            Section 2. LETTERS OF CREDIT.
<PAGE>
                                                                               9

            2.01. General.

            Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower
may request the issuance of Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars or an
Alternative Currency in support of its obligations by delivering a Letter of
Credit Application, at any time and from time to time during the Availability
Period and, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and any other
legal or regulatory requirements applicable to the Bank, the Bank shall issue
such Letters of Credit; provided that no Letter of Credit shall be issued if
after giving effect to such issuance (i) the aggregate LC Exposure would exceed
the Commitments and (ii) the aggregate LC Exposure in respect of Letters of
Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency would exceed $12,000,000. For
purposes of determining compliance with this Section 2.01, the LC Exposure for
each Alternative Currency Letter of Credit shall be at the time of issuance
thereof the amount equal to 110% of the Dollar Equivalent of the face amount of
such Alternative Currency Letter of Credit. In the event of any inconsistency
between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions
of any Letter of Credit Application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower
to, or entered into by the Borrower with, the Bank relating to any Letter of
Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.

            2.02. Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain
Conditions.

            To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment,
renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall
deliver (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so
have been approved by the Bank) to the Bank two (2) Business Days in advance of
the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a Letter of
Credit Application requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or a notice
identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and
specifying the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension
(which shall be a Business Day), of the date on which such Letter of Credit is
to expire (which shall comply with Section 2.03), the face amount of such Letter
of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof, a description of the
transaction to be supported by such Letter of Credit and such other information
(collectively, the "Instructions") as shall be necessary to prepare, amend,
renew or extend such Letter of Credit. Absent manifest error, the Bank's records
of the content of any Instruction shall be conclusive. A Letter of Credit shall
be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment,
renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to
represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment,
renewal or extension, the aggregate LC Exposure shall not exceed any of the
limits specified in the proviso in Section 2.01 and the conditions specified in
Section 4.02, as applicable, are satisfied. Promptly after issuing any Letter of
Credit, the Bank will provide the Borrower with a copy thereof. Each request for
an issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit shall be
irrevocable unless modified or rescinded by the Borrower prior to 10:00 a.m.
(New York City time) on the proposed date of issuance, amendment, renewal or
extension specified in the Borrower's request.

            2.03. Expiration Date.
<PAGE>
                                                                              10

            (a) Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of
business on the earlier of (i) the date one year after the date of the issuance
of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof,
one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date that is five
Business Days prior to the Maturity Date; provided that any Letter of Credit
with a one-year term may provide for an annual renewal if such renewal is
consented to by the Bank and all conditions precedent specified in Section 4 are
met at the time of such renewal.

            (b) If the Maturity Date occurs prior to the expiration of any
Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit shall be replaced and returned to the
Bank undrawn and marked "cancelled" on or prior to the Maturity Date.

            2.04. Transfer of Existing Letters of Credit. Each party hereto
agrees that, on and at all times after the Plan Effective Date, each of the
Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be a Letter of Credit issued
pursuant hereto by the Bank for the account of the Borrower for all purposes
hereunder and under the other Credit Documents; provided that nothing in this
Section 2.04 shall extend, modify or otherwise affect the existing expiration
date of any such Existing Letter of Credit.

            2.05. Reimbursement.

            (a) If the Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a
Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse the Bank for such LC Disbursement
by paying directly to the Bank in immediately available funds an amount in
Dollars, equal to such LC Disbursement or, in the case of an LC Disbursement in
respect of an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, in the Dollar Equivalent
thereof, plus any taxes, fees, charges or other costs or expenses incurred by
the Bank in connection with such payment which are obligations of the Borrower
hereunder (the amounts described in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b) in respect
of any drawing, collectively, the "Payment Amount") on (i) the Business Day on
which the Borrower receives notice from the Bank of an LC Disbursement, if such
notice is received on such Business Day prior to 10:00 A.M., New York City time,
or (ii) if clause (i) above does not apply, the Business Day immediately
following the day on which the Borrower receives such notice. Each such payment
shall be made to the Bank at the Payment Office. Interest shall be payable on
each Payment Amount from the date of the applicable drawing until the Business
Day next succeeding the date of the relevant notice at the Federal Funds
Effective Rate and, thereafter until payment in full of the Payment Amount, at
the rate set forth in Section 2.11.

            (b) Unless the Borrower has reimbursed the Bank in accordance with
clause (a) above or otherwise advised the Bank in writing, prior to 3:00 P.M,
New York City time on the date that any Reimbursement Obligation is due, that
the Borrower will satisfy such Reimbursement Obligation by making a payment to
the Bank prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) of the next Business Day in
accordance with Section 2.05(a) above, the Borrower authorizes the Bank upon any
drawing under any Letter of Credit, and the Bank is hereby authorized and
directed, without notice to any Person, to withdraw Collateral from the Cash
Collateral Account in an amount equal to such Reimbursement Obligation in
satisfaction thereof
<PAGE>
                                                                              11

(with any losses upon liquidation of any investments required to make such
transfer being for the account of the Borrower).

