THE COMMITMENTS AND CREDIT EXTENSIONS

herein, each Lender severally agrees to make loans (each such loan, a “Committed
Loan”) to the Borrower from time to time, on any Business Day during the
Availability Period, in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time
outstanding the amount of such Lender’s Commitment; provided, however,
that after giving effect to any Committed Borrowing, (i) the Total Outstandings
shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitments, and (ii) the aggregate Outstanding
Amount of the Committed Loans of any Lender, plus such Lender’s
Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, plus
such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line
Loans shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment.  Within the limits of each Lender’s
Commitment, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower
may borrow under this Section 2.01, prepay under Section 2.05,
and reborrow under this Section 2.01. 
Committed Loans may be Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans, as
further provided herein.

Continuations of Committed Loans.  

(a)           Each Committed Borrowing, each
conversion of Committed Loans from one Type to the other, and each continuation
of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be made upon the Borrower’s irrevocable notice
to the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone.  Except with respect to the Eurodollar Loans
converted on the Closing Date pursuant to Section 1.01 as to which
advance notice has been waived, each such notice must be received by the
Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (i) three Business Days prior to
the requested date of any Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of
Eurodollar Rate Loans or of any conversion of Eurodollar Rate Loans to Base
Rate Committed Loans, and (ii) on the requested date of any Borrowing of Base
Rate Committed Loans.  Each telephonic
notice by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.02(a) must be
confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written
Committed Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible
Officer of the Borrower.  Each Borrowing
of, conversion to or continuation of

 26
 

Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount
of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.  Except as provided in Sections 2.03(c)
and 2.04(c), each Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Committed
Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of
$100,000 in excess thereof.  Each

Committed Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, (iv) the Type of

converted, and (v) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with

to specify a Type of Committed Loan in a Committed Loan Notice or if the
Borrower fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation,
then the applicable Committed Loans shall be made as, or converted to, Base
Rate Loans.  Any such automatic
conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the
Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable Eurodollar Rate
Loans.  If the Borrower requests a
Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans in any
such Committed Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be
deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month.

(b)           Following receipt of a Committed Loan
Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the
amount of its Applicable Percentage of the applicable Committed Loans, and if
no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the Borrower,
the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the details of any
automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans described in the preceding
subsection.  In the case of a Committed
Borrowing, each Lender shall make the amount of its Committed Loan available to
the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Administrative
Agent’s Office not later than 12:00 noon on the Business Day specified in the
applicable Committed Loan Notice.  Upon
satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.02
(and, if such Borrowing is the initial Credit Extension, Section 4.01),
the Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the
Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent either by (i)
crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of Bank of America with the
amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in
accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the
Administrative Agent by the Borrower; provided, however, that if,
on the date the Committed Loan Notice with respect to such Borrowing is given
by the Borrower, there are L/C Borrowings outstanding, then the proceeds of
such Borrowing, first, shall be applied to the payment in full of any
such L/C Borrowings, and second, shall be made available to the Borrower
as provided above.

(c)           Except as otherwise provided herein,
a Eurodollar Rate Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an
Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Loan. 
During the existence of a Default, no Loans may be requested as,
converted to or continued as Eurodollar Rate Loans without the consent of the
Required Lenders.

(d)           The Administrative Agent shall
promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to
any Interest Period for Eurodollar Rate Loans upon determination of such
interest rate.  At any time that Base
Rate Loans are outstanding, the Administrative

 27
 

Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders of any
change in Bank of America’s prime rate used in determining the Base Rate
promptly following the public announcement of such change.

(e)           After giving effect to all Committed
Borrowings, all conversions of Committed Loans from one Type to the other, and
all continuations of Committed Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more
than eight Interest Periods in effect with respect to Committed Loans.

(ii)           Promptly after receipt of any Letter
of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer will confirm with the Administrative
Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a
copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Borrower and, if not, the
L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof.  Unless the L/C Issuer has received written
notice from any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Loan Party, at least
one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the
applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained
in Article IV shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms
and conditions hereof, the L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a
Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower (or the applicable Subsidiary)
or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in
accordance with the L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices.  Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter
of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the L/C Issuer a risk participation in
such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s
Applicable Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit.

(iii)          If the Borrower so requests in any
applicable Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer may, in its sole and
absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic
extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”);
provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the L/C
Issuer to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period
(commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior
notice to the beneficiary

 30
 

thereof not later than a
day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period
to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued.  Unless otherwise directed by the L/C Issuer,
the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the L/C Issuer
for any such extension.  Once an
Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to
have authorized (but may not require) the L/C Issuer to permit the extension of
such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter
of Credit Expiration Date; provided, however, that the L/C Issuer
shall not permit any such extension if (A) the L/C Issuer has determined that
it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue
such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof
(by reason of the provisions of clause (ii) or (iii) of Section 2.03(a)
or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in
writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the
Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Required
Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the
Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the
applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied,
and in each such case directing the L/C Issuer not to permit such extension.

(iv)          If the Borrower so requests in any
applicable Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer may, in its sole and
absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that permits the
automatic reinstatement of all or a portion of the stated amount thereof after
any drawing thereunder (each, an “Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit”).  Unless otherwise directed by the L/C Issuer,
the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the L/C Issuer
to permit such reinstatement.  Once an
Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit has been issued, except as provided in the
following sentence, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not
require) the L/C Issuer to reinstate all or a portion of the stated amount
thereof in accordance with the provisions of such Letter of Credit.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such
Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit permits the L/C Issuer to decline to
reinstate all or any portion of the stated amount thereof after a drawing
thereunder by giving notice of such non-reinstatement within a specified number
of days after such drawing (the “Non-Reinstatement Deadline”), the L/C
Issuer shall not permit such reinstatement if it has received a notice (which
may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business
Days before the Non-Reinstatement Deadline (A) from the Administrative Agent
that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such reinstatement or (B)
from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Borrower that one or more of
the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then
satisfied (treating such reinstatement as an L/C Credit Extension for purposes
of this clause) and, in each case, directing the L/C Issuer not to permit such
reinstatement. 

(v)           Promptly after its delivery of any
Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank
with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the L/C Issuer will also
deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy
of such Letter of Credit or amendment.

 31
 

(c)           Drawings and Reimbursements;
Funding of Participations.

(i)            Upon receipt from the beneficiary of
any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit,
the L/C Issuer shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
thereof.  Not later than 11:00 a.m. on
the date of any payment by the L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit (each such
date, an “Honor Date”), the Borrower shall reimburse the L/C Issuer
through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such
drawing.  If the Borrower fails to so
reimburse the L/C Issuer by such time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify each Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing
(the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Lender’s Applicable
Percentage thereof.  In such event, the
Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate
Loans to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed
Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section
2.02 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount
of the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Commitments and the conditions set
forth in Section 4.02 (other than the delivery of a Committed Loan
Notice).  Any notice given by the L/C
Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i)
may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided
that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the
conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

(ii)           Each Lender shall upon any notice
pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) make funds available to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer at the Administrative
Agent’s Office in an amount equal to its Applicable Percentage of the
Unreimbursed Amount not later than 12:00 noon on the Business Day specified in
such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions
of Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Lender that so makes funds available shall
be deemed to have made a Base Rate Committed Loan to the Borrower in such
amount.  The Administrative Agent shall
remit the funds so received to the L/C Issuer.

(iii)          With respect to any Unreimbursed
Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans
because the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 cannot be satisfied or
for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the
L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is
not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand
(together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.  In such event, each Lender’s payment to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section
2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such
L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in
satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03.

(iv)          Until each Lender funds its Committed
Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) to reimburse the
L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect
of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such amount shall be solely for the
account of the L/C Issuer.

(v)           Each Lender’s obligation to make
Committed Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the L/C Issuer for amounts drawn
under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.03(c), shall
be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any

 32
 

circumstance, including
(A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such
Lender may have against the L/C Issuer, the Borrower or any other Person for
any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C)
any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the
foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Committed
Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) is subject to the conditions set
forth in Section 4.02 (other than delivery by the Borrower of a
Committed Loan Notice).  No such making
of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the
Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by the
L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.

(vi)          If any Lender fails to make available
to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer any amount
required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this
Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(ii), the
L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the
Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the
period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment
is immediately available to the L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the
greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the L/C Issuer in
accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any
administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the L/C
Issuer in connection with the foregoing. 
If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid),
the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Committed Loan included in
the relevant Committed Borrowing or L/C Advance in respect of the relevant L/C
Borrowing, as the case may be.  A
certificate of the L/C Issuer submitted to any Lender (through the
Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vi)
shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d)           Repayment of Participations.  

(i)            At any time after the L/C Issuer has
made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Lender such
Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section
2.03(c), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of the L/C
Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest
thereon (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of
Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the
Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender its Applicable Percentage
thereof in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent.

(ii)           If any payment received by the
Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section
2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances
described in Section 10.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered
into by the L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to the Administrative
Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer its Applicable Percentage thereof on
demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such
demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum
equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.  The obligations of the Lenders under this
clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination
of this Agreement.

