the Person
to be acquired and/or seller, as applicable, shall have previously approved such
transaction.

     (y)  Accuracy and Completeness of Information. All written information,
reports and other papers and data produced by or on behalf of each Borrower and
each Subsidiary thereof and furnished to the Lenders were, at the time the same
were so furnished, complete and correct in all material respects to the extent
necessary to give the recipient a true and accurate knowledge of the subject
matter (other than the business plans and projections delivered on the Closing
Date or pursuant to Section 8.1(c), which business plans and projections shall
represent the good faith opinions of the Company and senior management thereof
as to the projected results contained therein). No document furnished or written
statement made to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders by any Borrower or any
Subsidiary thereof in connection with the negotiation, preparation or execution
of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents contains or will contain any
untrue statement of a fact material to the creditworthiness of any Borrower or
any Subsidiary thereof or omits or will omit to state a fact necessary in order
to make the statements contained therein not misleading. No Borrower is aware of
any facts which it has not disclosed in writing to the Administrative Agent
having a Material Adverse Effect, or insofar as any Borrower can now foresee,
which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

     SECTION 7.2   Survival of Representations and Warranties, Etc. All
representations and warranties set forth in this Article VII and all
representations and warranties contained in any certificate, or any of the Loan
Documents (including, but not limited to, any such representation or warranty

pursuant to the reasonable requirements of its business and upon fair and
reasonable terms that are fully disclosed to and approved in writing by the

observance of any terms, covenants, condition or agreement (after giving effect
to any applicable grace or cure period) under any Hedging Agreement involving

     (g)  Debt Cross-Default. Any Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof shall (i)
default in the payment of any Debt (other than the Notes or any Reimbursement

                                       82

     SECTION 12.2  Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, with
the consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the
request of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to
the Borrowers:

     (a)  Acceleration; Termination of Facilities. Declare the principal of and
interest on the Loans, the Notes and the Reimbursement Obligations at the time
outstanding, and all other amounts owed to the Lenders and to the Administrative
Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents (including,
without limitation, all L/C Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries of the
then outstanding Letters of Credit shall have presented or shall be entitled to
present the documents required thereunder) and all other Obligations (other than
any Hedging Obligations), to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the same
shall immediately become due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or
other notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived, anything in this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, and
terminate the Credit Facility and any right of the Borrowers to request
borrowings or Letters of Credit thereunder; provided, that upon the occurrence
of an Event of Default specified in Section 12.1(j) or (k), the Credit Facility
shall be automatically terminated and all Obligations (other than any Hedging
Obligations) shall automatically become due and payable without presentment,
demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived,
anything in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document to the contrary
notwithstanding.

     (b)  Letters of Credit. With respect to all Letters of Credit with respect
to which presentment for honor shall not have occurred at the time of an
acceleration pursuant to the preceding paragraph, require the Borrowers at such
time to deposit in a cash collateral account opened by the Administrative Agent
an amount equal to the aggregate then undrawn and unexpired amount of such
Letters of Credit. Amounts held in such cash collateral account shall be applied
by the Administrative Agent to the payment of drafts drawn under such Letters of
Credit, and the unused portion thereof after all such Letters of Credit shall
have expired or been fully drawn upon, if any, shall be applied to repay the
other Obligations on a pro rata basis. After all such Letters of Credit shall
have expired or been fully drawn upon, the Reimbursement

                                       83

<PAGE>

Obligation shall have been satisfied and all other Obligations shall have been
paid in full, the balance, if any, in such cash collateral account shall be
returned to the Borrowers.

     (c)  Rights of Collection. Exercise on behalf of the Lenders all of its
other rights and remedies under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and
Applicable Law, in order to satisfy all of the Obligations of the Borrowers.

     SECTION 12.3  Rights and Remedies Cumulative; Non-Waiver; etc. The
enumeration of the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders set forth in this Agreement is not intended to be exhaustive and the
exercise by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of any right or remedy
shall not preclude the exercise of any other rights or remedies, all of which
shall be cumulative, and shall be in addition to any other right or remedy given
hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or that may now or hereafter exist
in law or in equity or by suit or otherwise. No delay or failure to take action
on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right,
power or privilege shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege
or shall be construed to be a waiver of any Event of Default. No course of
dealing between any Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders or their
respective agents or employees shall be effective to change, modify or discharge
any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or to
constitute a waiver of any Event of Default.