            2.06. Obligations Absolute; Limitation of Liability.

            (a) The Borrower's obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements, and
the Bank's rights to apply Collateral to such Obligations, as provided in
Section 2.05 and in the Cash Collateral Agreement shall be absolute,
unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement and the Cash Collateral Agreement under any and
all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or
enforceability of any Letter of Credit, this Agreement or the Cash Collateral
Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document
presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid
in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any
respect, (iii) payment by the Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation
of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter
of Credit, (iv) payment against presentation of any Drawing Document which is
signed, issued or presented by a Person (or a transferee of such Person)
purporting to be a successor or transferee of the beneficiary of the Letter of
Credit; (v) the Bank or any of its branches or affiliates being the beneficiary
of the Letter of Credit; (vi) the Bank or any correspondent honoring a drawing
against a Drawing Document up to the amount available under the Letter of Credit
even if such Drawing Document claims an amount in excess of the amount available
under the Letter of Credit; (vii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense
or other right that the Borrower or any other Person may have at any time
against any beneficiary, any assignee of proceeds, the Bank or any other Person;
(viii) the Bank or any correspondent having previously paid against fraudulently
signed or presented Drawing Documents (whether or not the Borrower reimbursed
the Bank for such drawing); or (ix) any other event or circumstance whatsoever,
whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the
provisions of this Section 2.06, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of,
or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower's obligations hereunder.

            (b) Neither the Bank nor any of its Affiliates, shall have any
liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or
transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment
thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in clause (a)
above), or for any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission
or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any
Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder),
any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from
causes beyond the control of the Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be
construed to excuse the Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any
direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which
are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law)
suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the Bank's failure to exercise care
when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of
Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that,
in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Bank
(as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Bank shall be
deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the
foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that,
with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in
substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Bank may, in
its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without
responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or
information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon
<PAGE>
                                                                              12

such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of
such Letter of Credit.

            (c) Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, the
Bank: (i) may (but shall not be obligated to) honor a presentation under a
Letter of Credit which on its face substantially complies with the terms of the
Letter of Credit; (ii) may honor a presentation of any Drawing Documents which
appear on their face to have been signed, presented or issued (X) by any
purported successor or transferee of any beneficiary or other party required to
sign, present or issue the Drawing Documents or (Y) under a new name of the
beneficiary; (iii) shall not be responsible for the identity or authority of any
presenter or signer of any Drawing Document or the form, accuracy, genuineness,
or legal effect of any presentation under any Letter of Credit or of any Drawing
Documents; (iv) may (but shall not be obligated to) disregard any
non-documentary conditions stated in any Letter of Credit; (v) may act upon any
Instruction which it, in Good Faith believes to have been given by a Person or
entity authorized to give such Instruction; (vi) shall not be responsible for
any errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of
any message, advice or document, (regardless of how sent or transmitted) or for
errors in interpretation of technical terms or in translation; (vii) shall not
be responsible for any acts, omissions or fraud by, or the solvency of, any
beneficiary, any nominated Person or any other Person; (viii) may assert or
waive any provision of the UCP or ISP which primarily benefits an issuing bank
of a letter of credit, including, any requirement that any Drawing Document be
presented to it at a particular hour or place; (ix) may pay any paying or
negotiating bank (designated or permitted by the terms of any Letter of Credit)
claiming that it rightfully honored or is entitled to reimbursement or indemnity
under the Standard Letter of Credit Practice applicable to it; and (x) may act
or not act as required or permitted under Standard Letter of Credit Practice
applicable to it where it has issued, confirmed, advised or negotiated the
Letter of Credit, as the case may be.

            (d) The Borrower shall notify the Bank of (i) any noncompliance with
any Instruction, any other irregularity with respect to the text of the Letter
of Credit or any amendment thereto or any claim of an unauthorized, fraudulent
or otherwise improper Instruction, within one (1) Business Day prior to the
issuance or amendment of any Letter of Credit and (ii) subject to the
limitations of liability of the Bank in Section 5-109 of the UCC, any objection
the Borrower may have to the Bank's honor or dishonor of any presentation under
the Letter of Credit or any other action or inaction taken or proposed to be
taken by the Bank under or in connection with this Agreement or any Letter of
Credit, within three (3) Business Days after the Borrower receives notice of the
objectionable action or inaction. The failure to so notify the Bank within said
times shall discharge the Bank from any loss or liability that the Bank could
have avoided or mitigated had it received such notice, to the extent that the
Bank could be held liable for damages hereunder; provided that, if the Borrower
shall not provide such notice to the Bank within three (3) Business Days of the
date of receipt in the case of clause (i) or ten (10) Business Days from the
date of receipt of clause (ii), then the Bank shall have no liability whatsoever
for such noncompliance, irregularity, action or inaction and the Borrower shall
be precluded from raising such noncompliance, irregularity or objection as a
defense or claim against the Bank. The Borrower's acceptance or retention of any
Drawing Documents presented under or in connection with a Letter of Credit
(whether or not the document is genuine) shall ratify the Bank's honor of the
presentation and preclude the Borrower from raising
<PAGE>
                                                                              13

a defense, set-off or claim with respect to the Bank's honor of the Letter of
Credit. The Bank shall not be required to seek any waiver of discrepancies from
the Borrower or to grant any waiver of discrepancies that the Borrower approves
or Instructions.

            2.07. Practices.

            Letters of Credit shall be subject to the ISP, or, if specified in
Part I of the Letter of Credit Application, the UCP.