 33
 

(e)           Obligations Absolute.  The obligation of
the Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of
Credit and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and
irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

(i)            any lack of validity or
enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other Loan
Document;

(ii)           the existence of any claim,
counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that the Borrower or any
Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of
such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such
transferee may be acting), the L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in
connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such
Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any
unrelated transaction;

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

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

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

The Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each
Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the
event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrower’s instructions or other
irregularity, the Borrower will immediately notify the L/C Issuer.  The Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to
have waived any such claim against the L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless
such notice is given as aforesaid.

(f)            Role of L/C Issuer.  Each Lender and the
Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the L/C
Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any
sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of
Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such
document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such
document.  None of the L/C Issuer, the
Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any
correspondent, participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable to any
Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the
request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders,

 34
 

as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the
absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution,
effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related
to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document. 
The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any
beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided,
however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not,
preclude the Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have
against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement.  None of the L/C Issuer, the Administrative
Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent,
participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any
of the matters described in clauses (i) through (v) of Section 2.03(e); provided,
however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding,
the Borrower may have a claim against the L/C Issuer, and the L/C Issuer may be
liable to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct,
as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrower
which the Borrower proves were caused by the L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or
gross negligence or the L/C Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of
Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and
certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of
Credit.   In furtherance and not in limitation of the
foregoing, the L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be
in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any
notice or information to the contrary, and the L/C Issuer shall not be
responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or
assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights
or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may
prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.

(g)           Cash Collateral.  Upon the request of the Administrative Agent,
(i) if the L/C Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under any
Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing, or (ii) if,
as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason
remains outstanding, the Borrower shall, in each case, immediately Cash
Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations.  Sections 2.05 and 8.02(c) set
forth certain additional requirements to deliver Cash Collateral
hereunder.  For purposes of this Section
2.03, Section 2.05  and Section
8.02(c), “Cash Collateralize” means to pledge and deposit with or
deliver to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuer and the
Lenders, as collateral for the L/C Obligations, cash or deposit account
balances pursuant to documentation in form and substance satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer (which documents are hereby consented
to by the Lenders).  Derivatives of such
term have corresponding meanings.  The
Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the L/C
Issuer and the Lenders, a security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts
and all balances therein and all proceeds of the foregoing.  Cash Collateral shall be maintained in
blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Bank of America.

(h)           Applicability of ISP.  Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the L/C
Issuer and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such
agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit) the rules of the ISP
shall apply to each Letter of Credit.

(i)            Letter of Credit Fees.  The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative
Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage
a Letter of Credit fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”)  for
each Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Rate times the daily
amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit.  For purposes of computing the daily

 35
 

amount available to be drawn under any Letter of
Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance
with Section 1.07.  Letter of
Credit Fees shall be (i) due and payable on the first Business Day after the
end of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such
date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of
Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand and (ii) computed on a
quarterly basis in arrears.  If there is
any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the daily amount
available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit shall be computed and
multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such
quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of
Default exists, all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate.

(j)            Fronting Fee and Documentary and
Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuer.  The Borrower shall pay directly to
the L/C Issuer for its own account a fronting fee with respect to each Letter
of Credit, at the rate per annum specified in the Fee Letter, computed on the
daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and on a quarterly
basis in arrears.  Such fronting fee
shall be due and payable on the tenth Business Day after the end of each March,
June, September and December in respect of the most recently-ended quarterly
period (or portion thereof, in the case of the first payment), commencing with
the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on
the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand.  For purposes of computing the daily amount
available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of
Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.07.  In addition, the Borrower shall pay directly
to the L/C Issuer for its own account the customary issuance, presentation,
amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of
the L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time to time in
effect.  Such customary fees and standard
costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable.

(k)           Conflict with Issuer Documents.  In the event of any conflict between the
terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall
control.

(l)            Letters of Credit Issued for
Subsidiaries.  Notwithstanding that a
Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any
obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary, the Borrower shall be
obligated to reimburse the L/C Issuer hereunder for any and all drawings under
such Letter of Credit.  The Borrower
hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of
Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s
business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such
Subsidiaries.  

Section
2.04         Swing Line Loans.  

(a)           The Swing Line.  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth
herein, the Swing Line Lender agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the
other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.04,  to make loans (each such loan, a “Swing
Line Loan”) to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during
the Availability Period in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time
outstanding the amount of the Swing Line Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact
that such Swing Line Loans, when aggregated with the Applicable Percentage of
the Outstanding Amount of Committed Loans and L/C Obligations of the Lender
acting as Swing Line Lender, may

 36
 

exceed the amount of such Lender’s Commitment; provided,
however, that after giving effect to any Swing Line Loan, (i) the Total
Outstandings shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitments, and (ii) the aggregate
Outstanding Amount of the Committed Loans of any Lender, plus such
Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C
Obligations, plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding
Amount of all Swing Line Loans shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment, and provided,
further, that the Borrower shall not use the proceeds of any Swing Line
Loan to refinance any outstanding Swing Line Loan.  Within the foregoing limits, and subject to
the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow under this Section
2.04, prepay under Section 2.05, and reborrow under this Section
2.04.  Each Swing Line Loan shall be
a Base Rate Loan.  Immediately upon the
making of a Swing Line Loan, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender
a risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product
of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage times the amount of such Swing
Line Loan.

(b)           Borrowing Procedures.  Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made upon
the Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Swing Line Lender and the
Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be
received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than
12:00 noon on the requested borrowing date, and shall specify (i) the amount to
be borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $100,000, and (ii) the requested
borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day. 
Each such telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to
the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent of a written Swing Line Loan
Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the
Borrower.  Promptly after receipt by the
Swing Line Lender of any telephonic Swing Line Loan Notice, the Swing Line
Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing)
that the Administrative Agent has also received such Swing Line Loan Notice
and, if not, the Swing Line Lender will notify the Administrative Agent (by
telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof.  Unless the Swing Line Lender has received
notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at
the request of any Lender) prior to 12:00 noon on the date of the proposed
Swing Line Borrowing (A) directing the Swing Line Lender not to make such Swing
Line Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the proviso to the first
sentence of Section 2.04(a), or (B) that one or more of the applicable
conditions specified in Article IV is not then satisfied, then, subject
to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender will, not later than
2:00 p.m. on the borrowing date specified in such Swing Line Loan Notice, make the
amount of its Swing Line Loan available to the Borrower at its office by
crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of the Swing Line Lender in
immediately available funds.

(c)           Refinancing of Swing Line Loans.

(i)            The Swing Line Lender at any time in
its sole and absolute discretion may request, on behalf of the Borrower (which
hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so request on its
behalf), that each Lender make a Base Rate Committed Loan in an amount equal to
such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the amount of Swing Line Loans then
outstanding.  Such request shall be made
in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a Committed Loan Notice
for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.02,
without regard to the minimum and multiples

 37
 

specified therein for the
principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion of
the Aggregate Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02.  The Swing Line Lender shall furnish the
Borrower with a copy of the applicable Committed Loan Notice promptly after
delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent.  Each Lender shall make an amount equal to its
Applicable Percentage of the amount specified in such Committed Loan Notice
available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds for the
account of the Swing Line Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later
than 12:00 noon on the day specified in such Committed Loan Notice, whereupon,
subject to Section 2.04(c)(ii), each Lender that so makes funds
available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Committed Loan to the
Borrower in such amount.  The
Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swing Line Lender.

(ii)           If for any reason any Swing Line Loan
cannot be refinanced by such a Committed Borrowing in accordance with Section
2.04(c)(i), the request for Base Rate Committed Loans submitted by the
Swing Line Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the
Swing Line Lender that each of the Lenders fund its risk participation in the
relevant Swing Line Loan and each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent
for the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(i)
shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation.

(iii)          If any Lender fails to make available
to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender any amount
required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this
Section 2.04(c) by the time specified in Section 2.04(c)(i), the
Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through
the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the
period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment
is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a rate per annum equal to
the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Swing Line
Lender in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation,
plus any administrative processing or similar fees customarily charged by the
Swing Line Lender in connection with the foregoing.  If such Lender pays such amount (with
interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such
Lender’s Committed Loan included in the relevant Committed Borrowing or funded
participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan, as the case may be.  A certificate of the Swing Line Lender
submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any
amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive absent manifest
error.

(iv)          Each Lender’s obligation to make
Committed Loans or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swing Line Loans
pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and
shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff,
counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have
against the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason
whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other
occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing;
provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Committed Loans
pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) is subject to the conditions set forth
in Section 4.02.  No such funding
of risk

 38
 

participations shall
relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to repay Swing Line
Loans, together with interest as provided herein.

(d)           Repayment of Participations.  

(i)            At any time after any Lender has
purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swing Line Loan, if the Swing
Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Loan, the Swing
Line Lender will distribute to such Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof in
the same funds as those received by the Swing Line Lender.

(ii)           If any payment received by the Swing
Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swing Line Loan is
required to be returned by the Swing Line Lender under any of the circumstances
described in Section 10.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered
into by the Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to the
Swing Line Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof on demand of the
Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the
date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds
Rate.  The Administrative Agent will make
such demand upon the request of the Swing Line Lender.  The obligations of the Lenders under this
clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination
of this Agreement.