                                  ARTICLE XIII

                            THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

     SECTION 13.1  Appointment. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably
designates and appoints Wachovia as Administrative Agent of such Lender under
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents for the term hereof and each such
Lender irrevocably authorizes Wachovia as Administrative Agent for such Lender,
to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are
expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement
and such other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably
incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in
this Agreement or such other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not
have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein and
therein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied
covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall
be read into this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or otherwise exist
against the Administrative Agent. Any reference to the Administrative Agent in
this Article XIII shall be deemed to refer to the Administrative Agent solely in
its capacity as Administrative Agent and not in its capacity as a Lender.

     SECTION 13.2  Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute
any of its respective duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of
counsel concerning all matters pertaining to

                                       84

<PAGE>

such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the
negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by the
Administrative Agent with reasonable care.

     SECTION 13.3  Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Administrative Agent nor
any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact,
Subsidiaries or Affiliates shall be (a) liable for any action lawfully taken or
omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents (except for actions occasioned solely by
its or such Person's own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (b)
responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements,
representations or warranties made by any Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof or
any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or
in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided
for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with,
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or for the value, validity,
effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or
the other Loan Documents or for any failure of any Borrower or any Subsidiary
thereof to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Administrative
Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire
as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or
conditions of, this Agreement, or to inspect the properties, books or records of
any Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof.

     SECTION 13.4  Reliance by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative
Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon
any note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter,
cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or
other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to
have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice
and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the
Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by the
Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of
any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless such Note shall have been
transferred in accordance with Section 14.10 hereof. The Administrative Agent
shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents unless it shall first receive such advice
or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, when expressly required hereby or by
the relevant other Loan Document, all the Lenders) as it deems appropriate or it
shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and
all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or
continuing to take any such action except for its own gross negligence or
willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully
protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the
Notes in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or, when expressly
required hereby, all the Lenders), and such request and any action taken or
failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all
future holders of the Notes.

     SECTION 13.5  Notice of Default. Except for any Default or Event of
Default under Section 12.1(a) or Section 12.1(b), the Administrative Agent shall
not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or
Event of Default hereunder unless it has received notice from a Lender or the
Borrowers referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of
Default and stating that such notice is a "notice of default". In the event that

                                       85

<PAGE>

the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, it shall promptly give notice
thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with
respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by
the Required Lenders (or, when expressly required hereby, all of the Lenders);
provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such
directions, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to take
such action, or refrain from taking such action with respect to such Default or
Event of Default as it shall deem advisable and in the best interests of the
Lenders, except to the extent other provisions of this Agreement expressly
require that any such action be taken or not be taken only with the consent and
authorization or the request of the Lenders or Required Lenders as applicable.

     SECTION 13.6  Non-Reliance on the Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.
Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any
of its respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact,
Subsidiaries or Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and
that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of
the affairs of the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to
constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any
Lender. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other
Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed
appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business,
operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the
Borrowers and their Subsidiaries and made its own decision to make its Loans and
issue or participate in Letters of Credit hereunder and enter into this
Agreement. Each Lender also represents 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 analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking
action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such
investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business,
operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the
Borrowers and their Subsidiaries. Except for notices, reports and other
documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the
Administrative Agent hereunder or by the other Loan Documents, the
Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any
Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations,
property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrowers or
any of their Subsidiaries which may come into the possession of the
Administrative Agent or any of its respective officers, directors, employees,
agents, attorneys-in-fact, Subsidiaries or Affiliates.

     SECTION 13.7  Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the
Administrative Agent in its capacity as such and (to the extent not reimbursed
by the Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so),
ratably according to the respective amounts of their Revolving Credit Commitment
Percentages or Term Loan Percentages, as applicable, from and against any and
all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any
time (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the
Notes or any Reimbursement Obligation) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted
against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or

                                       86

<PAGE>

any documents, reports or other information provided to the Administrative Agent
or any Lender or contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by
the Administrative Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing;
provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely from the Administrative
Agent's bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in
this Section 13.7 shall survive the payment of the Notes, any Reimbursement
Obligation and all other amounts payable hereunder and the termination of this
Agreement.

     SECTION 13.8  The Administrative Agent in Its Individual Capacity. The
Administrative Agent and its respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates may make
loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with
any Borrower as though the Administrative Agent were not the Administrative
Agent hereunder. With respect to any Loans made or renewed by it and any Note
issued to it and with respect to any Letter of Credit issued by it or
participated in by it, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and
powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may
exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms
"Lender" and "Lenders" shall include the Administrative Agent in its individual
capacity.