            2.08. Disbursement Procedures.

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

            2.09. Termination and Reduction of Commitment.

            (a) Unless previously terminated, the Commitment shall terminate on
the Maturity Date.

            (b) The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time
reduce, the Commitment; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitment shall
be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than
$5,000,000 and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Commitment if
the then current LC Exposure or any of the sublimits set forth in Section 2.01
would exceed the Commitment.

            (c) The Borrower shall notify the Bank of any election to terminate
or reduce the Commitment under paragraph (b) of this Section 2.09 at least three
Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction,
specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Each notice delivered
by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.09 shall be irrevocable. Any
termination or reduction of the Commitment shall be permanent.

            2.10. Fees.

            (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Bank a facility fee, which
shall accrue at the rate of 0.05% per annum on the daily amount of the
Commitment (whether used or unused) during the period from and including the
date hereof to but excluding the date on which the Obligations are paid in full.
Accrued facility fees shall be payable in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date
and on the date on which the Commitment terminates, commencing on the first such
date to occur after the date hereof; provided that any facility fees accruing
after the date on which the Commitment terminates shall be payable on demand.
All facility fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall
be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but
excluding the last day).

                                                                              14

            (b) The Borrower shall pay to the Bank a fee for the issuance,
renewal, extension or amendment of a Letter of Credit in an amount equal to
0.25% or, in the case of a Letter of Credit issued, renewed, extended or amended
at any time after June 30, 2006, 0.30% of the face amount of such Letter of
Credit, to be paid upon the date of issuance, renewal, extension or amendment of
each Letter of Credit.

            (c) On or before the Closing Date, the Borrower shall pay to the
Bank an amendment fee of $25,000.

            (d) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in
immediately available funds, to the Bank. Fees paid shall not be refundable
under any circumstances.

            2.11. Default Rate of Interest.

            If any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not
paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such
overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate
per annum equal to 2% plus the Federal Funds Effective Rate.

            2.12. Increased Costs.

            (a) If any Change in Law shall:

            (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit
      or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account
      of, or credit extended by the Bank; or

            (ii) impose on the Bank any other condition affecting this Agreement
      or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to the Bank
of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any
sum received or receivable by the Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest
or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to the Bank such additional amount or
amounts as will compensate the Bank for such additional costs incurred or
reduction suffered.

            (b) If the Bank shall determine that any Change in Law regarding
capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return
on the Bank's capital or on the capital of the Bank's holding company as a
consequence of this Agreement or the Letters of Credit issued by the Bank, to a
level below that which the Bank or the Bank's holding company could have
achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration the Bank's
policies and the policies of the Bank's holding company with respect to capital
adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to the Bank, such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Bank or the Bank's holding
company for any such reduction suffered.

            (c) A certificate of the Bank setting forth the amount or amounts
necessary to compensate the Bank or its holding company as specified in
paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.12 shall be delivered to the Borrower and
shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The
<PAGE>
                                                                              15

Borrower shall pay the Bank the amount shown as due on any such certificate
within 20 days after receipt thereof.

            (d) Failure or delay on the part of the Bank to demand compensation
pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall not constitute a waiver of the Bank's right
to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to
compensate the Bank pursuant to this Section 2.12 for any increased costs or
reductions incurred more than 270 days prior to the date that the Bank notifies
the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or
reductions and of the Bank's intention to claim compensation therefor; provided
further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or
reductions is retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be
extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

            2.13. Taxes.

            (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the
Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrower shall be
required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then
(i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all
required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable
under this Section 2.13) the Bank receives an amount equal to the sum it would
have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make
such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the
relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

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

            (c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Bank within 10 days after
written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other
Taxes paid by the Bank on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any
obligation of the Borrower hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes
imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section
2.13) 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 the Bank shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

            (d) 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 Bank 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
Bank.

            (e) If the Bank determines, in its sole discretion, 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 2.13, it shall pay

                                                                              16

over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments
made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.13 with
respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all
out-of-pocket expenses of the Bank and without interest (other than any interest
paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund);
provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Bank, 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 Bank in the event the
Bank is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This
Section shall not be construed to require the Bank to make available its Tax
returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems
confidential) to the Borrower or any other person.

            2.14. Payments Generally; Treatment.

            (a) The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it
hereunder (whether of, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of any
other amounts payable hereunder, or otherwise) in immediately available funds,
without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after 12:00 noon, New York
City time on any date may, in the discretion of the Bank, be deemed to have been
received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating
interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Bank at its offices at
the Payment Office. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a
Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding
Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest
thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments
hereunder shall be made in Dollars.

            (b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available
to the Bank to pay fully the aggregate amount of unreimbursed LC Disbursements
plus interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i)
first, towards payment of interest and fees, and (ii) second, towards payment of
unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder.

            (c) Subject to the provision of Section 8, upon the maturity
(whether by acceleration or otherwise) of any of the Obligations under this
Agreement or any Credit Document, the Bank shall be entitled to immediate cash
payment of such Obligations.

            Section 3. COLLATERAL.