(e)           Interest for Account of Swing Line
Lender.  The Swing Line Lender shall
be responsible for invoicing the Borrower for interest on the Swing Line
Loans.  Until each Lender funds its Base
Rate Committed Loan or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.04
to refinance such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of any Swing Line Loan,
interest in respect of such Applicable Percentage shall be solely for the
account of the Swing Line Lender.

(f)            Payments Directly to Swing Line
Lender.  The Borrower shall make all
payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line Loans directly
to the Swing Line Lender.

Section
2.05         Prepayments.  

(a)           The Borrower may, upon notice to the
Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay
Committed Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that
(i) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than
11:00 a.m. (A) three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of
Eurodollar Rate Loans and (B) on the date of prepayment of Base Rate Committed
Loans; (ii) any prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a principal
amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; and
(iii) any prepayment of Base Rate Committed Loans shall be in a principal
amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof or, in
each case, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding.  Each such notice shall specify the date and
amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of Committed Loans to be prepaid and,
if Eurodollar Rate Loans are to be repaid, the Interest Period(s) of such
Loans.  The Administrative Agent will
promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the
amount of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such prepayment.  If such notice is given by the Borrower, the
Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such
notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein.  Any prepayment of a

 39
 

Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all
accrued interest on the amount prepaid, together with any additional amounts
required pursuant to Section 3.05. 
Each such prepayment shall be applied to the Committed Loans of the
Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages.

(b)           The Borrower may, upon notice to the
Swing Line Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at any time or from
time to time, voluntarily prepay Swing Line Loans in whole or in part without
premium or penalty; provided that (i) such notice must be received by the Swing
Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon on the date
of the prepayment, and (ii) any such prepayment shall be in a minimum principal
amount of $100,000.  Each such notice
shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment.  If such notice is given by the Borrower, the
Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such
notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein.

(c)           If for any reason the Total
Outstandings at any time exceed the Aggregate Commitments then in effect, the
Borrower shall immediately prepay Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C
Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to such excess; provided, however,
that the Borrower shall not be required to Cash Collateralize the L/C
Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.05(c) unless after the prepayment
in full of the Loans the Total Outstandings exceed the Aggregate Commitments
then in effect.

Section
2.06         Termination or Reduction of
Commitments.  The
Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate the Aggregate
Commitments, or from time to time permanently reduce the Aggregate Commitments;
provided that (i) any such notice shall be received by the
Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. five Business Days prior to the
date of termination or reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in
an aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in
excess thereof, (iii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Aggregate
Commitments if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments
hereunder, the Total Outstandings would exceed the Aggregate Commitments, and
(iv) if, after giving effect to any reduction of the Aggregate Commitments, the
Financial Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit exceeds the
amount of the Aggregate Commitments, such Sublimit shall be automatically
reduced by the amount of such excess. 
The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such
notice of termination or reduction of the Aggregate Commitments.  Any reduction of the Aggregate Commitments
shall be applied to the Commitment of each Lender according to its Applicable
Percentage.  All fees accrued until the
effective date of any termination of the Aggregate Commitments shall be paid on
the effective date of such termination.

Section
2.07         Repayment of Loans.  

(a)           The Borrower shall repay to the
Lenders on the Maturity Date the aggregate principal amount of Committed Loans
outstanding on such date.

(b)           The Borrower shall repay each Swing
Line Loan on the earlier to occur of (i) the date ten Business Days after such Loan
is made and (ii) the Maturity Date.

 40
 

Section 2.08         Interest.  

(a)           Subject to the provisions of
subsection (b) below, (i) each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall bear interest on the
outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum
equal to the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate;
(ii) each Base Rate Committed Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding
principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum
equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate; and (iii) each Swing Line Loan
shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the
applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the
Applicable Rate.

(b)           (i)            If
any amount of principal of any Loan is not paid when due (without regard to any
applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or
otherwise, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest
rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable Laws.

(ii)           If any amount (other than principal
of any Loan) payable by the Borrower under any Loan Document is not paid when
due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated
maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, then upon the request of the Required
Lenders, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest
rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable Laws.

(iii)          Upon the request of the Required
Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, the Borrower shall pay interest on
the principal amount of all outstanding Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating
interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest
extent permitted by applicable Laws.

(iv)          Accrued and unpaid interest on past
due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable
upon demand.

(c)           Interest on each Loan shall be due
and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at
such other times as may be specified herein. 
Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms
hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any
proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

Section
2.09         Fees.  In addition to certain fees described in
subsections (i) and (j) of Section 2.03:

(a)           Commitment Fee.  The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative
Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Applicable
Percentage, a commitment fee equal to the Applicable Rate times the
actual daily amount by which the Aggregate Commitments exceed the sum of (i)
the Outstanding Amount of Committed Loans (not including Swing Line Loans) and
(ii) the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations. 
The commitment fee shall accrue at all times during the Availability
Period, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article
IV is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the
last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with
the first such

 41
 

date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the last
day of the Availability Period.  The
commitment fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any
change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall
be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period
during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect.

(b)           Other Fees.    

(i)            The Borrower shall pay to BAS and
the Administrative Agent for their own respective accounts fees in the amounts
and at the times specified in the Fee Letter. 
Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable
for any reason whatsoever.

(ii)           The Borrower shall pay to the Lenders
such fees as shall have been separately agreed upon in writing in the amounts
and at the times so specified.  Such fees
shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason
whatsoever.

Section
2.10         Computation of Interest and
Fees; Retroactive Adjustments of Applicable Rate.  

(a)           All computations of interest for Base
Rate Loans when the Base Rate is determined by Bank of America’s “prime rate”
shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be,
and actual days elapsed.  All other
computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year
and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable,
being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year).  Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the
day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion
thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided
that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject
to Section 2.12(a), bear interest for one day.  Each determination by the Administrative
Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for
all purposes, absent manifest error.

(b)           If, as a result of any restatement of
or other adjustment to the financial statements of the Borrower or for any
other reason, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines
that (i) the Consolidated Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Borrower as of
any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the
Consolidated Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such
period, the Borrower shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to
the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, promptly on
demand by the Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or
deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under the
Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and without further action
by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer), an amount equal to
the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for
such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period.
This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent, any
Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, under Section 2.03(c)(iii),
2.03(i) or 2.08(b) or under Article VIII.  The Borrower’s obligations under this paragraph
shall survive the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment of
all other Obligations hereunder.

 42
 

Section
2.11         Evidence of Debt.  

(a)           The Credit Extensions made by each
Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such
Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business.  The accounts or records maintained by the
Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of
the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the
interest and payments thereon.  Any
failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or
otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount
owing with respect to the Obligations. 
In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained
by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in
respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent
shall control in the absence of manifest error. 
Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent,
the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the
Administrative Agent) a Note, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in
addition to such accounts or records. 
Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the
date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with
respect thereto.

(b)           In addition to the accounts and
records referred to in subsection (a), each Lender and the Administrative Agent
shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records
evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters
of Credit and Swing Line Loans.  In the
event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the
Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of
such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall
control in the absence of manifest error.

Section
2.12         Payments Generally;
Administrative Agent’s Clawback.  

(a)           General.  All payments to be made by the Borrower shall
be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense,
recoupment or setoff.  Except as
otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder
shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective
Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in
Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 11:00 a.m. on the
date specified herein.  The
Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Applicable
Percentage (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in
like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office.  All payments received by the Administrative
Agent after 11:00 a.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business
Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.  If any payment to be made by the Borrower shall
come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next
following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in
computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

(b)            
Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent.  (i) Unless the Administrative Agent shall
have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Committed
Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans (or, in the case of any Committed Borrowing
of Base Rate Loans, prior to 11:00 a.m. on the date of such Committed
Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent
such Lender’s share of such

 43
 

Committed Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may
assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance
with Section 2.02 (or, in the case of a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate
Loans, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with and at
the time required by Section 2.02) and may, in reliance upon such
assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount.  In such event, if a Lender has not in fact
made its share of the applicable Committed Borrowing available to the
Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally
agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding
amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from
and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but
excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case
of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate
and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking
industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative processing or
similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with
the foregoing,  and (B) in the case of a
payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate
Loans.  If the Borrower and such Lender
shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an
overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the
Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period.  If such Lender pays its share of the applicable
Committed Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall
constitute such Lender’s Committed Loan included in such Committed
Borrowing.  Any payment by the Borrower
shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender
that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

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

A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or
the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall
be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(c)           Failure to Satisfy Conditions
Precedent.  If any Lender makes
available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such
Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and
such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent
because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article
IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the
Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from
such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

 44
 

(d)           Obligations of Lenders Several.  The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to
make Committed Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing
Line Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 10.04(c) are several
and not joint.  The failure of any Lender
to make any Committed Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any
payment under Section 10.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not
relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date,
and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so
make its Committed Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment
under Section 10.04(c).