     SECTION 13.9  Resignation of the Administrative Agent; Successor
Administrative Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor
as provided below, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving
notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrowers. Upon any such resignation, the
Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Company, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, to appoint a successor
Administrative Agent, which successor shall have minimum capital and surplus of
at least $500,000,000. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so
appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment
within thirty (30) days after the Administrative Agent's giving of notice of
resignation, then the Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders,
appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which successor shall have minimum
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 rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring
Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged
from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any retiring Administrative
Agent's resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this
Section 13.9 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions
taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Administrative Agent.

     SECTION 13.10 Documentation Agent and Syndication Agent. The Documentation
Agent and the Syndication Agent, in their respective capacities as documentation
and syndication agents, shall have no duties or responsibilities under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document.

     SECTION 14.1  Notices.

     (a)  Method of Communication. Except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement, all notices and communications hereunder shall be in writing (for
purposes hereof, the term "writing" shall include information in electronic
format such as electronic mail and internet web pages), or by telephone
subsequently confirmed in writing. Any notice shall be effective if delivered by
hand delivery or sent via electronic mail, posting on an internet web page,
telecopy, recognized overnight courier service or certified mail, return receipt
requested, and shall be presumed to be received by a party hereto (i) on the
date of delivery if delivered by hand, or sent by electronic mail, posting on
the Intralinks internet web page or any similar internet or intranet sites
(provided the recipients of such notice have been made specifically aware of the
posting of such notice by any other method permitted by this Section 14.1(a)) or
telecopy, (ii) on the next Business Day if sent by recognized overnight courier
service and (iii) on the third Business Day following the date sent by certified
mail, return receipt requested. A telephonic notice to the Administrative Agent
as understood by the Administrative Agent will be deemed to be the controlling
and proper notice in the event of a discrepancy with or failure to receive a
confirming written notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, electronic mail and
internet websites may be used only to distribute routine communications, such as
financial statements and other information as provided in Section 8.1, and to
distribute Loan Documents for execution by the parties thereto, and may not be
effective for any other purpose.

     (b)  Addresses for Notices. Notices to any party shall be sent to it at
the following addresses, or any other address as to which all the other parties

     If to any Lender:      To the address (including the email address)
                            set forth in the Register

     (c)  Administrative Agent's Office. The Administrative Agent hereby
designates its office located at the address set forth above, or any subsequent
office which shall have been specified for such purpose by written notice to the
Borrowers and the Lenders, as the Administrative Agent's Office referred to
herein, to which payments due are to be made and at which Loans will be
disbursed and Letters of Credit issued.

     SECTION 14.2  Expenses; Indemnity. The Borrowers will (a) pay all
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, all costs of
electronic or internet distribution of any information hereunder) of the
Administrative Agent in connection with (i) the preparation, execution and
delivery of this Agreement and each other Loan Document, whenever the same shall
be executed and delivered, including without limitation all out-of-pocket
syndication and due diligence expenses and reasonable fees and disbursements of
counsel for the Administrative Agent and (ii) the preparation, execution and
delivery of any waiver, amendment or consent by the Administrative Agent or the
Lenders relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including,
without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the
Administrative Agent, (b) pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the
Administrative Agent and each Lender actually incurred in connection with the
administration and enforcement of any rights and remedies of the Administrative
Agent and Lenders under the Credit Facility, including, without limitation, in
connection with any workout, restructuring, bankruptcy or similar preceding,
creating and perfecting Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent on behalf of
the Lenders pursuant to any Security Document, enforcing any Obligations of, or
collecting any payments due from, any Borrower by reason of an Event of Default
(including in connection with the sale of, collection from, or other realization
upon any of the Collateral), consulting with appraisers, accountants, engineers,
attorneys and other Persons concerning the nature, scope or value of any right
or remedy of the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under any other
Loan Document or any factual matters in connection therewith, which expenses
shall include without limitation the reasonable fees and disbursements of such
Persons, and (c) defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent
and the Lenders, and their respective parents, Subsidiaries, Affiliates,
employees, agents, trustees, advisors, officers and directors, from and against
any losses, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs and
expenses, suffered by any such Person in connection with any claim,
investigation, litigation or other proceeding (whether or not the Administrative
Agent or any Lender is a party thereto) and the prosecution and defense thereof,
arising out of or in any way connected with the Agreement,

                                       89

<PAGE>

any other Loan Document or any documents, reports or other information provided
to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or contemplated by or referred to
herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including,
without limitation, reasonable attorney's and consultant's fees, except to the
extent that any of the foregoing directly result from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of the party seeking indemnification therefor.