            3.01. Cash Collateral.

            To secure the prompt payment and performance to the Bank of the
Obligations of the Borrower under the Letters of Credit, the Borrower has
simultaneously herewith entered into the Cash Collateral Agreement pursuant to
which the Borrower grants to the Bank a continuing first priority security
interest, senior to all other Liens, if any, in the Collateral. Collateral held
in the Cash Collateral Account shall not be available for use by the Borrower or
any of its subsidiaries or Affiliates for any purpose.

            3.02. Currency Exchange Rate Fluctuations.

            (a) In the event that at any time the Borrower determines that by
reason of currency exchange rates any aggregate or individual limits or
sublimits set forth in Section 2.01
<PAGE>
                                                                              17

have been breached, in each case, by more than 5%, the Borrower shall
immediately notify the Bank (which notice shall promptly be confirmed in
writing). Nothing herein shall obligate the Borrower to monitor currency
exchange rates so as to make such determination but shall comply with this
Section 3.02 and Section 4 of the Cash Collateral Agreement if, nonetheless, any
such determination has been made.

            (b) The Bank will calculate the LC Exposure (including any portion
made in any Alternative Currency) and in any event on each date of receipt of a
Letter of Credit Application or request to amend, renew or extend an outstanding
Letter of Credit and otherwise not less frequently than once each calendar
month.

            In the event that on any date the Bank calculates that by reason of
currency exchange rates any limits set forth in the proviso in Section 2.01 have
been breached, in each case, by more than 5%, the Bank shall give notice to such
effect to the Borrower.

            Section 4. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT.

            (a) the Borrower shall (i) default, and such default shall continue
for one or more Business Days, in the payment of any Reimbursement Obligation in

deemed made; or

            (c) the Borrower shall default in the due performance or observance
by it of any term, covenant or agreement contained in (i) this Agreement or the
Cash Collateral Agreement and such default shall continue unremedied for a
period of 30 days or (ii) Section 6.04(a), Section 7 or Section 4 of the Cash

            (d) any material provision of any Credit Document shall, for any
reason, cease to be valid and binding on the Borrower; or

            (e) the Confirmation Order is stayed, reversed, vacated or otherwise
modified after the date hereof in any manner that could reasonably be expected
to materially and adversely affect the Borrower's ability to perform its
obligations under the Credit Documents; or

            (f) (i) the Borrower shall commence any case, proceeding or other
action (A) under any existing or future law of any jurisdiction, domestic or
foreign, relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or relief of
debtors, seeking to have an order for relief entered with respect to it, or

arrangement, adjustment, winding-up, liquidation, dissolution, composition or
other relief with respect to it or its debts, or (B) seeking appointment of a
receiver, trustee, custodian, conservator or other similar official for it or
for all or any substantial part of its assets, or any of its Affiliates shall
make a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or (ii) there shall
be commenced against the Borrower in any case, proceeding or other action of a
nature referred to in clause (i) above that (A) results in the entry of an order
for relief or any such adjudication or appointment
<PAGE>
                                                                              26

or (B) remains undismissed, undischarged or unbonded for a period of 60 days; or
(iii) there shall be commenced against the Borrower any case, proceeding or
other action seeking issuance of a warrant of attachment, execution, distraint
or similar process against all or any substantial part of its assets that
results in the entry of an order for any such relief that shall not have been
vacated, discharged, or stayed or bonded pending appeal within 60 days from the
entry thereof; or (iv) the Borrower shall take any action in furtherance of, or
indicating its consent to, approval of, or acquiescence in, any of the acts set
forth in the foregoing clause (i), (ii), or (iii); or (v) the Borrower shall
generally not, or shall be unable to, or shall admit in writing its inability
to, pay its debts as they become due; or

            (g) the Bank shall at any time cease to have a validly perfected,
first priority Lien on the Collateral;

then, and in any such event, (A) if such event is an Event of Default specified
in clause (i) or (ii) of paragraph (f) above with respect to the Borrower,
automatically the Commitments shall immediately terminate and all amounts owing
under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents (including all amounts of
Reimbursement Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then
outstanding Letters of Credit shall have presented the documents required
thereunder) shall immediately become due and payable and (B) if such event is
any other Event of Default, the Bank may take any or all of the following
actions, upon written notice to the Borrower: (i) declare the Commitment to be
terminated forthwith, whereupon the Commitment of the Bank to renew, amend or
issue any Letters of Credit shall forthwith terminate immediately; and/or (ii)
declare all amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents
(including all amounts of Reimbursement Obligations, whether or not the
beneficiaries of the then outstanding Letters of Credit shall have presented the
documents required thereunder) to be immediately due and payable; and/or (iii)
terminate any Letter of Credit which may be terminated in accordance with its
terms and/or (iv) charge, set-off and otherwise apply all or any part of the
Collateral against unpaid Obligations then due or which subsequently become due.
With respect to all Letters of Credit with respect to which presentment for
honor shall not have occurred at the time of an acceleration pursuant to this
Section 8, amounts held in the Cash Collateral Account shall be applied by the
Bank to the payment of drafts drawn under such Letters of Credit, and the unused
portion thereof after all such Letters of Credit have expired or been fully
drawn upon, if any, shall be applied to repay other obligations of the Borrower
hereunder and under the other Credit Documents. After all such Letters of Credit
shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, all Reimbursement Obligations shall
have been satisfied and all other obligations of the Borrower hereunder and
under the other Credit Documents shall have been paid in full, the balance, if
any, in the Cash Collateral Account shall be returned to the Borrower (or such
other Person as may be lawfully entitled thereto). Except as expressly provided
above in this Section 8, presentment, demand, protest and all other notices of
any kind are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower.