(e)           Funding Source.  Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate
any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner
or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will
obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

Section
2.13         Sharing of Payments by
Lenders.  If any Lender
shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain
payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of the Committed
Loans made by it, or the participations in L/C Obligations or in Swing Line
Loans held by it resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion
of the aggregate amount of such Committed Loans or participations and accrued
interest thereon greater than its pro  rata share thereof as
provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a)
notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at
face value) participations in the Committed Loans and subparticipations in L/C
Obligations and Swing Line Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other
adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments
shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount
of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Committed Loans and
other amounts owing them, provided that:

(i)            if any such participations or
subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving
rise thereto is recovered, such participations or subparticipations shall be
rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery,
without interest; and

(ii)           the provisions of this Section shall
not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to
and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (y) any payment
obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation
in any of its Committed Loans or subparticipations in L/C Obligations or Swing
Line Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any
Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply).

The Borrower  consents to
the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under
applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the
foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of setoff and
counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were
a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

 45
 

Section 2.14         Increase
in Commitments.  

(a)           Request
for Increase.  Provided
there exists no Default, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall
promptly notify the Lenders), the Borrower may from time to time, request an
increase in the Aggregate Commitments by an amount (for all such requests) not
exceeding $50,000,000; provided that (i) any such request for an
increase shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000, (ii) the Borrower shall
first offer to each existing Lender the right to increase its Commitment, provided,
however, no existing Lender shall be required to increase its
Commitment; (iii) the Borrower shall obtain an increased or additional
Commitment, respectively, from existing Lenders or Eligible Assignees; and (iv)
no increase in the Aggregate Commitments shall increase either the Financial
Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit.  At the time of sending such notice, the
Borrower (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time
period within which each Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no
event be less than ten Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice
to the Lenders).  

(b)           Lender Elections to Increase.  Each Lender shall
notify the Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it
agrees to increase its Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to,
greater than, or less than its Applicable Percentage of such requested
increase.  Any Lender not responding
within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its
Commitment.  

(c)           Notification by Administrative
Agent; Additional Lenders.  The Administrative Agent shall
notify the Borrower and each Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request
made hereunder.  To achieve the full
amount of a requested increase and subject to the approval of the
Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender (which approvals
shall not be unreasonably withheld), the Borrower may also invite additional
Eligible Assignees to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement in form
and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel.

(d)           Effective Date and Allocations.  If the Aggregate
Commitments are increased in accordance with this Section, the Administrative
Agent and the Borrower shall determine the effective date (the “Increase
Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such increase.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the final allocation of such increase
and the Increase Effective Date.  

(e)           Conditions to Effectiveness of
Increase.  As a condition precedent
to such increase, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a
certificate of each Loan Party dated as of the Increase Effective Date (in
sufficient copies for each Lender) signed by a Responsible Officer of such Loan
Party (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party
approving or consenting to such increase, and (ii) in the case of the Borrower,
certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (A) the
representations and warranties contained in Article V and the other Loan
Documents are true and correct on and as of the Increase Effective Date, except
to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an
earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date,
and except that for purposes of this Section 2.14, the representations
and warranties contained in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 5.05
shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements

 46
 

furnished pursuant to clauses (a) and (b),
respectively, of Section 6.01, and (B) no Default exists.  The Borrower shall prepay any Committed Loans
outstanding on the Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts
required pursuant to Section 3.05) to the extent necessary to keep the
outstanding Committed Loans ratable with any revised Applicable Percentages
arising from any nonratable increase in the Commitments under this Section.

(f)            Conflicting Provisions.  This Section shall supersede any provisions
in Section 2.13 or 10.01 to the contrary.

ARTICLE III.

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

Section
3.01         Taxes.  

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

(b)           Payment of Other Taxes by the
Borrower.  Without limiting the
provisions of subsection (a) above, the Borrower shall timely pay any Other
Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

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

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

 47
 

(e)           Status of Lenders.  Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an
exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the
jurisdiction in which the Borrower is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty
to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or
under any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or
reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly
completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will
permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of
withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if
requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other
documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the
Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to
backup withholding or information reporting requirements.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in
the event that the Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States,
any Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
(in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior
to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement
(and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do
so), whichever of the following is applicable:

(i)            duly completed copies of Internal
Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax
treaty to which the United States is a party,

(ii)           duly completed copies of Internal
Revenue Service Form W-8ECI,

(iii)          in the case of a Foreign Lender
claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section
881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is
not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code,
(B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of
section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation”
described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) duly completed copies of
Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or

(iv)          any other form prescribed by
applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United
States Federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary
documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower to
determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(f)            Treatment of Certain Refunds.  If the Administrative Agent, any Lender or
the L/C Issuer determines, in good faith, that it has received a refund of any
Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or
with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this
Section, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only
to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the
Borrower under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving
rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative
Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and without interest
(other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental

 48
 

Authority with respect to such refund), provided
that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or
the L/C Issuer, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any
penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental
Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer in the
event the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer is required to
repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  This subsection shall not be construed to
require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer to make
available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that
it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

Section
3.02         Illegality.  If any Lender determines that any Law has
made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is
unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or
fund Eurodollar Rate Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon
the Eurodollar Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material
restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take
deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by
such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of
such Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate
Committed Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until such Lender
notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances
giving rise to such determination no longer exist.  Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower
shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent),
prepay or, if applicable, convert all Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender to
Base Rate Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if
such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans to
such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain
such Eurodollar Rate Loans.  Upon any such
prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the
amount so prepaid or converted.

Section
3.03         Inability to Determine Rates.  If the Required Lenders determine that for
any reason in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Rate Loan or a
conversion to or continuation thereof that (a) Dollar deposits are not being
offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable
amount and Interest Period of such Eurodollar Rate Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable
means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Base Rate for any requested
Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan , or (c) the
Eurodollar Base Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a
proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost
to such Lenders of funding such Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so
notify the Borrower and each Lender. 
Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar
Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent (upon the
instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice.  Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may
revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of
Eurodollar Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such
request into a request for a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the
amount specified therein.

 49
 

Section
3.04         Increased Costs; Reserves on
Eurodollar Rate Loans. 

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

(i)            impose, modify or deem applicable
any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar
requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit
extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement
contemplated by Section 3.04(e)) or the L/C Issuer; 

(ii)           subject any Lender or the L/C Issuer
to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of
Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit or any Eurodollar Rate Loan
made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or the
L/C Issuer in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes
covered by Section 3.01 and the imposition of, or any change in the rate
of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender or the L/C Issuer); or

(iii)          impose on any Lender or the L/C Issuer
or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting
this Agreement or Eurodollar Rate Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of
Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to
increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Rate
Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase
the cost to such Lender or the L/C Issuer of participating in, issuing or
maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to
participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of
any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the L/C Issuer hereunder
(whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such
Lender or the L/C Issuer, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the L/C
Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, for such
additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b)           Capital Requirements.  If any Lender or the L/C Issuer determines
that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or the L/C Issuer or any Lending
Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company, if
any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing
the rate of return on such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s capital or on the
capital of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, as a
consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made
by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters
of Credit issued by the L/C Issuer, to a level below that which such Lender or
the L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company could have
achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or
the L/C Issuer’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s
holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the
Borrower will pay to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer
or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company for any such reduction
suffered.

(c)           Certificates for Reimbursement.  A certificate of a Lender or the L/C Issuer
setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the
L/C Issuer or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in
subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Borrower shall be
conclusive absent manifest error.  The
Borrower shall pay such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the
amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt
thereof.

 50
 

(d)           Delay in Requests.  Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or
the L/C Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of
this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s
right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not
be required to compensate a Lender or the L/C Issuer pursuant to the foregoing
provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions
suffered more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or the L/C
Issuer, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving
rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the L/C
Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change
in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then
the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of
retroactive effect thereof).

(e)           Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans.  The Borrower shall pay to each Lender, as
long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to
liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits
(currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional interest on the
unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Loan equal to the actual costs
of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such
Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which shall be
due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan,
provided the Borrower shall have received at least 10 days’ prior notice (with
a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest from such
Lender.  If a Lender fails to give notice
10 days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest
shall be due and payable 10 days from receipt of such notice.  

Section
3.05         Compensation for Losses.  Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly compensate
such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense
incurred by it as a result of:

(a)           any continuation, conversion, payment
or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the
last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory,
automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise);

(b)           any failure by the Borrower (for a
reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow,
continue or convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the
amount notified by the Borrower; or

(c)           any assignment of a Eurodollar Rate
Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a
result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 10.13;

including any loss of anticipated profits and any loss
or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it
to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which
such funds were obtained.  The Borrower
shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in
connection with the foregoing.

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the
Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be
deemed to have funded each Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it at the Eurodollar
Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London

 51
 

interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount
and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Rate Loan was in
fact so funded.

Section
3.06         Mitigation Obligations;
Replacement of Lenders. 