     SECTION 14.3  Set-off. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted
under Applicable Law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon and
after the occurrence of any Event of Default and during the continuance thereof,
the Lenders and any assignee or participant of a Lender in accordance with
Section 14.10 are hereby authorized by the Borrowers at any time or from time to
time, without notice to the Borrowers or to any other Person, any such notice
being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any
and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, including, but not limited
to, indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or
unmatured) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by the Lenders,
or any such assignee or participant to or for the credit or the account of the
Borrowers against and on account of the Obligations irrespective of whether or
not (a) the Lenders shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any of
the other Loan Documents or (b) the Administrative Agent shall have declared any
or all of the Obligations to be due and payable as permitted by Section 12.2 and
although such Obligations shall be contingent or unmatured. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, each Lender agrees to notify the Company, on behalf of the Borrowers,
and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application; provided
that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such
set-off and application.

     SECTION 14.4  Governing Law. This Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan
Documents, unless otherwise expressly set forth therein, shall be governed by,
construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of North
Carolina, without reference to the conflicts or choice of law principles
thereof.

     SECTION 14.5  Jurisdiction and Venue.

     (a)   Jurisdiction. The Borrowers hereby irrevocably consent to the
personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Mecklenburg
County, North Carolina (and any courts from which an appeal from any of such
courts must or may be taken), in any action, claim or other proceeding arising
out of any dispute in connection with this Agreement, the Notes and the other
Loan Documents, any rights or obligations hereunder or thereunder, or the
performance of such rights and obligations. The Borrowers hereby irrevocably
consent to the service of a summons and complaint and other process in any
action, claim or proceeding brought by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in
connection with this Agreement, the Notes or the other Loan Documents, any
rights or obligations hereunder or thereunder, or the performance of such rights
and obligations, on behalf of itself or its property, in the manner specified in
Section 14.1. Nothing in this Section 14.5 shall affect the right of the
Administrative Agent or any Lender to serve legal process in any other manner
permitted by Applicable Law or affect the right of the Administrative Agent or
any Lender to bring any action or proceeding against any Borrower or its
properties in the courts of any other jurisdictions.

                                       90

<PAGE>

     (b)  Venue. The Borrowers hereby irrevocably waive any objection they may
have now or in the future to the laying of venue in the aforesaid jurisdiction
in any action, claim or other proceeding arising out of or in connection with
this Agreement, any other Loan Document or the rights and obligations of the
parties hereunder or thereunder. The Borrowers irrevocably waive, in connection
with such action, claim or proceeding, any plea or claim that the action, claim
or other proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

     SECTION 14.6  Binding Arbitration; Waiver of Jury Trial.

     (a)  Binding Arbitration. Upon demand of any party, whether made before or
after institution of any judicial proceeding, any dispute, claim or controversy
arising out of, connected with or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan
Document ("Disputes"), between or among parties hereto and to the other Loan
Documents shall be resolved by binding arbitration as provided herein.
Institution of a judicial proceeding by a party does not waive the right of that
party to demand arbitration hereunder. Disputes may include, without limitation,
tort claims, counterclaims, claims brought as class actions, claims arising from
Loan Documents executed in the future, disputes as to whether a matter is
subject to arbitration, or claims concerning any aspect of the past, present or
future relationships arising out of or connected with the Loan Documents.
Arbitration shall be conducted under and governed by the Commercial Financial
Disputes Arbitration Rules (the "Arbitration Rules") of the American Arbitration
Association (the "AAA") and the Federal Arbitration Act. All arbitration
hearings shall be conducted in Charlotte, North Carolina. The expedited
procedures set forth in Rule 51, et seq. of the Arbitration Rules shall be
applicable to claims of less than $1,000,000. All applicable statutes of
limitations shall apply to any Dispute. A judgment upon the award may be entered
in any court having jurisdiction. Notwithstanding anything foregoing to the
contrary, any arbitration proceeding demanded hereunder shall begin within
ninety (90) days after such demand thereof and shall be concluded within one
hundred twenty (120) days after such demand. These time limitations may not be
extended unless a party hereto shows cause for extension and then such extension
shall not exceed a total of sixty (60) days. The panel from which all
arbitrators are selected shall be comprised of licensed attorneys selected from
the Commercial Financial Dispute Arbitration Panel of the AAA. The single
arbitrator selected for expedited procedure shall be a retired judge from the
highest court of general jurisdiction, state or federal, of the state where the
hearing will be conducted. The parties hereto do not waive any applicable
Federal or state substantive law except as provided herein. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, this paragraph shall not apply to any Hedging Agreement.