            Section 9. MISCELLANEOUS

            In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under
applicable law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such rights,
upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Bank is hereby authorized at any
time or from time to time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice

thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against and on
account of the Obligations and liabilities of the Borrower to the Bank under
this Agreement or under any of the other Credit Documents, and all other claims
of any nature or description arising out of or connected with this Agreement or
any other Credit Document, irrespective of whether the Bank shall have made any
demand hereunder and although such Obligations, liabilities or claims, or any of
them, shall be contingent or unmatured.

            9.02. Notices.

            Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other

at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice
to the other parties hereto and, as to each other party, at such other address
as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the Borrower. No
such notice or communication shall be effective until received.

            9.03. Expenses; Indemnity.

            (a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
incurred by the Bank and its Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges
and disbursements of counsel for the Bank, in connection with the preparation,
negotiation and administration of the Credit Documents or any amendments,
modifications or waivers of the provisions thereof (whether or not the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses paid to third parties by the Bank 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

negotiations in respect of such Letters of Credit.

            (b) The Borrower shall indemnify the Bank and each Affiliate of the
Bank (each such Person being called an "Indemnitee") against, and hold each

<PAGE>
                                                                              28

charges and disbursements of any expert witness or counsel for any Indemnitee,
incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection
with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any
agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties
hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby; (ii) any Letter of Credit or the use of the
proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Bank 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 transfer, sale, delivery, surrender, or endorsement of any Drawing
Document at any time(s) held by any Indemnitee in connection with any Letter of
Credit; (iv) any independent undertakings issued by the beneficiary of any
Letter of Credit; (v) any unauthorized, fraudulent or improper Instructions or
error in computer transmission; (vi) the acts or omissions, whether rightful or
wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto governmental or
regulatory authority or cause or event beyond the control of such Indemnitee;
(vii) any actual or alleged presence or release of hazardous materials on or

or any environmental liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries; or (viii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation,
investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on
contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a
party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be
available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
related expenses 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.

            (c) To the 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 or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby,
the transactions contemplated hereby, or Letter of Credit or the use of the
proceeds thereof.

            (d) All amounts due under this Section 9.03 shall be payable not
later than 15 days after written demand therefor.

            9.04. Benefit of Agreement.

            This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and
be enforceable by the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto;
provided that the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or
obligations hereunder or under any other Credit Document without the prior
written consent of the Bank. The Bank may at any time grant participations in
any or all of its rights and/or obligations hereunder to another financial
institution; provided that in the case of any such participation, the
participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other
Credit Documents (the participant's rights against such Bank in respect of such
participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Bank in
favor of the participant relating thereto) and all amounts payable by the
Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Bank had not sold such
participation, except that the participant shall be entitled to receive the
additional amounts under Section 2.12 to, and only to, the extent that such Bank
would be entitled to such benefits if the participation had not
<PAGE>
                                                                              29

been entered into or sold; and provided further, that the Bank shall not
transfer, grant or assign any participation under which the participant shall
have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any other
Credit Document except to the extent such amendment or waiver would (i) reduce
the principal amount thereof, or increase such participant's participating
interest in any Commitment over the amount thereof then in effect (it being
understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory
reduction in the Commitment shall not constitute a change in the terms of any
Commitment and that an increase in any Commitment shall be permitted without the
consent of any participant if such participant's participation is not increased
as a result thereof) or (ii) permit the assignment or transfer by the Borrower
of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement except in accordance
with the terms hereof and thereof.

            9.05. No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.

            No failure or delay on the part of the Bank in exercising any
right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document and no
course of dealing between the Borrower or the Bank shall operate as a waiver
thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or
privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege
hereunder or thereunder. The rights, powers and remedies herein or in any other
Credit Document expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any
rights, powers or remedies which the Bank would otherwise have. No notice to or
demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or
further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a
waiver of the rights of the Bank to any other or further action in any
circumstances without notice or demand.

            9.06. Calculations; Computations.

            All computations of interest in respect of Fees and interest
hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number
of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the
period for which such interest or Fees are payable.

            9.07. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Venue; Waiver of
Jury Trial.

            (a) This Agreement and the other Credit Documents and the rights
and obligations of the parties hereunder and thereunder shall be construed in
accordance with and be governed by the law of the State of New York. Any legal
action or proceeding between the Borrower and any other party to this Agreement
or any other Credit Document arising out of or with respect to this Agreement or
any other Credit Document must be brought in the state courts of the State of
New York located in the County of New York or in the courts of the United States
for the Southern District of New York, and the Borrower submits to the
non-exclusive jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of any such suit,
action or proceeding or judgment. Each party to this Agreement irrevocably
consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section
9.02, such service to become effective 30 days after such mailing. Nothing in
this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve
process in any other manner permitted by law.

            (b) Each of the Bank and the Borrower hereby irrevocably waives, to
the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it
may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any of the aforesaid actions
or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any other
Credit Document brought in the courts referred to in Section 9.07(a) and hereby
further irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court
that any such action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in
an inconvenient forum.