(a)           Designation of a Different Lending
Office.  If any Lender requests
compensation under Section 3.04, or the Borrower is required to pay any
additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account
of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice
pursuant to Section 3.02, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts
to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans
hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its
offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such
designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable
pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04, as the case may be, in the
future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.02,
as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any
unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such
Lender.  The Borrower hereby agrees to
pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with
any such designation or assignment.

(b)           Replacement of Lenders.  If any Lender requests compensation under Section
3.04, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any
Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section
3.01, the Borrower may replace such Lender in accordance with Section
10.13.

Section
3.07         Survival.  All of the Borrower’s obligations under this Article
III shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of
all other Obligations hereunder.

ARTICLE IV.

incorporation or organization, (b) has all requisite power and authority and
all requisite governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals to

under the Laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of
properties or the conduct of its business requires such qualification or
license; except in each case referred to in clause (b)(i) or (c), to the extent
that failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

Section
5.02         Authorization; No
Contravention.  The
execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of each Loan Document to
which such Person is party, have been duly authorized by all necessary
corporate or other organizational action, and do not and will not (a)
contravene the terms of any of such Person’s Organization Documents; (b)
conflict with or result in any breach or contravention of, or the creation of
any Lien (other than the creation of a Lien in favor of the Collateral Agent
under the Security Instruments) under, or require any payment to be made under

Document.

Section
5.04         Binding Effect.  This Agreement has been, and each other Loan
Document, when delivered hereunder, will have been, duly executed and delivered

This Agreement constitutes, and each other Loan Document when so

Party, enforceable 

 55
 

against each Loan Party that is party thereto in
accordance with its terms except as such enforceability may be limited by any
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar law
affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity.

Section
5.05         Financial Statements; No
Material Adverse Effect.

(a)           The Audited Financial Statements (i)
were prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the
period covered thereby, except as otherwise expressly noted therein; (ii)
fairly present the financial condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as
of the date thereof and their results of operations for the period covered
thereby in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the period
covered thereby, except as otherwise expressly noted therein; and (iii) show
all material indebtedness and other liabilities, direct or contingent, of the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of the date thereof, including liabilities for
taxes, material commitments and Indebtedness.

sheet of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries dated December 31, 2006, and the
related consolidated statements of income or operations, stockholders’ equity
and cash flows for the fiscal quarter ended on that date (i) were prepared in

the financial condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of the date
thereof and their results of operations for the period covered thereby,
subject, in the case of clauses (i) and (ii), to the absence of footnotes and
to normal year-end audit adjustments.  Schedule
5.05 sets forth all material indebtedness and other liabilities, direct or
contingent, of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of the Closing
Date that are not reflected on such financial statements, including liabilities
for taxes, material commitments and Indebtedness.

(c)           Since the date of the Audited
Financial Statements, there has been no event or circumstance, either
individually or in the aggregate, that has had or could reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section
5.06         Litigation.  There are no actions, suits, proceedings,
claims or disputes pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened or
contemplated, at law, in equity, in arbitration or before any Governmental
Authority, by or against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or against any
of their properties or revenues that (a) purport to affect or pertain to this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any of the transactions contemplated
hereby, or (b)  either individually or in the aggregate,
if determined adversely, could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

Section
5.07         No Default.  Neither any Loan Party nor any Subsidiary
thereof is in default under or with respect to any Contractual Obligation that
could, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have
a Material Adverse Effect.  No Default
has occurred and is continuing or would result from the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

 56
 

Section
5.08         Ownership of Property; Liens.  Each of the Borrower and each Subsidiary has
good record and marketable title in fee simple to, or valid leasehold interests
in, all real property necessary or used in the ordinary conduct of its
business, except for such defects in title as could not, individually or in the
aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  The property of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries is subject to no Liens, other than Liens permitted by Section
7.01.

Section
5.09         Environmental Compliance.  The Borrower and its Subsidiaries conduct in
the ordinary course of business a review of the effect of existing
Environmental Laws and claims alleging potential liability or responsibility
for violation of any Environmental Law on their respective businesses,
operations and properties, and as a result thereof the Borrower has reasonably
concluded that such Environmental Laws and claims could not, individually or in
the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section
5.10         Insurance.  The properties of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries are insured with financially sound and reputable insurance
companies not Affiliates of the Borrower, in such amounts, with such
deductibles and covering such risks as are customarily carried by companies
engaged in similar businesses and owning similar properties in localities where
the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary operates.

Section
5.11         Taxes.  The Borrower and its Subsidiaries have filed
all Federal, state and other material tax returns and reports required to be
filed, and have paid all Federal, state and other material taxes, assessments,
fees and other governmental charges levied or imposed upon them or their
properties, income or assets otherwise due and payable, except those which are
being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted
and for which adequate reserves have been provided in accordance with
GAAP.  Except as set forth on Schedule
5.11, there is no proposed tax assessment against the Borrower or any
Subsidiary that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.  Neither any Loan Party nor any
Subsidiary thereof is party to any tax sharing agreement.

Section
5.12         ERISA Compliance.

(a)           Each Plan is in compliance in all
material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and other
Federal or state Laws.  Each Plan that is
intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable determination
letter from the IRS or an application for such a letter is currently being
processed by the IRS with respect thereto and, to the best knowledge of the
Borrower, nothing has occurred which would prevent, or cause the loss of, such
qualification.  The Borrower and each
ERISA Affiliate have made all required contributions to each Plan subject to
Section 412 of the Code, and no application for a funding waiver or an
extension of any amortization period pursuant to Section 412 of the Code has
been made with respect to any Plan.

(b)           There are no pending or, to the best
knowledge of the Borrower, threatened claims, actions or lawsuits, or action by
any Governmental Authority, with respect to any Plan that could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
There has been no prohibited transaction or violation of the fiduciary
responsibility rules with respect to any Plan that has resulted or could
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

 57
 

(c)           (i) No ERISA Event has occurred or is
reasonably expected to occur; (ii) no Pension Plan has any Unfunded Pension
Liability; (iii) neither the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred, or
reasonably expects to incur, any liability under Title IV of ERISA with respect
to any Pension Plan (other than premiums due and not delinquent under Section

Administrative Agent and the Lenders all agreements, instruments and corporate
or other restrictions to which it or any of its Subsidiaries is subject, and

or other information furnished (whether in writing or orally) by or on behalf
of any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with
the transactions contemplated hereby and the negotiation of this Agreement or
delivered hereunder or under any other Loan Document (in each case, as modified
or supplemented by other information so furnished) contains any material misstatement
of fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading; provided that, with respect to projected financial 

 58
 

information, the Borrower represents only that such
information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be
reasonable at the time.

Section
5.16         Compliance with Laws.  Each Loan Party and each Subsidiary thereof
is in compliance in all material respects with the requirements of all Laws and
all orders, writs, injunctions and decrees applicable to it or to its

and the use of the proceeds thereof, (a) each Loan Party’s assets will exceed
its liabilities and (b) each Loan Party will be solvent, will be able to pay

effective to create (or continue) in favor of the Collateral Agent for the
benefit of Secured Parties, as security for the Obligations, a valid and
perfected first priority Lien on all of the Collateral as of the Closing Date
(subject only to Liens permitted by Section 7.01), securing the

perfect and maintain the perfection and first priority status of such Liens
have been duly made or taken and remain in full force and effect.

Section

in the Collateral described therein, except as otherwise permitted hereunder.

service marks, trade names, copyrights, patents, patent rights, franchises,
licenses and other intellectual property rights (collectively, “IP Rights”)
that are reasonably necessary for the operation of their respective businesses,
without conflict with the rights of any other Person.  To the best knowledge of the Borrower, no
slogan 

 59
 

or other advertising device, product, process, method,
substance, part or other material now employed, or now contemplated to be
employed, by the Borrower or any Subsidiary infringes upon any rights held by
any other Person.  No claim or litigation
regarding any of the foregoing is pending or, to the best knowledge of the
Borrower, threatened, which, either individually or in the aggregate, could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

such Compliance Certificates, the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation
to request the delivery or to maintain copies of the documents referred to

solely responsible for requesting delivery to it or maintaining its copies of
such documents.