     (b)  Jury Trial. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, EACH LENDER AND EACH BORROWER
HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT BY AGREEING TO BINDING ARBITRATION THEY HAVE IRREVOCABLY
WAIVED THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTION, CLAIM
OR OTHER PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF ANY DISPUTE IN CONNECTION WITH THIS
AGREEMENT, THE NOTES OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, ANY RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS
HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER, OR THE PERFORMANCE OF SUCH RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS.

                                       91

<PAGE>

     (c)  Preservation of Certain Remedies. Notwithstanding the preceding
binding arbitration provisions, the parties hereto and the other Loan Documents
preserve, without diminution, certain remedies that such Persons may employ or
exercise freely, either alone, in conjunction with or during a Dispute. Each
such Person shall have and hereby reserves the right to proceed in any court of
proper jurisdiction or by self help to exercise or prosecute the following
remedies, as applicable: (i) all rights to foreclose against any real or
personal property or other security by exercising a power of sale granted in the
Loan Documents or under Applicable Law or by judicial foreclosure and sale,
including a proceeding to confirm the sale, (ii) all rights of self help
including peaceful occupation of property and collection of rents, set off, and
peaceful possession of property, (iii) obtaining provisional or ancillary
remedies including injunctive relief, sequestration, garnishment, attachment,
appointment of receiver and in filing an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding, and
(iv) when applicable, a judgment by confession of judgment. Preservation of
these remedies does not limit the power of an arbitrator to grant similar
remedies that may be requested by a party in a Dispute.

     SECTION 14.7  Reversal of Payments. To the extent any Borrower makes a
payment or payments to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the
Lenders or the Administrative Agent receives any payment or proceeds of the
collateral which payments or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently
invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or
required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any
bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to
the extent of such payment or proceeds repaid, the Obligations or part thereof
intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect
as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by the Administrative
Agent.

     SECTION 14.8  Injunctive Relief; Punitive Damages.

     (a)  The Borrowers recognize that, in the event the Borrowers fail to
perform, observe or discharge any of their obligations or liabilities under this
Agreement, any remedy of law may prove to be inadequate relief to the Lenders.
Therefore, the Borrowers agree that the Lenders, at the Lenders' option, shall
be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such case
without the necessity of proving actual damages.

     (b)  The Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrowers (on behalf of
themselves and their Subsidiaries) hereby agree that no such Person shall have a
remedy of punitive or exemplary damages against any other party to a Loan
Document and each such Person hereby waives any right or claim to punitive or
exemplary damages that they may now have or may arise in the future in
connection with any Dispute, whether such Dispute is resolved through
arbitration or judicially.

     SECTION 14.9  Accounting Matters. All financial and accounting terms,
calculations, measurements and computations made for any purpose relating to
this Agreement, including, without limitation, all computations utilized by the
Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries to determine compliance with any covenant
contained herein, shall, except as otherwise expressly contemplated hereby or
unless there is an express written direction by the Administrative Agent to the
contrary agreed to by the Borrowers, be performed or construed in

                                       92

<PAGE>

accordance with GAAP as in effect on the Closing Date. In the event that changes
in GAAP shall be mandated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or any
similar accounting body of comparable standing, or shall be recommended by the
certified public accountants of the Borrowers, to the extent that such changes
would modify such accounting terms or the interpretation or computation thereof,
such changes shall be followed in defining such accounting terms only from and
after the date the Borrowers and the Lenders shall have amended this Agreement
to the extent necessary to reflect any such changes in the financial covenants
and other terms and conditions of this Agreement.

     SECTION 14.10 Successors and Assigns; Participations.

     (a)  Benefit of Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure
to the benefit of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, all
future holders of the Notes, and their respective successors and assigns, except
that no Borrower shall assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under
this Agreement without the prior written consent of each Lender.

     (b)  Assignment by Lenders. Each Lender may, in the ordinary course of its
business and in accordance with Applicable Law, sell or assign to (1) any
Lender, any Affiliate of a Lender or, in the case of the Term Loans, any
Approved Fund and (2) with the consent of the Administrative Agent and, so long
as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company on
behalf of the Borrowers (provided that no such consents shall be required for
assignments of Term Loans by the Administrative Agent to an Eligible Assignee
that are completed within ten (10) Business Days of the Closing Date or the
Additional Term Loan Effective Date, as applicable), which consents shall not be
unreasonably withheld, assign to one or more other Eligible Assignees (any of
the foregoing assignees or purchasers, a "Purchasing Lender") all or a portion
of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents (including, without limitation, all or a portion of the Extensions of
Credit at the time owing to it and the Notes held by it); provided that:

          (i)   each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying
     percentage of, the applicable Commitment of the assigning Lender's rights
     and obligations under this Agreement;

          (ii)  if less than all of the assigning Lender's Revolving Credit
     Commitment or Term Loan Commitment, as applicable, is to be assigned, (A)
     the Revolving Credit Commitment so assigned shall not be less than
     $1,000,000 and (B) the Term Loan Commitment and/or the Term Loans so
     assigned shall not be less than $1,000,000 (or any lesser amount otherwise
     agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers); provided that no
     minimum assignment amount shall be applicable with respect to any
     assignment made to an existing Lender, to an Affiliate thereof, or (with
     respect to any Term Loan) to an Approved Fund;

          (iii) the Purchasing Lender shall have delivered to the Administrative
     Agent all United States Internal Revenue Service Forms required pursuant to
     Section 5.11(e) and all of the parties to each such assignment shall
     execute and deliver to the Administrative

                                       93

<PAGE>

     Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and
     Acceptance substantially in the form of Exhibit G attached hereto (an
     "Assignment and Acceptance"), together with (to the extent requested by any
     Purchasing Lender) any Note or Notes subject to such assignment;

          (iv)  where consent of the Company to an assignment to a Purchasing
     Lender is required hereunder (including consent to an assignment to an
     Approved Fund), the Company shall be deemed to have given its consent five
     (5) Business Days after the date written notice thereof has been received
     by the Company (after delivery by the assigning Lender through the
     Administrative Agent) unless such consent is expressly refused by the
     Company prior to such fifth (5/th/) Business Day;

          (v)   such assignment shall not, without the consent of the Company on
     behalf of the Borrowers, require the Borrowers to file a registration
     statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission or apply to or
     qualify the Loans or the Notes under the blue sky laws of any state; and

          (vi)  the assigning Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent an
     assignment fee of $3,500 upon the execution by such Lender of the
     Assignment and Acceptance; provided that no such fee shall be payable upon
     any assignment by a Lender to an Affiliate thereof; and provided further
     that, in any case of contemporaneous assignments by a Lender (including a
     group of affiliated Lenders that are funds managed by the same investment
     advisor) to a single assignee or more than one fund managed by the same
     investment advisor (which funds are not then Lenders hereunder), only a
     single $3,500 fee shall be payable for all such contemporaneous
     assignments.

Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the
effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, (A) the Purchasing
Lender thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such
Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereby
and (B) the Lender thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such assignment,
be released from its obligations under this Agreement.

     (c)  Rights and Duties Upon Assignment. By executing and delivering an
Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender thereunder and the Purchasing
Lender thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties
hereto as set forth in such Assignment and Acceptance.

     (d)  Register. The Administrative Agent shall maintain a copy of each
Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of
the names and addresses of the Lenders and the amount of the Extensions of
Credit with respect to each Lender from time to time (the "Register"). The
entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error,
and the Borrowers, 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 Borrowers at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior
notice.

                                       94

<PAGE>

     (e)  Issuance of New Notes. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and
Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and a Purchasing Lender together with
any Note or Notes (if applicable) subject to such assignment and (if applicable)
the written consent to such assignment, the Administrative Agent shall, if such
Assignment and Acceptance has been completed and is substantially in the form of
Exhibit G:

     (i)   accept such Assignment and Acceptance;

     (ii)  record the information contained therein in the Register;

     (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrowers; and

     (iv)  promptly deliver a copy of such Assignment and Acceptance to the
           Borrowers.

Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of notice, the Borrowers shall
execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, in exchange for the surrendered
Note or Notes, a new Note or Notes to the order of the Purchasing Lender (to the
extent requested thereby) in amounts equal to the Revolving Credit Commitment or
the Term Loan Commitment, as applicable, assumed by it pursuant to such
Assignment and Acceptance and a new Note or Notes to the order of the assigning
Lender (to the extent requested thereby) in an amount equal to the Revolving
Credit Commitment or the Term Loan Commitment, as applicable, retained by it
hereunder. Such new Note or Notes shall be in an aggregate principal amount
equal to the aggregate principal amount of such surrendered Note or Notes, shall
be dated the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance and shall
otherwise be in substantially the form of the assigned Notes delivered to the
assigning Lender. Each surrendered Note or Notes shall be canceled and returned
to the Company on behalf of the Borrowers. Notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, any Lender which has not been issued a Note or Notes
hereunder may at any time deliver a written request for a Note or Notes to the
Administrative Agent and the Company. Within five (5) Business Days after
receipt of notice (unless otherwise agreed to by such Lender), the Borrowers
shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, a Note or Notes (as
applicable) to the order of such Lender in amounts equal to the Revolving Credit
Commitment or the Term Loan Commitment, as applicable, of such Lender. Upon
receipt thereby, the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver such Note or
Notes to such Lender.