            (c) Each of the Borrower and the Bank waives, to the fullest extent
it may legally and effectively do so, any right it may have to jury trial in any
legal proceeding directly or indirectly arising out of or relating to each of
the Borrower's and the Bank's rights and obligations under this Agreement or
transactions contemplated hereby (whether based on contract, tort or any other
theory).

            9.08. Confidentiality.

            The Bank shall hold, and shall cause its participants and
prospective participants, if any, to agree to hold, all non-public information
obtained pursuant to the requirements of any Credit Document which has been
identified as such by the Borrower in accordance with its customary procedure
for handling confidential information of such nature and in accordance with safe
and sound banking practices and in any event may make disclosure reasonably
required by any bona fide assignee, transferee or participant or as legally
required or reasonably requested by any governmental agency or representative
thereof or pursuant to legal process.

            9.09. Counterparts.

            This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and
by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so
executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together
constitute one and the same instrument. A set of counterparts executed by all
the parties hereto shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Bank.

            9.10. Headings Descriptive.

            The headings of the several sections and subsections of this
Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the
meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.

            9.11. Amendment or Waiver.

            Neither this Agreement nor any other Credit Document nor any terms
hereof or thereof may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated unless such
amendment, waiver, discharge or termination is in writing signed by the Bank
and, in the case of any amendment, by the Borrower.

            9.12. Survival.

                 AMENDED AND RESTATED CASH COLLATERAL AGREEMENT

            AMENDED AND RESTATED CASH COLLATERAL AGREEMENT, dated as of November
21, 2005 (this "Agreement"), between Space Systems/Loral, Inc. (the "Pledgor"),
a corporation existing under the laws of the State of Delaware and successor in
interest to the DIP Pledgor referenced below, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.
(formerly known as JPMorgan Chase Bank) (the "Bank").

                               W I T N E S S E T H

            WHEREAS, pursuant to the Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement,
dated as of April 2, 2004 (as heretofore amended, supplemented or otherwise
modified, the "Existing L/C Agreement"), between Space Systems/Loral, Inc., as a
debtor and a debtor-in-possession (the "DIP Pledgor"), and the Bank, the Bank
has issued Letters of Credit at the request of, and for the account of, the DIP
Pledgor;

            WHEREAS, pursuant to the Cash Collateral Agreement, dated as of
April 2, 2004 (as heretofore amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the
"Existing Cash Collateral Agreement"), between the DIP Pledgor and the Bank, the
DIP Pledgor granted to the Bank a first priority perfected security interest in
the Collateral and a Superpriority Claim (each as defined in the Existing L/C
Agreement) pursuant to Section 364(c) of the Bankruptcy Code to secure repayment
of the obligations under the Existing L/C Agreement; and

            WHEREAS, the Bank and the DIP Pledgor have agreed to amend and
restate the Existing L/C Agreement in its entirety and, concurrently therewith,
amend and restate the Existing Cash Collateral Agreement in its entirety such
that the Liens granted to the Bank will not be cancelled or discharged as a
result of the occurrence of the Plan Effective Date and such Liens will continue
to secure the obligations of the Borrower under the Amended and Restated Letter
of Credit Reimbursement Agreement, dated as of even date herewith (as amended,
supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Reimbursement
Agreement");

            NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above premises, the Pledgor
and the Bank hereby agree to amend and restate the Existing Cash Collateral
Agreement in its entirety as follows:

            Section 1. DEFINITIONS. Capitalized terms used herein but not
otherwise defined shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Reimbursement
Agreement.

            Section 2. PLEDGE AND ASSIGNMENT. As security for the payment of all
Obligations of the Pledgor in respect of the Letters of Credit, under the
Reimbursement Agreement and under this Agreement, the Pledgor
<PAGE>
hereby irrevocably assigns and pledges to the Bank, and hereby grants to the
Bank, a first priority security interest in (i) the Pledgor's account, number
323-351832 (for credit to Space Systems Loral Inc.), with the Bank at its
offices at 270 Park Avenue, 20th Floor, New York, NY 10017 (hereinafter called
the "Cash Collateral Account") which Cash Collateral Account shall be under the
sole dominion and control of the Bank, (ii) all cash from time to time deposited
into the Cash Collateral Account, (iii) all Investments (as defined in Section 5
hereof) and certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time representing
or evidencing the Cash Collateral Account and (iv) to the extent not covered by
clauses (i) through (iii) above, all proceeds and products of any and all of the
foregoing (collectively, the "Collateral"). Cash, Investments, security
entitlements or other investments held or carried in the Cash Collateral Account
shall not be available for use by the Pledgor or any of its subsidiaries or
Affiliates for any purpose.

            Section 3. REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT.