The Borrower hereby acknowledges that (a) the
Administrative Agent and/or the Arrangers will make available to the Lenders
and the L/C Issuer materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of the
Borrower hereunder (collectively, “Borrower Materials”) by posting the
Borrower Materials on IntraLinks or another similar electronic system (the “Platform”)
and (b) certain of the Lenders may be “public-side” Lenders (i.e., Lenders that do not wish to receive material non-public
information with respect to the Borrower or its securities) (each, a “Public
Lender”).  The Borrower hereby agrees
that (w) all Borrower Materials that are to be made available to Public Lenders
shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall
mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof;
(x) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC”, the Borrower shall be deemed to
have authorized the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the L/C Issuer and the
Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any material
non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its securities for
purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws (provided, however,
that to the extent such Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall
be treated as set forth in Section 10.07); (y) all Borrower Materials
marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the
Platform designated “Public Investor”; and (z) the Administrative Agent and the
Arrangers shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked
“PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not
designated “Public Investor”. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall be under no obligation
to mark any Borrower Materials “PUBLIC.”

each Subsidiary (other than the Excluded Subsidiaries) to, from time to time,
take such actions and execute and deliver such documents and instruments as the
Administrative Agent shall require to ensure that the Collateral Agent on
behalf of the Secured Parties shall have received currently effective duly
executed Security Instruments pledging and granting security interests or other
Liens acceptable to the Administrative Agent on all of the following assets of
each Loan Party, whether now owned or hereafter acquired: (i) all Equity

foreign corporation” under Section 957 of the Code, to a pledge of 65% of the
voting Equity Interests of each such first-tier foreign subsidiary to the
extent the pledge of any greater percentage would result in material adverse
tax consequences to the Borrower); (ii) all Indebtedness of the Borrower or any
Subsidiary to any Loan Party; (iii) all accounts, all general intangibles
arising out of or related to any such accounts, all chattel paper and
instruments evidencing any obligation to any Loan Party for payment for goods

the request of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower will, and will cause each
Subsidiary (other than the Excluded Subsidiaries) to, from time to time, take
such actions and execute and deliver such documents and instruments as the
Administrative Agent shall require to ensure that the Collateral Agent on
behalf of the Secured Parties receives currently effective duly executed
Security Instruments pledging and granting security interests or other Liens
acceptable to the Administrative Agent on all of the assets of each Loan Party
that are not then included Collateral, whether now owned or hereafter acquired,
and are so requested by the Administrative Agent to be subjected to a Lien to
secure the Obligations.

(b)           Such security interests and Liens
shall be continued or granted, as the case may be, pursuant to (i) in the case
of the properties and assets securing the obligations under the Existing Credit
Agreement on the Closing Date, by the Security Instruments executed by certain
of the Loan Parties in connection with the Existing Credit Agreement, as the
same are to be amended or amended and restated, as applicable, on the Closing
Date pursuant to the amendments, modifications and Security Instruments
specified in Section 4.01(a), (ii) in the case of the properties and
assets of any Subsidiary formed or acquired after the Closing Date, by the

 65
 

delivered on or before the Closing Date by the Loan
Parties and encumbering similar assets or properties or, if no such Security
Instrument is determined by the Administrative Agent to be appropriate,
documentation otherwise reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the
Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent (all of such agreements,
assignments and other conveyances described in this clause (iii), collectively,

(c)           Each of the Security Instruments
(including all Additional Security Instruments) shall (i) constitute valid and
enforceable perfected security interests and mortgages superior to and prior to
the rights of all third Persons and shall be subject to no Liens, and (ii) be
duly recorded or filed (or memoranda or other appropriate record thereof
recorded or filed) in such manner and in such places as are required by law to
establish, perfect, preserve and protect the Liens in favor of the Collateral
Agent required to be granted pursuant thereto and, in each case, all taxes,
fees and other charges payable in connection therewith shall be paid in full by
the Borrower.

(d)           Without limitation of the foregoing,
the Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, at the expense
of the Borrower, make, execute, endorse, acknowledge, file and/or deliver to
the Collateral Agent from time to time such vouchers, invoices, schedules,

of attorney, certificates, reports and other assurances or instruments and take
such further steps relating to the collateral covered by any of the Security
Instruments (including any Additional Security Instruments) as the

within 30 days following, deliver or cause to be delivered to the
Administrative Agent each of the following:

would result to the Borrower);

(ii)           a Security Joinder Agreement duly
executed by such Subsidiary (with all schedules thereto appropriately
completed) (unless such Subsidiary (x) is an Excluded Subsidiary, or (y) a

Borrower);

(iii)          to the extent required to grant the
security interest described in Section 6.12(a)(i), (A) a Pledge Joinder

to the extent such Equity Interest constitutes a security under Article 8 of the
Uniform Commercial Code, (x) the certificates representing such Equity
Interests 

 66

Commercial Code filing offices and in all jurisdictions in which filing is
necessary or advisable to perfect in favor of the Collateral Agent the Liens on
the Collateral conferred under the Security Instruments to the extent such
Liens may be perfected by Uniform Commercial Code filings;

(v)           current copies of the documents of
the types referred to in clauses (iii) and (iv) of Section 4.01(a) with
respect to each such Subsidiary, all certified by the applicable Governmental

form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; and

opinions of counsel to
the applicable Loan Parties and such Subsidiary with respect to the documents
delivered and the transactions contemplated by this Section 6.12(e)
substantially similar in form and substance to the opinion of counsel delivered
on the Closing Date pursuant to Section 4.01(a)(v).

attorneys who may be employees of any Lender or the L/C Issuer) arising under
the Loan Documents, amounts payable under Article III and reimbursement
for amounts paid under Section 10.04(c)), ratably among them in
proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Second
payable to them;

Third, to payment of that portion of
the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid Letter of Credit Fees and
interest on the Loans, L/C Borrowings and other Obligations arising under the
Loan Documents, ratably among the Lenders and the L/C Issuer in proportion to
the respective amounts described in this clause Third payable to them;

Fourth, to payment of that portion
of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans, L/C Borrowings
and Obligations arising under Secured Hedge Agreements and Secured Cash
Management Agreements, ratably among the Lenders, the L/C Issuer, the Hedge
Banks and the Cash Management Banks in proportion to the respective amounts
described in this clause Fourth held by them;

Fifth, to the Administrative Agent
for the account of the L/C Issuer, to Cash Collateralize that portion of L/C

otherwise required by Law.

Subject to Section 2.03(c), amounts used to

the other Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Obligations arising
under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements may, in
the Administrative Agent’s discretion or Collateral Agent’s discretion, as the
case may be, be excluded from the application described above if such Person
has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting
documentation as the such Person may request, from the applicable Cash
Management Bank or Hedge Bank, as the case may be.  Each Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank not a
party to the Credit Agreement who obtains the benefit of the foregoing
provision or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or of the Guaranty or any Security
Instrument shall be deemed to have acknowledged and accepted the appointment of
the Administrative Agent and Collateral 

 77

Section
9.01         Appointment and Authority.  Each of the Lenders (in its capacities as a
Lender, Swing Line Lender (if applicable), potential Hedge Bank and potential
Cash Management Bank) and the L/C Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of
America to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative
Agent and Collateral Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise
such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent
by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are
reasonably incidental thereto.  The
provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative
Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, and neither the
Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third party
beneficiary of any of such provisions.

Section
9.02         Rights as a Lender.  The Person serving as the Administrative
Agent and Collateral Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in
its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as
though it were not the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent and the term “Lender”
or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context
otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent and
Collateral Agent hereunder in its individual capacity.  Such Person and its Affiliates may accept
deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other
advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the
Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were
not the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder and without any duty
to account therefor to the Lenders.

Section
9.03         Exculpatory Provisions.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor the
Collateral Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly
set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents.  Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent:

(a)           shall be subject to any fiduciary or
other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is
continuing;

(b)           shall have any duty to take any
discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary
rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents
that such Person is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required
Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be
expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that
neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be required to
take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose
such Person to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable
law; and

 78
 

(c)           shall, except as expressly set forth
herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall
not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the
Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the
Person serving as the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any of its
Affiliates in any capacity.

Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral
Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the
consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or
percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as such Person shall
believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided
in Sections 10.01 and 8.02) or (ii) in the absence of its own
gross negligence or willful misconduct. 
Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be
deemed to have any knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing
such Default is given to such Person by the Borrower, a Lender or the L/C
Issuer.

Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral
Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into
(i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with
this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any
certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in
connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of
the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or
therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability,
effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any
other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any
condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to
confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Person.

Section
9.04         Reliance by Administrative
Agent and the Collateral Agent.  The Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent
shall each be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for
relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument,
document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or
intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine
and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper
Person.  The Administrative Agent and
Collateral Agent also may each rely upon any statement made to it orally or by
telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall
not incur any liability for relying thereon. 
In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of
a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be
fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, the Administrative
Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the L/C
Issuer unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the
contrary from such Lender or the L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or
the issuance of such Letter of Credit. 
The Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent may each consult with
legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants
and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken
or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel,
accountants or experts.

Section
9.05         Delegation of Duties.  The Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent
may each perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers
hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more
sub-agents appointed by such Person.  The
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and any such sub-agent may perform
any and all 

 79
 

of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or
through their respective Related Parties. 
The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such
sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective
activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided
for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent and the Collateral
Agent.

Section
9.06         Resignation of Administrative
Agent.  The
Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the
Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Borrower. 
Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders
shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a
successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an
Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States.  If no such successor shall have been so
appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment
within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its
resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the
Lenders and the L/C Issuer, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting
the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative
Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has
accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become
effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Administrative
Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under
the other Loan Documents and (2) all payments, communications and determinations
provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be
made by or to each Lender and the L/C Issuer directly, until such time as the
Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above
in this Section.  Upon the acceptance of
a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor
shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges
and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring
Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations
hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged
therefrom as provided above in this Section). 
The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent
shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed
between the Borrower and such successor. 
After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and
under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section
10.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring
Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in
respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the
retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

Any resignation by Bank of America as Administrative
Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as
Collateral Agent, L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender.  Upon the acceptance of a successor’s
appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed
to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of
the retiring Collateral Agent, L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender, (b) the
retiring Collateral Agent, L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender shall be discharged
from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the
other Loan Documents, except, in the case of the Collateral Agent, the
execution of assignment agreements or other documents reasonably necessary to
assign the Liens of the retiring Collateral Agent under the Security
Instruments to its successor, and (c) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue
letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding
at the time of such succession or make other arrangements 

 80
 

satisfactory to the retiring L/C Issuer to effectively
assume the obligations of the retiring L/C Issuer with respect to such Letters
of Credit.