     (f)  Participations. Each Lender may, without notice to or the consent of
the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, in the ordinary course of its
commercial banking business or financial institution business and in accordance
with Applicable Law, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities
(any such bank or other entity, a "Participant") in all or a portion of its
rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all
or a portion of its Extensions of Credit and the Notes held by it); provided
that:

     (i)   such Lender's obligations under this Agreement (including, without
limitation, its Revolving Credit Commitment and/or its Term Loan Commitment)
shall remain unchanged;

                                       95

<PAGE>

     (ii)  such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties
hereto for the performance of such obligations;

     (iii) such Lender shall remain the holder of the Notes held by it for all
purposes of this Agreement;

     (iv)  the Borrowers, 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;

     (v)   such Lender shall not permit such Participant the right to approve
any waivers, amendments or other modifications to this Agreement or any other
Loan Document other than waivers, amendments or modifications which would reduce
the principal of or the interest rate on any Loan or any Reimbursement
Obligation, extend the term or increase the amount of the Revolving Credit
Commitment or the Term Loan Commitment of such Lender, reduce the amount of any
fees to which such Participant is entitled, extend any scheduled payment date
for principal of any Loan or, except as expressly contemplated hereby or
thereby, release substantially all of the Collateral; and

     (vi)  any such disposition shall not, without the consent of the Company on
behalf of the Borrowers, require the Borrowers to file a registration statement
with the Securities and Exchange Commission to apply to qualify the Loans or the
Notes under the blue sky law of any state.

     The Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits
of Section 5.7, Section 5.8, Section 5.9, Section 5.10, Section 5.11 and Section
14.3 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by
assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 14.10; provided that a
Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section
5.7, Section 5.8, Section 5.9, Section 5.10, Section 5.11 and Section 14.3 than
the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the
participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to
such Participant is made with the Borrowers' prior written consent and such
Participant shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent all United States
Internal Revenue Service Forms required pursuant to Section 5.11(e).

     (g)  Disclosure of Information; Confidentiality. The Administrative Agent
and the Lenders shall hold all non-public information with respect to the
Borrowers obtained pursuant to the Loan Documents (or any Hedging Agreement with
a Lender or the Administrative Agent) in accordance with their customary
procedures for handling confidential information; provided, that the
Administrative Agent may disclose information relating to this Agreement to Gold
Sheets and other similar bank trade publications, such information to consist of
deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications and
provided further, that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may disclose any
such information to the extent such disclosure (i) is required by law or
requested or required pursuant to any legal process, (ii) is requested by, or
required to be disclosed to, any rating agency, or regulatory or similar
authority (including, without limitation, the National Association of Insurance
Commissioners), (iii) is used in any suit, action or proceeding for the purpose
of defending itself, reducing its liability or protecting

                                       96

<PAGE>

any of its claims, rights, remedies or interests under or in connection with the
Loan Documents (or any Hedging Agreement with a Lender or the Administrative
Agent) or (iv) relates to the "tax treatment" or "tax structure" (in each case
within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4) of the transactions
contemplated hereby and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other
tax analyses) that are provided to the Administrative Agent or such Lender
relating to such tax treatment or tax structure. Any Lender may, in connection
with any assignment, proposed assignment, participation or proposed
participation pursuant to this Section 14.10, disclose to the Purchasing Lender,
the proposed Purchasing Lender, the Participant, the proposed Participant or any
direct or indirect contractual counterparty in swap agreements or such
contractual counterparty's professional advisor, any information relating to the
Borrowers furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrowers; provided,
that prior to any such disclosure, each such Purchasing Lender, proposed
Purchasing Lender, Participant, proposed Participant, contractual counterparty
or professional advisor shall agree to be bound by the provisions of this
Section 14.10(g).

     (h)  Certain Pledges or Assignments. Any Lender may at any time pledge or
assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document to secure obligations of such Lender,
including, without limitation, any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to
a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security
interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or
substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

     SECTION 14.11 Amendments, Waivers and Consents. Except as set forth below
or as specifically provided in any Loan Document, any term, covenant, agreement
or condition of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents may be amended
or waived by the Lenders, and any consent given by the Lenders, if, but only if,
such amendment, waiver or consent is in writing signed by the Required Lenders

     SECTION 14.16  Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this Agreement
or any other Loan Document which is prohibited or unenforceable in any

validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

     SECTION 14.17  Counterparts; Facsimile Signatures.