            (a) The Pledgor hereby agrees that if any amount payable by it in
respect of the Obligations is not paid when due (whether upon demand, at stated
maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), the Bank may, by giving five (5)
Business Days' notice to the Pledgor: (i) charge, set-off and otherwise apply
all or any part of the Cash Collateral against the Obligations then due (or
which become due) or any part thereof or (ii) exercise in respect of the
Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or
otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party under
the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of New York at that time.
Without limiting the generality of clause (ii) above, the Bank may sell, redeem,
collect or otherwise realize on the Collateral or any portion thereof in one or
more parcels at a public or private sale, at its offices or elsewhere, for cash,
on credit or for future delivery and on such other terms as the Bank may deem
commercially reasonable and without notice or demand except to the extent
required by law (and if any such notice may be required by law the Pledgor
agrees that at least 5 Business Days' notice shall constitute reasonable
notification). The Bank shall not be obligated to make any such sale of
Collateral regardless of whether notice of such sale has been given and may
adjourn any such sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place
fixed therefor and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time
and place to which it was so adjourned.

            (b) Any cash held by the Bank as Collateral and all cash proceeds
received by the Bank in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other
realization upon all or any part of the Collateral may, in the discretion of the
Bank, then or at any time thereafter be applied in whole or in part by the Bank
against all or any part of the Obligations then due (or which become due) in
such order as the Bank may elect. Any surplus of such cash or cash proceeds held
by the Bank and remaining after payment in full of all of the Obligations after
expiry or termination of all Letters of Credit shall be paid over to the Pledgor
or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

            Section 4. MAINTAINING THE CASH COLLATERAL ACCOUNT.

            (a) The Pledgor hereby further agrees that so long as any Letters
of Credit or Obligations are outstanding, it will deposit and maintain at all
times an amount in the Cash Collateral Account equal to (x) in the case of
Letters of Credit or Obligations denominated in Dollars at least one hundred
five percent (105%) of the LC Exposure in respect of such Letters of

                                       2
<PAGE>
Credit, and (y) in the case of Letters of Credit denominated in an Alternative
Currency at least one hundred ten percent (110%) of the LC Exposure in respect
of such Letters of Credit.

            (b) If at any time the Collateral maintained in the Cash Collateral
Account in respect of any outstanding Alternative Currency Letters of Credit is
less than 110% of the then Dollar Equivalent of the LC Exposure relating to such
Alternative Currency Letters of Credit, then the Pledgor shall, within three (3)
Business Days after receipt of notice from the Bank delivered in accordance with
Section 3.02 of the Reimbursement Agreement, deposit an amount in Dollars in the
Cash Collateral Account equal to the amount required such that the Collateral in
the Cash Collateral Account is not less than 110% of the Dollar Equivalent of
the LC Exposure relating to such Alternative Currency Letters of Credit. In the
event that the Collateral maintained in the Cash Collateral Account in respect
of any outstanding Alternative Currency Letters of Credit is more than 110% of
the then Dollar Equivalent of the LC Exposure relating to such Alternative
Currency Letter of Credit, or in the event that the Collateral maintained in the
Cash Collateral Account in respect of any other Letter of Credit is more than
105% of the LC Exposure relating to such other Letter of Credit, so long as no
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Bank will, no
more often than one time per each fiscal quarter, upon request from the
Borrower, transfer such excess, as determined by the Bank in Good Faith, to an
account of the Borrower.

            Section 5. INVESTING AMOUNTS IN THE ACCOUNTS.

            If requested by the Pledgor, the Bank will, from time to time, (a)
invest amounts on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account in such deposits,
commercial paper and securities (the "Investments") as the Pledgor may select
and the Bank may approve in its reasonable discretion and (b) invest interest or
dividends paid on the Investments and reinvest other proceeds of such
Investments which may mature or be sold in new deposits, commercial paper or
securities as the Pledgor may select and the Bank may approve in its discretion.
Interest and proceeds which are not invested or reinvested shall be deposited
and held in the Cash Collateral Account; provided that the Pledgor may at any
time or from time to time request release of such interest and proceeds in
accordance with Section 4 hereof. The Bank will only approve Investments in
which it can obtain a first-priority, perfected security interest, which may
require the Pledgor to execute, and the Pledgor hereby agrees to execute
promptly, necessary documents.

            Section 6. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

            The Pledgor hereby represents to the Bank that: (a) the execution,
delivery and performance by it of this Agreement have been duly authorized by

enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at

                                       3
<PAGE>
law), and creates in favor of the Bank a perfected, first priority security
interest in the Collateral, enforceable in accordance with its terms, (d) no
consent of any other person (including, without limitation, stockholders or
creditors of the Pledgor or any of its subsidiaries or of any parent company of
the Pledgor), and no consent, license, permit, approval or authorization of,
exemption by, or registration, filing or declaration with, any governmental
authority is required in connection with the execution, delivery, performance,
validity or enforceability of this Agreement by or against the Pledgor, other
than consents that have already been obtained and which remain in full force and
effect, (e) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement will not
result in the creation or imposition of any lien (other than the Liens in favor
of the Bank under this Agreement) on any of its properties or assets pursuant to
the provisions of any contractual obligation, and (f) there is no litigation,
suit, action, investigation, inquiry or other proceeding presently pending which
could reasonably be expected to affect the value of the Collateral or, to the

subsidiaries or any of their properties or assets, by or before any arbitrator
or any governmental authority and no preliminary or permanent injunction or
order by a state or Federal court has been entered in connection with this
Agreement.

            Section 7. COVENANTS.

            The Pledgor covenants and agrees with the Bank that:

            (a) The Pledgor will not (1) sell, assign, transfer, exchange, or
otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, the Collateral, or
(2) create, incur or permit to exist any Lien or option in favor of, or any
claim of any person with respect to, any of the Collateral, or any interest
therein, except for the Liens created by this Agreement.