Section
9.07         Non-Reliance on
Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and Other Lenders.  Each Lender and the L/C Issuer acknowledges
that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent,
the Collateral Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and
based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its
own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement.  Each Lender and the L/C Issuer also
acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Lender or any of their
Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from
time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or
not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document
or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Section
9.08         No Other Duties, Etc.  Anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, none of the Book Managers, Arrangers, Documentation Agents or Syndication
Agents listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or
responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents,
except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent, a Lender or the L/C Issuer hereunder.

Section
9.09         Administrative Agent May File
Proofs of Claim.  In
case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other
judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent
(irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then
be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and
irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on
the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such
proceeding or otherwise

(a)           to file and prove a claim for the
whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the
Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and
to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have
the claims of the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent
(including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements
and advances of the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent and
their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the
L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.03(i) and (j),
2.09 and 10.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b)           to collect and receive any monies or
other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the
same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee,
liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding
is hereby authorized by each Lender and the L/C Issuer to make such payments to
the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall
consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the L/C
Issuer, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent
and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent
under Sections 2.09 and 10.04.

 81
 

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize
the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on
behalf of any Lender or the L/C Issuer any plan of reorganization, arrangement,
adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender
or the L/C Issuer to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of
the claim of any Lender or the L/C Issuer in any such proceeding.

Section
9.10         Collateral and Guaranty
Matters.  Each of the
Lenders (in its capacities as a Lender, Swing Line Lender (if applicable),
potential Hedge Bank and potential Cash Management Bank) and the L/C Issuer
irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as
applicable, at its option and in its discretion,

(a)           to release any Lien on any property
granted to or held by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent under any
Loan Document (i) upon termination of the Aggregate Commitments and payment in
full of all Obligations (other than (x) contingent indemnification obligations
and (y) obligations and liabilities under Secured Cash Management Agreements
and Secured Hedge Agreements as to which arrangements satisfactory to the
applicable Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank shall have been made) and the
expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than Letters of
Credit as to which other arrangements with respect thereto satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer shall have been made), (ii) that is
sold or to be sold as part of or in connection with any sale permitted
hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or (iii) subject to Section
10.01, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required
Lenders;

(b)           to subordinate any Lien on any
property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent
under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is
permitted by Section 7.01(i); and

(c)           to release any Guarantor from its
obligations under the Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a
result of a transaction permitted hereunder.

Upon request by the Administrative Agent or Collateral
Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing such Person’s
authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items
of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the
Guaranty pursuant to this Section 9.10.

Section
9.11         Secured Cash Management
Agreements and Secured Hedging Agreements. 
No Cash
Management Bank or Hedge Bank who obtains the benefit of the provisions of Section
8.03, the Guaranty or any Collateral by virtue of the
provisions hereof or of the
Guaranty or any Security
Instrument shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to,
direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or
otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of
any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only
to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article
IX to the contrary, the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall
only be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory
arrangement have been made with respect to, Obligations arising under Secured Cash
Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements to the extent such Person
has received written notice of such Obligations, together with such supporting

 84
 

(including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites)
pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent,  provided that the foregoing shall not
apply to notices to any Lender or the L/C Issuer pursuant to Article II
if such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as applicable, has notified the

Issuer or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses
of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the
Borrower’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials
through the Internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by
a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence
or willful misconduct of such Agent Party; provided, however,
that in no event shall any Agent Party have any liability to the Borrower, any
Lender, the L/C Issuer or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental,
consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages).

notices and other communications may be sent and (ii) accurate wire
instructions for such Lender.

(e)           Reliance by Administrative Agent,
the Collateral Agent, L/C Issuer and Lenders.  The Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and
act upon any notices (including telephonic Committed Loan Notices and Swing
Line Loan Notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if
(i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or
were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or
(ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any
confirmation thereof.  The Borrower shall
indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the L/C Issuer, each
Lender and the Related Parties of each of them from all losses, costs, expenses

Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any
such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder
shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of
any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or
privilege.  The rights, remedies, powers
and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights,
remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

Section
10.04       Expenses; Indemnity; Damage

Issuer in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any
Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral
Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer (including the fees, charges and
disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Collateral
Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer), and shall pay all fees and time charges
for attorneys who may be employees of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral
Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer, in connection with the enforcement or
protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or (B) in connection
with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such
out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or
negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.

 86
 

(b)           Indemnification by the Borrower.  The Borrower shall indemnify the
Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), the Collateral Agent (and any
sub-agent thereof), each Lender and the L/C Issuer, and each Related Party of
any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”)
against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims,
damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and
disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), and shall indemnify and hold
harmless each Indemnitee from all fees and time charges and disbursements for
attorneys who may be employees of any Indemnitee, incurred by any Indemnitee or
asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Borrower or any
other Loan Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the
execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any
agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the
parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder, the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or, in the case
of the Administrative agent  and
Collateral Agent (and any sub-agents thereof) and their Related Parties only,
the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) any
Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom
(including any refusal by the L/C Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a
Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do
not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual
or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property
owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any
Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation,
investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on
contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the
Borrower or any other Loan Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a
party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any
Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a
claim brought by the Borrower or any other Loan Party against an Indemnitee for
breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any
other Loan Document, if the Borrower or such Loan Party has obtained a final
and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court
of competent jurisdiction.

(c)           Reimbursement by Lenders.  To the extent that the Borrower for any
reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or
(b) of this Section to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any
sub-agent thereof), the Collateral Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the L/C
Issuer or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees
to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Collateral
Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the L/C Issuer or such Related Party, as the
case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time
that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of
such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or
indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may
be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such
sub-agent), the Collateral Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), or the L/C Issuer
in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing
acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Collateral Agent
(or any sub-agent thereof), or L/C Issuer in connection with such
capacity.  The 

 87
 

obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (c)
are subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(d).

(d)           Waiver of Consequential Damages,
Etc.  To the fullest extent permitted
by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim
against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect,
consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages)
arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any
other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or
the use of the proceeds thereof.  No
Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages
arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other
materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee  through telecommunications, electronic or other
information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than
for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence of willful
misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable
judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(e)           Payments.  All amounts due under this Section shall be
payable not later than ten Business Days after demand therefor.

(f)            Survival.  The agreements in this Section shall survive
the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the L/C
Issuer and the Swing Line Lender, the replacement of any Lender, the
termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or
discharge of all the other Obligations.

Section
10.05       Payments Set Aside.  To the extent that any
payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent,
the Collateral Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender, or the Administrative
Agent, the Collateral Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender exercises its right
of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof
is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set
aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the L/C Issuer or such Lender in
its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in
connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then
(a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally
intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and
effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred,
and (b) each Lender and the L/C Issuer severally agrees to pay to the
Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, upon demand its
applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or
repaid by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, plus
interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made
at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in
effect.  The obligations of the Lenders and
the L/C Issuer under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the
payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

 88
 

Section
10.06       Successors and Assigns.

(a)           Successors and Assigns Generally.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower
may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder
without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender
and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations
hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of
subsection (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with
the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section, (iii) by way of pledge or
assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f)
of this Section, or (iv) to an SPC in accordance with the provisions of
subsection (h) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer
by any party hereto shall be null and void). 
Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to
confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective
successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in
subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated
hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer
and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by
reason of this Agreement.

(b)           Assignments by Lenders.  Any Lender may at any time assign to one or
more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans
(including for purposes of this subsection (b), participations in L/C
Obligations and in Swing Line Loans) at the time owing to it); provided
that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i)            Minimum Amounts.

(A)          in the case of an assignment of the
entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at
the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an affiliate
of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(B)           in any case not described in
subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment
(which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the
Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the
Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of
the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is
delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the
Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than
$5,000,000 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each
such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however,
that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent
assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single assignee (or to an
assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single
assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been
met.

 89
 

(ii)           Proportionate Amounts.  Each partial assignment shall be made as an
assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and
obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment
assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not apply to the Swing Line Lender’s
rights and obligations in respect of Swing Line Loans.

(iii)          Required Consents.  No consent shall be required for any
assignment except to the extent required by subsection (b)(i)(B) of this
Section and, in addition:

(A)          the consent of the Borrower (such
consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless
(1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such
assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or
an Approved Fund;

(B)           the consent of the Administrative
Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required
if such assignment is to be a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such
Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender;

(C)           the consent of the L/C Issuer (such
consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any
assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in
exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding);
and

(D)          the consent of the Swing Line Lender
(such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for
any assignment.