     (a)  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 shall be binding upon all
parties, their successors and assigns, and all of which taken together shall
constitute one and the same agreement.

     (b)  A facsimile, telecopy or other reproduction of this Agreement may be
executed by one or more parties hereto, and an executed copy of this Agreement
may be delivered by one or more parties hereto by facsimile or similar
instantaneous electronic transmission device pursuant to which the signature of

as well as any facsimile, telecopy or other reproduction hereof.

     SECTION 14.18  Company as Agent for the Borrowers. The Borrowers hereby
irrevocably appoint and authorize the Company (i) to provide the Administrative
Agent with all notices with respect to Extensions of Credit obtained for the
benefit of any Borrower and all other notices and instructions under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) to take such action on behalf of
the Borrowers as the Company deems appropriate on its behalf to obtain
Extensions of Credit and to exercise such other powers as are reasonably
incidental to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents.

     SECTION 14.19  Obligations Joint and Several; Contribution.

     (a)  The Borrowers shall be jointly and severally liable for the
Obligations, however incurred. References to the Borrowers with respect to the
Obligations or any portion thereof shall mean each Borrower on a joint and
several basis.

     (b)  To the extent any Borrower is required, by reason of its Obligations
hereunder, to pay to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or to any other
Borrower an amount greater than the amount of the Extensions of Credit actually
made available to or for the account of such Borrower, such Borrower shall have
an enforceable right of contribution and indemnity against the remaining
Borrowers, and the remaining Borrowers shall be jointly and severally liable to
such Borrower, for repayment of the full amount of such excess payment. Such
Borrower shall be subrogated to any and all rights of the Administrative Agent
and the Lenders against the remaining Borrowers to the extent of such excess
payment. The rights of any Borrower to contribution, subrogation and indemnity
under this Section 14.19 or under Applicable Law shall in all events and all
respects be subject and subordinate to the rights of the Administrative Agent

                                       99

<PAGE>

and the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and subject to
the prior full, final and indefeasible payment to the Administrative Agent and
the Lenders of all Obligations.

     (c)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the
amount of any Borrower's obligations under this Section 14.19 shall in all
events be limited to, but not in excess of, the maximum amount thereof not
subject to avoidance or recovery by operation of Applicable Law governing
bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership, arrangement, adjustment of debts,
relief of debtors, dissolution, insolvency, fraudulent transfers or conveyances
or other similar laws (including, without limitation, 11 U.S.C. Section546,
Section547, Section548, Section550 and other "avoidance" provisions of Title
11 of the United States Code) applicable at any time to such Borrower and this
Agreement.

     SECTION 14.20  Term of Agreement. This Agreement shall remain in effect
from the Closing Date through and including the date upon which all Obligations
shall have been paid and satisfied in full. The Administrative Agent is hereby
permitted to release all Liens on the Collateral in favor of the Administrative
Agent, for the ratable benefit of itself and the Lenders, upon repayment of the
outstanding principal of and all accrued interest on the Loans, payment of all
outstanding fees and expenses hereunder and the termination of the Lender's
Commitments. No termination of this Agreement shall affect the rights and
obligations of the parties hereto arising prior to such termination or in
respect of any provision of this Agreement which survives such termination.

     SECTION 14.21  Advice of Counsel. Each of the parties represents to each
other party hereto that it has discussed this Agreement with its counsel.

     SECTION 14.22  No Strict Construction. The parties hereto have participated
jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an
ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall
be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or
burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the
authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.

     SECTION 14.23  Inconsistencies with Other Documents; Independent Effect of
Covenants.

     (a)  In the event there is a conflict or inconsistency between this
Agreement and any other Loan Document, the terms of this Agreement shall
control; provided, that any provision of the Security Documents which imposes
additional burdens on the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries or further restricts
the rights of the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries or gives the Administrative
Agent or Lenders additional rights shall not be deemed to be in conflict or
inconsistent with this Agreement and shall be given full force and effect.

     (b)  The Borrowers expressly acknowledge and agree that each covenant
contained in Articles IX, X, or XI hereof shall be given independent effect.
Accordingly, the Borrowers shall not engage in any transaction or other act
otherwise permitted under any covenant contained in

                                      100

Articles IX, X, or XI if, before or after giving effect to such transaction or
act, the Borrowers shall or would be in breach of any other covenant contained
in Articles IX, X, or XI.