            (b) The Pledgor will maintain the Liens created by this Agreement as
a first priority, perfected security interest and defend the right, title and
interest of the Bank in and to the Collateral against the claims and demands of
all persons whomsoever. At any time and from time to time, upon the written
request of the Bank, and at the sole expense of the Pledgor, the Pledgor will
promptly and duly execute and deliver such further instruments and documents and
take such further actions as the Bank reasonably may request for the purposes of
obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights
and powers herein granted.

            Section 8. WAIVER.

            The Pledgor hereby waives presentation of any instrument or
document evidencing any indebtedness or liability to the Bank, demand of
payment, protest and notice of non-payment or protest.

            Section 9. EXPENSES.

            The Pledgor further agrees that it will pay the Bank upon written
demand any and all reasonable expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses
of its counsel) which the Bank may incur in connection with the exercise or
enforcement of any of the rights of the Bank hereunder.

            Section 10. CONTINUING SECURITY INTEREST.

                                       4
<PAGE>
            This Agreement shall create a continuing Lien on the Collateral
and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the payment in full of the
Obligations and the expiration or cancellation of all outstanding Letters of
Credit, (b) be binding upon the Pledgor and its successors and assigns (provided
that any assignment by the Pledgor may be made only with the prior written
consent of the Bank), and (c) inure to the benefit of the Bank and its
successors, transferees and assigns. Upon the payment in full of the Obligations
and the expiration or cancellation of all outstanding Letters of Credit, the
Pledgor shall be entitled to the return, upon its request and at its expense, of
such of the Collateral as shall not have been applied pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the Liens created
hereby in favor of the Bank shall continue from and after the Plan Effective
Date to constitute continuing, perfected first priority security interests in
the Collateral, as security for the Obligations. Accordingly, effective on the
Plan Effective Date, the Pledgor confirms that it has granted, and does hereby
grant, to the Bank, a security interest in all right, title and interest of the
Pledgor in and to the Collateral as security for the Obligations.

            Section 11. FURTHER ASSURANCES.

            At the cost and expense of the Borrower, the Borrower shall
execute and file all such further documents and instruments, and perform such
other acts, as the Bank may request to maintain the Liens granted to the Bank in
connection with this Agreement and the Reimbursement Agreement and to maintain
the priority of such Liens granted pursuant to this Agreement and the
Reimbursement Agreement. Pursuant to the New York UCC and any other applicable
law, the Borrower authorizes the Bank to file or record financing statements and
other filing or recording documents or instruments with respect to the
Collateral without the signature of the Borrower in such form and in such
offices the Bank reasonably determines appropriate to perfect the security
interests of the Bank under this Agreement and the Reimbursement Agreement. A
photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement shall be sufficient as a
financing statement or other filing or recording document or instrument for
filing or recording in any jurisdiction.

            Section 12. AMENDMENTS, ETC.

            No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement nor
consent to departure by the Pledgor herefrom shall in any event by effective
unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Bank, and then such waiver
or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific
purpose for which given.

            Section 13. NOTICES.

            All notices, requests and demands to or upon the Bank or the
Pledgor to be effective shall be in writing (including telecopier) or by
telephone (but if by telephone, confirmed immediately by telecopier) and shall
be deemed to have been duly given or made (1) when delivered by hand or (2) if
given by mail, when deposited in the mails by certified mail, return receipt
requested, or (3) if by fax or similar electronic transfer, when sent and
receipt has been confirmed, addressed to the Bank or the Pledgor at its address
or transmission number for notices set forth below its signature hereto. The
Bank and the Pledgor may change their

                                       5

addresses and transmission numbers for notices by notice in the manner provided
in this paragraph.

            Section 14. GOVERNING LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; JURY TRIAL.

(a) This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall
be construed in accordance with and be governed by the law of the State of New
York. Any legal action or proceeding between the Pledgor and any other party to
this Agreement arising out of or with respect to this Agreement may be brought
in the state courts of the State of New York, located in the County of New York,
or in the courts of the United States for the Southern District of New York, and
the Pledgor submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of such courts for the
purpose of any such suit, action or proceeding or judgment. Each party to this
Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for
notices in Section 13, such service to become effective 30 days after such
mailing. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this
Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. Nothing herein
shall affect the right of the Bank to bring any legal action or proceeding
against the Pledgor in any court having jurisdiction with respect thereto.

            (b) Each of the Bank and the Pledgor hereby irrevocably waives, to
the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it
may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any of the aforesaid actions
or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Agreement brought in
the courts referred to in Section 14(a). Each of the Plegdor and the Bank hereby
further irrevocably waive and agree not to plead or claim in any such court that
any such action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an
inconvenient forum.

            (c) Each of the Pledgor and the Bank waives, to the fullest extent
it may legally and effectively do so, any right it may have to jury trial in any
legal proceeding directly or indirectly arising out of or relating to each of
the Pledgor's and the Bank's rights and obligations under this Agreement or
transactions contemplated hereby (whether based on contract, tort or any other
theory).

            Section 15. COUNTERPARTS.

            This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute
one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature
page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually
executed counterpart of this Agreement.