(iv)          Assignment and Assumption.  The parties to each assignment shall execute
and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together
with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided,
however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion,
elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any
assignment.  The assignee, if it is not a
Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative
Questionnaire.

(v)           No Assignment to Borrower.  No such assignment shall be made to the
Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries.

(vi)          No Assignment to Natural Persons.  No such assignment shall be made to a natural
person.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the
Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after
the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee
thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the
interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and
obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender
thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and
Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the
case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s
rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a
party 

 90
 

hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the
benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, and 10.04
with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date
of such assignment.  Upon request, the
Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee
Lender.  Any assignment or transfer by a
Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with
this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by
such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance
with subsection (d) of this Section.

(c)           Register.  The Administrative Agent, acting solely for
this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative
Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a
register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the
Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans and L/C Obligations owing
to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).
 The entries in the Register shall be
conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may
treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms
hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement,
notwithstanding notice to the contrary. 
The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any
Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior
notice.

(d)           Participations.  Any Lender may at any time, without the
consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell
participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Borrower or
any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”)
in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this
Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans
(including such Lender’s participations in L/C Obligations and/or Swing Line
Loans) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under
this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely
responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations
and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C
Issuer shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in
connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender
sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole
right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or
waiver of any  provision of this
Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that
such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any
amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section
10.01 that affects such Participant. 
Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each
Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04
and 3.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its
interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section.  To the extent permitted by law, each
Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as
though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject
to Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender.

(e)           Limitations upon Participant
Rights.  A Participant shall not be
entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.04
than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to
the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the
participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written
consent.  A 

 91
 

Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were
a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01 unless
the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such
Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section
3.01(e) as though it were a Lender.

(f)            Certain Pledges.  Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a
security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement
(including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender,
including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve
Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such
Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or
assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(g)           Electronic Execution of
Assignments.  The words “execution,” “signed,”
“signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be
deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic
form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or
enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based
recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in
any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and
National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records
Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic
Transactions Act.

(h)           Special Purpose Funding Vehicles.  Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may
grant to a special purpose funding vehicle identified as such in writing from
time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower (an “SPC”) the option to provide all or any part of any
Committed Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make
pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall
constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Committed Loan, and (ii) if an
SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any
part of such Committed Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make
such Committed Loan pursuant to the terms hereof or, if it fails to do so, to
make such payment to the Administrative Agent as is required under Section
2.12(b)(ii).  Each party hereto
hereby agrees that (i) neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC
of such option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or
change the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement (including its
obligations under Section 3.04), (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any
indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender
would be liable, and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes,
including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any
provision of any Loan Document, remain the lender of record hereunder.  The making of a Committed Loan by an SPC
hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same
extent, and as if, such Committed Loan were made by such Granting Lender.  In furtherance of the foregoing, each party
hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this
Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the
payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior debt of any
SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting
against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, or
liquidation proceeding under the laws of the United States or any State
thereof.  Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior
consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and with the payment of a
processing fee in the amount 

 92
 

of $3,500 (which processing fee may be waived by the
Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), assign all or any portion of its
right to receive payment with respect to any Committed Loan to the Granting
Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information
relating to its funding of Committed Loans to any rating agency, commercial
paper dealer or provider of any surety or Guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement
to such SPC.

(i)            Resignation as L/C Issuer or
Swing Line Lender after Assignment. 
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any
time Bank of America assigns all of its Commitment and Loans pursuant to
subsection (b) above, Bank of America may, (i) upon 30 days’ notice to the
Borrower and the Lenders, resign as L/C Issuer and/or (ii) upon 30 days’ notice
to the Borrower, resign as Swing Line Lender. 
In the event of any such resignation as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender,
the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor
L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder; provided, however,
that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the
resignation of Bank of America as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case
may be.  If Bank of America resigns as
L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of
the L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as
of the effective date of its resignation as L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations
with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base
Rate Committed Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts
pursuant to Section 2.03(c)).  If
Bank of America resigns as Swing Line Lender, it shall retain all the rights of
the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Line Loans
made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation,
including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Committed Loans or
fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans pursuant to Section
2.04(c). Upon the appointment of a successor L/C Issuer and/or Swing Line
Lender, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the
rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer or Swing Line
Lender, as the case may be, and (b) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue
letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any,
outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements
satisfactory to Bank of America to effectively assume the obligations of Bank
of America with respect to such Letters of Credit.

Section
10.07       Treatment of Certain
Information; Confidentiality. 
Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer agrees
to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except
that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its
Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents,
advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such
disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such
Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent
requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it
(including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of
Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or
regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party
hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under
any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement
or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or
thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the
same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any
prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations
under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its
advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction 

 93
 

relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with
the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes
publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y)
becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the L/C Issuer or
any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source
other than the Borrower.  In the event
any Lender is required to disclose any confidential Information pursuant to
clause (c) of the immediately preceding sentence, such Lender shall, to the
extent permitted by law, give prompt written notice of that fact to the Borrower
and cooperate as reasonably requested by the Borrower (at the Borrower’s sole
cost and expense) so that the Borrower may seek appropriate remedy to limit or
prevent such disclosure.

For purposes of this Section, “Information”
means all information received from the Borrower or any Subsidiary relating to
the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other
than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any
Lender or the L/C Issuer on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the
Borrower or any Subsidiary, provided that, in the case of information
received from the Borrower or any Subsidiary after the date hereof, such
information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential.  Any Person required to maintain the
confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered
to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the
same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such
Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the
L/C Issuer acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material
non-public information concerning the Borrower or a Subsidiary, as the case may
be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material
non-public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public
information in accordance with applicable Law, including Federal and state
securities Laws.

Section
10.08       Right of Setoff.  If an Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing, each Lender, the L/C Issuer and each of their respective
Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all
deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever
currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any
time owing by such Lender, the L/C Issuer or any such Affiliate to or for the
credit or the account of the Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and
all of the obligations of the Borrower or such Loan Party now or hereafter
existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or the
L/C Issuer, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or the L/C Issuer shall
have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and
although such obligations of the Borrower or such Loan Party may be contingent
or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or the L/C Issuer
different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such
indebtedness.  The rights of each Lender,
the L/C Issuer and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition
to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such
Lender, the L/C Issuer or their respective Affiliates may have.  Each Lender and the L/C Issuer agrees to
notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff
and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not
affect the validity of such setoff and application.

 94
 

Section
10.09       Interest Rate Limitation.  Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be
paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious
interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”).  If the Administrative Agent or any Lender
shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess
interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such
unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. 
In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received
by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person
may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment
that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b)
exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize,
prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of
interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

Section
10.10       Counterparts; Integration;
Effectiveness.  This
Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be executed in counterparts (and by
different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall
constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a
single contract.  This Agreement and the
other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating
to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and
understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.  Except as provided in Section 4.01,
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall become effective when they
shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the
Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken
together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a
signature page of this Agreement and any other Loan Document by telecopy shall
be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents.

Section
10.11       Survival of Representations
and Warranties.  All
representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or
other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith
or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof.  Such representations and warranties have been
or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and
each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent,
the Collateral Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that
the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender may have had
notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and
shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other
Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit
shall remain outstanding.

Section
10.12       Severability.  If any provision of this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or
unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining
provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected
or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith
negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with
valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to
that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions.  The invalidity of a provision in a particular
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any
other jurisdiction.

Section
10.13       Replacement of Lenders.  If any Lender requests compensation under Section
3.04, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any
Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section
3.01, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at
its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative
Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in
accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents
required by, Section 10.06), all of its interests, rights and
obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee
that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a
Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

(a)           the Borrower shall have paid to the
Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 10.06(b);

(b)           such Lender shall have received
payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and L/C
Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable
to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under
Section 3.05) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding
principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all
other amounts);

(c)           in the case of any such assignment
resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.04 or payments
required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01, such assignment will
result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and

(d)           such assignment does not conflict
with applicable Laws.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such
assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such
Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such
assignment and delegation cease to apply.

Section
10.14       Governing Law; Jurisdiction;
Etc.

TAX MATTERS

We are currently under
examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for fiscal years 1997 through
2004.  During the third quarter of fiscal
2006, we received a 30-day letter from IRS related to fiscal years 1997 through
2001.  We are protesting the position on
the letter and expect these issues to go to IRS appeals.  One major issue raised by the IRS relates to
the research and experimentation (R&E) credits that we claimed during the
years under examination.  The amount of
credits recognized for financial statement purposes represents the amount that
we estimate will be ultimately realizable. 
Should the IRS determine that the amount of R&E credits to which we
are entitled is more or less than the amount recognized, we will recognize an
adjustment to the income tax accounts in the period in which the determination
is made.  This may have a material
adverse effect on our financial results but no material impact on our
liquidity.
